From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline: "White House scaling back Christmas celebrations due to pandemic" -- "pandemic"? More like "PANIC 2022!" As inflation, illegal border crossings, crime rates, and the National Debt soar, how many Democrat Congresspersons want to be seen partying with Resident Biden anywhere?

---
From the "One more reason Dems aren't seen partying with the Bidens" department - Online headline: "Biden admin reverses proposal to stop Trump-era data collection on sexual assaults committed by teachers" -- Good grief! Looks like Democrats want to keep predator teachers out of the news cycle!

---
Oh, great! Well, actually NOT GREAT! Columbus, GA homicides have soared 50% since last year, and now we're hearing that car windows are being broken in "smash & grab" at a huge rate.. the only good thing is that we are not San Francisco.. car owners there are so fearful of glass-smashing that many are leaving their cars on the street unlocked but with hatchback doors open which is an open invitation to use cars as personal Port-a-Potties.

---
Online story: "A judge in Louisiana, Michelle Odinet, has asked for “forgiveness and understanding” after a video surfaced capturing a series of racist remarks as her family gathered to watch security footage of an attempted burglary at their home. * Reached by The Current for comment, Odinet said she had been unable to sleep since the incident, had taken a sedative at the time of the video and didn’t remember what was said." --
How convenient... take a pill and lose your memory of an event... Jon Lovitz probably will add this to his repertoire of "Yeah... That's the ticket! " skits..

---
From the "when justice falls short" department - Online headline: "New York ethics panel orders Cuomo to pay $5.1 million in book earnings" -- This is not enough JUSTICE! The publisher should be made to recall all copies... and reimburse the buyers for their costs...

---
WTVM-TV9 story: "The Liberty Theatre held a brief overview of their strategic plan to raise money and fix their facility at a city council meeting. * Officials for the theatre says it needs about 4-6 million dollars to execute the plan." -- Since a plea before Council has been made, before anything else is discussed, how much money have the City's taxpayers already put into earlier work?

---
WRBL-TV3 headline/story: "Boxwood Recreation Center to temporarily close * The closure of the center, located at 1110 Enoch Drive, is expected to be temporary. * According to city officials, the closure is due to “critical staffing shortages”. Officials say all efforts are being made by the Parks and Recreations Department to get the center reopened and running again as soon as possible." -- We need to rename our unelected government leadership... starting with City MisManager. Schools let out tomorrow, and there will be a demand influx for children's healthy activities.

---
WRBL-TV3 headline: "Buttigieg to visit Port of Savannah" -- Good grief! Talk about a "political photo-op"! Savannah is about the only US seaport that's running efficiently now.

---
WRBL-TV3 story: "In an effort to combat a wave of retail thefts and smash-and-grab robberies, some retailers are setting up coiled wire — not unlike what can often be seen outside a prison — to act as a barrier between potential thieves and high-end merchandise. * The product is called concertina or tangle wire, and its Slinky-like design acts both as a deterrent and a means to slow down thieves. * It’s also safer than the alternative razor or barbed wires * Although it’s not impenetrable, it does work as a visual deterrent and has the potential to slow down thieves in time for police to apprehend them" -- You know, barrier obstruction is going to deter customers more than criminals.....like door locks on your home... they will stop more law abiding people from walking in unexpectedly, but aren't going to stop a home invasion robbery.

In uncertain times, government waste is more intolerable than times... I have made note of what has to be a huge waste at the Columbus Water Works...My account is on "Auto Pay" yet I'm getting snail-mail notices that remind me that I am on "Auto Pay" and this is not a bill so don't pay it..as you'll see, I get the "1st Class main envelope, with a "do not pay" bill, a news letter, and a remittance envelope. I get the bill and newsletter by e-mail as well which saves the cost of mailing, printing, and handling as well as 2 envelopes. This is not the first time I brought this to your attention.. and I'm betting it's probably not the last, either..



-----------------------------------
Online headline/story: "Missouri school district on the hook for $4 million for not letting transgender student use desired restroom * A jury in Jackson County, Missouri ruled on Monday that Blue Springs School District discriminated against a transgender student by not letting him use the boys' restroom or locker rooms at several schools, including the middle school and the Freshman Center." -- Good grief! It ought to be the plaintiff's "burden of proof" he or she is equipped to use a specific public restroom! Hey, certainly some government furnished, eye-witnessed, document could.... should... be required, because if a high school freshman "boy" without the proper plumbing showed up in a real boys locker room, "he'd" soon be wishing he had some sequined RED shoes that "he" could click the heels 3 times, and return "him" to his former self..

---
From the "this'll be a non-starter" department - Online headline/story: "New program in Georgia will provide low-income Black women with extra cash for 2 years * The Georgia Resilience and Opportunity (GRO) Fund is partnering with Give Directly to launch an initiative called ‘In Her Hands.’ The program will give more than 600 low income Black women $850 each month for two years." -- It's nothing more than another version of "affirmative action" but even more blatantly discriminatory...and will not pass muster with the US Supreme Court.

---
WRBL-TV3 headline/story: "Local sheriff’s office starts new initiative to help offenders get their lives back * The Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) has put together a folder with resourceful information to hand to all inmates who are being released back into the community. The folder is known as the Re-Entry Resource Information Folder, those entering back into the community will find several items in the folder to help them get back on their feet. * Inside the folder, former inmates will find a letter of encouragement from Sheriff Greg Countryman. A list of organizations that will help them find temporary housing, transportation, G.E.D. assistance, addiction recovery, expungement, and more. The folder will also provide a list of second-chance employers." -- Hmmm now, if cutting recidivism is the goal, then the number one way is to make sure a first timer LEARNS he does NOT want to come back.. Hard time.. hard work.. Then, even a folder is not going to help, if a prisoner cannot read or do basic math at an adult level.. Teach them to read and do math.. Jobs that will keep them off the street require skills.. teach them craftsman and computer skills so the first time criminals will have careers instead of being career criminals.

---
Online headline/story: "Indiana man charged with Chicago murder allegedly linked to another killing weeks earlier * An accused killer who reportedly once worked for an anti-violence group in Chicago has been charged with committing a murder while free on bond in another case in which he allegedly shot and killed a motorist weeks earlier" -- Hmmm guess this is another liberal attempt at being thoughtful and understanding hoping to thwart recidivism...

---
Online headline: "Oklahoma boy’s arm ripped off by pit bull after trying to pet puppies, police say" -- They need to put those dogs down! ... and then the dog owners, too.

---
From the "talk about ELECTION COLLUSION!" department - Online headline/story: " * Longtime CNN producer John Griffin's devices seized 17 months before child sex trafficking arrest * It also reveals that authorities first became aware of Griffin's depraved proclivities 18 months ago – yet the FBI didn't arrest him until Friday in Connecticut for allegedly soliciting three mothers and their underage daughters for "training" on fetish sex. * The third count in the federal indictment out of Vermont is based on the encounter with the 9-year-old in July 2020, for which Griffin paid the mom $3,500 via Venmo. * After the woman's arrest in August 2020, federal investigators seized "computers storage media, devices, phones, cameras, MicroSD cards, images, and video" from Griffin on Sept. 2, 2020, according to court documents. * The federal indictment accuses him of trying to entice minors to his Vermont vacation home for sexual encounters last year – and one Nevada mom allegedly took him up on the offer in July 2020." -- Good grief! CNN and the FBI colluded to keep this out of the 2020 election news as it would have blown the Cuomos, Biden, and Obama out of the water!

Online headline: "Video shows Biden judicial nominee Dale Ho attacking Senate, Electoral College: They are 'anti-Democratic'" -- Hmmmm...He's obviously anti-Constitution... therefore, not suitable .

---
Did you see... or hear about this? "Family of color playground night" at a Colorado Elementary School. Centennial Elementary even advertised it on the school's "Message Board". Whatever happened to the goal of Diversity, Unity, Inclusion, and Sense of belonging... hmmm ... I guess, in the "Woke" Dictionary, "white" is neither a color nor welcomed. Dr King must feel his life was wasted...

---
For you old timers, this'll probably hit home immediately... for you youngsters, you may have to do a "search" to understand... Sen Richard Blumenthal ... the recent "I'm out of the closet Communist" reminds me of the old cartoon character "Sad Sack" .... he's a complete match..

---
This sounds like "Buckhead" in Atlanta" ... Online headline: "Chicago neighborhood hires private security to ‘help deter the rash of crime’, reports say" -- Sounds like Sanity is raising it's head in response to Democrats!

---

Now it's known that there are still over 900 Americans still wanting out of Afghanistan. Sadly, John Kirby, the Biden friendly, civilian Pentagon Press Secretary was on Fox trying to fast talk the Biden faux pas and lies of the chaos he caused. Needless to say... he wasn't successful
