Morning AB, All. As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably and keeping the peace with gentle thread policing. Thank you Bray for weekly written wisdom, Thank all yon contributors for excellent commentary to flesh it all out. Below are the words from my daily political diary. It is quite long so scroll on by if not interested. But do stay around and add your commentary and point of view to the thread.

Check out Road Warrior ‘04 for fine insight and input.

Bert Bergdahl admits guilt. Colin Kaepernick accuses NFL of "collusion. Robert DiNiro tells President Trump off. Trayvon Martin given posthumous degree from Florida college.

------------------------

Man, being bad and nasty in America pays off.

First, Bowe Bergdahl got disgusted with American politics and military tactics so he walked off and joined the Taliban in 2009.

Susan Rice, who lies like a champion and should win prizes, declared Bergdahl to be a wonderful and loyal human being who left his army platoon and several would die trying to save him.

I thought Obama would get off with getting this wimp released but he admitted guilt and so he was.

--------------------

He who kneels, Colin Kaepernick, says the NFL is colluding against him to keep him off the league.

Could it be because he is a nothing burger who started all this nonsense?

Ugly without a shred of self-pride….this guy needs to fade away.

----------------------

Robert DeNiro, go on with your bad self man!

I am just so impressed how he told President to go F**k himself. Such class!

According to DeNiro, Trump is a punk, a dog and a pig and this fine, fine actor wants to punch our president in the face.

Oh, and DeNiro worked with the very nice and handsome Harvey Weinstein on a movie that looks like it would be canceled.

Hey Bob! Us deplorables can't stand you. Go away.

-----------------------

Finally, heh, the wise and nice Trayvon Martin was awarded a college degree post-humously.

Trayvon Martin, who could have been Obama's son, a fine man scouting the community for places to rob.

Of course he gets a college degree.

I say give him one just for dying and ridding this planet of his presence.

McCain still attacking President on his death bed. Sean Hannity opens discussion of the Clinton Foundation and Russian collusion.

-----------------------------------

So the Clinton Foundation received millions of dollars from Russia in exchange for ownership of 20% of our uranium?

They have thousands of people investigating President Trump over some sort of imaginary collusion with Russia when the folks who really sold America and America's assets down the river are not checked out?

Why isn't the CURRENT congress looking into THIS corruption?

-------------------------

John McCain has a very, very questionable past. There's the Keating Five that he was involved with. There's questions on his ability to fly an airplane. Now he is AGAINST his party's elected guy.

Oh, and let's not forget his fame for Campaign Finance Reform as I sleep so much better at night that McCain thought such a stupid thing was important while refusing to deal with Obamacare.

Now McCain is out and about and beating on his President.

McCain is not going to live too much longer, we all know that. Why does he want to go down as AN ENEMY OF HIS VOTERS?

Below two horrible quotes from McCain, made yesterday.

---------------------

<<>>

-----------------------------

<<<“We live in a land made of ideals, not blood and soil. We are the custodians of those ideals at home, and their champion abroad. We have done great good in the world. That leadership has had its costs, but we have become incomparably powerful and wealthy as we did. We have a moral obligation to continue in our just cause, and we would bring more than shame on ourselves if we don’t. We will not thrive in a world where our leadership and ideals are absent. We wouldn’t deserve to.”>>>

"He knew what he was getting into"

-----------------------

I don't know off hand the name of the absurd Florida politico with the cowboy hat, the one who lied and said she heard President Trump tell one Gold Star mother that her son, killed overseas, knew what he was getting into.

All day I been listening to the liberals and dirty Democrats lambaste Trump for saying something so heartless.

Of course this is not truth of what Trump told that grieving mother.

The concept that the military knows what they are getting into has been the beat since the Vietnam war, when my young husband was drafted against his will and had to flee to Canada.

THOSE soldiers knew what they were getting into BUT IT WASN'T NECESSARILY THEIR CHOICE!!!

Now we have an all-volunteer army and every soldier who signed up did it willingly and knew that they might come home in coffin.

Whoever this silly cowboy-hate wearing congress critter is, she was deliberately lying and deceiving.

Of course she's a Democrat.

Why am I surprised?

Delaware to get transgender bathrooms?

--------------------------

Below the text of the law as it would pass.

Why are these people doing this? Nobody wants this nonsense, not in Delaware, not anywhere in America.

Well the LGBT group wants it. That's about what? One person out of every five million?

Among the more controversial aspects of the proposed rules are the following:

All students enrolled in a Delaware public school would be able to self-identify gender or race. (Rule 7.4)

A student would have the opportunity to participate on the sports team that is consistent with the student's gender identity, regardless of the student's assigned sex at birth. (6.4)

A student would have the opportunity to participate in the program of instruction dealing with human sexuality that is consistent with the student's gender identity, regardless of the student's assigned sex at birth. (3.4)

Regarding physical education programs - goals, objectives and skill development standards could not be designated on the basis of gender. (5.2)

School districts and charter schools would be required to work with students and families on providing access to locker rooms and bathrooms that correspond to students' "gender identity or expression." (8.1)

Even if a student does not legally change his or her name, he or she can select a "preferred name" based on a "protected characteristic" that school officials would be obligated to use except on official records. (7.3)

Delawareans are eager to get this thing out of their sight.

George dubya betrays,crazy Florida Democrat Frederica Wilson.

-------------------------------

Summary of week passed

I once liked George Dubya Bush. Sure I had issues with his failure to defend himself and now, at a later time and with benefit of retrospect, I realized he was not a very smart man.

And I don't think too much of his family, a group of prima donnas that need to exit stage left.

Last week Dubya gives this speech filled with nuances and inuendo. It was a bitch-slap against Trump and all I got to share with Dubya is that I would take Trump any day over that mess you governed.

The Iraq invasion was messed up, the "no weapons of mass destruction" mantra held the day, Hurricane Katrina became a mess.

Oh, and had you gotten rid of Karl Rove it would have been better right from the start.

So far Trump has had three major, major hurricanes, earthquakes around the world and one major terrorist attack.

This with a media lambasting him constantly and his own party working against him.

Hey Dubya! GO AWAY!!!

-----------------------------

The kerfuffle between this Florida nitwit Wilson with the hat and President Trump has been interesting, if a bit childish.

She invents some story that Trump told a gold star wife that her husband knew what he was getting in to.

Period.

Of course it was more detailed than that. Men are NOT drafted into the army against their will today, like my young first husband was.

They sign up, they volunteer. And they do know what they're getting into, unlike the draftees who had no choice.

Those of us with brains understand this but the so-called "Resistance" movement is naught but a bunch of low IQ people determined to destroy the peoples' presidential choice.

This Wilson woman, Lord, she is not the brightest bulb in the lamp.

On a personal note…..

…..so I joined the local Senior center at the urging of a fellow church member who, interestingly, ran that same senior center for many years before retirement.

She wanted to play Scrabble with me but once I joined I didn’t make contact with her for a couple of weeks.

Meanwhile I read the weekly newsletter email and saw something that got me excited and ready to go.

PINOCHLE!!!!!

My favorite card game on all the planet and I have not played it in over 30 years.

Now I did play pinochle online a few years back but like playing any game online, if the guy on the other end of the WIFI gets a bad hand…boom, he or she just quits the game!

You can’t do that in person so I mourned that no one is around in Delaware that plays pinochle or, more likely, I didn’t know where to find them.

So I called the contact number on a Sunday and left a message. Four days go by, no response. I shrug but am disappointed. I pondered whether to tattle on this guy to the former Director who did finally invite me to join her in a game of Scrabble.

Friday a week ago the guy finally calls and tells me he had to have his ears cleaned out and he couldn’t call me back sooner else he wouldn’t have been able to hear me.

He invites me to join the group the coming Tuesday (this Tuesday just passed) and I show up. The plan was for me to get the written rules as they play and to sit and observe for a few minutes. Then maybe join in the game NEXT time (this coming Tuesday).

This plan was fine with me as I had my Coumadine test, went grocery shopping, got gas, picked up some Vodka and wanted to get home. So I greeted the host, a quite handsome man I must add. He gave me the rules and I sat down, figuring fifteen minutes of observation and I’d be outta there.

After settling in to a chair, me and the host discussed matters of pinochle and before I could gather my wits….SEVEN MORE MEN ENTER THE ROOM!!!

My jaw hits the floor.

Voice shaking, I query…”don’t any women around here play pinochle?”

I mean when I played pinochle it was with all women except for those times when couples would gather for an evening of the game.

Evidently women don’t play pinochle in Delaware.

My host tells me that there are a couple of women that will sometimes join in.

And every one of those men were my age and all were right handsome.

Goodness. I wonder what to do, what to do.

So I observe my host’s game and man the guy’s got all diamonds and clubs, couple of hearts and no spades. He has a marvelous hand and I love watching it get played.

Only he didn’t take the bid but he and his partner did set the opposing team back.

Joy filled me as I love, love, love that game and I knew, a million men or not, that I was going to join that game.

After that amazing hand I grabbed my pocketbook to leave. I stopped by my host’s seat and told him, tongue in cheeky, that I would have bid 90 on that hand, that it was glorious.

Then begins a shout fest that he only have 12 meld and was missing one Ace of diamonds. The other men all join in with their opinions, many agreed with me.

It was laughter and commentary and fun. And I ain’t too awful ugly…..they noticed me and begged for me to please come back.

Which I will.

This coming Tuesday.

Wish me luck.

This Wilson “woman”...

Note how now CBS’s Face the Nation has on Khirz Kahn, the Pakistani (along with his mum wife) on to further pile on Donald Trump with the “Dissing of the Gold Star Family” Fake News.

I really hate the mainstream media!

And did I mention that CBS has yet to say one stinking word about the Clinton Cash Uranium One deal with Russians? A deal that involved Mueller, Rosenstein and Comey—who are coincidentally investigating TRUMP—not CLINTON—for collusion with the Ruskies?

How clever CBS—like a little child with fingers plugging their ears screaming, wailing, anything to take the spotlight off of Clinton and focus it on Trump!

Morning fish nice summary.

What Berghdahl was really about was to use him to deflect what was going on in the background which was a mad rush to get rid of gitmo prisoners ASAP.

Val/Jar did all the negotiations with the Haqqani a sophisticated terror group located near the Afghan/pakiville border that is skilled in manipulation bribery,murder and coercion perfect for val/jar to deal with.

She tried her best to get them to take up to 50 prisoners bribing them with as much as 50 million but in the end they would only take five million and the five prisoners who were high ranking taliban officers. Berghdal was never an issue only a deserter and a pawn.
