Here we are.. at the doorway into 2023... In spite of the best efforts of media and the Democrats.. we have survived, and hopefully will continue to do so. Happy New Year! GO DAWGS!

Retrospect: As we end 2022, we realized that over 500 people in Columbus, GA realized death or injury from gun shots this year. That's nearly 10 Columbus, GA people per week. .but there is more to the figures than meets the eye... First, overall.. more than 1-in-400 people were subjected to violent gun situations. If you break it down by gender, race, or gender and race, the "1-in-X" number escalates... then SOARS!

Hey.. if you have nothing else to celebrate, we can ALL celebrate the absence of Dr Fauci and his "science"!

Wait a minute... We are still learning that Resident Biden, et al, are vacationing at the home with a wealthy donor's villa after being flown to the US Virgin Island hideaway by private jet. Hmmmm... we were told Biden was going to St Croix Island ... but.. that's conveniently close to the Epstein compound on Little St James Island, and who's seen the infamous Epstein " Lolita Express" jet in a while?

From the "this may be the biggest travesty in American history" department - Online lie after lie: "Democrats released six years of former President Trump’s tax return information last week as part of reports into the presidential audit program, revealing that the former president wasn’t receiving regular audits from the IRS and that he was reporting big business losses every year. * Trump’s actual tax returns from 2015 to 2020 are to be released, after Democrats said they needed additional time to redact the documents and remove personal information. * Tax experts aren’t expecting huge revelations from the raw returns, which were summarized in reports from both the Democratic-controlled Ways and Means Committee and the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT). * But the more detailed documents could provide additional information on key areas of interest regarding Trump’s businesses and his professional associations." -- First.. Trump is not on trial... the IRS..who developed its tax code, and Congress, which approved the IRS tax code are the ones actually on trial! Secondly, the so-called "non-partisan" designation for the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) is far from being so...but it's the gestapo actions of the Democrat Party should be focused on! The Democrats have weaponized the IRS to where it's a threat against the Democracy we cherish.... if a former President is not afforded the personal privacy guaranteed by IRS rules and policies, who among us can feel protected? While no man is "above the law", neither is the political agenda of a Political Party. One other thing is of particular interest... the Democrats want to "redact" elements of Trump's tax returns... WHY? You can bet anything the Democrats "redact" will be items that cover their rear-ends, and cover up all details that might elevate Trump.

And if you think you are not in the eye of the IRS, think again.. since the early 80s until I became "eligible" to benefit (?) from MediCare (which I had no choice but to pay into), I've elected to be responsible for healthcare for myself and family.. and, over the years, being "self-pay" (and covering several "major" medical procedures) has paid off based on expenditures vs insurance payments. Well, this week, my bride git a "notice" from the Treasury Department (IRS) that it noticed she didn't have any medical insurance and would she like to talk with "them" about getting some "government based insurance"... This is not a laughing matter.. Looks like those 87,000 "armed" IRS agents to be added may be for pushing/processing more ObamaCRAP insurance!

From the "Inquiring minds want to know" department - A couple of years ago when hospital beds in Columbus, GA were in short supply due to Covid-19 issues, Piedmont announced opening 35 more beds in the Old Drs Hospital next door which was made possible by a donation from AFLAC... QUESTION: Are those 35 rooms still active ..still available .. I ask because a friend of mine had some major surgery this week and was moved to Atlanta for the procedure because of a shortage of rooms.

The Thomas Jefferson High School in Fairfax, VA parents should sue the "one employee" ...and the school system. for hiring said employee... who made a "one time error" by not timely informing National Merit Scholarship winners of their honors/awards given by the National Merit Scholarship Committee of the SATs. Those honors/awards determine many scholarships their children could get, so there was REAL MONETARY DAMAGES inflicted on those students and families. That "one employee" intentionally denied those students.. and their parents.. the benefit of adding those awards/honors to their college applications... and that "one employee" is still one the job being paid for by the taxes those wronged parents are paying.

Wow! Talk about inflation.. uh...super Bidenflation.. the Columbus L-E newspaper is now $3.00 for a daily edition! Hmmm.. on second thought, "inflation" , while true, may not be the best descriptive word... it's more like the Columbus L-E has such an "inflated EGO" it feels that what it publishes is worth more than 2-cents.

From the "BIAS? What bias?" Department- Columbus (GA) Ledger-Enquirer "headLIE"... repeat... HEADLIE!: " Supreme Court REFUSES to lift rule for asylum seekers" -- WRONG! It's about Title 42... and NOTHING ..ZIP.. NADA about "asylum seekers"...Legitimate.. key word.. LEGITIMATE.. "asylum seekers" are treated separately by the State Department. The issue is about Title 42...which is a health issue to protect American citizens from diseases coming into America unchecked. Hmmm... think about this..why would anyone be against keeping viruses from other origins out of our country?

You know... There's really only ONE problem at our SOUTHERN BORDER... the Democrats have handcuffed our law enforcement officers instead of the criminals!

Since 2017, the Washington Post has what may be the most ironic "slogan" in the history of media.. "Democracy Dies in Darkness"....yet the Post.. and Post owner Jeff Bezos.. highly benefit from "darkness". The bane of of the 1st Amendment is 'darkness", yet the Post, and every other form of MainScreamMedia benefit highly from the ever increasing money that is pouring into political ads by PACs and super-wealthy individuals promoting negative ads... character assassination ads...about opponents of a candidate of their "choice". While I am a supporter of "free speech", some reform in political donations needs to be developed.. The simplest solution would be to limit candidates to only receiving/accepting donations from individuals legally ELIGIBLE to vote FOR them, and limiting PAC ads to run ads only for candidates that a majority of the PAC members/donors are eligible to vote for or against the candidate their ads support/demean. There is nothing good.. nothing healthy.. about super-wealthy people of one state or district influencing the Congressional choices of citizens of another state or district. Time has come to reform donations and.. time has come for Congressional Term Limits...The mechanics of 435 Representatives and 100 Senators influencing the direction of America's future to primarily benefit themselves rather than the citizens they supposedly represent NEED for a definitive course direction.

Columbus (GA) L-E headline/story: "Biden officials rush to fill posts for special envoys * President Joe Biden's administration is rushing to fill posts for State Department special envoys and representatives ahead of a January 3 deadline after which most such candidates will be required to get Senate confirmation. * That rule, passed quickly in 2021, closes a loophole" -- Hmmm... "passed quickly in 2021, closes a loophole"? Passed quickly....and QUIETLY! The Democrats anticipated losses in majority in both the Senate and the House, and rammed a backdoor, self-serving rule through to distribute jobs to liberals who would not get approved with a Republican Senate majority.. Oh.. and to make sure the Italian Ambassador's job could get filled by Queen Pelosi or Whoopi Goldberg.. neither of which was a sure bet even WITH a Democrat Senate majority.

FOX News needs to look closer at who .. on the B-team, gets fill-in jobs for the "regulars" during Holiday broadcast shows. The "subs" are naturally excited at the opportunity to display their "wares" ... but because of this the Dems are sending their A-team "contributors" who are having "easy pickings" at promoting their agenda uninterruptedly that normally would be countered by more experienced Fox Newscast people.

SCAM ALERT! Hey... when you hear TV Ads saying some incredible government paid service.. such as MedicAid or SSI, or even telephone "caption equipment/services" are available at "no cost to you", YOU ARE DEFINITELY PAYING FOR IT with your taxes..... whether you actually qualify for or use such government provided services.

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online "headLIE": "Santos should resign, say lawmakers in LGBTQ+ Equality Caucus" -- "say lawmakers"? How about "say DEMOCRATIC PARTY lawmakers... OH.. and name me seven Democrat "lawmakers" that have demanded Senator Bob Menendez, or Senator or President Joe Biden, or President Bill Clinton, or Secretary of State/Presidential candidate Hellary Clinton, or Congressman a Dam Schi**, or Congressman Eric Smalwell, or Queen PeLOUSY, or Senator Warnock etc... etc... etc...resign...
and for the record.. AOL/HuffPOOPOO blocked this post from the ""Conversation" option of the article..

Online headline: "Disneyland makes 'courtesy' plea to visitors after brawls go viral" -- Hmmm... just firing the CEO apparently is has not "saved" Disney.. seems making Disneyland a "sanctuary state" within a "sanctuary state" has created more violence than than before...
---
Online YAHOO headline: "These 3 big pieces of Biden’s agenda kick off Jan. 1" -- Hmmm.. unfortunately, the 3 kicks are in America's groin...

Pele! A life worth remembering!

Online headline: "Police in schools have outsize effect on Black children, report says" -- You know.. if all children were taught at home.. from the gitgo...simply to respect our laws and law enforcement officers, we wouldn't NEED law enforcement officers in our schools. It's that simple!
---
Online headline: "Congressional report: U.S. FDA broke own protocols in approving Biogen Alzheimer's drug" -- Hmmm... and I bet the FDA chief probably used the excuse, "Sorry, forgot about those.."

From the "well, what else can they say?" department - Online headline: 'WH confident about economic recovery in 2023" -- Hmmm.. good grief! What else can Resident Biden's White House "handlers" say?
