Dems Double Standard on FBI Director

I have to just catch myself from completely laughing hysterically every time I see a Democrat on TV complaining about the FBI Director.  The same man that just a few short months they were on the same TV praising for his impartiality and greatness. 

Now things are different?  Oh yes, he doesn't agree with them.  He isn't helping their cause. 

Just completely and totally amazes me. 

To be fair, the FBI Director was doomed no matter what.  He already had half the country wanting his head for not charging Hillary.  He also knew that if he didn't notify congress about what they had found he would be torched again for withholding information until after the election.  So for now he has the Republicans off his back and now the Democrats are jumping on.  However the good news for him is, that they have no credibility.  They have gone on the record of how great he is and how impartial he is.  So they have negated their own argument.

Gotta love politics.

How Secret Was the Emails Hillary Exposed?


Not only did she have them on an unsecure server, she allowed people without proper clearance to go through them after she was caught.

Axelrod Calls out Clinton Camp

 You know you got problems when even David Axelrod is calling you out and your a Democrat.

Clinton Wears Ear Piece to Help with Answers?

I have been reading about Clinton Wearing an Ear Piece to help her with answers. 

I guess when you tell so many lies, it is kind of hard to keep them all straight.  How would you like to be the person at the other end of that ear piece?  Hell No..

Hmmm So Building a Wall to Stop Immigrants is a Good Thing, Britain?

For all the heat that Donald Trump has taken about building a wall, it must have sounded like a good idea to Britain and France.  They have announced plans to build a wall to stop the Immigrant problem they have.

Liberal Heads must be exploding across the land today!!!!

Clinton falls Behind Trump in Latest CNN Poll

Say it can't be.  What, Trump is leading the Presidential Race!?

You mean the talking heads of the GOP and Talk Radio might be wrong, yet again.  They did say he would never be nominated.

Well the latest CNN/ORC Poll shows Trump now pulling ahead of Clinton in the 4 way race.  Can't forget about Gary Johnson and Jill Stein.  He now leads 45-43.  Just a month ago Clinton had an 8 point lead.

Could it finally be that people are seeing Clinton for who she really is?  Let's hope so and hope that Trump can stay on point.

Democrats Ones Who Had Circus at Benghazi Hearings

We kept hearing from Democrats that the GOP was staging a circus and that the Benghazi hearings were nothing but a ploy by the GOP.

Well guess what?  They were, only it was the Democrats and Clinton who were staging the Circus.

FOX News:

Newly released emails suggest a senior Hillary Clinton aide stage-managed her first hearing on the Benghazi terrorist attack by feeding specific topics Clinton wanted to address to Democratic Sen. Robert Menendez, who at the time was acting chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee.
"We wired it that Menendez would provide an opportunity to address two topics we needed to debunk (her actions/whereabouts on 9/11, and these email from Chris Stevens about moving locations,)" Clinton media gatekeeper Philippe Reines wrote to Chelsea Clinton the morning of the Jan. 23, 2013 hearing.  
Right out of the gate, the first hearing question from Menendez that day covered both topics referenced by Reines.

Menendez asked for Clinton’s “insights on the decision-making process regarding the location of the Mission.” The senator added, “can you also in your response, you touched upon it in your opening statement, but what actions were you and your staff taking the night of September 11 and into September 12?"

Trump Closing the Gap, Clinton Fading

I keep hearing repeatedly that Trump is the only Candidate the GOP could have put up that would lose to Clinton. 

I have been trying to figure out what kind of thinking the people making those statements has.  First of all, no other Candidate in the field for the GOP garnered even half the votes Trump did.  If Trump isn't going to beat Hillary, I am not sure how they thought anyone else would.  I am guessing it is just the sore loser mentality on their part.

However, Trump is a different type of Candidate.  It is almost impossible to go into this election with any sort of certainty on what the polls mean and who will win.  There simply is no data that is going to help you get a picture of it.  Trump doesn't fit into any of the previous situations.  If you remember right, when he first started out everyone of these people said that Trump had Zero chance of winning the nomination.  The argued it right down to the bitter end.  So for the same people to be saying he has zero chance of winning the General election doesn't really hold any relevance. 

Trump isn't your typical Republican.  Quite honestly I am not sure he is a Republican.  I know that makes the talking heads explode.  They don't believe he is a Republican either.  I don't think he is a Democrat either.  I think that he is probably more so an Independent.  You know what, Thank GOD!!!!  Truth be told the problem with America is both the Democrats and the Republicans fault.  They have all sold out to the party.  They don't ever really do much thinking for themselves anymore.  They do what their party tells them.  That is the problem.

I think this has created a problem with the polls.  People who are the Staunch Republicans won't ever admit that they are going to vote for Trump.  The fact that they will, well that will be their dirty little secret.  Face it, nobody who is even somewhat GOP will sit out this election and allow Hillary Clinton to win.  They just can't.  It is not who they are.  They will vote Trump, but they will never admit it.  Then you have the group of Democrats who will not be able to vote for Hillary.  She just doesn't stand for what they believe in and they are also fed up with the Democratic party and all the stuff that happened with Bernie Sanders.  They are in the same boat with the Staunch Republicans.  They are so angry with the establishment and can't vote for Hillary, but will never admit that they will vote Trump.  Some will and some won't vote at all.  Still a bonus for Trump. 

I think this election is going to be very close.  If I had to decide right now, I would say very close and maybe a very slight edge to Clinton.  However, I see a growing trend that Trump is surging and his antics have come down quite a bit.  I think that he is showing a different side.  I think you see that with almost every poll showing a dramatic close.  I think the first debate could really set this election off for either Candidate.  I think Trump could seal the deal with the first debate if he plays his cards right.


Scott Walker Reforms Saving Billions for Wisconsin Taxpayers

The reforms weren't popular with the Left.  As a matter of fact, thousands of protesters were in Madison to protest Act10 and our esteemed Democratic Senators had to run and hide out in Illinois to avoid the bill being voted on.  However the GOP Senate found a way around the Democrats ploy and the bill passed the Senate and Walker was able to sign the bill into law.  The Democrats and the Unions fought it out in court and lost every time. 

Now five years later the MacIver Institute is reporting that Act 10 has saved $5.24 Billion for Wisconsin Tax Payers.

Talk Radio Still Doesn't Get It

As I just got back from Vacation I had on Talk Radio yesterday listening to the Local Conservative Talking Heads talk about Trump.  How he appeared to be softening his approach on deporting 11 million Illegal Immigrants.  They talked about how he is flip flopping and will lose support from his most hardened supporters. 

Caller after caller said that they didn't think he would lose support.  Caller after caller said how they understood that it was probably an UN-achievable goal, but a starting point to negotiate a better Immigration plan.

The Host continued after every caller to complain that he is flip flopping and this will cost him support.

I have spent the last week on vacation talking to people across the country about the election.  I thought that after listening to the Talking Heads on Talk Radio and the Mainstream Media that no one like Trump and he is going to get cleaned up in the election.  I was surprised to hear tons of support for Trump.  They like that he isn't politically correct.  They like that he isn't a politician.  They realize he is going to say things that a politician wouldn't, but that he will make common sense changes to the way things are and not be so tied up in the politics that have stagnated our Government. 

These Talking Heads that are whining about how Trump is going to lose and that the GOP should never had made them the Nominee are the problem with the GOP in the first place.  They don't appear to really care what the American People think or the GOP Voters.  They think that a relative few in the party should decide for the Majority.  The odd thing is, they don't want a Democracy at all.  They want to Dictate to the Majority who and what the party should stand for. 

In the Primary Trump Garnered almost 13 Million Votes.  Cruz was the next closest at almost 5 Million Votes.  Yet these Talking Heads want to go against the Majority.  Unless they really think the GOP only has 8 million voters (the total of all other votes in the GOP Primary).  If that is the case they are in real trouble.

Voters decide.  That is how it is meant to be.  Unless you are the Democratic Party and then you can pick your nominee and forget the voters.  Ouch!

Does Clinton Believe Her Own BS?

Hillary Clinton again made the assertion that she has been truthful to the American People about her Email Scandal.

FOX News:

“And as the FBI said, everything that I’ve said publicly has been consistent and truthful with what I’ve told [the FBI],” Clinton said Wednesday in an interview with Brandon Rittiman of KUSA News.

Even though multiple Fact Checking outlets have rated this anywhere from "Pants on Fire" to "Outright Lie".

She obviously is just outright lying or delusional.   Either way, how can you call Trump unfit to be President?  When pressed that the FBI Director in fact said that her comments were not truthful, Clinton Responded.

FOX News:

“That's not what I heard Director Comey say … Director Comey said that my answers were truthful and what I've said is consistent with what I have told the American people, that there were decisions discussed and made to classify retroactively certain of the emails,” she said.

I am not sure how her backers really think that she can get away with this.  All though she has gotten away with more things than anyone else.  Maybe the American People really are as Stupid as she thinks they are.

Donald Trump Crazy or Just Normal?

I watch as the news media and people rip on Donald Trump for things he says and does.  I laugh when I hear them all say, "you just don't do that" or "You have to act more like Obama or Bush". 

They are comparing Donald Trump to seasoned, life long Politicians.  People that have spent many many years being handled by people who have been in the Political game for years.  Donald Trump is not a life long Politician.  He has spent his life working in the real world.  Everything is Politically Correct.  If someone attacks you, you attack back.  If someone is feeding you a line of BS, then you call them on it.  If someone is crooked, then you tell them that they are crooked. 

I get so tired hearing Politicians refer to other Politicians as "My Fried" when we all know damn well they can't stand each other.  Let's get back to brutal honesty.  Tell it like it is and don't sugar coat things.

Did I think that Donald Trump was wrong for attacking the Father of a Soldier killed?  I didn't think it was very appropriate.  I think we owes those families a great deal of respect and thanks for their sacrifices.  I also don't think that the Father was appropriate in his comments about Donald Trump.  Donald Trump had nothing to do with their son.  Not in any way.  I think that the Father was also inappropriately using his son's death as Political tool and found that to be very inappropriate.

Donald Trump isn't always going to say the right things.  He isn't always going to be the everything is great and cheery guy.  I just want him to tell me how it is without all the candy coating.  I want him to be honest with me and be willing to do what it takes to get the job done, not get re-elected.  Hopefully along the way he learns how to handle some things better.

Which Obama do You Believe? Which Candidate?

President Obama said:

"Trump is unfit to Be President"  - If you believe what he says then lets look at what else he has said.

"Hillary will say anything to get elected"

Obama said: "The former president, who I think all of us have a lot of regard for, has taken his advocacy on behalf of his wife to a level that I think is pretty troubling. He continues to make statements that are not supported by the facts ... This has become a habit, and one of the things that we're going to have to do is to directly confront Bill Clinton when he's making statements that are not factually accurate."

 You also think that it was the GOP that was racist against Blacks and Obama?  Well think again.

Huffington Post:

Throughout the 2008 election season, racist and bigoted smears about Barack Obama circulated online, and bubbled up into mainstream conversation about the campaign in the traditional news media. Two of the most prominent lies about Obama, which persist to this day, were that he is secretly a Muslim (playing on fear-mongering and bigotry about Islam), and that he was not really born in America. Both of these ideas paint Obama as “other” and outside the mainstream, drawing their potency from fears about Black people gaining power. People generally associate these memes with the right wing. But the truth is that for the entire Democratic primary, not only did Hillary Clinton’s campaign do nothing to push back against the racist fear-mongering about Obama, it actually fed this atmosphere and helped it grow. It was a part of their strategy from early in the campaign.
 The Week.com

DeRay McKesson, one of the movement's leaders, wrote on Twitter that the post was "solid." But he also noted that she had two days to work on it, and did not attend the liberal forum Netroots Nation, unlike her challengers Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley, who flailed in front of activists from Black Lives Matter.
McKesson is right to be suspicious. Hillary Clinton's record on race is not great. If she wishes to earn some trust on issues of racial justice, a good place to start would be with the distinctly racist undertones of her 2008 campaign against Barack Obama.
As the first primaries got underway in 2008, and Obama began to slowly pull ahead, the Clinton camp resorted to increasingly blatant race- and Muslim-baiting. It started in February, when Louis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam, endorsed Obama in a sermon. In a debate a couple days later, moderator Tim Russert repeatedly pressed Obama on the issue, who responded with repeated reassurances that he did not ask for the endorsement, did not accept it, and in fact was not a deranged anti-Semite. That wasn't enough for Clinton, who demanded that Obama "denounce" Farrakhan, which he did.
About the same time, a picture of Obama in traditional Somali garb (from an official trip) then appeared on the Drudge Report, and Matt Drudge claimed he got it from the Clinton campaign. After stonewalling on the origin question, the campaign later claimed it had nothing to do with it. A Clinton flack then went on MSNBC and argued that Obama should not be ashamed to appear in "his native clothing, in the clothing of his country."
 Later, a media firestorm blew up when it was discovered that Obama's Chicago pastor Jeremiah Wright once delivered a sermon containing the words "God damn America." In response, Obama gave a deft, nuanced speech on racial issues, but Clinton kept the issue alive by insisting she would have long ago denounced the man.

We could go on for days about how Sleazy Politicians are.  How they say and do anything to get elected.  Clinton would like everyone to think she is this support the Black Lives movement, Support Black people, Support Fluorescent Green People if that is what it takes to get her the power.

Politics is dirty and Politicians are dirtier.

Russ Feingold Thinks we Forgot

Russ Feingold must think that we have all forgotten about his time in the Senate.

He was a big part of the problem in the Senate for many many years and that is why the people of Wisconsin booted him out.  Now he is out there campaigning like he is this new Candidate that will show us all how it is done.  We have seen how you get it done.  You fall right in line with the party and don't do what is right for America or Wisconsin.

I hope that the Citizens of Wisconsin don't fall for Russ and his sleaze.  Don't let him get back in there.

Obama Administration Paid Ransom to Iran?

I have to admit that when I think that the Obama Administration can't surprise me anymore with how it operates they always find a way to prove me wrong.

Now news is coming out that just as the Iranian Government had decided to release Americans that they had detained for quite some time, the Obama Administration was paying them $400 Million.  If you listen to the Obama Administration, it is all just coincidence.  Yeah Right.

Clinton Continues Her Lie to the American People

Hillary Clinton was on FOX News Sunday and again tried to twist the truth to make her lie stand up to public scrutiny.

She claimed that the FBI Director even confirmed that she had not lied.  Which is a Politicians way of twisting what he said to make her story correct.

The FBI Director did say that she did not lie to them.  She did not lie to the FBI.  However he was asked several questions that showed that Clinton had lied to the American People and to Congress.  When asked about several of her comments to the American People and to Congress the FBI Director answered that those comments were "not true".  Clinton has claimed repeatedly to the American People and Congress that she never sent or received anything marked classified on her private server.  The FBI Director answered that "there was classified material emailed".  Clinton also claimed that she only used the one device.  The FBI Director answered the "she used multiple devices".  Clinton said that she turned over all work-related emails, however again the FBI Director said "No, we found work-related emails, thousands that were not returned". 

Clinton must really think that the American Public is stupid.  Even though she has been caught red handed and been able to get the FBI and the Justice Department to look the other way, lets hope the American People aren't going to fall for her BS!

DNC Last Day and More False Information

MSN.com

PHILADELPHIA — On the night Hillary Clinton accepted her party’s nomination for president, Clinton and other Democrats played loose with some facts:
  • Clinton misrepresented Donald Trump’s “I alone can fix it” line, suggesting he said he could fix everything by himself. Trump was referring to a “rigged” system, and went on to talk about working with others.
  • Clinton said that “we’re going to pay for every single one” of the initiatives she has proposed. We can’t predict the future, but a nonpartisan analysis found her proposals would add to the national debt.
  • Clinton said “90 percent” of income gains “have gone to the top 1 percent.” But that is an outdated figure. It’s now 52 percent.
  • Clinton said 15 million private-sector jobs have been created since President Obama took office. The actual number is 10.5 million, and it’s less — 10.1 million — when accounting for the loss of 460,000 public jobs.
  • Clinton rejected Trump’s border security proposal, saying, “We will not build a wall.” As a senator, however, Clinton voted for and supported legislation to add more fencing along the southern border.
  • House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi cited the “91 Americans who are killed by gun violence each day,” urging Congress to “keep guns out of the hands of criminals and terrorists.” However, nearly 58 of those daily gun deaths are suicides — not criminal homicides.
  • Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney twisted Pay Pal co-founder Peter Thiel’s words, claiming Thiel at the GOP convention had called “equality” a “distraction.” Thiel was talking about the debate over bathroom access, not equality in general.
  • Rep. Joaquin Castro said Trump “defended” World War II internment camps. Trump cited the camps as a legal precedent for his proposal to ban all Muslim travel to the U.S. But he stopped short of defending internment camps.

Democrats Fight Voter ID - Need ID for Delegates?

The Democrats have been fighting Voter ID.  Saying it is discriminatory and violates Civil Rights.

Well look at the sign at their very own Convention!  Are They Discriminatory and violating Civil Rights!

Hillary and Tim Kaine? Hmmmm


Another Day at the DNC and More False Facts

MSN again Fact Checked the Speakers from last nights convention and made a list of things that weren't quite how the speakers said they were.

MSN.com

PHILADELPHIA — The president headlined the night’s speeches, and a few of his boasts of his record headline our fact-checking report:
  • President Barack Obama claimed that under his administration, “we finally began to wean ourselves off foreign oil,” but dependency on imported oil had begun to drop years before he took office.
  • The president repeated a frequent boast that the U.S. “doubled our production of clean energy” during his tenure. Monthly renewable energy production has gone up 40 percent.
  • Obama said deficits have “come down” under his administration. That’s true, but they are expected to rise again soon under his proposed budget.
  • Vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine falsely referred to economist Mark Zandi as “John McCain’s chief economic adviser during the ’08 race,” in touting an estimate of job loss under Donald Trump’s proposals. In fact, Zandi is a Democrat.
  • Rev. Jesse Jackson wrongly said “we have not lost a single job, a single month” since Obama became president, and he was also off in saying the U.S. trades “more with Mexico than we do with China.”
  • Former Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta falsely claimed that Trump “says he gets his foreign policy experience from … running the Miss Universe pageant.” Trump didn’t say that was his foreign policy experience.
  • Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid claimed that the GOP ticket wanted to “gamble” Social Security “in the stock market.” But Trump’s campaign has called for making no changes to Social Security.
  • Kaine claimed that Trump said he “wants to abandon” our NATO allies. Trump has said that he doesn’t want the U.S. to leave NATO, but has suggested he would not automatically defend NATO allies that do not pay their share of defense costs.

Obamacare Collapse Happening Now

The Obama and the DNC may have more troubled waters ahead as this election kicks into high gear.

Not only do they have a Candidate that is in trouble legally, morally and ethically, they have the promised fallout of yet to be released emails about the Clinton Foundation.  They also have the complete collapse of Obamacare.

The last remaining Obamacare Exchanges are on the verge of complete collapse. 

Everyone knew that Obamacare was not going to work.  Nobody!  Yet the Democrats decided that they would ignore everyone and pass it anyway.  They did it completely on a party line vote.

Now Billions of Dollars later and we have a system that has only made insurance more expensive and is on the verge of total collapse.  It will cost more and more and more money from us taxpayers to keep it going.  Not only will they have to raise our taxes to keep it going, it is going to cost us more for insurance.  So we are going to be paying twice.  Nice system they have!!!  Leave it to Politicians and no brain supporters to think this was a good idea.

Another Day at the DNC and More Mis-Information

MSN again Fact Checked the information being put forth at the DNC and here is what they said:

MSN.com

PHILADELPHIA — On a night headlined by President Bill Clinton’s admiration for his wife — the now official Democratic nominee — there was a less-than-glowing treatment of some facts.
  • Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean claimed that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s “whole” health care plan was to replace the Affordable Care Act with “quote, ‘Something so much better.'” In fact, Trump has released a seven-point health care plan
  • Bill Clinton said that the United States’ approval rating soared 20 percentage points during the time that Hillary Clinton was secretary of state. But analyses of the U.S.’s global ratings don’t support such a claim.
  • Former Attorney General Eric Holder said “1 in 3 black men will be incarcerated in their lifetimes,” an outdated projection based on the incarceration rate for black males as of 2001. That rate has declined since then.
  • Bill Clinton said that Arkansas schools went from “worst” when he started as governor to one of two “most improved,” and he gave Hillary Clinton much of the credit. The record is mixed: An expert did say in 1992 that the state had made progress, but the New York Times reported then that the state was “still near the bottom in most national ratings.”
  • Sen. Barbara Boxer repeated a convention talking point, claiming that Trump said that “wages are too high.” He was talking about a $15 minimum wage being too high.
  • Dean said that GOP vice presidential candidate Mike Pence “voted to end Medicare as we know it.” Pence did vote for a budget plan that called for a major change to Medicare, but it would have retained a health insurance system for seniors.

Bernie Sanders Statement about Hillary/Supreme Court Very Scary

Sen. Bernie Sanders said last night during his speech that if Hillary Wins she will put up Supreme Court Justices that will overturn Citizens United.

This would be a very dangerous thing for any Supreme Court to do.  It has always been the practice of the Court to abide by the decisions of the previous Supreme Court.  If you set a precedent of overturning those decisions the Country will be sent into Chaos.

Sure the Democrats might think it is a good idea as may many citizens, however you better be thinking of the big picture before you support this.

Why do you think Roe v Wade has been the law of the land for so long?  The court has been Conservative for quite some time and that decision has never been overturned.  Actually the court has used that decision to uphold attempts by conservatives to clamp down on abortion rights.  The exact same can be said for Gay Rights.  If the court sets precedent by overturning a previous decision then that opens the door for every court going forward.  Gay Marriage can be legal today and the next time the court turns over it is illegal, Abortion is legal today, but the court changes and it is illegal.  Our laws would be chaos and ever changing based on the makeup of the court.

This would be a very bad precedent for them to set.  Lets hope the short sighted politicians don't get their way.

Bernie Sanders and the Dems Got their Facts Wrong

I love watching these Conventions.  I love to hear the rhetoric and the false information that the speakers give out.  MSN.com has some Fact Checking on last nights DNC.

MSN.com
  • Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey said Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump “would cut taxes for the richest Americans at the expense of the middle class.” But all income levels would get some tax relief under Trump’s plan.
  • Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy wrongly claimed that Mike Pence, the GOP vice presidential nominee, “signed a law that would have forced women to hold funerals for fetuses.” The law said aborted or miscarried fetuses “must be cremated or interred” by the hospital or abortion facility.
  • Sen. Bernie Sanders said Hillary Clinton “will guarantee” free tuition at public colleges or universities for families with annual incomes of $125,000 or less. But free tuition is not guaranteed. States must put up matching funds for the students to receive free tuition.
  • Sens. Casey and Kirsten Gillibrand both claimed that Trump had said that wages are “too high.” Trump was specifically talking about a $15 minimum wage when he made that comment, not wages overall.
  • Sanders said the “top one-tenth of 1 percent now owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent,” a statistic that has been questioned by economists at the Federal Reserve Board.
  • Sanders also said the “top 1 percent in recent years has earned 85 percent of all new income,” but economists whose work Sanders has cited put the figure at 52 percent for 1993 to 2015.
  • Rep. Joe Kennedy III said Americans’ wages “have not budged in 40 years,” and Sen. Elizabeth Warren said wages were “flat.” Wages plunged in the 1970s and 1980s, and more recently have showed strong growth.

American People are Fed Up with Politics

I think the Political Revolution that you see going on in this Country is amazing.  The sad thing is that some people just don't seem to get it.

The RNC just had their Convention and the longtime leaders and talking heads of the party were finally put in their place by the smarter leaders coming out and putting their foot down.  For months at the beginning of the Primary Season everyone laughed at Trump.  With names like Bush, Kasich, Rubio, Carson, Christie, Fiorina, Santorum, Paul, Huckabee, Walker, Graham, Jindal, Perry and Cruz.  Walker, Christie, Bush, Rubio and Kasich were the Republican Big Hitters.  Cruz had caused so many problems in the party they weren't supporting him.  Trump, well, ha ha ha, what is he doing running.  They didn't understand that the Country is fed up with the system, fed up with the old beliefs and fed up with them telling us who needs to lead the Country.  Quickly it became clear that the American People would have a say in this election.  Trump started winning as did Cruz.  The old face of the party was changing.  They even through their support behind Cruz figuring he was better than Trump.  The American People again said No.  Trump won decisively in the Primary.  Yet the Good ol boys weren't done.  They wanted a contested convention.  They bashed the Nominee and pushed for the Party to over rule the American People.  Trump doesn't have our values they said.  Trump isn't against the LGBTQ community.  Trump isn't against Abortion.  Trump isn't us.  They were right of course, and that is why he won.  The American People agree with Trump.  The smart Republican Leadership have recognized this.  Paul Ryan, Newt Gingrich, Chris Christie, Ben Carson, Allen West, Scott Walker, Reince Priebus and many others have stepped in and said support the Nominee.  No contested Convention.  There have been bumps in the road, but they seem to get it and the GOP will be stronger because of it.

The DNC on the other hand has yet to get it.  They saw Hillary Clinton become the choice of the establishment.  They were ready to hand her the Nomination without any Primaries.  They scoffed that someone like Bernie Sanders was going to challenge her.  Not only did Bernie Challenge her, but he showed the glaring issues within the Democratic Nominating system.  How the system basically handed the nomination to Hillary before the voting ever started.  States that Bernie won gave more delegates to Clinton.  Super Delegates that could vote for whomever already pledged to Clinton.  Emails leaked that show the National Committee was backing Clinton and going against Sanders.  There has been multiple reports of vote rigging and votes not being counted.  The Establishment hasn't gotten it yet.  They still think they no better than the American Voters what is best for them. 

This Revolution is the best thing that can happen for the Country.  Lets hope that it continues through the November Elections and we start seeing real change in the Political Landscape on Both Sides and in Washington.


Still Believe the DNC Primary Wasn't Rigged?

With the big release of emails by Wikileaks, I think it clearly shows a pattern by the DNC and the Chair of the party to work behind the scenes to make Hillary Clinton the Nominee.

The emails clearly show the attempt to damage Bernie Sanders while building up Hillary Clinton.

Now let's see how this all plays out at the Convention and come November.  For all the stuff I read about the GOP and it's mess, I have to say that the DNC is a much bigger mess.  Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump both were 100% correct when they called the system rigged.

Message for Ted Cruz, Bush and Kasich

You have damaged your reputation in the Party.  You have turned out to be the same lying and say whatever it takes Politicians that the American People loath.

You took a pledge early on in the Primary process to endorse and support whomever became the nominee for the GOP.  You pushed for Trump to do the same.  You all signed it and agreed to it.  Now some of you won't even show up at the party's convention and others refuse to support the Nominee.  You have went back on your word.

You are acting like spoiled kids and this is what is wrong with the GOP.  Who cares what the American People want, you think you know better.  You think you need to tell us what we need. 

For the record, I voted for Ted Cruz in the Primary and after seeing his actions last night I am glad that he didn't win the nomination.  I am glad that I found out the type of man he is.

Sen. Lena Taylor Smokes Pot? That explains a lot

So a former aide to Sen. Lena Taylor is releasing letters from her office that show that show that an Insurance Company would not cover the Senator because of her use of Marijuana.

I always knew she was on something.

Democrats Have Lost their Mind

I have been listening to all the noise going on about Trump's Wife supposedly plagiarizing a speech that Obama's wife gave.

There are several things that have struck me about all of this flap.

First and foremost was, "who really cares?!"  With everything that is involved with both of these Presidential Candidates, this is really something that makes headlines and causes an uproar?  With all the crooked stuff that Hillary Clinton has done, her supporters are casting stones over some sentences in a speech? By the spouse of a candidate?

Second, almost every sentence that they say was plagiarized, I have heard hundreds if not thousands of times in my life by my parents, other speakers, etc.  I would contest that Michellle Obama plagiarized from my parents.  On more than one occasion I can recall them telling me word for word what she said.  Seriously folks this is crazy.

Third, Obama himself has copied stuff from other peoples speeches as has countless other Politicians and Speakers.  Who really cares?  What difference does it really make? 

I can not believe how big of a deal that the Democrats and the Media has made out of this.  With all the other issues going on in the world today, and this takes up time of a Presidential Candidate and the media?  It is no wonder we can't solve real issues.

Will Bernie Supporters Fold their Values to Hillary?

For months Bernie Supporters have been ripping Hillary Clinton and her rigged system to the Nomination of the Democratic Party.

Now it is time to see if they were really serious or if they are just like all the other lambs out there and will now just fall in line and vote for her.  You can't have it both ways.  You can't seriously fight for change in the party and then when the establishment slaps you down, give up and fall in line.  If you truly support change then you have to be prepared to make that happen.

I think that no matter what you think of Donal Trump, you have to be amazed at what is happening in the Republican Party.  I think as a whole the American Public is sick and tired of the establishment and their failures.  Both Parties have seen their chosen nominees meet with a hard primary season and see the American Public respond.  The Democrats saw Bernie Sanders take Hillary to the brink and if not for the rigged system she would have lost out.  The American people fought the establishment and took down everything the Republicans through at them to send Donald Trump in as the nominee. 

I give it to the Republican Leadership for recognizing that the people have spoke and have begun supporting the nominee.  Yes you have people like Kasic, the Bush Family and several others who aren't supporting him, but most of them get it.  Paul Ryan, Scott Walker, Ted Cruz and many others have in one way or another started backing him and helping him.  They understand that no matter what they may think, the American People are the ones that put him where he is. 

Unfortunately on the Democratic side the establishment has decided that they know better than the American People and have pushed Hillary Clinton instead of listening to the American people and their endorsement of Bernie Sanders. 

So the question will be, will the Bernie voters fall in line with the Democratic rigged establishment and support Hillary or fight against it?  Will they support her winning the Presidency like their party leaders want or will they boycott the party and force change?

Obama Uses Police Memorial to Push Politics

As I watched the Police Memorial in Dallas yesterday I was Extremely impressed with the Speeches by the Senator, Mayor, Chief of Police and President Bush.  They really touched on things that you talk about when you are at a Memorial.  They celebrated the lives of the Officers, Supported their families and talked about healing.

Then President Obama took to the Microphone.  I was impressed early on in the speech how he talked about the Officers and their families.  Then he decided to take a spin and turn it into a Political Stump speech.  He started talking about Black Lives Matter, Race and the shootings by Police officers.

I sat and watched in horror as the Police Officers and Families of the fallen sat visibly uncomfortable in the audience.  They stopped clapping and you could see them upset about the speech.

I have never been a big Obama Supporter obviously, but this just was absurd.  He was not a leader and he used this memorial to push his agenda.  It was sad and I felt for the families.  George Bush and the Police Chief showed more leadership and care for the Country than Obama did with much shorter speeches.  They did not pick sides, but talked of  healing and coming together.

From a Former Listener of Talk Radio

I listened for many years to talk radio.  It was my fix for getting my political news and really enjoyed. 

Now I am a recovering listener.  I now don't turn it on and have transitioned to enjoying listening to music on my drive times. 

Over the past year I have gotten so fed up with the local talk radio that I can't stomach the craziness that it has become.  It seems that the opinions of the host is that they know better than anyone and everyone is stupid and wrong for having different beliefs and thought patterns than them.  I have been closely watching the GOP to see how they handle this convention and election.  I have always been a strong Republican and have found myself for the first time answering the question of party as Independent.  The GOP is fracturing and when people can't listen to both sides and work together, then I am not sure this party represents me anymore. 

So for now I am enjoying listening to great music on other stations and watching to see if the GOP is going to work together or fall apart.

For the Record, Democrats have just as big a mess as the GOP has going on.

The Problem with Black Lives Matter

There is a fundamental problem with the Black Lives Matter movement.  That problem stems from the name itself. 

All lives matter!  By making the movement about one race is in itself racist.  It seems to me that the movement is about what is perceived as Law Enforcements actions against people.  Does it really matter if it is against a black person, white person or anybody else?  If you only care about one race, then that in itself is racist.

The President should key in on this himself.  He wants to be a leader, but is failing miserably. 

Until you make things all inclusive then you will continue to have racism.  You can't have things that include one race and not another and then complain about racism.  It just doesn't work that way. 

Until we as a society quit having these organizations and events that are designed for one race and not inclusive of everyone, we will never take down the wall of racism.

Hillary Clinton Will not be Prosecuted over Emails

Clinton again will skate free of wrongdoing.  The FBI Director James Comey has said that they will not recommend charges for what Clinton did.  He argued that based on the evidence "no reasonable prosecutor" would even consider bringing a case.

However just just last year the U.S. Government did exactly that.  A case very similar when a Naval Reservist had classified material on Personal Devices and the FBI found no evidence that he intended any harm with the material he was prosecuted.  He was fined, put on probation and stripped of his security clearance forever.

I guess that wouldn't be good if you are trying to become the President.

This is exactly what is wrong with America today.  The Politicians want to make it about Rich vs Poor, or Black vs White.  It really isn't about that.  It is about Politicians who get away with anything and everything and none of the rules and laws that we must follow apply to them.

Cruz Wins Wisconsin, Bernie Sanders is Big Story

Ted Cruz may have won the Republican Primary in Wisconsin, but he still failed to even get 50% of the Republican vote.  The Republican establishment and it's so called talking heads could really be setting up the end of the Republican Party.  With the "Never Trump" crowd out there and hoping for a contested Convention this very well could be a recipe for disaster for the GOP.  If Trump goes into the Convention with the Delegate lead and they choose to nominate someone else, they very well could lose all those votes and hand the General Election to the Democrats.  Trump could also run as an independent and that would also spell disaster for the GOP.  He would have every right and I think many would support it.  Also if Cruz goes in with the delegate lead you could also see a scenario where they still don't nominate him either.  The GOP is really in a lot of trouble here.

The bigger news is the win by Bernie Sanders.  Sanders not only won, he trounced Clinton 56% to 43%.  The same thing could apply to the Democrats if Sanders continues to win states and Clinton becomes the Nominee.  Will all of these Sanders supporters turn on a dime and support Clinton?

Election Time in Wisconsin

I love Politics.  I mean I really love them.  I get excited every year around election time.  However this year, I have been so frustrated.

I am so sick of listening to so called talking heads for the "Conservative Movement" telling everyone who they should and shouldn't vote for.  I am not a supporter of any particular candidate, but I most certainly won't rip a fellow Conservative for voting for someone other than the candidate I like.  I think all these people are doing is alienating those voters and making it much harder for the GOP to win in November. 

I have tuned out these talking heads after listening to them for 10 years, I am so turned off by their bias and the way they are talking down to people.  It is ridiculous and what is wrong with the GOP today.  Let the voters decide who the candidate should be and then support them.  I laugh at the people who say I will never support your candidate if they win the nomination.  Well, what do you think the response from the other side will be?  Yep, they won't support your candidate either.  So now the party is completely split and the GOP won't win.

Tomorrow will be interesting.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Again Prints Lies to Help Candidates

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is one of the worst papers in the country.  It really isn't a newspaper as much as it is a tabloid.

Over the last several years it has been pointed out on numerous occasions about the paper printing false stories and outright lies just to smear a political candidate in favor of someone they support.  They were all in for the John Doe Probes and apparently didn't learn their lesson.

Now they have come out to smear Justice Bradley.  Even her Ex-Husband has come out to tell everyone the story was false and a lie.  He even said that he told them it wasn't true before they printed it.

It is so sad that today it is almost impossible for people to know the truth about anything.  Newspapers like the Journal Sentinel will make up stories or tell you only one side of things because they have a horse in the race.  They won't tell you anything bad about "Their Guy".  The media isn't really about reporting the news anymore.  They are more of machines to be used by one party or candidate against the other.

It is sad.

The Republican Party is in Trouble and It isn't Trump

The Republican Party is in a world of trouble, and it isn't Donald Trump who is the problem.

The Problem is that the Republican Party doesn't want the American People to be the ones to decide the Nominee for the party.  The talking heads want to tell us who it should be.  I have been a supporter of the Republicans.  Now I am just up in arms at the way these people are acting.  I am not sure yet who I support.

It appears that it is down to a two man race with Trump and Cruz.  The real problem is, the Republican establishment and their talking heads don't really like either one of these guys.  It wasn't long ago that they were ripping Cruz much as they are doing with Trump now.  

The voters are repeatedly telling you in the primary elections that both of these guys are resonating with them.  Now you are seeing the actions of protesters at these rallies and we are blaming the candidates for it.  How about people look in the mirrors?  People who are the voice of Conservatives on the radio and TV are blasting Trump and comparing him to Hitler.  They are pushing the anybody but Trump movement.  Then wonder why things like this are happening.  When there were protests in Madison over Act 10 these same people didn't blame Scott Walker or Fitzgerald, it was the Protesters who crossed the line.  Does Trump say some dumb stuff, yep.  Is he a polished Politician who speaks politically correct, nope.  I think that is his draw.  That's why people like him.  They are tired of all that.  Hell even the so called voices of Conservatives have said they are tired of it too.  Yet when it isn't your guy doing it, then it is wrong?

Not long ago these same people were out ripping Ted Cruz and how we can not let him get the nomination because he is way to extreme.  Now that someone has knocked him down, they don't want that person either.  They are even going so far as to say that we have to split the votes up so we can pick whoever they want at the convention and screw the actual voters.  Then they wonder why the Republican Party is a mess?  If Donald Trump or Ted Cruz doesn't win the nomination I think you can say goodbye to the GOP.

The problem with the Republican Party right now is the Leadership and Establishment of the party.  It has to change and better change quickly.

If you want to see what is wrong in politics and America today all you have to do is watch what is happening with the Republican Party today.

Chris Larson or Chris Abele?

The County Exec looks to be open at this point.  Chris Abele has outspent his opponent by 2-1 and still lost in the Primary by a slim margin. 

Why is it so close between two Democrats?

Chris Abele has been spending a ton of money trying to show all of the great things that he has done for Milwaukee County.  How he has saved the Milwaukee Bucks, Helped Single Fathers, Improved about everything in the County. 

Chris Larson hasn't had to spend a whole lot of money to get his point across.  The nightly news stories do it all for him.  He then just has to pound the point home in speeches.  Abele's personal vendetta against Sheriff Clark has proven an obstacle Abele hasn't been able to answer.  Crime is skyrocketing in the County and Abele keeps taking money away from the Sheriff.  He claims he is making law enforcement better.  He tried to take away law enforcement duties of the Airport from the Sheriff, taking away manpower, taking away funding.  By the way did you see the big crime spree at the Airport Recently?  How about the disaster at the Mitchell Domes?  How about the concrete falling off the Milwaukee County Courthouse? 

Larson doesn't need to spend money to show the unaddressed problems in Milwaukee County.  The News does it for him.  Abele decided to be an opponent of the Sheriff instead of working with him to better the County.  Now he has real problems and no real help. 

Russ Feingold Doesn't Remember Trying to Stop a Supreme Court Nominee

It just totally amazes me how politicians from both parties forget so quickly how they treated the other side when they had the power.  Now it appears that the Democrats forgot all about how they treated then President Bush when he had a Nominee to the Supreme Court.



Now conveniently President Obama himself says that he regrets trying to hold up Bush's nominee when he was a Senator.  Russ Feingold even seems to forget.

Right Wisconsin:
Feingold said it’s “irresponsible not to consider” a nomination to the Supreme Court by President Barack Obama. He also said to Gousha about considering Supreme Court nominees when he was a senator, “In all cases, we ended up in an expeditious manner, taking up full consideration of them.”

I have said it many times, be careful how you act and do things when you have the power, because it will come back and haunt you when you don't.   If it is OK for you to act one way when you have power, then you better be ready to suck it up when you don't and the other side does the exact same thing back to you.

The Democrats are all up in arms now that there is an opening on the Supreme Court and Republicans have the power to stop any nomination by President Obama.  They just can't believe that anyone would attempt to do that.  How wrong it is.  How un-American it is.  How downright spiteful it is.  Yeah, forget that we did it.  Forget that we were wrong, forget how un-American we were, forget how spiteful we were.  Now it matters.

Right Wisconsin:

Of course, in 2007 Feingold didn’t have any issue with Congress sitting on Bush’s appointments until after the president left office. As the Weekly Standard points out, “In late 2007, the Harry Reid-led Senate had a backlog of more than 200 appointments that it had failed to act on, including dozens of judges. In order to prevent Bush from filling any of those slots with recess appointments, Reid started holding 30 second ‘pro-forma’ sessions over the holidays so the Senate would technically be in session and the president would be constitutionally prohibited from making recess appointments.”
Feingold issued not one word of protest at the time about how Democratic senators were not doing their jobs “on behalf of the American people.” It wasn’t even the election year yet and Feingold did not talk about the sacred duty of the Senate to consider the president’s nominations or the importance of not waiting two years to fill these vacancies.

It sure would be nice to see real adults in Washington who care more about US, The American People than their party of choice.

Wisconsin local Elections Interesting Results

Milwaukee County Executive Chris Abele looked like he was going to cruise to re-election this year.  To be honest I even thought he would.  I have only seen his ads on TV and on the Radio.  They have made me laugh at some of the stuff that he is taking credit for, but still, it appeared he was the only one running a campaign.  However after yesterday's primary, he has some serious reasons to worry.

Milwaukee County Executive100% reporting
Chris Larson45%48,258
Chris Abele (inc)44%47,550
Steve Hogan6%6,541
Joseph Thomas Klein4%4,685



Chris Larson was the biggest vote winner for the election.  This will now be an interesting election to watch and Chris Abele has to be wondering what happened.

The Mayoral Race also looks like it might actually be a real race.  I think most people thought that Tom Barrett was going to cruise to re-election.  Most people couldn't understand why he was getting an easy path to re-election, but it appeared he was.  The voters may have sent a signal yesterday that it isn't going to be as easy as we all thought.  Yes he won the primary, but he failed to garner 50% and if Bob Donovan can convert some of the other competitors supporters, Barrett will be in trouble.

Cam Newton Not Just a Sore Loser

I have to tell you, I watched the Super Bowl.  I really am not a fan of either team.  However as we got closer to the game I really started getting behind the Denver Broncos.  I had watched all the Highlights of the antics of one Cam Newton.  His celebrations of getting first downs, his antics every time he scored.  I thought to myself, someone needs to show him how it is really done.  With Class!!!!

It was the improbable.  The Broncos were underdogs.  Cam Newton's Panthers were the best offense in the NFL.  He was MVP!!!!

Cam Newton, meet the Denver Broncos.  They not only got in his face all game, they made him make mistake after mistake after mistake.  He fumbled to give the Broncos a Touch Down on Defense.  He later fumbled and didn't even try to recover it, giving the Bronco's a short field to another Touch Down.  His team not only loss the game, he was manhandled. 

Then to show that he may have had a great year with the Panthers, he not an MVP.  He lost and showed no class along the way. He should look at the Peyton Mannings, Tom Bradys, Russel Wilsons.  All Super Bowl losers and still showed class.

Cam Newton, Welcome to the NFL.

What is up with Gateway Middle School in Killeen, TX

What is going on with our schools?  A young girl has an asthma attack in class and the Teacher responds by sending an email to the school nurse?

What in the hell are they thinking.  We have a medical emergency in the class room that could be a matter of life and death, the emergency procedure is to send an email and await a response? 

If you think that is the worst part of what this school did, you would sadly be mistaking.

Instead of waiting on the nurse to respond to the email, 15 year old Anthony Ruelas took matters into his own, obviously much more mature than the teacher, hands and picked up the girl and carried her to the nurses office to get help.  The Teacher said he disobeyed her and the boy was suspended.

You can't make this stuff up.  The school actually suspended the boy for helping the girl out!!! 

I guess in this school what they want to teach is, don't help others. 

Schools and Teachers wonder why they get a bad rap.  Why people complain and have no sympathy for them.  It is situations like this that are not that uncommon.  Just like everything, the bad schools and Administrations that make all schools look bad.

This young man should not only have not been suspended, he should have been given an commendation for a job well done.  As for someone being suspended, I believe you need to look at the Teacher and whomever decided the student should be suspended.  The Teacher most definitely needs disciplined and the person making the decision on the Student severely needs disciplined.

I want to say thank you to Anthony Ruelas!!!!  Your actions are the actions that we wish all people had.  You helped someone out in their time of need and that is AWESOME!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

WIAA Ruining High School Sports

What is this world coming to?  I have watched as we have seriously ruined sports at the youth and HS level.

First we went down the road of everyone gets a trophy.  We didn't want to leave anyone out or hurt their feelings.  Sign up and you get a trophy.  Don't have to try hard, don't have to learn to play, don't have to do anything.  Here's your trophy kid, your a winner.

Now the WIAA has decided that the chants that have been around for decades all of a sudden are bad.  They are disrespectful and hurtful.  I have watched generations of kids grow up to be fine outstanding citizens and they heard the chants.  Yet now they are evil?

Maybe we should start teaching life lessons and quit trying to protect everyone's feelings.  These kids need to start learning at a young age to grow thick skin, work hard and earn things.  The WIAA isn't going to be there to protect you from things for the rest of your life.

There are some things that should be addressed.  Lets quit going completely overboard.

The WIAA simply got this completely wrong.  They have gone too far.  They deserve the blowback that they are receiving.  The problem is, they are so full of themselves that they won't even listen to reason.

Clinton's Email Problem Grows, Will it Explode before Election?

It seems that the Clinton Email issue just won't go away.  Those darn Republicans.  Wait...It isn't the Republicans?  It's the FBI!!!

The FBI is now not only still working on the illegal classified emails that Clinton had on her personal server, they are now looking more deeply into corruption.  How things were handled between the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.  Seems that they are finding more and more overlap and sources are saying it is significant.

2015 Deadly Year in Milwaukee

We rang in the new year and shut the door on 2015.  145 Homicides in Milwaukee. 

Will 2016 be a safer year in Milwaukee?

It sure doesn't appear that if you live in Milwaukee that there is any chance that things will be safer or better unless you are a criminal.  The Police Chief and the Mayor both blame politics for the crime spree affecting Milwaukee.  It is the gun laws that are creating this disaster, they say.

I am always amazed that after every shooting we here people and politicians come out and want more gun legislation.  As if people think that laws will stop criminals!  They do know that the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law, right? 

Milwaukee's crime problem isn't going to get any better until the Mayor and Police Chief recognize the real problems in Milwaukee and start to do something about it.

Watching "Making a Murderer"

Like many people out there, I have been watching the Netflix Documentary "Making a Murderer.

I was here during the actual events and can recall at the time that I was confused about the guilt or innocence of both Steve Avery and Brendan Dassey.  There always seemed to be a lot of inconsistencies in the events and the story that the Prosecutor told kept changing.  The Defense also kept changing the story repeatedly.

Now watching the series I think that there are many more questions that seem to never be answered.  I still can't say whether I believe in the guilt or innocence of these two.  What has been more questionable is some of the actions by law enforcement and the Prosecutor.  Much of these questions never have been answered and really should have to be. 

PS: For those that watched the Documentary, What the heck kind of a lawyer was Len Kachinsky?
