    Monitor-Merrimac Bridge

    This is just a shot taken as I drove across the bridge. On the horizon across the bay you can see 3 aircraft carriers at the Naval Air Station Norfolk.

    Yeah, he doesn't serve this president, though. Trump didn't retain his services.

    The Trump Card...

    This is kind of a funny... You may have seen the story (at a gazillion media outlets) where Obama's White House photographer, Pete Souza, likes to troll Trump with "contrasting" pics, and the Palin/Kid Rock/Nugent photo is no exception. The caption, "Being respectful," is a little hypocritical...

    The Trump Card...

    Some of it's Executive Orders, some of it's legislation (resolutions, technically) that have stopped or rolled back last minute Obama regulations, but from this piece from The Hill, the actions Trump has taken already will save taxpayers somewhere in the neighborhood of $86 billion. (that's some...

    Liberals are just spittin' bubbles over this one. Liberals want to sue somebody over this one.

    John Stallman finally sees what the rest of us have known for a long time. "I'm an idiot" - Jason Stallman, NY Times.

    The Trump Card...

    I'm not a McConnell fan either, not even a little bit, and he's one of my Senators from Kentucky, but I agree, he looked almost presidential along side of the child-like actions of the sniveling, whining Schumer. On a fun note, Dreamer is protected by DACA, leaves the US and goes to Mexico...

    Vote: Should ICE stay out of N.J. courthouses? Interesting results. Not surprising, though.

    The Trump Card...

    Every single Republican House member who has been in Congress for more than 4 years need to be taken out to the wood shed and paddled to the point where they can't sit down for weeks. 7 years, and the best they can come up with is a rabbit raisinette.

    Without chemicals, life itself would be impossible. (that's an old slogan of The Ultimate Merchant of Death, Monsanto)

    The Trump Card...

    That's the right answer. It's not a numbers game. Every president and congress is different. Every time is different, with very different issues facing the nation at any given First 100 Days. The Press likes the numbers (including the 100 Days number) because it lets them toss out easily...

    The Trump Card...

    Yeah... "Less then other Presidents before" I like that. It's absolutely true. There were, in fact, other presidents that signed more legislation into law. Two of them - Truman and Roosevelt. First 100 days, bills signed into action: Trump - only 28 Obama - 11 Bush Jr - 7 Clinton - 24 Bush...

    According to the Fake News Media (you know, CNN, NYT, etc.,) hardly any of the New England Patriots showed up at the White House this year. Yeah, well.....

    The Trump Card...

    Exactly. A lot of the time the source isn't necessarily a measure of factual bias, but rather a bias in which stories they choose to carry, and the angle they take on the story. When you listen to Fox News and CNN for 5 or 6 hours, flipping back and forth between them, the choice of stories to...

    Now you get to broaden your horizons. :D When I'm driving down the toad I'll flip back and forth on SXM between CNN, Fox News, Fox Headline News, and I try to catch Julie Mason's Press Pool on POTUS, either live between 3-6 PM, or when it's re-aired between midnight at 3AM. I avoid at all...

    The Trump Card...

    Excellent, the classic ad hominem logical fallacy. Look, I'll quote from The Village Voice, The Daily Beast, Huffington Post, or even BuzzFeed, if it's accurate. Any source needs to be skeptically taken into account when dealing with a brokering of the news, nothing should be accepted at face...

    I do like The Five when Watters and Beckel are on there. I like Gutfeld in bits and pieces, but he's hard to take in a constant diet. Too much of a partisan homer for my tastes. Kimberly Guilfoyle is very smart, and very easy on the eyes, but if you pinch her nose she'd go silent. (she's a...

    Looks like they're moving Tucker up an hour (not a surprise there), and they're Dolly Parton-ish-ing The Five to nine. Watters and Beckel would be hilarious together. :grinning:
