You know, there's one question that interests every voter this year... is there a presidential hopeful that doesn't have a child or sibling that may run on his/her coattails in a future election?

Online headline: "Obama rule for power plants to compel steeper emissions cuts" -- Hmm.. guess what.. your power bill is going to soar, and businesses will renew their programs to cut back production in America.

---
Instant repeat - Online headline: "Obama rule for power plants to compel steeper emissions cuts" -- Pretty soon, power plant omissions may hit "zero".... as businesses close American manufacturing plants, and power plants have to go out of business.

---
Jonathan Gruber ultimately stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": "Which organization has killed more Americans, ISIS or the NRA gun lobby?" -- It's stupidity like this that prolongs misery on the streets.. The NRA proudly supports strict gun laws governing the illegal possession and abuse of guns, especially by convicted felons and illegal aliens. Too bad the DOJ and Democrats protect these groups.

---
Conversely, a "get's it" L-E "soundoff": "We don’t need more gun control. We need more nut control." -- Hmmm.. and a good place to start on "nut control" is with the above LIV "soundoffer".

---
L-E headline: "Kerry in Qatar to ease Arab concerns about Iran nuke deal" -- Good luck with that...

---
Random thought: After Obamageddon's "Apology Tour", and Hillewinsky's tour as Secretary of Stank, can you imagine the lack of confidence the Arab world will have in the ability.. no... in America's capability, to be the ally who's mere presence discourages Mid-Eastern turmoil?

---
The L-E stages Columbus' largest bridal show this coming Sunday...a day full of Fashions Shows, Bridal Games ad Giveaways is promised.. I wonder if the L-E has thought about the changes that the US Supreme Court ruling will inject into the festivities? Changes already include charging brides (of both sexes) and guests for admission to the facility, but we could see men wearing dresses and women wearing tuxedos in the fashion shows... oh.. and coed bridal games. Hey, this could be fun.

---
L-E headline: "Some Americans refuse to give up on Confederate flag" -- Hmmm.. you know..aybe John Kerry could be a better negotiator here than in Iran.. I'd bet the legal Confederate Flag wavers would be willing to put them aside if Kerry can get illegal gun owners/users to give their guns.

---
Have you thought about the folly of American Flag companies saying they are going to stop making Confederate flags? I imagine the Chinese flag manufacturers are celebrating as they gear up production at higher prices.

---
L-E headline: "Body of autistic 3-year-old pulled from Lake Tobesofkee in Macon ...." -- This is the third such loss we have experienced in GA in the last couple of weeks.... again, a 3-year old near water with no personal floating device or attentive attendee within hands length distance. Wake up parents!

L-E story: " Many Atlanta Braves season-ticket holders with lower-level seats between the dugouts at Turner Field will have to pay three times as much to sit in the same location in the team’s new stadium. * Chairman seats, located between the dugouts directly behind the field-hugging SunTrust Club section, are $215 per game ($17,845 per season), while executive seats, which are behind the chairman seats, are $160 per game ($13,280 per season)." -- Hey, those are for a single seat.. pairs and full boxes are priced accordingly.. As "we speak". I'm looking at one of my Dad's memories.. It's a 1961 grandstand ticket stub to a baseball game at Yankee Stadium in which Roger Maris hit two home runs and Mickey mantle hit a solo. Including the 11-cent federal excise tax and the City 6-cent tax, the treasured ticket cost $1.30.

I watched a little golf yesterday, but it wasn't near as satisfying as seeing Nicklaus, Trevino, and Player team up for a 17-under par win on Saturday at the "Greats of Golf" match.
