Online story: "The House has approved legislation tightening controls on travel to the U.S. and requiring visas for anyone who's been in Iraq or Syria in the previous five years.  *  The bill, H.R. 158, was approved 407-19. It takes aim at the "visa waiver" program, which allows citizens of 38 countries to travel to the U.S. without first obtaining a visa. Belgium and France, home to most of the perpetrators of the Paris attacks, are among the participating countries. * The legislation would institute changes, including the new visa requirement, for citizens of Iraq and Syria or anyone who's traveled to those countries in the previous five years." -- "407-19"? By the numbers.. 242 Republicans and 165 Democrats voted for the bill. Of note is that all the "NAY" votes were cast by Democrats.. By Name/staete: Farr/CA, Bass/CA, Takano/CA, Waters/CA, Wilson.FL, Johnson/GA, Kildee/MI, Dingle/MI, Conyers/MI, Lawrence/MI, Watson-Coleman/NJ, McDermott/WA, Pocan/WI, Grijalva/AZ, Lee/CA, Hondo/CA, Schakowsky/IL, Ellison/MN, Clarke/NY.  Of note: Hank Johnson of GA.. he's the one that thinks islands can tip-over with too much military equipment parked in one area. Of SPECIAL note: Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Chair of the DNC, voted "YEA".. and hung the 19 "NAYS" out on a limb next November.

Online "headLIE": "Finland Wants to Give Every Citizen $867 a Month" -- Good grief.. Finland wouldn't be doing anything but redistributing other people's money it confiscated by taxation. If Finland wants an economic "spur". it should just make the first $867.00 a year each citizen EARNS be tax exempt. It would be much more effective as Finland wouldn't have to pay a staff to collect, administer, manage, and write checks back to the people.

HuffPOOPOO headline: "10 U.S. Places To Travel Before They Get Famous" --  Hmmm.. Hawaii, Portland, Maine, Destin, FL,, et al...."before they get famous"? Is this the HuffPOOPOO's "Algore Moment" like when he said he created the Internet?

---
HuffPOOPOO story: "Douglas Tompkins, famed environmentalist and co-founder of The North Face, died on Tuesday after a kayaking accident in the Patagonia region of southern Chile." -- In "Patagonia".. how ironic... guess the HuffPOOPOO will lower it's Rainbow Flag until Christmas..... uh, the day before December 26th.

---
HuffPOOPOO headline: "The 2-Party System Is Supposed To Stop People Like Trump. Instead, It's Empowering Them." -- Good grief.. HuffPOOPOO knows that G.I. JILLary cannot get a majority  in a straight up race, but can win the higher plurality if a 3rd Party candidate like Perot , who enabled Bill to win in 1992.

---
Online headline: 'Fox News suspends contributors for vulgar criticism of Obama on live TV" -- Hmmm.. two weeks suspension... maybe they can negotiate it to 3 weeks since it's right here at Christmas time. Can hear both of them "laffing" as they bounce around in "dat dar briar patch"...

---
Online headline:"Unsafe uranium discovered in US drinking water" -- "unsafe uranium"? Hmmm as opposed to "safe uranium"?

---
Josh Earnest.. Obamageddon's Chief Liar, says Trump's remarks disqualify him from serving as president. Good grief, can Josh Earnest keep lying for Obamageddon, and still look himself in the mirror and convince himself he's good for America?

---
When Obamageddon hints at an upward blip in economic data, it's because the blip is caused by law abiding citizen buying guns in record numbers following any of his gun control speeches.

With Elton John appearing here in March, We need to know how many free tickets the Civic Center has to give away to Councilors and others pretty much at the manager's discretion. Let's see all those 1099 forms.

You know, the White House and DOJ have no problem profiling folks they say are profiling Muslims. Sorta ironic.

L-E headline/story: "City gets $78K bill from Darr’s lawyers *  The money is paid out of a city account that is usually set aside for paying court claims and judgments against the city.  *  Councilor Mike Baker questioned whether using that account might one day leave the city without funds for to cover claims and judgments." -- "might one day leave the City without funds to cover claims"? Good grief.. the City is already out of such funds because Mayor TomLYINGson already dips into our Fund Balance to pay for her whim projects..

L-E story: "Columbus Council decided Tuesday to move forward with a vote next week on a proposed Tax Allocation District for the Fort Benning Technology Park project but put the brakes on three other TAD votes — at least temporarily." -- Wait a minute.. isn't this the same project that is included in the 1% T-SPLOST sales tax we're already burdened with?

A Jonathan Gruber incredibly stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff: "You Republican congressmen who continually put American soldiers at risk — fight your own wars and maybe you’ll recognize the almost living and dead who went to battle on your whims." -- Only a Democrat can kick him/herself in the teeth and rear end at the same time... it's the Democrat's failures to follow through in border control and profiling that allowed the San Bernadino Islamic jihadists, the Ft Hood Islamic major, the Chattanooga recruiting center shooters,and the Boston Bomber Brothers to be where they were at the time they started shooting and bombing.

 

---

Jonathan Gruber ultra stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": " Muslims and Republicans have a lot in common: They are highly conservative; anti abortion; anti woman; anti gay; hate science and want religion to rule government." -- Hmmm..other than being on of those described by Reagan as a "lib that knows so much that ain't so", I guess he's grouping all Democrats as being agnostics.

 

---

L-E headline: "Poll: GOP wary of immigration from Mideast" -- Thank God for Republicans! Too bad it shows that Democrats would rather have more San Bernardino shootings than control the infux of Syrian refugees into the US.

 

---

Like I said earlier, no true Syrian refugees will be able to return to Syria,, that's why screening is so necessary,, jihadist posing as "refugees" is a different story.. they don't want to go back.. it would mean they failed in their missions. Now.. could you tell the difference at a port interview/screening?

L-E's "Quotable": “It is strange how often a heart must be broken before the years can make it wise.” - Sara Teasdale American author (1884-1933)" -- Hmmm... you'd think that Democrat voters would be wise by now.. unfortunately Democrat politicians has an inexhaustible supply of Kool-Aid.
