I wonder if any of the Democrat Senators/Representatives who have... or will... announce their intention to "run" for the Democratic Party nomination have stopped to think... uh... "FEEL"...about what they actually offer in the form of accomplishment and leadership. Think about it... none has anything to boast about other than they either let Schumer or Pelosi control everything they did or said.... They are sorta like being "zombie puppets".

Think about this... Trump keeps his promises he campaigned on, and MSM-13 chastises him.. while a number of Democrats who actually kept their campaign promise of not voting for Pelosi as Speaker, are being hung out to dry by MSM-13 as Pelosi now punishes them with awkward Committee assignments.. there appears to be a pattern here.. MSM-13 does not like politicians who keep their campaign promises if they are anti-Socialists.

Online headline: "House overwhelmingly passes resolution condemning Iowa GOP Rep. King's racist comments" -- Well.. while more than justified.. it's somewhat tainted when you realize the 240 Democrats would condemn any.. and all.. Republicans for existing.. but what's missing are such actions against the anti-Semite positions of Democrats Tlaib, Omar, and Gabbard.

From the "why is the person most affected always the last to know?" department - Online headline: "Bob Costas announces his NBC career is over" -- Most of us knew this years ago...

From the "let me guess who appointed him" department - Online headline/story: "An Iraqi Man Deported By ICE Must Be Returned To The US, A Judge Ordered * The order to return Subaihani stems from July 2017, when the ACLU successfully got Goldsmith to block the deportation of around 1,400 Iraqis who had been targeted for removal, most for overstaying their visas or being convicted of crimes. Hundreds of these Iraqis were arrested in June throughout the country, mainly in Michigan. * Goldsmith found that the Iraqis, many of whom are religious minorities, would face torture or death based on their residence in the US, their publicized criminal records, or their religious affiliation." -- Excuse me.. but when a Visa or criminal violation is involved, how can a judge use religion as an excuse to block the law? Oh... and you were right.. US District Judge Mark Goldsmith of District 9 was appointed by Obama.. and the decision is political opinion versus the law of the land.

I have to reiterate my opinion about the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.. Jerome Powell has led 4 rates this past year alone when there's been no inflation issues to warrant such. I was surprised Trump named him the Chair early in 2018 since Powell was appointed to the Fed by Obama in 2012. Trump should have known Powell's political allegiance to "the Left".

Online story: "A senior administration official told Fox News that the president had invited Democrats to join his lunch with members of Congress in the Roosevelt Room shortly after noon. But moments before the session, White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement that nobody took them up on the offer." -- Hmmm.. I'm having a hard time figuring out the Democrats on an issue... did they boycott the White House meal because Pelosi and Schumer told them not to go, or did the food fare in Puerto Rico make them snobs thinking about the possibility that Trump might serve them "fast food"?

Online headline: "De Blasio pitches plan to seize private property of problem landlords, opponents cry ‘communism’" -- "communism"? More like piracy or despotism.. sadly, with the boost of non-citizen voting, it's like two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for dinner, and the entree becomes the lamb.

A Fed Judge has ruled against a Census question concerning "citizenship" .He didn't say the question was illegal but only that policy and procedures weren't correctly followed. The question is valid..and it will be back.. I have a question though: Why would any American object to a question concerning a respondents citizenship status? The Census is used to determine Congressional redistricting assignments.. which should be determined by the number of US citizens.

You know, when Obama was on office, the goal of Democrats was focused on dividing the nation by color..now it seems that the Democrats just want to divide the nation.

Well...no wonder Pelosi doesn't think we need a wall.. according to the House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman, Bennie G. Thompson, foreign terrorists are not an issue for investigations.. he's going to investigate the internal right-wing terrorists. Sick!

Online headline: "Delta CEO: Government shutdown will cost the airline $25 million this month" -- Good grief! You mean we supplement Delta with $300 MILLION annually in tax funds shuffling Federal employees around the country rather than have localized Fed Employees handle situations?

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline: "New migrant caravan leaves Honduras for journey to US border" -- And what does Mexico's President Obrador plan to do at Mexico's Southern Border... another sweep of the "matador's cape" and stockpile more humanity at his Northern Border, or stop them in their tracks?

M/C L-E headline/story: "Muscogee County superintendent recommends closing this school to merge with another * During the board’s monthly work session Monday night, Superintendent David Lewis proposed closing Early College Academy of Columbus and consolidating it with Jordan Vocational High School." -- Hmmm.. I have mixed comments/feelings about this.. the good one is that it's a responsible step financially as State funding will be better realized, and maintenance costs should go down, but is it the best for the students who attend one of the few MCSD schools that show educational excellence.. while it may.. and I emphasize "may".. boost Jordan overall test numbers, it might be a letdown for the students moving in who have had a better focused environment.

Following up on yesterday's comments about the ills of a CSU-MCSD planned guaranteed job for teaching graduates... it's not like CSU is guaranteeing graduates a job in a state school in the city of their preference, nor do I think other school systems would lock-in on such a plan, but there are only so many teaching positions in MCSD, and with slow attrition, non-CSU grads would be hard-pressed to get in without political connections within the system.

Online headline: "Growing number of 2020 Democrats supporting 'Green New Deal' * Wow! Who is going to pay for this? Projections already have this figured out as an additional $4.9 TRILLION cost OVER the normal $4.0 Trillion budget. Think about this.. the Democrat "plan" would add $9.8 TRILLION in National Debt the first two years of a Democrat presidency.. that's even more debt than Obama added in his 8 years..

Well, an answer to a prayer has been received.. drove on Cloverdale Road yesterday... and those large potholes have been fixed... well at least a band-aid was applied..

M/C L-E headline: "Columbus economic outlook ‘optimistic,’ including growth at Fort Benning, in state economy" -- Whatta difference having Trump in the White House, and a new mayor in Columbus makes!
