Bills-Soapbox

So Hillary and Bill have released their tax return for 2015. I took a look at it and beside the fact that they made $10 million mainly being paid for giving speeches there were a couple of things that made me say WTF. To start with neither of them are collecting social security. Maybe they have elected not to so they won’t have to show on their tax return what they would be expected to live on if they didn’t have all this other income. Or maybe they don’t want anyone to know how much they would be getting from Social Security on top of their enormous self earnings. I’ve done tax returns for people who have incomes in excess…

Okay… we have the pictures of the father of the Pulse Nightclub mass shooting sitting behind Hillary Clinton at her rally last night in Kissimmee. Hillary’s explanation is that it was an open event and they didn’t know he was in the crowd until after the event was over… I’m pretty sure anyone that close to the candidate and in direct line of sight of the camera is vetted, scrutinized and scripted for maximum political gain. So that leaves us with just one question… how stupid does Hillary really think we are?  

The political silly season is well under way and the lame stream media is working overtime on Hillary’s election campaign. Hillary gets a couple of point bump in certain polls after the Democratic Convention and the media describes it as a surge. On the other hand Trump is villainized after trading barbs with the parents of a serviceman who lost his life in the Middle East, the media using words such as imploding and in turmoil to describe the Republican campaign. Obama tries to make the case that this is the first time in history that we have a presidential candidate that is grossly unqualified to be commander in chief… Must be he has forgotten all those who made the…

It must be nice to be able to walk around with your rose colored glasses and see the world as some utopia free of any crime or violence… That’s what Obama made it sound like today when he spoke in defense of his policies after last nights acceptance speech by Donald Trump. I sacrificed a couple of hours of my time last night and listened to Trump speak at the close of the Republican National Convention. I watched it on C-SPAN, which pretty much stayed with the convention and let the speakers message be heard… When it was over I switched the television over to NBC, which is what I watch in the morning before going to work. I shouldn’t…

The news that Hillary Clinton was off the hook for her illegal email activities was a bit of a shock even though I don’t think there is anyone on the planet that wasn’t expecting it. Especially after Bill Clinton had that little private meeting with the US Attorney General where all they did was talk about the grandkids… Right! We all know Bill either threatened her and/or told her she would keep her job as long as she did him a couple little favors. Of course Hillary might hope that the issue goes quietly into the night, however I’m sure she’s going to have to deal with the issue all the way through the campaign. Trump is not going to let anyone forget…

President Obama has come up with a clever way to answer the allegations by Trump over the non use of the words “Radical Islamic Terrorist.” He has spun it around and making it sound like Trump thinks all we have to do is utter the words and the problem goes away. It’s another example of just how stupid Obama thinks the average US citizen is. Trump has never said the problem would go away if Obama would just utter the words Radical Islamic Terrorist… Trump is saying you have to be able to identify the problem before you can ever find a solution to the problem and since Obama can’t identify the problem he’s never going to solve the problem.…

It’s just over 5 months until Election Day and I know I’m not alone in wishing it was over already. This is the first Presidential election that I can remember where we know this far out who both major party nominees are. 40% are staunchly entrenched behind Trump and 40% are solidly behind Hillary, which leaves 20% sitting on an imaginary fence waiting for some divine intervention to guide them in the voting booth. Good luck with that. Yesterday afternoon Hillary Clinton made what was advertised as a Foreign Policy Speech… what we heard was her typical stump speech demonizing Donald Trump, followed by Donald Trump calling Hillary names. I think we’ve already heard all we are going to hear…
