From the "even yellow dog Democrats cannot deny ZERO-bama is a pathological liar" department - Online headline/story: "President Obama has strong response to gun control question *  At the Elkhart, IN PBS Newshour Town Hall meeting,  Doug Rhude, a gun shop owner, challenged President Obama's record on gun control. Arguing that irresponsible people in our society are accountable for actions such as drinking and driving without having cars taken away from "the good guys," "why then do you and Hillary want to control and restrict and limit gun manufacturers, gun owners and responsible use of guns and ammunition to the rest of us, the good guys, instead of holding the bad guys accountable for their actions?" Rhude asked.  * President Obama didn't hold back in his response to Rhude. "First of all, the notion that I or Hillary or Democrats or whoever you want to choose are hell-bent on taking away folks' guns is just not true," he said." -- "hell-bent on taking away folks' guns is just not true"? ZERO-bama must have the worst case ever of bi-polarism as well as forked tongue disease!

Wow..only 38,000 new jobs reported and yet the unemployment number dropped to 4.7%. Hmmm, that reflects the number of people no longer looking for jobs. Guess too many of those have been listening to Hillary & Bernie and figure if either wins, they will get everything they need for free, so why look a job now.

---
38,000 jobs created in May... there goes Hillary's campaign strategy of continuing ZERO-bama's 3rd term.

---
Hillary is trying to reinvent ...again ...herself as "approachable". Wait a minute..isn't Hillary the one who actually roped off the press corp at events, refused debates, and hasn't had a press conference in 6 months.

---
From the "Reality 101 is real" department - Online story: " Maya Dillard Smith, interim director of the Georgia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, resigned because she could no longer agree with the organization's push for transgender bathroom bills. * “I have shared my personal experience of having taken my elementary school age daughters into a women’s restroom when shortly after three transgender young adults, over six feet [tall] with deep voices, entered,” Smith shared. “My children were visibly frightened, concerned about their safety and left asking lots of questions for which I, like many parents, was ill-prepared to answer."" -- Liberals are the worse "Nimby" (we support all fringe positions,but "Not In My Back Yard) practitioners.

---
From the "only Democrats will find this confusing" department: Good grief...Hillary says Trump isn't qualified because he doesn't have political experience. Hmmm, and exactly how has her vast political experienced helped you?

---
You know, I find it disturbing that Hillary spends all her campaign energies on talking about her opinion about other candidates promises rather than detailing her , in her opinion, successes and how those will be her legacy.

 

---

Hillary has failed even another leadership opportunity..again.. as quick as she is to condemn Trump's calls for action on immigration reform and building "the wall" by saying "this is not who we are", why hasn't she stepped up to a microphone following the San Jose riots at the Trump rally, and said to the thugs, "this is not who we are"? Hmmm, I guess it's because it's exactly who her base voters are.

Did you see the video of the distraught dad go after the serial killer/sex offender when the jury found the (_*_) guilty? Too bad we don't have that kind of emotion in our heaviest crime riddled neighborhoods, or from the DA's office, or...unfortunately, too many juries.

What are movie folks thinking? Do they really think people want one-sided message movies, or entertainment? I recently suffered through an outdoor showing of "The Good Dinosaur" while in Florida. Forget the anachronistic mix of humanoids and dinosaurs, the reptilian characters were stereotyped as cultural groups. One particularly heinous example were the "Velociraptors" Their clothing, linguistics, and clothing accessories were blatantly Appalachian/hill-billy in nature.

---
From the "absoluteluy pathetic" department: Homeland Security has announced it has captured a mid-eastern muslim terrorist that came across the US/Mexican border. * Good grief..Homeland Security is proud that it caught one when it's known the terrorist captured was in the company of 5 Pakistanis, and Homeland Security has no idea where they are.. Aren't you ready for change? Vote Trump!

Talk about a campaign reform that needs to be initiated... now! Though Jim Barksdale (and his cute cap) is certainly not the first, let's make him the last.  Democrat primary winner in GA's 2016 Senate race "loaned" himself $2,000,000.00 for his campaign.. How do you "loan yourself money"?  I have no problem with someone using their own resources (in fact, I prefer it) to run for office, but it should be a donation rather than a "loan".. I mean .. how do you pay yourself back from what you earn as a politician.. It's rather obvious the candidate expects other people to "donate" that money back to him if he wins.. sorta like post-election bribery.

L-E headline: "MUSCOGEE COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT * New student transfer process explained *
District’s new process essentially same as previous one under Georgia House Bill 251 *  Difference is that OST allows district to reassign transfer students with behavior or attendance problems" -- Hmmm.. OST... Open Seat Transfer...You know, the MCSB could really take advantage of this and save $56 +/- millions of dollars at once, and many millions more in the future. Instead of building an unnecessary new Spencer High, take advantage of the OST, and reassign existing Spencer students to other High Schools in Columbus.. I mean, it's not like the other schools cannot handle them.

L-E's " Thought for Today, “If America forgets where she came from, if the people lose sight of what brought them along, if she listens to the deniers and mockers, then will begin the rot and dissolution.” — Carl Sandburg, American writer (1878-1967)." -- Good grief.. don't tell our School Board/Library System about this or they will remove all of Sandburg's great American history series.
