HuffPOOPOO headline: "President Trump threatens to cut aid to Palestinians" -- Hmmm... and why were we giving them money to begin with.. to keep them placated... bribed.. to limit their antagonism?
---
From the "so much for '15 minutes/years of fame' " department - Carson Palmer has announced his retirement? I had to read the story to find out who Carson Palmer was... is... The story said he was the QB for the Arizona Cardinals... no help... then the story mentioned he was the 2002 Heisman winner from Southern Cal... Who was/is Carson Palmer?
---
From the "I knew this was coming" department - Online headline: "University of Central Florida athletic director proclaims team national champs after bowl win" -- Hmm.. and he has a pretty good argument... and without the "playoff system", a VERY good argument.. undefeated, and beat Auburn which beat handily both teams playing in the Championship game on Monday.
---
From the "Stupid is as Stupid says" department - Online headline: "Lindsey Graham: US would pull out of Winter Olympics if North Korea attends" -- Good grief...It's not even Graham's "call", but why bring up an "it ain't gonna happen possibility" to begin with that has no escape route for America? Don't send the team there if the motivation is for safety, not because of Kim Jong Oooops' ego, but don't give this pond scum a spotlight to make himself look "big" in the eyes of libs and 3rd World despots.
---
From the "OObamaCRAP.. British version" department - Online headline/story: "Badly strained UK hospitals to delay non-urgent procedures * National Health Service England officials are telling hospitals to delay some procedures to free up staff and beds to deal with emergency patients. * The restrictions are set to last until at least the end of January and are predicted to affect around 55,000 operations." -- Welcome to the ongoing future on one-source healthcare..
---
Hmmm...now UGA's Rose Bowl record..2-0!
---
California's state debt is $1.7 TRILLION... about $33,000 per Californian . California also just raised its its gasoline taxes to .50 cents a gallon.. unless you're a politician or state management...then you get free gas..maybe even a free car. Now, even if you try to take you family out of California to shake the state debt of $33K per person.. they figure you'll pay for it in gas taxes on the way out.
---
As a rule, especially after a DIMocrat has slinked into the White House, there is usually a midterm "revolt" following a sobering up of voters seeing what Socialists really bring to the table. Don't look for it in 2018..The Republicans biggest issue is voters throwing out RINOs with the DIMocrats in the "swampwater".
---
As "probablized" last week, it's UGA vs Bama in the championship game..as I noted, the FBS needs to restructure its ranking protocols. In the Top 4, numbers 3 and 4 were favored..and took measure of numbers 1 & 2, and now number 4 is favored over number 3. Maybe the FBS ought to listen to the Las Vegas oddsmakers for ranking advice.
---
Political pundits keep saying Trump will have be more restrained and work with Republican candidates to get them elected....WRONG! Republican candidates need to grasp the energy that Trump gives them that the American voters are excited about, and seeking .
---
From the "unfortunately.. for libs.. it's the truth" department - They are very available online so I'm not going to publish pics of them here, but "trolls" have really captured the state of chaos in California by adding "welcome" signs to the State's "welcome signs" celebrating California becoming a "Sanctuary State" on Jan 1st. Some signs are welcoming in "Felons, Drug Dealers, and MS 13" and others welcome low wage nannies and farm workers. Private sector satire is much more illuminating than mainscream media coverups. Case in point, "The Breakfast Club".

Online headline/story: "'Mapping the Swamp' report finds 30,000 feds earn more than any governor * “Nearly 30,000 rank-and-file federal employees who received more than $190,823 out-earned each of the 50 state governors,” the report said. * According to the report, the number of federal employees making $200,000 or more increased by 165 percent between fiscal 2010 and 2016. Federal employees making $150,000 or more grew by 60 percent, with the number making more than $100,000 increasing by 37 percent in the same time period. * According to the "Mapping the Swamp" report, a total of 406,960 federal employees made six-figure incomes in fiscal 2016 – that’s roughly one in five federal employees. " -- You know, until "W" and Obama, no president of the USA was paid more than $200K annually.. and Obama tapped into the treasury pool and put in a large diameter spigot to replace the old "teat" his friends drank from.

From the "other facts found looking up other facts" department: "In fiscal 2016, the United States Postal Service and the Department of Veterans Affairs employed more than half of federal employees. USPS employed 32 percent of all disclosed federal employees, totaling 621,523 people on the payroll; and the VA employed the second-most employees with 372,614." -- There are nearly half as many US Postal employees as there are active military personnel in ALL our branches! We have 1,373,650 +/- active US military personnel and 621,253 +/- US Postal employees..
---
Online story: "A former U.S. Navy sailor has fallen on hard times after serving a year in jail for taking photos of classified areas inside a nuclear submarine, and says a tweet by President Trump on Tuesday morning has restored his hope for a pardon." -- Good grief.. while taking the pictures wasn't right, it's like a pimple on an Elephants butt compared to Huma Abedin passing on state department access passwords to foreign agents!
---
L-E headline: "Somehow, Senate Dems united as 2018 opens" -- DIMs..united?.. Only in subterfuge and the destruction of America.
---
The "Today" show has announced it's replacement hostess for Matt Lauer... .. Koda Hotb. Maybe NBC should update the show's title... "الوَقْت الحاضِر اليَوْم"
---
Lack of perspective LIV's L-E "soundoff": "They deserve our gratitude Thankful to the men who pick up the recycled materials and trash from our homes. They ride on the back of a truck in the freezing cold and rain, and lift heavy loads. Thank you!"-- Hmm.. thankful.. OK, but not grateful... lets not forget the actions they made to put them in this situation, and that being "rewarded" to participate is a desired action by inmates.. We can be thankful, for sure, that these men are trying to change their past..be also thankful for our social services programs that support their continuing growth once their time has been served.
---
From the "can we all say, 'Thank you, President Trump!' " department - L-E headline/story: "TSYS giving most employees one-time $1,000 cash bonus TSYS giving most employees one-time $1,000 cash bonus" -- Hmmm... Columbus is about to receive ANOTHER nearly $5,000,000.00 in local cash influx ... we just had one announced by AFLAC, and numerous other National companies are already doing so.. Hey, Columbus DIMocrat voters.. remember who didn't feel you deserved a Tax Cut and the benefits of it when you go to the primaries in May and the ballot boxes in November!
---
L-E story: "A failure of the heating system has forced the city to close the Government Center on Wednesday, Columbus Mayor Teresa Tomlinson said. * The Government Center’s tower and east and west wings will be closed after a part went out on a boiler valve, she said. Normal hours of operations and all city services in these buildings will resume on Thursday. * Government Center Maintenance Supervisor Jerry Gowen said an electrical part on a gas valve for the boiler had to be replaced. " -- Very convenient.. and coincidental.... but do you really believe in coincidences when politicians have their own agenda at stake?
---
L-E headline/story: "Hatch to retire from Senate * Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, the longest-serving Senate Republican, announced Tuesday he will retire at the end of the year, rebuffing the pleas of President Donald Trump to seek an eighth term and paving the way for Mitt Romney, a critic of Trump’s, to run for the seat." -- Hmmm... this will indeed be a epiphany moment for Mitt Romney... does he side with establishment Republicans/RINOs who advised him to back off from pummeling Obama after the first debate which cost him being elected president, or does he embrace the "Make America Great Again" momentum of the Trump policies?
---
From the "if you're a NFL boycotter, you'll understand" department - When did the Rams go back to Los Angeles.. Oh.. and does this mean St Louis doesn't have a team anymore?
---
From the "I wish" department - When Alabama lineman Da'Ron Payne caught that interception and the following TD pass. I wish John Madden had been announcing.. Madden loved "big people" making unexpected splashes.
---
L-E headline: "Customers jam stores as Calif. starts recreational pot sales" -- Well, if there are any consolations, maybe it's they won't have enough money left over to buy gas since the gas tax just went up to 50-cents a gallon.
---
From the "why does McDonald's hire stupid researchers" department - L-E story: "McDonald’s is testing the use of fresh beef in another burger, the latest move by the fast food chain to swap out frozen beef as it seeks to improve its image. * The company said Tuesday that the new burger, called Archburger, is being tested in seven McDonald’s restaurants in Tulsa, Oklahoma. McDonald’s held similar tests for fresh beef Quarter Pounders for about a year before announcing in March that it would roll it out to most of its 14,000 restaurants by the middle of this year. McDonald’s said the latest test is limited, and it is seeking feedback from customers and its restaurants." -- Good grief.. it's not rocket science to know fresh beef tastes better than frozen.. why does McDonald's pay these people?
---
From the "temper tantrum capital of the world" department - L-E headline/story: "Pakistan bashes New Year’s Day tweet by Trump * Pakistan fired back Tuesday after President Donald Trump accused it of harboring terrorists, calling his New Year’s Day tweet “completely incomprehensible. * The government summoned the U.S. ambassador to complain but stopped short of demands by protesting Islamic groups to expel the envoy." -- Hmmm.. "stopped short of" of expelling the American envoy? Guess Pakistan knows how long it's chain is.. and looking at the picture, it's obvious... by the use of English in the protest signs.. that the "protest" was put on for the American mainscream media's benefit.

From the "he almost got it right" department - L-E guest commentary: "Liberals endure plague of purges * BY FRANCIS WILKINSON * Bloomberg View * Liberals are at a loss." -- "liberals are AT a loss"? Liberals ARE a loss!
