Especially if the Dems keep a majority in November or have Hillary as the next president, but I see both as highly doubtful given the present downward trend of Obama due to his failed policies, lies and deception.

That is my fear. I don't see how the Donkeys (sm) - me

could keep control of the Senate this year, but I also don't think the last election was valid. I'm just saying, there were so many instances of fraud and the deception of the WH about certain events that would keep them from winning. I don't put a thing past them, unfortunately, and if the Donkeys keep the Senate and then win in 2016, we are definitely doomed.

Just after I posted the above (sm) - me

I am questioning whether Donkeys is acceptable. I'm assuming that since I've seen it quite a bit today it is, but one never knows. If it's not, please delete my post, monitors, as I don't know how. I know Democrats don't like to be called Libs, so....who knows.

Good point. I'll edit mine. - TY.

The best way to avoid being a welfare state is - to stop exporting all the jobs.

That's what this administration wants-- for everybody to be on welfare and dependent on THEM. They don't like independent people because they think for themselves. If you are on the dole, you have to accept whatever they tell you. That equals more votes.

You hit it directly on the head! - sm

I heard this on the radio recently: Isn't it interesting how many Hollywood types are leaving the State of California because they don't like the high taxes? They are making less and less movies in California because of the costs involved. So all those bleeding hearts in Hollywood are cooking their own goose right about now. They make pots of money, but they don't want to "pay their fair share" as their supreme commander orders.

Betcha you can guess what state they moved to...I'll give you a hint - Truthhurts

America, all of America, needs to pay attention to this. - sm

As someone pointed out, this is already happening on a smaller scale in certain states. The handwriting is on the wall and we need to pay attention, but what do we do about it?

The dedicated Trumpettes are rationalizing Trump's tax evasion by saying Clinton used the same loophole to avoid paying tax. In fact, I have used the same loophole when I was an independent contractor. Now here is why it is not the same. Trumps tax loss claimed is over 1 THOUSAND 3 HUNDRED TIMES (1300 times) Clinton's tax loss. In other words, Clinton claimed 0.07% of Trumps loss. Trump paid NO taxes and probably did not for 18 years. In contrast the Clinton's pai ...

A poster below said, "Typical talkback. Let's talk about how things are improving." I thought I would take the liberty in moving it to a new post. For me personally, I can't see the improvment.

....since the Supreme Court gave corporations the same voice as individuals in supporting political candidates? I sense that that's made things worse during this campaign. I think these PACs and Super PACs are creating so much havoc, on both sides, and they're making politics even more confusing and muddled. It's awful when a PAC comes out with advertising that favors one candidate or the other, and people assume that the campaign itself put out the ad, bu ...

1. The entire DNC is being subsidized with a $10 million line of credit from Duke Energy. 2. The CEO of Duke Energy is one of Obama's biggest contributors - $tens of thousands. 3. Duke Energy has received over $200 million in stimulus money for "green jobs". So, while Elizabeth Warren was standing up on the podium whining about a "rigged economy", she was speaking over a microphone that was paid for with "rigging" of the first order. Good job, Dems!

I saw 3 different things this morning that I am puzzled. First, people having baby ultrasounds in their homes inviting all the family for an ultrasound party to let them be the first (along with the couple) to view the baby. People doing the ultrasounds do tell the gender of the baby and that again is not 100% sure each time, even for people who routinely do ultrasound in medical settings. The people doing not medical, say no diagnosis of any kind made but as we all know not every pregnancy is a ...

In Chappaqua NY, the snow lay deep around the Clinton mansion, but that didn't stop Bill from taking a stroll around the grounds. Suddenly, he stopped dead in his tracks. The Secret Service agent who was with him asked, "What is it, Mr. President?" Clinton's face was growing beet-red as he pointed a shaking finger at the ground. There, written in the snow in an unmistakable shade of yellow, were the words "Bill Clinton is a dirty pedophile." Clinton demanded that the per ...

As it happens, in recent weeks I was the target of a trolling campaign and saw exactly how it works. It started when an obscure website published a post titled “CNN host Fareed Zakaria calls for jihad rape of white women.” The story claimed that in my “private blog” I had urged the use of American women as “sex slaves” to depopulate the white race. The post further claimed that on my Twitter account, I had written the following line: “Every death of a white person brings tears of j ...

I keep thinking there is hope. After filing for unemployment, I thought I would get my DD pay today (yes I did the waiting week). Now I find out it could be TEN DAYS before I get my pay. I cannot make my children wait 10 days to eat. I have been to the food pantry here and have no way to get other food. I know I will be kicked out of my house very soon. Anyway, I really desperately need prayers. I guess I do not know why I keep asking for prayers because ...

Sad to say that I end up cooking the same five or six things every week. I think my taste buds have atrophied. Anyone have any ideas for something really good (also fairly fast and easy to make)?

I just don't worry. How about you? I have such strong faith that God will provide. I haven't seen any promise He's made broken. This goes with following Jesus in a personal obedient life, which has been such a peaceful, wonderful life. What freedom there is! I don't have to worry anymore. I used to be a major worry wart, stressing out all the time when things got tough, so this is a nice change. I've seen Him work in His mysterious ways when things were fina ...

Some of you may remember my posting last fall about my daughter who went away to college only to break her arm and wind up with three roommates who did nothing but party. All she wanted was to go to college and study anthropology. Her quad-mates all turned out to be drunks, as well as the guys in the room across the hall. Within three weeks of starting school she had broken her arm. She was quite literally totally alone, but tried to stick it out rather than change ...

I've been thinking about how Americans of good will come together and forget all their arguments, at important times and over certain topics. We don't tolerate child abuse, for example. Most of us get nauseated when we hear skin head rhetoric, LOL, and we want clean water. There are probably lots more, but I just happen to be thinking about those today. It's a good feeling when we (most of us) come together for good things. ...

1. The deficit has grown mostly because of the recession. (The deficit has ballooned not because of specific spending measures, but because of the recession. The deficit more than doubled between 2008 and 2009 as the economy was in free fall and laid-off workers paid less in taxes and needed more benefits. The deficit then shrank in 2010 and 2011.) 2. The stimulus cost much less than Bush's wars and tax cuts. (Republicans frequently have blamed the $787 billio ...
