In life, when you find out your friend is not there for you, will not defend you, ignores you, betrays you, fails you, and doesn’t even like you – you move on. It’s better to be alone than to face the pain of betrayal over and over again. Last night was the last straw.

Is it just me or does anybody else find this format to be very clunky?

The other day I got an e-mail from the NSRC (Chairman Rick Scott) that I found to be completely offensive in it's tone.

Actor Peter Fonda, the son of a real Hollywood legend, Henry Fonda, who became a sorta movie star in his own right after both writing and starring in the counter-culture classic “Easy Rider,” has died.

"While James Comey jet sets across the country selling books and espousing misinformation about our President, he is hiding from the truth. Comey, like many other Obama appointees, including Hillary Clinton and Loretta Lynch, has ignored our laws and have gotten away with it. This bypass of due diligence has been dismissively overlooked due to their connections to high-powered, politically-connected friends. This cannot be tolerated. The truth must prevail and justice must be served. Today, we see the law ignored for the political elite while they are being bestowed with special treatment and free passes. This became abundantly clear in...

Special Counsel Robert Mueller laid out the law clearly in his indictment of numerous Russian nationals and groups for their attempts to interfere in the 2016 election. As the indictment notes, the U.S. Department of Justice administers the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA). FARA establishes a reporting protocol for foreign nationals, including non-government individuals "attempting to influence U.S. public opinion, policy, and law." To its credit, the FBI seems to have done a good job tracking Russian individuals and entities that violated FARA even if there was no evidence of collusion with the Trump campaign or Russian hacking of the...

On Saturday’s “MSNBC Live,” Rep. Francis Rooney (R-FL) stated that “some freedoms are going to have to be given up” to ensure unstable people don’t get weapons and that he will agree to act on gun control, but “not necessarily for normal people.” He also expressed uncertainty as to whether people should be allowed to own AR-15s and argued for making schools harder targets. Rooney said, “Well, we are one of the most open societies in the world. I think that each one of these heinous crimes raises the bar and makes us — compels that we, as a nation,...

For those who have forgotten the 1986 Simpson-Mazzoli Act of 1986, here is a refresher. https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/99/s1200 At the time, Congress PROMISED that the Amnesty given to ILLEGAL ALIENS would be a one time deal and would NEVER be brought up, again. President Reagan foolishly signed the bill into law.

If Goodell keeps this up, next week they may have to give away game tickets.

After this 2016 season which the NFL became even more about celebrity and overpaid players bound and determined to express their opinions about everything that has nothing at all to do with football or the human competition involved, I have decided to "take a knee", myself. Roger Goodell seems to be on a mission to turn the NFL to a sissified version of it's former self. Or, into the American version of soccer. Either way, the owners may be making a ton of money, the the heart and soul of the game is being trashed faster and more completely than...

Living in TEXAS, I have been hearing campaign ads being aired by Senator John Cornyn that really are irritating me. In these ads, one would not know that Senator Cornyn IS the Senate Minority Whip or that he's been in the Senate for almost a full 2 terms (11 years). Further, he paints a self portrait as being a Real Conservative just like me. In light of this, I am preparing to fill out an Employee Performance Evaluation form and then send it to him. Can anybody recommend a good and comprehensive form with which to do this? I'm also...

Sean Hannity constantly reminds us that he is a Conservative and NOT a Republican. I get that. I consider myself to be a hard core Constitutional Conservative as well. What I fail to understand is how Sean Hannity keeps bring people like KARL ROVE and MITT ROMNEY on his show to talk about the issues of the day. Neither one of these gentlemen have an ounce of credibility as Conservatives as far as I can tell. Anybody else have some serious thoughts on this?

Okay, who gives a Rats Arse about the 2014 Stupor Bowl? I sure don't.

Why we went to war against King George and why we need to IMPEACH Obama

Just out of curiosity,has anybody investigated the possible linkage with OWS (dnc)and the perps in the recent string of mass shootings? We all KNOW that had any of these people been tied in any way to the Conservative Movement, the Media Pukes would be screaming that from the rafters. Instead, they are deathly silent. That makes me very curious as to what they do know and aren't telling us. Food for thought........ "The End Justifies The Means" "Never let a good Crisis go to waste" "....Fundamentally change America...." "For the Children....."

I am writing to express my displeasure with the decision of ESPN to pull Hank Williams, Jr. from your Monday Night Football opening. Mister Williams did nothing more than express his opinion on a television show. The last time that I checked, we still have a United States Constitution (I served to defend it in the Marine Corps) and we still have the freedom to express our displeasure with our government and our elected officials. There never seemed to be an issue with that when President Bush was in office. Since you choose to ignore Mr. Williams right to free...

I have a real problem with the SRM constantly referring to the douchebag that was arrested for his plot to make an attack on Fort Hood as a "soldier". The term "soldier" should not be sullied or denigrated in connection to this worthless bag of semi-human debris. Our Soldiers are volunteering to put their lives on the line in order to protect and preserve our freedom and way of life. They are always the first in line for budget cuts even though they don't ask for much. Their lives with their families are constantly disrupted by the policy makers that...

HAPPY 100th Birthday to Marion Morrison of Iowa. For those of you that are from Rio Linda, Baghdad, San Francisco or Tehran, he is also known as "The Duke".....or JOHN WAYNE! SEMPER FI, SIR!! THANK GOD for AMERICANS LIKE YOU!!!

Here's something that I have been pondering over and thought "What the heck? Let's toss it out for discussion....."

Excerpted from article: "A group that supports the U.S. military is demanding an apology from Newsweek magazine's Eleanor Clift, who recently characterized America's armed forces as a "mercenary Army." Her comments -- made this past weekend on the syndicated TV program "The McLaughlin Group" -- were "unfounded and grossly inappropriate," said the Freedom Alliance. In an Aug. 30 letter to Clift, Freedom Alliance President Tom Kilgannon asked her to retract her comment and apologize to the armed forces and their families. Clift made the comment during a discussion about military recruiting efforts: "But I think what we're coming to grips...
