Online headline: "Witches around the world are casting a spell on Donald Trump
once a month" -- Hmmm... I didn't know Pelosi, Feinstein, Warren, Washerwoman
Schultz, Murray, Collins, and Jackson-Lee joined Hellary, Whoopi, and Behar for
a monthly "afternoon pee party".

Online headline: "U.S. appeals
court rules against broad interpretation of Trump's travel ban" -- You know..
this is political BS.. Why should a lesser court even entertain a Presidential
Executive Order...if a lower court get such a case, it should be immediately
sent to the US Supreme Court....the only Court given equal Constitutional status
with the Executive Branch.

Online headline/story:
"Applebee's is ditching millennials after they forced hundreds of restaurant
closures * Applebee's has given up on millennials. * The chain's failed
attempt to win over millennial diners is at least partially to blame for
struggles, according to executives. * "Over the past few years, the brand's set
out to reposition or reinvent Applebee's as a modern bar and grill in overt
pursuit of a more youthful and affluent demographic with a more independent or
even sophisticated dining mindset, including a clear pendulum swing towards
millennials," John Cywinski, Applebee's brand president, said in a recent call
with investors." -- Hmm.. as soon as the Board has replaced Cywinski, it
probably will replace its Marketing&Research Director... obviously the
M&R Director didn't consider that most millennials are probably
under-employed and still living with their parents..and order off the Kiddie
Menu. Sorry Applebee's, us parents got your message years ago, and have
different restaurants we now enjoy.

pair bought the property last year and have yet to begin construction on the
property. * The “Taxi Driver” star’s concerns were with the island itself and
the welfare of the people, according to his rep Stan Rosenfield." -- "concerns
were with the island itself and the welfare of the people, according to his rep
Stan Rosenfield"? Good grief.. if Di Niro's "concerns" wee real, he, not his

dealt with Democrats have only themselves to blame..Every Congressman,
Republican and Democrat, is going to be measured against Trump in the 2018
elections.

Trump IS the smart businessman we elected.. Schumer,
Pelosi, Ryan and McConnell have all hoisted themselves on their own petards...
Trump has shown mainscream media he can , and is willing to, work with Congress
and get things done, and now it's Congress's turn to show America,, particularly
mainscream media, that Congress can/will work with Trump.

From the
"details are in the Democrats' voting lists" department - Online headline/story:
"Out-of-staters may have won New Hampshire for Clinton, data suggest * New data
suggest that more than 5,000 people who cast ballots in New Hampshire in the
2016 U.S. presidential election might not have been residents of the state *
These voters likely used out-of-state driver’s licenses and have not since
obtained an in-state license or registered a vehicle * The new figures could
potentially call into question the validity of the New Hampshire results for
Nov. 8, when Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton outpolled Republican nominee
Donald Trump by a mere 2,736 votes. * certain practices of voter registration,
such as same-day registration, claiming lax rules invite fraud and abuse of the
electoral system * According to the data, 6,540 people registered to vote, and
voted in the New Hampshire election, provided just out-of-state license. * Only
15 percent, roughly about 1,014 of the voters, have since obtained the in-state
license, while 200 other people had since registered a vehicle in the state.*
Despite New Hampshire law mandating that drivers acquire a state driving license
within 60 days of becoming a resident in the state, more than 80 percent of
people who registered to vote with out-of-state licenses still had not received
their in-state license or registered a new vehicle – nearly 10 months after the
election. * In addition, 196 people were under investigation for voting in two
states. * three elections in New Hampshire were won by fewer than 5,000 votes,
the Concord Patch reported. Clinton won against Trump by 2,736 votes, Democratic
Gov. Maggie Hassan beat U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte by 1,017 votes and U.S. Rep.
Carol Shea-Porter won against incumbent U.S. Rep. Frank Guinta by 4,900 votes."
-- Hmmm.. just the reversal of the Hassan-Ayotte results would have passed the
OObamaCRAP repeal... All those votes shou;d be disqualified, and also checked
against the polling data in the individual's polling place assigned to their
driver's license address...
Remember when corporations rushed to register
their "homes" as Delaware to get corporate tax relief? Well, would you believe
that now Delaware is the second highest state for corporate tax collections?
First of course, is New Hampshire -- you know, the one I just wrote about

yesterday, and saw a price on the side of a truck. $11,0170 it read. Pretty
good, I thought.. Then I looked again..it read $11,017...OFF!. I thought, good
grief, I remember when I could have bought 3 or 4 trucks for $11,017
total.

While riding by that same Dealer, I saw another car with a
sign that read , "0% Interest for 72 Months"... Hmm, I thought, who would buy a
new car that didn't get a warranty that lasted as long as the

How can we get Hellary's book tour extended? The more she

followed her around and bought up every copy and held a giant book-burning party

donate it to a school to public library to make sure every student reads it and
learns what liberalism/socialism is actually about.

It's also true that racism is a two way street, and it's also true Christians must stand up against false prophets. Satan, and unwarranted religious persecution..

Big trucks were everywhere coming back from Atlanta! Love it! It's my number one economic indicator for a growing America..Dems and RINOs take heed..you are competing against Trump in the 2018 elections!

Now that the Big Trucks are running again, let's talk safety. We were in the rain coming home, and trucks passed us on both sides..Our legislators might want to consider a law requiring Big Trucks to stay in the right lane and travel at a top speed of 55 when it's raining or just wet conditions. Hmmm, I wonder if I got one of those advertising car wraps with Ken Nugent's face plastered across the rear whether Big Trucks would consider not passing us.

From the "hey, Charlie Rangel.. we knew you couldn't hide forever" department: "Democrat Rep. Charlie Rangel has found himself in a bit of a pickle. After years of allegedly thumbing his nose at pesky things like rules, his supposed misdeeds may be coming back to bite him on the proverbial hind quarter.
A House ethics committee subpanel today found Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel guilty of 11 of the 13 charges of ethics violations against him. * The panel, composed of four Democrats and four Republicans, emerged after private deliberation to announce their findings." -- It's almost gratifying that a panel, equally represented by Democrats, would find any charges against Rangel valid.. but I'm going to bet, the two charges they didn't convict him on were the ones that should have been included.. Now, getting even a Republican House to enforce the tools they have to sentence Rangel will leave the House still tainted.. after all, it's just a few ethics thingies...and what's that compared to staying whole.

Online headline/story: "Catholic leaders speak out against Trump's 'reprehensible' decision on DACA * Leaders of the Catholic church in the U.S. are taking a firm stance against President Trump’s decision to cancel the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy." -- Hmmm.. don't you wish the Catholic leaders had spoken out as quickly and forcefully when the first priest was outed for molesting children?

Online story: " (Robert Wright) Lee (IV’)s vocal anti-racism advocacy work earned him an invitation to speak at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards. On Aug. 27, he appeared at the awards show to “call on all of us with privilege and power to answer God’s call to confront racism and white supremacy head-on.” Lee announced he would be leaving Bethany United Church of Christ in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, explaining that some members of the congregation were “uncomfortable with the attention the church was receiving.” “The church’s reaction was deeply hurtful to me,” Lee wrote in his statement. * Lee declined to comment further on his departure from the church but said he felt “convinced” that fighting against racism was a Christian value." -- You know, Lee's statement that "fighting against racism was a Christian value" is true.. It's also true that racism is a two way street, and it's also true Christians must stand up against false prophets. Satan, and unwarranted religious persecution.. Jesus did not ignore the money-changers at the temple.

Online headline: "Illinois Democrat Gutierrez: Kelly a 'disgrace to the uniform' over DACA" -- Good grief.. how is Gutierrez even ALLOWED to serve the same government as General John Kelly?

Online headline: "'Goonies' star Martha Plimpton says she had her 'best abortion' in Seattle * Actress Martha Plimpton was cheered on by an audience after boasting she had her "best" abortion in Seattle." -- Hmm.. hey Martha Plimpton... not all your audience "cheered".. God was there, too, in spite of your beliefs.. uh.. NON-Belief, and HE was taking notes to discuss with you later... OR NOT.

You know.. CNN has not.. has STILL not addressed it's anchor Kamau Bell's antifa rally reference to calling all attendees to a prayer rally in San Francisco as "Nazis". We cannot even suggest that CNN has a "double standard" as it appears that CNN has NO standard.

Online headline/story: "Texas voter ID law OK for now; appeals court blocks injunction * Texas Republicans won a minor victory Tuesday in their battle to implement a voter identification law. * By a 2-1 vote, a federal appeals court panel in New Orleans stayed a permanent injunction to throw out the law, which requires voters to present an accepted photo ID card." -- "Texas Republicans won a minor victory"? What mainscream bias! This wasn't a minor victory for Texas Republicans, it was a MAJOR victory for all American citizens in ALL 50 states.

You wonder if MayorYom-LYING-son has programmed how pedestrians/runners are supposed to negotiate roundabouts? Older pedestrians, in particular, will have to re-learn what they were taught growing up -look both ways, then proceed with caution - but millennials and snowflakes will have to be retrained altogether because there are no "walk/don't walk" lights to guide them.

You know..Trump can solve our southern border issues... and with the blessing of Dems and mainscream media alike. Instead of "the Wall", Trump just needs to install solar panel fields all along our border..the heat generated will zap illegals trying to get through them like similar fields already do to birds flying over them.

How novel...we were in Atlanta Tuesday to go to a sonogram of our next grandchld, and we actually got to drive on arterial and residential roads that have been recently resurfaced. Before we left, I hit 2 potholes taking my cat to the vets for an overnight stay.. and both were just the lesser of potholes I had to choose from which I would dodge. We so badly need another Red McDaniel on our Council!

provided Hellary with 16,400,663 of her votes.. almost 7,000,000 more than Trump

more votes in the other 47 states.. this, my liberal friends is why Trump beat
y'all's messenger by so many Electoral College votes.. put simply.. AMERICA
SPOKE... LOUD and CLEAR!

do, traffic experts say. * It’s called the zipper merge, and it’s been shown in
studies to be more efficient, much faster and much safer than merging “politely”

Red Lights here without thought of slowing down for a yellow signal, and the
liberals want drivers to "be polite".. I guess it's theoir way of explaining how
"roundabouts" on major highways will be a massive failure... I recommend driving

it's not the guns from Gun Shows that put people on the street in jeopardy..
thiose sales are covered by rigid regulations.. the problem is stolen guns
illegally ending up in the hands of criminals.. What we need is MORE policemen

be 100% American by our laws.

Wow! Did you see the end
of the UCLA-Texas A&M game last night? A young Aggies team blew a 34 point
lead and got beat 45-44 in the last 2 minutes of the game.. It seemed to be a
case of a young Aggie team "not knowing how to win" as a 34 point lead steadily
dissipated as the Aggies played defense like they were hoping the clock would
mercifully run out before the Bruins crossed the goal the last time..
Interestingly..the Fox Sports announcers seemed way to biased as the Bruins
won.. but beside that, the real losers were the Bruins fans...Huh.. you say..
Well many left after halftime with the Aggie's leading 38-10... more left as the
Aggies tacked on 2 more field goals to raise the score to 44-10..but the joy in
LA will take another hit as the bookies call the Bruin bettors to collect the
money lost on a Bruins bet on the game.. The line was UCLA -4... well, there is
some solace for the Aggie bettors.

L-E "soundoff": " Historic note - Those groups stating “my country,”
remember the first two men who had died for this country, Peter Salem and
Crispus Attucks, were black men.We complain about how our students seem to be
uninformed about our American history, but perhaps having them "misinformed" is
even worse... Crispus Attuck was killed in the Boston Massacre in 1770, along
with 4 other Boston citizens who were protesting a British soldier striking a
boy for complaining about a Britix=sh officer being late in paying for a rip to
a barber shop.. Attuck, who was using an assumed name because he was a runaway
slave from a Framingham. MA citizen, is listed as the fisrt colonist killed in
the Boston Massacre, but unwarranted killings of American colonist began long
before this, The Peter Salem mention didn't die until August of 1816.. hardly a
casualty of the American Revolution. Salem was a noted soldier of such and
participated in the 1775 confrontation at Concord more than a year before the
Declaration of Independenc was signed and delivered. This nby no means is to
negate the importance of Crispus Attucks nor Peter Salem, but just to not let
misinformation gravitate into "fact"( something the L-E has no interest in
doing).

- L-E headline/story: " Auburn Public Library will eliminate overdue fines *
The report says the board wishes to make the library accessible to as many
people as possible, and that approximately 15 percent of registered patrons no
longer can use the library because of the fines and fees on their accounts. Some
can’t afford to pay them. * By eliminating overdue fines, the library board
hopes to see more people using the library. * People with overdue items will not
be allowed to borrow any additional items. Once an item is 30 days overdue, the
patron will be billed for the replacement cost of the item. However, if the
patron returns the item, any replacement charges will be waived." -- Hmmm..
eliminate fines so person with overdue material will return them, but also
eliminate those persons' library privileges// hmmm.. that'll get back all that
material for sure.... NOT! Good grief.. this is even worse that asking them to
bring that stuff back then giving them borrowing privileges again...

Good grief, I've never seen a tree who could note the danger a fire presents and decide to move out of that vicinity..and (drum roll for another "Good Grief!") I can plant another tree, but I cannot "plant" another bride or daughter and restore my life.

I hope every high school football coach in America went to midfield following their Friday night games and took a knee in prayer for our country, and for families displaced by Hurricane Harvey. I hope every college coach does that today as well, and, on the other hand, in Sunday, I hope every NFL coach kicks the butts of any players taking a knee in protest of our flag & National Anthem.

L-E headline: "MUSCOGEE COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT * Judge: ‘Stocking Strangler’ Carlton Gary denied retrial" -- Let the healing begin! After 31 years, there is only one living family member of the victims of Carlton Gary's reign of terror in Columbus..at least let him see justice carried out.

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "They voted for him because he said out loud what they were thinking. An ignorant, petty, immature and crude bully is what they like in a leader." -- No, we supported Trump because we were tired of the lies and scandals from Hellary, Obama, and the DNC and establishment Republicans. IT's still sad that those opposed to him cannot see the good he's already accomplished in spite of the bi-partisan support of Dems/RINOs

HuffPOOPOO headline: "Dan Rather says Trump is ‘seized with fear’ over Mueller
investigation" -- "Trump...'seized with fear"? Good grief... the truth is that
Dan Rather is "besieged with fear" that only the HuffPOOPOO will even give him
his desperate need for pertinence.

From the "Let's go back in time" department - A year ago, this headline hit the mainscream media frenzy: "Colin Kaepernick: I won't stand 'to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses Black people" -- Let's face it.. is there a single flag in Africa flying over a country that isn't STILL oppressing its population? And as far as KaeperPRICK landing a "football" job in Africa... there are no "quarterback positions" in soccer.

From the "is it your bias or your intolerance showing" departmeny - Online headline/story: "CNN Silent After Commentator 'Incited Rage' at Antifa Rally * CNN commentator W. Kamau Bell - who hosts "The United Shades of America" - spoke at Antifa's "No Hate in the Bay" rally in California. * Bell willingly and earnestly partook in the raucous protest. * Bell willingly and earnestly partook in the raucous protest" -- Now the good news... Now CNN will be forced to address Bell's participation which makes CNN now have to look into a mirror at its future relevance.. as it stands, CNN has to compare what its own employee was doing while Trump supporters in Texas and Louisiana were unselfishly out saving people of all races from the ravages of Harvey.

While there is nothing "humorous" about the flooding in Texas and Louisiana, an occasional moment does bring a smile and a chuckle. Such was one yesterday.. a dutiful cameraman, his soaked t-shirt and cargo-shorts sagging downward from the weight of the water, was following a rescue crew as they carried an injured person on a stretcher. As the crew was about to load the stretcher into a van, said cameraman darted to the side of the action, and bent over to lower his camera angle to get a different view. Unbeknownst to the hard working cameraman, was another camera crew was catching all the action as well. Well, when the first cameraman went to the side of the rescue crew, and as he bent over to lower his camera angle, he exposed about an 8'"-to-10" "buttcrack" which was center screen on the network camera crews shot. Bless his heart.

Online headline: "Comey began drafting 'exoneration statement' before interviewing Clinton, senators say" -- You know.. Comey hung himself out to dry when he stated that no transcripts or video recordings were made of Hellary depositions/interviews.. There's not a law enforcement agency in this country that doesn't record such witness/persons-of-interest sessions.

Online headline/story: "Americans paying more in taxes than for food, clothing * In an assessment of “Consumer Expenditures” for 2016, the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed the average bill for federal, state and local taxes was $10,489. * According to the BLS, federal income taxes rose from $5,743 to $8,367 in that period. State and local income taxes rose from $1,629 to $2,046. * By comparison, Americans spent $9,006 on food and clothes, with most of that going toward food." -- Hmm.. and this doesn't include the regressive local sales taxes that basically cripple available cash for private sector community growth in the Columbus,GA-Phenix City,AL SMA as the area pays more than 8% overall in local and state sales taxes.

The movie industry needs to add a new category of "ratings". I keep seeing trailers that obviously should be rated "S" for stupid.

From the "did I miss this Wednesday/Thursday in the Columbus L-E?" department - WRBL3 headline: "New I-185 interchange coming to south Columbus" -- One of the things that should be closely monitored is costs of land acquisition for properties where the new interchange will displace.. According to the Tax Assessors Board, all properties have been reassessed and show their "true" Fair Market Value, so when prices are being "negotiated", any price paid higher than current FMVs should not only be scrutinized, but back taxes assessed on the value the current owners feel they are worth.

Los Angeles just dumped Christopher Columbus and will now celebrate Indigenous People Day. LA claims Columbus was a killer, sex and slave trader. Hmmm .. it's amazing that the home of Hollywood feels Columbus is the root cause of all their decadence. and moral breakdowns that they capitalize on, and yet condemn Columbus for it.

Online headline: "Georgia lawmakers brace for delicate debate over Civil War monuments" -- Once again I say.. won't the statue of Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.. standing amidst, equal, and toe-to-toe with Civil War era icons be testimony, not only to his resolve, but the success of his movement that's brought about social changes not imaginable 75 years ago.

Common sense L-E "soundoff": "Common-sense agenda It’s a pity the
Democratic Party can’t express national goals such as jobs, infrastructure,
health care and reasonable immigration policy. Seems simple to me." -- Oh.. it's
not that they don't talk it, but Dems will intentionally NOT deliver it because
it would take away their arguments/promises for their re-election
campaigns..,

For a rainy afternoon change-ofipace, my bride and I took in a matinee
showing of "Logan Lucky".. and boy were we lucky.. We were the only people there
, and it was showing in one of the Star Lounger seated theaters. The cast was
outstanding, and the humor and plot were seductive and first rate.. You may not
be as "lucky" as my bride and I, but you will enjoy it (well if you're not
fuming over the costs of tickets and concessions). Oh, a word to
millennials/snowflakes...; the humor is over your heads.. way over!

Have you seen the "busts" made recently over small things like busted
taillights etc? Just confirmation that law enforcement will benefit.. therefore
the public will also, if car tags are required to have a proper expiration decal
attached to them.. Small things are helpful to our warriors in blue.

Content of a "letter to the editor" in today's L-E: "As a member of
Indivisible Columbus, Ga. (indivisiblecolumbusga.com), I was part of the group
outside the Trade Center Monday afternoon asking Senator Perdue to hold an
overdue town hall meeting. * Our peaceful demonstration was a simple request for
representation of all of Perdue's constituents, and that he vote with conscience
and not just party lines. * Most of these members have lived and worked in this
city for 20-plus years. We care deeply about our government and choose to be
active participants.– Judy Barnett, Columbus" -- Heh heh heh...well Judy is one
of less than 50 people shown on their FB page who never vote against their own
party's line, and she is not a member of the other 199,000+ people in Columbus
who weren't protesting Perdue's appearance.
