Given all the press of recent months concerning the present occupant of the White House regarding Russian interference in our election processes. In addition to "proven" intervention in election records in Illinois and several other States. Also strong indications of malfeasance by high ranking FBI, Justice Dept. and other government official. I sometimes think I am the only one in the entire Universe who knows WHO WAS PRESIDENT WHEN THESE EVENTS OCCURED!...

I have pondered for near two years now and cannot find any credible evidence nor have I unearthed any information from any source with a long history for veracity that would support the notion that Putin preferred Trump over Clinton. It would seem that any normal person with ordinary intelligence would conclude that Putin would much prefer Clinton since he has a well known, factual history of running roughshod over Clinton! Factual examples: Selling of 25% of our uranium to Russia, red line in Syria and invasion and annexation of Crimea.. ...

The election is upon us with early voting over this Saturday and voting at all precincts next Thursday. I wish to address the Mayor’s race...

The Robert Mueller investigation into the Trump Campaign’s collusion (or lack thereof) with the Russian government re the 2016 presidential election has existed for near thirteen months now with no evidence of any such activity. Even public statements that Trump is not a target of the investigation. ...

The events of today are the first time in my life time, I first voted in the Presidential Election in 1960, I have seen such vitriol used in political discourse. I aver that such is the first time in American history that a political Party has systematically and with acrimoniousness in concert with many of our law enforcement institutions sought to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States. ...

Soon after Columbine school shooting in Columbine, Colorado in April 1999, I anticipated that various and sundry Legislators would propose totally meaningless legislation that had its genesis in a knee-jerk reaction that would in no way positively impact a solution to prevent such heinous acts in future. In support of this thesis I offer the last near 20 years of the history of similar acts of barbarism...

It is ironic, even funny if it were not so pathetic. The Democrats as personified by Shummer and Pelosi exhort the Party's position by distortions and outright falsehoods. Chuckie would have the denizens of the left believing the 5-6 millions votes for him somehow trumps the 63 million voting for Trump. ...

Tomorrow night, Tuesday Dec 12th, is the meeting of the County Commission which will, among other issues, take-up the question of whether a temporary "care taker" Senator will be seated for Jim Tracy's former seat. Such an action if approved will only have the effect of massaging some political wannabe's ego and will result in no benefit to the Counties in the district. ...

I have been of the opinion the purpose of Affirmative Action was to insure the government, institutions, et al, assured these entities reflect the peoples that make up the population as a whole. As an example all "government" assisted universities must apply these principles when considering admission. Why do these principals not apply to college and professional athletics?...

I find it rather appalling the recent rally in Shelbyville fails to recognize the real people who were responsible for organizing the event so as to insure the safety of all people and property. These people are Chief Jan Phillips of the SPD along with his team and Sheriff Austin Swing and his team...

The events of the recent past occurring near the Left Coast have once again brought forth the expected plethora of platitudes, pandering to a particular political base that never, never results even remotely in a solution for the problem at hand. In the instant case the horrific events in Las Vegas has once again elevated the gun control argument to the forefront. ...

Steve, Note ClarkDV entry to your, "A non-political question,......,posted by you on Mon. Oct. 17th. This is a perfect example of the looney left's cowardly, imbecilic bovine scatology. A classic example of not being able to handle the message, so let's shoot the messenger...

The pending election for President is perhaps the most important in history when viewed from the standpoint of the survival of our constitutional republic, capitalistic form of government. Four more years of the actions and policies of the past eight years will ensure we will be a banana republic with no bananas...

Since there is much talk today about outsourcing jobs, I thought this piece might be of interest. I first posted it about 18 months ago, so please forgive if any of the stats or other is dated. The United States is racing to be the first post-industrial nation in history. ...

There is a group extant that believes they are not subject to the laws of the United States, including tax laws, nor laws of any political subdivision such as state and local laws. This group call themselves Sovereign Citizens. The Sovereign Citizen Movement is the nation's top domestic terror threat according to the FBI...

Amazingly the good Democrats are severely beating Trump badly about the head and shoulders for stating the Russians might consider finding the deleted emails from the infamous basement server on the estate of Hillary. Since we have been told emphatically and often the emails contained only receipes, yoga lessons, personal messages to family and friends, etc, why the outrage? Could we have been lied to....again?...

As was alluded to by a previous commenter, the Russians hacked the DNC computers. We know this because the Democratic Party told us. Interestingly, we are supposed to further know the Russians could not have possibly found the computer in Hillary's basement...

After Bernie loquaciously thanked his supporters, his first rant was directed at the issue of income inequality. He immediately assailed the one percent who, he said, own 85% of the wealth in this country. A few short minutes later he lauded one Hillary Clinton and emphatically avered,"She must be elected President," but he failed to mention, SHE IS FIRMLY ENSCONCED IN THE ONE PERCENT!...

I wonder why there is such controversy about locating the new jail. It seems we have those who believe we should spend a large sum of taxpayers money on a site for the new jail. I have not heard anyone mention a site that might be perfect that is already owned by the County...
