I would love to see Alabama play some of the pros no telling who would win.

[Alas Babylon!]

I’m done with them.

The scales fell off my eyes on the NFL.

They can start firing all the kneelers, but I can never, ever be the fan I used to be.

What they said about us who opposed the disrespect said all I needed to understand them.

We’re deplorables; they’re elite Leftists.

They sold out football for politics.

I mean, of course, the NFL masters and owners, staff and executives.

[Gritty]

This one is one of your best, bray. It was very touching yet revealing in so many ways!

This event was great example of history and morality and the way it should be taught - by those who actually lived it.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Bucs

Bucks? Why isn't that "racist"?

[rodguy911]

Great post my take as well.
I don’t need the dolphins any more,I have FAU,UCF and the Gators all I need.

[FreedBird]

It seems the people who hate Trump, may have been blaming someone for their misery before Trump came along. People are always looking for a scapegoat to blame for their lack of joy
in life. The miserable hateful people on T.V. are getting paid to be miserable and hateful. People addicted to hate need to be around other people who like to complain and need others who are similar miserable people.If we love hate, turn on CNN. CNN will not make you feel better. CNN will promote more hate and miserable talking heads, who are there to sell more hate to those addicted to hate.

addiction.

[dfwgator]

“Is like Gorky says in ‘Lower Depths.’ Quote: ‘Miserable being must find more miserable being. Then is happy.’ Unquote.”

[FreedBird]

The Dem. Media complains about Trump being President to the world. The people who are already miserable find hate talk music to the ears. The people who are full of joy turn it off. Hate is an addiction like a drug!

One of the bigger stories I am researching now is how much loot was stolen by zero and hillary from Qdaffi.

Never let a crisis that you created go to waste. If they didn't take it, then their globalist allies did and will funnel it back to them. The world is filled with Alexander Downer types

There are an amazing number of them that are willing to do just about anything for Bill and Hillary. I'm sure some out of the goodness of their hearts. Others are in for the leftover money. Some under duress. And the rest (most) because they hate America and want it destroyed so we can't interfere with their plans for the rest of the world.

[palmer]

Downer, above, is a key figure in spygate: /focus/news/3696418/posts

Bush 41 is one of those figures the mainstream media always hated, until he had nice things to say about Clinton.

Yes, we can say he really was a “nice guy”, both while as Reagan’s V.P., while as President and in retirement.

But seeing as most of what happened and was accomplished in his four years as president was set up for him by his predecessor - the end of the cold war, or was mishandled by him (failed to take out Saddam completely when he had the chance, leaving a bad situation festering and worse for a dozen years); so other than his nice demeanor I have never been enamored of his “accomplishments”. To me, from his campaign against Reagan on to the end, he was the establishments main establishment guy.

You can see it today in the universal media raising of their glasses to him, and somehow likely seeking in it all to say “and he was never like Trump”.

[Roccus]

How to stop this ?

The fourth box.....all else is folly.

[rodguy911]

Great post. One of the reasons I’m going to search it out is that the range I heard was 13 billion to 180 billion. Seems Qdaffi was keeping the wealth of Libya under wraps yet it was stolen by the usual suspects.I’m not there yet but I’m gonna look.

Looks like FR is all over this one.
described as simple but looks a bit complex to me.

[pugmama]

Most amazing thing to me is no-one ( except maybe George Webb) is really interested in following the money.
How did the Clintons and the Obamas become so rich once they left office? The Clintons were taking stuff from the White House when they left and then...voila, they are able to buy multiple homes as did the Obamas.

[shalom aleichem]

Buc stands for buccaneer. You know, like how we sell corn here in the midwest.

[SMGFan]

“These Sunday shows with all the praise for George H. W. Bush are the same ones that 25 years ago called him a crook, racist, sexist, warmonger, ordering CIA assasinations, wanted him in jail for Iran Contra, claimed he and the Carlyle Group were corrupt.”

[rodguy911]

There is no telling what some of these clowns are worth its in the billions but really hard to track down.It’s in foreign countries under corporate names or lawyer names next to impossible to validate.
We know the Clintons tapped Haiti for between 4 and 10 billion but try and find where it is.
and thats just one target.

[DanZ]

Too bad we ended the Gulf War several days too early. An opportunity was squandered, which set up the subsequent invasion of Iraq. Powell was a disaster.

As Alas Babylon! mentioned, the war record of Bush Sr. like that of McCain is to be praised. After that not much in terms of making America Great. - Read my Lips, No New Taxes - what was that all about Mr. RINO?

The "military" history most are taught, and that is is most talked about are VICTORs like Caesar, the Mongols, and others who did not allow their enemies to survive. Bush Sr. failed us badly on this one

[a little elbow grease]

"Juan Williams is paid big bucks, to say negative things each day about President Trump. The poison is hatred toward Trump.

Juan Williams has no love in his heart for the President. He contributes to the hate for a pay check."

JUAN WILLIAMS IS PATHETIC in many ways. Here is just one.

Post reporter Williams apologizes for 'innappropriate' verbal conduct

(snip) -- By Howard Kurtz Washington Post Staff Writer Saturday, November 2, 1991

Washington Post Magazine reporter Juan Williams said yesterday that the newspaper has disciplined him for what he called "wrong" and "inappropriate" verbal conduct toward women staffers and he apologized to his colleagues.

In an open letter to the newsroom, Williams said: "It pained me to learn during the investigation that I had offended some of you. I have said so repeatedly in the last few weeks, and repeat here: some of my verbal conduct was wrong, I now know that, and I extend my sincerest apology to those whom I offended. I have committed to Post management, and I commit to you -- and to myself -- to change my ways."

Williams's letter came several hours after about 50 female employees met with Executive Editor Leonard Downie Jr. and said they objected to The Post's refusal to say how the paper had resolved allegations of verbal sexual harassment against Williams. The newspaper's management has maintained that such personnel inquiries must remain confidential.
