Liberals are so hypercritical...they will protest protecting old forests by not allowing proven methods of harvesting and removing 'tinder's from the forest 'floor", yet will celebrate a clear cut tree removal in order to create an area to erect a windmill or solar panel energy farm.
 
Oh! And what's more renewable than trees? You cut some down and plant more for the future... yo]u cannot do that with windmills and solar panels.

Online headline: "Poor audited more frequently than millionaires, IRS data shows" -- Makes perfect sense... the wealthy hire CPA's to figure out what they owe in taxes, while "the poor" buy into many seasonal tax services promising the most "refund" whether it is owed or not.

What a difference! The Commander in Chief spoke at the Commencement of the US Air Force Academy and told them about the opportunities for greatness that awaits them. Hellary, Chief Whiner, also spoke at a Commencement service (I'm not going to embarrass the college any further by mentioning its name) and made the graduates 'moment in the Sun' all about why she didn't win..of course, in true Hellary form, none of what she said was true...nor will help the graduates make a difference in their lives.

From the. "Say it ain't so, Kirby" department - after years of enjoying the alcohol-free smell of Sanford Stadium, why is Georgia going to jeopardize a fun family experience.. it's been wonderful not having drunken 'fans' near by making everyone around them miserable.
 
---
Remember when Hellary was asked whether she by had anything to do with "wiping her e-mails" off her personal server...and she responded, "with a cloth? Did I wipe it down with a cloth, and then that she didn't have any knowledge of how to do that? Well, she's going to be a key-note speaker at a Cyber Defense Summit.. talk about "Irony"...hmmm, I wouldn't be surprised if she shows up on the dais carrying an Iron.

Looks like the Democrats are releasing their future game plan. Alabama's Democrat US Senator Doug Jones is "out" for counting all people, not just US citizens in next years Census.
 
---
Looks like Mexico IS going to pay for "the WALL" after all... as promised..tariffs on all products crossing into America until Mexico takes responsibility for policing its side of the border.
 
---
How many saw/heard Mueller recant his press conference tripe yesterday after AG William Barr mentioned Mueller's "triple denial" of any evidence of a crime. .. Oh, and how about the NYTimes telling its reporters to back off from sourcing Maddow and other Fake News stations... don't look for it on our local crappie-wrapper.
 
---
President Trump's trip to Japan upstaged Victoria's Secret...we now know that Sumo wrestlers invented the "Thong".
 
---
Hmmm..Disney and Netflix are threatening to abandon Georgia if the "heartbeat bill" goes into effect. Of course, Disney had no problem filming in China where human rights don't exist, or Netflix in Malaysia where it's against the law to be gay and Sharia Law rules.
 
---
Maybe it's time for the Georgia Legislature and Governor to pass a law prohibiting movie companies from showing movies produced by Disney and Netflix and any other movie company threatening to boycott /abandon Georgia.
 
---
I heard a comment that most journalists...and I say that 'tongue-in-cheek'... freely admit they didn't know anyone who voted for Trump. What a sad state journalism has devolved into.
 
---
Online headline: "Americans Favor Fifteen Dollars an Hour for Congress" -- But only when they are actually working!
 
---
Seems the Democrats' "rally call" is "no one is above the law"....hmmm ..how about all those illegal aliens they protect from ICE, DEPORTATION, and in SANCTUARY CITIES?
 
---
With the Democrats obvious lynch mob mentality concerning President Trump, you would think black voters would be sensitive about the past lynching history of the Democrat Party coming back to life.
 
---
You know, how many pro-abortionists have ever sat down with their mothers and discussed their mothers' thoughts about aborting grandchildren?
 
---
From the Hey Beto O'Jerk.. tell me again this is not a border crisis" department - Online headline: "Over 1,000 illegal immigrants apprehended in El Paso sector, largest group ever at single time, sources say" -- And that was just the number of the ones "caught"!

Since it has become an issue here in Columbus, I want to talk about the idiocy of "jaywalking" as a crime. When I was about 7, I learned how to determine the safety of crossing a street from my mother and grandmother.. look both ways, and if it's clear, cross the street briskly and cautiously.. and never forget that cars are bigger than you, and will hurt if you get hit... and if traffic is heavy, walk to a street corner if there there is a stop sign or stoplight. That's not only good advice for today as well, but it highlights a certain folly of making it a police matter.. Sometimes, we have to be in a hurry to get somewhere quicker than following the safest routes... come to think of it, our police officers.. ambulance drivers, too, often break laws to get to an "emergency call". They.. and me too, feel it's OK in certain circumstances to taking a short cut (U-turns or driving the wrong way on a one way street, speeding, even California rolls at traffic signs/lights) or breaking a safety rule that may make a difference in another's life. Issuing a jaywalker a $200.00 ticket/fine is just a heavy-handed way to "tax" citizens and raise revenues for the City.. and it also takes a police officer off the streets to testify in Court who might be able to prevent another crime.
 
---
Talking about police reminded me of "donuts".. so I'm gonna talk about donuts...I had noticed my favorite local donuts had been getting smaller even though they were getting bigger in costs.. It's not just a local donut issue either. Recently, I "bought" some "FUNd Raiser" coupons for a publicly traded donut emporium, and when I "cashed one in", their donuts were even smaller.. I love donuts, but something has to change..I don't really mind paying a little more for a product I enjoy, but I hate paying MORE when the product itself has been 'down-sized' as well.
 
---
Mueller's speech reminded me of an old Florida campaign joke where one candidate gave a speech saying his opponent's sister "was a thespian, and the candidate was an avowed homosexual. " Purely capitalizing on the desires of his supporters desire to believe negative things even when they know the truth is still how Democrats approach politics.
 
---
Online story: "A former Georgia gubernatorial candidate who campaigned in a "deportation bus" has pleaded guilty to falsely reporting that computer servers were stolen from his office. * Michael Williams, a Republican ex-state senator, was indicted in December in Hall County, northeast of Atlanta, on charges of insurance fraud and lying to investigators. * District Attorney Lee Darragh told news outlets Williams pleaded guilty under Georgia's First Offender Act. He was sentenced last week to serve four years of probation, 120 hours of community service and a $5,000 fine." Probation is not enough! Williams should be deported on his own bus, and have to show "merit" before he's ever allowed back in!
 
 
---
Online headline: "Senator David Perdue: Bullish On Economy, Bearish On National Debt" -- Senator Perdue is spot on about what makes the economy tick, and what makes a nation weak.. It's why we need to support Perdue.. again.. in his 2020 re-election bid.. the alternative could be our ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son who believes higher taxes and uncontrolled spending (like raiding our savings account) are the answers..It has been shown that our $22 TRILLION dollar debt has been created by the "War on Poverty" programs started by LBJ, and accelerated by BHO, and it will take addressing the ills of those programs that still exist before a real chunk of the National Debt can be erased.
 
---
Did you see where the National Spelling Bee Championship was declared an 8-way victory.. and all 8 were give $50,000.00 in championship money? Talk about the ultimate "participation trophies". What's next.. the NCAA declaring the top 8 ranked teams as National Champions?
 
---
Online headline: "Chicago police were told deal was in works with Jussie Smollett" -- You know, if there was one case not needing a deal it was this one.. Jussie Smollett needed to be made an example of for creating a "hate crime hoax". His plan was detrimental to all real victims, regardless of color, and all white people in general....
 
---
From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline/story: "Documents expose political motivation behind census citizenship question * With the Supreme Court thought to be weeks away from ruling on whether a citizenship question can be included in the 2020 census, newly discovered documents suggest that the reason the Trump administration sought to add it in the first place was to provide political advantage to “Republicans and non-Hispanic Whites.” -- Good grief! It's all US citizens of color.. whether white, black, brown, yellow, red, or pink.. that will be cheated if non-citizens are counted in the Census. One only has to look at how many Congressional seats have been added to California from past Censuses when the question was eliminated.. Now, all American citizens are penalized by the impact California politics have swayed our laws and social programs..
 
---
So Obama was "captured" playing various sports with Washington, DC children.. and he looked dominant.. guess the DNC had the "fix" in for him as they did for Hellary against Bernie in 2016..
 
---
Cher posted a rather obscene and homophobic "tweet" about {President Trump going to prison.. she deleted it (courageous.. NOT) when public sentiment chastised her.. but when she did,, she said she was not "sorry" for posting it.. Cher.. you are wrong... you are  "sorry" ... one sorry excuse for a woman..
 
---
From the "wait for the other shoe to drop" department - Online headline: "AOC and Ted Cruz find common ground on lobbying ban" -- Wanna bet by Monday whether AOC changes her mind?
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Repairing flood damage to Springer Opera House is costing over $2 million" -- Flood? It was a street water system blowout! Remember how the Water Works.. in conjunction with then Mayor Frank "Walking Bridge" Martin, put a "gun" to our heads threatening the tripling of our the water rates if we didn't vote for a "bond issue" that would take care of ALL our water pipes and sewer pipe issues. Obviously all issues were not corrected. Looks like we taxpayers are going to get stuck again if there is an insurance shortage.
 
---
From the "I know I've got your vote, so I no longer need to cater to you" department - M/C headline/story: "Columbus LGBT pride festival has Drag Queen story time, music, more * Former Columbus Mayor and U.S. Senate Candidate Teresa Tomlinson will receive the Lifetime Achievement Leadership Award. Tomlinson is not expected to appear, Hobbs said." -- Is this not a typical Democrat political ploy?
 

---
From the "Bias? What bias?" department - M/C L-E headline/story: "Prosecutors push back on enforcing new state abortion laws * The Associated Press reached out to nearly two dozen district attorneys across seven states" -- "nearly 2 dozen district attorneys over 7 states"? Hardly a true sampling, and only over one aspect of some of the laws.. and I imagine every on the AP contacted were Democrats.. who's betting against this?

From the "San Francisco is definitely a sanctuary city... it's a sanctuary for insanity!" department - HuffPOOPOO story: "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) called out President Donald Trump’s proposed merit-based immigration plan on Wednesday, which she claimed was really designed to “make America white again.” * “I don’t know if merit counted for when his wife’s family came into the country,” Pelosi said of Trump. “I don’t know. Maybe it did. God bless them if it did. But he calls that ‘chain migration’ which he wants to get rid of.”" -- Good grief! If Nancy PeLOUSY ever leaves the country again, she'll have a hard time proving she merits being allowed back in! It use to be that I was only offended by her politics, but now her just existing is offensive! Guess she's jealous of all the attention Tlaib, Omar, and Ocasio-Cortez when they speak stupidly. I'm not sure I'll sleep again until November of 2020 knowing for the next 17 months, she'll still be 2nd in line for becoming President!
 
---
Speaking of San Francisco, rumor has it a new TV series about the clean-up of corruption in the streets is coming this Fall.. working title is "The Sweeps of San Francisco" and sponsored by "Charmin" and "Lysol".
 
---
There are two people who do not want to be questioned under oath by the Republicans in Private Congressional Committees or Attorney General Bill Barr.. Robert Mueller and James Comey... there are whole lot of other Democrats getting religion from this.. the Obamas, the Clintons, and Biden bin Lying et al are all praying this never happens.
 
---
What do the professional prima donas feel they are accomplishing when they turn down invitations offered to their teams to visit the White House and meet President Trump? If I was included and had the opportunity to represent my existence in a positive manner to the most powerful person in the world, don't I owe it to myself and the cause/stance I represent to be there and "shine"?
 
---
Hmmm... after some additional analyzation of her ability to gather consensus, I've come to believe Sen Elizabeth Warren may be able to substantiate her claims to be.. in part anyway.. an Indian... unfortunately, we need our leader to be a Chief!
 
---
You know, the difference between President Trump and the Democrats is leadership.. Trump just puts his commitment to greatness out there and voters know where he stands and what he wants to achieve for America's future.. Democrats, on the other hand.. promise every group something they want so they will vote for them, but cannot deliver a finished product because they probably promised another group they wouldn't go that way.
 
---
Mueller appears to believe himself above the law when he says he's not going to testify again on his report. Doesn't he realize that he's given up all his rights to avoid subpoenas by resigning? Either McConnell will have to bring him in to make him explain his responses..and actions/lack of actions on the Steele Dossier and the FISA warrants. Or, President Trump should have Barr arrest him.. if necessary, and have him testify under oath in front of a Grand Jury.
 
---
Think about Mueller..not many people could ever present 'evidence' that they hadn't committed a crime, but the Constitution doesn't require this. It 's up to the prosecutor to present evidence that some DID commit a crime. It's backed up by the 5th Amendment.
 
---
Mueller just rewrote the definition of double-negative-speak when he explained the he "didn't not" say what he said.
 
---
Mueller..what an @-hole! He said he didn't have evidence that the President DIDN'T commit a crime...BS..what he didn't have was EVIDENCE that Trump DID commit a crime!
 
---
So Netflix is reserving it's decisions to pull out of GA depending on court rulings for/against the "heartbeat bill". I tell you what, if Netflix leaves GA, this Georgian will leave Netflix..
 
---
Amazing... this ought to have the "climate changers" heads exploding.. This is the worst year for tornadoes in "Tornado Alley". Hmmm... wasn't 1950 69-years ago? How do Ocasio-Cortez and Algore explain why the World didn't implode 12 years later in 1962?
 
---
"Country before Party"? Words straight from the mouth of Senator Kamala Harris on the campaign trail...let me ask, Senator Harris, how did you vote on funding the Wall?
---
Let's see... Hellary said that Trump supporters are "deplorable...".. Ilhan Ohmygod just said Latinos are "without merit".. we already know what PeLOUSY feels about the "homeless" in San Francisco so you would think the NAACP and BLM would be asking what PeLOUSY privately feels about blacks?

---
Hey, Columbus, GA Council! You know.. when the local budget gets balanced by using the "savings account" for basic needs, not only does it mean the Fund Balance is dwindling, it also mean the Mayor/Council are not trying to find ways to build it up for when we really need it to survive extraordinary circumstances.
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Mueller refuses to clear Trump of obstruction" -- Hmmm.. then it's Mueller who failed.. It was his job to present evidence OF A CRIME which obviously he couldn't.
 
---
Did I miss something.. not too long ago, NYC Mayor Bill de Bl@sio threw his hat into the Democrat presidential circus as it's 24th monkey.. Today I see it's down to 22.. who left?
 
---
Hey, Columbus Council...Back in 2009, my bride and I opened a business to provide a party facility for young children's birthday parties.. we ended up on Broadway ("My Party Place".. now "Your Pie"), but our first preference was to buy a gingerbread decorate house in the Historic District figuring a bright or pastel exterior would create a special aura for tea parties and such.. we were met negatively .. almost hostilely.. by realtors who were adamant that the Historic District would not approve such a business venture because of the lack of parking available in the District. We know that there are no more parking spaces today than then, so what's changed?
 
---
Who the hell is Alyssa Milano? She trolled a John Voight statement about Trump being the best President since Abraham Lincoln. I'm not going to wast my time/energy "Googling", so anyone who knows (before Googling) who ..or what.. she is .. please inform us.. No cheating by looking her up now.
 

---
You know, there's one thing inherently wrong with the MSM-13 and Democrats complaint that Russia interfered with the 2016 election.. Why would the Russians WANT Trump vs Hellary.. Russia already was in bed with Hellary via the Uranium deal, and with the Clinton Foundation via extraordinary donations.

Online story: "Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Tex, called out Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, over a now-deleted tweet that suggested having a merit-based immigration system would disadvantage Latino migrants." -- Good grief! Not only do Democrats believe Trump supporters are deplorable but now believe Latinos are without merit!

HuffPOOPOO headline/story: "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reveals chilling morning ritual in face of death threats * “I‘ve had mornings where I wake up & the 1st thing I do w/ my coffee is review photos of the men (it’s always men) who want to kill me,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted." -- Hmmm.. I guess the DNC is really worried about how the base will vote after listening to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has revealed to the world how ALL Democrats feel. HuffPOOPOO headline/story: "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reveals chilling morning ritual in face of death threats * “I‘ve had mornings where I wake up & the 1st thing I do w/ my coffee is review photos of the men (it’s always men) who want to kill me,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted." -- Hmmm.. I guess the DNC is really worried about how the base will vote in 2020 after listening to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has revealed to the world how ALL Democrats actually feel.
 
---
I just wish the Democrats expressed as much concern about the investigations of Ted Kennedy's Chappaquiddick murder of Kopechne, and the "suicide" of the Clinton's lawyer, Vince Foster.. also, knowing more about the plane crash that took out Ron Brown from Clinton's Cabinet, and take your pick of Obama or Biden issues.
 
---
With a projected estimate of $500,000.00 to repair, those two pools in Columbus which are having their 2nd year closed for use, here's a question about how much revenue is not being realized. Surely information is available for this.This should be done BEFORE any property tax raises are discussed.
 
---
The NCAA College Baseball World Series brackets have been filled. Out of the 64 teams, the SEC has 6.of the top 16 seeds, and 10 of the 14 SEC teams have been selected...awesome! Hmmm, and like football, 3 of the 4 teams not invited are in the SEC East.
 
---
Still waiting...still waiting for the sales price on the 2015 transaction that put the property at 2551 Wynnton Road under control of Hilton GBT Properties which has tried to convert the property to high density, federally assisted housing falling under a T.A.D. tax break that Ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son left us holding the bag..It's already under valued, but how how much more tax revenues could be generated if the true Fair Market Value were known?
 
---
Hey Bernie...you other libs too. My third daughter just graduated from college with zero student loan debt as did my first two....if you are elected, who will I call for reimbursement for all I paid?
 
---
Hey, Columbus Council...a house at the corner of Cloverdale and Mobley Rds is in violation of our animal regulations.unless the owner has a valid Kennel License/Permit. There are a minimum of 6 large protection/security dogs in pens to the side of the house.
 
---
Hey SC Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg...If fetal tissue/organs from abortions..especially partial birth ones, can be sold, and the abortion provider or the woman involved benefit, then there's a whole new realm of ethics involved, and allowing this to continue 'aborts' your definition of "when life begins".
 
---
Online headline: "$19 billion disaster aid bill blocked again in the House by GOP dissenter" -- The nerve of Bishop..trying to get a bill to give S. GA farmers hurricane relief through without a recorded vote after he voted against it last fall because it had money in the bill for 'the Wall".
 
---
You know, if MSM-13 reported all... even HALF.. the good things Trump has brought to our country, even the Democrat base would be happy Hellary wasn't elected .
 
---
You know... If the economy Obama/Biden bin Lying left for the next president was half as good as Biden bin Lying says it was, Hellary would have easily won running on a 3rd term of Obama/Biden bin Lying.
 
---
HuffPOOPOO headline: "Pope Francis says he is willing to condemn border wall directly to President Trump" -- Hmmm... well, POOP Francis .. why don't don't you give us a history lesson about WHY there's a wall built around the Vatican? I know it was to keep Muslims terrorists of the age OUT OF VATICAN CITY! Oh, and when will you reveal YOUR plan to have the wall taken down?
 
---
Did you see the "inside-the-park'home-run" by a Tampa Devil Rays player? Did it not revive memories of either your own or your child's Little League days? Did you also notice how many "empty seats" witnessed it? I tell you what, professional players' big salaries are about to end an era because the "money" is coming from TV contracts, and we just saw what the NFL did to the personnel airing NFL news.
 
---
From the "I'm betting this is FAKE NEWS: department - Online headline: "Justin Bieber gives homeless man $500 bill, stops to hug nervous young fan" -- Hmm.. the US Treasury stopped supporting bills over $100.00 face value.. but even a $100.00 bill would not be convenient for a homeless person.. $1s, $5s, $10s, or $20s would have been better.
 
---
Michael Avenatti... heh heh heh.. guess we'll see who he thinks is a "good lawyer", for it certainly isn't what he was..wonder if his former clients could file a "no-class" lawsuit against him?
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "US ‘on a tear’ with more than 500 tornadoes in just 30 days" -- This is a "climate change" advocate's nightmare.. it's not cause by warmer weather, but cooler weather merging with warm weather..
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Man gets 18-year sentence in killing of his neighbor" -- Hmm and since it was from 2016, he'll be out in 15 unless he's let out early "because he's was a good kid", and the victim's family and friends will have to deal with the killer. One injection would eliminate so many future problems...
 
---
M/C L-E headline:"$17M contract with special ed firm unsigned, but jobs posted online" -- You know.. the fact that an outsource is going to hire from the Columbus area basically means that the MCSD just doesn't want to deal with the issue.. Hey, MCSB.. make sure this is discussed before extending.. even completing the work contracts with the Superintendent.
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Sports Illustrated magazine sold for $110M" -- "Sports Illustrated"? .. I do believe that another name is more appropriate since Bruce Jenner's alter-ego" has been signed to do a bathing suit "cover" for the magazine... I previously suggested "Sports Obfus-CAIT-ed"!

Bart Starr.. and now Bill Buckner...there are a lot of memories when we dig deep that immortalize his skills, but nothing will erase that ground ball in the 6th game of the '86 World Series that went between his legs...
 
---
Big Pharma needs real competition..seems when one gets a treatment approved, others jump in with an alternative, but not at lower prices. Take psoriasis...these are 5 such prescriptions and none are generic. Lowest prices locally on a discount GoodRX card show Humira at $5,131, Cimzia at $4,293, Enbrel at $5131, Simponi at $4,768, and. Remicade at $5,789. One of these companies was "first" and the rest seem to have gone after a share of the market but not in a competitive manner..the followers ..more or less.. basically wanted the same (or higher) margins. None seem interested in an alternative at a lower price which would benefit end-users.
 
---
It was irritating to begin with... then softened to innuendo, but now, I'm loving it when PeLOUSY tries to get at Trump.. she just epitomizes the ineptness of the Socialist movement.
 
---
San Francisco is a 21st Century Tale of Two Cities...There's the City of extreme wealth created by the high tech industries in the area, and it's City with poop wherever you walk...wait a minute, I'm not smack-talking about the excrement of the homeless, I'm talking about the Democrat politicians out panhandling for donations from the wealthy millennials.
 
---
Online headline: "San Diego authorities close entire Imperial Beach shoreline over contamination from Mexico" -- "contamination"? How about sewage.. raw, untreated excrement. where are the "clean air/clean water whackos"? Bet Trump is winning over more and more CA voters..
 
---
Now there are "leaks" about tapes of Dr Martin Luther King Jr's 40+ affairs which have been locked away in the FBI files.. Hmmm... guess the Democrat mole-system within the FBI will go after any.. or every .. Republican that gets in their way.
 
---
From the "office of Democrat Delusions" department - Online headline/story: "Trump takes credit for Obama's gains for vets * President Donald Trump and his Veterans Affairs secretary are claiming full credit for health care improvements that were underway before they took office." -- Good grief..First Choice was passed by Republican House and Senate, but no way PeLOUSY would ever have funded any of it with Hellary in office..
 
---
M/C L-E story: "After weeks of waiting, Uptown Columbus Inc. has revealed the meaning behind the “Rising Soon” watermarks that you may have spotted all over downtown sidewalks. * The group put an end to speculation on Saturday when it introduced a new name for the Chattahoochee River recreational area shared by Columbus and Phenix City. The branding merger creates the new RushSouth Whitewater Park." -- Good grief.. it's not
"rebranding".. it's sorta like when rustlers change the brand so their rustled cattle can't be traced...Now "Columbus" has lost it's connection with potential tourists. All along.. it has been Columbus, GA's venture.. it's our river, it was mainly our money.. Now.. "Columbus" is as second-fiddle as Phenix City.
 
---
Hey Columbus Council! When will Richard Bishop's name and info be put in the City salary database? For that matter, when will the database be up-dated with the new mayor's and new Councilors' salaries?
 
 

---
Item 12 the proposed new Columbus City budget under revenues is $1,859,946.00 ... You know, it's not a balanced budget when funds from the City's savings account (a.k.a. Fund Balance) are included in day-to-day funding.. BTW.. how low does this make our Savings Account? 

Monday, May 27, 2019

Today is Memorial Day.. Every freedom...every right we have was earned by our forefathers, and it's up to us to continuously pay this forward for our children and grandchildren. The future of their freedoms and rights depend on our willingness...our commitment...not to be silent when others...especially others within our government..try to restrict or take them away.
 
---
Online headline: "Chicago shootings: More than 34 shot – 5 fatally – during Memorial Day weekend" -- Hmmm...34 shot, 5 fatally...and the holiday won't be over until midnight tonight! Pray for the officers... and their families... of the CPD...
 
---
Ironic.. but morbidly.. Columbus Council can hire a second Assistant Coroner but cannot hire officers to fill about 100 police officer positions...
 
---
Irony..at it's best...President Trump could walk around Japan, being within missile range or Russia, China, and North Korea....with less Secret Service Security than he would need if he went to a Democratic Party Presidential Debate run by CNN or MSNBC.
 
---
Nutshell lesson: Let's talk about "bullies and "bullying"...MSM-13 and Democrats/RINOs have ganged up to shut down one man.. President Trump, as he moves forward Making America Great Again.. and he does what "bullies" understand...Trump punches back ... right on their noses! This is why Americans love him!
 
---
Online headline: "Brennan, Clapper lash out at Trump for declassifying 2016 election intel" -- Of course they hate it...it'll end any defense they had about whether they are the liars they are!
 
---
Online headline: "Trump, calling for legal appeal, slams ‘activist Obama appointed judge’ over border wall ruling" -- Once as again, no single judge should have the power to stay Presidential order!
 
Update! Now appears that "the judge" above gave $20,000.00 to the Obama campaign before he was appointed! The Queen of Roses had the right solution: "Off with his head!"
 
---
12..... the 12th local homicide happened Saturday.. it was a domestic situation where a husband stabbed his wife to death... you know, there are local politicos relieved it wasn't another shooting death.
 
Update (already).. BANG! it appears number 13 happened as well
 
---
Michael Moore stood at a dais in Cannes.. and accused President Trump of more lying... Hmm.. in reality what the audience in Cannes got was "MOORE lying"!
 
---
Last week, there was a L-E article on the "Top 20 salaries for state employees in Georgia: Who makes the most money?", and I mentioned that 8 of the top 14 worked in the GA Teacher's Retirement System. I've parse it a bit more: It seems like $4 million plus dollars are probably being wasted..seem to me that a teacher voted on volunteer panel could closely with a big financial group and get the results desired for a lot less than paying out over $4 Million in salaries plus trading costs on investments.
 
---
Hmmm..having observed personally on three recent occasions, hospitals need to revisit their dress codes...while I can..will ..tolerate "scrubs", I miss seeing white nurse uniforms w/ white professional shoes, but I think t-shirts have no place in a professional workplace. Too casual clothing creates a too casual work environment when patients are looking for...expecting ..professional treatment.
 
---
From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline/story: "Lone GOP rep blocks disaster aid bill in surprise move * A lone Republican congressman single-handedly stalled a $19 billion disaster aid bill that lawmakers had expected to pass before the Memorial Day weekend. * Texas Rep. Chip Roy took to the House floor late Friday morning to object when lawmakers tried to approve the legislation using a fast-track tactic, with many members of Congress already gone for the holiday. * “If I do not object, Congress will have passed a bill with $19 billion without being here to vote on it,” Roy said." -- Good grief.. he's gonna get vilified, but I agree with him.. we do not need legislation.. especially legislation that spends billions getting passed without voting! Congress should do its job "by the book".
 
---
Fox News' Charles Payne really put the Chinese treatment of our farmers in perspective on Friday..He reminded us that farm crop trade with Chiba was off 15% in the last months of the Obama/Biden legacy, and that it's China's decision to mug American farmers, and that the assistance Trump has authorized ($12B last year, and $16 B this year) are not "welfare" but protection to make sure China is held to task in negotiating a fair trade deal.

Think about this..since Trump has declassified the documents concerning the Steele Document's use in the issuance of the FISA warrants, and Atty Gen Barr has the discretionary decision to use or not, Barr can delay or not use them using the damage they would cause to the Obama Administration as his reason, and MSM-13 would be stammering for 6 months.

Now Bob Mueller says he wants to testify ...in private...you know, the Democrats have ruined that opportunity by their wrongfully biased interpretations of his report, and now the public should be able to see the faces of the Judiciary Committee Democrats as Mueller corrects them in front of TV cameras.

I just saw an ad this AM on TV for "American Steel". Whatta a tribute to President Trump...whatta condemnation for the former Obama/Biden administration and their "Tragic Wand".

Online headline: "Scott Pelley reveals complaining about 'hostile work environment' at CBS led to firing" -- Hmmm...I don't know who Scott Pelley is...and I bet that this is the reason CBS fired him..and I'll bet there are more CBS "journalists" on the chopping block for the same reasons!

Online headline: "Trump 'smiled' when North Korea called Biden 'low IQ,' suggests critical editorial was a 'signal'" -- And if anyone knows "low IQs", Kim Jong Oooops knows Dennis Rodman for comparison.

From the "Ignorant bias? What ignorance bias? Department - online headline:"West Point Graduates Most Diverse Class Ever, Ruins It With Mike Pence Speech" Good grief. If any West Point graduate felt this way, it'd probably should be a Court Martial offense..as it is, it's an offense of MSM-13 against all that's good in America with patriotic leaders as our military commanders.

From the "seriously, this isn't news " department - Online story: "Plans for a Ku Klux Klan rally in Dayton, Ohio set the city on edge and attracted national attention. But only nine people showed up for the rally Saturday, and their slogans were drowned out by 500 to 600 protesters who gathered to show their opposition to the hate-group’s message." - Good grief..the real two stories here are the facts that this was in Ohio, and KKK "interest" attracted only 9 people. And that wouldn't have been noticed if 500-600 protesters hadn't shown up. It's time for MSM-13 to stop stirring up hatred that's not an issue anymore other than as a Democrat get-out-the-vote-by-stirring-up-anachronistic-ignorance.

M/C L-E headline/story: "Stolen NSA tool wreaks havoc in American cities * For nearly three weeks, Baltimore has struggled with a cyberattack by digital extortionists that has frozen thousands of computers, shut down email and disrupted real estate sales, water bills, health alerts and many other services. * But here is what frustrated city employees and residents do not know: A key component of the malware that cybercriminals used in the attack was developed at taxpayer expense a short drive down the Baltimore-Washington Parkway at the National Security Agency, according to security experts briefed on the case. * Since 2017, when the NSA lost control of the tool, EternalBlue, it has been picked up by state hackers in North Korea, Russia and, more recently, China, to cut a path of destruction around the world, leaving billions of dollars in damage. But over the past year, the cyberweapon has boomeranged back and is now showing up in the NSA’s own backyard." -- Hmm.. I tell you what.. since the NSA developed this software, and didn't protect it from hacking, it should be responsible for cleaning up the mess.. surely, the NSA did not develop this without creating a "cure/antidote". Even Apple can get into a locked Apple iPhone whether hey help the government ..or not.. when a terrorist uses it for crimes. Hey! Shame on Apple for not helping in such a case!

Online headline: "Facebook defends decision to leave up fake Pelosi video, saying it has no policy that posts must be 'true'" - Hmm.. that's fair.. Face book has no proof that anything PeLOUSY says is true either.

Friday, May 24, 2019

Speaker PeLOUSY is saying that President Trump is assaulting the Constitution........which Constitution is she talking about...surely not OURS which she repeatedly ignores her oath to abide by and protect it.

President Trump is going after the Pharmaceutical industry for transparency in actual costs for research and production of their drugs. I have two experiences with non-generic stage drugs. Started a blood pressure med in 2005 when a 30 pills cost me $57.00..It's now available as a generic drug for $4.00, but the original prescription for the "branded" version is still over $330.00 for a 30 pills. Recently, I was prescribed a newer blood thinner..supposedly a new generation of Warfarin.. Warfarin is now in generic availability at $4.00 for 30 days worth, while the new variation costs over $430.00 for a month's supply. What I do not know is whether the newer version is worth more than the cost of a monthly lease of a new luxury SUV....and I cannot get an objective opinion from a pharmacist.. who stands to profit more from selling the "high priced spread".
 
---
Need to make a correction of a statement I made yesterday... only a simple majority of the House judiciary Committee followed by a simple majority of the full House are needed to send an impeachment. Charge to the Senate for trial...not a 2/3rds vote. In the Senate, a 2/3rds majority is required for a conviction of House charges.

Online headline/story: "Dr. Drew Pinsky warns Los Angeles could be at risk of a deadly epidemic this summer * "We have tens and tens of thousands of people living in tents. Horrible conditions. Sanitation. Rats have taken over the city. We're the only city in the country, Los Angeles, without a rodent control program. We have multiple rodent-borne, flea-borne illnesses, plague, typhus. We're gonna have louse-borne illness. If measles breaks into that population, we have tuberculosis exploding. Literally, our politicians are like Nero. It's worse than Nero," Pinsky said." -- You know, California has 53 House members and 2 Senators... 48 of those 55 are Democrats.. and no Republican voter in LA or San Francisco has a voice about the filth and fears they and their families are being subjected.
 
---
From the "confirmation" department - Online headline/story: "New York Times op-ed calls out 'unlivable' conditions in Democratic-led cities * A New York Times opinion piece is calling attention to the "unlivable" conditions in many American cities, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's hometown of San Francisco.
 
In the op-ed, titled "America’s Cities Are Unlivable. Blame Wealthy Liberals," author Farhad Manjoo wrote of the "developing-world nightmare" unfolding in his home state." -- You know, when the NYTimes runs a commentary like this, it's ONLY because they see it creeping into their own city...
 
---
Identity politics... this seems to be the message.. and direction the Democrats are preaching for the future.. yet describing "identity politics" AS the future just condemns the future of politics.

Online headline/story: "The FDA Tells the Food Industry to Change How It Uses 'Expiration' Dates * the agency issued a letter to the food industry at large, throwing its support behind a growing trend to almost universally adopt a “Best if Used By” date label on products. At the same time, it’s also reminding the public that most foods can still be perfectly safe to eat if they’re past the marked date, even if they’re not necessarily quite as tasty anymore. The moves are part of a larger effort by the FDA to drastically cut down on America’s food waste problem. * The FDA and USDA (the agencies responsible for regulating our food) actually don’t mandate the use of a date label on most foods; companies do it at their own behest." -- Proof! manufacturers LOVE the expiration dates.. you throw away still good stuff and go out and buy some more.

From the "Dems should have been concerned about getting their wishes" department - Online headline: "Trump gives AG Barr authority to declassify documents related to 2016 campaign surveillance" -- Heh heh heh.. Br'er President has been thrown into that brier patch.. and is now laffing all the way to the White House...and Congressman, A Dam SCHI**, D-CA, is back pedaling as fast as he can.
 
---
From the "justice for all... especially America" department - Online headline/story: "Judge orders that Jussie Smollett’s case file be unsealed * Once the charges were dropped, the court approved Smollet’s lawyer’s request to seal the case, but it was unsealed Thursday at the request of The New York Times and news other organizations that argued for the need for transparency" -- Wow! Maybe the president of the NYTimes went back and ready the original NYT slogan and saw the "all the news that's fit to print" is the direction the NYTimes needs to return to offering.
 
---
Hmmm... maybe now MSM-13 may have caught President Trump in a lie.. Trump said PeLOUSY finally "has lost it".. She lost it long before Trump even thought about running for president!
 
---
I did not watch the ABC do-overs of "All in the Family or "The Jeffersons". Mainly because I could not imagine 6'7" Jamie Foxx playing banty-hen sized George Jefferson.. I might have though, if I knew it was on, but I do not watch ABC since they took off the "Last Man Standing" so I didn't see any ads for it.

Revisiting a couple of unanswered requests from our Council: 1 - Response was received that the railroad cross ties and spikes piled up along the track by Veterans Parkway above Double Churches Road were going to be acted on.. it has not happened.. secondly, what was the total of the fees Columbus received from Whitewater last year?

Looks like the new hockey enterprise in Columbus has some egg on it's face.. Due diligence would have shown the name "River Dragons" had already been used here by a NBDL basketball team.. thanks for Richard Hyatt's "memory".

VA Governor Northam's yearbook "blackface" picture is back in the news... the MSM-13 decision is inconclusive.. despite two well known, well recognized  facts.. there's a picture, and we know an undoctored "picture is worth a 1,000 words"...then there's Governor Northam, a Democrat, and we know all Democrats are pathological liars.  Case closed!
 
---
From the "defined from within" department - Online headline/story: "AOC says only a 'sea sponge' would believe her '12 years' doomsday remark, but most Dems bought it * Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s claim that the world will “end in 12 years” unless climate change is tackled was accepted as a fact by two-thirds of Democrats, even though she said herself that only those with the “social intelligence of a sea sponge” could actually believe it." -- It's true! It's true that kids.. and child-like Democrats "say.. and believe.. the darndest things". And 100% of the MSM-13 "journalists" swallowed the bait even deeper!

From the "it's only a Sanctuary City for the criminals" department - Online headline/story: "74-year-old woman kidnapped, raped in San Francisco home * A 74-year-old woman was kidnapped in San Francisco street earlier this month, held captive for five hours, and raped repeatedly before being left semi-conscious on a sidewalk, police said. * Manuel Amador, 47, was arrested last Friday * Authorities said the woman was walking through the Crocker-Amazon district around 8 a.m., when a man pulled her into a house. There was reportedly a pit bull inside that bit her. The man then locked the woman in a room and repeatedly raped her, authorities said." -- "Sanctuarianism" has become a way of life for criminals in San Francisco.. the @-hole actually CONFESSED to his actions.. pretty much knowing that nothing will happen to him.. No word... either way.. as to the @-hole's citizenship status.. which pretty much means he's an illegal gaming the California system.

From the "so much for equality for women" department - Online story: "White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, had a terse exchange after a meeting between President Trump and Democratic lawmakers was cut short on Wednesday. * "I'm responding to the president, not staff," Pelosi shot back. * Conway slammed Pelosi's dismissal of her. * "Really great. That’s really pro-woman of you,” the White House counselor is said to have responded." -- Sorta explains why 45% of donors to Trump's 2020 campaign are women, and he has the most women contributors than any other candidate..
 
---
A good point was brought up earlier today by a fellow BCer... GA's Governor Kemp is the first non-Democrat-conversion Republican to be Governor in modern history.. maybe that's why he's so committed to keeping his promises... like Trump!
 
---
I tell you what... at one time, I felt good about the Kennedy name.. President Kennedy believed in America... his brother Bobby. was assassinated by what is believed the first middle-Eastern lone wolf act of terrorism.. then there's Teddy.. who destroyed all the vestiges of honor in the Kennedy .. and Democratic Party families.. Now, another Kennedy has emerged... John Kennedy, a Republican Senator from Louisiana who's voice of reason.. and doing what's right is resonating loudly across our nation.. I'm back to being a John Kennedy Fan.

Looks like Dr Ben Carson still can handle intricate brain surgery.. after Ilhan Ohmygod's idiotic outburst about Carson "falling asleep" at the hearing.. Dr Carson's skill was able to locate... and isolate the small part of Ohmygod's cranial much that qualifies as brain matter, and extricate one of her problems.. Dr Carson responded: "Since you brought it up... I know what it's like to actually be sleepy, especially after 18-hour surgeries and operating on babies in the womb. I hope @IlhanMN knows I care about all people, even those she doesn't recognize as having a right to life."

Congressman Doug Collins, R,  GA-9, has really come into his own recently.. would love to see more GA Republican Congressperson would step up and strongly support President Trump and us Georgians.

---
Did anyone see the Tuesday results of the special Congressional election in Pennsylvania on Tuesday? Republican Fred Keller defeated his Democrat opponent by by garnering over 67% of the vote.. That was even higher than the percentage President Trump got in that district in 2016. Bring on 2020!

From the Demo-Marx-ocrat Playbook" department - Online headline/story: "Venezuela is a poster child for gun control gone wrong * The country's collapse under President Nicolas Maduro is now considered to be the worst in decades. Opposition leader Juan Guaidó’s deputy remains in prison following his detainment just weeks ago. Millions of refugees, meanwhile, have fled the country for nearby Colombia, where life is far from perfect. Peace talks in Norway are ongoing, but unlikely to accomplish their goal. * Simply put: gun control. * In 2012, the Venezuelan National Assembly -- under Hugo Chavez’s dictatorship -- enacted the “Control of Arms, Munitions and Disarmament Law” in an attempt to “disarm all citizens.” The law explicitly banned the exchange of firearms and ammunition to all with the exception of government entities. * After the ban, gun store owners were restricted to selling fishing supplies. Any type of weaponry (even a slingshot) was prohibited, while airsoft guns and BB ammunition were reserved for military officers and police. * This is no coincidence: An excessively empowered government means a depressingly disempowered citizenry -- in South America and beyond." -- And taking the guns away wasn't enough.. the Socialist government confiscated slingshots and toy guns as well! Socialist governments do not want children remembering what it was like to be empowered to feel they had a defense capability for themselves and their families.

From the "it is happening here" department - Online headline/story: "Richard Carranza is stomping on Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream * To the new racialists, the color of your skin is more important than the content of your character. Tragically, one of them runs New York City’s public schools. * But make no mistake: Chancellor Richard Carranza is no mere educator. Teaching kids to read and write and how to think critically is beneath him, which explains why his record in San Francisco, Houston and now New York shows no success at fixing failure factories." -- Good grief... are Columbus taxpayers doomed to continuously accept external supervisory input It's time... time for the MCSB to supervise rather than rubber stamp outside edu-taters. Programs should be developed within and continuous leadership be developed.
 
---
Whatta difference attitude makes! We just read of a public school eliminating valedictorian and salutatorian honors, yet when I went to the awards program at my granddaughter's last day of the year at her Christian school, the children were excited..elated..to accept their awards for scholarship and leadership. Just like in sports, competition.. along with good coaching.. brings out the best in our children.
 
---
From the "how cryptic" department - Online story: "A California Democratic lawmaker on Monday formally introduced a bill to offer tax breaks to film and television productions that relocate from states with “strict abortion bans.” -- Wow! How typically California-ish.. Invite corporations who participated in states that now ban most abortions, into a state that IS an abortion.
 
 
---
From the "there had to be a reason" department - Online headline: "Scientists In The Philippines Have Discovered A New Species Of Human" -- You know.. I've pretty much been an advocate that Democrats are not the same as logical, responsible American taxpaying citizens.. and now we may have proof of this matter...
 
---
You know.. PeLOUSY, Ocasio-Cortez, Ohmygod, Tlaib, and Nadler are all flapping their jaws at impeaching President Trump.. to do so, they would need 290 Congresspersons casting votes "FOR" impeachment so even a complete Democrat bloc would need 55 Republican Congressperson's to vote with them.
 
---
From the "stupidest Democrat competition" department - Online head;line/story: "Mississippi mayor offers $10,000 for criminals to leave city * A Mississippi mayor announced on Monday that he's ready to spend thousands of dollars of his own money to get rid of criminals in his city, * Clarksdale mayor Chuck Espy said at a press conference that he is willing to relocate those who commit crimes with an initial offer of $10,000. The purpose, he said, is to encourage lawbreakers to start a new life elsewhere." -- How do Democrats get elected is one thing, but getting re-elected by voters means a chronic disease exists.. How much will the criminals want in the future NOT to come back, and what happens when the next mayor of Clarksdale does not have the personal $10,000.00 per criminal bank account to draw from?
 
---
So, the Facade Board has approved the new plans for a Hilton Specialty Hotel on Broadway.. DOH! Why does the Facade Board still exist? I mean with CSU impervious to Board influence, and graffiti art being encouraged on buildings sides, and few, if any sign violations being corrected.. the Facade Board no longer is a valid protector of our heritage.

And now there are 24 wannabes in the Socialist-Democrat since NYC Mayor de Bl@sio joined the fray, all Democrats must face reality.. and the reality is that if de Bl@sio feels he has a chance, the first 23 who entered must really be losers!

Wow! Three state champs were won by Columbus teams/individuals.. on Tuesday... and now on Thursday, the M/C L-E gets it in the paper..

From the "is this a sequel?" department - Online headline: "Jeff Daniels says if Trump is re-elected it will be the 'end of democracy" -- Good grief.. I use to wonder whether his character was "Dumb or Dumber" but it's now revealed, and he's relegated his rank to "Dumbest".
 
---
You know.. Jeff Daniels is his own worst enemy.. he's trashing Trump in hopes that Hollywood might give him a movie job.. but doesn't realize it's Trump supporters who would be the ones buying (or in this case.. NOT buying)  tickets.

Outrage! If you don't feel outraged, you are liberal... even for a liberal! terrorist known as the "American Taliban".. one John Walker Lindh, who left America in 2001 and joined the Taliban in Afghanistan. He was captured and has been serving a 20 year sentence but is about to get a 2.5 year early release. Don't tell me he's getting out early based on "good time", nor has he renounced his allegiance to the Taliban. Question 1 is "Why did any terrorist get anything but a life-without-parole sentence (other than an immediate death sentence)? To boot, he has to agree not to access the Internet without permission.. yeah.. RIGHT! Even sadder is that others are scheduled for release as well, and even if they are sent home, they can still come back via our Mexican border because the WALL isn't finished!
 
---
From the "confirmation of opinion" department - Online headline: "Trump's agenda hampered by troubling number of lower court injunctions, Barr says" -- Once again I repeat my oft heard stand that single judges should not be able to issue an injunction over anything initiated by a President! The first step should be through the District Court of Appeals appointing a 3-or-5 judge panel to review the merits for and against the President's orders, and if the panel agrees with a petitioner, the matter be directed straight to the US Supreme Court. As it is, plaintiff lawyers can "shop" for judges who share their politics for the first stage.

Online headline: "Democrats push law that would allow Donald Trump to be prosecuted" *
Talk about childish insanity and waste of time, the Senate won't even vote on it, much less send it to President Trump to sign it, and who wouldn't sign it if it was sent to him.
 
---
There's one big difference between Trump and the Democrats. With Trump, I feel my back is covered; with Democrats, I feel a knife in my back.

Talk about nanny-nanny-poo-poo, CNN Brian Todd claims that President Trump revealed secret intelligence while talking with Fox News.. Hey, Todd.. yoo hoo.. the President has authority to establish or remove any clearance of any information he/she deems appropriate for doing his/her job.

You know, the only thing Lord Farquaad Nadler in accomplishing with his threats of "contempt" is that he's elevating the growing contempt America is feeling for him and the Socialist-Democrat Party.

What is it with Fox News...I'm talking about all the paid errand boys/girls bringing both Democrat and Republican 'sound bites' to escape the need of proper discussion of thoughts and ideas geared to solutions, not agenda.
 
---
Governor Kemp has been a pleasant surprise to me.. he was not my primary choice, but once he won the primary, he's been my only choice because I could not see a good future for GA if Abrams won, but he has earned my respect since in office.. signing the "heartbeat" bill was spot-on, and now he's going after removing "Common CRAP... (a.k.a. "Common Core")from out education system!
---
Biden bin Lying is trying to dig his way out of the hole Trump bumped him into when Trump said Biden bin Lying abandoned Pennsylvania.. Biden's "oh yeah!" response was that his father lost his job so he moved to find one.. Well, that certainly didn't inspire Biden bin Lying to move back and help drive new jobs for Pennsylvanians.. And now Trump has done that!

Can you believe "human composting" in Washington State? I believe I've eaten my last apple from there.. In fact, I will look askance at all future claims of foods touted as "organically grown".... they may be "ORGANically grown".

From the "hypocrisy personified" department - Online headline/story: "Sneaker makers and retailers tell Trump a shoe tariff would be catastrophic * Adding sports shoes to the recently announced tariffs against goods imported from China would cost footwear consumers $7 billion annually, 173 manufacturers and retailers told President Trump Monday. * “The proposed additional tariff of 25% on footwear would be catastrophic for our consumers, our companies, and the American economy as a whole,” wrote the likes of Nike, Adidas, Foot Locker, Steve Madden, Crocs and a host of other companies" -- Good grief! The only concern of the shoe people is whether they make more of less profit.. if they were concerned about the American consumers, their prices would be lower to begin with.
 
---
We like President Trump because what he says today is what he campaigned on when he ran for the Republican nomination. Contrast that with videos of Biden bin Lying when he ram for the Democratic Party presidential nomination in 2007. In fact, In fact, if you read uncredited comments about immigration and sanctuary cities made by Biden bin Lying, you'd swear they were the words of Trump.

With the national economy soaring, are Council and the Chamber of Commerce working on getting Charbroil to bring back their grill manufacturing business BACK from China to our hometown?

Online headline/story: "Trey Gowdy: Secret FBI transcripts from Russia probe could be 'game-changer' * Unreleased transcripts from secretly recorded conversations between FBI informants and ex-Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos could be game-changing if the public were ever allowed to see them, according to former Rep.

After being in violation of Georgia open meetings laws for an undetermined amount of time, the Columbus Consolidated Government board in charge of conducting elections and tallying citizens’ votes made changes to comply with the law, after an investigation by the Ledger-Enquirer." -- "investigation by the Ledger-Enquirer"? What.. in lieu of investigating why there's no follow up on forensic audits for departments other that the Clerk of Council? How about the investigation about where Zeph Baker's living and where his campaign disclosures are?

M/C L-E headline: "Reports: Iran quadruples production of enriched uranium" -- Hmmm looks like the Obama agreement is toast, and the billions in cash sent back have struck a deal with the uranium Hellary gave to the Russians.

You know, when the Founding Father's created the First Amendment rights of free speech, it was meant to insure and protect the right to the truth. They pretty much assumed the 9th Commandment already covered lying and fake news.

What is it with Democrats and higher taxes? Lower taxes create more jobs, a soaring economy...and..and...and..are you ready for this...MORE ACTUAL TAX REVENUES! We are experiencing this under Trump as we did under Reagan.

From the "preview" department - Online headline/story: "Vast gasoline lines form in oil-rich Venezuela * Some drivers said they'd had to wait almost 24 hours to fuel up, and people have been grabbing catnaps on the hoods of cars or in truck beds." -- Welcome to the Utopia of the Socialist-Democratic Party of the US..

Is there anything that fills a parent with more pride than watching their children receiving recognition for achievement. Had one of those moments Saturday as my youngest "walked" to receive her college diploma. It was almost a perfect ceremony.. there were no vocal protests as our National Flag was presented and a beautiful rendition of our National Anthem was rendered, and the CSU President lathered on the importance of CSU's well endowed "Servant Leadership" program so wonderfully exampled and funded by the late Bill Turner, and now supplemented by Coca Cola.. .. but I also noticed the ceremony was absent of a prayer to the magnificence of our God above... INTENTIONALLY!.. don't worry though, many of us parents prayed for forgiveness of this obvious omission.

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline/story: "Dozens protest Pence at Taylor University commencement * Dozens protest Pence at Taylor University commencement * Most of Taylor's graduating class did not leave. Pence received a standing ovation." -- Hmm.. Some how, MSM-13 tries to put importance of the actions of a few as their inspiration to justify their own biases.. Taylor University is a small 2,100 enrolled college founded in 1846... Christian in mission. A few students and faculty walked out but the vast majority enjoyed their moment.. the culmination of 4 years of study... in honorable resolve. The real losers were the students who "walked out".. their families did not get to see them "walk". The students did not get to experience being recognized for their hard work.. for completing a task.. . Now, what I want to know is what is Taylor University going to do with the damn faculty who participated in inane stupidity,, I know if I was the President of Taylor University, I would not want parents of future students to know I was going to be teaching their children with idiots on my staff!

In a tweet meant to belittle Trump, James Comey just revealed the game plan of the Dems, MSM-13, and his own cabal of rogue FBI personnel: "“The president claiming the FBI’s investigation was ‘TREASON’ reminds me that a Russian once said, ‘A lie told often enough becomes the truth.’ That shouldn’t happen in America. Who will stand up?” Comey tweeted. " Repeating lies is the Central plank in the both the Communist and Democratic Party platforms.

Here's another list.. and you know how I love lists! This one is about the "Hottest States" during the summer months.. It's very enlightening.. well "startling" may be a better adjective: Only 3 states (Texas, Louisiana, nd Florida) have an average summer temperature in the 80s.. and Texas.. at 81.3 degrees.. is the highest. This must send a chill up Algore back.
 
Of special note.. since I am a Georgian.. and live in Columbus is that while GA is the 7th "hottest" state during the summers .. with an average temp of 78.7 degrees, Columbus comes in with an 81.4 degree average temp.. which, incidentally is HIGHER that Texas' average.
 
7. Georgia
> Average temperature in the summer: 78.7° F
> Hottest area in the summer: Columbus with avg. summer temp. of 81.4° F

Online headline: "Critics blast 'P is for Palestine' children's book as anti-Semitic; library postpones author event" -- Hmmmm...our library would probably carry it if it was a Children's Reading Event for local drag queens... of course there might be a "beheading" in the library if Muslims show up .
 
---
From the "it's a semantics thing" department - Online headline: "Buttigieg backs far-left idea of erasing Thomas Jefferson's name: 'It's the right thing to do'" -- "the RIGHT thing to do"? Not HARDLY! It's definitely a LEFT thing... Erasing Thomas Jefferson's name.. Butti-Gig must really be jealous that Jefferson was such a force in developing our country, while Butti-Gig will be nothing but a footnote in the loser division of the Socialist-Democratic Party.
 
---
From the "WAKE UP CALL!" department - M/C L-E headline: "Pope urges press to use its power to seek truth" -- Good grief.. MSM-13 should be shaking in its boots when a Pope.. even POOP Francis... calls them OUT!
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Democrats split on taxing the wealthy to pay for infrastructure" -- Hmmm... must be that the wealthy NY/CA/IL libs are short on funds after having all their taxes raised by Democrat politicians...

Poor Burger King.. using vulgarity to describe their meal boxes...Hey, Burger King.. chew on this.. I'm not buying it.. First I "DGAF" - Don't Give a Fiver - when I'm P*ssed". Second.. don't need but the First reason
 
---
From the "this is outrageous!" department - Online headline/story: "School lunch lady fired for feeding student unable to pay * Kimball was fired by the school's food vendor, Cafe Services, after she allowed a boy to have his $8 lunch when it was discovered he had no money in his account" -- Sure, it was wrong for a school to fire someone for having a heart, but it's outrageous that a school meal would cost $8:00!"Box Lunches" from Popeye's, Taco Bell, KFC, et al could be picked up daily and brought in... heck .. even the usual wasted food kids won't eat would be eliminated as well!
 
---
From the "showboating instead of helping" department - Online line story: "Democrats in the House approved sweeping anti-discrimination legislation Friday that would extend civil rights protections to LGBT people by prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity." -- Good grief.. there's not one new right given that isn't already covered by the Constitution or US Supreme Court decision, so this is a nothing but a "look at me moment" when it could be "we are interested in Making America Great Again" moment!. This will not even be voted on in the Senate nor given to Trump to sign. Now, Dems,, where's the help for insuring safety for all Americans by getting that wall built?
 
---
I'm curious.. remember when Anita Hill accused Supreme Court Justice nominee Clarence Thomas of giving her a can of Coca Cola... with a pubic hair on the lid? Surely she l]kept that.. so make her produce it for DNA tests, and if it's not from him, send her to jail for lying under oath!

I just realized that the Preakness was running this weekend,, and nothing interested me in watching...Races should be determined on the track... not in a judge's office..

From the "she's b-a-a-c-c-c-k-k-k-k" department - Online headline/story: "Ocasio-Cortez makes Bible joke to peddle interest rate cap bill * The joke refers to the Loan Shark Prevention Act, which aims to cap credit card interest rates at 15 percent. The freshman lawmaker said “usury,” or high interest rates, are explicitly condemned in the Bible, which means the conservative right has a reason to support it." -- Maybe saying "she's back" is a misnomer.. it's more like "she won't go away!" You know...credit card rates are not the boogieman..how about capping really "usurious" payday and title loans rates..

Here we go..after 7 months of piddling, the roundabout is kicking into 2nd gear.. The sad thing is that as bad as I thought it going to be, now that I see the preliminary excavations and elevations, I see it as worse that I ever imagined.

First clarification, roundabouts in residential, low traffic, non-commercial areas can be wonderful...even community assets, but when you combine them on dump, semi, and logging truck routes, they bring a real danger to all that use them

Democrat spinmeisters are carping that after all of Trump's 'expensive ' campaign of tweeting to counter MSM-13 and DNC fake news, Trump's approval ratings haven't grown... excuse me but the success if Trump's actions should be measured by how his approval ratings are not in the 30% range the Dems felt sure they would be after their all out assault on him and America!

What is it with the Democrats showing indignation at Atty General Bill Barr's probe into improprieties going on within the FBI upper echelon. It wasn't that long ago that Bill Barr exposed several FBI officials who persecuted 4 men to cover up FBI involvement with mob activities.
 
---
You know, the judge that was "shopped for" to wrongly sign the FISA warrants should be livid if he wasn't in on the plot to discredit Trump...otherwise. he/she ought to be loudly protesting what Comey did.
 
---
I'm tired of Democrat politicians claiming they speak for the "American people"..that's a lie! They speak for liberals..primarily in their Districts and in support of other liberal politicians.. .. and I didn't vote for a single one of them! Now, Trump and Pence are the ONLY elected officials in America who can claim to speak for all Americans!
 
 
---
So Stacey Abrams feels the best way to handle GA's new "heartbeat bill" is to "fund the defeat of these politicians and their horrible behavior by using the resources available through the entertainment industry." - Hmmm isn't that exactly who funded Abrams LOSS to Kemp.. and Beto O'Jerk's loss to Cruz in Texas? Oh, and let's not forget Ossoff's defeat in the GA District 6 Special Election either!

Wow! The dream of a 4 year Mercer University Medical School here is Columbus is fantastic.. Wanna bet ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son will show up for a ground breaking photo-op?
 
Hmm.. so Mercer's new Medical School here in Columbus, GA will only admit Georgians into the program.. Hmmm hey, MCSD are you listening? Hey City of Columbus.. this should work for hiring in City Government, too!

Robert E. Smith.. billionaire businessman made a magnanimous gesture this weekend.. he's offered to pay off all the student loans of the graduating Class of 2018-9 at Morehouse College in Atlanta.. Wanna bet whether the Class of 2020 asks "what about us?"..

Friday, May 17, 2019

Just like with building "the WALL", there's really only two questions to ask about Trump's proposals to manage legal and illegal immigration...1- Why didn't Obama propose and enact them during his 1st two years when he had super-majorities in both chambers?, and 2 - Why haven't the Democrats been on board WITH Trump to get these enacted during his 1st two years in office?.

Now.. let's pray the US Supreme Court upholds the need.. no, more like.. NECESSITY..for an under oath question about US citizenship on the 2020 and subsequent Censuses.

Was reading about the next "Batman" movie.. the director has been given "plenty of time to develop the script" following the disappointment of "Batman vs Superman" and "Justice League"..I didn't see either one of those because the ones before them just weren't "any fun" like the early forerunners.. and the Heath Ledger/Joker editions were just too "dark". I want my Comic Book movies to be filled with as much fun as there is is "good guys win" action... it's the success formula of "the Avengers".
 
---
From the "only in California" department - Online headline/story: "Man arrested for beating elderly woman to death with electric scooter * Authorities said R***** approached Hernandez in Long Beach Monday afternoon, knocked her to the ground and began stomping on her head. When a bystander tried to intervene, R***** then reportedly took an electric Bird scooter and bludgeoned her to death." -- Just shows what happens when you become a "sanctuary" state... criminals become "sanctimonious".
 
---
Online headline: "Bruce Willis gets booed by Phillies fans after throwing out the first pitch" -- Well, Phillie fans ARE KNOWN as "the BOO-Birds" but when you start in front of the mounds..... and STILL bounce it to the plate.. whatta ya expect! Of course.. this may have been Bruce Willis' "plan" to prepare himself for coming to Columbus, GA next month to start a movie here.. Columbus is as... if not more... liberal politically as Philadelphia, and several film makers are boycotting GA because Kemp signed the "heartbeat bill".
 
---
There's a list (and you know how I love lists!) out about the "fastest shrinking cities" in America.. it was based on 2010-2018 figures which is the only reason why Columbus. GA is not on the list.. in 2010, Columbus had 191,110 but grew to 203,274 by 2013 because of BRAC expectations.. but the 2018 number was down to 189,985. So the "list" would only count the 1,125 "drop" from 2010 to 2018. ... but if you start from the peak in 2013 ... 203,274... and calculated the latest number.. 189,985... you would have a 6.54% drop.. and that. my friends.. would be good enough to make Columbus rank Number 4 on the Fastest Shrinking Cities in America"! Hey ex-mayor Tom-LYING-son .. put this data on your campaign website!

Online "head-LIE": "Walmart CFO: 'Increased tariffs will lead to increased prices for our customers'" * (Of course, when you READ the story, you find what he actually said was,) ""When you start talking about something like tariffs, everything is specific to items and categories,” Biggs said adding that it’s "challenging to make broad statements." * He noted that it “would certainly lead to increased prices,” but remaining the “low price leader” is in Walmart’s “DNA.” -- Fake News!
 
---
Online headline: "California braces for feet of snow from storms; 'significant severe weather event' to impact Plains" -- Hmmm.. of course the California "climate change brigade" will insist the snow id 1.2 degrees warmer due to cows' farts.
 
---
23...that's the latest number now in the race for the Democrat nomination to run against Trump in 2020..yep...the mayor of New York City...de Bl@sio! You know, he has a pretty good chance, too. Not only do current New Yorkers want him 'gone', but those NYCers that have fled...or are planning to flee... to neighboring states because of soaring NYC taxes may be enough to give de Bl@sio wins in the contiguous states so they can move back to NYC.
 
---
From the "one big slap-happy family" department - Online headline/story: "Booker deputy campaign manager donates to Gillibrand campaign to 'ensure' debate spot * Jenna Lowenstein took to Twitter Wednesday to announce that she had donated to the campaign of Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., to “ensure” that she would qualify for the debates hosted by the Democratic National Committee. * “I just donated to ensure @SenGillibrand’s important perspective is on the debate stage. Join me!” Lowenstein wrote." -- Aside from $2,800.00 being the maximum donation she could have made, questions need to be asked.. Fist, did she donate from Booker's "war chest" or from her own savings? The second question would be "Why?... Did she feel Gillibrand couldn't raise any more herself?, and third, "Is there an ulterior motive... maybe Booker wants Gillibrand on stage so he's not the stupidest sounding Democrat there...

Online headline: "Muslim woman says Ga. Corrections Department won’t let her wear hijab" -- Hmmm... does she mean one of those long fabric scarf-like clothing item that she could harm/kill herself with if having in her cell? Hey,, it's no different than than taking away another prisoner's shoe laces, belt, or necktie for the same reasons..
 
---
Here it comes.. after 6 months of digging holes and filling them back up again, the Bradley Park/River Road Roundabout project will close down through traffic on Bradley Park beginning Tuesday week (May 28th). Now... what we aren't being told is WHEN will it reopen? We are given an approximate "12 weeks" estimate, (and even though the project is being handled by Southeastern Site Development) but seeing that the GA DOT has no finite definition of "12 Weeks" (as demonstrated so VIVIDLY on Veterans/ Moon, and Whittlesey Road projects), the Bradley Park School's parents and through traffic are going to be "miffed"... On another note.. thanks to Councilor Charmaine Crabb for getting the word out so fast.

Just a note: Haven't spoken on the GA Insurance Commissioner Jim Beck's situation as I haven't gotten enough information to parse.. but it's also because I try not to "rush to judgment" as so many do...

From the "once again, proof that marijuana is NOT a victim-less crime" department - M/C L-E headline: "Suitcase full of marijuana taken from Jeep before fatal shooting, detective says" -- Hmmm... and I wonder when the Democratic Party army of candidates will decide to add "free marijuana" to their list of bribes to get votes?

Repeat comment from yesterday: "Alabama has gone too far regarding abortions.. First, it shouldn't even be a legal matter.. it's a morals issue between women.. couples.. and God... and their relationship. I do believe women should be protected from bad doctors or clinics by making sure proper medical facilities capable of perform abortions are available without punishment for health providers, and I do believe that "partial birth Abortions" are infanticide of a prosecutorial nature, but never let us return to the "back alley" conditions of the 20th Century.

M/C L-E headline: "SAT ‘adversity score’ to rate students’ hardships" -- Good grief! Hasn't the US Supreme Court already stricken down "Affirmative Action"? You know, the latest latest college entrance scams have brought question about the validity of the SAT as a measuring stick, this may make the S+Ts irrelevant..
 
---
M/C L-E guest commentary headline: "Men are people, too, and have their own issues * BY ANDREW L. YARROW * The Baltimore Sun " -- Hmmm... of course neither this .. nor any other MSM-13 "journalist" ..will go so far as to include "old Conservative white men" in this assessment...

The fireworks in Columbus, GA have begun! Earlier this year, Marshal Countryman announced he would be running for Sheriff in 2020. Yesterday, Sheriff Tompkins announced she wanted to abolish the Marshal's Office altogether. I'm gonna suggest that Sheriff Tompkins run as an Independent in 2020 sh=o she will be on the ballot in November of 2020.

Tidbit I ran across: "Most people don’t think about how the internet works. But chances are the state of Virginia has something to do with it. Ashburn, Virginia has over 5 million square feet of data space, meaning 70% of the world’s internet traffic travels through this state."-- Sorta blows Algore's claim to have invented the Internet out of the water...also makes VA a good place to find Hellary's e-mails, and more pictures of VA Governor Northram's minstrel pictures.

Online headline/story: "Gavin Newsom pardons 7 felons, including 2 facing deportation * California Gov. Gavin Newsom, in an apparent rebuke of President Trump, used his executive authority to pardon two immigrants who went to prison after facing convictions -- including for soliciting to commit murder and grand theft. * Newsom, a Democrat serving his first term, signed each of the pardons, noting that the individuals merited pardon after serving time and "good conduct in the community." -- Good grief! Democrats will do anything to get Democrat voters registered to vote!

From the "It's a future 'I told you so' moment" department - M/C L-E headline: "Kadie the Cow's permanent home will remain on Manchester Expressway, City Council confirmed" -- You know, this icon has been standing longer than the Government Center, and you know what happens to City maintained facilities.. even now, we have two pools remaining closed for the second year.

Today, the Congressional Democrats are going to read the Mueller Report in Congress...it will take about 12 hours... 12 hours that could be spent solving issues and solutions.. One thing it will do that he Democrats may regret is show which of the Democrats can actually read..and that will show that they could have known how bad the ObamaCRAP Bill really was before they signed it!

Was watching TV with my h-granddaughter yesterday afternoon.. she wanted to watch "Fuller House".. Lori Loughlin had a cryptic line in the script that probably will haunt her the rest of her life..

Has Romney become a victim of dementia? He is not the man I thought he was when I donated to in 2008. In self defense, I did not know he;s strapped if dog in a crate on his car roof until after I sent his campaign a check.. BTW, he did not return it when I asked for it back...

Whatta farce! Harvard...it envisions itself as the epitome of higher learning in this country but has recently fired a dean for independent thinking, and holds specialty graduations for black and undocumented students. Whatta scam...whatta sham!

You know, taking...or just aiming at being a middle-of-the-road politician..
which, apparently is the end goal of Democrats trying to win an election, means, at best, mediocrity..or average.. which we all know is being either " the best of the worst or the worst of the best."
 
---
Remember when Obama jokingly asked if Trump had a 'magic wand' to get the economy flowing like Trump was promising during his campaign. Well, it looks like President Trump didn't NEED no " magic wand"..just good business sense. Not only does it appear good business sense was not in Obama's forte`, Obama was wielding a 'Tragic Wand"..

From the "What's worse than a liberal Democrat Maine lobster business person...a liberal Maine Senator without business experience!" department - Online headline/story: "China's new tariffs are affecting lobster industry in Maine, Sen. Angus King says * King told Bloomberg Monday the tariffs are being paid for by American consumers." -- You know, to begin with, China imports 80,000 of the 250,000 Maine harvested lobsters, and China's desire for the best lobsters in the world will not subside because the elite of China WANTS Maine lobsters.. and THEY, not American consumers, will pay the tariffs!

Seth Moulton, D-MA, says he's the only candidate challenging Trump on issues.....huh? What I want to see in a Democrat candidate is one that supports Trump's efforts to Make America Great Again and maybe offering some improvements to them.

From the "turn about.. What's her point?" department - Online headline: "Ilhan Omar says attacks on her and Rashida Tlaib are 'designed to silence' Muslim voices" -- Hmmm... and I do believe the attack on the Towers on 9-11-01 were meant to silence of 3,000 American voices of many religions..

M/C L-E headline: "City Manager recommended Center director’s removal after investigation" -- Good grief.. if the City is reporting an occurrence so the L-E can pass it along to the citizens on Columbus, how about giving us facts so rumors aren't all that this stirs up.

From the "say i ain't so, Joe!" department - M/C L-E headline/story: "NCAA eyes allowing athletes to profit * The NCAA is looking at how its rules can be modified to allow college athletes to be compensated for their names, images and likenesses." -- Good grief! Thew solution is to stop schools and Sports magazine/shows from profiting from the use of Amateur likenesses as "draw" for gain..and go back to pro-teams not being able t draft them once they sign a college scholarship contract until after 4 years .. (with exceptions if a player goes through a true "hardship" process).

Online story: "Attorney General William Barr has appointed a U.S. attorney to examine the origins of the Russia investigation and determine if intelligence collection involving the Trump campaign was "lawful and appropriate," a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Monday. * Barr appointed John Durham, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut, to conduct the inquiry," -- Hmmm.. aside from pointing any investigative attorney out of a New England state who has zero Republicans representing anybody in Connecticut, I do believe he should have appointed Robert Mueller to investigate the FISA warrants and Steele connections with Hellary. That way, Mueller could give the Democrats .. sorta a redemption...exactly what they were clamoring for... chargeable offenses with merits for convictions!
 
---
Online headline: "Winterlike weather pattern tightens grip on Northeast, unloading snow in some areas" -- Now.. before any whacko leftists start clamoring that it's "climate change", I remember May 15, of 1972 when I awoke that Monday morning in New York City to SNOW!I left Columbus, GA on Mother's Day wearing a short sleeve sport shirt. It was a "buying trip" for our store. None of us had packed for the weather we woke up to on the 15th.. Now if there is any claim to "climate change" in Maryland, it was the day that Arthur Bremer tried to kill George Wallace. It was interesting because Wallace had left the Democrats to form the Dixiecrat Party... and , "NO", Bremer was not a Republican... he was also involved in a plot to assassinate Richard Nixon. BTW, Bremer was paroled in 2007.. there ought to be a law against paroles for presidential assassination attempts..Hmmm... betcha if an assassination attempt had been made.. even disrupted.. against Clinton or Obama, there would be such a law.
 
---
Hmm.. is Columbus (GA) Council still entertaining allowing $150,000.00 and up "tiny houses" to be built in the Historic District? Maybe Council should rethink... then permanently  "quash" that idea.. Amazon is selling a DYI 172 sq ft "tiny house" priced at $7,250.00 (including free shipping" that two people can erect in 8 hours.
 
 
---
From the "Good grief! Will someone please remove the Kool-Aid from the MSM-13's water bottles!" department - Online headline: "Dow drops 600 points after China says it will impose tariffs on U.S. goods" -- China has always imposed tariffs on American goods.. it's been China's way of discouraging the importation of American goods and promoting it's own economy! Trump's plan is to get China to end the disadvantage American manufacturers have.

Hey... amid all the uproar coming out of the Democratic Party right now, how come we haven't heard anything from Florida Congressperson Debbie Washerwoman Schultz? There was a time when her voice was heard on every issue.

Did you see the report claiming GA is the State with the worst credibility for corruption... and New Jersey is the least corrupted? Who knew people actually have been influenced by "That's the Night the Lights Went out in Georgia? But you know what's really disappointing... that California .. with it's "Sanctuary" Laws .. and Cities... and 9th District Court of Appeals judges is rated 4th in the least corrupt list. You know what I'd like to see... a list of party affiliation/support of our 1,800 elected judges.. my bet is on MOST being Democrats..
 
 
---
I'm doubling down on my shock about Democratic Party Congresswoman Tlaib's comment about how she thought of the Holocaust having a "calming effect" for her.. The Democratic Party is defending her! The Democratic Party says it feels Trump should apologize for his condemnation of her "calmness". The Jewish community should be up in arms, not supporting the Democratic Party's anti-Semitic position.

President Trump is right...Big Pharma is a major reason healthcare costs are out of whack. I recently was prescribed a "blood thinner" for the first time, and it's not available in generic form..Mind you, this is a an every day maintenance med, not some short term "cure" med. It costs over $400.00 a month. Hmmm..just saw an ad for a lease on a luxury SUV for $379.00 a month... something is very wrong when a maintenance med costs more per month than a lease for a luxury car.

Did you see the proposed school day times the MCSD sent to the MCSB.. Thanks to Mike Edmondson for speaking up for children and parents alike when he said, "studies show earlier start times to the school day are detrimental to students. * “What we do needs to be research-based and not convenience-based,” he said." -- If you download the PDF file showing the proposed times, you'll see elementary students being scheduled for Bus pickup beginning at 6:00 AM and classes run from 7:45 - 2:45, and last bus drop offs at 3:50. Does anyone at the MCSD realize that this schedule has 6 and 7 year old 1st graders isolated form their homes and parent for up to 10 hours?.. And if these 6 & 7 year olds get even the minimum of 9 hours sleep recommended that there's only 5 other hours for family/play/meal/entertainment time?
 
---
Now MSM-13 is howling about China tariffs being a TAX!. Of course. MSM-13 was completely silent talking about any minimum wage being a TAX. Funny thing is that minimum wage hikes are unavoidable tax increases because they affect every cost related aspect to the bottom line, while tariffs are added on at the end of the pricing process so retailers can choose to buy the product .. or not.. based on price to value..oh..if the owner can't make a profit because of higher cost of labor, he can reduce costs by firing labor but if the vendor charges too much, the retailer just buys something else to sell.
 
---
M/C L-E headline: "Actor Bruce Willis is coming to town. What should he do while he’s here?" -- Hmmm What should Bruce Willis do while he's here.. I'm sure Bruce Willis can figure this out, but he'll probably spend entertainment time in Atlanta
 
---
Bleep Veep Biden was quick announcing that he ASKED Obama NOT to endorse him...yet. Hmm... maybe because Obama might say it's a "BFD", too'...but meaning a "Bonified F***ing Dunce".

From the "hey Columbus, GA Council, how much did you say replacing our Government Center will cost? department - Online headline/story: "Cobb County's Galleria 100 tower sells for $97 Million * Piedmont Office Realty Trust Inc., Atlanta’s sixth largest landlord with more than 2.2 million square feet in Atlanta, bought the tower." -- and it was developed in 1982.. so it's more than 10 year newer than our Government Center. Maybe our Council should seek some Atlanta businesses for construction bids.

M/C L-E story: "City Parks and Recreation Director Holli Browder has confirmed that the Psalmond Road and Shirley Winston pools will remain closed for the 2019 season, which starts May 25, because the council is not currently funding repairs necessary to reopen the pools." -- Wow.. we have a Natatorium "draining" cash out of the City coffers' but Council cannot... will not fix the draining of water from two very popular summer water facilities for two straight YEARS!. Make sure this makes it onto ex-Mayor Tom-LYING-son's web and Senate campaign sites! Oh! Also make sure it also shows up on the 2020 Council Post sites of those running for re-election!

Ooops.. the M/C L-E Fore closure pages just jumped from 6 to 7 pages.. I do believe that's a nearly a 17% jump.. and another "hole in the dam" we have too plug following ex-Mayor Tom-LYING-son's term s in office here in Columbus.
