  • Trump should get out in front of Obama's attempts to preemptively hamstring his foreign policies

    Trump should officially reassure Russia and Israel that the US will not move forward with Obama's misguided sanctions against Russia or his ill-advised UN attacks on Israel, rather we will be allied with both fighting against Islamofascist terrorism. In fact, it might be time to propose an official mutual defense treaty (outside of the UN or NATO) with these nations and others who wish to fight against Islamic terrorism.

    Obama is a sad figure, and history will regard him as a study in narcissistic hubris. Responsible for an acute aggravation of worldwide misery and suffering, in an age where global indicators of development and education are nevertheless positive, his calm and serious demeanor are but mere appearance in contrast with his lightweight and unserious reflection and behavior. His easy-going and superficial personality make him an affable dinner companion but reveal an insubstantiality manifest in his international policy. In the litany of his crimes without number, the abetting of the slaughter of a half million Syrians is only the latest,...

    Obama by back-stabbing Israel in the UN just showed his true colors...not black or white or mulatto, but Muslim... he is a traitor to our fine nation and a traitor to all those ignorant fools that voted for him! May God curse his soul for what he has done to destroy America. I hope the bastard communist, jihadist is condemned to an eternity in hell by God Almighty!

    Boy am I confused! The Left is throwing you-know-what at the wall trying to see what sticks. Maybe I'm ignorant but what really is the Alt Right? What is Deplorable? What is Angry White Men? What is the Russian hacking? Democrats are coming up with so many confusing little excuses for their failures that I can't keep up with them. In the meantime while our president golfs in Hawaii on a $4 million taxpayer-paid vacation ($85 million in vacations in 8 years) our president-elect is tackling the many issues that have been ignored. No wonder the Democrats are making up...

    In the 1960 World Series the losing team scored more than twice as many runs as the winning team, as the Yankees won three blowout games (16–3, 10–0, and 12–0), while the Pirates won four close games (6–4, 3–2, 5–2, and 10–9). Regardless of how many runs the Yankees had the Pirates won the series by winning the most games. How many Yankees fans have been mocked over the decades for claiming they really won the 1960 World Series because they had more runs? Even the brain dead liberal's at ESPN can understand the Yankees lost under the rules. In...

    My honorary home state. And at the rate California is tanking, my likely new home. Brown hasn't even finished bankrupting us with his high speed railroad to hell and now he wants to put up his own satellites to fight global warming? And wants California to secede from the Union if Trump doesn't allow half of Mexico to move in illegally. And I think the majority of Americans would love to see it happen. Prayers up for President Trump! God bless America.

    A few of the comments: Please vote for Hillary Clinton. Trump is a demigod that will use his powered for his own personal gain. ** Please make the vote right....vote Bernie Sanders ** Trump is not fit for the position. in his short tenure as president elect, he has shown that he is not acting in the best interests of our county but is serving his own interests. Those actions include, but are not limited to the following: *disregarding previous foreign diplomacy (i.e., China and Taiwan) *refusing to attend intelligence briefings *conflicts of interests such as his ties with Russia...

    Tonight driving home - very thin layer of ice on I-64 (Highway 40). No traction. Traffic jammed. Slipping and sliding at 10 miles per hour. NOT A SALT TRUCK IN SIGHT. I-70 from Columbia to St. Louis was arguably the worst stretch of road in the nation, with crashes, closings, backups of many hours. Yet MO Highway 141 was deiced. County roads were deiced. Even my podunk street had large chunks of salt on it, just like in the old days. I noticed something like this before in the last couple of years. What the hell is up? Anybody know?...

    Barack Obama on Thursday said the United States would retaliate against Russian hacking after the White House accused Vladimir Putin of direct involvement in cyberattacks designed to influence the US election. The outgoing US president's remarks dramatically upped the stakes in a dispute between the world's leading nuclear powers over interference that may have swayed last month's tight election in which Republican billionaire Donald Trump defeated Democrat Hillary Clinton.
