Jessie Jackmail has a lot of expenses nowdays. He has to help pay his son’s legal fees for getting caught and that accident child has got to be HS age now. Private schools ain’t cheap.

Now he has to run in and be Mr Morality against these crackers.

Happy New Year

I have a choir mate, nice lady, proud to be a liberal Democrat so she says.

The other day she says “I got my Hillary bumper sticker the other day.”

I just peered at her.

She held up her hand to stop what she thought would be my protests....”It isn’t on the car just yet.”

“She allowed those four Americans to be killed in Benghazi,” I commented, quietly.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about and I don’t want to know.” Yes, she said that. Liberals want to feel good about what they believe so don’t go telling them the truth.

“Diane, you always come to me when you want information. I am a news junkee and know way more about these sorts of things than most folks. I’m not necessarily proud of my addiction and I don’t think it makes me better than anyone else. But come on, give me credit for knowing stuff, LISTEN TO ME ABOUT THESE THINGS!”

So I gave her an example, like the Repubs should do to American only they don’t have a clue.

“Suppose someone came to you and said the following: ‘I just met Father Joe and what a wonderful guy. You are so lucky to have him as Pastor of your church.”

Now Diane despises Father Joe and frankly, in the past, he’s had issues, till the point when the Pastoral council wrote the Bishop to throw him out. Father Joe survived it but Diane does not like him, she knows the sins he made in the past....yes Father Joe needed some help from his Lord to get it right. I think he has Tourette’s syndrome but never mind, it isn’t about him.

“How would you feel at this adulation of Father Joe when you know the truth?”

Diane just sat and pondered.

“You’d try to correct the record, I’m thinking. Which is what I’m doing with Hillary. Just because you didn’t know about the four Americans left to die at Benghazi does not mean it didn’t happen. Just because a new parishioner does not know about Father Joe’s history does not mean it didn’t happen. be an informed voter for God’s sake!”

Which is why she hasn’t put the Hillary thing on her car and my goal from now on is to present my arguments as done above.

We shall see.

God has a plan for me and I’m just following along.

FNS - Howard Dean was busy defending Obamacare. I kept waiting to see him explode into an Iowa DeanYell, but he was able to speak at a conversational level. BUT, the longer he went on about how Obamacare will be turning it all around soon, I realized that the Obamacare supporters have turned into the ultimate supporters of failure; they sound like Cubs fans.

And Adam Schiff did not do himself any favors today when he supported the New York Times conclusion on Benghazi. Many years ago Mad Magazine got it right about the NY Times with one of their margin notes: All the news that fits, we print.

Joe Lieberman on Fox panel says he’d vote for Obiecare again. I thought he’d seen some of the light. He’s not running for anything, which makes that easier to say, I s’pose.

I agree the NYT fairy tale is simply an attempt to run cover for Hillary.

. I wonder if this will backfire. I would think with the overwhelming evidence, they would want to never talk about it again. This revives the topic and puts the spotlight right back on her.

FNS panel - the economy will continue to get better in 2014, and Joe Lieberman is the most optimistic in that category. The one thing he did not predict is that the work force will expand, only that the (reported) unemployment rate will decrease to 6.5%. Apparently people who don’t have jobs and don’t count as unemployed any more have a source of spending potential that is not obvious to me.

I think he said the safety net is compassionate and short term, that unemployment benefits are not a career

She is a Dem and will vote whichever way the Party tells her. She wants to be a good person and in her religion that means voting Dem.

Happy New Year

The shakedown game is getting crowded.
Is their room for both r@ace baiters and g2y baiters?

Best I can figure, as I agree with you about the pitfalls of having the lying NY Times do that absurd story AGAIN-Hillary and the liars figured that enough time had passed, that the public was tired of Benghazi and time to begin the lying.

Like my friend Diane, so many people know nothing. The Repubs need to do what I did. I don’t know what Diane’s going to do but I shall fight the lies every chance I get.

I read somewhere that dear Lord, we don’t need a THIRD party, go on....

....WE NEED A SECOND PARTY!!

What we are seeing in the media today is a result of repeal of the Smith Mundt Act – added to the NDAA of 2013.

Long term unemployment benefits are going away for millions, which means they are going to have to start looking for work again. Wonder how much a difference this is going to make in the unemployment numbers as it is a good bet most of these individuals had quit looking for a job?

Did someone takd David Gregory aside and tell him to inject more ‘passion’ into his presentation? His breathless presentation about things he obviously doesn't care about is painful to watch...

It's like he's trying to copy Hannity or some FOX on-air personality who really does feel strongly about an issue.

It makes Gregory come across like a twelve year old boy who has been told to smile when he doesn't feel like smiling... tight, artificial, whiny and staged.

Dreadful.

If Gregory doesn't feel passion about an issue, trying to fake it makes it worse. Either let him report on things he cares about ( maybe how to fix your hair when you're a guy) or find someone who gives a flip about politics.
