From the "mainscream media just doesn't git it.. no.. refuses to git it" department - Online HuffPOOPOO headline/story: "People aren't buying Mike Pence's claim that he walked out of an NFL game because players kneeled during the national anthem * Vice President Mike Pence said he left an NFL game between the Indianapolis Colts and the San Francisco 49ers early on Sunday because some of the players knelt during the national anthem. * "I will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our Flag, or our National Anthem," Pence said in a statement, reviving what has been a subject of angst for President Donald Trump in recent weeks. * Some people, however, were not convinced, and quickly suggested the vice president pulled a stunt at the behest of Trump." -- "some people were not convinced"? Good grief.. "some people" is beginning to be a favorite catch-phrase of the MSM to support their bias. Well.. MOST people support our military and police officers...

Remember when the first "zone" signs appeared on/near our school campuses... you know.."Drug Free"... "Gun Free".. "Smoke Free"... "Texting Free"... even "Peanut Free"?. We didn't know where liberalism was going with it, but.. like all liberal movements.. it's gone to far.. now our schools are peppered with "Freedom of Speech Free Zone" signs..

Here's a question all libs and illegal aliens need to really think about.. for generations, America was the beacon.. you know, make it to America... the land of opportunity, the epitome of greatness. That too changed with liberalism, and President Trump has stepped in to return America to the greatness for more immigrants and refugees in the future.. What libs fail to remember.. understand.. is that it was a strong Constitution that enabled America and it's people.. whether they was born citizens here or naturalized.. to make America even greater for the next generation..Libs choose to ignore or rewrite the tenets that work for everybody's benefit.

From the "there's even more to this than meets the eye" department - Online story: "The NFL is losing popularity amongst its core demographic, men between the ages of 35-54.The news follows the backlash of President Trump’s criticism of player’s protests during the National Anthem. * According to a poll by the right-leaning Winston Group, 42 percent of men between the age of 35-54 had a favorable view of the NFL in September, but has since dropped to 31 percent -- making it the least favored major sport on the survey." -- Though I'm 35 (with 35 more years of experience), my experience tells me that a poll of major individual NFL sponsors will reveal even LESS that 31% are happy with the impact this is having on their products/sales. One thing not delved into is that Trump is more popular among the 35-54 range of former NFL fans.

You know.. mainscream media says everything Trump says is a lie.. yet instantly believes it when he says something that mainscream media can blast him with...

There's a survey out with a list of things .. 8 categories in all... that determine whether you are happy or not.. I have a survey that determines this with only one question.. did you vote for Trump or Hellary?

What happens when 90,000 Gator fans sing "Won't Back Down" at a football game.. they lose to LSU 17-16... perhaps, "Free Falling" would have been a better choice.

Bill Clinton must be shaking in his boots... Mainscream media and libs have turned on Harvey Weinstein for his "bimbo eruptions" and mainscream media has a whole lot of unfinished stories on Slick Willie to re-hash.

L-E headline: "MUSCOGEE COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT * MCSD’s discipline against teacher who used N-word sparks debate" -- Good grief.. no wonder racial tensions have escalated! The adults involved need to be "taken to the woodshed" for acting so childish. A mistake in judgement was made.. it's been apologized for in a seemingly proper manner, and chances are, the young lady would be over it and moving on except for the adults who have taken over her life.. Now this child will learn that "she's wrong" for accepting an apology.. The child will harbor this the rest of her life and be castigated if she ever says she doesn't "hate" that teacher.. The child will pass this along... shame on you adults for not showing her love...

L-E headline: "Columbus mayor Tomlinson returns to ‘AM Joy’ to talk U.S. Constitution" -- Good grief.. why doesn't she talk about something she KNOWS about.. like the rising crime rates in Columbus!





And as far as Ossoff is concerned.. why doesn't she push for a law that REQUIRES Congressional candidates actually LIVE in the District they campaign to represent?

L-E editorial headline/content: "COMMENTARY * News is so bad, you just can’t quit * BY CHUCK WILLIAMS chwilliams@ledger-enquirer.com * Who the hell does that? Who knocks out the windows on the 32nd floor of a hotel, aims and fires? Who’s that sick? Who values human life so little they would do that?" -- Hmm... who snipes at ordinary citizens out of the window of a 32nd Floor window.. the same could be said for a reporter who snipes at ordinary citizens out of his 2nd/3rd story office..

No salt, Gluten Free, No grains, Dairy Free, No artificial Colors/Flavors, Sugar Free, Corn Fructose Free.. you know, when I see these words "blasted at us" on packages and ads, I wonder what it is that has replaced them that's probably WORSE for us..

Online story: "The son of a Pennsylvania mayor was charged with assault last week after he punched and stomped the politician, who says her son is battling an opioid addiction.


* Police said the son of York Mayor Kim Bracey attacked her at her campaign office on Sept. 30, the York Daily Record reported. * The reports quoted police as saying Brandon Anderson, 30, of York, was charged with punching his mother in the face, knocking her to the ground, and then stomping on her back, head and face while she was down. * A person who witnessed the attack intervened when Anderson tried to hit the mayor with a wooden flag pole, * "Like thousands of families, our family is confronting the fact that my adult son is battling an opioid addiction," Bracey said. "No family is immune from this epidemic -- which is why we must do everything in our power to solve it." -- You know.. this is not an opioid problem.. this is a life-long lack of respect for a parent problem.

You know, if California is so determined to be a sanctuary state.. to defy the Constitution of the US, then let's shut down our military bases and defenses in California and tell Moonbeam Brown to work out his own plan to stop Kim Jong Oooops missile attacks.

If the NFL and NCAA are serious about eliminating players from using their helmets as battering rams, simply put a short metal ball bearing in the top inside of their helmets so that if they hit someone else, the metal ball bearing will cause great pain to the tackler.

If anyone has a "cause" and wants my support, they have a better chance to get that ..or at least my sympathy/imput.. ..if they respect my opinion, respect our flag/anthem, and have tolerance and patience....maybe then I'll respect their opinion

It's shame the Concerned Columbus Facebook site has so many members who openly admit being part of the 'thought police"... they convict people despite physical evidence that shows thoughts were not acted on. Wonder if they have turned themselves in for "distracted thought processing"?

From the "let's set Kasich's record straight in case he campaigns on doing t=for America what he's done for Ohio" department - Online story: "Total liabilities: $50.63 billion


Total assets: $79.96 billion


Debt ratio: 63.3 percent


Ohio has the second-highest total liabilities in the Midwest region, trailing Illinois’ huge amount of state debt.



On the "good side": Fortunately, Ohio also possesses the largest total net position — $29.33 billion — in that same region, just ahead of No. 38 Missouri.



Now Compared to GA: "Total liabilities: $30.86 billion


Total assets: $52.33 billion


Debt ratio: 59.0 percent


Though it’s in the bottom half of the list, Georgia has shown promise when it comes to state debt and its financial situation. Most notably, Georgia’s growing economy fueled a $1.8 billion increase in tax revenue from fiscal year 2015 to 2016.



And, of course, GA's growth potential would be explosive if it didn't have to include the failure of Mayor Tom-LYING-son's Columbus, GA economy.



---


An interesting note to the above database... 8 states have a negative asset value ration to debts.. Rhode Island, Maryland, California, Kentucky, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Illinois, and New Jersey. I think Trump should issue an Executive Order blocking reps from any of these 8 states from being involved in any budgeting or program planning committees.

From the "we can wish.. can't we" department - Online story: "If there’s one thing that defines the sunny paradise of Southern California, it’s palm trees swinging in the breeze. * But this wont be the case for long. According to the LA Times, palm trees in Los Angeles are dying off. * when they’re gone, that’s it. Authorities have no plans to replace them. * The cause? A tag-team effort from a destructive beetle known as the South American palm weevil and a fungus called Fusarium" -- Hmmm.. you know, as ardent as the California Government is for not allowing water to be used to irrigate farmland because releasing the water might eliminate the "Snail darters", you'd think Californians would support "the Wall" to eliminate the South American palm weevils and fungus... Well... you would at least THINK that would be a possibility if you were logical.

From the "lying through his teeth" department - Online "headLIE": "Colin Kaepernick's 'sole focus' is reportedly playing football and getting another chance in the NFL" -- What "BS".. if such was his "focus".. he'd BE playing football today, but when you make negative choice's, you create negative consequences.

If Mayor Tom-LYING-son is so bent on tearing down the Government Center, what are her plans for the benches on the Plaza that individual Columbus citizens paid for?

Looks like Broadcast TV Premiere Week is a dud,,, L-E story: "The weekly averages for CBS and NBC were hurt by year-to-year comparisons for both prime-time NFL football games, which were down from 2016 (the CBS game on Thursday was likely depressed by a 47-minute weather delay)." -- "47 minute weather delay"?  More like a "47 minute WHETHER delay.. whether anybody was going to watch it delay..

Of course, the main issue is that the shows replacing shows that ended last season are geared for "millennials", and we see from the restaurant industry that catering to millennials is not good for keeping the desired audiences.
