A DAY IN THE LIFE OF JOE REPUBLICAN
Joe gets up at 6 a.m. and fills his coffeepot with water to prepare his morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards.
With his first swallow of water, he takes his daily medication. His medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to ensure their safety and that they work as advertised.
All but $10 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Joe gets it too.
He prepares his morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Joe's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
In the morning shower, Joe reaches for his shampoo. His bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for his right to know what he was putting on his body and how much it contained.
Joe dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air he breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for the laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
He walks on the government-provided sidewalk to subway station for his government-subsidized ride to work. It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation, which gives everyone the opportunity to be a contributor.
Joe begins his work day. He has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Joe's employer pays these standards because Joe's employer doesn't want his employees to call the union.
If Joe is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, he'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think he should lose his home because of his temporary misfortune.
It is noontime and Joe needs to make a bank deposit so he can pay some bills.
Joe's deposit is federally insured by the FDIC because some godless liberal wanted to protect Joe's money from unscrupulous bankers who ruined the banking system before the Great Depression.
Joe has to pay his underwritten mortgage and his below-market federal student loan because some elitist liberal decided that Joe and the government would be better off if he was educated and earned more money over his lifetime.
Joe also forgets that his in addition to his federally subsidized student loans, he attended a state funded university.
Joe is home from work. He plans to visit his father this evening at his farm home in the country. He gets in his car for the drive. His car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards to go along with the tax-payer funded roads.
He arrives at his boyhood home. His was the third generation to live in the house financed by Farmers' Home Administration because bankers didn't want to make rural loans.
The house didn't have electricity until some big-government liberal stuck his nose where it didn't belong and demanded rural electrification.
He is happy to see his father, who is now retired. His father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Joe wouldn't have to.
Joe gets back in his car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good.
He doesn't mention that the beloved Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Joe enjoys throughout his day.
Joe agrees:
"We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I'm a self-made man who believes everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."
Poor old Joe.

We Americans are quite fortunate that even the so called " living in poverty"live better than the majority of the world's population.
And when you take into consider that these gifts really come from God we should bow our heads in silence and thank him.
Democrat or Republican the founders predicated our Republic based on the fact that all of our freedoms come from God. Politicians from the time of our Declaration Of Independence have debated one another and so far we have preserved the fundamentals of this Republic. The 2016 election once again witnessed the need for a correction as the nation was heading in the wrong direction.

I am self satisfied that I changed my registration from Rep to Ind.
Our new Rep. President did not have to say this...totally and completely unnecessary.
These people he continues to attack and demean are hard working Americans who help protect us.
"President-elect Donald Trump mocked US intelligence officials on Tuesday in a tweet claiming his briefing on Russian cyberattacks was delayed, and once again cast doubt on their claims that Russia interfered with the presidential election.
"The 'Intelligence' briefing on so-called 'Russian hacking' was delayed until Friday, perhaps more time needed to build a case. Very strange!" Trump said on Twitter.
However, a senior US intelligence official immediately refuted Trump’s claim, saying the briefing with the heads of the NSA, CIA, DNI and the FBI was "always" scheduled for Friday, NBC News reported."

Trump is doing and saying/tweeting anything he can to discredit the intelligence community even before he is briefed on the Russian hackers. This is his M.O. The intel community can screw him six ways from Sunday when he needs them most.
Today is the day he is slated to tell us what he knows that no one else knows, presumably including the president. He told reporters he would tell them Tues or Wed, well Tues came and went with nothing, so today is the day. Anybody know what time this announcement will be made?

Who cares?
Liberals will not be satisfied unless they can find some minute connection with their failed election.
Republicans realize that this stuff is old news and that Obie is an idiot for attempting to step out of his area of experience to take on a bigger man than himself. Putin is a thug, but he has been around a long time and fights dirty. Obie's little hissy fit does nothing but make himself look weak. Obie has never been a leader and should not attempt to pose as one. A paper tiger fits him.

From my personal point of view, this did not have to be tweeted, no matter what. It begins the validation for me of....
1. His constant mean spirit nature, passed off during the campaign as simple politics but validated throughout out his life
2. My deep concern for his conduct in foreign relations. If he is looking for a fight with his own country's intelligence community even before sworn in, and doing it in public, then how does foreign policy get conducted. As many predict, our "enemies" will simply line up to annoy him and allow him, Bannon and Flynn get their revenge in some manner. Since he does not trust the United States of America publicly so much for patriotism
This to add to that validation.....Richard Branson, a very very rich man and by the way, extremely philanthropic man, shared this on his personal blog....
"Some years ago, Mr Trump invited me to lunch for a one-to-one meeting at his apartment in Manhattan. We had not met before and I accepted. Even before the starters arrived he began telling me about how he had asked a number of people for help after his latest bankruptcy and how five of them were unwilling to help. He told me he was going to spend the rest of his life destroying these five people.
He didn’t speak about anything else and I found it very bizarre. I told him I didn’t think it was the best way of spending his life. I said it was going to eat him up, and do more damage to him than them. There must be more constructive ways to spend the rest of your life. (Hopefully my advice didn’t lead to him running for President!)"
Meeting Donald Trump | Virgin (https://www.virgin.com/richard-branson/meeting-donald-trump)
This mans character has not changed one iota....this is as his followers like to say "Trump being Trump" Mean spirited and revengeful.
"I left the lunch feeling disturbed and saddened by what I’d heard. There are a lot of frightening things about this election; not least that policy has been pushed so far down the agenda. What concerns me most, based upon my personal experiences with Donald Trump, is his vindictive streak, which could be so dangerous if he got into the White House. For somebody who is running to be the leader of the free world to be so wrapped up in himself, rather than concerned with global issues, is very worrying."
It is striking to me that Trump picks to fight with the very people he will NEED in the future, and even more striking is doing it in public, I suppose to make the ridicule more worldwide.

Let me ask you another question.
There are a number of posters on here, who now assail me because i do not trust Trump at all.
Those same posters WITH ME BY THE WAY, assailed President Obama for "relationships" with Rev Jeremiah Wright and to the works of Sal Alinsky. I mean, they agreed with me and frankly I made a fool of myself by dwelling on it.
NOW...PRESENT day, those same posters and you of course are just fine with the President elect and this....
"A new video raises questions about President-elect Donald Trump's relationship with Joseph "Joey No Socks" Cinque, who once reportedly survived a mob hit and was associated with the infamous mob boss John Gotti.
The video shows Trump ringing in the new year on stage with Cinque at his Mar-a-Lago hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. The Secret Service told CNN everyone who attended the party was subject to screening via a metal detector.
Cinque was convicted in 1989 of criminal possession of stolen art, a felony. He was sentenced to "conditional discharge" in 1990, according to records provided by a New York Supreme Court clerk. CNN was told the actual indictment was destroyed in a fire.
Trump celebrates new year with convicted felon - CNNPolitics.com (http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/03/politics/donald-trump-joey-cinque-mob-new-years/)
Then of course there is this information...always available...
"Most of the coverage of the links between Trump and Putin’s Russia takes the GOP presidential nominee at his word—that he has lusted after a Trump tower in Moscow, and come up spectacularly short. But Trump’s dodge—that he has no businesses in Russia, so there is no connection to Putin—is a classic magician’s trick. Show one idle hand, while the other is actually doing the work.
The truth, as several columnists and reporters have painstakingly shown since the first hack of a Clinton-affiliated group took place in late May or early June, is that several of Trump’s businesses outside of Russia are entangled with Russian financiers inside Putin’s circle.
So, yes, it’s true that Trump has failed to land a business venture inside Russia. But the real truth is that, as major banks in America stopped lending him money following his many bankruptcies, the Trump organization was forced to seek financing from non-traditional institutions.
Donald Trump's Many, Many, Many, Many Ties to Russia (http://time.com/4***880/donald-trump-ties-to-russia/)
"This weekend, we finally learned the CIA’s professional conclusion about Russia’s involvement in our presidential elections: Russia hacked both the Democratic Party and the Clinton campaign, and the goal was to help Trump win. And the CIA isn’t out on a limb here: both the director of National Intelligence, who represents all 16 intelligence agencies, and the head of Homeland Security, have said Russia was behind the hacking. The FBI also holds Russia responsible for hacking, but hasn’t reached a conclusion about its motives.
We are only beginning to process the fact that a foreign country interfered with American democratic elections. But when it comes to Russia and its relationship with Donald Trump, the election hacking may be only the tip of the iceberg. The American public doesn't have access to the data the intelligence community—all 16 agencies combined—have on the Russian government, its banks and oligarchs, and their relationships with Trump's campaign, his business ventures, and the president-elect himself. That must change before January 20. The information needs to be made public."
Here’s What America Needs to Know About Trump and Russia - POLITICO Magazine (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/12/trump-russia-intelligence-need-to-know-214520)
"We know, per Donald Trump Jr., that Russia makes up a significant amount of the family business. What we don’t know is how much Russian money is involved, and what Russian money. How did Trump get out of debt? To whom does he owe money? "
There is so much more but somebody has to explain the outrage in 2008 on this very forum about Wright and the writings of Alinsky versus the complete satisfaction of accepting a proven liar at his word with all the evidence that is available ?
Did the moral standard change in some way ?
Are liars then not liars now ?
I do not get it. Suddenly the very same people who longed for moral leadership now suddenly worship at the feet of a man who is proven liar and all those other words you can attach and on this very forum and now we praise on another thread the words of Assange, who is a purported sexual criminal and lives in exile.
We praise Assange, a man who Paul Ryan calls ""sycophant for Russia,"
Paul Ryan: Assange a 'sycophant for Russia' - Business Insider (http://www.businessinsider.com/paul-ryan-julian-assange-trump-russia-2017-1)
In what name do we honor these people, including an incoming President of the United States who assailed and mocked the intelligence commynity, openly in public for the world to see. AND then sided with Assange and Putin. publicly and openly for the world to see?
This is "making america great again" ?
Is the intelligence community considered the swamp ? Are those hard working people who work 24/7 considered punks and liars by a man who has done LITERALLY NOTHING ever for his country ?
it seems to me that you who profess you want America great again have no idea of what that means.

I hope you will not say that Trump's lewd, lie filled, character anemic life does not matter because he might bring some jobs....please......are morals that unimportant to you ?
Is making america great again.....accepting immoral lying and whatever to get what we want no matter the cost. Oh, that sounds nice and then go ahead tell me how abusing verbally our own United States government around the world and then swearing on a bible to uphold what the country stands for, because Obama bad...Clinton bad. NO WAY...that is lame and lazy....you are either moral or immoral and you either demand from our leaders character and morals or you don'.t

But, important to me,...this posters from the past who either expressed to me their agreement on the questions surrounding Barrack Obama and his associations are worse then Trump himself.
He has always been a bad bad person...you guys like to present how good you are, how you respect character and morals.
Bunk..hypocrite is all I can think of.
You continue to accept Assange, Putin and Trump amazingly WITHOUT QUESTION, and join in assaulting your own country and then say Make America Great Again...bunk,
And do not defend Trump in anyway...by his own admission he has not been briefed yet he has you people agreeing with him bad mouthing groups who have not even spoke with him.

I said this on the Assange thread. I would not defend Trump, Assange, Hannity, Putin, Obama, etc
My issue with the 17 national intelligence agencies is that they missed 9/11, WMD, Arab Spring, Benghazi, ISIS, Hillary's personal server and deal making with foreign nationals and failed to bring an indictment against her despite an explanation that in fact said they did have sufficient cause.
So as respects whether Putin did or did not hack the DNC I am not going to listen until they show they have returned to competency

Do you recall the Aug 6, 2001 PDB titled Bin Laden determined to attack the US? They didn't miss it, it was just ignored by W Bush.
They never said there were WMD in Iraq. That was the spin put on it by Cheney and his merry band of neo-cons. Many, many books have been written.
The intelligence community does not bring indictments. They provide information.
Where do you suggest that Trump get his intel from when the nuclear warhead is heading for Seattle? Assuange?
BTW: Are you familiar with the mafia guy Trump spent New Year's Eve with being that you are pure Italian?

A case of mistaken identity on my part, please continue on with your gripe.
FYI:
I would accept Assange, Putin, and Trump's word over Obamma or Clinton any day...until they are proven wrong. I don't consider the hacking of a private entity (DNC) as an act of war (in fact I am glad we found out the truth on many matters that were disclosed), but Obamma seems to be portraying it as that (so does "Tin foil hat Jan").

Frankly, you should do two things...
First, forget Obama as your first response to everything.
Secondly, read a bit, this has nothing to do with Obama, unless you feel that all of our intelligence agencies are in cahoots with Obama, in which case the problem for the country is massive.
If you believe it is ok for the President Elect of the United States to verbally abuse the United States intelligence services and do it publicly world wide. Then compound it be actually quoting Assange as a defense, a man who he suggested a death penalty for in 2010. And to suggest all of this so the world can chuckle at it. If you are ok with this, then I must disagree with you in the strongest terms.

What, God doesn't like poor countries? :a20:
Au contraire. God does love us all. If you look closer those nations in disaster either left God or the nation's leadership prevents the word of God/worship.
France became very secular. a recent article made mention that a favorite running for office now is a very devout Catholic and suddenly the French are returning to God. I guess the mass killings by terrorist had something to do with their awakening.
My reference to the USA is that we are still free to worship and express our love for God. By doing so we reinforce the principle that our freedoms flow from God. If you review th past 8 years Obama and the progressive party tried at every level to infringe on that freedom. and if you recall the Democratic Party at their 2012 Convention tried to strike the word God from their platform, etc
simply stated without God people are ruled by man and we know what happens then. If you are going to counter with but people do bad things in God's name the operative word is "bad" people, and these bad people are using God's name for evil deeds. God is love

Dear Guest:
When it comes to government follow the suggest of a great president Ronald Reagan, Trust but verify. Governments are immoral and as such they do not care about right or wrong.
It has been reported that the head of the CIA John Brennan voted for communism in his college days. Is it factual? Has he changed his ideology if it is factual? either way it causes me to rule with my head and not my emotions and to search what is really being said between the lines. and as I said in another post our intelligence agencies failed a number of times. Should a president -elect say to the intelligence community that' it is OK guys that you missed WMD, 9/11, Arab spring, Benghazi, ISIS, Hillary's personal server

Dear Guest:
When it comes to government follow the suggest of a great president Ronald Reagan, Trust but verify. Governments are immoral and as such they do not care about right or wrong.

1. I am a bit strapped for time, but I am SURE those situations you mention were made up by you and I wllmat some point, come back and prove it clearly. That list was straight from the Hannity show and conspiracy theorist.
That does not mean, I blindly am confident that our intelligence community is always 100% correct..it is not.
2. I assume then that Rubicon is just fine with the public statements that he chi throughout the world, made by our President Elect, and you must feel that all his differences are just fine aired in public.
That is not anything but acting in a mean spirited manner, and CERTAINLY will never make America great again.

A simple diatribe of nothing. Sorry, but this is a political forum, not a prayer meeting. So, you equate a commentary piece with current events? I really do feel sorry for you.
So a repub is against prayer

Can anyone, including the posters from the past explain this to me......give me some answers ?
Did my morals change ? Did your morals change ?
I hope you will not say that Trump's lewd, lie filled, character anemic life does not matter because he might bring some jobs....please......are morals that unimportant to you ?
Is making america great again.....accepting immoral lying and whatever to get what we want no matter the cost. Oh, that sounds nice and then go ahead tell me how abusing verbally our own United States government around the world and then swearing on a bible to uphold what the country stands for, because Obama bad...Clinton bad. NO WAY...that is lame and lazy....you are either moral or immoral and you either demand from our leaders character and morals or you don'.t
I guess the repubs changed from "family values" to "our new leader althought he is a pervert is okay with us."

Running behind today, but watching the hearings on CSPAN, and at the same time doing some reading.
Read Trump's tweets from this morning
.
WHERE HE BLAMES THE MEDIA FOR HIS OWN WORDS
relative to our intelligence agencies.
He never ceases to amaze me with his ability to manifest his "all about me only attitude".
I have found this past week or two to be very telling about this person.
Instead of rising up as I hoped, he continues to be anti American and continually acts like a sub teen if he, or anything about him, is questioned at all.
For those of you who blindly, and obviously without reading or knowledge of facts, believe what this man says are being led like sheep.
I am saddened frankly by the total and complete hypocrisy of posters on here. While I and others who still post very aggressively were loud and clear in condemning then Sen Obama for his associations, etc......then condemned him for bowing to a foreign leader when visiting that foreign country.....we know accept Trump's association with Russia, Turkey, Iran, etc IN SECRET (no tax makes it secret relative to national security), gangsters and criminals who he claimed he did , accept the denigration of United States intelligence by our new President.
I am the dumb one obviously because those of you who not only excuse his words and actions, but actually, with words, simply refuse to address it at all.
Instead of trying to make excuses for Trump, why not address being stronger in our response ?
Trump wants us to LESSEN our response and has "hinted" he even wants to reduce or eliminate the sanctions placed on behalf of our friends around the world.

Obama set the bar on the ground. Anyone wishing to go lower will have to dig a larger hole than we are in now.

And WHERE did you get YOUR "facts"? From someone else...
YOU are being led to the slaughter too little lamb.

The bar was already underground, O just buried it twice as deep as it was before.
