      Reading the dictionary and learnng at least one new word every day is never a bad idea either. Slitaire may pass the time agreeably, but it doesn't teach us much, does it?

      Perhaps not as fatuous and farfetched an idea a you may have thought Dick.

      At the rate things are going, INSURRECTION TIME may be just around the corner.

    Here's a good suggestion:

    Start reading the Bible from cover to cover. A chapter or two a day should be sufficient Slow and steady meets the challenge

    Too much Bible at one time makes for Spirtul indiegstion - not a good thing .

    You can skip all the "begats" if you like. ;-)

    Because Adam Schiff is a member of Congress he thinks that can say and do anything he wants, destroy anyone he pleases? Use this cloak of immunity for his personal nefarious, vile contemptible,hate filled agenda? Even use lies and our courts to destroy a president? This is not normal politics...It is the actions of a madman...He should be deemed certifiably insane, and kicked out of Congress

    Now that the Justice Department has dropped the phony criminal case against General Michael Flynn
    Now Let's Start Indicting The Real Criminals! The Crookes in the House of Representative, the former Crooks in the FBI, Obama’s former staff, and maybe Obama himself, Lets get them ALL, Let them feel our vengeful anger. Let them be punished for THEIR crimes.
