Barry and The Moose vacationed in Hawaii with dozens of friends.


Yep. And, the lying, despicable, FAKE AS HECK press never took issue, with all of those over the top vacays, either.

RCH is called ‘Reach’ a common bird (usaf plane) flying in the Mideast...

Thanks much for adding that in!

The Messianic Wings

One of the most potent images in the song of Ha’azinu is the image of the eagle hovering over his nest of fledglings (Deuteronomy 32:11). In this metaphor, God, the eagle, comes to waken the fledglings in his nest, hovers over them, spreads his wings over them and finally lifts them on his wings in redemptive flight through the sky.

There are two synonyms for “wings” in this verse: kanaf, whose numerical value is 150, and evrah, whose numerical value is 208. Together, these two words equal 358, the numerical value of Mashiach. The eagle carrying the Jewish People on his wings is the Mashiach, carrying out his Divine Messianic mission. In the Torah portion of Yitro (Exodus 19:4) God also refers to the redemption from Egypt as redemption “on the wings of eagles.” Clearly, the eagle and his wings have messianic implications.

The Music of Redemption

What timing, NBC had to run an editors note today to a story they ran yesterday about how Trump didn’t visit any troops on Christmas.

It wasn't much of a secret while it was happening.

Sometimes too much information available on the Internet these days.

Dow soars 650 points, erases losses ...

Just one day, although very much on the upside, doesn't erase the cumulative sharp December losses. Hope it starts a new bull trend, but for now today might be viewed as just an upward tick in a sharply negative trend line.

Not from Iraq, where there are many more than in Syria.

They'll say the shoelaces weren't tied correctly, or some other nonsense. Then the media wonders why people laughs at, and ridicules them.

BS “news” from the worthless fake news NBC.

President Trump didn’t cancel his trip to the American military burial ground outside Paris in November.

The weather was awful and the Marine Corps pilots said it was to dangerous to fly their helicopters.

The Secret Service also forbade the trip.

It was not a decision made by the president.

Here's the Fox version.

But notice that Chris Stirewalt says the withdrawal from Syria was solely because of Erdogan's phone call, without mentioning that the Kurds were duplicitous, selling oil to Assad and romancing the Shiites, reminiscent of their switch of loyaties to the Shiites in Iraq.

And he dares to compare the recent Trump announcement with Obama's withdrawal of troops from Iraq in 2011 in order to be reelected, which cost us our victory there for the next 5 years.

I just want David Li and ABC news to know that Gerald Ford and Jimmah Carter didn’t visit me on any other GI on Christmas.

Just sayin
