Online headline/story: "Trump predicts that Republicans 'will start working with the Democrats' on infrastructure * This comes on the same day President Trump signed the GOP tax reform bill that received no support from Democratic lawmakers. * Both sides of the aisle agree that a federal funding infrastructure package is needed. However, they don’t agree on specifics. * Trump’s announced willingness to work with Democrats comes only days after he slammed them for not providing a single vote for the tax measure. " -- "Trump’s announced willingness to work with Democrats comes only days after he slammed them for not providing a single vote for the tax measure"? Good grief... The "missing ingredient" in this formula for success is the DIMocrats have not wanted to work with Trump, despite Trump's invitations to sit in.. One has only to look at Congressional hearing at how DIMocrats only ask questions/make statements aimed at protecting DIMocrats under fire rather than seeking the truth.

From the "beauty must be in the biased eye of the beholder" department - About those trees I mentioned at the corner of Green Island Drive and Cascade that have been 'pruned" in preparation for building Mayor Tom-LYING-son's Folly (the roundabout)... check these pics out:

You know.. why does mainscream media insist on calling liberals/DIMocrats "Progressives", as progress is the last thing on their minds when planning programs to inflict on Americans..
---
A news anchor said Trump would have to reach out to Senate DIMocrats in order to get things done in 2018..Hmmm..I think he reached out to DIMocrats in 2017 and got a lot of things done WITHOUT Schumer's help.. I think it's time for Schumer to reach out to Trump...to saved his job...and DIMocrats' relevance!
---
No wonder Pelosi and Schumer are telling mainscream media that voters will reject the Republicans in Nov 2018 because of the Tax Cut bill.. Obviously, Pelosi and,Schumer have never been proficient in math..they believed America is better for doubling its National Debt under Obama than it is going to be with taxpayers having more money in their own pockets.

The biggest lie Mayor Tom-LYING-son has made about the new Government Center project is that if "we" vote on a SPLOST to build it, our sales taxes will stay the same..That absolutely WRONG.. the 2015 MCSD SPLOST "does" go off in 2020.. but the MCSD will want another one added on before the end of the next fiscal year, so our new sales tax total will become 9%
---
You know.. why is there not a "cap" of 10% on all taxes we pay to the government.. 10% is good enough for our religion efforts, and our City main church buildings are in a lot better shape than our government buildings.

Hmmm... Lavar Ball has taken his two younger sons to Lithuania to "further" their basketball careers..wonder how long it will be before one or both get picked up for crimes that Trump will not help them? I'm actually amazed that the US hasn't confiscated LiAngelo's passport as he embarrassed the US in China.

Did you see the WaPO Top 15 list for the DIMocrats running in 2020? Would you believe Bernie is on top ...and Hellary wasn't in the chart.. nor was Mark Cuban or Mark 6uckerberg..... but Dwayne Johnson, Jerry "Moonbeam" Brown, and Oprah were? DIMs are making 2020 too easy...

Good grief...even Fox anchors are picking at the carried interest clause, something that benefits very few investors, like an elephant treating a flea bite like a life threatening attack, and almost missing the explosion of corporate excitement that's generated BILLIONS of bonuses, jobs and investments in America in the last 48 hours. Please note that most.. if not all are living in the NY area, and are subject to already excessive state and local taxes... which they are going to lose quite a bit of for deductions.

I wonder if Fox News had figured out how many viewers change channels or cuts off Fox News whenever Juan Williams or Geraldo come on air?
---
Did you see the rush of major corporations initiating employee bonuses, new jobs, and new investments? Good grief..corporate America has exhibited more confidence in America...and America's future than the entire 8 years of Obama... And think about this, IRS is going to collect millions in new taxes off the year end bonuses already announced.
---
Good grief...think about this.. the DIMocrat argument against voting for the Tax Cut bill is that they feel middle and lower income families are better off getting NO tax cuts as long as the people actually paying them don't get one.

From the "how can a business stay in business not knowing what their customers want" department - Drove through the McDonald's store on Airport Thruway and was greeted with this pre-made sign.. basically a sign made in advance of selling out of what customers are wanting.. I could understand the time-savings of putting a sign up once to keep the customers from ordering something the the order-taker will have to tell them it isn't available.. but that should only happen once. Fortunately, I was only there to get a couple of Fish Sandwiches as it is all I ever order when I pull into a McDonald's.

Online headline/story: "New Georgia tax could cover phone, TV and internet streaming services * Georgia lawmakers are proposing a new tax on phone lines, TV subscriptions and maybe even internet streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. * The telecommunications tax, along with existing sales taxes on network equipment, would help pay for the cost of building high-speed internet lines to the 16 percent of Georgians who live in rural areas that currently lack internet access. The tax could raise roughly $200 million a year in new revenue." -- Wait a minute.. who's gonna pay the taxes on all the Obama-phones?

You know, IRS should get a copy of all the registered DIMocrat voters and mark their files as ineligible for the new Tax Cuts...that would make the DIMocrat Congresspeople happy... well, at least you would think so since they were so adamant about not voting for it.

Online story: "Georgia’s insurance exchange showed an astonishing surge in the last scheduled week of Open Enrollment, roughly doubling the total enrolled to 482,904. * That’s very close to the 493,880 in Georgia who signed up for coverage for the current year. * Nationally, the enrollment figures in the 39 states (including Georgia) that use the federally run exchange also nearly matched the previous year’s total." -- You know.. all these (and there are FEWER) were signed up PRIOR to knowing the Tax Cut bill would pass because the DIMocrat Congresspeople had told their voters that it wouldn't.. so next year is the new measuring-stick, since even this signers-ups will know they aren't gonna be taxed for not being signed up.

L-E story: "The stellar career of world-renowned conductor Charles Dutoit has crashed in the wake of sexual assault accusations by three singers and a musician. Symphonies from Boston to Sydney have severed ties with the maestro, and he has canceled guest appearances with other orchestras." -- Hmmm.. you'd think... or feel as the case may be... that a maestro conductor would know how to control his baton/wand...
