Online headline/story: "Mark Cuban: I'd 'absolutely' consider being Hillary Clinton's vice president *
Mark Cuban told NBC's Chuck Todd in a "Meet the Press" interview set to air Sunday that he would "absolutely" consider being Hillary Clinton's running mate. * "Absolutely," he said. * "I know what Hillary's positions are," he said. "I can go to Hillary's website and there's spreadsheets, there's depth, there's analysis, there's details * "But the key would be that she'd have to go more to center." -- "she'd have to go more to center"?  -- Hey, Cuban, the Mavericks already have a "center"... besides, as much of a pathological liar as she is, what makes you think her website has any truth on it?

Online headline: "FDA makes huge change to food labels in the US: -- Whew.. it's just more nutrition stuff.. I first thought packaging was going to have to have Spanish, Chinese, French and Farsi versions as well, and food would have to be packaged in "blister packs" so there'd be room on the labels.

I think the majority of the MCSB members have lost sight of their purpose.. while it's the Superintendents job to run/administrate, it's the school board members' job to be leaders and give community direction to the Superintendent.. School board members not wanting access to all financial data need to be weeded out.

With the influx of planes crashing, and the propensity of planes being the target of terrorist, isn't it time for a better recovery system for planes' "black boxes"?

I am pro-life...but I do not want the abortion issue to be one of a legislative nature. It's part of a covenant a woman (or couple) has with God.

LIV "doubleheader" L-E "soundoffs": "A sheriff who can’t follow directions and a sheriff who can’t follow a budget — what a choice. Where’s Wyatt Earp when you need him? &  Chief Ricky Boren should mentor Sheriff John Darr or Mark LaJoye regarding ways to manage a budget." -- I'm actually glad to see Tompkins and LaJoye reinstated on the ballots and running in November.. it will give Sheriff Darr an opportunity to point out that neither one seems to know that the budget overruns exist because of federal/court mandates/'orders to inmate medical/psychiatric care.  And apparently, neither does Mayor TomLYINGson...

A Democrat spinmeister on Fox was trying to make a point that Donald Trump would be a disaster as our commander-in-chief....HUH? Trump..bad...compared to who... ZERO-bama...or Hillary ..or Bernie? Good grief!

L-E's " Thought for Today, “Being frustrated is disagreeable, but the real disasters of life begin when you get what you want.” — Irving Kristol, American writer (1920-2009)." -- Sounds like the basis of the Democratic Party excuse when the voters ask why they are still in poverty.

That "Together 2016" campaign is filled with mysteries,, what is it's real purpose.. other than spending beau coup bucks on newspaper ads .. One ad says, "The next chapter of Together 2016 is choosing a project that will be funded by our partners - ranging from beautification projects to promoting development and tourism."
I've been to the website searching for purpose"
:
 
 
but haven't really seen anything that warrants the activities going on except that "it" has set up a huge political base to campaign TADs and for voting the tax freeze out. Anybody know anything different?

Online headline/story: "Secret Service: Suspect shot at White House gate * The suspect was brandishing a weapon, and a uniformed Secret Service officer gave him "numerous verbal commands for the subject to stop and drop the firearm," said Secret Service spokesman Samuel Reed Jr. The officer shot the suspect once, and he was taken to a local hospital." --  Hmm.. it's OK for Secret Service agents to give a verbal order then shoot, but not for police officers patrolling high crime neigborhoods? Of course the rumor has it that man shot wanted to use the White House West Wing bathroom of Michelle Obama.

There are only a few issues that will be pertinent in November...safety from ISIS, safety in our neighborhoods, and whether soccer moms want perverted men going into their daughters'' bath/lockerrooms.

I think I know why Hillary is for open use of public bathrooms.. she wants to feel free to follow Bill into them to see who he's meeting.

Classic Hillary campaign literature: 
 


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
L-E guest commentary: "Time for just one Clinton in the 2016 race * BY GAIL COLLINS New York Times News Service *    Hillary wants to be the first woman ever elected president of the United States. The economy is the central issue in the campaign. The fact that she’s assuring voters that Bill will take care of it is … totally wrong." -- Whoa! Even the liberals are realizing Hillary's not "the smartest woman in the world" ... unless... Hillary admits that no woman is smarter than men.

Jordam Spieth is back! Forget the back-to-back good rounds at the Byron Nelson.. on the practice tee.. Spieth delighted the fans by teeing up a marshmallow and popping it up in the air with a lob wedge.. then.. ran out ahead turned around and made a diving catch of the marshmallow with his teeth!  That goes into my top five "no one can do that shot" category, and is a contender for a shot my late Uncle Hal Armentrout made at the Country Club of Columbus playing with my mom and dad. (Mother was Uncle Hal's sister).. After a miserable 11 holes of golf, Uncle Hal was down to his last golf ball as he teed it up on #12. Number 12 has a small pond about 25 yard in front of the tee. Uncle Hal "skied" hi tee shot straight up.. quickly realizing the situation. Uncle Hal dropped his driver and loped off at full speed to the edge of the pond.. reached out and caught hi tee shot before it hit the water.. more such tales in the future...
