Online headline: "Clinton reveals troubling issue she wasn't expecting" -- "wasn't expecting"? Yeah.. that mainscream media as well as Democrat voters would hold her lying against her...

Instant repeat headline plus story: "Clinton reveals troubling issue she wasn't expecting * Clinton was taken aback by "the amount of concern that people have about addiction and mental health" * "I really wasn't expecting that, and I didn't know that it would be top of mind for so many people."" -- Good grief.. they are concerned about G.I. JILLary's mental health and addiction to lies!

From above story: "Clinton,who leads nationally by large margins but faces a closer race in Iowa and New Hampshire, introduced a $10 billion plan to combat America's "deadly epidemic" in September, which includes state and federal partnerships and treatment-focused solutions for addicts." -- As Reagan would inject, "Well there she goes again".. $10 Billion "sounds" like a BIG number when she throws it around, but when you parse it, that's about $33.00 a person in America (or about 13 minutes with a professional charging $150.00 per hour).

Now, Bernie is talking really big numbers.. free healthcare for all.. Currently, our GNP is about $17 TRILLION (17,000,000,000,000.00). Healthcare is currently about 16.7% of our GNP ($2,833,333,333,333.00). What this means is with 300,000,000 people in America, we all will pay taxes of $9,444.00 (family of 4 would be $37,776.00) for Bernie's (or JILLary's) "free healthcare. That's based on last year,, but what happens next will bankrupt of next year.. our 300,000,000 people will want 'free healthcare" every day. Every insecure person will want "free plastic surgery", every teen will want "free acne healthcare", bald men will want "free hair transplants".. get the picture.. Hey, and the tax figures are covering ONLY the "free healthcare". Oh.. and G.I. JILLary's $10 BILLION for "addiction and mental health"...instead of one 13 minute session, 300,000,000 American will be camped out on psychiatrists' doorstep for daily  hourly sessions to ask why did they ever vote for a Democrat...

Trump may get his "coups de' media". By pulling out of the Republican debates, media will flock to hom during and after the debate to get his remarks on the "pot shots" other candidates take at him.. He will be able to point out what happens when his leadership is not there to keep folks inline and on issue.

Online headline: "Ted Cruz challenges Donald Trump to 'mano-a-mano' debate" -- Hmmm.. it's already started... Cruz is the first to want to take on Trump solo so they don't have to share a stage with establishment Republicans or "lo

Mexico Citizens Council for Public Security. has posted a list of the 50 most violent cities in the world.. Latin America lays claim to 41 of these, and Brazil specific has 21.. nice to know on the eve of the 2016 Brazil Olympic Games. There were 4 US cities that made the list.. actually, Chicago is not one of them, but other Democrat lead cities with Constitutionally challengeable gun laws, like New Orleans, Detroit, Baltimoe, and St Louis made it. Baltimore and St Louis made the Top Twenty with 55 and 59, respectfully, violent crimes per 100K of people. Chicago must be resentful at having so many other American cities stealing it's thunder (didn't make the Top 10... but Atlanta did), so Chicago is trying harder.. Already this year, (through Jan 25, with 6 more days to count), Chicago has had 46 murders on its streets which sets a record for January in any year this century.

From the "can we leave out pertinent details and still call this journalism" department - Online story: "MILWAUKEE (AP) — A Milwaukee man faces federal charges after he allegedly purchased two machine guns from undercover agents as part of a plan to attack a Masonic temple. * Court documents show federal prosecutors charged 23-year-old Samy Mohamed Hamzeh on Tuesday with unlawfully possessing a machine gun and unlawfully receiving and possessing firearms not registered to him. It wasn't immediately clear whether he had an attorney. * According to an FBI affidavit, agents were tipped off in September that Hamzeh planned to travel to Israel in October to attack Israeli soldiers and citizens in the West Bank. He abandoned those plans due to "family, financial and logistic reasons," the affidavit said, but refocused his efforts on a domestic attack. * Hamzeh discussed his plans extensively with two FBI informants. The affidavit said the FBI started recording his conversations with the informants in October. * Hamzeh and the two informants traveled to a gun range on Jan. 19 and practiced with a pistol. Afterward they took a tour of a Masonic temple in Milwaukee. The affidavit does not name the temple. Dean Puschnig, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Greg Haanstad, declined to identify it." -- Good grief.. a  self-proclaimed Muslim man named Samy Mohamed Hamzeh buys two automatic weapons  with the intent to shooting up a Masonic Temple and not one mention  that the Masons are a historical Christian based organization..  We need Trump!

Online headline: "Fla. man planned to radicalize, dress like the Joker and murder boss,  * A Florida man who allegedly confessed to pledging “allegiance to Allah” and plotting a mass shooting while dressed like a comic-book villain will only need to post $5,000 bond and stay on house arrest as he awaits trial. * Enrique Dominguez, 20, was arrested Friday and charged with aggravated assault, the Miami Herald reported. * Earlier this month, Dominguez allegedly told a co-worker at bicycle part distributor J&B Importers that he’d purchased a shotgun to murder his boss. He then showed the co-worker ISIS execution videos, according to an arrest report reviewed by the Herald." -- Good grief.. here's another Muslim attack plan that gets treated like it's a "regular" work place violence case. Note that his boss's name was not mention.. must be because it could easily be identified or associated with either a Jewish or Christian belief.

Was watching Pocahontas 2 with my granddaughter when it occurred to me that my ancestors may have know Pocahontas as well as Sacagawea. My Gray relatives were in Jamestown in 1616, and Meriwether Lewis had Sacagawea as a guide.

Online story: "In a gamble to fix a dysfunctional school ahead of a potential state takeover, Atlanta Public Schools Superintendent Meria Carstarphen merged one of the city’s best high schools with one of its worst. * Combining Carver School of Technology, where about half of students graduate, with Carver Early College, where nearly every student goes on to a four-year college, tests the theory that threatening schools with extreme sanctions leads to rapid changes for the better — the theory behind Gov. Nathan Deal’s Opportunity School District plan. If voters approve that plan this fall, the state could take control of schools like the School of Technology." --  This old adage does a lot to explain liberals', even RINOs "good intention" failures: "If you stick a glove into a bucket of mud and stir it up, the mud does not get "glovier".

L-E headline: "COLUMBUS COUNCIL * Council wants review of attorney fees * Members claim a lack of information about city lawsuits" -- Hmmm.. now, tomorrow's headline should read, "Columbus Citizens want review of Council".
