  1. Unlikely. They are simply working to discredit Trump any way they can. He's in for a rough ride for 4 years with media and Dem members of congress looking to pile on each and every day.
  2. Well, Obama doesn't want to release them, he just wants to transfer them so what's the big deal?
  3. Trump hasn't been sworn in, nothing specific is even on the table. Now is right time to take a close look at the bag of **** Obama is leaving for Trump to clean up or Hillary for that matter had she been elected.
  4. We'll never know the truth but there is little reason to believe Homeland Security or the CIA (especially Homeland Security) as Obama has used every government agency at his fingertips to further political agendas and rarely have we give given the truth about anything.
  5. The meeting had nothing to do with MMGW. Gore is unhappy that the Supreme Court stole the election from him and also about Russian hackers stealing the election from Hillary, hence the meeting. The reports that they met regarding the climate are fake news.
  6. George makes some sense of all this
  7. Well I hope a thorough investigation is done which includes their findings as to how easy it was to hack the DNC, Podesta, etc. Why is it that the same groups of people who hate our country and are weak on national security and foreign policy are also so weak on internet/data security?
  8. I don't see a winner among anyone mentioned in this post.
  9. She is the consummate politician. Arrogant, interested only in political wins, and not interested in solving anything. Incapable of solving real problems. As fake and incompetent as they come.
  10. I've watched that ad a few times. Can't find anything wrong.
  11. We need environmentally conscious people in the EPA for sure, but people of reason. Just a couple months ago our lawn at the office was dug up so that drainage for nearby construction could be connected. It was about a 50' x 50' area. Our property. Once done the construction co. sent a landscaper over to grade and seed the area. They also left 40' or more of a barrier on the original grass. This was a couple 20' sections of 12' in diameter round "bag" of ground up tires serving as a barrier. A barrier to what I don't know. After several weeks the new grass badly needed to be mowed. under this barrier the original grass was basically dead. I called the construction company and asked them to come by and pickup their long black bags as we wanted to cut the grass. The person told me the barriers needed to stay in place until the new grass was "established" per EPA regulation. I said it's way overdue to be cut. They said it had to be left in place until an inspector approved it being moved. I said bull ****, we're going to move it into the parking lot now so we can cut it today as our landscaper was on site and by the way leaving it there is killing the grass underneath. I told them to come and get it today or we might put it in the dumpster. Later that day someone picked it up. The grass underneath never did come back this year. This is just a tiny example of environmental idiocy. Dumb rules written and paid for by taxpayer dollars, there are probably 100's of thousands of such stupid regulations. Next week an inspector is coming here to test our sprinkler system backflow valve. It has to be done annually. He'll be here for less than 30 min and will give me a bill for $400+, part of which is a fee back to the municipality. His tools fit in a brief case sized enclosure. This is another EPA rule. So a stupid law is passed to test a part every year that never fails and the inspector is required to kick back some of the fee to the municipality. By the way if the valve failed, the sprinkler system alarm would be triggered due to a change in pressure.
  12. Democrats Nominated Hillary a horrible candidate and ultimately elected Trump with many staying home or voting for him. He is officially "your guy".
  13. Except that this is Mark Kelso.
  14. Yep because that is going to be the Republican plan. Repeal it and let whatever happens, happens.
  15. Right, because Obama, Pelosi and Reid got it absolutely right when they passed the ACA. Nobody could ever craft a better solution or improve what is in place.
  16. Hand the study over the the new admin and congress and let's see if they can put it to good use. Let's not forget that BO never wanted the entire job as President. His passion is for social and economic justice for minorities along with the destruction of the opposition party. The rest is just noise and a distraction to those ends. And while we're at it, how'd he do on those 2 priorities?
  17. Uh oh. This will make the left crazy. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/donald-trump-picks-gop-oil-industry-ally-scott-pruitt-lead-n693231
  18. The whole carrier thing is overblown. From what we know the state of Indiana provided incentives to induce Carrier to keep a bunch of jobs there. Happens all the time. We can debate the wisdom of states doing this and there are arguments on both sides. Trump hasn't been sworn in yet and hasn't made any federal government decisions. Conversely Bush/Obama forced banks to take Tarp funds, selective banks even when some of those banks didn't want them. Charged them interest, gave them no choice. Some of the banks didn't need the money. I don't recall the left being angry at that.
  19. Yes. It's one thing to think like the writer, it's another to actually write it and submit it for publication and another thing entirely that it was approved for publication. Maybe we're the dumbasses for reading it which increases traffic and ad revenue for the Time site.
  20. His point of view. Many men shirley agree.
  21. MSM = fictional artists.
  22. Hillary was a terrible candidate with probably the most baggage of any candidate that ever won a major party nomination. She had poor policy positions on most issues, was surrounded by evidence of dishonesty and corruption, had no meaningful accomplishments in elected office and is not likeable. Any number of the other Republican candidates would have mopped the floor with her IMO.
  23. You probably have to repeal the damn thing as the process of modifying 2000 pages of this cluster !@#$ and hoping it makes any sense is probably greater than starting over and including the few good aspects of the monstrosity.
  24. Correct, allegedly. You could argue the idea that Russian government had zero to do with it as the conspiring media and dem leaders were all heard pushing the russian hacker story within hours or less of each other which supports the DC Tom theory that the AP or some other "source" put that crap out there and they all just ran with it. A lazy convenient excuse.
