Online headline/story: "Navy SEALs tell top House lawmaker they don't have enough combat rifles * After SEALs return from a deployment, their rifles are given to other commandos who are shipping out, said Hunter, a former Marine who served three combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. This weapons carousel undercuts the "train like you fight" ethos of the U.S. special operations forces, they said. * U.S. military officials said they were looking into the issue." -- "military officials were looking into the issue"? Good grief.. after 2-terms of NERO-bamageddon, the SEALs are lucky if they all have swimming flippers.

Online headline/story: "Lousy food, low pay ... lawmakers testify (gripe) about working on Capitol Hill * Here is one complaint and concern the lawmakers debated at the session:
Low wages for aides.
Good grief... not one of the "lawmakers" has earned his/her own salary, so it's apparent aides are not earning what they are getting paid as it is! Besides, why should aides of lawmakers be higher than "aides
of taxpayers who are paying for the lawmakers AND their aides?

Instant repeat - Online headline/story: "Lousy food, low pay ... lawmakers testify (gripe) about working on Capitol Hill * Here is one complaint and concern the lawmakers debated at the session:
The vulnerability of House garages to a terrorism attack and how security precautions make it a pain for staff to navigate the workplace.
"security precautions make it a pain"? Good grief.. perhaps it's the lousy job the "lawmakers" are doing that arouses suspicion of the security team that they are actually suppose to be in the Capitol.

Instant repeat - Online headline/story: "Lousy food, low pay ... lawmakers testify (gripe) about working on Capitol Hill * Here is one complaint and concern the lawmakers debated at the session:
Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the top Democrat on the Legislative Branch Appropriations panel and chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, posed multiple questions to acting House Chief Administrative Officer Bill Plaster at the hearing about the availability of tampons and sanitary napkins.
* “When you need a feminine hygiene product, you need one. Immediately,” lectured Wasserman Schultz. “For the convenience store to stop stocking products like that is really inconvenient. It’s the opposite of the purpose of a convenience store.”" --
"when you need a feminine hygiene product, you need one immediately"? Excuse me, but shouldn't a Congresswoman know she's going to need such, and have her own supply? In fact, since Wasserman Schultz is perpetually in PMS mode, she should carry hers in a backpack.
---
It's definitely between Cruz and Trump now.. Rubio's immaturity caught up with him. Rubio was shut out of delegates in Maine and Louisiana by not getting past the minimum vote threshold.. In Maine, the threshold was only 10%... pathetic.
---
You know.. the Republican Party should just name Trump its presidential candidate.. With the number of people who have announced hey are leaving if Trump wins, America will start out a better place for the rest of us.
---
The L-E published the local primary results yesterday. There's only one question.. well actually two.. that need to be asked after the primary.. why do voters in South Columbus still support the Democratic Party, and did too many Wynnbrook voters forget it wasn't a cuteness contest...... Rubio?
---
You know..another p-poor L-E/Chitwood analysis..why is there no mention of the number of early/absentee votes? I think it would "interesting" to see how many votes from each precinct were cast early and which candidates benefited.
---
In 1990, I ran as a write-in candidate for mayor.. I got to know Margaret Jenkins quite well during the forums.. Margaret Jenkins was a dynamo .. and former Democrat running as a Republican. As she put it, she'd been a Democrat all her life then woke up.. She woke up when she realized that Democrat politicians promised the world but never delivered. .. Nothing has changed, so why do South Columbus voters still support Democrats?
---
L-E headline/story: "Changes to the Ledger-Enquirer coming Wednesday * You’ll see summaries at the top of stories, which will give you a quick synopsis if you don’t have time for a deeper read" -- "summaries"? What we'll get is "biased opinion" that "may", but probably "may not" correspond exactly with the detail/facts of the complete story.. of course, that's assuming we will get the "complete and factual story".
---
Instant repeat - L-E headline: "Changes to the Ledger-Enquirer coming Wednesday " -- Unfortunately, the changes will not be what neither the L-E nor community needs. Just like before, there won't be any scrutiny to actions of the Council or MCSD, nor will the L-E keep up-to-date crime statistics.

L-E story: "A stray bullet was fired through the walls of three apartments at Cougar Village early today but no one was injured, Columbus police said. * An investigation revealed the errant bullet was fired from an apartment in Building No. 5. at 4712 Milgen Road where a man said he was attempting to clean his 9mm Glock semi-automatic pistol about 2:15 a.m." -- Good grief.. what a stupid story/report..to clean a Glock properly, you remove the slide and barrel.
---
Trump won two of four states on Saturday yet the first question Fox asked him on Sunday morning was if he thought his debate performance on Thursday hurt him... huh? I think that question should be asked to Rubio. He had a miserable Saturday including two states he got shut out of winning any delegates.
---
Qualifying for 5 local Council and 4 School Board seats begins today. Neither group's responsibility is to micro-manage...but it IS their job...their goal to support as well as control those being paid to run the City and School system..not by districts but by what's best for the taxpayers as a whole.

I'm about to resign my membership at Sam's! Went by Saturday with the intent of buying a new camera and TV (my bride has finally acquiesced to a larger one in our living room). Got there and had to park in Phenix City.. Walked into the entry and there wasn't a single shopping cart available.. walked in and watched in amazement at entire families shopping (rules are one guest), and paying with EBT cards. Wait a minute.. I qualify/pay for an annual membership yet people using entitlement cards that your and my taxes fund are shopping there. Why? I mean they got there the same way I did .. by car/truck, and mine was probably the oldest vehicle in the lot.. and the cell phones.. I don't think I saw a child above 10 that didn't have one..I just left.. Sam's lost about $3,000.00 in sales Saturday.. I went home and ordered the camera and heading elsewhere to buy a TV today.
---
Before I went to Sam's, I dropped =by Lowe's to return 2 sets of curtain rods, and buy 2 longer ones. Went to the refund station.. very smooth.. then the clerk asked whether I wanted cash or put it back on my card.. I said, "card". Then she asked if "5 to 7 days" was OK. Of course I said NO,, just give me the cash, and she did. I asked her "why... it "cost" you the cost of swiping my debit card when I bought these and now you giving me the full cash amount plus losing the cost of "swiping" my card.. You know.. business ideas start at the top, but business profits start at the bottom.
---
Rubio is pissin' me off... I don't want candidates more interested in beating Trump than winning the White House and Congress.
---
Hey, Fox..it's Saturday ..10:10 AM....Neal Cavuto just announced SHmIT Romney was coming on in a minute. I just cut to another station. Put that in your ratings analysis.
---
It really gets to me to hear Republican candidates talking about what/who is/isn't a conservative candidate/policy. I have one question to inject...are the ranters talking about their or Webster's Dictionary's definition of "conservative"?
---
Libera media just can't...won't let go if a story..even after contrary facts are well known. The OJ's knife story jx a good example..even though a forensic exam has ruled that this is not the knife that OJ used, ABC's Good Morning America reported it Saturday AM like it is an ongoing story. PS- Fox was doing it, too.

Super stupid LIV's L-E "soundoff": " Shame on any Vietnam veteran for voting for five-time Vietnam war draft dodger. He didn’t want to serve then and he’s not able to be Commander in Chief now." -- Hey, Dumbo.. wrong Clinton.. it's his wife that's running now!

L-E headline/story: "SOME IN GOP START SEEING CRUZ AS BEST ALTERNATIVE TO
TRUMP
* Republican leaders on Sunday grappled with the prospect that the best
hope for stopping Donald Trump’s march to the nomination may be Ted Cruz — the
only candidate who causes as much heartburn among party elites as the
billionaire businessman, if not more." -- Good grief.. isn't it time that the
RNC/GOP start looking at who's the best candidate for the American future rather
than the future of the GOP? The funny thing is.. the voters will decide that if
the RNC/GOP just backs away.
---
I do not play the rumor game, but there are rumblings about mistresses in
Rubio's life.. well.. he is adorably cute...

L-E headline/story: "Hundreds expected at gay wedding expo * By BRADY
McCOMBS * ASSociated Press
* SALT LAKE CITY — Hundreds of people are expected Sunday at a wedding expo in Salt Lake City aimed at connecting same-sex couples with businesses who will work their weddings in a state where florists, bakers and photographers have a legal right to refuse to serve a gay couple and commonly do." -- "Hundreds expected"? Good grief.. why is this newsworthy to begin with, and why would the L-E waste trees to print it? There were "100s" at the First Baptist Church of Columbus "house-warming" opening of it's new City Ministry facility, "Second Story" at the corner of 11th St and Broadway last evening, and that was newsworthy .. even for the L-E.

The oath sworn by all new/re-elected presidents is: ""I do solemnly swear
(or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United
States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the
Constitution of the United States" -- NERO-bamageddon is going to escape
prosecution by a technicality... he IS operating at "the best of (his)
abilility".. unfortunately, he's just not very good.

Our L-E has published this Toles "cartoon".. a quick search indicates
there's no truth in this matter, but knowing how Democrats have "changed" the
rules _without reading them), I would like confirmation from some of our legal
eagles.. Of course, our Columbus L-E thought nothing about running such without
conformation of truth.
-------------------------------------------------
Speaking of cartoons...one of best I've seen is this Non Sequitur
submission:
Of course, it would work with the House and the White House as well.
