    We are in mortal danger. Our feral government has gone from being a world champion prize fighter to a staggering, blind-drunk, morbidly obese buffoon.

  3. It will be interesting to see what Trump has to say about all of this tonight.

    1. Jon,
      Tonight? When?

      I may be too exhausted from today's nuclear imaging to watch/listen. **sigh**

    2. "When"

      I'm not sure. All I know is that that he is supposed to comment tonight. If he does I'm sure that FOX will, at least, have excerpts. Originally it was going to be about the Clintons but yesterday changed things.

    3. Jon,
      Probably on O'Reilly's show. Or Hannity's. The latter is past my bedtime.

    4. Fox just announced that it will be @ 2:30 PM EST. I somehow thought it was to be later. It was not indicated whether or not [they] will broadcast it but my guess is that they will; we'll see.

  4. SO WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?

    Nothing matters. No one cares. LOL.

    Do you know why Donald Trump is defying the odds, defying the predictions of doom and defeat? Yes, by the time this runs, the people gleefully thinking that the tempest in the margarita glass that is the whole Trump v. judge thing will FINALLY BRING DONALD DOWN! are going to realize, once again, that nothing matters.

    No one cares.

    LOL.

    Someone else came up with the “Nothing matters. LOL” formulation to describe this election year, and he deserves a nice shiny quarter, unless he is a Hillary Clinton fan in which case someone should smack him for supporting that cancer on our Constitution.

    And he can also thank himself and his idiot ilk for helping bring us to this point. Without the avalanche of distraction, hypocrisy, willful ignorance, and outright lies that the liberal elite and their human centipede press corps employed over the last few decades to ensure their corrupt, mouth-breathing, and/or perverted Democrat heroes are never held accountable, Trump would not be possible.

    We might still care about quaint things like character, competence, and not being a loathsome piece of human refuse.

    But we don’t. Not anymore.

    Hillary’s formulation of “Nothing matters, no one cares” is just a little different. For her, it’s “What difference, at this point, does it make?”

    You know, that comment she made when some congressmen – not including any Democrats – tried to hold her to account for getting four Americans killed and lying to not only their families’ faces but to our faces about it.

    And the people who aren’t in Hillary’s trick bag are supposed to care that Trump [comes off like] a jerk?

    They don’t, by and large. Sure, Trump makes what we conservatives all agree [I don't, it was about LA RAZA, stupid] is a distasteful comment insinuating that a federal judge’s rulings would be governed by an inherited characteristic, in this case his ethnicity. The mainstream media goes nuts at how horrible Trump is for assuming that an inherited characteristic might govern someone’s actions in public office.

    Then a day later, the media experiences a collective climax over a woman's being nominated [RAH RAH VAGINA POWER!], and they think it’s great because that inherited characteristic [i.e. TEATS 'n PUSSY] will govern her actions in public office.

    Programs! Programs! Can’t tell what’s good or bad today without a program! Actually, you can – if someone outside of the liberal elite does it, it’s bad.

    How dare Trump accept and employ the tribalist premise of modern liberalism!

    It’s not that those willing to vote for him agree with [all of] Trump’s babbling. It’s that they’re not going to jump on the feigned outrage bandwagon du jour anymore.

    You know, a lot of people are kind of stupid – look how many Bernie stickers you see, [and] even as the news is reporting that you have to bring your own Charmin to socialist Venezuela, – but, in general, people pick up on when they are being lied to.

    Is color/gender/ethnicity-blindness a thing, or is it not a thing?

    We’d like it to be a thing, but not just when it’s convenient for the commies.

  5. I notice this clown wants to focus the resources of the FBI on an honor killing. Any ask this blow hole why the thin resources would be well spent on something that occurs so infrequently?
    Or the workplace beheading. The perp wasn't even a Muslim. Just how does this jerk think that could have been prevented?

    The Tsarnaev's are case worth looking at. Their radicalization was known (the Cambridge mosque tipped law enforcement). Nothing was done locally or by the FBI. They weren't scrubbed. They weren't even noted.

    Whatever point he wants to make is lost.
    The article has all the smell of a jackass trying to make a name for himself so he can make a few bucks hiring himself out as an "expert" on Faux News and scamming the rubes.
    If it weren't such a serious topic this would be laughable.

    1. Duck,
      Your apologia on behalf of Islam is pathetic.

      The Tsarnaev's are case worth looking at. Their radicalization was known (the Cambridge mosque tipped law enforcement). Nothing was done locally or by the FBI. They weren't scrubbed. They weren't even noted.

      Because this administration is willfully blind to the threat. Islamophilia on crack cocaine.

    2. I hardly see how asking questions about how we determine who is a threat constitutes an apologia.

      I can only assume that "willfully blind" means he hasn't called for deporting all Muslims or in the case of citizens, jailing them.

    3. Speedy G,
      From the link you provided:

      In the first hours after the terrorist massacre in Orlando, we heard (repeatedly) that Omar Mateen had no criminal record. Well, he didn’t need one.

      He knew Marcus Robertson.

      Robertson is the guy no one’s ever heard of, but should know of. Former bodyguard to the infamous Blind Sheikh (’93 WTC attack), a suspect in more than one attack on cops, and a robber of banks to fund his proclivities, one of which is his online ministry, the “Fundamental Islamic Knowledge Seminary”, operating out of Orlando.

      Mateen was a slobbering follower of FIKS and Robertson. “It’s no coincidence that this happened in Orlando,” a law enforcement source told Fox News.


      What to say to that? My comment would be unprintable according to the parameters for commenting to this blog.

      **seething**

  6. Bears repeating:

    Islamophilic Obama is complicit in these deaths in Orlando. This blood is on his hands. Somebody sees something and says something -- but nothing is done because Obama's doctrine is that we must respect Islam.

    1. Bunkerville,
      Thank you for your support.

      I was able to see the screen while the scan was being run. Very obvious that the left kidney has significantly shrunk (atrophy of some kind). The left kidney perked up some when put under the strain of Lasix, so there is still a fair amount of function there.

  13. Miss Piss Pot regrets she's unable to lunch today, madam
    Miss PeePee regrets she's unable to lunch today
    She is sorry to be delayed
    But last evening down in Lover's Lane
    She strayed, madam
    Miss Piss Pot regrets he's unable to lunch today

    When she woke up and found
    That her dream of love was gone, madam
    She ran to the man who had led her so far astray
    And from under her velvet gown
    She drew a gun and shot her lover down, madam
    Miss Piss Pot regrets, she's unable to lunch today

    When the mob came and got her
    And dragged her from the jail, madam
    They strung her upon the old willow across the way
    And the moment before she died
    She lifted up her poor old head and cried, madam
    Miss Piss Pot regrets she's unable to lunch today

    Miss Piss Pot regrets she's unable to lunch today.

  16. As we expected they would, the stupidity has already begun from the mouths of Liberals like Obama, and Hillary and all the other one tick Poney anti-gun cretins; calling for more Bans on Guns and Assault Weapons and kiss the ass'a of these "Radical Muslims " . Yes, they have already gotten on their Soapboxes renewing their deranged anti-gun speechs and saying exactly what we thought that would be saying, instead of blaming these deranged Muslims who want to kill us more than anything else, they will put an end to Gun ownership if she is elected. Hillary Clinton, and Barrack Obsma have Increased the Muslim's Acts of Terrorism, by calling for the Ban on Guns and Weapons instead of blaming these Islamic Radicals.
    And the Killing not only goes on, but gets worse and will continue to worsen if she is elected.
    Muslim Sympathies is not the answer.

  17. ...and now we hear (no thanks to the US government or US media), the rest of the story...

    The ex-wife of Orlando mass killer Omar Mateen claimed Monday that she believed he was homosexual — as it was revealed that he frequented the gay nightclub where he staged the nation’s worst massacre in modern times.

    Sitora Yusufiy, who was married to Mateen in 2009 for three months, made the shocking claim on Brazilian television station SBT Brazil.

    Her fiancé, Marco Dias, speaking in Portuguese on her behalf, said that Yusufiy believed that Mateen had “gay tendencies” and that his father had called him gay in front of her. Dias also claimed “the FBI asked her not to tell this to the American media.”

  18. Trump has revoked the Washington Post's press credentials as well as The New York Times, BuzzFeed News, Telemundo, Politico and The Des Moines Register. He's a thin-skinned racist bully who cannot tolerate anything but adulation from the press or anyone else. This is the man the extremist in the TGOP are supporting for POTUS. Can you imagine what he'd be like as POTUS? What has happened to this country that such a thin-skinned racist bully could now be the leader of one of our major political parties? If you've surfed the usual far right blogs, you've seen that our fellow Americans support this stain on our American heritage, and they actually believe he's qualified to be POTUS. I don't understand my fellow Americans anymore.

  19. The ONLY difference between a moderate muslim and an extremist muslim is that the extremist muslim wants to saw your head off and the moderate muslim wants the extremest muslim to saw your head off. Liberals are a cancer to America..

  20. from a FOX News article:

    Republican Sen. Lindsay Graham said the FBI should use intelligence-gathering, rather than criminal, standards in these cases.

    "The FBI closed this file (Omar Mateen) because the Obama administration treats radical Islamic threats as common crimes. I am not trying to solve a crime. I am trying to prevent an attack and if we kept the file open and we saw what he was up to, I think we could have stopped it," Graham said, adding the focus would be on the suspect’s actions. "I am not suggesting he be followed because he is a Muslim. I am suggesting that he be followed because of what he did and what he said."

  21. Missing the warning signs...

    From Mateen's twin trips to Saudi Arabia raise suspicions:

    Orlando gunman Omar Mateen’s two trips to Saudi Arabia, one of which was a pricey package that included four-star accommodations and fancy meals, were highly unusual and may have been cover for terror training, according to experts.
