    Been wndering about the timing of the POtuS’s glowing, ass-kissing endorsements of Hillary and her choice of a Sharia Law-loving member of the Muslim Brotherhood to torpedo Trump. Bill’s done a lot of stuff for the various Moslem nations that may have factored in (for those of you conspiratorialists) to the large amounts of money that have glowed into the I Love Bill Foundation. Maybe Hillary’s selling out to the Moslems to get a running start on cash infusions to her own foundation (if anyone ever needed a foundation…). Come to think of it that burka thing just might be a plus for her too…OK, a plus burka…whatever.

      Well fear not, Snopes is on it: http://www.snopes.com/2016/08/04/dnc-lawsuit-process-server-shawn-lucas-has-died/ Considering Snopes I’m sure they’ll find direct connections to the Trump campaign.
      I’d posted sone time back that candidates not of the elite’s approval may be subject to the ‘random act of gun violence’ syndrome. Let’s go back to 1968 where HHH aooarently had the nod from the RAT establishment but RFK was the people’s choice. We move on to 1972 where Tricky Dick was the RINO pick but when George Wallace started to run away with the people’s support…bang…another act of random gun violence.
      Fast forward to the 1992 campaign where bodies dropped in wholesale lots and haven’t stopped since. Ya gotta figure that when the prize is access to the most piwerful seat in the world there isn’t much that the truly dedicated plutocrat won’t do to obtain it.
      Y’all just wait until allllll those guns be confiscated and these politically-based deaths will disappear overnight. In no time we’ll be living on the other side of the hill with Nyet’s renters.

    A thought has occurred to me 😎.

    Why didn’t Cruz endorse Ryan? They are for all intensive purposes on the same team. Why didn’t Scott Walker (if he didn’t and I tend to believe that he did not) shake Nehlen’s hand at the Waukesha Pence rally.

    Why is Ryan suddenly running internet advertisements?

    Why is Ryan on TV commercials trying to sound like he hasn’t voted the way that he has voted?

    Why have I only seen a total of 4 Ryan signs while traveling through miles and miles of District 1? I am not surprised to not see Nehlen signs as I believe Ryan is as retaliatory as the Clintons.

    (Well I have one at my house but I’m not even in Nehlen’s district 😄)

    Why did Trump endorse Ryan someone must have encouraged him to do it and said that it really doesn’t matter and it will go a long way as an act of good will with the party establishment.

    Nehlen just posted that Team Nehlen knocked on 10,000 doors in D1 and the feedback was positive.

    What if? What if as I suspected when Scott didn’t shake Nehlen’s hand it was because Scott knows something about internal data and Nehlen’s numbers are way better than the polls are leading us to believe?

    What if Nehlen wins and Ryan loses? What will the headline scream, “Did Trump’s Endorsement Doom Ryan! Portent of Bad Things to Come for Trump!” Just imagine the hand wringing pundits once again screaming that the end for Trump is nigh.

    Just a thought.

    Attorney Who Filed Fraud Case Against DNC and Hillary Found DEAD… Cause ‘Unknown’

    The sudden, unexplained death of an attorney who led the lawsuit against DNC corruption is riling social media, even as the mainstream media tries to keep it out of the headlines.

    Shawn Lucas, a Bernie Sanders supporter, is the man who served the DNC with legal papers in a lawsuit alleging fraud.
    That allegation was proven true just a week later when Wikileaks released DNC emails showing collusion to fix the primary for Hillary Clinton over Sanders.

    Lucas’ death is the third suspicious death in the past 2 months linked to the DNC and Clinton.

    Lucas died suddenly, and because he is a young man, people are concerned that his death could been connected to his role as the process server for the DNC lawsuit. Lucas was named in a motion filed on July 22, 2016 by the DNC, seeking to dismiss the suit on a technicality.

    Snopes reports that Lucas was found lying on the bathroom floor by his girlfriend when she returned home on the evening of 2 August 2016. Paramedics responding to her 911 call found no signs of life.

    The cause of death is “unknown,” according to authorities, despite the passage of 3 days since.

    I knew I was avoiding FB this morning for a reason. Another Seattle elite. I am so isolated.

    I listened to this and wept. When you realize how many think this man is a suitable leader for America, it speaks so loudly of how degraded our people can become. That it is not obvious to everyone that Trump is a clinical Narcissist who can’t possibly care about others is terrifying. That the vulgarity and hatred of his words encouraging the worst kind of hate and prejudice is somehow acceptable in a leader just upsets me to the core. I don’t make political remarks on FB but maybe it is time to say something. Please, I ask you my friends, do not buy into this rhetoric.

      I wonder when this fad began of calling any politician you hate a psychopath or clinical narcissist or any of the other medical names for the severely mentally ill that are thrown around all over internet comments. I read the same “description” over and over, and I remember seeing it when Obama was elected. Were they using it for Bush? Was Bush characterized as a psychopath or just a stupid cowboy? OK, now I’ll wait, because I bet Nyet has a historical reference showing one of the Founders calling his opponent crazy.

        President Washington’s enemies called him a cheapskate, a hyena, a horse beater, a spoiled child, and a tyrannical monster, among other epithets. “You are utterly incapable to steer the political ship,” wrote one outraged critic.

        I’ve read stuff further back in the late 1600’s from the Dutch.

        Here, Pam. This is a link to the 1896 book “The True George Washington” by Paul Leicester Ford.

        https://archive.org/details/truegeorgewashin01ford

        In every country boasting a history there may be observed a tendency to make its leaders or great men superhuman. Whether we turn to the legends of the East, the folk-lore of Europe, or the traditions of the native races of America, we find a mythology based upon the acts of man gifted with superhuman powers. In the unscientific, primeval periods in which these beliefs were born and elaborated into oral and written form, their origin is not surprising. But to all who have studied the creation of a mythology, no phase is a more curious one than that the keen, practical American of to-day should engage in the same process of hero-building which has given us Jupiter, Wotan, King Arthur, and others. By a slow evolution we have well-nigh discarded from the lives of our greatest men of the past all human faults and feelings; have enclosed their greatness in glass of the clearest crystal, and hung up a sign, “Do not touch.” Indeed, with such characters as Washington, Franklin, and Lincoln we have practically adopted the English maxim that “the king can do no wrong.” In place of men, limited by human limits, and influenced by human passions, we have demi-gods, so stripped of human characteristics as to make us question even whether they deserve much credit for their sacrifices and deeds.

        But with this process of canonization have we not lost more than we have gained, both in example and in interest? Many, no doubt, with the greatest veneration for our first citizen, have sympathized with the view expressed by Mark Twain, when he said that he was a greater man than Washington, for the latter “couldn’t tell a lie, while he could, but wouldn’t” We have endless biographies of Franklin, picturing him in all the public stations of life, but all together they do not equal in popularity his own human autobiography, in which we see him walking down Market Street with a roll under each arm, and devouring a third. And so it seems as if the time had come to put the shadow-boxes of humanity round our historic portraits, not because they are ornamental in themselves, but because they will make them examples, not mere idols.

          The one in NOLA? The Weather Service classified it as an EFO, the houses it blew over were abandoned since Katrina and had a hundred code violations that the city never bothers to enforce. Neighbors were waiting for them to fall down, as are many others around the city, on their own.
          We get storms like this here in late summer, the heat humidity and alcohol fumes tend to set ’em off. I’ve gone through 21 inches of rain in less than 24 hours in the city, and a few more that ran close to that, we were welcomed to the area many years ago by a ‘rain event’ that left us walking almost knee deep in flood water on Veterans Blvd in Metairie. Nothing surprises me any more.

    Signs Emerge in Wisconsin: Globalists for Paul Ryan

    http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presidential-race/2016/08/06/signs-emerge-wisconsin-globalists-paul-ryan/

    JANESVILLE, WI — New campaign signs are trolling Paul Ryan throughout his district.

    Signs that resemble the lettering and coloring of Paul Ryan’s official campaign signs have popped up throughout the district, which purport to support Ryan for Congress in light of his globalist worldview.

    I wonder if this came from the Nehlen campaign.
