Did go out just to see what was happening, concrete and blacktop was icy in spots, by evening didn't find any ice. Guess I did get outside for about 5 minutes. Seems we dodged this one, that is good. <br /><br />So far I have held back on the liberal facebook friends, I just can't believe there are two still crying like a baby with wet diapers. Wish the two were closer, I would go have a personal talk with them. However FB is not a good place for that, being that we are not face to face, it seems to embolden the screaming libs.

The sight of such bare tribalism always gets me down, and it makes me wonder how we can so easily abandon our normal intellectual and ethical standards when it comes to people who are asking for a level of power and responsibility that most of us can’t even imagine."<br /><br />Yeah...well, Matty...how many times have we seen YOUR'S and your cohorts' "stubborn political loyalty (along with visceral disdain for the other party) that has the power to turn millions of reasonable people into euphemism-spitting, fact-denying lackeys who will say or permit almost anything as long as it makes their candidate sound a little better"?<br /><br />Pretty much ALL LAST YEAR...right?<br /><br />"Although I don’t accept the increasingly pervasive “liberals are to blame for Trump” theory, I’ll admit that the sight of sententious college students and pundits treating Trump like a guy who takes off his Nazi uniform at the end of the day only to don his white robe and pointy hat for an evening of cross burning and hate rallying was probably a powerful motivator in the voting booths."<br /><br />Ummm...you just admitted it, Matty. But, you don't "accept" it? That's just silly!<br /><br />"Whenever Trump said something scandalous or nonsensical (or both), his supporters would invariably contend that Clinton was just as culpable for something similar. But this assertion ignores the totality of their positions, attitudes, actions, etc. in favor of superficial labels like “liar” or “reckless.” Consider the accusation of dishonesty. A few months ago, I wrote a column that acknowledged Clinton’s record of concealing the truth, but I also explained that her mendacity wasn’t nearly as ambitious or unabashed as her opponent’s. I’ll quote Trump: The man lies “big league.” <br /><br />What are you trying to say, Matty? Pretty much anytime anyone presented an ACTUAL PROVABLE lie of Hillary's, you, your leftist cohorts, and the liberal trolls at CJ DID THE EXACT SAME THING! JUST like YOU are doing...NOW! You are downplaying Hillary's OBVIOUS lies when you "explained that her mendacity wasn’t nearly as ambitious or unabashed as her opponent’s". <br /><br />Why do you insist on displaying your own glaring leftist hypocrisy so blindingly bright, every week, Matty?Nunyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07836516027718099719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555963699911004826.post-72852179382383557332017-01-15T07:09:23.785-06:002017-01-15T07:09:23.785-06:00I have no plans to leave the house today.

I'd do it for free!<br /><br />When I was working, I would report "many many potholes" between the alley and the corner. A crew would show up and take care of half or so. I would then call and talk to a real live person who would tell me they take care of the potholes that are reported. I called bull and asked how they determine which ones are not included in "many many"? Of course all they could do is stutter and back peddle. The city sent someone out to look at the street and talk to me, and a couple days later a crew was there to fill in the rest. The person sent to look said that section needs resurfaced, but nearly two years later it's never been done. Yep, our tax dollars at work or so the signs say.

I think she sees Shrillary as a role model...on how to be an abject failure at EVERYTHING!<br /><br />Of course, little Jonny Shorman puts HIS own leftist political 666-mark into his writing:<br /><br />"The former Democratic governor honored the legacy of President Barack Obama while steeling for Donald Trump’s presidency in an address to Living the Dream’s executive leadership luncheon in Topeka."<br /><br />"Honored" Obama ("YEAAAA!!!!") while "steeling" for Trump's presidency ("BOOOO!!!") Hey, Jonny...they teach you anything about "journalistic integrity" or "objectivity" in your little leftist journalism classes? No...you went to KU (Kremlin University), where they probably offer "Journalism As Propaganda 101"...right?<br /><br />"The world is full of difficult challenges, Sebelius said, and America faces a lot of controversy coming off of the election."<br /><br />Yeah, well, Katy...YOU people ran a traitorous, lying, totally-unlikeable criminal wench, so...in effect...YOU people pretty much got Trump elected, and CAUSED all this controversy!<br /><br />"Sebelius served as Health and Human Services secretary in Obama’s cabinet."<br /><br />Another EPIC FAIL in her "legacy".<br /><br />"Sebelius, while saying that she primarily lives in Kansas now, quipped that it was a good time to get out of Washington, D.C."<br /><br />Yeah, well...it IS tough to stick around somewhere, when you've completely humiliated yourself, huh?<br /><br />"Dale Cushinberry, the event’s emcee, urged the audience to move toward each other and not away."<br /><br />I respect Cushinberry. I think he's an honorable guy, and believe he can rise above the morons who surround him.<br /><br />“At the end of the day, we have a lot in common,” Cushinberry said. “I believe 87 percent of the people in this world want the same thing. They want to have a job, they want to take care of their family, and they want to enjoy life." <br /><br />Not sure where that "87%" came from...but, sure...I can't argue with what he said.<br /><br />"We let the small percentage of people divide us on issues of race, religion, economics.” <br /><br />He did, however, fail to identify that "small group". They are called "liberals".<br /><br />Now, then...just to put a period on THAT, this entire article was about "diviseveness" and "not working together". And Sheriff Jones ends it up...how?<br /><br />By continuing to highligt the divisions, and urging ONE particular group to "be the first to make the change". <br /><br />"Sheriff Herman Jones ran through a number of people of color who had been the first make achievements in their field, including Obama."<br /><br />“They’re the first to change. Where are you? Are you making change? Have you taken steps to be the first?” Jones challenged the audience. “Many of us in here have talents beyond recognition but have we fulfilled our talents in our communities? We have a lot of great leaders in this room but have we done that to leave a legacy of ourselves?”<br /><br />WHY do these messages, as well-intentioned as they may seem, ALWAYS have to focus on the "differences"? Couldn't that very same message be applied to ANYONE? <br /><br />No, unfortunately, not. Not when you are a liberal writer, a liberal activist, a "community organizer", a Democrat, etc., who MUST keep the hatred and divisiveness alive to keep yourself relevant in some small(minded) way.<br /><br /><br /><br /> Nunyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07836516027718099719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555963699911004826.post-84287711482239094452017-01-14T01:55:36.344-06:002017-01-14T01:55:36.344-06:00Well good morning no ice here yet the best I can t...Well good morning no ice here yet the best I can tell.Sargejrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12383361283532558741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555963699911004826.post-69472061509362686522017-01-13T22:10:49.384-06:002017-01-13T22:10:49.384-06:00We have ice.

After fireworks stopped for good it moved on. We think it would roam at night to feed and felt safe in the yard. It would wander out some during the day and watch the neighbors. When out the neighbors went about there business and kept their distance. When they mowed, it climbed on the woodpile and watched. I think this fox was familiar with people and could tell it was safe in the yard. That one was much redder than what we saw today and beautiful as well.
