Online headline/story: "Clinton turns over personal email server to DOJ * A spokesman for the 2016 presidential hopeful said on Tuesday she has 'pledged to cooperate' in the probe of her email usage as secretary of state. * Hillary Rodham Clinton will turn over the personal email server she used while serving as secretary of state to the Justice Department, her campaign spokesman said Tuesday." -- Good grief.. what double-speak... she'll "turn over the personal email server she used while serving as secretary of state"... and to the DOJ"... sorta like Br'er Rabbit volunteering to jump into the Briar Patch by himself.. Does anyone believe that the harddrives and backup systems will be the original ones? Does anyone believe the DOJ will actually investigate?

---
Personal thoughts on above: Hillewinsky is desperate.. and is trying to circumvent Biden from jumping into the thick of things.. she can survive Bernie... possibly even Biden, but with Biden in the race, she cannot establish/retain her bulletproof status with mainscream media.

---
Online story: "The police chief in the Dallas suburb of Arlington says an officer who's been fired over the fatal shooting of an unarmed Texas college football player should not have approached the 19-year-old burglary suspect alone. * Johnson said Miller shot Taylor when Taylor began to advance toward the officer. But he said there was no physical contact between the officer and Taylor before Taylor was shot." -- Good grief.. who's going to even want to become a police officer if the officers cannot use personal discernment in protecting their own lives? When a criminal.. especially one caught red-handed in the act, and you have no knowledge of whether he has a concealed weapon or not, and he still advances toward you after you've ordered him to stop/drop, must you assume that he coming at you to surrender himself? No police officer should have to put his own life on the line in this kind of circumstance.

From the "we're going to present half-truth headlines in order to sensationalize a touchy situation" and "the rest of the story" department- HuffPOOPOO "Half-headlie": "Police release video of alleged Ferguson gunman" -- and the secondary/sub headline: "Officials revealed surveillance footage on Tuesday that they say shows Tyrone Harris Jr. shooting at officers before he was critically injured." -- Excuse me.. but how can a man shown on video to be shooting be referred to as an "alleged gunman"? If the video wasn't totally revealing, the sub headline should have read "alleged gunPERSON"!

---
Online story: "True, a cheaper yuan hurts U.S. exporters and likely depresses U.S. inflation, which is already below the annual 2 percent rate the Fed targets" -- While this is "cherry-picked" from a story on the Chinese government devaluing its currency, it also conflicts with the US Post Office claims that inflation is the bogey-man for why it lost $586,000,000.00 in the 3 Spring months. The US Post Office also claimed transportation costs was another bogery-man although we know fuel costs dropped.

---
Online story: "A White House staffer was arrested late Friday after allegedly shooting a gun at her boyfriend, an officer with the U.S. Capitol Police, during a heated argument, authorities said." -- Hmmm.. this basically shows how little the White House understands about guns, and subsequently, the 2nd Amendment.. I may fire my gun, but I "shoot" bullets, not guns....

---
Online story: "Five employees with the U.S. Government Accountability Office have been indicted on charges of illegally getting reduced-price school lunches for their children in Prince George's County, Md. * The employees have been charged with theft, fraud and filing false applications * County State's Attorney Angela Alsobrooks says the full price for a lunch in public schools is $2.65; the reduced price is 40 cents. She estimates the employees' children got about $11,500 in reduced-price lunches." -- Hmmm... and probably just the "tip of the iceburg...lettuce". Of course, they would probably get away with it here as student word is enough to get the reduced meals.. I remember my children being asked to participate when they were at Columbus High... seems that schools get extra funding for higher percentages of reduced/free meals students get..

---
Online headline/story: "71-year-old Pittsburgh woman shot in leg while knitting * Pittsburgh police say a 71-year-old woman was wounded while knitting inside her home on the city's North Side." -- Hmmm.. wanna bet Diane Feinstein introduces a new law to the Senate banning knitting inside one's home?

---
Online headline: "Prisoners detail horrors in jail after inmates' breakout" -- Hmmm.. what should we do about tis.. how about modeling EVERY prison after NY's Clinton Correctional facility... maybe criminal relapse would become a thing of the past if prisoners didn't have a nice time in prison.

---
Online headline: "Consumer Reports' Best New Car Brands" -- Hmmm... Buick was named number 7 on the list of 10...sadly, none of the other names of cars that originated in America made the list.

---
HuffPOOPOO story: "The Obama administration doesn't plan to invite Cuban dissidents to Secretary of State John Kerry's historic flag-raising at the U.S. Embassy in Havana on Friday, vividly illustrating how U.S. policy is shifting focus from the island's opposition to its single-party government. Instead, Kerry intends to meet more quietly with prominent activists later in the day, officials said. * The Cuban opposition has occupied the center of U.S. policy toward the island since the nations cut diplomatic relations in 1961. The Cuban government labels its domestic opponents as traitorous U.S. mercenaries. * As the two countries have moved to restore relations, Cuba has almost entirely stopped meeting with American politicians who visit dissidents during trips to Havana." -- Hmmm.. life imitates farts... uh, arts.......This must have a name... how about the "Kerrynitis".. you know like him not wanting to meet with dissidents like Congress or Israel while he negotiated with Iran..

---
L-E story: "A teenager who tried to steal limited-edition Air Jordan sneakers from a mall shopper who fatally shot the 17-year-old's accomplice was sentenced Tuesday to two years in prison. * The teen was sentenced on adult convictions of reckless homicide and grand theft in a Dec. 20 fatal shooting outside the Dayton Mall. The Associated Press is not naming the boy because he is a juvenile." -- What is it about Air Jordans that shush the L-E down about naming names? .. Last week here in Columbus, a 14 year old was beaten and his $200.00 (now this is a REAL crime) shoes stolen.. now this about another man defending himself when another tried to rob him of his Air Jordans. Maybe we shout ENCOURAGE California Democrat Senator Diane Feinstein to initiate a new bill in Congress to ban Air Jordans so street violence will drop.

---
L-E headline: "Hillary Clinton to visit southern Nevada next week" -- 3 visits to Nevada in 4 months? Wonder if she has a gambling prob or trysting with Harry Reid?

From the above.. did you notice the definitive aspect of not giving away tax dollars to non-profits? Surely this should be a regulation in our school and city governments as well.. So far this year, City Council has given local non-profits more than a Million Dollars in "grants"..

---
You know, since there are enough open spots in our other schools, and Spencer is said to be in such dangerous shape that "we" have build a new one, why are students assigned there this year? While we asking, why is it being replaced anyway since we have enough unused classrooms (and then some) to consolidate them into existing facilities.

---
You know...the MCSB should know by the growth of private and home school attendance growth that public education is rift with problems, and it's going to take courage and due diligence of all nine of the board members to change courses..not just Frank Myers and John Thomas.

---
It's almost demoralizing to hear black leaders blame economic woes in the black communities on the lack of educational opportunities . Take our town, and it's probably the same in most towns in America..we spend more money on public education on 32,000 students and 6,000 employees than the City spends on providing the other aspects for over 200,000 citizens. Just because a student won't take advantage of an educational opportunity is not the fault of others .

---
Excuse me, but how do college/student loan programs actually help students? Let"s face it, the influx of "easy money" literally boosts the costs of a college education as devalued money inflates salaries of professors and cuts down on fiduciary responsibility of college administrators.

---
Bill Clinton must be the most hypocritical man in the world..he smiles just as big patting Hillewinsky on the back as he does patting interns on the backside.

---
More Hillewinsky troubles...Hillewinsky is being challenged by "for profit" colleges because she's talking against the them as she takes their donations without reservation. Hey, student loan debtors, you're paying interest on donations to Hillewinsky!

---
You know...it's almost ironic that Bleep Veep Biden, who's chief value to the Democrats was that his next-in-command spot pretty much insured Obamageddon's safety, is now being looked at as a better choice than Hillewinsky. Truthfully, he is...and that's very very sad.

Yesterday, going through a cabinet, I "found" a Captain Kangaroo cup that I had bought for my nephews/nieces to use many years ago. I enjoyed watching Captain Kangaroo with them, as he reinforced the values necessary for a stable society. I then grabbed by phone and searched Netflix and HuluPlus to see if either carried Captain Kangaroo so I could show it to my granddaughter. Neither one had anything about the Captain.. Guess "values" are politically incorrect in mainscream media.

---
Trump's proposal to go into ISIS countries and "knock them out, cut them off, and take the oil" is a shade overboard, but there's nothing wrong with making those countries think that this is not only an American option, but a possibility if they don't go back into their caves.

L-E story: "The city of Columbus is considering ways to restrict parking in the neighborhoods around Columbus High School in response to residents’ complaints about student parking clogging the streets. * Director of EngineeringDonna Newman presented a proposal to Columbus Council Tuesday morning, suggesting new solutions to an old problem. * “This is not new,” Newman said. “This is something that’s been going on for years. * Mayor Teresa Tomlinson said she had spoken to school board Chairman Rob Varner, who told her that last week’s meeting was the first he and the superintendent had heard of the issue" -- "first he (Varner) and the susperintendent had heard of the issue..WHAT BS.. Lewis may have an argument because he would have any protestors silenced, but Varner has been a Board member for years, and parking was a nightmare in that area for the last 10 years as I have had children who drove to CHS and the CPD issued parking citations to prove it.

---
Jonathan Gruber triple-double extra stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": "By the very act of calling a Democrat a socialist or a communist, Republicans openly admit that they are, in fact, fascists." -- Good grief.. this just illustrates how little liberals understand that the form of our government is a "Limited Republic" and that the basic guarantor of our Constitutional rights is a capitalist economy.. Democrats just beg to be enslaved again.

---
L-E's "Thought for Today": “The secret to life is meaningless unless you discover it yourself.” — From “Of Human Bondage” by W. Somerset Maugham (1874-1965)." -- You can bet Democrats are issuing orders to have this stricken from all school textbooks. I defies every ideal of the Democratic Party platform.

---
Republicans objecting to Trump's participation in the process might want to see who else is supporting this.. Democrats... Democrats know that if the Republicans put up a candidate with Trump's beliefs and machismo. Hillewinsky doesn't have a chance.

---
L-E story: " The Athens-Clarke County District Attorney’s Office has filed a felony theft charge against a Virginia man accused of obtaining in-state tuition rates for his daughter while she attended the University of Georgia." -- Hmmm.. and why didn't he just use the White House defense that a college ID cards establishes residency just as it does to vote?

---
L-E story: "Most corporate naming experts say Google’s decision to reorganize its businesses under a new holding company called “Alphabet” is close to letter perfect." --- Hmmm. unless Campbell's files a copywrite suit to keep Google from using "Alphabet Goop".
