I love Downton Abby...it was a history lesson of sorts, but I love Father Brown, Doc Martin and a whole list of English items...even the Royal Family....

I know there are a lot of people that can't stand to look at different life styles, thoughts, and I know America was born due to ‘taxation without representation’ and the English are today, have lost their ways, but so has America...

I love American history, not what is being taught in our schools today, but real American history, I love to read about our Presidents, Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt's...

The Civil War, how slavery was started and the way the slaves were treated, and have we changed that much? I used to think so, but since obuma has entered our scene, and what he and his wife could have done for the Black Community, obuma has ruined a lot of lives....

We are on a cliff right now, we can bring back America or we can go over the cliff and forget about how things were altogether, it's only up to us...

From the article:"We're rewarding wealth creation. We should be rewarding job creation."

Those lousy "wealth creators" should be ashamed of themselves. They make money and then just stuff it in a matress.

At least if they bought gold bars they would be creating jobs for miners, smelters, and gold dealers.

But no, they just keep piling up the cash.

Those worthless jerks, Gates, Jobs, Zuckerberg, Bezos, and others just continue collecting their incomes and no jobs result.

Then there are all those worthless investors in the stock market. Buying and holding shares of companies with total disregard of whether or not such companies have any employees. It's an outrage.

And don't even get me started on all those tycoons purchasing government bonds, just to stuff their home safes with the paper. That money could have been doing some good, feeding the poor, supplying cell phones to the needy, or giving loans to deserving solar industry companies.

What a terrible world we live in. We should support a revolution in order to make things better. Just like the Russians did. They killed the royal family and created a utopia where everybody is entitled to stand in line to get government bread.

We need a revolution like that in Venezuela, though it might be a good idea to stock up on toilet paper first.

I look forward to the day when the fences and machine guns are removed and people are allowed to freely leave the U.S. Holding them as economic prisoners is the height of immorality. They would be so much better off somewhere else. Say, Syria... or Canada, ... or Mexico, or China. Anywhere but here.

Klintons are worth north of 100 million.

The difference today is that instead of tyranny within a nation among competing empires, Britain, Germany, US, France etc., we have the emerging multi-national global tyranny.

Most of the candidates are compromised and represent globalist interests.

I’ve enjoyed seeing all the scenery, sets, costumes, etc.,
of “Downton Abbey” - keeping in mind all the while that the actors on that show DO NOT really live in that
humongous house. My guess is that most of them don’t live in
much fancier digs than most of us do. - The real couple that
lives there don’t have all that huge a bunch of servants &
even they can only live in one room at a time! - Same with
“Doc Martin”. Clunes is a total cutup compared to “Doc”.
Both he and Louisa are married to different folks. They
both have 14 or 15 yr. old kids. - Last night, Sherlock
was nutty; but I keep biting. :o(

In one of the earliest episodes of Downton the Dowager Countess (the character played by Dame Maggie Smith), is told by someone they are going up to London for the weekend. "What's a weekend?" she wonders aloud.

Rich Galen obviously didn't see Season 1, Episode 2 where the new Downton heir, Matthew Crawley, explains at dinner that he has gotten a job as a lawyer in nearby Ripon, but that he can still be involved in running the estate in the other hours of the day, and "of course I'll have the weekend."

To which the Dowager Countess queries, "What is a weekend?"
