The Oscars is over.. didn't watch any of it.. not in sympathy of any group or cause, but because I disconnected with Hollywood a long time ago.. For the record.. reviewed the "winners" list this AM... There was one movie that my bride and I saw...with our granddaughter, at that, that "won" anything.. "Inside Out".  We did research all the "other winners" when they were showing, but either our research or the "trailers" we saw at the other movies we went didn't look/sound like anything that would entertain us.

From the "when are they gonna learn" department - Online story: "Protesters threw rocks at police in Salt Lake City after officers shot a black teenager who was attacking a man late on Saturday, authorities said. * The Salt Lake City Police Department said he was shot after officers in the downtown Rio Grande area saw two people attacking a male victim with metal objects and ordered the pair to drop their weapons 8 "One of the males complied and dropped the weapon, the other continued to advance on the victim and was shot by officers,"  * One man who said he was a witness, S**** Mohammad, 19, told reporters his friend, the teenager who was shot, was holding a broomstick and had been fighting with an older man before the officers arrived."He barely even turned around. ... My friend didn't do anything," Mohammad told the Deseret News newspaper" --  "my friend didn't do anything"? Good grief if he had done something.. like drop the weapon and obey the police officers, we wouldn't be talking about this.. BUT, if the dead attackers friend. the witness... had done something .. like stop his friend from attacking the old man, there wouldn't have been any cause for the police to even be there.. IT'S THE FRIEND's FAULT!

From the "this candidate is throwing in the towel" department - Online story: "Sen. Ted Cruz speculated Sunday that Republican presidential rival Donald Trump might be delaying the release of his tax returns because of possible ties with the mob. *  "Maybe it is the case that Donald, there have been multiple media reports about Donald's business dealings with the mob, with the mafia," Cruz said on "Meet the Press."
"Maybe his taxes show those business dealings are a lot more extensive than has been reported," he added."  --  "speculated"? Cruz has lost it.. Trump has a better argument about Cruz having "dealings" with mob figures.. because Cruz probably dealt with them in court..and if a "mob" figure got off, maybe Cruz threw the case.. hey,, just "speculating" here.

Both Cruz and Rubio keep claiming they represent conservatism..as members of the Senate majority, how conservative is it to allow the National Debt to soar?

Even Fox played "Wag the Dog" with Hillary's SC primary win. Let's be realistic, 369,000 who voted.in the Democratic Primary is half the number that showed up a week before for the Republican primary. Additionally, the turnout for this primary had less than 70% of the number that voted in the 2008 Democratic primary. To me, it doesn't even demonstrate that the Democratic base is very excited about either choice they have.

Wonder if black voters have ever considered why they don't like most Republicans... maybe it's linked to their experiences at trusting Kennedys and Clintons?

Remember when Starkist use to rebuke Charlie because it wanted tuna that tastes good versus a tuna with good taste?

---
Don't you think it's scary that ex Mexican President Vicente Fox and Hillary consider Obama's America is already great?

---
I am most curious as to how Al Sharlatan wants to increase black Oscar nominations.. set asides, something already stricken down by the US Supreme Court? Or maybe by reaching up in the air and snatching a name out of the sky like he does when trying to find facts to support his usual lies?

What does an advocate for P.E.T.A. do when he/she is outside playing with a puppy they've "saved" from a dog pound, and an eagle or owl sweeps down and grabs it?

Raven Simone ...remember her from the Cosby Show...and Disney movies?  I guess brilliance is not her forte.. She said she and her family (and that she already has the tickets) are moving to Canada if...if a Republican is NOMINATED for president. Well, get packed and gone. I can assure you a Republican will be nominated.

From the "God help us" department - Remember this? -  "I believe the PRIMARY role of the state is to teach, train and raise children. Parents have a secondary role." - Hillary Clinton, "It Takes A Village" -- Democrats have advocated this since LBJ in the 60s, and we have more children living below the poverty and literacy lines than ever!

Planned Parenthood just announced that it was going to spend $1,000,000.00 on advertising for Hillary..There's definitely a need to rewrite existing 501 (c) 3 and 4 statuses to completely forbid foundations from making political donations/statements of any kind.

Online headline: "Samuel L. Jackson: “If That Motherf*cker (Trump) Becomes President I Will Move my Black A** to South Africa”"  -- Well.. Jackson got one thing correct .. he is an ass...You know, with all the "stars" promising to move to other countries if Trump wins, I do believe Trump is picking up new voters every day. You know, if Trump wins, we will have a smoother running and more civil America!

Incredibly stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": "   Republican voters: You are decent people wanting the same things Democrats want — protection of our country, our jobs and our environment. You’ve been fed scare tactics so long you don’t trust anyone. Let’s talk." -- Hmmm.. has anyone heard a Republican candidate campaigning  on "free college" or income redistribution, or dismantling our military? No, Republicans campaign on "Freedom Issues", not "free stuff" like middle school Student Government candidates.

You know.. those libs who harp about climate change could guarantee perfect weather in their own futures if.. they only believed in Jesus.. and God's decisions to give us each day as He deems perfect on Earth.

Hank Aaron still doesn't get it.. I grew up in the times of Willie Mays and Hank Aaron.. I loved Willie Mays.. he elevated his team to play better.. to win.. Hank Aaron.. not so much.. like today, Aaron was just in it for himself, and the team results reflected that.
