Trump...Russians...FBI...Media...Arghhhhhhhhh!

There's just so much that it's almost overwhelming.  I won't try and comment.  There is so much out there that you can find the perspective you believe if you try.  I'll just say this.  The reporting and reaction is beyond incompetent and hysterical.  So the WPO reports that anonymous sources say that President Trump divulged highly classified material to Russians during a meeting.  They we have the Secretary of State, the National Security Advisor, and the Deputy National Security Advisor refute and deny that it happened.  Three pretty good and credible sources.  And the media and the Dems act as if they never said a word.  It's truly beyond the pale.  And you've heard about the supposed Comey memo.  Let's see how that plays out but I'm more than confident that it's much ado about nothing.  But we'll see.  One thing is for sure, there are people in government and media who will stop at nothing to destroy President Trump.  If I were him, I'd be very tempted to fire every Obama holdover who has any sort of access.  That would be extreme and harsh and the government would be jolted, but something has to be done.

It just never stops!  How many people in the country would love to see this happen.  I know I do!


Well...Duh!

Sooner or later it was bound to happen!

The Latest Craze

Have you seen these things.  They are little gadgets that have ball bearings and can be spun all around.  Supposedly good for kids who are fidgeting.  I know about these because I've got Grandkids and they've got them.  The other craze is Slime.  It's homemade concoction that is sort of like silly putty in days of old.  On the one hand it's all pretty dumb.  But on the other...hell, it's just a craze!


A Basic Message

Sometimes being minimalist is good.  I'm assuming R.C. means Roman Catholic.  Either they are very serious about the use of the Parish's money and are trying to conserve funds by abbreviating...or they are just lazy.

Treason

Is this treason?  Sedition?  Seems like it to me.  First Amendment protections stop at the point of government overthrow.  Wonder if anyone in the FBI is checking this out?  Probably not.  The media will certainly not report on it.

Sorry...sometimes it's just too easy!

Asshole

I've never liked Steven Colbert.  I know, I know...I'm an old guy who just doesn't get or appreciate his humor.  Bullshit.  He's an asshole.  And he proved that he is an asshole last night.  His 12 minute monologue about President Trump was over-the-top shocking in it's insensitivity, ignorance, offensiveness, and being just plain ill-mannered.  He pulled no punches and gave it to President Trump with both barrels.  Of course, like a lot of ignorant and oh-so-smug liberals, he's is just so superior.  I guess I could dispute and defend, but why bother.  Like I said, this guy is an asshole.  If you haven't seen this piece of pornography, check it out here.


After suffering through this embarrassing rant, I got to thinking about a comparison to anything I'd ever seen in my entire life regarding someone in the public eye on a major network being quite so obnoxious and insulting to our President.  I even did some searching around the net to see if I could find anything.  Of course, Obama was handled with kid gloves so there was obviously nothing there.  But after finding some data on comedians or public figures taking on the President, nothing I could find even comes close.  Not by a mile.  This diatribe was by far the most over-the-top insult imaginable.

So then I got to wondering about the responsibility of CBS to at least say something.  Defend him or muzzle him or fire him or at least acknowledge the ugliness of it.  But...crickets.  I've watched the CBS news deteriorate over the last several months and guess I'm not really surprised, but this is really, really disappointing.  That a major network would allow such a specific, insulting, ugly rant against our President is pretty bad.  Oh, I get First Amendment rights and all that (even if some of our greatest Universities do not).  Sure, anyone has the right to say these things.  But decorum, decency, and sensitivity would cause most to refrain from such low-life behavior.  Everyone but the biggest assholes among us that is.

Finally, I get that people can't get over the election.   I get that a lot of people are pissed.  But at some point they have to get over it.  At some point, we have to be able to respect each other and try to move forward.  But with breathtaking public displays of disdain and contempt against the President, I don't really know how we do that.
