there is no such thing as 'americas values' there are hundreds of millions of individuals,, without a monolithic value system

my values are in tact



the country was already divided,, nothing got better or worse on that front under Obama

the constitution is in tact and OBama never 'attacked' it

millions more have healthcare, for which I am grateful

there were no political attack dogs against 'anyone' who opposed him or half of congress would be under investigations,,lol


all candidates 'lie', in a culture that has hijacked the word to mean 'anything that doesnt exactly align with the facts I found'


our defenses are just as strong if not stronger since we dont have so much of our military deployed to the middle east

and our allies have not become our enemies

nor has anyone who 'swore' hatred been promoted or supported


presidents rarely 'live off of' the taxpayer anymore,, if anything they just earn more,, but they 'live off of' continued work in consulting and speaking income as well as appearances


and yes, I will miss the first family and wish them well




I guess the Muslim brotherhood, Hezbollah, Iran, Cuba, and Al Qaeda (the Syria rebels he and Clinton backed in Syria) don't count then?

Obama has been best president ever,


I will certainly miss the first family, but feel good that they can finally live their life as a family


After destroying Americas values, dividing the country, raising the national debt by 10 Trillion $, attacking our Constitution and rights under it, our health care, opening our borders to and protecting illegals who have broken our laws he swore an oath to defend and protect, used our depts of govt as his own political attack dogs against anyone who opposed him or his agenda, lied to the people, weakened our defenses and made enemies of our allies while promoting and supporting those who have sworn their hatred of us and the destruction of those allies.....

and will now live off the American taxpayer he has victimized by his actions and policies the rest of his life....

and you will miss him and wish him well?

The Times They Are A-Changin'
Bob Dylan

Come gather around people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
And if your breath to you is worth saving
Then you better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changing

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no telling who that it's naming
For the loser now will be later to win
Cause the times they are a-changing

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's the battle outside raging
It'll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changing

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is rapidly aging
Please get out of the new one if you can't lend your hand
Cause the times they are a-changing

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slowest now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is rapidly fading
And the first one now will later be last
Cause the times they are a-changing

And about temperament again? You were saying Mrs Clinton?

CNN reporter tells me Hillary became physically violent towards Robby Mook and John Podesta around midnight; had to be briefly restrained.

He added that Clinton may have been in a drunken rage …

She was. I posted about that too. She was in a “psychotic drunken rage” according to my reporter friend. Doctor added sedatives to the mix. http://t.co/jZv376ydDM

And the piece ends....

Thank goodness for the rest of us, she isn’t going to be the actual leader of our nation. This kind of behavior shows that Trump was most definitely the correct choice for President.

Amen to that!

Group of U-Va. students, faculty ‘deeply offended’ by Thomas Jefferson being quoted at school he founded

In 1819, well after helping to found the United States of America, Thomas Jefferson founded the University of Virginia in Charlottesville.

It was the state’s first true public university.

Known as the “Father of the University of Virginia,” Jefferson was laid to rest at his home in Monticello, less than 10 miles from his school.

Jefferson embodied the contradictions of his time. He was a slave owner, who wrote “all men are created equal” in the Declaration of Independence. But Martin Luther King Jr., for example, regularly evoked Jefferson’s words in his speeches. On Sept. 12, 1962, King spoke at the New York Civil War Centennial Commission’s Emancipation Proclamation Observance in New York City. There he said, “Jefferson with keen perception saw that the festering sore of slavery debilitated white masters as well as the Negro. He feared for the future of white children who were taught a false supremacy. His concern can be summed up in one quotation, ‘I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just.’”

Post-Election Protests Largely Contained to States Clinton Won

The protests that have spread to cities across the country in the wake of Donald Trump's victory have reached levels not seen after elections in recent memory, experts said.

And though they have been bigger in scope than prior protests -- most of which surrounded the 2000 election where the winner was not determined for weeks after the vote -- the demonstrations have largely been confined to cities in states that Hillary Clinton won.

Celebrities Getting Cold Feet About Leaving the U.S. After Trump's Victory

Before Donald Trump's stunning election victory, dozens of celebrities - including Chelsea Handler, Whoopi Goldberg and Amy Schumer - said they would leave the country if he won the presidency.

Now, they're not so sure...

Chelsea Handler, who hosts “Chelsea” on Netflix, tearfully said on her show Thursday that she will remain in the U.S.

“It’s so easy to say throw in the towel and that we’re going to leave or I’m going to move to Spain, because I want to move to Spain. I really, really want to move to Spain right now,” she told her audience. “And everyone in my office is like, 'You have a responsibility, you have a voice and you need to use it and you have to be there.'"

Goldberg told viewers of "The View" on Thursday that she had been "incorrectly lumped in" with celebrities who had claimed they would leave if Trump was elected.

I hope Cali does secede from the US! Trumps wall can run right up the border to Oregon!

The US would be much better off without that liberal bastion of senseless law makers who think our Constitution is only a suggestion. Who send the likes of people like Feinstein and Piglosi as Reps to DC....

Good riddance I say!

You'd think a Trump election would send a pretty clear message that the DC dynasties are dead. Of course anyone with any brain power knows liberals are not so good at reading reality or caring about facts. laugh

Trumps gonna need more than draino to clean that putrid swamp in DC, but I wish him the best of luck in doing so. I would have preferred Ron Paul for the job or someone of his ethics and morals, but if it's Trump it's OK with me as long as it finally gets done!

Chelsea is her mothers clone, not her daughter! The whinny little clone is off to a good start using funds from a supposed charity as her private bank account. She's just like her parents, learned her lessons well. Used charity funds for the last decade to pay her bills, fund her elaborate wedding to an investment banker and hedge fund manager (typical....Her mother swore to put people like him in check..... yeah right! laugh ) just for starters.

If she runs I hope she's met with the same end her mother received from the Trump Train as it rolled over her like a landslide. bigsmile

We all need a little counseling to adjust to the new Trump presidency...Hillary supporters have experienced a death in the family.
Death to corruption and political bribery.
Death to non- accountability for ones actions.
Death to ignorance of the plights of our people.
Death to our party lines, democrat and republican, for I do not view Trump as a true republican, but more of a servant of the people, and both parties certainly are guilty of the problems listed above.
He may just show us all how easy it, when common sense takes over.
Maybe this is wishful thinking.
Only time will tell.
:flag_us: G O T R U M P :flag_us:


none of these things have died


just the common sense that a businessman,, especially this one, can be as corrupt as a politician or a policeman or any other person in any other profession


because corrupt is a result of character and not a job requirement or description


IGNORANCE Still abounds,,,its common sense that's taking a beating

hopefully Trump is actually a brilliant man who realized this more than the rest and used it only to get the votes he needed

hopefully, he isn't truly one of the ignorant leading the ignorant



Yeah.... as corrupt as a bias liberal media makes you out to be

Clinton Shills Need to Be Cleaned out of Mainstream Media

The media bears responsibility for Clinton's loss in the general election—they helped rig the primaries against Sanders

Democratic pundits and shamelessly partisan journalists in the mainstream media have predictably reacted to Hillary Clinton’s embarrassing defeat to Donald Trump by blaming everyone but Hillary Clinton. But Clinton’s implosion signals their own demise and they need to purge Clinton shills out of the mainstream media.

It was obvious to anyone paying attention this election that the media heavily favored Clinton’s campaign. The WikiLeaks emails from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Clinton campaign chair John Podesta provided further insight into the extent the media coordinated with the Clinton campaign to manufacture consent for her candidacy.

There is no personal responsibility in the mainstream media, but the blame for Clinton’s loss to Trump should be placed just as equally with the Clinton campaign as with the Democratic Party establishment, who rigged the primaries for the candidate their corporate donors most preferred.

In a 2014 segment, CNN’s Chris Cuomo said, with regard to Clinton and the speculation as to when she would announce her campaign, “we couldn’t help any more than we have. She’s got just a free ride from the media, we’re the biggest ones promoting her campaign.” The extent of that promotion was highly unethical, as revealed by WikiLeaks and several investigative journalist reports. CNN severed ties with DNC interim chair Donna Brazile because she forwarded CNN debate questions to the Clinton campaign—yet the network has not explained how she obtained them.

CNN also frequently had pundits praise Clinton on air without disclosing their financial ties to her campaign. The Intercept reported in May 2016 that an Op-Ed published by CNN under Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed’s name was actually written and sent to the network by a Clinton Super PAC. CNN was dubbed by Bernie Sanders supporters as the “Clinton News Network“ for its overt bias, as the network’s correspondents either disproportionately denigrated the Sanders campaign, or completely refused to cover it.

Like most mainstream media outlets, CNN’s attention was overwhelming focused on Trump, who was cited in an April 2015 email released by WikiLeaks as a “pied-piper” candidate the Clinton campaign and the DNC needed to elevate themselves as legitimate.

MSNBC was no better than CNN. Joy Reid developed a reputation for hyperbolic defenses of Clinton, and her Twitter feed has further devolved into incoherent partisan drivel blaming Sanders supporters for Clinton’s loss. Rachel Maddow featured political commentators with ties to the Clintons, and neglected to disclose those ties. She also premiered pro-Clinton ads on her show from Clinton’s Super-PACs, and was a purveyor of the Nevada chair throwing conspiracy created to smear Sanders and his supporters. Chris Hayes stooped low enough to invite Clinton hit man David Brock onto his show to spew Clinton propaganda on air. WikiLeaks also revealed Chuck Todd held a party for Clinton campaign communication director Jennifer Palmieri while she was working for the campaign.

Nearly every major newspaper in the country formally endorsed Clinton before their state’s respective primaries after publishing skewed coverage in her favor for months. The New York Times employed no pro-Sanders opinion columnists, and several of their journalists were exposed in WikiLeaks emails allowing the Clinton campaign to plant, proofread and edit stories to their liking. The Washington Post‘s opinion, editorial pages and blogs consisted of one voice denouncing Sanders while praising Clinton. “Democrats would be insane to nominate Bernie Sanders” read a Washington Post headline just days before the Iowa caucuses. Their editorial board claimed Sanders’ campaign was “fiction-filled” the next day.

The Associated Press, Boston Globe, Politico and other media outlets were revealed by WikiLeaks to have been complicit in being fed propaganda from the Clinton campaign to publish as autonomous journalism. Other journalists who tout themselves as progressives are now trying to save face by praising Bernie Sanders, but they participated in the same hyperbolic fear mongering of Trump and praised Hillary Clinton when it became popular to do so after the Democratic National Convention. The mainstream media’s obsession with denouncing Trump and praising Clinton further fueled the resentment of elitism represented by the latter. Many of these mainstream media outlets subverted democracy by propping up Clinton, and they bear much of the responsibility for her loss in the general election—as they do for helping the DNC and Clinton campaign rig the primaries against Bernie Sanders.

It's truly amazing! The man has not spent one day in office yet and they protest his policies.

He has been "accused" (like Clinton) of actions against women (no proof or evidence of any kind, just a tape of 2 guys talking) but never charged. Still they protest and proclaim his guilt without charge or trial. Yet they won't believe evidence, facts, or proof that Clinton could even possibly be guilty, even when shown (tho not very often, in very little detail, and with the liberal spin applied) by their own "Clinton News Network" or one of the other 7 liberal networks.

Even kids in High School not old enough to vote yet! Liberal teachers have them all fired up, then cancel classes for them to have time to cope..... and send them into the streets to riot.

Liberals at their finest showing their true nature when they don't get what they want! And they want liberal leadership for our country? NO THANK YOU! slaphead

One of the all time greats! We'll miss you Leonard! RIP old friend! sad

Leonard Cohen Dead at 82

Leonard Cohen, a hugely influential singer and songwriter, whose work spanned five decades, died at the age of 82. Cohen's label, Sony Music Canada, confirmed his death on the singer's Facebook page.

"It is with profound sorrow we report that legendary poet, songwriter and artist, Leonard Cohen has passed away," the statement read. "We have lost one of music's most revered and prolific visionaries. A memorial will take place in Los Angeles at a later date. The family requests privacy during their time of grief." A cause of death was not given.

Cohen was the dark eminence among a small pantheon of extremely influential singer-songwriters to emerge in the Sixties and early Seventies. Only Bob Dylan exerted a more profound influence upon his generation, and perhaps only Paul Simon and fellow Canadian Joni Mitchell equaled him as a song poet. Cohen's haunting bass voice, nylon-stringed guitar patterns, Greek-chorus backing vocals shaped evocative songs that dealt with love and hate, sex and spirituality, war and peace, ecstasy and depression. He was also the rare artist of his generation to enjoy artistic success into his Eighties, releasing his final album, You Want It Darker, earlier this year.

"I never had the sense that there was an end," he said in 1992. "That there was a retirement or that there was a jackpot."
