I am a Republican.  I opposed the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.  I opposed Hillary Clinton's "Arab Spring" which caused the governments in Libya, Yemen and Egypt to fall.  Her actions were directly responsible for the inflamed situation in the middle East at this moment.  However, Egypt kicked the Muslim Brotherhood out and took control of their country, whereupon the US immediately stopped aid to Egypt. 

Evolution is a scientific fact. 

I never heard anyone claim that contraception causes abortion so can't comment on that other than to say it's ridiculous.

I do question the birth certificate which President Obama purports to be genuine.

We can balance the Federal Budget by cutting spending and increasing certain taxes.

No WMDs were found in Iraq because Saddam Hussein had moved them to Syria where Assad has used them, poison gas in particular, against his own people. 

And, indeed, global warming is the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people and Al Gore has made millions out of this scam. 

In the United States, our system of government provides that the person who wins the most electoral votes will become President.  Anarchists in the streets will not change that.  Insulting people who voted for President-elect Trump will not change that.  Assaulting people who voted for President-elect Trump will not change that.   I don't recall rioting in the streets when Mr. Obama won the most electoral votes either time. Perhaps I missed it.  This is our system.  It has worked for more than two  centuries.  Deal with it.

Pennsylvania State Department says Stein missed recount deadline
By Philip Wegmann • 11/28/16 3:29 PM

Jill Stein has everything she needs to launch a presidential recount. She's got the cash, the grassroots fervor and the spotlight of an adoring media. But there's one thing she needs to overturn Trump's victory: a calendar.

I'm a Democrat. Here's how Hillary and the recount campaign leaves me feeling

By Bryan Dean Wright  Published November 28, 2016  FoxNews.com

(Snipped)

As a Democrat, I am frustrated and ashamed. Unlike Clinton, I realize that America’s history was built not just on its gallant winners but also on its noble losers

Actually, I do have a comment. Regardless of the political views I do wish the retoric would calm down.  In our fair city of 75,000 we have had too much bullying in our schools. I know it is the same around the country.  It is sad to see how parents have visited their biases on their children.  ::MonkeyNoNo::

DJT proclaims he become the law and order president.  I hope sanity will trickle down to adults.  When I was a kid, parents did not have 24 hr cable news.
Cable news is what incites the mayhem, in my opinion, which infuriates adults and scares kiddies.  I say unplug the tube.  :shock:

The United States has now officially become a Plutocracy.  We will soon be a 3rd world country run by Plutocrats and controlled by Putin.  It's terrifying and sad.
