Just yesterday I had a conversation with my neighbor about the violent changes occurring in Alaska as of late. It saddens me. I'm not sure why the pace of violence has picked up but it is certainly not good to see. People missing....being shot....found in parks and hotels, dead......
Are we catching up to the lower 48? Has there been an influx of "bad actors?" Or is it the same people in different times? Our country appears to be tweaking. :( | 0 | en |
As to you abusive nature i will let others make up their own minds after reading what you have writen on the talk page of the Cornish people page. So , aside from your insults, are you saying that 50 million people in England are English? The total population of England is English? Do you think it OK to use the total population of England as the indicator for the numbers of English in England. If that is the case then for the Cornish people page the total population of Cornwall should be used for the numbers of Cornish?. Secondly it is not my claim that there are 250,000 Cornish people so what are you going on about? All i have added of late is that a recent survey found that 44% of the Cornish populace thought themselves Cornish rather than British or English. according to a recent Morgan Stanley Bank survey, 44 per cent of the inhabitants of Cornwall believe themselves to be Cornish rather than British or English Here are some more links so you can find out a bit more about what you are trying to comment on. In Cornwall, 44% of those asked said they felt Cornish, rather than English or British.

IRT Thomas E. Stuart: Your hypocritical double standard is waving in the breeze. Trump and his ilk (to use one of your favorite terms) questioned President Obama's legitimacy for eight years but now, despite mounting evidence that Trump owes his presidency to Russian interference in the election, you imply that all Americans owe him unquestioning loyalty, trust, and respect.

Honestly, Ed, I can't see us going the route of birth control either, but all options should be on the table. Some California foothill counties have used birth control, but they also have predators, including mountain lion and bear, to help keep a balance, as well as active hunting clubs and a long deer hunting season. We are in a unique situation with a small, restricted land mass, no natural predators (unless you count cars), and a very liberal population. So I have to support whatever works and whatever our citizenry will allow. | 0 | en |
Neo-Conservatism is a spent force. Where it has been tried without restrictions it has been an outright failure. See Kansas. Where it has been grafted onto populism it has been an embarrassment. See the Trump White House. The theory behind neo-conservatism can't survive in the 21th century with the reality of climate change, the Internet, and the obvious concentration of capital.
Andrew Scheer was the last possible choice in a field of 14. His victory was razor thin. And he doesn't want to tell you who he is or what he stands for. He just smiles and chuckles. How is that different from his characterization of Trudeau? Surface affability vs surface glitz. Short of a major scandal or world crisis, Scheer will be Leader of the Opposition for the next six or seven years. He'll never be PM.

I haven’t been here in a while. It feels weird to be sat at my desk again typing and hoping that maybe someone finds me interesting enough to read whatever drivel spills out of my messy brain.
Let’s start with why I stopped blogging:
Basically I didn’t have the time. I stopped watching youtube and all the things i used to do purely because I didn’t have the time. I started pantomime rehearsals, I swapped friend groups and started going to parties and stuff and exam stress set in and I found it hard to make time for this any more.
With blogging however, it was always a little more. It was important for me. It was helpful. This site is like a support network and writing was a release. There were people here who were in the same position as me and it was nice to talk to them. And I have missed that. I have also missed writing. I stopped because I didn’t feel I was any good at it. In school I didn’t like English so I thought I was a useless writer. I also didn’t need the release so much anymore. I started to get better. I pulled myself up. I got more confident and for a while I had to be selfish and focus on me. It was a delicate time. I knew how easy it would be for me to fall back and lose my confidence and I had to change what I surrounded myself with. No YouTube no WordPress. I had to force myself to go outside.
Now let’s do why I’m back:
Quite simply because I enjoy being here (virtually). Recently I’ve been getting a lot of comments on how much people have enjoyed my last few posts (specifically the running one – yes I get it, we like to laugh at my expense, I’m hilarious, I’m north yorkshire’s answer to Miranda) and that’s kind of encouraged me to pursue my writing – thank you kind people for your encouraging words on how funny it is when I make a fool of myself in public. Also, in my mock exams I did really well in English. Really well, and I was really fucking proud, because I thought it was like my second weakest subject. I’ve kind of got to the point where I don’t really give a shit about what people have to say about me. I used to care so much when the “popular” girls took the piss out of me for having a blog and I used to let it get to me. Now, with only 4 months left at school with those bitches I don’t care what they say because I know whatever I set my mind to, I will succeed. And to quote Taylor Swift “I’m just gonna shake it off”
Mint. Covered the necessary. Be back soon to update y’all on the recent occurrences in my life because right now I’m sat in the pitch black of my room, only illuminated by my laptop screen when I should really be asleep…
I’m praying this snow will lay and get thicker so I don’t have to go into school tomorrow and explain to my English teacher who hates my guts why I haven’t done her homework that was due in today and tell my maths teacher that I didn’t do her homework because she set it yesterday, I didn’t have the desire nor the time to do it, and that the main reason I haven’t done it is because she’s an incompetent fool who I don’t have the time of day for. | 1 | en |

"The Ken Burns series is too long to deliver a forceful message. This excellent column does it."
.
Yes, this is one of the author's better columns.
.
The Ken Burns/Lynn Novick series is outstanding. It packs a very powerful punch. It misses very few points. For the most part, their editorial priorities were right on.
.
It is unflinching.
Painful to watch:
.
America demands an accounting of 2800 MIAs, when NV has 300,000 MIAs.
.
Johnson, Nixon, et al., are heard on tape, clearly lying. Thousands died because of those lies.
.
A former head of the USAF admits the US was fighting on the wrong side. Ouch.
.
An NVA woman soldier calmly tells how all of her 8 brothers and 2 sons were killed. Heartbreaking.
.
It is not white-washed. Nothing reflects well on US gov't: Deceit. Venality. Cynicism. Betrayal.
.
It is surprising the film has been shown on US TV. PBS, of course. Even 40 years later, no commercial network would have dared.
.
An unsparing, bravely presented, cathartic, film. | 0 | en |

Just wait until Trump's group presents their "findings of voter fraud" (because you know that's a foregone conclusion in their minds), they'll be pointing out whichever state as "a problem" and then we'll really see some anger from the states back at him.
Trump & friends seem to like to deflect through a bent mirror, every time a problem for them comes up, they're innocent but that other guy did something kind of like it: Russian collusion?

No it's not. It is for the people to be allowed to worship without government oppressing the pastors by making them preach what the government wants him to, which is exactly what is happening now. Churches file 501c3 tax exempt status making them a charity and they don't have to pay i.r.s. taxes. They then in turn can give their church members a receipt for their tithes so they can get it back on their taxes and in turn the government gets to dictate the sermons that are to be preached. The pastors of these 501c3 churches are then stuck and can't be shepherds of their flocks and ring the bell when wolves are attacking. They then have become hirelings and allow their sheep to be devoured by the wolves. The Pastors that once stood behind the pulpits are no more. They are hirelings and are leading their flock to the slaughter. The whole Bible is political and as it says..Where God is there is Liberty. | 0 | en |

One of the reasons your countless opinion pieces did not influence the outcome of this debate is your refusal to tell the truth about how Alaska is giving away its oil. People know propaganda when they read it. Here is an example of your propaganda, Dermot: "...the clamor to squeeze more dollars from oil..." Your characterization is baloney- as if there is barely an extra cent to spare...
If you'd written that we need to stop giving away our oil tax-free, your (baseless) arguments to reduce Alaskans' dividends lose sway.
If we'd stop giving away the oil, and end the corporate welfare to Big Oil, our deficit (if any) would be easily taken care of by reserve accounts.
But your long term goal- for more than 20 years- is to see dividend checks confiscated.
Why? Maybe you still hold a grudge that you were not able to get Dividends taken from Alaskans the last time we had this fight, in 1999.
How dare those 83% of Alaskans who defied the liberal elite in taking the PFD! | 0 | en |

San Diego Democrats: Impeach Bush
The San Diego County Democratic Party Central Committee passed a resolution calling for the impeachment of President Bush, Vice President Cheney and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld for "high crimes and misdemeanors."
The committee, in a vote Tuesday, asks Congress to immediately begin impeachment proceedings based on "evidence" that the administration lied to the American people and created a false justification for going to war in Iraq.
The resolution refers to the so-called Downing Street Memo – official minutes of a meeting between British Prime Minister Tony Blair and members of the Bush administration – and "new leaks of British documents."
The resolution says the Downing Street Memo "reveals that Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld began planning and executing war on Iraq before seeking Congressional and U.N. approval" and fixed intelligence and facts around the policy "with full knowledge that no evidence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq had been found."
The "new leaks of British documents," the resolution says, "provide further mounting evidence that the Administration lied or misled about 'mushroom clouds,' 'connections to 9-11,' and 'war as a last resort' as they sought United Nations, congressional and public approvals."
The committee also calls on the California Democratic Central Committee to adopt the resolution.
A local blogger, who first publicized the resolution, commented: "In the 2004 Presidential Election, Bush beat Kerry in San Diego County by six percentage points. Regardless of how they feel about the Iraq War, local Democrats should be working on outreach, not pushing away potential crossover voters. Dumb, dumb, dumb."
In June, Democratic members of Congress held an unofficial hearing on Capitol Hill to draw attention to the memos. In a jammed room in the basement of the Capitol, Representative John Conyers Jr., the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, presided as witnesses asserted the documents vindicated their view that Bush made the decision to topple former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein long before he has admitted.
There were calls for impeachment at the hearing.
The White House maintains that Bush decided to invade Iraq only after Secretary of State Colin Powell made the administration's case in a lengthy presentation to the U.N. Security Council on Feb. 5, 2003. His argument focused on intelligence demonstrating that Iraq had illicit weapons.
As WorldNetDaily reported, many of the same weblogs that successfully challenged Dan Rather's documents questioned whether the Downing Street memos are for real.
The controversy seems to be reaching a fever pitch when Times of London reporter Michael Smith admitted the memos he used in his stories are not originals, but copies he retyped.
"Until tonight ... no one questioned the authenticity of the documents provided by the Times of London," said CaptainsQuartersBlog, one of the sites behind the Rather scandal. "That has now changed, as Times reporter Michael Smith admitted that the memos he used are not originals, but retyped copies.
The CaptainsQuartersBlog said that even if the memos could be authenticated, "they're still meaningless." That they simply do not contain any smoking-gun evidence of lies by the Bush administration or the British government of Tony Blair.
The Prime Minister has confirmed the authenticity of a Downing Street memo in which Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of MI6, tells Mr Blair that the Bush administration was "fixing" the intelligence and facts about Saddam Hussein's regime to back up a decision that had been taken to invade Iraq as early as July 2002.
June 15 - Two senior British government officials today acknowledged as authentic a series of 2002 pre-Iraq war memos stating that Saddam Hussein's nuclear weapons program was "effectively frozen" and that there was "no recent evidence" of Iraqi ties to international terrorism—private conclusions that contradicted two key pillars of the Bush administration's public case for the invasion in March 2003.
You know, this is another attempt to change the subject and discredit the people in this country who want to know the truth. Life must be getting uncomfortable indeed for the cabal if they're scrambling this hard.
The Prime Minister has confirmed the authenticity of a Downing Street memo in which Sir Richard Dearlove, the former head of MI6, tells Mr Blair that the Bush administration was "fixing" the intelligence and facts about Saddam Hussein’s regime to back up a decision that had been taken to invade Iraq as early as July 2002.
The Downing Street memo which was leaked to the Sunday Times newspaper in May 2005 has become a critical issue in the US. Senators Kennedy and Kerry have joined the escalating debate by writing to the President asking whether or not the memo was authentic and accurate. Downing Street has previously refused to comment on the memo’s authenticity, but challenged for the first time on the floor of the House of Commons the Prime Minister has finally confirmed its authenticity.
Speaking after Prime Minister’s Questions, Adam Price MP said:
"The confirmation that the memo is authentic will cause ripples throughout the United States where 122 Members of the US Congress have written to the President asking if Sir Richard Dearlove’s statement in the memo, that ’the intelligence and the facts are being fixed around the policy’ is correct.
Also, see:
Cover story: The road to war
Robin Cook, the former foreign secretary, is publishing the diary he kept as a cabinet minister while Tony Blair prepared to lead Britain to war in Iraq. In a devastating revelation, the prime minister's real views on Saddam's weapons are exposed

The more discredited Bush and his cronies become the sooner we will see a mass movement against their policies. While there will always be some who live in NEVER-Never Land, Bush is paying a price with a drop in his approval ratings and even more important, his creditability!

The minute the decline of Rove began more than half America {or more now} asked, “Well, how are they going to play it to get out of this? Less people are buying the Bush and Republican tripe nowadays! More are noticing there are just too many lies and scandals that one Administration can cover-up without sooner or later questioning the veracity of everything the Bush regime does or says.

Anybody who pretends that the immigration of old is exactly the same as the "new" is wrong to do so, Doc. No arguments.
Proportionally, against our present population, Canada accepts fewer full-time immigrants than in many periods of the past. 1911: accepted 400,000. Just few years before, over a million in a five year stretch. The 1911 number represented about 5.5% of our 7 million people. Today, 350,000 immigrants represent about 1%. Of THAT number, likely 10% is Muslim. I just can't get worked up about it. Okay, let's do what some posters do: dump another 300,000 "part-timers" in with that 350,000--the 10 year visa folks who must live here just half a year annually. Still less than 2% additional population.

Here's a BIG Thank You to the Washington Examiner for publishing this great article with so many actual facts about Right-To-Work laws. Forced Unionism has become a major funding source for political activities in our USA, with most of it going toward progressive/socialist issues and/or candidates even though that is against the law.

Dr Pepper Test Markets Manly Diet Soda
Across the state, Dr Pepper's trying to appeal to men who enjoy diet soda but hate how drinking it makes them look oh so very girly. The Kansas City Star reports that the company's test marketing their new product, Dr Pepper 10 to the beef-loving cowboys in Kansas City.
The newspaper says, "According to the company, Dr Pepper Ten was developed with a 'one-of-a-kind, proprietary sweetener technology to deliver the taste experience of regular with just 10 bold calories'"
Pitch Weekly
Even the calories are bold!
Because if you're going to endanger your masculinity with diet soda, those calories damn well better be bold! Not like those frou-frou calories in that sissy-ass ten calorie version of Vitamin Water.
"Dave Fleming, spokesman for the company in Plano, Texas, said that though many people liked the taste of diet soda, research showed some men thought they were giving something up when they drank a diet product."
Yeah. Their testicles.
It's a dilemma as old as saccharine itself - how to drink diet soda without turning into a total girl. Here's a look at what soda companies have tried in the past to get manly-men to drink girly diet drinks.
During the 2009 Superbowl we met the Pepsi Max men, who would rather get electrocuted, have bowling balls dropped on their heads, and nearly take a projectile 2-by-4 up the ass than suffer diet soda.
Fear not, Mountain Dew lovers! The diet version is just as intense and surprising as that peace-brokering puss Abe Lincoln turning into a pro wrestler.

It's noon-hour in Eastern Canada, and I'm the second commenter on this terrific story. Where are all the moaners and groaners who say things like "These coddled, whining milennials..." etc.? Where are all the angry, frustrated milennials who blame everyone (that guy in Ottawa, the boomers, etc., etc) for their unemployed or underemployed status? I'd love to see "Hey, great story...thanks for the tips. Maybe I'll do likewise..." Hunch we won't see any of them, unless one or two are goaded by my comments.
This guy's great. " “Most mines have an end. I don’t know whether I’ll last to the end or not.” Thinking ahead. Of course, that's why he's making over $100,000 a year--with an employer who actually feeds him, too, and zips him in and out of civilization. Wow.
So much for, "Well, my degree isn't worth anything." Mining isn't exactly the leading economic engine of this country, either. No matter: he's making his degree pay wonderfully. Read and learn, folks. | 0 | en |

I admit I am not a baseball fanatic and my observations are worth what they are worth. I was swept up in Blue Jay fever 2 years ago as they came painfully close to winning it all. Last year although they scraped into the playoffs they were clearly a team in decline. In the off season management did nothing but stick with basically the same cast, hoping that they might have one last gasp. The results this year are clear. The players are old in baseball terms and simply cannot run or hit. You can't coach or change this basic fact. This team in my opinion is destined for last in their division and may end up with the worst record in the American league. The really discouraging fact is that there is no simple solution as the team is saddled with expensive long term contracts for aging players who won't get better, only worse. I agree with other blogs that this is going to be a long term drought lasting many years for this team. Management has no one to blame but themselves. | 0 | en |
"Although the masters make the rules
For the wise men and the fools
I got nothing ma, to live up to
For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Do what they do just to be nothing more than something they invest in
While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say "God bless him"
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole that he's in
But I mean no harm nor put fault
On anyone that lives in a vault
But it's alright ma, if I can't please him
Old lady judges watch people in pairs..."

Can get monthly costs (after mortgage and savings which will not be there post-retirement) down to about $3k by cutting cell and transport bills in half, and cutting some from vacation and dining. Would still have a more-than-decent standard of living. This will help raise savings by age 65 closer to $300k. So then, $15k per year from government programs, say $12k from income on savings and slow partial drawdown. . . then work a few hours per week at the garden centre or something to cover the gap. But do NOT buy a new car and especially do not finance one. Lightly used for cash. And sorry no cabin. But on the whole it's not a terrible picture.( Shame about the lost decade though--it was a good one for investors.) | 0 | en |

The actual murder rate for any community is always higher than the reported murder rate. This is because numbers of people who are murdered are not found to be classified as murder cases. Historically 70% of missing persons wanted to be missing - they left home for whatever reason. [This is not normally a crime]. The remaining 30% were murdered (eventually - sometimes not immediately). If one adds this uncounted number, the murder rate for most places is significantly higher - on the order of 500% - as the official rate indicates. It is, however, more a more stable indication than actual murder rate is when the number of murders is small, as it is in Anchorage. The overall murder rate (when any reasonable proportion of missing is included) appears to be fairly stable or in a slow decline. | 0 | en |
why are the public schools spending tax money advertising on all sorts of media, including movie theatres, newspapers, etc? my tax dollars at work? why are there so many schools? don't all of these boutique schools cost a ton to run? staff, buildings, utilities? | 0 | en |

One technical note, I remember watch Goldwater et al on color TV when they said that the GOP caucus would vote to convict and the Nixon should resign. The practice of showing black and white photos or tapes of events originally in color is disturbing to those of us who lived them. | 0 | en |

In paragraph 6, the judge accepts that she didn't know about consent laws until 2013, and in paragraph 15 he finds her to be a credible witness. You might speculate about what she knew about the law, but the judge didn't.
Regardless, I don't see how her not giving positive consent at other times was relevant to the matter at trial. The accused was charged with only one count of sexual assault. In that incident, it was not simply that she didn't say yes like at other times, but that she said no. And the fact that she said no yet he persisted in forcing himself on her does seem sufficient under sexual assault law to establish mens rea. | 0 | en |

Court decisions are unpredictable but it is unlikely on the basis of these decisions that Khadr's lawsuit requesting compensation would have been successful (and if it were the compensation would have been for breaches under Liberal regimes not Harper's since the Court explicitly stated requesting repatriation was a matter for the Executive to decide. Moreover the Court acknowledged Khadr's detention was under US control. Legal doctrine states that a plaintiff will be unable to pursue remedy if it arises in connection with his own illegal act. It's not unreasonable to contend that while Khadr's interrogations by CSIS may have violated the Charter these interrogations weren't unreasonable in the context in which they occured. It's a strong case that it would have been outrageous dereliction of duty if Canadian intelligence services had not questioned Mr Khadr following Al Quada's 9/11 attacks the biggest terrorist Act in history | 0 | en |

We (The United States) killed between 4 and 6 million people in SE Asia - most were civilians. We did this, in large, measure because the U.S. thought there were oil deposits there (troops were told something about commies). The group that showed the greatest disrespect towards veterans returning from Vietnam, BTW, was not on "the left" (many on "the left" were vets) but it was the folks running the VFW. And have you forgotten about the Vietnam Veterans Against the War? Those guys marched on the Republican Convention in Miami and, I think, are the folks that are really responsible for ending the war because they scared the heck out of the government. Quit trying to make up history and lying about what really happened Flyguy, if you're offended by the truth, you would do yourself well to read some history books. | 0 | en |

“Either you got a boob job or you are prego. Your boobs look HUGE!” Lynn announces. It was the end of a busy night at the restaurant where I waited tables and I was hunched over wiping down a shelf full of condiments. I took a deep breath, put down the mini mustard and say to Lynn, “Unless the University is giving out student vouchers for books and a boob job, I think it’s safe to say I must be prego.”
Lynn’s face turned the color of the ketchup I was wiping and I could have swept the floor with her jaw. Normally I would have fallen over laughing at her reaction, but I had only known that I was unexpectedly expecting a baby for a few weeks, and I was still busy picking my own jaw up off the floor.
That was four years and nine months ago, but lately I have noticed an influx of my friends and acquaintances who have come down with a case of the “Unexpected Pregnancy,” or they, like my friend Lynn said upon finding out I was pregnant, “got knocked the fu$k up!” I would like to point out that I am intentionally not using the expression “Unplanned Pregnancy.” I imagine that those are words that are most often whispered by not so well-meaning individuals around water coolers and hors d’oeuvre tables. “Unplanned Pregnancy,” is an expression that implies some sort inherent flaw in the mother to be, as if she was too callous and/or lazy to bother planning her pregnancy. I prefer the expression “Unexpected Pregnancy.” It sounds like a zany surprise, a last-minute house guest, or a freak weather pattern, and best of all there is no judgment. I mean, an unexpected house guest could happen to any one of us.
So now that we have the terminology down, I’d like to share a few of the things I learned during my own unexpected experience. Here is what NOT to do when you are expecting: please, please, please, for the love of God, do not go out and buy that book, “What to Expect When You’re Expecting.” If you insist on buying it please read it slowly and sparingly, not obsessively and compulsively, like I did. Let me be clear, this book could scare the maternity jeans off even the most courageous mom-to-be. “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” is a bunch of prego-elitist fear mongering and no matter how much I bitch, I’ll never get back that hours of sleep and general sense of peace I lost due to reading that book. The text will go into long detail about birth defects that effect something like one in every one million babies that are born under a full moon. Then it will heap on guilt and have you believe that if your baby did have this rarest of birth defects it would most certainly be your fault. Everything from Alka-Seltzer to zucchini is hypothesized to have some adverse effect to your unborn child. “What to Expect” will make you feel confused, paranoid and completely inadequate, and these are two areas in which pregnant women need no additional help.
Now, what TO do (the very, very abbreviated version): Go ahead and get over all your preconceived notions of what a mom should be, which are probably based on what your mom was (or was not) and what society says a mom should be. Guess what? This is your experience, your life, and you get to determine what kind of mom you want to be. You want to make casseroles in your Manolo Blahnik’s? You want to make organic casseroles in your Tom’s? You never want the word casserole mentioned again in your presence? Great, fine, whatever, because you are in charge now and this is one of the few perks of being an adult.
Immediately after this first step, proceed to step two: get over all your fears, insecurities and doubts about your ability as a mother. So, you’re unmarried? So, you don’t have the perfect job? So, none of your friends have kids? So you are afraid you don’t have a maternal bone in your body? So, your friends don’t quite trust you with their house plants let alone their children, your idea of cooking is a microwave chicken pot pie and you find the idea of breast-feeding simply repulsive? Well, this is my advice: So what? Really, it does not matter.
Line up all those feeling of inadequacy, look ‘em in their beady lil eyes and say, “So what?” Because, you are about to live outside of what you ever thought yourself capable of and you will look back and say to yourself, “damn, I did that!” Sounds deceptively simple, but make no mistake it’s actually one of the most difficult things I’ve ever faced. But it’s worth it.
Take it from me, an admittedly somewhat selfish girl who found herself: pregnant, unmarried, in a dead-end relationship, with no nearby family, a waitress, a college student, with little to no personal example of what being a good mother was, and with the strong suspicion that I had accumulated enough liquor over the years that milk would immediately curdle upon making contact with my breasts, it is very much worth it.
There is a sign above my son’s bed that says, “I am a Dream Come True.” The thing is, when he first came into my life I didn’t know this, but now I know there are no words that are truer.
And my last piece of advice is: what you should expect while you are unexpectedly expecting is that you will rise to the occasion of creating the perfect situation for you and your loved ones, as only you can do. | 1 | en |

in Barry Hertz's article a few days ago , there was this line....."Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin have long expressed mutual admiration for each other; several top Trump advisers and even his pick for secretary of state boast strong Moscow connections; and on, and on, and on until you want to vomit "
in today's review it's "It’s all spectacularly wrong-headed and smacks of the grossest kind of sexual politics. Our ostensible hero commits a monstrous act of selfishness, and we’re expected to shrug it off as the side-effects of puppy love and root for their romance? It’s Stockholm Syndrome masked as true love, and it is sickening."

Team Trump regards appropriately that Liberal Premier Wynne, Liberal Premier of Canada Trudeau and NDP leader Mulcair are one in the same. May not be fair but it is accurate. Wynne was busy in NY and Washington campaigning against Trump and calling him a racist. Mulcair slandered Trump a fascist. | 0 | en |
