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.

Gail posted today on last weeks thread so I am pasting her here so you don't miss her comments.
I can't wait to see what our new president will do today! Good luck to him and his administration. Now if Chuck Schumer would behave like a rational person and try to help the country instead of himself and George Soros.

Hi everyone, here is a news story re the Girl Scouts and the Inauguration Day Parade.
totalconservative.com/not-even-girl-scouts-safe-deranged-liberals/
Why does the women's leftist liberal group think they represent all women. They don't represent me or anyone I know.
I am glad most of the young people took part in the inauguration in spite of the liberals. Taking part in the Inauguration was probably a once in a life time opportunity for them.

Thanks for the start up Meg! Great article, thanks for that. Seriously, when did Donald Trump promise to oppress women? These people are truly deranged. You have to scroll down to the comments and watch the video.....all these brave people covering their faces while destroying property. They need to have their ass plunked into jail. What right do they have? Trump has already had a busy first official day in office. His meeting with the CEO's of several business was a great idea.....let's get rolling on making America great agaiin. Lin

I'm waiting for supper. It is a box supper since the retirement home is now in lockdown. The flu is taking over. So we are in quarantine for a few days. Good grief. At lunch, the sugar/creamers/salt/pepper had been removed because they carry germs.
President Trump has his agenda and he is working it. Nice going, Mr. President.
Have a good evening! I bet he starts at eight in the morning!

Catter, I do hope you avoid those germs. I have seen first hand what happens when the flu takes hold in a place like yours. Healthy hugs and vibes to you! A good first day me thinks! None of this "rock star" bull crap from 8 years ago.....the media was sooooo star struck with Obama....they never really asked any tough questions during the briefings....did they? I seem to remember lots of Bush bashing, star gazing (i.e. what celeb star attended the various balls)...whatever. Get over it liberals. Stop this bullshit of impeaching Trump. For WHAT? Take a good look at Bill Clinton and the disgusting things he did as governor of Arkansas and as President of the United States. He was so busy getting gratified under the desk IN THE OVAL OFFICE....this has been proven in a court of law......that he did not concentrate on the danger of Osama Bin Laden. Hence 9/11. Where were all these Pink Pussy Hats during the 9/11 investigations? Not paying attention or not caring at that time. Please read the 9/11 Comission Report. Bill Clinton could have done something to prevent 9/11 but did not. READ THE REPORT, then decide for yourself.
And don't worry Pink Pussys, nobody really cares about yours and what you do with it, we just don't want to pay for your poor judgement and choices. Use a freaking condom...a lot cheaper and less painful than an abortion I would think. I am all for free condoms anywhere...bars, drug stores, schools, as long as they are in iron clad cases because there are idiot jerks that think putting pin holes in condems is really funny...I am not joking, this has happened for years.

So good to see this group thriving again after the depressed years of Obama. Facebook is also filled with positive conservative messages. The left is just plain nuts. Madonna should be arrested. If a conservative had said he/she wants to blow up the white house while Obama was in office they'd have been all over him/her. Trump is doing just fine - get over it sore loser liberals.

Well, I took Madonna off my Christmas card list. How shameful of her!
Flu is still the word here and the quarantine continues. I live in a small apartment and now it seems smaller. I open the door to look at the hallway. Gee, no one out there. This, too, shall pass.
President Trump is going to town and I like it.
Sleep well!

I am sick of politics, on the news, and on my FB page. Sick of both sides, to be honest. But have to mention the stupidest comments. Can't remember where I saw it. Some one mentioned Bill Clinton and Monica, the liberal reply was that it was Monica's fault. Pure Slick Willy being seduced by a 20 year old intern. One more, than I am heading to the tub, are Madonna and Ashley Judd the new voices of womanhood in the USA now or just the liberal women? Not my voice, yuck. Filthy mouths and way off kilter mentally.
Good night.

Not too surprising. It seems the millennials have a totally different moral outlook than us older folks. My daughter and granddaughter think nothing of having sex outside of marriage. I had an 18 or 19 year old worker at Walmart flirting with me for several weeks until it became obvious I wasn't interested because I already have the best gf in the world. Of course it can't be Billy boy's fault! NOT

Hell to all
Cat. I am sorry you are cooped up in your apartment but it guess it is better than getting the flu. Did you have a flu shot this year?
Geri, I know how you feel. The Democrats are grand standing in the senate holding up confirmation of appointments. I just glance at the headlines and watch very little TV. Did you have tornados in your area over the weekend? I did watch some of the weather forecast cast. I talked to DGD on the phone she is further south than you and they had a lot of rain.
Gary, I often think that my parents and grand parents must be turning in their graves if they could see all that goes on in todays world.
I couldn't remember the name of the Senator that they are holding hearings on or with for SOUS. I think it is Senator Sessions who has been a Senator for 20 years and he has worked with these Senators all this time and they say they need another week to check him out. It is ridiculous. And they wonder why the people of this country are angry and why they voted the Democrats out at all the recent elections. Remember it was Democrat Harry Reid as Speaker of the House who refused to allow over 300 bills approved by the Congress to come up for an up or down vote. Well they will come for a vote now they have passed the Congress and all the Senate has to do is vote on them one way or the other.
I am off to bed. Good night all.

Gailruu posted this on last week's thread today:
Does anyone get the feeling that the Tweets our president sends out each day are designed to occupy the press while he get the important things done? So far he has accomplished a LOT!
I think you may have something there. Trump is using Twitter to distract the press so he can get some real work done. He's accomplished more in his first few days than Obama did in a year. It helps that we no longer have a golfer-in-chief.

Trump is turning things around:
Stocks rose to all-time highs Wednesday after a series of executive orders from President Donald Trump increased bullish sentiment on Wall Street.
"Clearly, this has become a buy-high-sell-higher market with the Dow breaking above 20,000," said Terry Sandven, chief equity strategist at U.S. Bank Wealth Management. "Out of the gate, President Trump is moving along with his agenda."
"More importantly, earnings have been on the cusp of increasing, and that's going to be key to hold these valuations," Sandven said.
The Dow broke above 20,000 for the first time, rising 130 points as Boeing and IBM contributed the most gains. The S&P 500 advanced 0.55 percent to a new all-time high, with industrials and financials leading advancers. The Nasdaq gained 0.67 percent, also notching a record high.

Trump sure has been busy. I have to laugh when people try to compare a wall to protect our country from people coming in here illegally with the Berlin Wall. The Berlin Wall was made to keep their own citizens IN. we don't need that money to build the infrastructure....remember Obama gave billions to "shovel ready" projects for roads and bridges, so we should be all good there, right? I am so happy to see that voter fraud is going to be given the full attention it needs now the dems are no longer in control. LOL at them pushing against investigations into it. If you have nothing to hide, whats the problem? Remember the lady in Ohio that voted for Obama 5 times....and she worked for the election board. And I hope they do hold up that money that Obama sneakily tried to get to the Palestinians. Speaking of ..... wouldn't that money be better spent feeding the homeless and hungry right here?? Lin

Just stopping by to say hi.
I am not on much anymore. I wasn't thrilled about either candidate, but I am cautiously optomistic.
