Now would probably be a good time to go while the Pussy-in-Chief is still at the plate. Can you imagine that wimp doing anything?

I disagree. Ø has been out-pussied by the governors, AG's and legislatures of the various states he has imposed upon. Which governor has effectively pushed back against any of Obama's unconstitutional mandates or that of out-of-control court decisions? I'm tapping my fingers waiting.

I’m sure that the reason the Brits voted to leave the EU has something to do with Global Warming.

British voters unleash a .. tsunami ...

Leave.... 51.9%
Stay ......48.1%

Up to 30% of UK population will be from ethnic minorities by 2050 ...

There is no Tsunami, don't be fooled.
if they would have waited a couple of years to vote
the #'s would flip-flop.
Yesterday, was the last time the "English" had a say.

National identity
Respondents to the 2011 UK census gave their national identities as follows:..
'English only'.... 51.5%
All Others......... 48.5%

I hear that bandied about a lot. It is assumed that ethnic minorities automatically mean bad things for conservatives.

That need not be so. We should not concede that all ethnic minorities will automatically go into the Democrat (liberal) column.

It's time that conservatives start reaching out to these people. I believe that Trump is a good start. But he cannot do it alone.

In the Oval Office the Churchill bust was replaced with one of ML King Jr., and now sits outside the Treaty Room in the White House.

Here is a gem of a quote from April from the Mayor of London regarding both the Churchill Bust and the Referendum:

Writing in U.K. publication The Sun today, Johnson accused Obama of removing the bronze bust of his hero, Winston Churchill, from the Oval Office by suggesting that it was "a symbol of the part-Kenyan president’s ancestral dislike of the British empire – of which Churchill had been such a fervent defender."

"For the United States to tell us in the U.K. that we must surrender control of so much of our democracy – it is a breathtaking example of the principle of do-as-I-say-but-not-as-I-do," Johnson goes on to say in the op-ed. "It is incoherent. It is inconsistent, and yes it is downright hypocritical. The Americans would never contemplate anything like the E.U., for themselves or for their neighbors in their own hemisphere. Why should they think it right for us?"

Very interested to watch the Netherlands now. They are a muslim-overrun mess. I hope BREXIT acts as a testosterone booster.

People of different languages and cultures do not, cannot blend successfully. “When in Rome, do as the Romans do” is an old and valuable statement.

did the American patriots inspire the Brits

I don't think I'd read that much into it.

I just wonder what the October surprise will be?


Ah, something tells me that, with Trump’s past “association” with the Clinton’s, he probably knows a few things that the Clintons hope he DOESN’T know.

So, maybe the real question is, “Who is going to surprise whom?”

Well, I’d sure like that to be the case and don’t think it has not crossed my mind but I really hope he does not know the clintoons that way.

“Without the EU millstone, Britain can once again be America’s best ally (after Obama is gone, of course).”

We can reestablish our ally ties with Britain by going to a Brit website and ordering a Brexit T-shirt. They run about $27US with $6 shipping to the US. Don’t need King Buckwheat’s permission.
