 From the "it's just a typical liberal ploy" department - Online headline/story: "I got Putin wrong, says chastened German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier * Steinmeier was a prominent member of a wing of his Social Democratic Party," -- Hmmm...typical liberal ploy.. admit he's wrong only AFTER disaster is no longer repairable.. then apologize.. say, "I've addressed it, now let's move on....

From the "the half-truth is the blackest of all lies" department - Online story: "a new study from the center-left think tank Third Way shows that states won by Trump in the 2020 election have higher murder rates than those carried by Joe Biden. The highest murder rates, the study found, are often in conservative, rural states. * The study found that murder rates in the 25 states Trump carried in 2020 are 40% higher overall than in the states Biden won. (The report used 2020 data because 2021 data is not yet fully available.) The five states with the highest per capita murder rate — Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Alabama and Missouri — all lean Republican and voted for Trump." -- "The highest murder rates, the study found, are often in conservative, rural states"? Hmmm... and in typical liberal form, the "think tank" omits that these 5 states are lower in overall population, but heavily influenced by the Democrat run major cities within them.. there is NOTHING REPUBLICAN about St Louis, MO - New Orleans, LA - Birmingham, AL - Louisville, KY or Jackson, MI.

Online headline: "NCAA president Mark Emmert gets Kansas' name wrong during championship trophy presentation" -- Of course the NCAA has an issue in properly naming winners... it recognized Lia Thomas as a winning woman swimming champ.

---
Online headline/story: "Joe and Jill Biden to host granddaughter's wedding reception at White House, the first since 2008 * Naomi, a 28-year-old lawyer, is the daughter of the Bidens' son Hunter Biden, and the eldest of his five children. Her mother is Kathleen Buhle, Hunter's first wife * The date for Naomi's reception is set to Nov. 19" -- November 19th? Talk about bad timing... that's close to the mid-term election date, and there might not be many Democrats who want to associate with the Biden's by hem.. on top of that, the White House will need at least 2 dogs at the door.. one should be a drug sniffer, and another to sniff out donors now sending money to Republicans..

From the "looking back at a 2018 follow-up news story" department - Online headline: "Al Gore’s 10 Global Warming Predictions, 12 Years Later — None Happened!
 
Gore’s Predictions Fall Flat
 
12 years after Al Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth” (2006) guilt/fear producing predictions, let’s close by examining just how accurate his “science” proved to be on his way to the bank.
 
1. Rising Sea Levels – inaccurate and misleading. Al was even discovered
purchasing a beachfront mansion!
2. Increased Tornadoes – declining for decades.
3. New Ice Age in Europe – they’ve been spared; it never happened.
4. South Sahara Drying Up – completely untrue.
5. Massive Flooding in China and India – again didn’t happen.
6. Melting Arctic – false – 2015 represents the largest refreezing in years.
7. Polar Bear Extinction – actually they are increasing!
8. Temperature Increases Due to CO2 – no significant rising for over 18 years.
9. Katrina a Foreshadow of the Future – false – past 10 years, no F3 hurricanes; “longest drought ever!”
10. The Earth Would be in a “True Planetary Emergency” Within a Decade Unless Drastic Action Taken to Reduce Greenhouse Gasses – never happened.
 
In addition:
This hysteria and apocalyptic fear mongering reminds many of the 1970 Earth Day predictions that fizzled like a firecracker:
End of civilization in 15-30 years ((1985 to 2000---- WRONG!)
100-200 million deaths to starvation yearly for 10 years (WRONG!)
A new ice age by 2000 (WRONG!)

Well... how about Howard Shultz "un-retiring" at Starbucks.. now Schultz is faced with a growing national unionization campaign, a stock that is down more than 21% in 2022 so far, and COVID-19 lockdowns in China bringing uncertainty to the company's second largest market." -- Hmmm.. sounds like Schultz may be more than a little concerned at the future of his wealth since his liberal customers trounced his political venture..

Online headline/story: "A most damaging leak: Biden wants Trump prosecuted * AG Garland is being pressured to bring charges against the former president * After four years of slamming Donald Trump for politicizing the Justice Department, especially under Bill Barr, the media is taking a very different approach to Joe Biden and his AG, Merrick Garland. * Let’s be clear: When partisans demand indictments, it means they only care about securing an outcome that is favorable to their side. They haven’t seen all the evidence, they have no access to grand jury testimony, they just want a political opponent behind bars." -- "When partisans demand indictments, it means they only care about securing an outcome that is favorable to their side"? Hmmm... and he opposite is true, too... When evidence IS PRESENT.. irrefutable... (as in Hellary's "Steele Dossier" and Hunter Biden's "notebook computer") ... returning to Trump is the game plan...

---
Online headline/story: "GOP lawmakers blast Hunter Biden Secret Service detail's $30k monthly rent for mansion * The Secret Service is often forced to rent properties near its protectees, but the high cost still left Republicans stunned" -- Hmmm... actually, "chump change" when compared to what the Secret Service paid the Clinton's for rent on a "dorm" they built of their Chappaqua, NY mansion they bought when he left office...

---
Online headline: "Seattle's crime surge spreads statewide thanks to Democrats' progressive policies" -- DOH!

---
Online headline/story: "Colorado Gov. Polis signs bill creating 'fundamental right' to abortion; denying any right for the unborn * The law explicitly denies rights for 'a fertilized egg, embryo, or fetus' * Polis signed H.B. 22-1279, the "Reproductive Health Equity Act," which the governor said "codifies a person’s fundamental right to make reproductive health-care decisions free from government interference."" -- "codifies a person's fundamental right to make a reproductive healthcare decision free from government interference"? Hmmm.. aside from telling God he;s not in control, does Gov Polis realize that when liberals give permission for parents to choose to mutilate heir children's God chosen gender, they have taken a person's right to make a reproductive healthcare decision for themselves?

---
Online headline: "MSNBC, CNN, celebrities slam GOP and DeSantis over Florida law: 'Nazi pig'" -- I guess the next failed MSM move will be to change the Florida Governor \'s name to Ron DeTrump...

---
Online headline: "Ron Klain solicited money from Hunter Biden for VP residence in 2012, emails show: 'Keep this low low key' * Klain told Hunter ‘raising money for the Residence now is bad PR’" -- "bad OR"?... ""keep this LOW LOW KEY"? Hmmm... What this really sounds like is an attempt at "blackmail"

---
WTVM-TV9 headline/story: "Defense Attorney Stacey Jackson to fill Columbus District Attorney vacancy * Also, today, Governor Brian Kemp appointed Pete Temesgen to the Muscogee County State Court. He will fill the vacancy created by the appointment of Ben Richardson to Superior Court judge." -- Hmmm... Two good men...two good choices...

---
You know, March Madness doesn't mean as much in April...Sorta reminds me when baseball add the extra playoff series and we had to accept the World Series MVP still being called "Mr October" when the championship game is in November.

---
From the "a liberal by any other name is still a liberal" department - Online "headlie": "GOP Gov. Larry Hogan attacks Ron DeSantis, calls Florida parental rights bill 'absurd' * Hogan attacked fellow Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis" -- Larry Hogan is only a Republican by Maryland standards...

---
WTVM-TV9 Story: "Columbus Mayor Skip Henderson teamed with Muscogee County Sheriff Greg Countryman and Police Chief Freddie Blackmon Sunday night to hold a community town hall." -- How come we're having a rash of Town Hall meetings now, but didn't during the 2021 year when homicides increased over 50 percent over 2020... Could it be as simple as an election being less than 2 months away?

---
WTVM-TV9 "headline: "Georgia congressmen oppose proposal to close Guard center *
Democratic U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock pledged to fight to keep the training center open, saying its closure would mean a loss of roughly 100 jobs." -- Desperate times cause for desperate moves... Hmmm... have you noticed the only time Democrats are for the military and law and order is during their re-election year?

---
Online headline: "Biden uses Sacramento shooting to push gun control agenda: 'We must do more than mourn; we must act'" -- Hmmmm.... Sounds to me that criminals are the "thing" that need to be banned. ..from our streets!
