I watch quite of bit of Duck FB, and watched yesterday which the two best teams were Clemson and Okie State. Can’t really say about GA and OSU since GA seemed to be playing over their head and WI was overrated.
Now Florida State is trying to take our new coach who has brought our team back to contention. Tough being a small school, but if he wants to go don’t let the door hit you.
Has anyone seen her or McCain in public lately with their ankle boots? Where would McCain go except the morgue?
Pompeo just destroyed Panetta telling him we inherited all from Obama and “your messaged discipline.” Slam dunk.

Flap goes on about John Conyers and Al Franken. Rush explains Net Neutrality and that hilarious Pocohontas joke.
All come on. Trump is Trump and he’s way more interesting than, say, George Dubya Bush.
Besides, Elizabeth Warren lied about her heritage in order to get a sweet teaching position, as Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee pointed out.
Heh.
At least Trump didn’t call her Fauxcohontas or Lieawatha.
We hear that while Nancy Pelosi’s out and about and singing John Conyers’ praises, his victims are out and about and telling stories of crushing babysitting jobs and holding meetings in underwear.
HE’S A CREEP! Hey Pelosi….HE’S NO ICON OF ANYTHING!!!!
As for Al Frankin….ugly, boring, a zero burger.
Finally, yesterday Rush Limbaugh did a good job of explaining “net neutrality” and the growth of cellular technology over Ma Bell’s huge monopoly over the country’s phone service.
Proving what I always knew as I’ve written about AT&T, the monopoly busted by Ronald Reagan, and now AT&T is part of another monopoly!!!
AT&T….worked for them for 15 years, made a lot of money….the company that knows how to take over the world.

Conyers, Lauer and Melania?
Nancy Pelosi, who I knew when I was a child as my father remodeled her house, ought to be ashamed of herself for getting in our face and telling us that John Conyers, that turd from Michigan who likes to walk around in his underwear, is, to quote Pelosi….and ICON.
Say what? A guy with no morals who treats women as if pieces of meat, is an ICON? Well he marched for Civil Rights, Pelosi might say.
So?
Doing something noble does not give you permission to manhandle females for the rest of your life!
And then there’s Matt Lauer. First, he made Hillary mad when he asked about her emails during a presidential debate. But there’s been whispers about Lauer in the past, one whisper involving some kind of orgy with the staff.
Now there was an accuser coming out of the woodwork and he was fired this morning.
Whew. Don’t want to make Hillary mad.
As for Melania, Laura Ingraham had a segment on Melania Trump, our current first lady, and how the press mistreats her.
Laura (whose show I do like by the way) featured some clips from various journalists which were very catty to Melania. Some dopey female writer even wrote, to the effect, as Melania made her entrance with ballet dancers doing a dance around the room, that Melania was “probably” thinking “I only saw four mistakes”.
Why on earth would someone write such a thing? Melania has always presented as a kind and sweet woman.
How small is this?
Ingraham also noted that the press was incredibly nice to Michelle Obama but I don’t necessarily agree with that. Although Michelle deserved any nastiness she got with her ugly disposition.
Still, the media is very nasty to Melania Trump, one of the sweetest first ladies we ever had.

What about Joe Scarborough’s intern?
One morning a couple turned up in the office for a pre-scheduled appointment and they found Lori dead, lying on the office floor.
Then we have the worst, the absolute worst Medical Examiner in the world, Dr. Michael Berkland, said Lori had suffered heart issues, fainted, and hit her head on the desk, killing her.
HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!
You fall down, hit your head, fracture your skull, and die.
This ME was fired by two states and is last well known for keeping dead body parts in his freezer, I am not making this up.
Scarborough resigned from congress within several week’s of Lori’s death. The one where she hit her head and died, boom, just like that.
The biggest defense Joe has is that he was in D.C., voting on a congressional matter, conveniently, at the time of Lori’s death.
Heh.
First, the Medical Examiner from hell did not determine Lori’s time of death. He couldn’t even determine if she was dead or alive quite honestly.
So how the hell does Joe Scarborough know when Lori died as police reports indicate that Lori had been dead for “quite some time”. Her co-worker was on vacation.
Joe Scarborough returns home from DC the very day Lori’s body is discovered.
Lookit, I am a True Crime aficionado and this crime is suspect, suspect, suspect.
Lori’s fainting spell happened several days BEFORE the attacks of 9-11-01. Remember Gary Condit? The only guy in America who benefitted by the attacks of 9-11 but now it looks like Joe Scarborough also gained some benefit.
Because I do not believe a woman in her mid-20’s, who jogged everyday and was healthy to most folks, suddenly fainted, hit her head on a desk and died.
President Trump mentioned Scarborough and this strange death because I strongly suspect there’s more to it.
Trump seems to be president while a lot of actors and two bit nothing-burgers are being discovered as sex perverts, and in some cases, murderers.
Joe Scarborough wants to shut up all talk about Lori Klausutis.
Because something weird about that case and the Medical Examiner who has a fine, fine collection of human body parts could be easily purchased for a few bucks.

Kate Steinle’s murderer goes free
Even though a True Crime buff, I haven’t paid much attention to the Kate Steinle’s case.
Seems Kate met her parents on a pier in San Francisco and some hoodlum who had been deported at least five times prior shot and killed her.
The story of her death is murky. Seems the illegal immigrant,
Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, found a loaded gun wrapped in a tshirt and decided to shoot some seals.
There are some questionable actions I have about the prosecution of this case. First, why did the prosecutors go after first and/or second murder? This low-iq illegal immigrant didn’t aim to kill Kate Steinle.
BUT he certainly should have gotten some kind of manslaughter charge as shooting at seals on a crowded pier is a not a good idea.
Whatever the particulars, bear in mind that this guy had been deported five times and he kept coming back.
Had he stayed deported, as is the plan, Kate Steinle would still be alive.
And if a legal American had found a gun and decided to shoot seals in a crowded marketplace, he or she would go to jail, as well they should.
Just another example of the horrible immigration issues we have in this country.
Folks, how dumb you gotta be not to know that you CANNOT plagiarize your own self.!
Can’t stand them, the fake media.
He Fox….please fire this guy. He brings absolutely nothing to the table and now we are to understand he participated in some sexual hijinks?
Please let him go away.

Michael Flynn guilty of lying to FBI
Tax bill passed
That Michael Flynn thing is nought but a bunch of nonsense repeating what we already know.
So Jared Kushner asked members of the Trump transition team to contact various foreign diplomats to discuss issues at hand. A normal thing for the newly elected to do but the media acts like this is some kind of first, much less a crime.
Hillary and team sells America’s uranium to the Russians and Trump gets in trouble for talking to them?
This is all going to pass someday.
And Corker? Corker? Make the man go away….please.
He’s a zero. Needs to join the Democrats!
Great post and the Naval air base there is a perfect venue for Trump.I had lunch with a mover and shaker from Destin on the Fla. panhandle Friday. He told me if you took out a few people from the bigger cites, jaxville and Tallahassee you get a solid red of conservatives for the entire Fla. panhandle.
STOP THE PRESS ! Susan Collins ?-ME, defends the senate’s tax bill and the theory that lower taxes creates more revenue ! F.Chuck Todd demands to know source of such balderdash
Great summary. Nice to see all this backfire on these duplicitous fools.
Nice background on FNS today...(at the Reagan Library).
Yes, that is the correct spelling. If you watch his interview segment, you will probably come to the same conclusion. He tries to pass himself off as an "independent moderate" when he is a blatant flaming liberal.
Walice interview with McMaster was great, except for Walice, who won't drop the Russia narrative and line of questioning.
Panel now about to discuss Flynn and Russia, Rove up, now talking about who Flynn is going to out...(nobody)
Oh ye of little faith! Of course, it's ANUS! ;)
Well stated Rod. The old adage in effect. Money talks, BS walks.
The NFL throwing dollars at social justice causes, would have hit home run by giving to vets to offset kneelers disrespect of anthem, flag, country
I see your "(t)" key is malfunctioning, as well. What system are you running ....must be a bug in there somewhere , eh ?
Yes, to us. To the Swamp, they're great. It's an obvious ploy to get tax reform off the main burner, and get Flynn back on.
We are at a no-foolin’-honest-to-God Constitutional crisis in our republic. The Pollyannas out there say calm down, everything’s fine. Everything is NOT “fine.” Not by a longshot.
The Deep State/Media Complex is a real and present danger to our duly elected President and to our very foundational beliefs and freedoms.
When the people no longer perceive a “blind” justice system and an honest “intelligence” service, civil unrest is not far behind.
I’ll say it again: God help us all.
Agree on motive on Libya.
To Clinton’s it’s all about $$$$
She exposed herself with the little reported. “We came, we saw , he died “quote Re gaddafi
First, the OK Sooners not the Oklahoma State Cowboys, won the Big 12 Championship yesterday.
The locks are Clemson, Oklahoma, and Georgia, which won the SEC Championship. The discussion boils down to the fourth slot, AL or Ohio State. AL has only one loss to Auburn. OSU has two losses including being blown out by Iowa. OSU is a conference champion.
If it were done strictly on merit, AL should be the fourth team. However, it will probably be Ohio State so that the Big Ten can be represented along with the ACC, SEC, and Big 12.
Great stuff Fish. Some think that when Kate’s killer a seven time illegal loser was given a pass that some expected in the socialist state of Frisco they not only elected Trump to a second term, built a wall but gave us even bigger margins in the House and the Senate next year. Sounds good to me.
Wow Susan Collins and F.Chuck,what a pair,could be very hard to watch....
Are you talking about Willie Taggart? What a crazy season of coaching changes. On the site called The-Boneyard.Com, a UConn can forum, we are taking about Tennessee hiring a football coach and talking about who’ll be taking over UCF and FSU jobs...
