Bobby Tony, it had to happen.

I'm not comfortable with it either, but, at this point, there is no alternative.

Trump, because of his nature, has made all the Democrats, and the unprincipled Democrat Media show their hand, and now we know their game plan, and how they collectively just don't care about our Republic ... not one whit.

Until Trump shows me far worse than what I have seen, I am sitting in the front car of the Trump Train.

One more thing B.T.: That last comment of yours is very insightful, and would make another outstanding post on BCN.

Homebrun here Bobby Tony.

You took one of my top 50 favorite movies and used it as a perfect metaphor to explain the incredible behavior of the Democrat party and the Democrat Media.

Thank-you.

I remember that Alex. It was a bold move by Obama that would define his presidency.

This desire to dictate rather than legislate is a big part of why Obama's presidency is one of the most unsuccessful and corrupt ones in the history of the United States.

Remarkably, there are many Americans who lack the real knowledge to know better.

You hit the nail on the head Bobby Tony.

And now we know what it means to patriot: Standing on principle no matter what occurs, on the legacy issues that made this nation great.

You intrinsically know what that means. Diane does too.

I often think we would all be much better off if we still communicated that way in a predominate manner.

Bobby Tony, you have lived a most interesting life.

Actually Congress has a rating in the high 30 percentile now.

Must be the Trump effect, and I'm not talking about TDS. Maybe Trump is making congress look better, for good or ill.

I am nowhere near retired, but I learned how to play the guitar after 60, well enough to play Creedence tunes, some Elton John, some James Taylor, etc. ... can play well enough to write a tune if I want to ... Lord knows, I got plenty of words in me.

If I practiced often, if I had the time, I think I could do better, and push through walls.

What I am saying here is: I don't think I could have done this when I was younger. I was worried about too much, too often. I worried what other people thought of me, and that sure is not a factor with me anymore.

Interesting how all that works. I only need to make me and my Lord happy. Plus, I treat everyone close to me with respect, but, otherwise, I don't care.

We always heard nothing could be done to cut bureaucracy in the Federal government.

Maybe the best way to do it is to get on Mr. Trump's bad side.

Go Trump!

I know I sound like a broken record, but: I really did not like Candidate Trump that much; however, supported him because of the obvious alternative, but ...

I really do like President Trump ... a lot. This guy governs just like I did at the county level when I was a county commissioner for 18 years; however, on much larger level, but the objective is the same: 1) Keep your promises as best you can; 2) cut wasteful spending; 3) limit the scope of government; 4) bust up special interest when you can; and 5) always stand up for the little guy against Liberals and Cronies, who use government like they alone own it, usurping the rights of the People.

Yeah, I like President Trump a whole bunch right now. He is pissing off all the right people.

Outstanding analogy: Canary Trap. There is so much one could do by embedding data, if they know what they are doing.

I'm amazed at just how far some people will go to further the Progressive agenda of Open Borders and Democrat Hegemony.

General Flynn is just the beginning for these Socialists.

In the PM, February 14, 2017:

After watching often vapid Democrat lawmakers today stand as one, in a moment of clarity, and after 8 years of a scandal ridden Obama presidency, I watched them finally call for a probe into that of General Michael Flynn, the Trump administration, and, remarkably, I agree that congress must investigate.

While the Democrats diligently work to dig up dirt on former Democrats Flynn and Trump, I will be expecting congress to find who approved the listening in on General Flynn, and, who, moreover, leaked that transcript to the Democrat Media.

The leaking of the transcript is a felony, and, while it is important that leakers are rooted out. I am most looking forward to seeing someone, probably from the Obama administration, go to jail.

Maybe, this will begin a process of draining the swamp that got so deep and so sour during the Hussein years. Maybe more could go to jail. This would be a good thing.

There is no substitute for leadership.

It is the management of human wills as one cohesive force that will keep a far greater number of soldiers alive.

The image Colonel Moore and Command Sgt. Major Basil Plumley is a great one. Plumley was played by Sam Elliot in the film, and appeared to be a fabulous leader as well. When the Army has leaders like Moore and Plumley, they deserve the very best Commander-in-chief that the American people can give them.

Beautifully written about a great American Hero in charge of a battalion of heroes.

Lt. Colonel Hal Moore kept his men completely in charge of that LZ even when it appeared that all was lost, and that their slaughter, and, or capture was imminent.

Thank-you for recounting this historic event for the reader of BCN. I for one appreciates a true true told by some who truly knows the horror of war.

February 8, 2017: The Ultra Liberal 9th Circuit Federal Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of Washington State as to what is best for North Carolina and 48 other states and DC as to what is best in regards to Immigration travel, which is solely the purview of the President and the congress of all of the people of the United States, as per the UNited States Constitution.
This may be unprecedented territory, as our protections have now been allocated, in some small measure, to the state of Washington.
Liberals are funny when they try to govern, or adjudicate, and what is really humorous is how they rally around one another as if they have some great wisdom that is beyond the rest of us, and the Constitution the provides our nation structure.

You are both wrong. Alex is wrong too.

It is not important to know real stuff anymore. I am finding that out everyday now.

That is a great quote.

I think what Trump said about Schumers "fake tears" was not only funny, but most appropriate.

No need to do it now; the new U.S. Supreme Court will hear Virginia's bathroom /locker room bill soon, and that could break the supreme court's tie on HB 2 verdict.

Tom, I do believe that Steve Bannon meant that most journalist need to '"shut up", listen and get smarter before they write the mostly stupid stuff that they write, and that they don't write as well', which may be the largest component as to why most journalists are so pathetic at what they do, and can't do very well.

Still, how many comedians are so totally filled with mirth. It can be infectious.

I think we owe Squirting Chuck and explanation: "You're wimp, a hypocrite, and Neophyte Trump will take your petty, unpatriotic ass to the woodshed, where I will watch and record."

We are working on the two camera concept, where one just does closeups.

Now, that is funny. Oversexed "fat chicks" is just not funny.

I just reread your comment. Good stuff, and no, Little Chuckie Schumer could never be Jack Lemmon: beaufortcountynow.com

And speaking of comedians from before, Chuck Schumer's cousin, Comedian Amy Schumer, is not funny either - too vulgar, with no real punchline. I think she is just an oversexed, overweight girl, who makes big girls feel safe.

Chuck Schumer is a laughable joke, but only as a "laughing stock". Still, he is not as incorrigible as Senator Pansy Voice, but he is getting there.

You missed nothing, and you still got the great music.

This generation's techno pop is awful. Went to bowl tonight and I had a bellyful of bad music.

Stu Ridge would be a great cover, but, I don't care about folks knowing about my past nearly 40 years ago. I've more than made up for it. It helps being a practicing Christian. I do it for my spirit, my soul, not my reputation.

I will always love this classic Joe Friday. We, Hippies, use to get stoned then watch Dragnet, and laugh our fool asses off.

For many decades, I often look back on my formative years, before knowing the sobriety of a young marriage, and I laugh at the boy I was for too long.

Looks like Jack Webb got the last laugh here.

That is one of the coolest things I have ever heard of. Those are special moments.

Please try to find some way to develop that into a post to help preserve that special moment for posterity. Steve Martin never told jokes, didn't cuss that much and pretty much stayed away from overt vulgarity and was funny. Even my kids love Steve Martin.
Commented: Sunday, January 29th, 2017 @ 3:42 pm By: Stan Deatherage
George Carlin, Richard Pryor, and Steve Martin will always be my favorite standups from that era.

For new comedians, I like Tom Papa: beaufortcountynow.com

Most comedians should stay away from the governing side of politics because it is way over their intellect, and whenever possible Comedians should reduce the vulgar talk. Too much gets real old, real fast.

Now, this is pure politics to get the Education Industry whipped up.

If Cooper really cared about education and teachers, he would work to put discipline back into the classrooms and then he would create a meritocracy within the school system to take the money used now for teachers and pay the best more and the rest less.

Some teachers are paid far too much and some too little.
