James Comey...
“The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office.” Dwight D. Eisenhower“
I wonder who he is taking a swing at?

“Is it still alleged when there is a picture?”
Greg Sargent’s response...
“Is it still alleged when there is a recording of the groper openly boasting about his groping?”
Good question.

I don't think Al Franken should resign. If you expect every man who has ever said or done something sexually inappropriate to resign, we'd probably lose 3/4 of Congress in one fell swoop. Oh wait, maybe that's not such a bad idea ...

CNN...
“America's brand has taken a major hit in the age of Trump.
At least that's according to a survey that ranks the world's best nation brands.
The United States lands with an overall No. 6 ranking in the Anholt-GfK Nation Brands Index, which measures 50 nations in multiple categories, including governance, exports, culture, people, tourism and immigration/investment. The United States was the overall No. 1 in 2016, but Germany took the top spot this year.
The source of America's big drop? President Donald Trump, says Simon Anholt, a political consultant who developed the brand survey more than a decade ago.
"We are witnessing a 'Trump effect,' following President Trump's focused political message of 'America First,' " Anholt said in a statement.
Anholt noted that despite the big drop in the overall ranking, Americans interviewed for the survey actually had a more positive assessment of their country than they did last year.
And this year isn't the first time that the United States has experienced such a big drop in the survey. Anholt said the nation saw a "similar fall in global perception" after the re-election of President George W. Bush in 2004. The US fell to No. 7 then.
The West dominates the Top 10
Germany ranked first this year thanks to big gains in the governance, people and culture categories.
The UK, which took a hit last year after the Brexit vote, regained enough ground to hang on to No. 3 in the survey, and Anholt said that showing indicates the United States should be able to bounce back, too.
"Previously, America has never stayed outside the top ranking for more than a year at a time," he said. "It will be interesting to see whether this holds true in the 2018 ranking."
France came in at No. 2, while Canada and Japan tied for fourth place. The rest of the Top 10 is Italy at No. 7, Switzerland at No. 8, Australia at No. 9 and Sweden at No. 10.
No non-Western countries managed to crack the Top 10.“
What is it about modern Republican Presidents that drive this country into the crapper?

trump... “The Al Frankenstien picture is really bad, speaks a thousand words. Where do his hands go in pictures 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 while she sleeps? .....” When I read that I could just see him sitting and drooling wanting to see 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 so he could get off. He's a creepy perv.

An Alabama pastor who supports Senate candidate Roy Moore (R) blasted the allegations of sexual harassment against Moore, saying they’re part of a “war on men.” "More women are sexual predators than men," Pastor Franklin Raddish told AL.com. "Women are chasing young boys up and down the road, but we don't hear about that because it's not PC."The news organization spoke to Raddish as part of an effort to speak with every pastor that endorsed Moore before the allegations against him were made public. Nineteen of the 29 pastors who responded told AL.com they were still supporting Moore. thehill.com/homenews/campaign/361060-alabama-pastor-supporting-moore-more-women-are-sexual-predators-than-menI just don't know what to say.....................

“The IRS is building a safe to hold Trump’s tax returns politi.co/2hCLEVm”
How stupid is this? All it does is reinforce the idea that trump is hiding something. And I don’t care if this safe costs $.50 that is a waste of tax paper money.

Brit Hume.....
“Mike Pence’s policy of avoiding being alone with women other than his wife looking better every day, though widely mocked when it first became known.”
No all this says is Mike Pence doesn’t trust himself to keep his hands where they belong.

“Now that the three basketball players are out of China and saved from years in jail, LaVar Ball, the father of LiAngelo, is unaccepting of what I did for his son and that shoplifting is no big deal. I should have left them in jail!”

I truly hope those young men are aware of how lucky they are to be home!

"Women are chasing young boys up and down the road, but we don't hear about that because it's not PC."I've been trying to be fair, so bit my tongue instead of predicting that we would start hearing about a War on Men. Fits right into the Persecution of the Majority preoccupation. (And has been rearing its head for several years among a few too many conservatives in college date rape discussions.) If people haven't been awakened to the fact that lots and lots of women don't disclose harassment/attacks - or wait several years until prompted by events or others' accusations - this is ALL just gong to be perceived as a war against men. That's why we have Brit Hume totally misunderstanding the Mike Pence thing...why some Congressional staffers have suggested not hiring women...and why that jerk gubernatorial candidate got defensive and totally misunderstood the difference between his own sex life versus molestation.

Unfortunately, this could affect others long term! I truly hope those young men are aware of how lucky they are to be home! (hanging head, jail might have been better with the attitude of dear old dad.........) My thought when I saw 45 tweet about this and then read back story was 1. the father's comments were a dumb thing to say. but 2. will 45 EVER rise above and act presidential? <<< at this point #2 is pretty much rhetorical.

(hanging head, jail might have been better with the attitude of dear old dad.........) Doesn’t matter what the father said. In trump’s first tweet on this subject he all but demanded a thank you for doing his job. Looking for praise for what he personally did when chances are he had very little to do with it. Ben Rhodes nailed it IMO.. “Providing support to Americans abroad is a basic function of the US government - not something reserved for people who pay homage to the President.”

Schiff blasts Trump over UCLA tweet: ‘How can someone in such a big office be so small?’ BY BRETT SAMUELS - 11/19/17 04:39 PM EST Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) on Sunday blasted President Trump for suggesting he should have left three UCLA basketball players in a Chinese jail after one player’s father did not express gratitude. “The President would have left American students in a foreign jail because their families didn't lavish sufficient praise on him. How can someone in such a big office be so small?” Schiff tweeted. thehill.com/homenews/house/361131-schiff-blasts-trump-over-ucla-tweet-how-can-someone-in-such-a-big-office-be-soThe peas got to it first!

trump...
“Sen. Jeff Flake(y), who is unelectable in the Great State of Arizona (quit race, anemic polls) was caught (purposely) on “mike” saying bad things about your favorite President. He’ll be a NO on tax cuts because his political career anyway is “toast.”
I read the “your favorite President” and immediately thought he really is nuts. Then I realized he must be talking to what he thinks is his base because the majority of us don’t think he’s a favorite president.

Dem rips Trump: President shouldn't want US citizens to be locked up abroad BY JULIA MANCHESTER - 11/19/17 05:20 PM ESTRep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) ripped President Trump on Sunday after the president said he should have left three UCLA basketball players in jail in China after they were accused of shoplifting. "Dear @realdonaldtrump: As public servants, we help people because it is the right thing to do, not because we want to be praised for it. Also, the US President should never wish for Americans to be locked up in a foreign jail," Lieu tweeted. thehill.com/homenews/house/361134-dem-rips-trump-the-president-should-never-want-us-citizens-to-be-locked-up

Paul Ryan...
“Meet Cindy: a single mom, making $30,000 per year, who hopes to one day get beyond living paycheck to paycheck. With a $700 increase in her tax refund each year under our tax bill, Cindy can start saving for her future.”
Either he is incredibly stupid or he thinks the American People are. Especially the single mother with one daughter making $30,000 a year.
I’m thinking it’s Ryan who is stupid because he has always had a problem understanding what it is like for those trying make ends meet at the lower end of the income level.
Dumb Jerk.

Cindy couldn't even rent an apartment that wasn't a flea-infested rathole around here with her salary, so I don't see how that huge $700 increase in her tax refund will help her out any in Phoenix.
(and don't they keep saying that there are all these people out there who don't even PAY taxes? If Cindy only makes $30,000 per year, and has a daughter, isn't she one of the people who wouldn't have to even PAY taxes? And IF so, then how can she get an increase in her tax refund??)

trump....
“Under President Trump unemployment rate will drop below 4%. Analysts predict economic boom for 2018! @foxandfriends and @varneyco”
I would like to know why when the unemployment rate was at and just under 5% under President Obama it was “fake news”. But under president tiny hands it’s because of his steadfast leadership?
The reality is, it probably would have continue to go down under President Clinton as well.
As far an “economic boom” for 2018 maybe but the San Jose Mercury News has been tracking job growth in Silicon Valley and the tech companies have been shedding jobs. We also know employers have been having a hard time finding workers with the skills they need and to be able to pass a drug test.
