There is no better place to find a focus group to determine the best path forward for Americans that believe we are endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights, among these are life and liberty. I am seeking input from people that reject the dominion of the group responsible for the mass election fraud and the attack on the cornerstone of liberty, the vote. What path should the 73 million plus voters for President Trump take if the courts and the legislatures surrender to this massive, multi-state election fraud? The Trump voters are good people. So how can good people...

"This time FOR SURE!" Bullwinkle would exclaim to Rocky, as ONCE AGAIN he tries to pull a rabbit out of his hat. But of course, once again he would fail. Such is life for Head DUmmie Skinner (David Allen), Assistant Head DUmmie EarlG (Dave Allsopp), and Minor Flunkie DUmmie Elad (Brian Leitner), as they try to enforce rules for their insane asylum. They are now up to version 47.0, I think, as we see here in this THREAD, "An important announcement about the DU rules, and how we enforce them." Skinner's ineffectual attempts at creating order out of chaos...

WASHINGTON -- Anxious to chart a centrist course with Democrats' new majority in Congress, incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her top deputies are busily working in private and public to rein in the liberal ambitions of some senior party heavyweights --including proposals to reinstate the military draft and end the Pentagon's ban on gays in uniform. Pelosi has urged House Democrats, including incoming committee chairmen, to use the first weeks of next year's congressional term to focus exclusively on proposals on which the party is unified and legislative goals that are within reach, according to Pelosi allies and aides....

WASHINGTON -- When Sen. Trent Lott decides which GOP presidential candidate to support in 2008, it apparently will not be Sen. Bill Frist, the Tennessee Republican who Lott says betrayed him at a low moment in his political career. Asked Sunday whether Frist, who succeeded Lott as Senate majority leader in 2002, has the character to be president, Lott paused before answering. ''I think I'd have to think about that,'' said Lott (R-Miss.). Lott said ''a lot of good people out there'' are thinking about whether to run and that ''I probably would lean toward some of the others, let...

Mississippi Senator Trent Lott's new memoir, Herding Cats: A Life in Politics, goes on sale this week, more than 2-1/2 years after he was ousted as the Senate's Republican leader. That experience, it would seem, has taught him nothing. As Lott tells the tale, he lost his post because disloyal Senate colleagues exploited an ''innocent but thoughtless remark" he made about Strom Thurmond's segregationist presidential campaign of 1948. He fumes in particular over Senator Bill Frist of Tennessee, who succeeded him as Republican leader. ''I considered Frist's power grab a personal betrayal," Lott writes in the new book, according to...

WASHINGTON - The Senate is crammed with "lone wolves and immense egos," former Majority Leader Trent Lott writes in a memoir that settles a few scores with fellow Republicans and recounts an improbable partnership with a Democratic president. ADVERTISEMENT In "Herding Cats, A Lifetime in Politics," Lott wrote that Sen. Bill Frist (news, bio, voting record), his successor as majority leader, was one of the "main manipulators" in the events that resulted in his own loss of power. Lott lost his post in 2002 after making racially tinged remarks at a 100th birthday party for one-time segregationist Sen. Strom Thurmond."Frist's...

WASHINGTON - Former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott blames his fall from power in 2002 on a "personal betrayal" by an ambitious Sen. Bill Frist (news, bio, voting record), his successor, adding in a new book that President Bush, Colin Powell and other GOP associates played a role. ADVERTISEMENT Frist, R-Tenn., "didn't even have the courtesy to call and tell me personally that he was going to run," the Mississippi Republican wrote of a tumultuous period in which he lost his position as Senate leader after making racially tinged remarks.

Sen. Trent Lott's upcoming book, Herding Cats, is far less catty than anyone could have anticipated. The book was expected to be explosive, given how famous Lott is for his temper and ability to hold a grudge, and thus apparently ready to take no prisoners in gaining revenge for the political downfall he suffered in the aftermath of his remarks at a Strom Thurmond birthday party. But the book's publication date was delayed at least twice, seemingly at a time when the political winds were shifting in a way advantageous to Lott. Regan Books held back galleys, and rumors swirled...

Lott Singles Out Frist, Nickles, Allbaugh For Criticism In His New Book Mon Aug 15 2005 10:05:29 ET In his new autobiography HERDING CATS, Sen. Trent Lott accuses Sen. Bill Frist and former Sen. Don Nickles "of helping mastermind" his fall from power in 2002! ROLL CALL reports: "While Lott continues to work with Frist on legislative matters, it is clear the Mississippi Republican remains angry with the man he describes in his book as his former 'protoge' ... As for Nickles, Lott now says he should have expected the GOP Whip to attempt to undermine his authority. Lott contends...that...

WASHINGTON - About 300 cats, nearly a third of them dead, were removed from an elderly woman’s Virginia home after neighbors complained of a stench coming from the house, police said on Tuesday. The house, less than a mile from late President George Washington’s historic Mount Vernon estate, looked neat from the outside with manicured lawns and bright flowers, but inside it was overflowing with wild cats, feces and urine. “Cats were coming out of the cabinets and drawers and were inside the walls. There were hundreds of them,” Fairfax County Police officer Richard Henry told Reuters. He said animal...

A prominent national Islamic Civil Rights Advocacy Group called today on the Bush Administration to remove an Amercian official supervising the hiring of translators in Iraq because of offensive Anti-Arab remarks he made to an Independent Televison News Reporter.The Washington based Council on Islamic Relations quoted an ITN report broacast yesterday on the PBS Newshour with Jim Lehrer in which a hiring administrator, after slamming the door in the face of an Iraqi applicant said, 'Guiding these local Arabs is like herding cats..herding cats into closets..except the cats don't complain as much.''If our goal is to win the hearts and...
