Looks like Trump has trivialized mainscream media....again.... Once again, Trump has declined the "invite" to the White House Correspondents Dinner.. looks like mainscream media will stay "all messed up and nowhere to crow".

Do you reckon women Islamic terrorists feel there are 72 virgins waiting for them following a suicide mission?
---
From the "as if we didn't know" department - Online headline: "Trump slams DOJ, FBI over missed document deadline: 'What is going on?'" -- Hmmm... old school politics as usual is my guess... further evidence that the swamp needs draining..We... and I mean the American citizens, need a new law... a toothy law forbidding nepotism in politics... especially in Washington, D.C... it's really depressing to read where the spouse of a politician or government department exec works for another government department or gets government contracts..
---
From the "even the blind liberal finds an acorn...occasionally" department - Bill Maher interviewed "Geraldo"... another journalist.. Marlow Stern started his Daily Beast "report" of it with, "There was a time, believe it or not, when Geraldo Rivera was considered an intrepid news reporter." -- Talk about hitting the nail on the head!
---
From the " 'political correctness' still walks among us.. unfortunately" department: Online story: "An upstate New York nurse was charged with decapitating her 7-year-old son with a large-blade kitchen knife in a grisly attack 10 days after she was released from a hospital psych ward, according to police. * Hanane Mouhib, 36, was charged with second-degree murder Thursday after police, responding to frantic 911 calls, found the first-grader, Abraham Cardenas, in the family’s Sweden, N.Y., home. * According to court papers, Mouhib stabbed the child in the upper back and cut his neck, severing his head.
* "There's absolutely no explanation for this," Sheriff Todd Baxter said at a news conference Friday." -- "There's absolutely no explanation for this"? .. Hello! Excuse me.. Does the name "Hanane Mouhib" not give a clue? Did the sheriff bother to notice that the name, "Hanane Mouhib" is probably Islamic... and in her eyes this was "OK"...

L-E headline/story: "Vacant lot offers blank canvas for Columbus * The property is the former Booker T. Washington Apartments, which were built in 1941 at the intersection of Victory Drive and Veterans Parkway, the latter known years ago as Fourth Avenue * “We can screen out what we think are not good uses for our community. We would look to get something for the highest and best use of that property.”" -- "best use of property"? You know.. this is typical government inefficiency.. "tear down without a clue for future use"... I think the priority now would be for a use that does not include "Curb cuts" on Veterans Parkway or Victory Drive.. the intersection is already inefficient.. but what might be a better priority is for business(es) that do not open at night nor weekends... no business (other than a parking lot) would survive during South Commons/Civic Center events.

L-E headline: "COLUMBUS * Rapper killed outside Pizza Hut" -- 11
---
L-E commentary headline: "What government interest is served by disenfranchising felons?
* BY GEORGE WILL Washington Post Writers Group" -- Good grief... it's not about "government interests... it's about America's and it's citizens' interests and safety.. without "rules" convicted criminals (versus political criminals) could rule the roost and write their own rules) like the current "political criminals" do.. Our forefathers recognized that there have to be rewards for obeying the laws of the country... and voting rights are the most important one.
---
As skilled as he is, Rory McIlroy is not "good for the game".. he attitude (if I'm not going to win, why try) stinks .. .. The Masters...watching McIlroy trivialize himself made pulling for everyone else even more fun.
Speaking of the Masters, I think I saw our Jimmy Blanchard out on the First tee Sunday.
---
From the "when we BUILD THE WALL, California should be on the other side" department - Online headline/story: "Proposed Law Says Suspects With Imitation Weapons Can't Be Shot By Police" -- You know.. California legislators who vote for this bill should have to work a week as a patrol officer in a large California city until they have to face/arrest someone who's actually carrying a gun before being able to vote on this asinine bill.
---
L-E commentary headline: "What government interest is served by disenfranchising felons?
* BY GEORGE WILL Washington Post Writers Group" -- Good grief... it's not about "government interests... it's about America's and it's citizens' interests and safety.. without "rules" convicted criminals (versus political criminals) could rule the roost and write their own rules) like the current "political criminals" do.. Our forefathers recognized that there have to be rewards for obeying the laws of the country... and voting rights are the most important one.

From the "have you seen the log in your own eye" department - Online story: "Apple CEO Tim Cook has doubled down on his objection to repealing DACA, an immigration policy which temporarily protects certain young, otherwise undocumented immigrants from deportation. * "The DACA situation is one that I am truthfully, as an American, deeply offended by," Cook says, according to an excerpt of an interview with MSNBC's Chris Hayes and Recode's Kara Swisher set to air Friday, April 6. * "The DACA situation is not an immigration issue. It's a moral issue. This is a moral issue," Cook says." -- "Moral issue"? Cook is one to talk about morals... wasn't too long ago we found out his company was intentionally "slowing down" our Apple electronics after a certain period ... in order to make the public want to buy a replacement product.. Cook is wrong about something else... DACA is not a LAW.. it's a one-man policy decision to CIRCUMVENT EXISTING LAWS... what is MORAL about this?

Did you see the furor of an attack on a busload of UFC fighters by Conor McGregor? Wonder how much he percent was of all the free publicity and interest it creates for the next UFC Extravaganza?
---
L-E headline: "Developer wraps up Columbus project, eyes faster-growing cities" --Confirmation of the failure of Mayor Tom-LYING-son's "Reign of Error-After-Error"... and another reason Amy Bryan should not be considered for a Council Seat... nor.. for that matter.. extension of her job - Executive VP - Community Development and growth - at the Chamber...
---
From the "justice appears in many ways" department - Online headline/story: "‘Hamilton’ star Lin-Manuel Miranda has shingles * The 38-year-old wrote the book, music and lyrics and starred in the Broadway smash “Hamilton.”" -- "Broadway smash"? It got more notoriety from "dissing" the Vice President..
---
I'm glad I wasn't in Superior Court Judge McBride's robe last week...I would have had an even harder time at not being able to sentence all 3 of the monsters to death .. this was caused not only by a "jury fail" but a "SYSTEM fail" as well.. The young age of the monsters prevented consideration of what they really deserved.. Think about it..all the time it took to travel 20 miles..the discussions..the plotting..the venom that built up among the 3..as the trudged for hours to get there. Let's all pray..Not only for the Short family..but for the monsters...pray they find remorse...
---
After 9 days, the body of the 4 year old child that drowned while fishing with his father was recovered..praise God.. the healing can begin.. pray for the family...
---
From the "bias, what bias" department - Online headline/story: "Sen. Kamala Harris raises eyebrows on 'Ellen' with Trump joke * (After a light-hearted question about 'tattoos") She was then asked, “If you had to be stuck in an elevator with either President Trump, (Vice President) Mike Pence or (Attorney General) Jeff Sessions, who would it be?” * “Does one of us have to come out alive?” Harris asked, prompting cheers from the audience. Harris laughed hysterically at the joke and took a second to compose herself. * The San Francisco Chronicle’s report pointed out that “Even DeGeneres applauded the senator's wit.” -- Good grief.. only in Liberalville can an alternative life-styler ask a minority politician a "funny" question about political violence to a white person and mainscream media laugh along..
What would have happened if the situation was reversed?
---
From the "I told you so" department - In my blog last week, I mentioned the "GoFundMe" account set up for Andrew McCabe and stated that McCabe should have to report the funds as "ordinary income", and the donors report their :donations" as gifts (and pay the gift taxes as required). Well here's a follow-up headline/story: "Swamp: Guess Who Set Up Andrew McCabe's Legal Fund? * it turns out, McCabe's pay day wasn't a result of a grassroots effort to defend him against false attacks. The GoFundMe page was set up by a Washington, D.C. lobbying firm connected to President Barack Obama. * Melissa Schwartz is a crisis and communications consultant who currently works for The Bromwich Group.
* She’s also McCabe’s present spokesperson. * The Bromwich Group is a K Street consulting and PR firm headed by Michael R. Bromwich. * Immediately prior to founding the firm, Bromwich served as the first director of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management under President Barack Obama." -- This literally.. STINKS.. and donors revenue sources need to be vetted and audited.
---
From the "if you can make it in New York City, you can make it anywhere" department -
Online story: "A Georgia sheriff's "welcome" sign warns visitors that "if you kill someone, we might kill you back." * Harris County Sheriff Mike Jolley, who has displayed unusual signs before, placed the message Tuesday near the department office, according to Patch. * "Our citizens have concealed weapons," the sign read. "If you kill someone, we might kill you back. We have ONE jail and 356 cemeteries. Enjoy your stay!" * Jolly told local media outlets that the sign, which he said he paid for, was meant to be "tongue-in-cheek."" -- "meant to be 'tongue-in-cheek'"? Nah... it's meant to get him re-elected as long as he wants to be sheriff.. Vote for Mike Jolley!

The Chinese government has just ordered Bibles and other books " without publication numbers" (whatever that means) pulled from store shelves. The clamp down on the books comes as the Vatican and Beijing negotiate to appoint bishops in China. China’s officially atheist government doesn't like organized movements it can't control, including religious ones.... Hmmm... no wonder China is having difficulties with Trump.. China is not use to having to deal with an ORGANIZED and PURPOSE focused American President.
---
From the "only in California" department - Remember the Menendez brothers.. Kyle and Erik? You know the brothers in California that were suddenly "orphaned" back in 1989... well, the California Penal System just reunited them after being separated for over 20 years. Good grief.. they cold-bloodily shot...and shot...and shot... and shot.. their parents... with shotguns in order to get "their inheritance" while they were young enough to spend it... You know the only "reunion" the Menendez brothers deserved is in the grave yard.
---
From the "all the characteristics of "fake news" department - Online story: "President Donald Trump's lawyers are reportedly getting him ready for a possible sit-down with special counsel Robert Mueller as part of the ongoing Russia investigation, CNN reported on Friday. * According to CNN's sources, the meetings between Trump and his legal team are "short and informal," and consist of possible subjects that Mueller and his investigative team may want to discuss." -- "according to sources"? IN other words.. either there's a "leak" or CNN is just throwing "balloons" into the air to see which ones may fly.

Tomorrow evening.. beginning at 6:00 at the Double Tree hotel on Sidney Simons, the Muscogee County Republican Party is holding an informal session with all the candidates for Columbus' Mayoral Race being there... and accessible. You can also make dinner reservations for 7:00 @ $15.00 a head - http://rsvp.muscogeegop.org. Otherwise .. just show up if you want to meet these folks..
---
From the "confirmation of my claims that ANY of the J R Allen on/off ramps can be nominated for EITHER the BEST .. or WORST.. ramp' department - L-E Headline/Story: " Diamond Interchange coming to Buena Vista Road to ease traffic bottleneck at I-185 * After the Buena Vista Road project is completed, Jones said a similar design will improve the Bradley Park Drive ramp at J.R. Allen Parkway. A Smiths Station High School senior was killed in 2011 after losing control of her SUV while driving on J.R. Allen Parkway." -- To boot, the Buena Vista Road Project is pegged at $47+ MILLION . no telling HOW MUCH one at Bradley Park will cost just for the rights-of-way. .. and combined with the "roundabout" at Bradley Park and River Road, all we need is a "loop-the-loop" connecting them, and we'll have an entertainment site to rival "Great Wolf" for tourism..
Hmmm... one thing I note is that we probably need to go take driving lessons in England to learn how to drive on the other side of the roads.
---
Did something Friday night that I haven't done in 2 years...ordered a Papa John's Pizza...and it was good. Papa John's ended it's status as the Official Pizza of the NFL after fan boycotts of NFL sponsors cut into the business.
---
Looks like Arby's will be the next corporation apologizing for clever advertising...Arby's is running and ad featuring gyros.. after mispronouncing "gyro" (gear-o, jy-ro), the announcer just calls them "Mediterranean Tacos". Heh heh heh...
---
My granddaughter had strep .. the pharmacy filled the prescription for Celfindor and handed it over and it was completely coveted by her insurance..but the pharmacy notes reveal the cost..and I'm sure it will be submitted for reimbursement...was $393.00 for a 100 'ML bottle of an antibiotic... I ran the medicine through the GOODrx app on my phone, and the same medicine at the same pharmacy was available for $37.93 with the discount. That's less than 10% of the cost that will be submitted for insurance.. This crap is why our insurance is so...no, TOO..high.

When I was in Elementary school, recess was my favorite time.. Now that I'm in the "school" of life, my favorite time is when Congress is in recess.

From the "only in California" department - Remember the Menendez brothers.. Kyle and Erik? You know the brothers in California that were suddenly "orphaned" back in 1989... well, the California Penal System just reunited them after being separated for over 20 years. Good grief.. they cold-bloodily shot... and shot... and shot.. and shot their parents with shotguns in order to get "their inheritance" while they were young enough to spend it... You know the only "reunion" the Menendez brothers deserved is in the grave yard.
---
Here's another thing to attache to Obama's "legacy"... passing gas... Yep.. Obama drew a line in the sand challenging ASSwad, but we know all about building a foundation on anything but solid rock...too bad mainscream media didn't hold Obama's "feat to the fire" when the world news was about ASSwad's "Pootin" more than it was about Putin.
---
Saw a "previously unpublished picture" of Slick Willie as President puffing on (versus dipping one) a Cuban Cigar.. Hmmm.. you know, unless that Cuban cigar had a pre-1962 date on it, it was illegal.. but then again.. all the Clintons have felt they were/are "above the law" the rest of us must adhere to.
---
Online headline: "Did the Kennedy family try to put the kibosh on the new film ‘Chappaquiddick?’" -- DOH! Of course they did.. just as they blocked the investigation in 1969..
---
Online headline/story: "Horse trailer carrying at least 18 illegal immigrants crashes in Southern California * A witness told the California Highway Patrol that the two-axle trailer being hauled by a pickup truck began to fishtail and eventually tipped onto its right side along northbound Interstate 8." -- Question: How does a pick-up truck towing a horse trailer with illegal aliens get on a US Interstate Highway? ... Answer: there was no "WALL" where he crossed the border..... build "THE WALL"!
---
From the "myth" department -- Online story: "London police have shot a man dead after the man reportedly claimed he had a weapon. * Police said the man was shot and killed early Monday morning in Romford in east London." -- Hmmm... a London police officer CARRYING a weapon for self defense... hmmm.. there goes the last argument that libs have...
---
For years I've contended the best name for the water sculpture on Bropadway across from the River Center should be "Viagra Falls".. the more bills we get from the CWW for Sewage and Garbage fees, I think the Columbus Water Works' original name for the project was the "Up Yours".
---
The Columbus mayoral candidates will all be on 'view" Tuesday evening at the Double Tree.. I hope the Republicans will hold a similar event with the Council Post 10 candidates.. I hope Amy Bryant will be asked that since she is the Executive VP of the Chamber's "Community Development and Growth" department, how does she think she can help as a Coucilor what she hasn't done for Columbus at the Chamber? Oh, and ask her "What's so amazing"?
---
The L-E "Two Cents Worth" posted this comment on developer Bud Allen's comments about Columbus no growing like the rest of the State: "“Remove tax freeze so those of us retiring here doesn’t pay triple/monthly on taxes then those who are from here or from that time. People moving on to city’s with less taxes.” — Karen Schleter" -- Don't know of Schleter but she's just wrong! It's the Tax Freeze" that keeps homeowners SAFE from "tax and waste" politicians like our current mayor..A recent story about the current real estate condition said Columbus is now in a "seller's market" which means there are more buyers than sellers... this means BOTH sellers and buyers are happy to know their property taxes will remain affordable as the years ahead go by.
