		<description>JM,

Trump gets the credit because these businesses are doing these things because Trump is the more business friendly then odumbo ever was.

You can bet that if Hillary was elected these businesses would be running from the US as fast as possible. Therefore Trump gets the credit. I know that sucks for you but that is the way it is</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Fiat to invest $1 billion in Michigan, Ohio plants, create 2,000 jobs&lt;/i&gt;

Can somebody explain to Michale that these types of business decisions are made over months, if not quarters. The decision was probably made sometime in Q2 and the details were worked out before a public announcement was made.

I&#039;ve never heard of a $1B business decision conceived and decided in the timeframe since Putin stole the election.</description>

EXACTLY. So ACTUALLY the CREDIT for those jobs should be going to OBAMA, since they are being created WHILE HE IS STILL PRESIDENT. TRUMP has NOTHING to do with them!</description>

Holy Crap!!!!

Trump is creating jobs left and right!!!!  

And he ain&#039;t even the President yet!!!

From all the available facts, it looks like the American people made the right choice in electing Trump....

It&#039;s impossible to create a plausible scenario where a President Elect Hillary would have brought all these jobs to the US......

GO TRUMP!!!   :D</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt; Especially for someone who supposedly prides himself with not being loyal to either party&#039;s politics.

That&#039;s just it...  I am *NOT* loyal to any Party politics.  I am loyal to Trump...  

And until such time as Trump gives me a GOOD solid and LOGICAL reason NOT to be loyal, I will continue to be loyal to Trump...

Pretend Trump is Obama and you should understand EXACTLY where I am coming from.....  :D

&lt;B&gt;U.S. says Navy ship fired warning shots at Iranian vessels&lt;/B&gt;

Looks like our President has FINALLY grown a set of brass ones...

Has Trump taken over as President while I was off the grid??   :D</description>

		<description>Greetings from Roatan, Honduras...  :D

&lt;I&gt;It is hilarious to see Trump trying to legitimize his presidency - &lt;/I&gt;

Trump doesn&#039;t have to *TRY* and legitimize his Presidency...

He *IS* the legitimate President Of The United States..

No, what *IS* hilarious is to see the Left Wingery bend over backward, sideways and inside out to try and DE-legitimize Trump&#039;s presidency...

Actions, I am constrained to point are, are the EXACTS actions ya&#039;all castigated the Republicans for CONSTANTLY when they did it to Obama...

WHO could have possibly predicted that the Left Wingery would act *EXACTLY* as they accused the Right Wingery of acting..  :D

&lt;B&gt;&quot;I&#039;ll give three guesses, but yer only going to need one.&quot;&lt;/B&gt;
-Chick, ARMAGEDDON  

:D

Liz,

&lt;I&gt;I just watched Eye In The Sky ...

There has to be a better way.&lt;/I&gt;

When ya find it, let us know...  Unfortunately, when dealing with the dregs of civilized society, one will have to get one&#039;s hands dirty...

If I recall correctly, that was Alan Rickman&#039;s last role before he died..

He will be missed..

Listen,

How *exactly* did the Russians &quot;hack&quot; the election??

Did they change a SINGLE vote??   NO, they did not..

The *ONLY* thing the Russians did (if they even did that) was release FACTUAL information about the Democratic Party...

So, you tell me..  How is that &quot;hacking&quot;??

All of the Russian Hack hysteria is just the Left Wingery&#039;s version of the Birther hysteria...

That&#039;s all it is...</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;  A report from the Obama administration states that there was absolutely NO EVIDENCE that any of the emails released were fake or forged...

So, we have the Obama Administration stating for the record that the Russians DID NOT HACK the election.. &lt;/i&gt;

That Russia did not alter the private emails it released in no way means that Russia DID NOT HACK the election!   

This is where you disappoint me so much, Michale: 

You  know good and well that this wasn&#039;t the sole basis for the charges against Russian interference in our election, yet you would rather play ignorant just to try to prove some point that no one believes is true.   Your willingness to support a man that refuses to put his business holdings into a blind trust, especially since he refused to release his tax returns and his own son told reporters that more than half of their funding for recent projects have come from Russian backers, is surprising.  Especially for someone who supposedly prides himself with not being loyal to either party&#039;s politics.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The GOP has a good plan to replace TrainWreckCare...&lt;/i&gt;

What are they then, lazy? Why are there no draft bills to be seen? What are the GoP scared of?

It is hilarious to see Trump trying to legitimize his presidency - most people voted for Hillary and he got illegal help from his owners in Russia.

Nobody, including Trump, really believes he is our elected President any longer.</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;I see the media are still spouting the republican con of repeal and replace even though it should be obvious to all and sundry that, after almost seven years, republicans still don&#039;t have any kind of a replacement plan, not even so much as the bare outline of a plan.&lt;/I&gt;

Sorry, MS...  That dog doesn&#039;t hunt any more..

The GOP has a good plan to replace TrainWreckCare...

The Left just doesn&#039;t like it because it totally demolishes The Messiah&#039;s legacy...

But, in all honesty, the American people just did that... In spades..  :D</description>

		<description>Free college tuition was &lt;b&gt;not&lt;/b&gt; Bernie Sanders&#039; idea. Elizabeth Warren was campaigning on this idea in 2014, long before Sanders took it up. But then Sanders has been fashioned by his disciples into some kind of god-like savior while Warren is just a woman on the losers&#039; side.

Even congressional republicans, as monstrous a bunch of callous bastards as ever existed, are more honest than the media in referring to their new plan as &quot;delay&quot;, as in &quot;repeal and delay&quot;. Of course &quot;delay&quot; is poli-speak for: &quot;after total repeal, never mention the subject again and the plebs will just forget about it&quot;.</description>

		<description>Oh....

Remember when Hillary and the Democrats claimed that the Russians were forging emails and such??

A report from the Obama administration states that there was absolutely NO EVIDENCE that any of the emails released were fake or forged...

So, we have the Obama Administration stating for the record that the Russians DID NOT HACK the election.. And we have the Obama Administration stating for the record that Hillary et al were lying when they claimed that the emails were forged...

Like I said...  Russian Election Hack = The Left Wingery&#039;s Birther movement...

A huge nothing-burger with onions and pickles...</description>

		<description>Nothing about the Facebook torture and attack committed by Hillary supporters???

Surely those Hillary supporters would deserve at least an honorable mention as the Most Disappointing Democrats Of The Week, eh???  

I&#039;m just sayin&#039;...

As previously mentioned, I will be likely on hiatus for the next 7-10 days...  Our annual family cruise kicks off today...  :D  So ya&#039;all will be able to rant and rave about Trump and the GOP without me breathing down yer backs, correcting all the hysteria with the FACTS...

So, have a ball..  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;1. The Republican Party has lost the support of the majority of educated, reality-based voters&lt;/I&gt;

You mean the elitists who care about Party before country???

You mean the &quot;reality-based&quot; voters who swear up and down that Hillary one the election??

Are THOSE the people that you say the GOP lost the support of??

Apparently, their votes aren&#039;t really needed, eh??  :D

Maybe THOSE people are the basket of deplorables, eh??  :D</description>

		<description>&lt;I&gt;Phase 1: Collect underpants

Phase 2: ?

Phase 3: Profit&lt;/I&gt;

As opposed to:

&lt;B&gt;PHASE 1: Coronate Hillary Clinton as Democratic Party Candidate

PHASE 2:  ???

PHASE 3:  Take the White House and the Senate and the House&lt;/B&gt;

:D

&lt;I&gt;In the midst of all these fantasies, former House member Jim McDermott wrote an excellent article which is well worth reading because it contains some hard, cold facts. Washington state passed some health industry reforms when Democrats had control. Republicans then took over and attempted to do precisely what Trump now seems to want to do: keep all the goodies in the new law, but scrap all the things Republicans don&#039;t like (like a mandate to insure the widest possible insurance pool). The result was, predictably, a disaster. McDermott describes it as a &quot;death spiral,&quot; in fact. As we said, anyone who wants to see actual evidence of the impending &quot;repeal Obamacare -- the parts we don&#039;t like, at least&quot; trainwreck&lt;/I&gt;

Totally different than what&#039;s happening now..

TrainWreckCare is ALREADY in a death spiral...  

Let me make it real short and real sweet..

ObamaCare is not viable...  PERIOD....

The Democrats scrooed the pooch with this abomination...

What part of that is unclear??

&lt;I&gt;And finally, Obama&#039;s last jobs report came out, showing more jobs added, and higher wages -- good news all around. Unemployment is still well below five percent. This puts the capstone on Obama&#039;s jobs legacy, which has now seen 75 straight months of job growth -- the best run this country has had since 1939, in fact. Donald Trump has reportedly promised he&#039;ll be adding 650,000 jobs per month, which is just not going to happen any time soon, folks. But no matter what does happen, it is incontrovertible that Obama is turning over an economy that is good and getting better to Trump.&lt;/I&gt;

The good news on the jobs has happened IN SPITE of Obama, not BECAUSE of Obama..

The BAD news on the jobs??  Almost 100 million Americans have left the job force.. That&#039;s up 18% since Obama and the Democrats took over.. 

THAT is on Obama...

&lt;I&gt;The new Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer, deserves at least an Honorable Mention this week, for doing such a good job coming out of the gate. Every time I&#039;ve seen him on television, he&#039;s vowing to fight for what Democrats believe, which is a good sign. &lt;/I&gt;

Isn&#039;t that the same Chuck Schumer who ya&#039;all lambasted because he lambasted TrainWreckCare???  :D

&lt;I&gt;Think about it -- it has been almost seven years since the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act passed. In all that time, Republicans have not held one single floor vote in either house of Congress on a replacement plan. &lt;/I&gt;

Why bother??  They knew that Obama would veto it so it would have been a waste of time...

Like I said.. It&#039;s real simple..

CrapCare is NOT viable....

For the good of the country, it must be repealed and replaced...

Democrats STILL remember the good of the country, right??</description>

		<description>This Republican stint in control is going to prove one new and one repeated point:

1. The Republican Party has lost the support of the majority of educated, reality-based voters

2. The Republican Party&#039;s claims to be deficit hawks fails again (Reagan, Bush 2) and it takes a Democrat (Clinton, Obama) to come in and clean up the mess

Let&#039;s hope it is two steps forward with Obama and only one step back with Trump.</description>

		<description>&quot;we didn&#039;t notice any disappointing Democrats in the past few weeks&quot;

I believe that the key to not being disappointed is setting your expectations pretty low. They rarely disappoint me.
