Trump wins Nevada.. so did the Republican Party... ..over 75,000 turn out versus 32,000 in 2012. On the other hand.. in the 2016 Democrat Nevada Caucus, only 12,000 showed up,

Online headlinestory: "Bernie Sanders: Pope Francis is a socialist  * Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders is a big fan of Pope Francis, whom he considers to be a socialist." -- Hmmm an authentic pot/kettle analogy. Hmmm.. maybe Bernie's white hair is tribute to Poop Francis' white hat.

Online headline/story: "Newt Gingrich slammed 'Fox & Friends' for giving Donald Trump a massive platform  *
"This time the billionaire is spending the least amount of money and running away with this thing," co-host Brian Kilmeade said, according to Media Matters. It's going to make people...  *  "Well, but that's because of you guys," Gingrich interjected.  * "Donald Trump gets up in the morning, tweets to the entire planet at no cost, picks up the phone, calls you, has a great conversation for about eight minutes, which would have cost him a ton in commercial money and meanwhile his opponents are all out there trying to raise the money to run an ad. Nobody believes the ad." -- You know.. I expected better from Newt.. Fox gave Newt plenty of "free" airtime when he was Speaker of the House and as a presidential candidate. Besides, it's not Trump's "fault" that he can command  "free" airtime.. it demonstrates Trump's grasp of the situation and his ability to market himself without wasting money, and that, mu friends, is the kind of person we need leading this country out of the Socialist quagmire of the Democratic Party.

Watched some of the Council meeting last night... our City Manager said that if Council came up with $500K for the Aquatic Center, the problems would be resolved..WRONG! Coming up with $500K would maybe solve the current issue, but what about next year etc. You know.. no specific facility is successful if it doesn't attract enough users who's fees pay for it to stay open.

---
You know, both the City and School System are strained by after school program costs. Perhaps parents who are not employed be responsible for caring for their children after school would help with the care costs for children of working parent(s).

NERO-bamageddon says if we close GITMO, we can try, prosecute, and contain terrorists in one of our maximum security jails , and...(there's always an "and" with NERO-bamageddon), if we do it right, there won't be any problems. Hmmm..the key word words here are "if we do it right". What can NERO-banageddon point to that he's ever "done right".

---
Has anybody at CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, or NBC bothered to ask NERO-bamageddon what the affect of putting the 60 worst terrorists in a position to influence/recruit new terrorists from among the worst criminals we have in captivity?

---
It's scary that Hillary has a better than 50% negative opinion nationwide. Even scarier is that only 20% in the poll group had a negative opinion of Bernie,  a self-declared Socialist.

---
Online story: " Monday night Donald Trump made it clear that as President he would prosecute Hillary Clinton. " -- Hmmm--- I just believe Trump has won.. the polls will be overwhelmed in November by folks who haven't had a reason to vote for anyone as a president since Reagan.

---
From the "oxyMORONic" department - Online story: "ATLANTA | A recent law designed to protect children against obscene text messages and emails was termed unconstitutional Monday by an attorney defending a Camden County man awaiting trial. * Mark Bennett, one of the attorneys for Jack Bernard Scott argued before the Georgia Supreme Court that free speech protections allow an adult to talk dirty to a child as long as the child isn’t harmed." -- "as long as the child isn’t harmed"?  I have intentionally included one of the attorneys name.. other clients/potential clients should know what this attorney feels about what might or might not hurt clients own children.

---
Could not believe that Council voted 9-1 on sending a new "freeze attack" edict to our legislators. especially with them not having a copy to read until one day before voting on it.. Anybody running against any of the 9, let me know..except for Bruce Huff.. he will get my full support if anybody runs against him.
 
---
I also believe we should demand a ballot initiative amendment that if the Mayor gets her "thaw", then the two "LOST" sales taxes be rescinded.. both were passed to address specific revenue shortages which could not be attained under the "freeze".
 
---
You know... if black communities cooperated with the police, street thugs would not have havens to rule over.. a major problem is "neighbors" who will not "snitch" when not doing so endangers them and their families. "Black Lives Matter" could actually be positively effective if it made it's presence part of crime blighted neighborhoods in cooperation WITH the police.

L-E headline/story: "Georgia Organics comes to Columbus *  The 19th annual Georgia Organics Conference returns to the city — having been here in 2012 as well — for a mix of educational seminars, farm tours, a vendor expo and what is known as a Farmer’s Feast — a meal fit for a safe and healthy diet prepared by top chefs. *  “We wanted to come to Columbus specifically for the growth that we’ve already seen in this movement in Columbus,” said James Carr, communications coordinator with Georgia Organics, the Atlanta-based advocacy organization holding the conference at the Columbus Convention & Trade Center." -- Whoa! I'm curious as how outside caterers are serving food in the Trade Center.. I was under the impression that Aramark did all the food services there, and I was wondering how anyone could get a "healthy" Aramark menu..
