Donald Trump graciously called and congratulated Ted Cruz on his WI victory: www.redstate.com/...

I congratulate Senator Ted Cruz for his spirited and convincing win here in the great state of Wisconsin. We both put our hearts and souls into the race, but his ideas won the day. However, I take solace in the fact that hundreds of thousands of Wisconsinites vote for our campaign, and I look forward to winning the GOP Primary, and uniting with Ted Cruz to allow me to beat Hillary Clinton in the general election. Again, congratulations to Ted, and God Bless Wisconsin!

Actually the Donald did not issue that statement, instead, his campaign graciously issued the following: www.redstate.com/...

Donald J. Trump withstood the onslaught of the establishment yet again. Lyin’ Ted Cruz had the Governor of Wisconsin, many conservative talk radio show hosts, and the entire party apparatus behind him. Not only was he propelled by the anti-Trump Super PAC’s spending countless millions of dollars on false advertising against Mr. Trump, but he was coordinating `with his own Super PAC’s (which is illegal) who totally control him. Ted Cruz is worse than a puppet— he is a Trojan horse, being used by the party bosses attempting to steal the nomination from Mr. Trump. We have total confidence that Mr. Trump will go on to win in New York, where he holds a substantial lead in all the polls, and beyond. Mr. Trump is the only candidate who can secure the delegates needed to win the Republican nomination and ultimately defeat Hillary Clinton, or whomever is the Democratic nominee, in order to Make America Great Again.

I can only imagine what his excuse will be when he loses the general election!

WOW, Chris Matthews Tough on Priebus

In one tough display of emotion and facts, Matthews laid down the law to Priebus this morning on Morning Joe. I did not watch the show live this morning, but when I saw the video, I found it tough and truthful as Chris went almost non-stop ripping Priebus with all the slime they have tried to dump on President Obama. Former NBC Nightly News Anchorman Tom Brokaw tried to defend Priebus by saying both sides do it (typical fair media bullshit).

I try to keep up with the polls on a daily basis. I look over the latest polls and the Daily Presidential Tracking Polls. Even though Rasmussen is slanted 4-5 points to the right , I look at them also. In the past few days, Rasmussen has had Obama down by four points. BUT, in the last two days, OBAMA has been surging, thanks to RYAN!

Rasmussent Tracking Poll NOW has Obama UP by one point. I know it is not much, but that is a gain of 5 points in just a couple days. Usually, according to Nate Silver, the Nominee gets a four point bounce afte naming a VP nominee. Wow!!!

Reince Priebus- the Chairman of the Republican National Committee called the Senate Majority Leader- Harry Reid- a "Dirty Liar". http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/...

in reference to Senator Reid's remarks concerning Rmoney's taxes for the past ten years.

Where is the OUTRAGE that the head of the GOP would lash out in such a demeaning manner? How dare he!!

EVERY Democrat should DEMAND that Mr. Priebus apologize Immediately and demand proof.

MR. Priebus- WE DEMAND AN APOLOGY!!
HAVE YOU NO DECENCY?

Congratulations Tea Party- The Stock Market is Crashing

Congratulations to the Teahadists! You succeeded where others failed. The Stock Market is down 500 points today. You brought back Hoovernomics- the philosophy that government works best when the budget is balanced, even in times of recession or depression. You brought back Hoovernomics, not because most sane people wanted it, but because you threatened to blow up the economy (by not allowing the government to raise the debt ceiling and allow it to pay its bills). You got what you wanted and the economy is diving into a hole! The budget is being cut by trillions of dollars with no new revenue. Incredibly Stupid during a Major recession where unemployment is above 9%. This will go into the Record Books as one of the stupidest things ever done by Congress! Everyone is worried that we are headed to another recession BECAUSE OF YOU! WHY THE HELL DIDN"T YOU LISTEN TO US. You listened to FOOLS - Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh?? Even Wall Street knew you were wrong!

AND WE TOLD YOU SO!!!!!
YOU DID NOT LISTEN TO US!!!
EVEN WALL STREET KNOWS IT DOES NOT WORK!!!

Economics 101 - DO NOT BALANCE A BUDGET DURING A RECESSION>
Yes, that is the rule of Economics- when the economy is in trouble, it is government's responsiblity to take up the slack, to help get people JOBS, to spend more!.
MY goodness people, we learned this back in the 1930s.

SO Congratulations to all Tea Partiers. Celebrate now.

THIS may be your last hurrah. Your time is OFFICIALLY over. Go back to where you came from and get back to your teabagging. BECAUSE we don't want your BS anymore!

What Will Happen 8/3?

If the debt ceiling is not raised by 8/3, the Treasury will only receive about 60% of the revenue needed. This means tough choices have to be made on what and how much to pay. Should salaries be paid? Pay Social Security? Contractors? Bonds? Interest payments? There are no easy answers. There are no correct answers.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/...

About $100 Billion in US Bonds mature on 8/4. Will there be enough money to pay for those? Usually, costs are offset by selling new bonds, but that cannot happen. Because of uncertainty, Treasury bond interest rates will skyrocket. This not only affects future interest payments, but everything tied into it. Mortgages and credit card interest will rise sharply kicking the economy in the gut.

Why doesn't the GOP understand these things?
The Congress should just pass a clean bill with No Strings Attached and save the Theatrics for the next Budget Bill package.

England has come a long way since the Colonies declared their independence 230+ yrs ago. But still they have this pathetic joke called royalty. Lawrence O'Donnell does a fantastic take-down on The Last Word on English royalty. He also describes the fascination the MSM has with this event even though we are in 3 wars along with internal budget debates at home. Watch this video and take the poll afterwards...

Actually, Stephen that is too kind. I actually like the Three Stooges. But, as you can see in the video below, Mr. King spoke at a rally in Florida where he is vacationing. He calls himself a snowbird- that is those rich folks who go to Florida in the winter and back north in the Spring (snowbird season is almost over).
Even though he admits he is "rich", he says he doesn't pay enough taxes.

from
http://www.mediaite.com/...

The author gave a speech of support and railed against Scott, comparing he, Wisconsin’s Gov. Scott Walker, and the “Tea Party guy” from his home state of Maine, Gov. Paul LePage, to “Larry, Curly, and Moe.”

“Now, you might say, ‘What are you doing up there? Aren’t you rich?’ The answer is, ‘Thank God, yes.’
And you know what? As a rich person, I pay 28% taxes. What I want to ask you is, why don’t I pay 50%? Why is everybody in my bracket not paying 50%? The Republicans will say, from John Boehner to Mitch McConnell to Rick Scott, that we can’t do that because, if we tax guys like me, there won’t be any jobs. It’s bull! It’s total bull!”

Stephen King did an awesome job!. He might even star Rick Scott as a star in his next Horror novel.

Yesterday, during a live broadcast of the Wisconsin protests, Fox News reporter Mike Tobin said he was"attacked," "punched," "hit," and "battered" by a protester, but footage of the incident has never been released. Someone else, however, did release their own recording to www.liveleaks.com .

The recording below shows what took place, where the reporter was touched or patted and the incident was immediately blown out of proportion.

Just another example how Fox News Lies for absolutely No reason but to get public opinion behind their right-wing agenda.

Jared Loughner posted his own YouTube Video a few days before being suspended from Pima Community College.
Delve into the mind of someone who has lost ALL grasp of reality and is in his own illusion. Sadly, he did not receive the help and hospitalization that he desperately needed.

All across this land, independent voters are turning on their TVs and their laptops and grimacing at what is happening in DC...

Things are occurring that are causing them to grimace and wonder why they voted the way they did two months ago..
