More liberal logic: California State Atty. Gen. has banned travel by government employees to several states such as Texas, that have policies regarding LGBT issues with which the California State Atty. Gen. does not agree. However they oppose Pres. Trump's travel ban from countries where members of the LGBT community are put to death because of their lifestyles.
Talk about a swamp. The investigation into Michael Flynn has not turned up any credible evidence about collusion with the Russians. What it has turned up is the fact that the acting director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe, had sexual discrimination and harassment charges filed against him by a female special agent in 2014. Michael Flynn gave a statement supporting the agent's claims. Guess who started the investigation into Michael Flynn? That's right, Andrew McCabe. Doesn't that seem like a conflict of interest at best and a political witch hunt at worst?
The Congressional Budget Office has scored the Senate Republicans replacement for Obama care. First of all let's be very clear that the Congressional Budget Office has never even come close when scoring bills like this. For example they thought 4 million small business owners would enroll in Obamacare's small business program. To date, 230,000 businesses have enrolled. Their estimates of the amount of subsidies needed for the Obamacare exchanges have been off by over 100% every year. That being the case, they anticipate that 22 million people will leave the exchanges between now and 2026 if the Senate's plan is implemented. Of course you've heard that in the media and from the left wing in Washington. Approximately 15 million of those people will leave voluntarily, that's the part that are not telling you. The bill gets rid of the individual mandate and many of those leaving the exchanges will likely purchase insurance in the private market again because several analyses of the bill find that premiums in the private market will decrease. In fact a couple of insurance companies have said they believe the premium reduction will be 30 to 40% and they will be able to offer plans with low deductibles and lower premiums. That doesn't sound quite as bad, does it?. Not to mention that with the elimination of the 30 hour work week requirement under Obamacare, many more people will return to full-time work and should be able to afford their own insurance again.
Think about this; the telephone was invented in 1876 but it wasn't until 1982 that you could actually take the phone out of the house. For 106 years you were relegated to a 4-foot circle around your refrigerator while talking on the phone and now you're ticked off because you can't get coverage in the middle of the Gila Wilderness.
It is amazing what people will say to try and rationalize the outcome of the election. On Rachel Maddow's show shortly after the Democrats lost the election in Georgia's sixth Congressional District one of their analysts was saying that the rain, which was very heavy, negatively affected the Democrat turnout. So what he's saying is the Democrats didn't feel strongly enough about either voting for the Democrat candidate or against Pres. Trump or that they were afraid they would melt in the rain. Which isn't a stretch given the fact that the liberals continually tell people that they can't handle adversity themselves. The same analyst went on to say that more rain fell on the heavily Democrat populated portions of the district as compared to the Republican portions of the district. So you're telling me that God or Mother Nature doesn't like the Democrats?
The Democrats are also claiming in all four losses in official elections that the narrow margins of victory actually show that people are getting tired of Pres. Trump already. That doesn't appear to be the case but let's not forget a couple of key facts: first of all President Trump's margin of victory in Georgia for example was just over 1%, the Republican candidate's victory was about 6% so that seems to be a move in the direction of the Republicans and Trump, doesn't it? Also, in Georgia's congressional district, that district has been redrawn a couple of times since people like Mike Price and Newt Gingrich won by large margins so you are not comparing apples to apples.
