As Trump Gallups Into 2018...

As the new year gets off to its running start some things to consider.

Please feel free to comment on any or all of the linked articles. Keep comments on topic, relevant, respectful, and free of vulgarity. Failure to do so will be responded to with immediate deletion when detected.

In response to protests in Iran, President Trump is calling for regime change:

Yup, we know from experience how well that one worked out.

Former Joint Chiefs chairman: Nuclear war with North Korea closer than ever

Probably what tRump's regime change will require.

Trump says U.S. has gotten 'nothing' from Pakistan aid

Anyone else see a trend developing here?

This new year, tell Trump: Enough

We should certainly give it our best shot. But, won't it kind of be like talking to a wall and expecting it to answer you?

    Regarding "regime change" and Iran? We, along with Britain, already did that. Remember how that turned out? Trump is a history ignoramus, so he probably has no knowledge of how America with Britain got rid of Iran's democratically elected leader (who had intended to nationalize Iran's oil), and how that led to the installation of the Shah and subsequently the Islamic readicalization of Iran. If Trump had any historical sense, he wouldn't use the term "regime change" because Britain and the U.S. already disrupted Iran when the CIA orchestrated one in 1953.

    I have a relative (an Army officer) who was just deployed for the second time to Afghanistan and another relative who's in the U.S. Navy. I watch the nincompoop who is laughingling called the CiC and think about them and how that nincompoop holds their lives, and the lives of millions of people around the glove in his incompetent, tiny hands.

    I have a relative (an Army officer) who was just deployed for the second time to Afghanistan and another relative who's in the U.S. Navy. I really can’t understand how or why they would stay in the Military with a nincompoop like Obama as their Comander in Chief. Obama’s the nincompoop holds their lives, and the lives of millions of people around the glove in his incompetent hands.
    I thank God every day that we now have a REAL man in charge of the Military so that we can once again be proud of this Nation.

      It is clear you fail to recognize the fact President Obama was infinitely more intelligent and qualified than the current occupant of the big chair in the White House.

      Let me make it simple for ya. Offer some positive data on Trump, backed up by credible sources and we'll discuss.

      As for REAL men, I'll simply say that is a subjective observation based on whatever bias one holds. As you seem to admire the Trumpmainian Devil and hate former President Obama we understand where your bias is..

      Who knows? Who cares? But if I were to make a guess he, she, or it is one of the regulars.

      They are actually amusing in a way. I can only imagine how much their heads must feel like vacuums. The future of the nation's health now hangs in the balance. And I'm not betting on it ending well.

      I think the real “moran” is the one who takes the time to read and comment on something he thinks is shitty. And then, doesn’t even say what he disagrees with, tries to refute what is written, or present data or evidence to the contrary.

( Reuters ) - Global leaders on Saturday arranged a round of emergency calls to discuss the twin debt crises in Europe and the United States that are causing turmoil in financial markets . After a week that saw $2.5 trillion wiped off global stock markets, they are under pressure to show political leadership and reassure markets that Western governments have both the will and ability to reduce their huge and growing public debt loads. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who chairs the G7/G20 group of leading economies, conferred with Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron ahead of a call planned for this weekend by G7 finance ministers and central bankers. "They discussed the euro area and the U.S. debt downgrade. Both agreed the importance of working together, monitoring the situation closely ...

When and How Will it End?

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace of Independent Conservatism This is America. We are an English speaking nation. We have distinct and traditional American cultural values. We have some Americans in our population who have difficulty speaking a coherent sentence. We have many who cannot construct a complete and proper sentence.

Thoughts On the Civil War and What Precipitated It...

by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth Over at Contra O'Reilly Will Hart has been running a interesting series on the Civil War and what the primary causes were. Historians continue to disagree with the root, or primary causes. However it is generally accepted among knowledgeable and unbiased experts that slavery had very little to do with the onset of the War Between the States. Causes were primarily economic and constitutional. Will, in his posts has done a good job of pointing this out with supporting documentation. This site offers the following, a July 2013 article by David Hirsch in support of Will Hart's arguments. Arguments this site wholly concurs with. Arthur Hirsch's recent article about the Battle of Gettysburg reveals a disturbing ignorance of the political dynamics that brought this nation to a war that 150 years later remains the most cataclysmic event in our history ("A defining day relived," July 2). It accepts the sh...
