The people who make this country work are tired of being nice. Being nice has returned nothing but being taken advantage of for far too long. Responsible people are tired of being responsible for others who can be responsible for themselves. Responsible people are tired of others who are not being held responsible. All I can add is........Amen. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

pitchforks We all know the media loves that stuff, and Trump is benefitting from it. People love drama(well, a lot do, I don't), and Trump is tapping into it. The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

I See Haters Protesting Against 'Hate'. How profound, possibly you should found a new religion or political party based upon your observations. |

So why doesn't so many americans even care to vote? "We the people" are literally now in the US giving power to the "ruling class." God bless America:) |

Responsible people are tired of being responsible for others who can be responsible for themselves. Responsible people are tired of others who are not being held responsible.Republican Richard Nixon never paid for Vietnam and VA bills of today for that (agent orange) Health care is now worse than ever.Republican obstructionism to single payer results in compromise we are saddled with today where for profit republican lobbyist purchasing companies are in control Rise of radical islamic terrorism.Right wing Christian wing nuts in the republican party insulting other religions and burning their holy books telling them America is waging "crusade" on them Stagnant wages.Republican refusal to raise minimum wage Seemingly endless violations of the constitution.Richard Nixon showed every president how. Federal income tax more unfair than ever.Norquist Unresponsive legislative branch.Republican do nothings who refuse to do their job and run the country. Compromise is a requirement of legislative bodies. Out-of-control judicial branch.Republican insistence on abortion litmus testing permanently politicizing the judicial branch. And an executive branch that brazenly and openly displays contempt for all who disagree with him.Republican Richard Nixon leads the way again. It's time for "we the people" to take our country back from the "ruling class."Yes, get rid of the Pentagon and turn off the Military Industrial Complex, just like Ike said! |

Highlights from Taibbi's latest :) Why Trump's Endorsements Should Scare Your Pants Off On the Muslim ban ...These episodes are like a child's game of "telephone," only played with bone-ignorant adults. The game starts when Trump personifies "Islam" under one label, apparently not realizing that this represents an awesomely diverse collection of people who collectively represent about a quarter of the world's population. Remember, Trump says he only wants to close the borders to all Muslims "until we can figure out what's going on." This means he actually believes it will take less time, logistically, to wall off the United States to 1.6 billion people inhabiting every time zone on Earth than it would be to craft a strategy for dealing with a relatively tiny band of religious dingbats roaming Mesopotamia in search of an apocalyptic showdown with the army of Rome. In reality, "until we can figure out what's going on" means "never," because if Trump had any inclination to "figure it out," he'd do it before he created the mother of all logistical and diplomatic nightmares, not after. Trump's ignorance is monstrous, but it's nothing compared to that of his supporters, who apparently take "we don't know who is who" to mean that ISIS could be just about anyone not wearing a NASCAR uniform. This is like the Red Scare all over again, only dumber and more racist. We're like a week away from seeing Trumpshirts in Texas or Alabama gang-tackle a college student for eating tabouleh. On mainstream endorsements Amidst all of this, the Trump endorsements have been coming fast and furious, with pyramid-lover and knife-combat enthusiast Ben Carson being the latest. Until recently, most of the celebrity Trump-supporters have been exactly the sort of swollen-headed, oxygen-deprived has-beens one would expect to find backing a reality TV spectacle like Trump's campaign. But the more troubling pattern came when the so-called "establishment" endorsements started to flow in. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, who appeared to be blinking a cry for help in Morse code during Trump's Super Tuesday victory speech, was the first and most craven of the Trump-converts from the GOP mainstream. Then there was Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions, a major Iraq War supporter... NASCAR CEO Brian France, who is not the most loathsome sports official alive only because God keeps forgetting to hit Roger Goodell with lightning, was another relatively important "mainstream" endorsement. As for Carson, it took about two seconds after he endorsed Trump for this formerly proud-seeming man to start humiliating himself. He explained the seeming incongruity of jumping in with a race-baiting blowhard by saying that he was supporting a Donald Trump not visible to the rest of the world. "There are two Donald Trumps. There's the Donald Trump that you see on television and who gets out in front of big audiences, and there's the Donald Trump behind the scenes," he said. "They're two different people. One's very much an entertainer, the other is a thinking individual." Carson added, devastatingly to himself and what is left of his reputation, that this other, unseen Trump was "cerebral." All along, Beltway pundits have insisted that Trump could never win because there just aren't enough people in America who are that stupid. What those people missed is that there are always plenty of otherwise sane people who tend to fold and hop in line at the first show of strength. |

So you use a quote from a fictional character. Doesn't say a lot about who makes the US work. And written by a woman who wrote mainly to young students, telling them to be individualists and that the liberals, who know nothing, would take all their money through taxes. That believed in selfishness and wanted the church to lose it's power. She was an atheist after all. Most students after they have worked for a few years realise that they need to work for the team and that they are not taxed much after all. Selfishness, along with greed, is what drives most of the 1%ers. Aren't a lot of the Republicans church goers, or more specifically evangelicals, who hate atheists. And after all the hype 4 years ago, her views have now been rejected by Paul Ryan. So tell me, who does make the US work? |

So tell me, who does make the US work? So it's the richest 40% of the population then, not the humble worker. edit] I do not rely on the BBC for my understanding of the US. And I haven't even seen that article, much less read it. |

I have some questions to Donald Trump. To become a US citizen one should answer questions about American society, governance and the country's history. Ten questions asked during an interview, and six of them must be right. The questions are drawn from a larger battery of questions of the migration authority. How many years is a elected president serving? If the president can not perform his duties, who succeeds in as president? Who has the veto? What are the two dominant parties in the United States? How old should you be to vote in the presidential election? When was adopted the Declaration of Independence? Who was the first President? Which ocean is west of the United States? What's the US capital? Why has the national flag 50 stars? When is the National Day? The idea of ​​autonomy are given to the first three words of the Constitution, what are the words? Which economic system is the United States? In how many years are elected senators to serve? How many judges are sitting in the Supreme Court? Who wrote the Declaration of Independence? Who was president during the Great Depression and World War II? During the Cold War, which was America's main concern? How many fundamental laws, the Constitution? Who was President during World War I? What state bordering Canada? Which area bought the United States from France in 1803? Where is the Statue of Liberty? What happened on 11 September 2001 in the United States? Who is the commander in chief? Name a right that is reserved for US citizens? What does "the rule of law" means? Who represents a senator? Name one state that borders Mexico? I wonder how Donald think of Europe. https://twitter.com/carlbildt/status/707995428768321536?lang=sv |

On Friday evening, Trump in a campaign speech in Chicago was cancelled because of the risk of riots by demonstrators. http://edition.cnn.com/2016/03/11/politics/donald-trump-chicago-protests/ One has called Trump The Little Führer. I think she/he is right. It's really too much. |
