I am a supporter of drug law reform and a supporter of legalizing cannabis, medicinal and recreational. Below is the questions you sent me and my answers to them.
1) Will you vote for or sponsor legislation to allow the tax-free medicinal use of cannabis upon the recommendation of a physician?
I will. Medicinal use of cannabis products constitutes a safer and less expensive form of pain medication on top of the other study supported uses of cannabis. This in turn has the possibility to lower the chance of addiction to opiate pan medication which is a growing problem in Wisconsin.
2) Will you vote for or sponsor legislation to create a taxed and regulated market for recreational cannabis products?
I will. This will cut down the crime that comes from the illegal selling and producing of cannabis. I would leave the laws in place that consider it to be a controlled substance in the instance of driving, operating heavy machinery, etc.
3) Will you vote for or sponsor legislation allowing adults in Wisconsin to grow up to ten cannabis plants for personal use?
I support legislation that will allow adults to grow as much as they want for personal use. I think it should be treated like a garden plant and I would entertain the idea of allowing it to be sold at farmers markets (it would have to follow the same laws that regulate how much produce can be sold).
4) Will you vote for or sponsor legislation to allow Wisconsin farmers' to grow agricultural hemp for the industrial and commercial markets?
I absolutely will. In Wisconsin we have the opportunity to utilize our great land to become a prime producer and increase our economic output by becoming one of the few states to make it easy to grow hemp.
5) Will you vote for or sponsor legislation to allow for the expungement of prior marijuana convictions?
Once marijuana is legal, this would be the next thing to do. I imagine it would be attached to the bill/act that legalized recreational cannabis. I would still leave the convictions of driving under the influence of it and the like.
If you have any more questions, feel free to contact me!

Neptune, NJ (PressExposure) May 09, 2009 -- "Gutter protection has become a hot topic" says Richard Kuhns, Inventor and President of Waterloov® Gutter Protection Co. div. of R. K. Industries Inc. located in Neptune, NJ.
In a sea of over one hundred different gutter cover products from which to choose (with many of them not lasting more than a couple years before they fail), it is a plus to know that one product can actually last the voyage and live up to its performance warranty.
The first Waterloov® Gutters Covers were installed in the spring of 1989 in a ten mile area surrounding Red Bank NJ. Twenty years later, they are still in service and doing the job of keeping gutters clean and free flowing in the heaviest of debris conditions. Since that time, tens of thousands of homes throughout the USA have been installed with the Waterloov® Gutter Protection System.
What makes the Waterloov® Gutter Protection System so effective? The answer: "It's in the design," exclaims the Richard Kuhns. He goes on to explain, "Whereas most other gutter protection devices use screening designs or single fin designs to collect water, Waterloov® is the only gutter cover system that uses two rows of interspersed louvers in the front vertical surface to collect the water. The louvers limit the size and quantity of debris that can enter the gutter."

For more information, click here.
Community Bike Shop:
Through our storefront, we provide the Arlington community with affordable, refurbished bikes and repair services. We have the largest selection of both used bicycles and used parts in the DC Metro area, and as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, proceeds directly support our youth programs.
Although we operate out of a repurposed concession stand, we are a full service bike shop and can handle anything from a basic tune-up to a complete custom build. Our basic tune-up is $76 (including a $20 parts allowance) and encompasses the adjustment of brakes, drive-train, wheels and bearing systems. Stop by and experience a different kind of bike shop!
We also help adults learn the art of bike mechanics. For more information, check out the Community Programs' page, or for other opportunities to get involved, click here.

"Makes me hungry, and makes me sad that Christmas has come and gone already."ReplyDelete
I will avoid this one because I am currently starving and missing Christmas really badly! :(
....hahaha, kidding! This sounds really interesting, peppermint and cookies?! Hmmmmm! Very intriguing! Do you think the tea light burners make tarts perform for less time? I have heard some people say that in the past...Replies
Most people don't even use tea light warmers so I know a lot of people are quick to blame them, but people also think 24w warmers burn scent away too fast so who knows.Delete
I should become a Highly Clinical & Scientific Tart Tester. There are so many 'tests' I'd love to do.
But anyway, yes, peppermint and cookies is DIVINE!!!! You should look for it. I don't know if she'll stock it again before next Christmas but since you do destashes, maybe someone out there has one/some. It's yummy for sure!!
"Years ago a coworker added crushed candy cane bits and dust to a simple sugar cookie recipe and this scent absolutely makes me think of those cookies."ReplyDelete
Now I want to eat these fabled long-gone cookies.Replies
You make Jack Frost cupcakes this year for Christmas, and I'll make peppermint Christmas cookies.Delete

Ticket Dispute Could Make Flight Comparisons Harder
The friction between some popular travel websites and the airline industry has caused American Airlines to fly off on its own. The result is that someone using Orbitz and Expedia to search for a flight, won't find any fares on those sites from American.
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
As you might've heard, the friction between some popular travel websites and the airline industry has caused American Airlines to fly off on its own. The result is that someone using Orbitz or Expedia to search for a flight from, say, Chicago to Dallas won't find a single fare on those sites from American.
And this dispute in the airline industry could make it harder in the future to make side-by-side fare and flight comparisons. NPR's Brett Neely explains what it's all about.
BRETT NEELY: This is a story about trying to cut out the middleman. At the center of this dispute is a company called Sabre. Sabre takes fares and flight information from airlines and provides that information to another set of middlemen - travel agents and websites. Airlines pay fees to Sabre, and other so-called global distribution system companies, for every ticket booked through those systems.
Henry Harteveldt is an airline analyst with Forrester Research.
Mr. HENRY HARTEVELDT (Principal Analyst, Travel Industry, Forrester Research): The business model American is unhappy with is one that it created back in the 1970s.
NEELY: That's right, American Airlines created Sabre to computerize travel bookings and is now fighting with its offspring. Harteveldt says the business model made sense in the '70s, when computers were big and expensive and travel agents ruled the industry. But those days have passed and today Sabre is independent of American.
It also now handles things like car rentals, hotel reservations and cruise bookings. But American says Sabre's fees for booking air travel are too high.
The airline industry looks with corporate jealousy at Southwest Airlines, which rarely puts its fares on other websites.
Even though consumers spend billions on airline tickets every year, margins are very thin in the business. Any money American saves on those ticketing fees flows straight to its bottom-line.
In addition, analyst Henry Harteveldt says airlines increasingly make money by up-selling things that used to be free.
Mr. HARTEVELDT: American would like a travel agent to be able to offer that customer maybe a bundle that includes priority boarding, access to a priority screening line, and maybe a seat in the front of the economy cabin.
NEELY: And American Airlines executives think travelers would buy more of those bundles if travel agents and websites connected directly to American's computers, instead of going through Sabre.
But Orbitz and Expedia don't want their users to have that direct link. Chris Kroeger is a senior vice president at Sabre, and says those bundles American wants to offer undermine the apples-to-apples price comparison that the Sabre system offers.
Mr. CHRIS KROEGER (Senior Vice President, Sabre Travel Network): Travelers want and demand to see a full price and they want to be able to easily compare options.
NEELY: While American says it's happy to show prices, it also wants to show potential passengers what else it has to offer, like fancy upgrades - for an additional fee, of course.
American Airlines executive Cory Garner says the airline is sick of being viewed as nothing more than a flying bus.
Mr. CORY GARNER (Director of Distribution Strategy, American Airlines): Our view is that the airline product is not a commodity and hasn't been a commodity. But the way the displays are sorted and oriented today, it portrays a picture as if all airlines are exactly the same.
NEELY: So what does this dispute mean for travelers? Analyst Henry Harteveldt thinks the reservation system will certainly get more fragmented, as airlines keep trying to cut out the middlemen and get passengers to book through their own websites.
Mr. HARTEVELDT: The way this could affect us as consumers may mean more searching for flights, where you'd have to go to different websites to be able compare the flights and prices between airlines, and then going to different websites to buy them.
NEELY: As expected, the airline industry is watching this fight closely because the winner, Sabre or American, will probably set the terms for much of the rest of the industry.

Nearly two-thirds of British Columbians oppose a full-scale strike by the province's teachers, although a slim majority also oppose the B.C. government's legislation imposing a contract on the teachers, an Ipsos Reid opinion poll suggests.
When asked if they would support, "Teachers taking a full-scale-strike action, such as withdrawing classroom instruction for four days a week for two weeks," 32 per cent of respondents said they would support such a move while 62 per cent said they would oppose it.
When asked if they would support, "The provincial government legislating an end to the contract dispute and imposing a contract on teachers," 43 per cent supported the idea, while 52 per cent opposed it.
And when asked, "Which side do you think has been more fair and reasonable in these contract negotiations," teachers also had a slight edge in public opinion, although neither side was favoured by a majority, according to the poll.
Teachers were supported by 31 per cent of respondents and the government by 29 per cent, while an answer that neither side was being more fair and reasonable was given by 23 per cent.
The poll of 1,030 adult British Columbians was conducted by Ipsos Reid on Tuesday and Wednesday. The margin of error is said to plus or minus 3.1 per cent, 19 times out of 20.
The B.C. Teachers Federation has announced its members will stage a three-day walkout starting Monday.
Provincial legislation imposing a six-month cooling-off period and the appointment of a mediator in the contract dispute is not expected to be passed for until late in March.

Well, I'm at work right now, and at lunch time i tried to launch the system by the first time, all good until configure the system for the first time, I realized that my touchpad and my kerboard are not working, so I've plugged an USB mouse and it went fine.
Is there any solution to work with notebook hardware (keyboard and mouse)?
Thank you.

Econet, Zimbabwe government clash over mobile phone infrastructure
by March 30, 2015 12:28 pm0
Zimbabwe's Econet Wireless said on Monday the government's requirement to have mobile phone operators share telecommunications infrastructure was a disguised move by authorities to seize the assets.
Econet, which owns 80 per cent of telecoms infrastructure, said in a statement that although it agrees to share infrastructure such as base stations – metal towers with antennas and other electronics – the firm was unlikely to benefit much from sharing with its rivals' smaller networks.
"Therefore, the type of infrastructure sharing under debate is not feasible. It is a disguised, unconstitutional form of compulsory acquisition of our infrastructure," Econet said.
Supa Mandiwanzira, Minister for ICT, Postal and Courier Services, rejected Econet's accusation and said in a statement the government is considering creating a single firm to house the southern African country's mobile phone infrastructure.
He blamed the mobile operators for erecting mobile phone transmission towers at similar sites instead of sharing the infrastructure to reduce tariffs.
"The key objective for infrastructure sharing is to make services cheaper for consumers and save the country unnecessary cost of infrastructure importation," Mandiwanzira said.
Zimbabwe's telecoms regulator in January forced mobile phone operators to slash voice calls to 15 cents from 25 cents. The regulator wants rates to fall further to 9 cents next year.
Other mobile phone operators in Zimbabwe are Telecel, which is majority owned by Amsterdam-based mobile operator Vimpelcom, and government-owned NetOne.

Gymnasts are jacked in terms of useful strength. I feel awesome in the weight room lifting heavier and heavier weights and it isn't til I train gymnastics that I see how little usable strength lifting provides.

Honestly, I like following people who care enough about their work to grammar check it. I like following people who don't mind the fact that I may not always like their work and I am impatient enough that I don't like wading through articles that feel more like rice patties then roads that start somewhere and lead somewhere else specifically. I follow those who research their work, know their subject, and have developed a voice that I may not agree with but will inspire me to write responses, complementary subject hubs or ancillary hubs. I am addicted to writing and expressing myself and helping others do the same. If you are willing to feed my addiction as it were I don't mind feeding yours.

There was never any doubt that New Line was planning on making a sequel to last year's horror hit The Conjuring, but one of the biggest questions about the future of the franchise is whether or not horror icon would return to direct.
, who brilliantly played paranormal expert Lorraine Warren in the film, recently spoke to AICN about the project:
"As you know, I cherish my collaborations with Patrick [Wilson] and with James [Wan], and I really have an admiration for the woman that I play. I think it's an important story," she says. "I'm not just making another horror flick. I really think this is the go-to gal for over the last five decades that people have gone to for discernment on certain negative mysticism. It's a crazy subject matter. It's bigger than my brain can contemplate. So, I'm hoping to see Conjuring 2 sooner than later.
Related: Read all the news and rumors about the Conjuring 2
Anyone who's been following the news recently knows that James Wan has said he's pretty much abandoning horror movies. Right now, he's also embroiled in the disaster of making Furious 7 happen after 's untimely death. Farmiga and Walker both starred in Running Scared, an experience she recalls fondly:
I can genuinely call him one of my favorite scene partners ever. We did some really intimate work. My knowing him came at a really transitional phase in my life, and not only were we playing husband and wife but we would work out everyday together, and he just was kindness personified. He really had that dazzling smile of his. You can't fake that, man. It's a testament to who he was, and the purity and the goodness of who he was. We recently communicated through James Wan (who is directing Fast & Furious 7) when we were in San Francisco, and James and I saw each other, and we sent blessings each others' ways and regards. He's always held such a special place in my heart because it was such a formative experience for me. I had just done Down to the Bone, and Marty's film (The Departed), and this is one of my first chances at playing a leading character in a film, and I couldn't have asked for a more willing participant and a sweetheart of a guy. That film became kind of more successful in that rental afterlife. I think it had a bigger shelf life there.
The Conjuring's spinoff, Annabelle, will begin filming soon. We'll keep you updated on The Conjuring 2 as more develops.

ATWiki:Acceptable Content Policy
From ATWiki
The ATWiki is a non-profit website that provides a means for individuals and companies to share their knowledge of assistive technology and its related disabilities with the world.
The ATWiki system operators, moderators, and administrators have the right to move, edit, or remove any article or part of an article that they deem is in violation of this policy with or without notice. This policy is subject to change or disambiguation. Changes to the policy will only be made to protect the original intention of the site which is to provide un-biased, neutrally-written information on assistive technology and its related disabilities. Pages will not be "grandfathered" in under previous revisions of this policy if they are found to violate the current policy. Any users who repeatedly violate this policy or refuse to conform to this policy may be blocked from future edits or removed from the ATWiki indefinitely.
Items appropriate for posting on ATWiki
Important! All content must be related to assistive technology or related disabilities. Any content that is not in this vein will be removed.
Original articles on assistive technology and related disabilities
We highly encourage un-biased, neutrally written content on assistive technology, related disabilities. Content that is plagiarized from another source including other wikis such as the Wikipedia will be removed.
Legal copies of articles from elsewhere that you have permission to post
Legal copies of articles include articles that you have authored and/or have permission to post. The information in the articles should apply to assistive technology, be specific to the page topic, and factual in nature. Any articles containing opinions should be linked to in the External Links section of the page.
Information on AT related products, organizations, and companies
Companies or organizations wishing to post information on their products or services must also make a significant contribution to the general AT knowledge of the site or face removal of their content.
Information on AT related products, organization, and companies may be included as long as the information provided by the company or organization is limited to factual, neutrally-written information. Anything that constitutes puffery or an opinion will be removed. Claims must be backed-up with supporting information from a neutral, third-party. General assistive technology pages may include information about specific products, services, organization, and companies only if the information refers to the history of the technology. For example, a company may be mentioned if the company invented a particular assistive technology or played a significant role in the development.
Links to products, services, organization, and companies pages may be included on a general assistive technology page in a Product Links section after the main content of the page.
Primary (original) Research
If you have done primary research on a topic, your results must be published in another respected venue such as peer-reviewed journals, other printed forms, or respected online sites. Not all information added to ATWiki has to be from peer-reviewed journals, but please strive to make sure that information is reliable and verifiable. For example, citing book, print, or reliable web resources demonstrates that the material is verifiable and is not merely the editor's opinion.
Items not appropriate for posting on ATWiki
Promotional Materials
- Propaganda, advocacy, or recruitment of any kind, commercial, political, religious, or otherwise. Of course, an article can report objectively about such things, as long as an attempt is made to describe the topic from a neutral point of view. You might wish to start a blog or visit a forum if you want to convince people of the merits of your favorite views. Note: ATWiki pages may not be used for advocacy unrelated to ATWiki, but pages in the ATWiki namespace may be used to advocate for improving or organizing ATWiki itself. So essays, portals, project pages, etc. are part of what ATWiki is.
- Propaganda is a concerted set of messages aimed at influencing the opinions or behavior of large numbers of people. Instead of impartially providing information, propaganda in its most basic sense presents information in order to influence its audience. The most effective propaganda is often completely truthful, but some propaganda presents facts selectively to encourage a particular synthesis, or gives loaded messages in order to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the cognitive narrative of the subject in the target audience.
- Advocacy is the act of arguing on behalf of a particular issue, idea or person. Individuals, organizations, businesses, and governments (for example at the level of the United Nations) can engage in advocacy.
- Recruitment is the process or art of finding candidates for a post in an organization.
- Opinion pieces on current affairs or politics. Although current affairs and politics may stir passions and tempt people to "climb soapboxes" (i.e. passionately advocate their pet point of view), ATWiki is not the medium for this. Articles must be balanced so as to put entries for current affairs in a reasonable perspective, and represent a neutral point of view. Furthermore, ATWiki authors should strive to write articles that will not quickly become obsolete.
- Self-promotion. It can be tempting to write about yourself or projects you have a strong personal involvement in. However, do remember that the standards for encyclopedic articles apply to such pages just like any other, including the requirement to maintain a neutral point of view, which is difficult when writing about yourself. Creating overly abundant links and references to autobiographical articles is unacceptable.
- Advertising. Articles about companies and products are acceptable if they are written in an objective and unbiased style . Furthermore, all article topics must be third-party verifiable, so articles about very small "garage" or local companies are not likely to be acceptable. External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they identify major organizations associated with a topic. Please note ATWiki does not endorse any organizations and does not set up affiliate programs. Furthermore, those interested in promoting causes or events, or issuing public service announcements, even if noncommercial, should use a forum other than ATWiki to do so. This type of information on a general assistive technology page is considered advertising and will be edited, moved, or removed at the discretion of the editors
Non-essential Collections
- Collections of internal or external links. There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of ATWiki. Mere collections of internal links, except for disambiguation pages when an article title is ambiguous, and for lists to assist with the organization of articles.
- Collections of photographs or media files. Mere collections of photographs or media files with no text to go with the articles are not appropriate for posting on the ATWiki.
Personal/Directory/Catalog Information
- Genealogical entries or phonebook entries. Biography articles should only be for people with some sort of fame, achievement, or perhaps notoriety. One measure of publicity is whether someone has been featured in several external sources (on or off-line). Less well-known people may be mentioned within other articles.
- Directory information, directory entries, electronic program guide, or resources for conducting business. For example, an article on a company generally should not list upcoming events, current promotions, phone numbers, current schedules, etc., although mention of major events, promotions or historically significant program lists and schedules (such as the Paralympic Game schedules) may be acceptable. Furthermore, the Talk pages associated with an article are for talking about the article, not for conducting the business of the topic of the article. ATWiki is not the yellow pages. The only exceptions to this rule is the information allowed in templates created by staff of the ATWiki.
- Product pricing. ATWiki is not a pricing guide, therefore prices of a product should not be quoted in an article unless the price can be sourced and there is a justified reason for its mention. Examples of justified reasons include notable sales of rare collectors items, historical prices of note, etc.
Manual or Instructional Materials
- Instruction manuals. While ATWiki has descriptions of people, places, and things, an ATWiki article should not read like a how-to style manual of instructions, advice (legal, medical, or otherwise) or suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, and instruction manuals.
- Travel guides. An article on Paris should mention landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, but not the telephone number or street address of your favorite hotel or the price of a café au lait on the Champs-Élysées. ATWIki is not a place to re-create content more suited to entries in hotel guides, culinary guides, travelogues, and the like. Notable locations may meet inclusion criteria, but ATWiki does not list every tourist attraction, restaurant, hotel, venue, etc.
- Internet guides. ATWiki articles should not exist only to describe the nature, appearance or services a website offers, but should describe the site in an encyclopedic manner, offering detail on a website's achievements, impact or historical significance, which can be significantly more up-to-date than most reference sources since we can incorporate new developments and facts as they are made known.
- Textbooks and annotated texts. ATWiki is an encyclopedic reference, not a textbook. The purpose of ATWiki is to present facts, not to teach subject matter. It is not appropriate to create or edit articles which read as textbooks, with leading questions and step-by-step problem solutions as examples.
News Articles
- News articles about assistive technology, products, companies, and/or organizations should not be placed on the ATWiki. News articles may be linked to in the External Links section of a page.
ATWiki may contain content that some readers consider objectionable or offensive. Anyone reading ATWiki can edit an article and the changes are displayed instantaneously without any checking to ensure appropriateness, so ATWiki cannot guarantee that articles or images are tasteful to all users or adhere to specific social or religious norms or requirements. While obviously inappropriate content (such as an irrelevant link to a shock site) is usually removed immediately, or content that is judged to violate ATWiki's biographies of living persons policy can be removed, some articles may include objectionable text, images, or links if they are relevant to the content and do not violate any of our existing policies (especially neutral point of view), nor the law of the U.S. state of Georgia, where ATWiki's servers are hosted.

Theme or Occassion
Here at Katy Sue Designs we have worked with UK artist Sandra Rushton to create colouring books which are filled with stunning illustrations worthy of display. Whilst most colouring books on the market focus on intricate patterns the Art Colouring books concentrate on beautiful art that is shaded so the colourist always achieves a perfect result when colouring directly over the shaded illustrations.
Each book contains a mixture of very imaginative artwork and rich coordinating patterns, there are 70 8x8 inch images to colour with 10 of the main art illustrations being offered twice in both a shaded and un-shaded format so that colourists can create their favourites in a variety of colour ways. The shaded illustrations offer a perfect guide to where shading would naturally appear and ensure a stunning result.

Moving mesh in CFX-5
We have CFX-5(older version).I want the mesh movement for my simulation. Is there any way of acheiving mesh movement in CFX-5? I have seen tutorials of mesh movement in CFX-11 version but i can not find any such tutorial in CFX-5 version.
Thanks for reply in advance
Re: Moving mesh in CFX-5
It was a beta feature in V5 and only fully released in V10. It was also significantly improved in V11 so I recommend you update to the latest version as it is much easier.
Glenn Horrocks
Re: Moving mesh in CFX-5
The moving mesh capability, like Glenn said, was available as beta starting from CFX 5.7 (CFX 5.7.1 has some patches related to this feature). If you have access to the tutorial manual, I remember there was an example that simulated the moving piston of an I.C. engine through moving mesh.
Give that a try.. Good luck.

Unanswered: creating an employee schedule
Could some one please give me directions on how to create an 8 person schedule. By 8 I mean 8 employees on duty per shift at one time. I have one done but it appears I would need to hire about 14 employees. Is this the lowest number I would need to hire per shift?

Share what you're currently reading so we can recommend books you'll love
by Bradley Matthews
At his press conference yesterday, President Trump said "But it's very important to me, but this isn't Donald Trump that divided a nation. We went eight years with President Obama and we went many years before President Obama. We lived in a divided nation. And I am going to try – I will do everything within my power to fix that."
No, he hasn't divided the nation. That all falls in Obama's lap. He divided and was against white people that is for sure.

The hate being spewed out
on President Trump is unconscionable! Previous administrations have liberally and without appropriate screening allowed ILLEGALS to flood our nation. My mother was an immigrant – LEGALLY entering the US.
She fulfilled all immigration processes, learned English, worked at the same job for 20 years, paid taxes, voted, etc, etc. She NEVER took welfare or food stamps. She was a GREATFUL AMERICAN. She predicted the illegal immigration problems we currently face by "letting anybody into this country!"
As far as the President's speech referencing Sweden's refugee problems, do a search on – Sweden and refugee crisis. Sweden is fed up with their refugee/immigration problems!
Also, look at other nations policies on immigration. Why is America the dumping grounds for their leftovers!! And, there are numerous presidents, including Democrats, who banned immigrants from entering our nation. Example: President Carter specifically banned Iranians from entering the US. And, there's more!!!!
Do your homework! Get your facts straight! Search
the web.
And…yes, the media is murdering our President with their prejudice, word mockery, and hate toward him. So much for the love-child liberals

President Trump is facing the most brutal resistance of any POTUS ever inaugurated! There is hatred that has been unleashed by a classless, pathetic, liar, a former Nazi, an atheist Jew, dual citizen, a trouble maker, who should be banned from ever thinking about returning to the United States of America! George Soros, is the anti-Christ! President Trump isn't just fighting Soros, he has obama hanging around causing trouble, proving to everyone that he is classless, a man with zero, integrity, a liar, and he committed so many acts of treason that a judge wouldn't even need to be present to find him guilty, but of course it would only be legal by a judge saying, the court finds you Barrack Hussein Obama, guilty of High Treason against the United States of America, and you will be held at Gitmo, until your public hanging! This site is denying me of my constitutional right of free speech!

President Trump isn't just fighting Soros, he has obama hanging around causing trouble, proving to everyone that he is classless, a man with zero, integrity, a liar, and he committed so many acts of treason that a judge wouldn't even need to be present to find him guilty, but of course it would only be legal by a judge saying, the court finds you Barrack Hussein Obama, guilty of High Treason against the United States of America, and you will be held at Gitmo, until your public hanging!

Edwin: I am not a mindless minion. I will take a calculus test against you anytime, pal. I lived in California and I know that all it takes to register to vote in California is a driver's license, which the "most amazing" (LOL) governor, Jerry Brown, gave to illegals. There are millions of illegals in California. It is not that far-fetched that there could have been quite a bit of cheating in the election. That is what the democrat party is about cheating, lying, blaming, deflecting, and trying to make others look bad when they, in fact, are the party of the devil. Again, I say, coming from someone like you, your insults have crushed me. (LOL)
February 18, 2017,8:36 am
Edwin: I don't spew hatred. I tell it like it is. If more people did that instead of being politically motivated or fake in everything they say and do, then the world would not be so screwed up right now. Take a deep breath and try to listen and learn for once in your life.
February 18, 2017,8:29 am
Wow, Edwin, My bones are crushed coming from an uninformed idiot like you. I'm so hurt! How will I go on?
February 18, 2017,8:26 am
This has been fun, but I only allow myself to indulge in this stuff for the period of the day I see the initial email question from Conservative Books. Good night all!
February 18, 2017,1:14 am
Sam Jones – Where did you go to school? You have a serious problem with reading comprehension. I'm speaking of my own real life encounters with flesh and blood human beings. Maybe you don't think so, but how can you possibly know anything at all about my personal experiences? Crossing the border illegally is a crime, I agree. But it absolutely does NOT lead to all that other stuff. That's pure nonsense from someone who needs to actually meet and work with real people. You obviously WANT TO HATE. THAT'S a gateway crime! Who in hell is Chuck Todd and what's the size of a man's nose got to do with anything? In one post you say you believe that drugs should be legal and taxed, then you go on and on about how everybody who disagrees with you is a drug fiend. You're one of those "conservatives" who thinks that FREEDOM means "I'm free to tell you how to live your life, and to put you in prison if you don't comply, but you'd better not even THINK about telling ME what to do!" You make conservatism a dirty word. Your beliefs sound a lot like Hitler's. Just replace JEWS with MEXICANS. Seriously, you need psychiatric help.
February 18, 2017,1:10 am
Do you get your figures from CNN, MSNBC or mainstream media if so, rethink your sources. CNN, MSNBC wants and needs their cocaine to flow over border easy and cheaply. Ever see the size of Chuck Todd's nose?
February 18, 2017,12:10 am
Ed "most of them are good people…" I don't think so, most of them are useless criminals. Where do you get this "most" of them figure? Crossing the border illegally (crime)is a gateway crime to more crimes robbery bugrlary rape Breaking and entering tresspassing all not a far throw from sneaking over border. No most are bad people.
February 18, 2017,12:04 am
Sam Jones – We PAY the National Guard to GUARD THE NATION! When they've done their tour they can go home and teach their children whatever they want. There's currently a joke going around, something like this – "Let the stupid gringos build their wall! We'll just dig more tunnels!"
"Don't believe your sources" – you sound just like Donald – "EVERYBODY'S LYING BUT ME!"
I live in Denver and there's lots of immigramts here – legal and otherwise. Most of them are good people who work their a$$es off for crap pay, and those I've talked to (those willing to trust the honky), would be more than happy to pay taxes on their earnings, IF WE"D LET THEM! They don't want to be on welfare, it's demeaning and draws unwanted attention.
"Born here by illigals should not make a child a citizen" – too bad, it's the law. Wasn't that you a while back raving about obeying the law? You can work to change it if you like, but meantime, it is what it is.
PAUL – you're still on the Kenya thing? Really?
February 17, 2017,10:00 pm
DaleW – you miss the point. When a candidate wins BOTH the popular vote AND the electoral college, that is ideal. It means he has the support of the majority of the people in the majority of states. When he wins by a landslide, that's called a MANDATE. When a candidate wins ONLY the electoral college, that's a TKO. He has the support of the majority of people in the majority of states, BUT NOT THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY! Donald repeatedly makes a big deal of his "mandate" – NOT! I accept his victory, as it stands as an example of WHY the founders established the electoral college, and I pray that all of you Trumpies are correct, that he turns out to be the greatest president ever. It would be un-American bordering on treason to wish an elected president ill. That doesn't stop me from thinking that it ain't gonna happen.
Dhimmicraps – can ANY of you Trumpies engage in civilized discourse, that is, without insulting everyone who disagrees with you? Not that the majority of Dhimmicraps are any better – I almost got attacked in Boulder, CO, for putting a Bush/Cheney sticker on my car. But, really, can't we all just get along ;-p ?
February 17, 2017,9:42 pm
Why bother the National Guard. They have children and should stay home with them. They can home school their children once the wall is built. Don't believe your data sources. Illigals collect checks and in many cases more than one with fake IDs. I've known of these situations. Born here by illigals should not make a child a citizen simple. No more anchor babies.
February 17, 2017,9:22 pm
President Trump is on the right track and is doing what a president should do for our country. Illegals need to get legal to live here and pay into our system and pay taxes. America is not a ATM. We are only going to build a wall because people want to come here illegally. Common sense. Our president is a great communicator and that's what this country needs not like the big mouth violent corrupt politicians of your last administration. Obama was the biggest fraud in American history, his grandmother told the world on national tv that her grandson Hussein was born in Kenya. Why didn't the liberal protesters protest? He and Hillary should share a cell. The only way to stop moochers and corrupt politicians is to keep draining the swamp and have a maximum two year term limit on all politicians. We the People support Trump!
February 17, 2017,9:17 pm
Sam – YOU don't understand. Read my post(s) again. Do you even know what a Libertarian is? If you did you wouldn't be accusing me of the stupid beliefs that you want to think are held by anyone who didn't vote for Trump. The beliefs you're ranting against are NOT EVEN HELD BY THE MAJORITY OF LIBERALS! They only exist in the minds of a very small minority of College students (and professors) in the most liberal colleges in America! Most of the people you think of as liberals are only a little bit left of center, just as most of the conservatives in this country are actually only a little bit right of center. Most Americans, being Christian (or descended from Christians) are compassionate people who know deep in their hearts and minds that most politicians are as crooked as the day is long (Republicans AND Democrats), and the worst of the bunch are RICH politicians.
WHY do most rabid Trumpies insist on insulting anyone who disagrees with them? I drive a truck – 3 days a week 14 hours a day. I'm home 4 days a week. See what happens when you make assumptions?
As for welfare users and drug abuse:
"According to state data gathered by ThinkProgress, the seven states with existing programs — Arizona, Kansas, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Utah — are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to ferret out very few drug users. The statistics show that applicants actually test positive at a lower rate than the drug use of the general population. The national drug use rate is 9.4 percent. In these states, however, the rate of positive drug tests to total welfare applicants ranges from 0.002 percent to 8.3 percent, but all except one have a rate below 1 percent. Meanwhile, they've collectively spent nearly $1 million on the effort, and millions more may have to be spent in coming years."
See what happens when you don't fact check "urban myths"?
As for illegals on welfare. Illegals don't get welfare. They get benefits through their children. Let me capitalize that. CHILDREN. Remember what I said about most Americans being compassionate Christians? We screwed up letting their parents in. It's a done deal, OUR OWN DAMN FAULT! Do we let the children starve or give them food stamps? Do we let them die of preventable diseases, or provide medical care? Do we let them grow up stupid so they've no alternative to crime, or educate them? If they were born here, they're AMERICANS! If they've spent most of their lives here, do we uproot them and ship them back to the hell that is Central America? I don't believe in the stupid wall. I believe that we should put the National Guard on the border and rebuild the Coast Guard. Central Americans need to stay home and FIGHT to improve conditions in their own countries. Illegals with criminal records and illegals with no children should be sent back. But families with children deserve our compassion. They're only here because our politicians were too cowardly to deal with the problem as it developed. And you want to punish the children?
I don't know (and neither do you) or care what Bill and Hillary did in college. You say Trump doesn't even drink? I say "THANK GOD!" I don't even want to think how much more whacked he'd be if he did!
February 17, 2017,8:38 pm
@Edwin . . . "Remember that Donald DID NOT win the popular vote" ? ? ?
Can you remember Edwin when was the LAST TIME that the National Popular Vote MATTERED in the USA?
Bet you don't know . . . it was the first of never . . . .
The popular vote in the USA is in every State . . . what happens in dense population states like California and New York matter little.
Dhimmicrap corruption is rampant and likely millions of illegals voted . . . if you look into it . . . it is quite simple, especially in California.
But investigations are going forward . . . finding lots of dead folks on the rolls, many people registered in more than one state . . . and so on.
February 17, 2017,8:11 pm
@Sam . . . I know Peelosi is on drugs . . . she still thinks Bush is the president.
And Maxine . . . what can you say about her . . . she want to impeach Trump, and says the Russians are invading Korea . . . must be Trump's fault . . . lol
I suspect most Dhimmicraps are on Drugs . . . you couldn't be that stupid playing straight.
February 17, 2017,8:06 pm
Ed you don't understand. Read my post again. I love Trump that means I want a big beautiful wall I want Drugs to stop… Don't you understand? I do believe it should be legal and taxed but that will not happen so Build the wall. Stop the criminals. Yes, if you steal and use someone else's ID you reck havoc on that innocent person's life that's a felony. I know the excuses the reply is Criminals that rob people, houses, and banks only do it to eat to feed their families too. Poor people only robbed because he/she wanted to feed their children. He how's this for and idea don't have children if can't afford them. Don't expect me to pay for them. Ed why don't you take in your house and pay for a bunch of illigals? You drive a truck so you're never home anyways. But don't ask me to pay for their children or their drug habits.Speaking of drug testing illigals don't work just collect welfare so they don't get tested I have to I work. Yes a prerequisite of president is pot and Cocaine use. You think Bill did it alone Hillary was at his side. Trump doesn't even drink..
February 17, 2017,7:16 pm
SAM – since I drive a truck, I'm subject to random drug testing, and I'm tested at least twice a year. When was the last time YOU were tested? Is drug testing required for the President? I think it should be (for ALL politicians). I bet we'd ALL be surprised!
February 17, 2017,6:55 pm
Wake up Donald won not only the popular vote, the legal ones he also won the inteligent vote.
Drug test the rich movie stars do it now because their Cocaine, shipments are about to end with the wall. Now if they can make it legal and cheap for every day Joe's you will see liberals come on board with Trump. Because he will be greatest president of all time.
Drug test all CNN and MSNBC staff NY Times staff as well as Hollywood and the likes. Even though the poor NY Times staff may be more interested in cheap pot coming over border.
February 17, 2017,6:50 pm
That's right, if someone tells the truth about your GOD appointed billionaire he MUST be a Hillary paid minion! I didn't vote for either of them, I voted Libertarian to send BOTH parties the message that the vast majority of Americans don't vote for radicals of either stripe. Remember that Donald DID NOT win the popular vote, not by a long shot. His excuse was that 3 million dead people and illegals voted for Hillary. Sure Donald, blame it on dead people and imaginary (SHOW ME THE MEAT, DONALD!) illegals. But he doesn't have to prove anything. His mindless minions will ignore everything and change the subject back to what Obama did. My post was simple – EVERY President inherits a mess. What's he going to do about it? NOTHING! He'll lie, make up facts, then accuse the media of making up the facts. When the media on both sides of the aisle agree that he's a psychotic lying sack, he'll claim that everybody is out to get him. AND YOU"LL BELIEVE HIM!
Every time since Reagan that Republicans have given rich people (DONALD'S PEOPLE) a tax break, instead of using that newly available capital to expand industry and create jobs here in the U.S., they've used it to offshore jobs and automate the remaining few. Industry leaders claim that the American labor force just isn't smart enough to handle new age jobs, that's why they need to offshore high tech jobs and import knowledge workers to do what's left. Where's the efforts to retrain Americans and educate American children to compete with Chinese kids? Oh no, that smells like socialism! So of course we have continuously higher unemployment and lower salaries for those former factory workers who manage to find jobs at MacDonald's.
Laura – I'm neither a Liberal NOR a Trumpie (I won't call you a conservative!). You rave about liberals spewing hate, then go on to insult everyone who speaks truth about your GOD appointed President. LISTEN TO YOURSELF!
February 17, 2017,6:10 pm
Everyone against Trump should be drug tested. Don't fool yourselves they don't care bout the familys being broken up families are broken up Everytime we send someone to jail or prison the law is the law. They don't care about little Mexican families or kids they care about the cocaine and drug war being won with Trump. The rich elites in Cali movie stars Hollywood the Rich NYs all want their Cocaine the wall will stop this
Drug test all against Trump you will be shocked..
February 17, 2017,5:59 pm
Edwin Sheldon:
Every post you make on here makes me think that you are a paid Hillary minion. Donald Trump is passing on the $400,000 presidential salary to help this nation. GOD appointed him because he knows he is the only one right now capable of cleaning up the atrocious mess that is this country. He did not have to do this. He had a great life making plenty of bucks and he could have spent the rest of his life making more bucks. Every time I read one of you liberal's obnoxious posts, I wonder how anyone can be so ignorant. You people spew hatred and, yet, you are the so-called party of non-haters. Everything is B.S. with you people. The problem for you guys is that Americans are not fooled anymore by your constant deflections, blame-games, lying, and idiotic behavior. We voted for TRUMP for the economy and security for our families. Anything else is a load of crap on your part. You should appreciate what Donald Trump is doing and maybe if you stopped being hypnotized by the B.S. of the Democratic Party and the media and try to pay attention and learn something (maybe for the first time in your life), you will maybe get a clue of how much of a mess this country and the whole world for that matter are in right now. GET OVER IT! HILLARY LOST AND I WILL BUY YOU ALL PACIFIERS IF YOU NEED THEM TO COPE WITH YOUR LOSS!!!!!!
February 17, 2017,4:48 pm
EDWIN SHELDON–What Obama DID LEAVE: The HIGHEST level of working age Americans NOT working in U.S. HISTORY–right this minute the figure is 94.3 MILLION, it was higher at 95+ MILLION. The HIGHEST CHILD POVERTY level in U.S. HISTORY; the LONGEST period of 8% UNEMPLOYMENT since WW 2; the HIGHEST level of FOODSTAMPS in U.S. HISTORY, nearly 43 MILLION people in POVERTY and he SPENT MORE MONEY, RAN UP HIGHER NATIONAL DEBT than previous 43 presidents COMBINED over 233 YEARS of U.S. history! And that's AFTER his $800 BILLION 'jobs stimulus' bill that he later laughed about, stating: "well it wasn't as shovel ready as we thought". Obama's ECONOMY? RATED AS THE FOURTH WORST IN U.S. HISTORY–by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (Bea.gov) a FEDERAL AGENCY in the Commerce Dept. Obama is FIRST PRESIDENT IN U.S. HISTORY—to NEVER achieve 3% growth at ANY time in his presidency. Every president in U.S. history ACHIEVED at LEAST 3% growth–Obama is the FIRST that never did! That's because his $1+ TRILLION in TAXES and thousands of new regulations STAGNATED the U.S. economy! WHO is Barack HUSSEIN Obama? The HIGHEST DEBT leader in WORLD HISTORY, the BIGGEST SPENDER IN WORLD HISTORY!
February 17, 2017,4:44 pm
Yes he did,but dont worry, he will fix everything..
February 17, 2017,4:23 pm
What did Obama do for this nation the past eight years? Taking vacations does not constitute constructive government…. Give Trump a chance to get the wheels going and then you can vote in four years……
February 17, 2017,4:08 pm
Whenever a new president from the other party takes power, it claims to have inherited a mess. When it fails to do anything positive to clean up the mess, that's called "making excuses" and "passing the buck". Donald has never passed a buck ($) in his life, but he's really good at making excuses, blaming others, and making up facts to suit his needs of the moment. HE'S a mess, and hold on folks, it's gonna get messier!

Emails released by WikiLeaks reveal the extent to which one single word brough the Clinton campaign apparatus to a standstill until everyone could be in agreement about what the candidate ought to say.
Last June, Pope Francis released an encyclical that called upon the wealthy around the world to change their lifestyles to better protect the environment.
WikiLeaks reveals that Lauren Peterson, a Clinton campaign staffer, prepared two different versions of what Hillary Clinton would say in response to the Pope, and sent around the two draft tweets for comment as they sought one final product to come from Clinton.
Advertisement - story continues below
"Real problems take real solutions. Thank you, @Pontifex for shining a light on the crisis of climate change. -H," read one option.
The second version had a word that drew scrutiny.
TRENDING: Joe Biden Says the Man Who Shot the Texas Church Shooter Shouldn't Have Had an AR-15
"There's only one thing to say about @Pontifex's bold statements on climate change & renewable energy: Amen. -H," read the other proposed tweet.
Teddy Goff, another Clinton staffer, liked the second tweet except for one word — "amen."
Advertisement - story continues below
"Adding Podesta here too for his review. I vote #2, but defer to the non-Jews on this thread if anyone thinks 'amen' might rub people the wrong way," Goff said in his email.
Podesta then moved the discussion in a slightly different direction and away from the "amen" tweet.
"I'm ok. We are kind of slow on the draw here so might try to do something more forward leaning like encyclical + Pope's September visit to US & UN add critical momentum to Paris conference. Other way to take this is to thank him for pointing out that the people at the bottom will get clobbered the most by climate change," he wrote.
Peterson then came up with a revised tweet.
Advertisement - story continues below
"Amen," did not appear in the final version of the tweet:
".@Pontifex is right—climate change is a moral crisis that disproportionately harms the neediest among us. We need leadership, not denial. -H," it read.
