1. Were you surprised by the deposal of Assad in Syria? Very much so - even more surprising than the collapse of the South Vietnamese in 1975. 2. Which world leader do you think will be the next to be deposed? Two hopeful candidaates are Putin and the Ayatolla of Iran - but I think the most likely to leave is Biden - get Harris in long enough to give him a pardon for everything he has done in the last thirty years - though child abuse is not a federal crime. 3. Should drugs be decriminalized / and or sold over the counter - especially opiate pain relievers? I think so - I have friends who hare in chronic long term pain who can't get even low level opiates. 4. Were you surprised that Trump was named Person of the Year by Time Magazine? Absolutely - though after everything else I don't know who else they could have hamed. 5. Unidentified drones have been flying over New Jersey and New York. What should the government's response to this be and which part of which government should have the authority to intervene? The federal government should give states and local jurisdictions the right to defend their own airspace. And letting private individuals shoot down the low flying ones would be a good idea. The worst thing the federal government can do is sent a 30 million dollar airplane and a 2 million dollar missile after a one thousand dollar drone - a policemen in a traffic helicopter using a 12 gauge shotgun at close range would work just as well. For the bigger ones - a proximity rounded 20 mm can be used as well. --

// The first woman president will be a big deal // Oh, I don't know, Pat. I grew up in a female world, but the focused grievances of those days are gone, replaced by eternal media anger about everything. Women presidents and prime ministers are no longer even novelties. Celebrity is greatly overrated. Let it go. • People who are intellectually two-dimensional see the world in two-dimensional terms: not as a rich and complex whole with which one tinkers at risk of unintended consequences, but as a pattern or schema that can be understood through a cursory examination. And, when in government, they therefore fool themselves into believing that politics is a matter, basically, of flowcharts: if X, then do Y, and Z will follow. - David McGrogan

1. Does Putin's comment about Trump's behavior after becoming shot impress you?ti Don't know;I haven't heard Putin's comment. 2. Do you think Biden will resign so Harris can be an interim president? Not likely, but Biden has done similar things all in the name of virtue-signaling. 3. Do you think the RNC should help pay off the DNC's campaign debt Hell, no! The DNC spent almost three times as much as the RNC, and ended up spending more than they took in and lost miserably. Their commercials assumed that the voters were stupid, and they repeatedly played the same ones hundreds of times in quick succession. 4. Should Trump be allowed to appoint who he wants to his cabinet Subject to congressional approval, as all other presidents have. A few might get rejected, and I assume that Trump has sent a few out there to stir up the Democrats and liberal Republicans, and they might get rejected, but almost all the rest will be confirmed. 5. LIberal women are threatening a sex strike - is this a good thing? This is either Lysistrata or Thezmorphoriazusae, I'm not sure, but it's just an elitist ploy to dig at the uneducated masses who voted for Trump, not a serious movement. Ed

Fascism is a populist political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual. It is associated with a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, and that is characterized by severe economic and social regimentation and by forcible suppression of opposition. This is exactly what Donald Trump proposes. Only if the new president pays for it and no government subsidy is allowed. Yes. Many people were fooled. It was the false accusation that Haitian immigrants in Ohio were eating people's pets. No. Aloha, Celeste Rogers

I like Angela Merkel for this honor. No, not in any way. It's for black entrepreneurs. It gives them a chance to make up for lost time during the slavery and discrimination eras. Unlikely. I have no idea. Nor does it really matter. Certainly. Aloha, Celeste Rogers

[CoMe] Shocking Report from Inside Trump's Nazi Rally
5
The Democrats are trying to turn a comedian who told a couple of jokes offending Puerto Ricans two hours before Trump took the podium into an election issue, and link a Nazi rally held in a long-demolished Madison Square Garden that was 13 blocks away from the present building and 90 years ago to Trump's choice of venue. It shows how desperate the Democrats are to find an issue.
