Good grief.. ABC has hired Chris Christie as a "contributor".. you have to consider this a match made in hell.

Hellary made a spectacle of herself at the Grammys looking like she was reading a book, but we know how DIMocrats are averse to reading anything, but if she wants to read timely material, she should have read the books about Slick Willie's assaults on the women and apologized for covering up for him.
---
You know, instead of Hellary hiding behind a book looking like she was reading, it would have been funnier if she poked her head up from reading a federal indictment paper.
---
Hellary probably must have a hearing problem..she probably heard she was being asked to read as a "Granny", not in the " Grammy"
---
Online headline: "Grammy Awards ratings down sharply from 2017 in early Nielsen numbers" -- Hmm remember those high school days when a schools fans in the gym for a basketball game would pull out newspapers and appear to be reading them when the opposing team took the court? That what Hellary "reading" a book looked like to me.. ironically, though the "book" was based on gossip, it was probably more honest than the Grammy Awards.

Soapbox Moment: President Trump just appointed a new head of the HHS.. a former Senior Executive at Eli Lily Pharmaceuticals. Trump assigned him the specific task of exposing why drug prices are so high and climbing. I'm hoping this will be the focus, I wat to talk about my experience with Benicar, In 2005, as I was dealing with a lung cancer issue, my Dr, prescribed Benicar for high blood pressure.. The first bottle of 30 cast less than $58.00. Last year, Benicar became replicative as a generic. At the time, I was paying $254.00 a bottle of 30 at Sams Club. In February 2016, I got a refill of a Benicar generic at Walgreens or $92.00, and today, less than a year of being "generic", I can buy a bottle of 30 generic Benicar for about $18.00, and I've seen it advertised at under $11.00. I'm all for free enterprise, but when a company raises it's prices annually.. at time 2 or 3 times in a year, far in excess of inflation simply because it has "copyright protections", then that is pretty much "gouging", and this practice should be exposed... and ..stopped. Let's face it, when a company gets a medicine to market, all the development expenses are figured into the initial pricing, and increases in retail after that are just greed.
---
Online headline: "Magic Johnson calls for firings amid Michigan State sexual assault scandal" -- Hmmm... In all fairness... you know a "goose/gander" thing.. maybe Magic Johnson should open up about how and when he contracted "AIDS" before throwing anymore stones.
---
Online headline/story: "FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe stepping down * FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe stepped down Monday as the agency’s No. 2, multiple sources familiar with the matter told NBC News. * McCabe will remain on the FBI payroll until he is eligible to retire with full benefits in mid-March, the sources said. * One source familiar said McCabe was exercising his retirement eligibility and characterized McCabe’s decision as "stepping aside."" -- Good grief.. with the scandal of McCabe's wife's huge campaign donations from Hellary associated groups, Trump should fire him now, and revoke his pension plan..America deserves.. and should be entitled to an un-politically-fettered FBI!
---
HuffPOOPOO headline: "Maxine Waters to respond to Donald Trump's State Of The Union speech" -- While not the "official" DIMocrat "response", this will probably be more accurate of the DIMocrat "ideals". It'll be carried on BET.. I'm going watch the DNC's version of "Waters World".. join me and skew the networks ratings figures. (Channel 862 on Charter/Spectrum)

From the "send his to all Hollywood women before they show up for casting calls or red carpet awards ceremonies" department:

----
Online story: "New Orleans city officials said on Thursday that more than 46 tons - or 93,000 pounds - of Carnival beads were among 7.2 million pounds of trash pulled from clogged catch basins along a five-block stretch of a downtown parade route, the Times-Picayune newspaper reported." -- Wow.. no wonder Katrina flooded the city... Looks like 93,000 pounds of beads were extracted along with over 7,100,000 pounds pf other "blockages".. I do wonder how many "bodies" were in there as well.
---
You know, if the producer of "Hamilton" does a sequel/revitalization of "The Wizard of Oz" with the same political message , he's going to have a rough time deciding on who will be the "Scarecrow". Every DIMocrat will want that part, and they are all equally qualified as none of them have a brain.
---
You know, if Congress puts $25 BILLION aside in a border security trust, that represent an investment of only $83.00 per 300,000,000 Americans. Sounds like a terrific bargain going forward.
---
One of the ways the new corporate tax cuts can help our economy is by allowing smart companies the opportunity to hold down/reduce consumer prices and get a bigger share of the market.
---
Saw what epitomizes lack o relationship skills creeping in to our society, and it's not just caused by cellphone communications. In Target yesterday, I saw kid's Valentine packages that come with erasers.. I guess so recipients can recycle cards to other people by erasing their name and the givers.


-----------------------
L-E headline: "One triple homicide suspect to plead in brutal 2016 slayings, a second withdraws plea" -- The DA's office should only offer 1 "plea deal".. That's to offer the (_@_)s the option for chemical vs bludgeoning deaths, and whether on the steps of the Court House today, or at Jackson Prison in a week.
---
From the "give me two signs of returning consumer confidence" department - L-E story: "Americans increased their spending 0.4 percent in December, a solid pace but slower than the big spending burst seen in November, while their saving rate fell to a more-than decade low." -- And naturally, unemployment in Columbus distanced itself further away than most of the state.. how about 'splaining this Mayor Tom-LYING-son...
---
From the "only in California" department - Online story: "Every time I think Democrats in California state government can’t stoop any lower, they outdo themselves. Some of their greatest hits in recent years include a gasoline tax hike that can’t be used to expand our roads; a sanctuary state policy that protects criminal illegal immigrants; and a new law to soften the penalty for knowingly exposing people to HIV. *The latest madness to come out of Sacramento is an effort by Assemblyman Ian Calderon to make it illegal for restaurants to offer plastic straws to customers who don’t ask for them." -- Hmm.. guess this means if I can recycle animal excrement into a biodegradable straw, it will be a hit in California fast food drive through lanes...
---
L-E story: "A man was killed early Monday in shooting at Lumpkin Park Apartments, Muscogee County Chief Deputy Coroner Freeman Worley said." -- Good grief.. this is number 5, I believe, in less than a month of 2018.. Looks like a record year send-off for Mayor Tom-LYING-son..
---
Dual "get's it" L-E "soundoffs": "That conceptual illustration of 13th Street on Monday’s front page was lacking one thing: It should’ve had The Beatles walking on the crosswalk." and "Have you noticed the people who want to change our streets in Columbus didn’t grow up here? They’re in it for their own agenda. Leave 13th Street alone!" --Hmm.. and now the two biggest promoters.. former MidTown ED, Mayor Tom'_LYING-son wants to move to Washington, and current MidTown ED just announced she was leaving town as well.
---
L-E headline: "MCSD board votes no on using holiday as makeup class day" -- Hmmm... guess most of the MCSB did nor want students to hear about the great job President Trump has done over the past year.
---
L-E headline: "N. Korea cancels event, blames S. Korean media" -- Hmmm..My take is that Kim Jong Oooops could not afford Uber fare for his folks to get there.
---
L-E headline.story: "House GOP votes to release secret memo * Democrats called the 31/2-page document a dangerous effort to build a narrative to undercut the department’s ongoing Russia investigation, using cherry-picked facts assembled with little or no context." -- Hmmm.. you know, DIMocrats blubber for transparency.. as long as it's not about DIMocrats. Now, how transparent is THIS?
---
L-E story: "A member of the Board of Equalization in Muscogee County is seeking $50,000 from the city for expenses, lost wages and mental anguish stemming from an unsuccessful attempt to remove him from the board in 2016. * Alton Russell says he believes the Board of Tax Assessors’ effort to remove him from the position was in retaliation for his strong opposition to the “Thaw the Freeze” property tax initiative rejected by voters that same year. * But (Josh) McKoon, Russell’s attorney, believes the request for compensation is justified. * “Mr. Russell has been on the Board of Equalization for a number of years,” he said. “There was never any complaint about his conduct or decisions he made until he went down to a meeting of our City Council and exercised his First Amendment right to voice his opinion on the mayor’s proposal to alter the tax freeze. And then, within 24 hours of that he finds himself subjected to a complaint that required him to retain council and to fight a legal process simultaneously in the Muscogee Grand Jury and the Muscogee Superior Court." -- Hmmm .. any .. and all .. fines/penalties should be paid for out of the pockets of the BOE members that colluded to remove Alton Russell in his matter.. and manner.
