Couldn't help but laugh at the Schumer and Pelosi response last night..put a blond wig on Pelosi and you'd think you were watching a Saturday Night Live skit of Frank Burns and Hot Lips Hoolihan trying to act moral. They also reminded me of how people use to look trying to occupy an old "phone booth" at the same time.

 

---
I could not believe that the Democrats actually wanted equal time to respond to Trump's speech as their whole public argument is being against our National Security.

 

---
How does Pelosi continue to challenge the border wall as immoral when our Border Agents are so in need of medical supplies/personnel to aid in caring for sick children dragged through the dessert during attempts to illegally cross the border.

 

---
The Democrats are still trying to conceal that the goal for opposing the border wall is only to keep Trump from keeping his promises, but what the public sees is Democrats wanting free access onto our country for criminals and drugs... and Trump wants America safer.

 

---
Oh! What difference does it make whether the 'wall' is made of concrete or steel? The Democrats seem to feel concrete is even less desired than steel, but don't seem to care about security being the important issue.

Last week there was an armed robbery at the CB&T (a.k.a. Synovus) on River Road...To my knowledge, it was never reported in the M/C L-E, and other than day of action, none of the TV stations seems to have followed up on it.. the only things we know are we were told he was armed (didn't see any weapon in the videos), wore a funny looking face mask, and escaped north on River Road o=in a Volvo SUV. Surely there's more to this than we've been told.

After seeing the list of alcohol used on Speaker Pelosi's assigned jet earlier this month, I do believe Trump could win her support of building 'the Wall" by offering to double her liquor budget for trips back and forth between San Francisco and Washington.

That baseball project at Columbus High slipped by public scrutiny .. (remember, the architect announced all the 2015 SPLOST money for baseball field improvements would be concentrated at only 2 schools - Jordan and Kendrick ).... Voters vote on specific projects, and the money is to be used for those projects until completed...funds not needed, can be redirected but not until projects deemed complete, but there's no way the roof projects voted on in previous SPLOSTs came in under the $3.4 million dollars that have been moved over to CHS.

 

---
Remember the female Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr and was accused of being a spy... well, she's just been charged with being a spy...of course MSM-13 fails to mention that she was charged in circumstances not affiliated with the Trumps.

Enigma...Suburu offers it's new Ascent model as either an 8 or 7 passenger vehicle (with only a 113.8" wheelbase). How can 7 or 8 people occupy the same space?

 

---
Online headline: "Federal workers union sues over government shutdown as stalemate continues" -- What this boils down to is a political "parry" by the Democrat-Union coalition. Well....Welcome to reality...it's what the private sector has to deal with all the time...a decreased revenue flow caused layoff. In other words, another merit-less political distraction to fuel mainscream and Democrat whining to avoid the real issue.

 

From the "speaking of the devil" department - Online headline:"Dallas Morning News lays off 43 as company struggles with revenue declines" -- Looks like MSM-13 has experienced first hand what the Democrats are manufacturing.. a "decreased revenue flow".

Online headline/story: "Kellyanne Conway embarrasses CNN’s Jim Acosta during heated exchange: 'You're such a smarta--' * Acosta asked Conway if she could promise that President Trump would tell the truth when addressing the nation on Tuesday night. * "Yes, Jim," Conway shot back, "Can you promise that you will? The whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God? Am I allowed to mention 'God' to you?" * Make sure that goes viral. This is why I’m one of the only people around here who gives you the time of day," Conway said. "You’re such a smarta-- most of the time and I know you want this to go viral." * Conway then told Acosta that “a lot of these people” don’t like him, while pointing to his peers." -- If you do nothing else today, make sure you "share" this with all your FB "friends" and make it "Platinum Viral".

From the "but some are more equal" department department- Online story: Castro grandson under fire for flaunting decadent lifestyle: yachts, fine dining, luxury suites and more"..and don't forget his fine collection of Cuban cigars. This is straight out of "Animal Farm"... 'All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." It's the Communist.. and Democrat... social structure.. If you are a member of the Democratic Party "base", do you feel Pelosi or Schumer or Hellary feel that you and your needs are equal to them and theirs?

And another example of "but some are more equal than others" department - Online headline/story: "Protesters demand California Democratic megadonor Ed Buck's arrest amid second man found dead in his apartment * Protests erupted Tuesday outside the West Hollywood home of prominent Democratic donor Ed Buck, with activists calling for Buck's arrest after a man was found dead in the apartment early Monday -- 17 months after a deceased male escort was discovered there. * "This man has had two dead bodies in his house, and he is still in his house." * Buck, a well-known figure in LGBT political circles, has given more than $500,000 to a range of Democratic groups and candidates — including former President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti. * In July of last year, prosecutors declined to file charges against Buck in the death of Moore. According to a coroner's report, Buck's apartment was full of drug paraphernalia, including 24 syringes containing brown residue, five glass pipes with white residue and burn marks, a plastic straw with possible white residue, clear plastic bags with white powdery residue and a clear plastic bag containing a piece of crystal-like substance." -- Once again, Democrat voter base, do you feel Pelosi or Schumer or Hellary et al feel that you and your needs are equal to them and theirs

From the "do as I say, not as I do" department - Online story: "Presenting a united front at a conference in Atlanta on Friday, the chairman of the Federal Reserve and two predecessors praised the current state of the economy while issuing a full-throated defense of the institution’s independence. * Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has been the target of criticism from President Donald Trump, who accuses the Fed of contributing to the stock market decline by raising interest rates. * “People should know that the Fed has a very strong culture toward acting in a non-political way,” he told the crowd of more than a thousand people." -- "in a non-political way"? Well, it's pretty political when you step into a conference of more than a thousand people and announce you are non-political. The Fed's focus should be entirely on how the economy is negatively effecting inflation, and it isn't...

M/C L-E headline/story: "AROUND TOWN * There’s no place like your home for pests

 

 

HARRIS COUNTY DEMOCRATS MEET

The Harris County Democrats held its last meeting of 2018 at the Fire Station/Community Center in Hamilton. The 2019 Officers elected were: Nicole Baxby, Chair; Tim Edgar, Vice Chair; Jean Macfie, Treasurer; Buddy Walker, Secretary and Tom Johnson reelected as Delegate to the Democratic Party of Georgia.

 

---------------------------------------
M/C L-E headline: "Sandra Davis confirmed as new Clerk of Council" -- Good grief! I thought the City was ready to turn a page on the last 8 years... but apparently not.. Didn't the former Clerk of Council get removed from her job because of an internal audit .. and didn't Sandra Davis train/work under the former Clerk? C'mon, Council.. show us you're ready to move forward!

M/C L-E headline/story: "Man found with 35 fake $100 bills after arrest, police say *
Marquelis Williams, 18, pleaded not guilty to one count of possession of a firearm during commission of a crime, four counts of entering an auto, reckless conduct, two counts of financial transaction card theft and 35 counts of possessing fake $100 bills. Judge Julius Hunter set bonds totaling $38,500 and bound all charges over to Muscogee Superior Court. * Police said the witness was chasing Williams, who then pointed his gun and fired a shot. * Williams also was charged with obstruction of a law enforcement officer and possession of marijuana. * Williams was represented by public defender Erik Smith who asked the judge to reduce the $1,000 bond on each counterfeit bill. (The judge) agreed and reduced bond to $500 on each bill." -- Wait a minute.. where's the charge for the unlawful discharge of a firearm within the City limits, and attempted murder! And being granted a bond reduction... and we wonder why we have so much recidivist crimes on our streets...

 

---
M/C L-E headline/story: "2nd man charged in Houston girl’s drive-by slaying * Authorities announced Tuesday that a second black man has been charged in the fatal drive-by shooting of a 7-year-old Houston black girl, whose death her family had initially believed was racially motivated. " -- Hmmm... and there hasn't been an apology issued by the family of Jazmine Brown for lying about it being a white man who shot her, nor an apology from Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee or MSM-13 for "stirring up" a racial furor based on Jazmine's families' lie. And what about any charges against Jazmine's family members who .. basically.. committed a "hate crime" of their own, as well as "obstructed justice" by promoting the deception?

 

---
M/C L-E headline: "Man hurts 20 in hammer attack" -- Hold your breath... it doesn't n]matter that this happened in China, but I expect Sen Diane Feinstein, D-CA, will be at the Senate podium introducing a new "hammer control" bill that will require carpenters and maintenance employees in America to have colonoscopy-type background checks.

From the "hey NFL.. you're next!" department - M/C L-E headline and "story": "MLB
Baseball payrolls drop for first time since ’10 * Spending on Major League Baseball payrolls dropped last season for the first time since 2010, an $18 million decrease attributable to drug and domestic violence suspensions and a player retiring at midseason." -- You know.. the sign of a troubled industry is when they search for any reason to blame that's "not the truth".. The truth is that actual (physical) attendance id down.. so's TV viewership.. and baseball does not support itself on "the gate/concessions" but on TV contracts.. and advertisers are demanding more accountability of the viewer numbers. This is coming to the NFL.. and the NFL can blame itself for bot stepping up to defend our military and law enforcement officers or our Flag and National Anthem..

 

---
From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline: "A growing number of Americans blame Trump for shutdown" -- Dang.. MSM-13 really likes to "milk" definitions of words.. Usually, MSM-13 goes with "some" like in "some people" or "more" as in "more people"...sorta suggesting a mental picture of "a lot of people", but we know it's "the truth"> This is the first time I've seen the phrase "a growing number" used to imply such.. Well, "2" is a "growing number" compared to "1".. What I see is a the public appreciating Trump more and more for his concerns to keep promises and protect our country's future.

 

---
Online headline: "Alabama radio station accidentally airs commercial for national championship gear after loss to Clemson" -- "accidentally"? Really.. if I were a manufacturer of gear/clothing of Alabama Championship stuff, I might run the ad intentionally just to get disgruntled ..or sadistic.. fans to buy it in protest rather than eat all the merchandise myself..

 

---
Good grief! Liberals are so blind to what they preach versus what they do.. Just saw a "hack" on how to keep house cats out of indoor plants... stick pointy toothpicks all around the "pot" so cats won't step up and "pee" in the soil... sorta of reminds me of the "punji pits" the Vietnam soldiers dug to injure/kill our soldiers back in the 60's/70s.
