[Hillary's book – What Happened? – published today.  We're going on a short jaunt to a reunion of my old Army outfit, where we again renew ties with all those young lieutenants and captains, and our young pretty and perky wives with their infant fledglings in perambulators, all of whom now look pretty much like we do – tempest fugit.  On the trip Jo Ann will be reading and reporting on the travails of Hillary who today told the Dems the bad news, "I'm not going anywhere."  And one loud and clear message to her discerning readers (aka Democrats in high places) from between the lines of her book is, 'Don't assume that you know everything that I know about you all.' gjr]

    Yo Bobby. And…..most folks think race relations under Obama’s eight year rein also worsened. That’s 8 years 9 months straight. The push for black only segregated dorms started in 2015.
    Hey, Bobbie, a beer summit would solve this whole issue and it will be like this last 8 years and almost nine months never happened. “Pigs in a blanket, fry ’em like bacon” followed by an invite to the White House. Just like old times, eh?

    Mr Cross – “It is not a 1st Amendment right to yell “fire” in a theater but armed and violent hate groups should be allowed to take over our streets?”
    The Charlottesville march was not violent. It was a peaceful march. They had a permit. A judge slapped down the anti-American mayor and let the American citizens that wanted to exercise their rights go ahead with their march. Those are the facts Mr Cross. The antifa had no permit and were bent on violence from the start. They brag about being violent and how they have a right to be violent. The question was not about ‘violent’ groups taking over the street, Mr Cross. You yourself admitted it. Now you are spreading fake news. The only reason there was violence in Charlottesville was due solely to the antifa. Had they not been there, there would have been no violence at all. In fact, the sorry little bunch of whatever they were would have just paraded around and then gone home and nobody would have cared.
    It is pretty obvious the left in this country have no idea what the Bill Of Rights are about.

Only 48% could name free speech as one of them. Funny, that seems to be a mirror to the UC Berkley poll. To be fair 33% could not name one branch of government. Only 26% could name the 3 branches.

    Voter Fraud.
    It has always puzzled me when the subject of voter fraud comes up, there is an immediate knee jerk reaction by some posters on the Left that it is all a bunch of hooey and even more puzzling, the fierce reaction of “you must not look there!” To discard voter fraud out of hand without even opening one’s mind the smallest of cracks to peek into what extent, how many votes are determined invalid, how widespread is voter fraud, and how many (if any) elections results were affected by voter fraud is beyond my compression. What is there to be afraid of?
    Finally, an opinion article echoing my bewilderment with such a ‘cease and desist’ immediate reaction to even comteplating an investigation into voter fraud in these here United States of America.
    “For anyone who dismisses concerns about voter fraud, the unhinged reaction by the left at investigating it should, at the very least, make a logical person wonder what they’re so concerned about.”
    The ACLU’s farcical headline serves as a good example of how panicked the left really is: “Kris Kobach Pushes Voter Fraud Lies While Meeting With Fellow Suppression Activists.”
    Looks like they ran out of room for “Klan,” “Nazi,” and “Puppy killers.”
    “Democrats have vowed to use the legislative process to try to derail the commission. Last month, Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer of New York compared the commission to the white supremacists who marched in Charlottesville, Virginia, and said he would try to eliminate the panel as part of a must-pass bill,” The Times noted.
    Why so afraid, Chuck?

    More Climate Change Bad Science
    Climate scientist Dr. Duane Thresher: “Start with defunding NASA GISS where this whole global warming nonsense started. It was started by James Hansen, formerly head of NASA GISS and considered the father of global warming. It was continued by Gavin Schmidt, current head of NASA GISS, anointed by Hansen, and leading climate change warrior scientist/spokesperson. I know from working there for 7 years that NASA GISS has almost been defunded several times in its life anyway. It’s a small group over a restaurant (Tom’s Restaurant from the TV comedy Seinfeld!) in New York City, nowhere near any other major NASA facility. Just the dedicated data link to the nearest NASA facility, GSFC in Maryland, is a big expense. GISS is the Goddard Institute for SPACE Studies. If you don’t need a rocket to get to it, it’s not space.”
    Thresher rips former colleagues: “Physicists and mathematicians who couldn’t make it in their own fields, like James Hansen and Gavin Schmidt (who actually told me one reason he became a climate scientist was because he couldn’t make it in his degree field of mathematics). People who just wanted instant success as fake heroes or showmen rather than doing years of hard slow obscure real science.”
    “NASA GISS is a monument to bad science that truly should be torn down.

    “We’re very angry, we’re tired and we’re just bringing awareness to let this community know, this is not OK and let this judge know his ruling was not OK,” demonstrator Bishop Derrick Robinson said. “We’re upset by his ruling and we’re out here today to continue to bring awareness and disturbance on the day.”
