Thanks Mike Millner for these quotations. I have a few quotes from Winston Churchill that I would love to share with you. I’m kind of a history buff and admire strong people in history that have taken a stand that changed the world. During WWII whe...

When watching O’Biden and company celebrating their inflation reduction act one has to wonder if they didn’t get a little heavy on the smoke in their fantasyland of smoke and mirrors. What part of inflation was 1.4 percent when he took over? It is...

Thanks to Alanna Anderson for addressing the issue of elementary kids driving their friends around in golf carts and do the parents know or not. I have seen this multiple times, and they are not paying attention to things around them, causing near...

This summer I have seen many golf carts going by my house, driven by young children. I’ve seen the golf carts with 4-5 kids on it. I’ve seen a child hanging onto the back, standing. I’ve seen a poor dog, praying he doesn’t fly out, when they take th...

The highlight of the week so far has been watching Liz Cheney get her Republican In Name Only butt handed to her 65-29 by a Trump backed candidate. So far the ones supported by the Donald are winning at a ninety-five percent rate. Hopefully the...
