Did you work any fm stations? When they happened people bought stereos just for fm. I had a Kenwood receiver with only fm.

Barr's Bull

Posted By Mel Maki

This will be a real test of, "It's the economy, stupid." There must be some but it is difficult to find Dems that will give Trump credit for the economy. He is just taking advantage of the economy that Obama built, don't you know. Reasonable people know that is not reasonable but I am getting tired of hearing it!
It always comes down to, "Compared to what." So we will see what the Dems come up with. Hard to believe Biden has enough left.

Barr's Bull

I watched CNN's coverage mostly and even the large panel was full of "never Trump" enthusiasm.  MSNBC coverage was better despite them breaking in occasionally to point out what "liars" the Republicans were.

Barr's Bull

Posted By Mel Maki

NYT's Peter Baker updated his 2017 book saying Obama was overcome with anger following Clinton's defeat. Saw it as a personal insult. "I've got the economy set up well for him. They can just have a cartoon."
It isn't a lie if you believe it.
Can anybody even imagine how much better the economy would be right now if Obama didn't have to leave? Everybody would probably be getting rebates from the IRS. Right now!

Amazing that Dems made up a letter "controversy" to the point that some Dems want Barr impeached.

Mueller Tentatively To Testify On May 15

Why shouldn't he? IF Barr and all the "experts" on Fox news are so correct in their opinions, then Donald doesn't have to block his testimony, now does he?
The Dem's best bet, Joe "Folks" Biden, is crumbling. Every week it is more apparent he has trouble putting words together and finishing his sentences. Aren't you noticing he is getting worse? He will not stay in the race. There is no chance he will get the nomination. And the best the Dems can do is phony up some bs about "the letter." 60 Dems wanted impeachment before they saw the report. 
Have you seen the occasional 3 or 4 minute news items showing 5 seconds of nearly every news personality on CNN and MSNBC repeating the phrase of the day? Why do 20 people choose a certain day to repeat a 3 or 4 word phrase about a Republican? A phrase that the subject did not use. Strange, almost like the order comes from above.

Trump's Tweets Support For Radicals Banned By Facebook

Will stocks be a better investment when Bernie beats Trump? Which stocks will do better? Oil? Nuclear?  Solar? Guns and ammo stocks might flash up for a couple of days.

Biding Time With Biden?

Posted By Mel Maki

What if this guy gets a lead in the polls? Now he said that Thatcher is concerned about the US under Trump. Every week Dems will wonder, "What will he say this week?" Four years from now he might say Churchill is worried.

Does Biden Have Another Month?

Posted By Mel Maki

Biden says we have an obligation to give illegals health care. This from the man that doesn't think China is our competitor.  A fair person would never mention his remarks about Obama being a clean Black man or all small store owners being from India. 
And the people giving him contributions really believe he can win? We have crazy politics.

Does Biden Have Another Month?

Posted By Mel Maki

Biden does say we will need more clinics to better take care of them.
They are continuing to come because neither party has changed the asylum laws. The voters that know are outnumbered by the party faithful which automatically jump up to defend the party against that mean, terrible man Trump. They repeat what the party leaders say, "Crisis, what crisis?
