[Here's a short piece – 'The problem with liberalism: It has no limiting principles' – by Tim Jones that closely summarizes a lot of what RR has been promoting (H/T to correspondent).  Its appearance in the American Thinker again gives lie to the local liberal loonies who continue to maintain that the sentiments and observations appearing in these pages are the rantings of lone rightwing voices found only in these foothills.  My own thesis – that these loonies don't get out very much to find out what's happening in the world – has been proven true countless number of times over the lifetime of RR.  They really should expand their sources if they want to stop coming off as being somewhere between terminally cynical and simply silly.  gjr]

    Trumps first budget is not in play yet. Eight years of Obama, Paul’s hero, gave the country 10 trillion in debt.

    According to Gregory it’s the Repubs fault because they controlled the Congress. Your beef is with him

    Stop the presses! Holy Cow, what do you think of her shoes??? Weird, like something out of a Jack Nicholas film with Jack chasing his wife around with an ax and the kid muttering red rum. Man, this is something else. Biggest story of the week, for sure.
    This is not fakenews. Multiple established sources. The 4th Estate at its finest.

    Hmm. Seems to me it is very Eastern European style of Christmas decor. Stylist. Too white for America? Too White, white, white, white, white, I reckon.
    In other fake media related news, CNN finally caught a break:
    “Christmas comes early! Finally, good news from @CNN.”

    As of a few days ago, Yuba County has banned ALL commercial cultivation of the sacred Marihuana Houchie Houchie plant in all unincorporated parts of the county. Ban takes effect in 30 Days. Might be tweaked with when the State issues guidelines in 2018. Original state target date for issuance of guidelines being pushed back.
    Local control. Hmmm. Isn’t Camptonville in Yuba County?

    What is there to talk about Walt? Nevada County will be adopting a growing ordinance based on the input of the CAG which is working on their final recommendations. Lets see what they come up with. One thing for sure Nevada County is opposed to a total ban on outdoor cultivation as evidenced by the 60-40 defeat of Measure W whose spokesperson was RR regular Don Bessee. That is totally different than what Yuba County residents supported which was a total ban. There are also two
    Supes races and the Sheriffs office up for election next year and I’m sure it will be a major issue.
    There will be some legal commercial growing in Nevada County. Even South County Supe Ed Scofield is coming around to that.

    Pretty much split during Obama’ term with the Repubs ending on top. Not at all under Obama’s control
    During President Obama’s 8 years on office, Democrats controlled Congress for the first 2 years, Congress was split for the middle 4 years, and Republicans controlled Congress for the last 2 years.

    Paul didn’t even read the Union about DOPE. (today)
    Need a link to find it Paul?
    “Nevada City allows only one medical cannabis dispensary to operate and hasn’t opted to allow sales of recreational cannabis, despite California legalizing the sale and use of cannabis for anyone 21 years of age or older beginning in 2018.”
    “Neither Grass Valley nor Nevada County have opted to allow medical or recreational cannabis dispensaries in their respective jurisdictions.”

    Right Paul,,, whatever you say.

    Hmm. Everything Trump will try to do is DOA….from tax reform, to the Wall, to everything under the sun. Trump is a liar!!!!! DOA….its all DOA…..squawked the Popinjay carrying the water for the Industrial Liberal Media Complex. The knives are out now.

    Well, if Roy Moore wins, the Republicans will,cut their support for him and block him. Settled, done deal. Well. the Republicans will cut off all their support for Trump, disown him, flee far away from him, and Trump,will have to,resign from office. Settled, done deal. 2018 is coming .
    “Trump in a freefall! On Rasmussen he has dropped 21 points in a month from + 14 a month ago to -7 today. Also on Gallop he is now -16, an all time low. This is before the grim scenario of Trumpcare became news. The knives are sharpening and soon the Repubs will be looking at cutting their support as 2018 and the midterms is just around the corner.”

    My, my. All 62 Republicans in the Senate now support the tax bill. Sure, there are some items in the bill (as with any bill) that some R’s don’t like, but looking at the forest from the tress, it is literally all aboard the Trump Train.
    .
    2018 is coming and not,one Republican wants to go,out on the campaign trail as the guy or doll who voted against tax cuts for the working poor. Seems the Democrats have no problem being the guys and dolls standing against tax cuts for working Americans…in 2018.

    The ninth federal judge appointed by Trump was confirmed today. Slow and steady…..and just won’t quit. If the path is blocked, he will find another way. He will just keep coming at ya and never quit, never tire, and never stop. Truly, a man possessed.

    What will they hyperventilate over next? The Yellow Shower Dossier got traced back to Crooked Hillary….crickets since. The pervs in Congress are having their Day of Reckoning thanks to the womanfolk, so that threw the wet blanket on their Roy Moore moral outrage. Hmm. What’s next? I dunno, maybe the exploding heads will shriek about tax cuts for the rich, flail their arms above their heads, and threaten a government shutdown.
