I really don't enjoy SOTU addresses, but last nigh the Democratic sourpusses were the highlight. One question: were Joe Manchin's sideways looks to see whether he could stand up and applaud, merely childish or purely craven? Bill Gullette | |||

Speaking of Manchin, how is his reelection looking? I hope that gun grabber gets defeated. | |||

My sources confirm that they were there mainly for the post-SOTU KFC chicken tenders buffet. It's like a time-share presentation thing. *************************** Knowing more by accident than on purpose. | |||

I watched the SOTU address last night, and actually stood up and clapped at the conclusion of Pres. Trump's speech. It was powerful, heart wrenching, pointed in the correct direction, and personal to DJT, and the American people. The right speech at the right time in this Nation. The Demos looked like spoiled children. | |||

Earlier we heard that the FBI had looked at the FISA memo and “could not point to any factual inaccuracies” Now today the FBI has “grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy.” We went from “no inaccuracies” to “material omissions”. President Trump should get FBI Dir Wray, Nunes, and Gowdy in his office and hash this out. | |||

Just let the FBI and whomever voice their concerns and President Trump is going to try to address their concerns by having the memo examined in great detail, but the end result will be the same. Think about it- what difference does it make if the memo is released today, or two weeks from now? It's going to be released. Patience is in order right now. It's going to be great when it's finally released. | |||

Call me crazy, but I don't expect him to throw the below-top echelon Bureau under the bus. No need for that, it's already tainted enough. And apparently more when the memo comes out. Guess we can call it trickle-down "corporate" politics. *************************** Knowing more by accident than on purpose. | |||

Last night Hannity had Donald trump Jr. on to discuss the SOTU. He had a lot of good and insightful comments, but he did discuss specifically some interactions he had with several FBI agents while at the SHOT Show. I'm not sure of the specific time spot, but here's the whole interview. http://insider.foxnews.com/201...s-reaction-democrats | |||

It's disgusting that the FBI cares more about it's reputation than about the truth. Sad part is their reputation is already shot, the memo won't change that. | |||

I am rejoicing in this time. Despite the political elite putting a target on Trump's back, attacking all of us, and illegally obstructing and misleading the country, we are stronger now than ever. Even the liberals I deal with can't deny that things have improved drastically in one little year. Obummer has been exposed to even the most ignorant people. Trump is the leader we have wanted and needed desperately. Let the Demoturds and FBI dick around with the memo. That is all the more opportunity for it to hit harder. Embrace all of the winning. I thank God daily for putting his hand on America and Trump.

The importance of the FISA issue is that we need to be sure that the laws and procedures are appropriate to prevent the use of the enormous power we authorize for good and proper purposes cannot be misused for improper purposes, like appropriation by one group to seize power in derogation of our democratic repiblican principles. It appears that while we placed great comfidence in the skill, patriotism and integrity of the FBI, some found cracks in the organization, those who betrayed the trust, to subvert the safeguards and process. We need to know and restore reliability and confidence to the process, or end it. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Trump praised American Exceptionalism and what's possible if we try. He then held out his hand and asked- Let's Try? The FBI / Justice Department / Memo- The charges cut to the very heart and soul of America and the Republic doesn't exist as we know it if they tried to do what they tried to do. This came to mind "I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic". ____________________________________________________ The butcher with the sharpest knife has the warmest heart. | |||

Why even entertain the idea of democratic royalty? Seriously, family legacies in politics is a poison that needs to end. What demonstrates elitism more than a family maintinaing such high political influence simply because of their blood? Beyond frustrating.
