I’d love Sean, Rush and Mark, BUT can it be made to work for the bionic ear??? I don’t think Rush thinks it can and the worst result would to have him fail. Chances would be better with a much smaller field and with Rush off stage not being fed any crowd noise and being fed trxt by his court reporters. And with some practice with that tech.

Don’t make that call.

Probably a phishing scam.

People have said Trump is not campaigning properly because he has depended on hype and media. However, he is now taking serious steps to make his ground game.

You're a blithering idiot!

Obviously you prefer Obama's tactics of kissing our enemies rings and giving away this nation.

Trump wouldn’t have given Iran a clear path to nukes,
tacit permission to attack Israel, nor would he stiff
our British allies. You are badly misguided.

I read a column off of DRUDGE saying that even the hoards of liberals in the room following the debate were aghast over the tone of the CNBC moderators and that CNBC had to shut down their cameras and closed out the after panel discussion.

I did see that happen. Larry Kudlow was on this after panel, trying to defend Trump against a rant by a female panelist that Trump had really lost, lost, lost. Big. Before he could finish his first statement, he was interrupted by the anchor who said they had to go, and they cut to other programming! They shut down their own coverage!

Can you believe it? It was like an alarm had gone off it was so fast and totally unexpected.

Yes that’s true, but von Braun and his cohort built on the work Robert Goddard, whom we had been ignoring.

It wasn’t any lack of ability on our part it was a lack of investment in American talent- the Nazi government spent money to develop rockets while we ignored them.

So we bagged von Braun and his boys at war’s end to gain what they had developed. That’s a far cry from what we are doing by replacing American engineers with H1-B imports.

Did Fox declare Carson the winner before or after the debate. Not that it matters.

Great minds think alike! (Hahaha!)

I’d still like to see a panel with some respected / smart conservative policyMAKERS included, as I and others have suggested. If the entire panel is talk radio hosts, the debate will be slammed for that.

BTW, esp. if this could be a series of debates, even more panelists could be brought in to particular debates. Sarah Palin on energy questions. Joe Lieberman on the ME, if he would agree to it, and is still “OK” mentally, these days. (Yes, I know he’s not a pub, but, he’s sensible in some areas.) Etc.

That is what I figured and my nephew said to leave it like it is until he can come tomorrow. The fact is it wouldn't even let me close the windows down. Will see if they are still there in the morning.

I read what you wrote. Your claim is that we had capable scientists and engineers in the 1960s and don’t now because our education system has been dumbed down.

If that idea had any merit in the H1-B debate then few American students would be graduating with STEM degrees, and that’s simply not the case.

They do graduate in those fields but they are not getting hired. One big reason that they don’t get hired is because firms are using the H1-B program to replace Americans with foreign workers whom they pay less.

And more than that American universities have been giving foreign students preferential treatment, so that Americans can’t get the classes they need for their degrees.

So the problem isn’t that I didn’t read what you wrote. I read it, and you were trying pass off the idea that we don’t graduate American students who can handle math and science. Good luck with that canard.
