From the "DOH!" department - Online headline: "Taliban stop planes from leaving, but unclear why" -- Good grief! It sounds rather obvious to me... if someone is desperate to leave Afghanistan... now... is enough reason for Taliban wanting to check them out a bit further...Kabul Airport is like a big trap, now.. and airplanes are basically "the CHEESE"!

When Hurricane Ida passed through Louisiana, it immediately left about 1,100,000 people there without power..Sunday morning it was reported that now there are only 600,000 still without power, and it's expected to be restored to all by midweek.. that's pretty amazing!

Special local announcement for Columbus, GA readers.. go ahead and get your absentee ballots for the November referendum on the $400,000,000.00 SPLOST tax. Don't be lulled by lack of media discussion into letting November slip up on you. Your "NO" vote matters!

From the "talk about hypocrisy" department - Online headline: "Republicans don't deserve House majority if they push lies -Adam Kinzinger" -- Hmmm.. I agree.. but it should apply to all Representatives... and starting with Adam Kissinger who's living the biggest LIE of all.. parading around as a Republican while actually being a Jack-RINO hybrid...

Wow! What defenses we saw in the UGA-Clemson game Saturday night! It was like watching a 21st Century "fantasy matchup" with Woody Hayes (Ohio State's coach of the 50s-70s) calling the offense for both teams.. "three yards and a cloud of artificial turf pellets"...... even for the passing game!

From the "was Dan Quayle in charge of the uniform order?" department - Online story: "Indiana’s Saturday afternoon in Iowa City got off to a brutal start — even before the Hoosiers took the field at Kinnick Stadium. * David Holloman was featured in a tweet sent out by the Hoosiers’ athletic department on Saturday ahead of No. 17 Indiana’s 34-6 loss to No. 18 Iowa, though there was one big spelling error on his jersey. * Indiana was misspelled “Indinia” on jersey number "33"

From the "amazing" department - Online headline: "September 18: Fears mount over a second insurrection by rightwing extremists at upcoming Capitol rally" --Good grief! MSM can go to Portland, OR most any weekend and find an actual "antifa insurrection" ... pretty much led by it's mayor...yet goes ballistic in anticipation of an repeat event that didn't happen..

---
Online headline: "White House keeping Kamala Harris from Afghanistan crisis 'to stop contamination'" -- Question: How does insulating... isolating... her from decision making and reality make her presidential material?

---
Online headline: "Milley says civil war in Afghanistan ‘likely’ after US withdrawal, could lead to 'reconstitution of al Qaeda'" -- Seriously.....he couldn't surmise...or at least imagine... this would be what would inevitably happen?

---
You know, JoKKKe Biden originally set September 11th his target date to vacate Afghanistan.. but.... somebody remembered that was not a day they wanted associated with the latest fiasco giving al Qaeda a second celebration on the 20th Anniversary of 9-11-01.

---
I guess CNN has decided that supporting JoKKKe Biden's Afghani fiasco will be less costly than apologizing to America and President Trump for the lies CNN employees have broadcast over the years.

---
Online headline/story: "Texas murder suspect's bond revoked after she allegedly stabbed potential witness * The Harris County District Attorney’s office released a report last week that said judges who release defendants on bond are driving a rise in crime * Although the Harris County district attorney’s office requested a $100,000 bond for Washington last year, District Court Judge Chris Morton lowered it to $50,000. Washington posted bond and was released from jail last December, the station reported." -- Hmmm.. and this was an elected judge... Democrat ... of course..

---
As hard as JoKKKe Biden and his White House "handlers" try to blame the Afghanistan fiasco om Trump, it's not sticking.. even with the MSM community.. Now, if there was an administration that should have been blamed for the mess they left an incoming administration, it was the Obama-Biden team... and their empty closet of general pandemic equipment/gear.. there were literally NO working respirators nor protective gear to tackle Covid-19 on Day 1 of Trump's term...

---
Did you see the sold-out Big House Saturday for the Michigan/Western Michigan game? It holds 107,000 fans! Didn't see any masks on the players, the sidelines...not even on the refs... The TV camera operators did their best not to show the stands but didn't see any there either... wonder where Governor Whitmer...or her husband were....maybe they were visiting their daughters in the Michigan student section...

There'll be no "defunding the police" for this Democrat Mayor!

From the "Hey, Chuckles Harris! Could it simply be when you told them "Not to Come", they were responding , "No habla Ingles"?" department - Online headline/story: "New migrant caravan sets off for U.S. from southern Mexico * Many in the group, which included Venezuelans and other South Americans, said they were fleeing poverty and violence at home as they began trekking towards the town of Huixtla. -- Hmmm..
"fleeing poverty and violence at home...many from Venezuela"? Hey... isn't Venezuela the country our Socialist-Democrat Party uses to promote as the "working model" for the government they wanted for the US?

---
Did you read about the 37 year old mother and 10 year old daughter from Colombia who died in an Arizona desert after her "smuggler" abandoned them? The mother called 911, but by time the CBP located them from her phones GPS signal, they both had died.... JoKKKe Biden and Chuckles Harris consider this part of their humanitarian agenda...

---
From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online "story": "A proposed redrawing of Colorado’s congressional districts places the residence of Republican U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert within the district of a Democratic congressman, according to reports. * it means Boebert would have to run in a more heavily Democratic district if she seeks reelection in 2022"? (*Note below) No it doesn't..... Maxine Waters doesn't live in her District...in fact, there have been times when about 2 dozen Congressional Representatives... mostly Democrats... lived in residences outside of their elected district...and could not vote for themselves.

 

(*)Note: Story was changed within a hour of my highlighting it to correct the initial mistake .. per our Constitution, Congressional candidates only have to live in their state.

WTVM-TV9 Online headline/story: "Facebook sorry for ‘primates’ label on video of Black men * the video was posted by a tabloid in June and showed Black men in altercations with white civilians and police officers. After the video ended, an automatic message popped up that said “keep seeing videos about Primates," -- Oh? Being "sorry" makes it "OK" to slur a race if you are a Facebook owner and donate to Democrats...... AND SLUR all Christians too? Hey... if you believe in Darwinism rather than creationism, then all "humans" have ape connections....

---
Online headline: "(Chuckles) Harris to campaign for Newsom in California next week" -- Good grief! If I were Newsom, I wouldn't want Chuckles campaigning FOR me..., but the real question here is, "Why is the US Vice President trying to fix a political problem in a single state rather than addressing issues that all 50 states share in common?"

By the way... california Public employee unions are the biggest contributors to Newsom, but George Soros is in for more than $1 million, and Netflix's CEO is in for $3 Million, but it's the Public Employee Unions that should be banned from political donations... who knows what promises have been made if Newsom survives.

---
Still looking for those "ALM" flags and banners.. you know, flags and banners that address the plights of Americans and Afghanis... "American/Afghani Lives MATTER"!

---
With any luck, maybe Columbus Council will address some projects they feel justify a new $400,000,000.00 sales tax on the ballot in November... I'm against it until Council can show me otherwise...

---
From the "I'm from the government... TRUST ME!" department - Online headline: "Pentagon spokesman declines to name ISIS terrorists killed in airstrike, says 'no question' target was 'valid'" -- "Trust me"? Yeah, right.... these are the same folks that believe Venezuela is the greatest example of what the Socialist-Democrats want to emulate...

---
From the "travesty personified" department - Online headline/story: "The computer repairman with Hunter Biden's laptop lost his lawsuit against Twitter and has to pay the company's legal fees" * District Judge Beth Bloom dismissed the case against the social media company with prejudice, meaning the case cannot be brought to court again. Bloom also ordered the plaintiff, John Paul Mac Isaac, to pay Twitter's attorney fees via Florida's anti-SLAPP statute." -- Excuse me... but how did this end up in Florida in front of a judge appointed by the Obama/Biden? To begin with, the computer repair shop is in DELAWARE, and the judge that was assigned the case probably sends Christmas Cards to the Bidens...

---
From the "Red Allen, "Well.. how about that" department - Online headline/story: "Pelosi hears from GOP as Dem bill directs $200M to park in her San Francisco district * The House speaker is known to frequent the Presidio Park herself * Pelosi helped build support to create the Presidio Trust when the park transitioned from a military installation in the 1990s." -- Whoa! Now get this "@SpeakerPelosi," while also noting the Presidio Trust page says it works "at no cost to taxpayers." " -- "at no cost to taxpayers."? Good grief! Our government's House Speaker apparently either "doesn't know"... or more likely... "doesn't want voters to know" that officially, the federal government has NO MONEY, and can only spend what it takes out of current and future taxpayers pockets!

---
Online headline: "Biden to travel to New Jersey, New York next week to survey Hurricane Ida storm damage" -- And you know what, both NY & NJ are so political they'll probably stop cleaning up.. heck, they may even hire looters over the weekend to add to the mess!

---
Online headline: "Taliban spokesperson warns US not to interfere with their culture, treatment of women" -- Hmmm... maybe the opponents of "the Squad" should focus on this video during he 2022 Elections...

---
Online story: "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) blocked GOP representatives from reading on the House floor the names of the 13 United States troops who were killed in a terrorist attack in Kabul, Afghanistan last week. * “We gaveled in, had a prayer, said the Pledge of Allegiance, took a moment of silence with pretty much all Republican veterans, then asked to be recognized to read names and bring up Afghanistan legislation,” Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL) told the outlet. “They did not acknowledge us, and just closed the House down.” -- It doesn't HAVE to be this way.. This is a PeLOUSY thing...

Online headline/story: ' Labor union's disturbing sign outside elementary school prompts drastic action from superintendent * The superintendent took matters into his own hands, and pushed over the display * A labor union set up a disturbing display of a casket and a photo depicting a dead person’s feet outside of a grade school in New Jersey to protest the district hiring a contractor for a construction project, which sparked the school’s superintendent to knock it over. * The situation unfolded on Friday, after LIUNA Laborers Local 77 had already set up an inflatable rat at the school earlier this week to protest a $9 million construction project at the school. The district was required to hire the lowest bidder for the project, Pal-Pro Builders of Bergen County, but the union said the group does not hire local workers" -- The video is worth clicking on the URL:

From the Deja PU.. instant replay" department - Online headline: "Biden to storm-ravaged Louisiana.: 'We're going to have your back'" -- 'We're going to have your back'"? Wait a minute... isn't that what he promised NATO, Afghanistan, and American citizens and Afghani translators about a week ago?

WRBL-TV3 headline/story: "Man dead following Schaul Street shooting in Columbus * Columbus Police are investigating an overnight shooting near Schaul Street and Henry Avenue. Deputy Coroner Charles Newton tells News 3 Daquan Jones, 20 of Columbus, died early Friday morning from a gunshot wound to the head. He was pronounced dead at 12:36 a.m." -- That's number 48.... plus at least 3 victims of "vehicular homicide" which doesn't seem to qualify as a death by weapon...

---
Looks like "official" homicide number 49.. in the parking lot of Peachtree Mall here in Columbus, GA.. guess the Mall better put some dogs OUTSIDE as well.. .. and that doesn't count the pending critical states of a woman and a 2-year old shot last week and hanging on.. Also doesn't count 3 "vehicular homicides" either...

Just for the record. I've e-mailed a question to a Coroner's Office employee: "Why aren't vehicular homicides counted in the total number of homicides?" Hoping I get a prompt satisfactory answer...

---
Online headline: "Pawnbrokers say Macon-Bibb mayor's proposal to extend ban on new pawn shops 'a slap in the face'" - Good grief! Socialism at work! Why doesn't the mayor just ban crime instead!

WTVM-TV9 headline/story: "Judge denies motion to dismiss charges against District Attorney Mark Jones * “He’s not going to take a deal on a fake case. He would be able to keep his job, and it would not impact his ability to practice law * three of the four co-defendants on the case agreed to plea deals and will have to serve 12 months probation and pay a fee. The trial for the District Attorney is set for the 13th of this month." -- Wait a minute... It's nice to know that our judge is not "swayable"... but I do want to know WHO offered the DA a plea deal.. especially one that doesn't affect his elected status? Let's face it .... he hired people to commit a crime...

From the "desperate times cause for desperation" department - Online headline: "Democrats Introduce Bill Creating 18-Year Supreme Court Term Limits, Nominations Every Two Years * The bill, introduced by Reps. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), Don Beyer (D-Va.), Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) would create 18-year term limits for Supreme Court justices, though it would not apply to justices currently serving. * The bill would also give presidents the ability to nominate a new justice every two years and require the Senate to act on each nomination within 120 days before the nominee is automatically seated." -- Good grief! Not only is this Constitutionally invalid, it's also a veiled way to stack the Supreme Court with up to 9 new justices! Their bill want apply to current sitting justices, but makes nominating and seating a new justice every two years begin with zero vacancies. What if none of the current justices retires or dies in the next 18 years (it could happen!)... we could end up with 18 justices and a need for 10 to make a decision...

Now.. for these gungho-term-limit-inclined Democrats.. where's your bill to limit House member to three terms and Senate members to 2 terms?

---
We have got to disconnect the Clintons' phone-line to the White House off! Since JoKKKe Biden has deemed his Afghanistan policy a "success", we must assume the Clintons redefined the meaning of it...

---
You know, what is JoKKKe Biden... his "handlers" as well.. thinking? Friday, he came and read on TV about the current jobs market... of course he didn't speak at all about the lousy job he's doing. Sadly, JoKKKe Biden tried to take credit for the job market growth compared to the 2020 pandemic time frame which had collapsed due to Biden's Chinese buddy Xi's coronavirus. What JoKKKe Biden didn't mention was that while 235,000 jobs were created, we were expecting 768,000! Biden also failed to mention was we'd still be in dire straits if President Trump hadn't spearheaded the "Warp Speed" vaccine program. It's not ironic...it's MORONIC that JoKKKe Biden is not aware that he shouldn't be proud of his Afghan AND job creation failures.... and doesn't even know why....

---
Now this is IRONIC as well as MORONIC.....JoKKKe Biden is more willing to try to work with the Taliban than the Republicans.
