  1. But if you believe we can all rise together, if you believe we’ve finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us and the seven years before that where we were practicing trickle-down economics with no regulation in Washington, which is what caused the crash, then you should vote for her,” he added.

     

     

     

    No Bill, it was you – it was always you. Nice try, though:

    He was warned. He didn’t care.

     

     

     

    And who can forget this? before the 2012 election

    FACT: President Obama kept his promise to end the war in Iraq. Romney called the decision to bring our troops home “tragic.”

     

    Yes, I keep repeating this stuff. Because it bears repeating. In Iraq, Obama took a war that we had won at a considerable expense in lives and treasure, and threw it away for the callowest of political reasons.

     

    In Syria and Libya, he involved us in wars of choice without Congressional authorization, and proceeded to hand victories to the Islamists.

     

    Obama’s policy here has been a debacle of the first order, and the press wants to talk about Bush as a way of protecting him.

     

    Whenever you see anyone in the media bringing up 2003, you will know that they are serving as palace guard, not as press.

    Plus: Maybe that Iraq withdrawal was a bad thing in hindsight. Obama’s actions, if not his words, suggest that even he may think so.

  3. Has Bill Clinton lost his mind?

    He said:
    "Now if you don’t believe we can all grow together again, if you don't believe we're ever going to grow again, if you believe it's more important to re-litigate the past, there may be many reasons that you don't want to support her.
    But if you believe we can all rise together, if you believe we've finally come to the point where we can put the awful legacy of the last eight years behind us and the seven years before that where we were practicing trickle-down economics with no regulation in Washington, which is what caused the crash, then you should vote for her. Because she's the only person who basically has good ideas, will tell you how she's going to pay for them, can be commander-in-chief, and is a proven change maker with Republicans and Democrats and Independents alike."

     

     

    How do you make a mistake like that? It can't be that he forgot it's 2016 and delusionally believed he was back in 2008, because "and the 7 years before that" would have to refer to his own presidency. And putting the 7 years before the 8 years is hopelessly mixed up, since GWB served a full 8 years, and the 7 must refer to the unfinished term that is Obama's. Bill is clearly talking about 2 presidential terms there, so it seems hard to figure out how he isn't lambasting Obama.

    Media Unfairly Decides to Treat Trump like All the Other Candidates

    by Sara Gonzalez

     

    Add Chuck Todd to the list of media personalities who are totally unfair to Donald Trump.

    “Meet the Press” has always been one of several Sunday morning programs where candidates or elected officials could appear live on the show to promote themselves or their positions, hence the name of the show. Trump, up until this point, has gotten away with being the only candidate allowed to phone in and participate in pre-recorded audio interviews instead of appearing on the show like everyone else.

     

    Chuck Todd recently told Jim Rutenberg of the New York Times that he has decided not to allow Donald Trump to call into “Meet the Press” any longer. He will be forced to appear live on camera if he wants to participate, like everyone else. So unfair.

     

     

    As Rutenberg points out in his piece titled “The Mutual Dependence of Trump and the News Media,” when you’re focusing on ratings instead of standards, it is easy to see why news organizations have been bending over backwards to accommodate Trump. In fact, he may have single-handedly saved CNN from extinction:

  6. Anti-AIPAC protest turns ugly and violent

    The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is holding its annual policy conference in Washington, D.C. There are 18,000 attendees.

    Today was a rally for Palestine, and the marchers (200-300 based on the videos posted online) marched to the AIPAC conference location where protesters heckled people trying to enter. There also were the usual Code Pink antics, such as trying hard to get arrested by blocking doors (so far this year, no arrests). The main Code Pink protest is Monday, and I’m sure they will try hard to get arrested for publicity, as they did last year.

    But there were far more aggressive and dangerous people in the crowd, as this video shows. (Read More)

    Language Warning on all videos

    only about 5 percent of Cubans can get online — one of the lowest Internet penetration rates in the world.

     

    I put in the NPR story, for those doubters about the Cuban Government's internet policy

     

     

    One can only hope that Gator can understand how that makes President Obama's post look silly.

     

    After his misinterpretation of the ESPN post and the Castro/Hitler comparison as Obama, who knows where his mind is wandering today. He'll just have to wait for further instructions

    For a bunch of "smart guys" here - why none of you do any research fails me - but when you already have it all figgered out....

     

    - Detroit overcharges for supply of water

    - Flint goes to Flint river to save money

    - Experts say you have to treat water

    - GOP City manager and GOP Governor ignore experts - decide your own motivations

    - Lead poising to kids

    - Congress modified the safe drinking water act https://www.epa.gov/sdwato give the states more power and oversight to meet the guidelines set by the EPA

    - Under this legislation (GOP pushed) - the EPA cannot "jump" in to rescue places like Flint - they have to defer to the states to get it done

    - MI GOP feeds EPA crap information

    - EPA can't intervene and fix problem

     

    I ask you - where is the problem?

     

    When we do our research we provide links to prove it.

     

    I see a laundry list of Baskin statements without any corroboration.

     

    there is the problem.

     

     

    There is plenty of blame to go around to all sides...............failure of government at all levels.

     

    This problem did not just happen in the past year as some here suggest..............and it sure as hell wasn't due to RACISM, as the media and dems were very quick to suggest at the beginning
