I watched the bulk of the impeachment hearing in the House Judiciary Committee and came to a conclusion very quickly. It was one sided and slanted towards favoring those that support impeachment. The witness list was stacked with three law professors who have openly stated they believe the President should be impeached and… Continue reading Political Theater at the Highest Order
For the past three years we have heard President Donald Trump complain about how the media treats him unfairly. I think some of his criticism is unwarranted and he uses this complaint to fire up his base. But overall the media has treated both him and his administration unfairly. We all remember some of the… Continue reading FAKE NEWS OR REAL NEWS: HARD TO TELL THESE DAYS
I have not written anything in this blog for over a week because I have been watching the hearings in the House and trying to make some sense out of what the witnesses have said. What it comes down to is simple. The career service people in the State Department all seem to believe that… Continue reading Impeachment and a Couple of Other Things
As we approach the end of the year, we will soon be into the actual election year of 2020. Presidential politics are ramping up and we have already seen some of the Democrat pretenders drop by the wayside. As we head into 2020, I see a difficult situation developing. If you look at the state of… Continue reading Presidential Politics: 2020
Earlier this month I was back in Washington DC to play in a charity golf event at my former golf club, The Robert Trent Jones Golf Club. At the dinner, on Saturday night former President Barrack Obama (a member of the club) and Tony Kornheiser sat down and had a conversation for those in attendance.… Continue reading Civility in Society
The number one issue in the 2020 Presidential campaign is health care. This has been an ongoing debate for many years. Liberals want to move to a universal health care system funded and run by the federal government. This is consistent with their belief that the government can do things better than the private sector… Continue reading Medicare for All and Increased Taxes for All As Well
I think it would be fair to say that Hillary Clinton did not expect to lose the Presidential race in 2016 and was shocked as the numbers came in that November night. From a close friend of mine she refused to accept that results and became unmanageable in the hotel suite. The report given to… Continue reading Hillary Clinton on Russian Conspiracies and Her Own Delusions
The Democrat candidates for President took the stage in Ohio last night and all 12 of them had hopes of impressing voters enough to capture the nomination for President. Admittedly some of them are just along for the ride and have no hope of achieving that goal. This race has come down to three leading… Continue reading Democrat’s Debating Each Other and Saying Nothing
Colin Kaepernick This week Colin Kaepernick inserted himself into the news once again by complaining that he is not being given a chance to compete in the NFL and according to his agent it is all because of his controversial political views. I will admit that I think there is a grain of truth in… Continue reading Week at a Glance
In my opinion, President Trump has completely mishandled a couple of important things in the past week. First, the impeachment effort by the Democrats. He has come out swinging when he should have remained quiet and allowed surrogates to carry the fight. The Democrats in the House are playing political games with this issue and… Continue reading Two Bad Decisions By President Trump
