This is a conservative thread to allow those with conservative views to express themselves. We welcome Republicans, Tea Party folks, and those who believe in the Constitution as written, not as interpreted by liberal judges. If you have liberal views we invite you to participate in a civil and respectful conversation. We would respectfully request that if you cannot post in a respectful and civil manner to refrain from doing so until you can. Good discussions are great - insulting arguments are not. We welcome discussions about our weight loss journey.

One more day needed to recover. Glad I hoard my sick time. Thanks to those useless workers that abused the previously unlimited sick time, we are now limited. You know the kind....use up all of their vacation the first 3 months of the year and then seem to get sick nearly every Friday and Monday.
11 more days or so.
Geri...great post last night. Meg...great link. Good to see Peg, Catter and gailru, Martha, Gary and whomever else is lurking.
Orlando officer shot dead and another killed, thanks to another thug that should not have been on the streets. It is like they've been given carte blance (sp) to shoot law enforcement because they figure "everyone thinks the cops deserve it". thanks O, for that legacy.
Not sure what to think of the Ft. Lauderdale blood bath.
Have to LOL at the lib/progs lamenting about how we should leave the Clintons alone. We won, leave them be. REALLY?? Tell that to those morons in Hollywood, taking every opportunity to insult Trump (but I know you are reading this and saying "well, he DESERVES it"). You people disgust me. Obama bad-mouthed Bush for years every chance he got. So just stuff it. Oh, and mocked Mitt Romney. Why oh why is it okay for libs/progs/dems to continually, publicly insult bush, romney, Palin, Trump, carson, Condi Rice and the list goes on and on. But......we should just leave the Clintons alone. Pffft. Started writing this an hour ago...got sidetracked. Lin

Hi Lin, many thanks for getting us going for another week. I haven't had time to watch the news today but will probably catch up this evening. The progressives must have a very bad belly ache because they are always griping.
Lin, I hope you are feeling better.
I will check back soon.

Lin, you don't have strong opinions do you? LOL Loved your post. Totally agree about the GLARING double standard. The liberals can denigrate, mock, and totally trash everybody who disagrees with their lifestyle, but if we say ONE word exposing the truth we become part of Hilary's basket of deplorables. I am PROUD to be "deplorable" under Hilary's newspeak definition.

Catter thanks for that link! Gary I was a bit confused with the Tucker/Beck interview. And I am NOT pleased with the change of time. 7 was a great time for me and DH to watch Tucker...9 not so much. BIT...there are places on the internet to watch, just not the same though.

Lin, I can understand a little about your confusion about Glenn Beck. Some of what he said had LDS nuances a non-member wouldn't catch, but I did. Sorry, I can't be more specific, but I did recognize the ideas Glenn expressed as those a LDS member would express or understand. it had to do with giving the benefit of the doubt, and with how added knowledge about a person can change the way you think and speak about that person - somewhat similar to how Mitt Romney handled his interview with Donald Trump.

Lin, you were not the only one confused with the Tucker / Beck interview and I gave up watching it. I hope Tucker does well with his new show. I have always liked him.
Cat, thank you for sharing the link. I think I saw that a while back but it was good to see it again

Good morning all. I will have to watch the Beck interview on the internet I guess. I would have recorded it but forgot it was to be on. We do Bible Study on Monday evenings so I was not home and when we got home a bit after 9, my DH had to put the college football game on. Sitting here this morning listening to them introduce Jeff sessions for his confirmation hearing. Of course Diane Fienstien got up and said all the things she think is wrong with him. Very nasty people, the libs. Someone came into that hearing and started screaming so Sen Susan Collins just stopped speaking and smiled till they got the person out of there. I can tell the Dems are going to put on a big show during this time. Of course, Chuck Schumer has said they will fight everything Trump tries to do. Now they hollered and hollered the GOP were obstructionists even though the GOP folded on almost everything that came through congress. So now they are going to be the obstructionists. Session's daughter and her family just came in and one of the little girls, about 3 years old or so, came running in to grandma and leaned over for Sessions to kiss her. It was precious. There is a lot of law enforcement there too. Kind of neat. I've got to go get ready to go to water aerobics.

I watched the Carlson / Beck interview again and it made more sense the second time around, but as I said if you are not LDS you may not catch some of the nuances Beck used.
Jack Ma, the billionaire founder of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd., on Monday met with president-elect Donald Trump to talk about a plan to create 1 million U.S. jobs in the next five years.... Duh, so Trump will be bad for the economy ... NOT!! What a bunch of idiots the libs are.

So I have been, off and on, listening to the Sessions hearing on his confirmation. Gotta love Ted Cruz. He truly tells it like it is. Now for a history listen for the lurkers on the other side.
President Andrew Jackson, a racist, a man wbo owned slaves, a man who raped is female slaves whenever he felt the need to, a man who beat his slaves, a very evil man, an alcoholic, was the founder of the Democrat party. And, as we all know, President Lincoln was the Republican who fought with every ounce of his being for the end of slavery. He was, in fact, murdered because of his political leanings by a far left wing idiot. Moving forward, was the uprising of the KKK, who were a bunch of evil white men who hated the Blacks and considered Black people less than the dirt beneath their feet. The KKK was made up of a bunch of Democrats who did not want the Black man to rise to the same level as they were because they did not value the lives of the Black man and thought they were just scum. And then we go on to the Civil Rights movement. Now the Kennedy's were very good at implementing that movement, although I do not know if they did it for all the right reasons, but I always said JFK was the last decent Democrat I have had the pleasure to know as my President. At anyrate, it was the Democrats who fought tooth an nail to not have segregation in the schools and the Democrats who fought tooth and nail to keep the Black man down and from voting. Unfortunately, once the Democrats lost and the Republicans managed to get more fair rules and laws for the Black man, the Democrats have gone out and done everything they could to call Republicans racists and homophobes and every nasty name they can call us. Now for you lurkers that do not know this or believe me, I invite you to go to the library, or even in some cases the computer, but check out the old history books, not the new ones, because the Democrats have been trying to rewrite history for a long time now. go check it out. The most racist party there is, is the Democrats. I hope you really read this and understand who is you friend and who is not. The Democrats would like to keep the minorities in this country down and dependent on them because they figure that is the way they can get their votes. The Republicans want to help everyone, regardless of race or sexual preference or anything else, to pick themselves up and learn to support themselves so they can have self confidence and pride in themselves. That is the difference in the two parties.

Martha, the democrats have always been the obstructionists, lets not forget Harry Reed who blocked over 300 bill from coming up for a vote in the senate. Good informative post Martha.

Do you all remember when Obama made fun of the special Olympics bowling? No one mentions that do they? Also no one mentions the way he tried to undermine Israel's last election? Shades of Russia - right?
So glad that Obama is leaving while we still have a nation!!He truly did his best to destroy America & it will be a long fight back. He left us with a hugh debt to repay for sure. AND he never had to account for all the trillions in the stimulus package - it was just a slush fund for the demos.
I am so glad that person is out of the White House but I fear we are not rid of him.
God bless America

Oh I'm sure Obama will be in our face every chance he gets. In fact he was tonight when I came home from work so I immediately muted him out. I do have a mute button and an off button and I know how to use them.
