United Nations Heritage Sites!
NOT United States Heritagesites any longer!


Yep, you can thank Wild Willie for turning our national parks, waterways, and monuments over to UN control.

Visit any of them and you will see the UN designation plaques on the entrances somewhere

The liberal bliss of living in cali!

Orange County, CA – Annabelle Lockwood makes the best homemade lemonade around Fountain Valley. Using her grandma’s recipe, a homemade stand built by her father and a lot of passion, she serves the gourmet refreshments – classic or pink lemonade, and flavors like peach, blueberry ginger and watermelon – to eager customers and charitable events.

But her passion is being tested by the regulatory hand of the State. Orange County authorities shut down Annabelle’s “small business” and gave her 30 days to get the proper permit and license.

The permit will cost around $200, but in order to secure the permit Annabelle will have to meet a bevy of government requirements – costing $3,500 – just to serve fresh-squeezed fruit juices to thirsty passersby.

my mistake, I was looking at the 69 lottery

when he was 8 and Trump was 22(and wasnt drafted)

but, correct, the LAST draft call being 1972


Obama was 11 and Trump was 25 (and not drafted)


25 would have put you in a draft percentile that probably wouldn't be called up except in a state of "war"..... which was never declared during the Vietnam conflict

The 1st act is to come for the guns (like they did during Katrina) and anything they consider to be "offensive or extra" that anyone has stock piled.

Of course that's after they have taken control of communications, food, water, fuel, transportation and anything else essential to survival.... to control the masses.

No more need for sports, the Kardashians, or reality TV. Their job is over!

BTW..... ya gotta love the opening minutes of the movie as our POTUS speaks to his agenda.....

The movie describes a fictional attack on the United States by its own government, working in concert with a global terrorist organization and the United Nations. Citizens must fight for survival when the attack leaves America in a state of martial law.

New Revelations Reveal Greater Falsehoods of the Iran Deal

It seems that barely a week goes by without a new and troubling revelation emerging related to the Iran Deal. Most recently, we learned from the Institute for Science and International Security (ISIS) that Iran was allowed to selectively violate several provisions of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) in order to meet the conditions necessary for the Islamic Republic to begin receiving relief from economic sanctions.

The falsehoods that characterize the Deal actually predate the agreement itself. As far back as December 2013, President Obama said that Iran did not need its fortified underground nuclear facility in Fordo, nor its facility in Arak. But the White House must have known that at virtually the same moment, the P5+1 was concluding negotiation of an early draft of the Iran Deal in which Iran was allowed to keep both facilities, albeit with some restrictions.

US Government Mistakenly Grants Citizenship to Hundreds of Immigrants

The U.S. government has mistakenly granted citizenship to at least 858 immigrants who had pending deportation orders, according to an audit released today by the Homeland Security Department’s internal watchdog.

The department's inspector general, John Roth, found that these individuals came from countries with high rates of immigration fraud or were registered as national security concerns. His team did not identify the individuals involved or the "special interest countries" from which they emigrated.

It's amazing the actions being taken on the left to crucify Trump for his actions on this when it was the Clinton campaign of 2008 that started it

The wicked witch and her VP are now calling their own media liars as the facts are being checked and aired to the public after she has raged that Trump is racist and should apologize to Oblowme and the public.... for something she started.... as usual laugh

DOES HILLARY HAVE A SID BLUMENTHAL BIRTHER PROBLEM?

“Obama campaign manager David Plouffe accused the Clinton campaign Monday of ‘shameful offensive fear-mongering’ by circulating a photo as an attempted smear,” the Politico reported in February of 2008. “Plouffe said in a statement: ‘On the very day that Senator Clinton is giving a speech about restoring respect for America in the world, her campaign has engaged in the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we’ve seen from either party in this election. This is part of a disturbing pattern that led her county chairs to resign in Iowa, her campaign chairman to resign in New Hampshire, and it’s exactly the kind of divisive politics that turns away Americans of all parties and diminishes respect for America in the world,’ said Plouffe.”

As the McClatchy News Service reported yesterday, during the 2008 campaign, “former McClatchy Washington Bureau Chief James Asher tweeted Friday that Blumenthal had ‘told me in person’ that Obama was born in Kenya…‘Blumenthal and I met together in my office and he strongly urged me to investigate the exact place of President Obama’s birth, which he suggested was in Kenya. We assigned a reporter to go to Kenya, and that reporter determined that the allegation was false.’”

Ford will expand to Mexico,, replacing the production of small cars here with producing larger cars in their place,,,,

Not for nothing, but I think its important in the details so people dont get the impression that companies are 'taking jobs' that are here and moving them elsewhere,,,,

although many up and leave, others merely expand,,,,


What you claim as "expansion" entails closing plants and ending jobs in the US. But it's not a move?

96 Percent Of Hillary’s Charitable Donations In 2015 Went To Clinton Foundation


Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill deducted $1,042,000 in charitable contributions last year — $1 million of which went to their own family non-profit, the Clinton Family Foundation.


Clinton released her tax forms on Friday in a move that is seen as a way to pressure Donald Trump to release his taxes. The GOP nominee has refused to release the records, saying that he is under a routine audit.

The documents show that the power couple earned $10,745,378 last year, mostly on income earned from giving public speeches.

(Correction: This article initially identified the Clinton non-profit that received the bulk of the Clintons’ charitable donations as the Clinton Foundation. The $1 million contribution actually went to the Clinton Family Foundation. The Clintons control the entity, but it is separate from the Clinton Foundation.)<more>


Yep.... take it out of your right pocket and put in in your left.... along with the taxpayer funds from the write-off for a "charitable" donation

Former Pro-Hillary Journo Describes Sid Blumenthal's Slimy Rumor-Mongering in 2008

Another journalist --the second one in two days -- came out Saturday to confess that Sid Blumenthal aggressively shopped the rumor to him in 2008 about then-Senator Barack Obama being born in Kenya. Meanwhile, former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau spent some time on Twitter today trying to stamp out the new narrative.

That Jon Favreau is a funny guy. A wordsmith who, it turns out, is also a jokesmith.

Here he is, for instance, yucking it up with a Hillary Clinton cut-out at a party after the 2008 election:

john-favreau-hillary-clinton.

Funny stuff. That's Favreau on the left by the way -- years before the GOP #WarOnWomen, so no harm, no foul.

Favreau's rakish sense of humor made another appearance last May on the Charlie Rose show when he, along with two other former Obama speechwriters, Jon Lovett and David Litt, were on the PBS program to gush about Obama and the art of speechwriting. When the subject of Obama's infamous, oft-repeated false health-care promise came up, they all had a good laugh at the taxpayers' expense.

“Lovett wrote the line about, ‘If you like your insurance, you can keep it,’” Favreau grinned with a gleam in his eye. “How dare you!” Lovett responded, as the room erupted with laughter.

Over five million individual health plan holders lost their insurance in the fall of 2013 after Obama promised they wouldn't. Tens of millions more have been clobbered with skyrocketing premiums. Six and a half years after the unpopular law passed and three years after it was launched, it remains unpopular. The RCP polling average shows only 39.2 percent of the American people like ObamaCare and 48.8 percent are against it.

But it's pretty funny how Team Obama pulled the wool over everyone's eyes, I guess. Like they did with "shovel ready jobs" (#LOL), "an anti-Mohammed YouTube video caused the Benghazi attack" (#ROTFL), "ISIS is the jayvee team" (#LMAO), and so many other witty whoppers over the years.

You would think a guy with Jon Favreau's particular talents would be able to recognize a lie when he saw one, but when he saw former press secretary for George W. Bush Ari Fleischer tweet that Hillary Clinton ought to apologize to Obama because her 2008 campaign was the originator of “birther” theories, he was indignant. How dare Ari Fleischer say such a thing. Why, that's a shameful, disgusting lie!

Via Twitchy:

.@AriFleischer you're lying, Ari - and you're smart enough to know you're lying, which makes it even worse.
— Jon Favreau (@jonfavs) September 16, 2016

.@AriFleischer you're lying, and you know it, and it's disgusting.

As PJ Media reported Friday, a McClatchy Washington Bureau chief claimed Sid Blumenthal shopped that rumor to him in 2008. Another (former) Clinton loyalist in the media made the same claim on Saturday but with much more juicy detail.

In "Confessions of a Hillary Insider," Larry Johnson of No Quarter said that he is "shocked at the audacity of Hillary Clinton to decry Donald Trump as a birther because her campaign not only pushed that item in a bid to discredit Barack Obama, but mounted a sustained campaign attack Obama on a broad array of issues."

How do I know? I was part of that effort and was in regular email and phone coordination with Sidney Blumenthal. Sidney was the conduit who fed damaging material to me that I subsequently posted on my blog.

In some cases Sid Blumenthal actually provided a draft piece that I would slightly modify and publish under my name. Most of the time, however, Sid provided background information and researched material that I would use to craft pieces. How many? I am providing the links to 63 blog articles that I posted (and in one case was posted by Susan Hudgens, who assisted with the blog) between January 2008 and June 30, 2008.

Here is simple summary of material (in writing or through a verbal briefing) that I received from Sid?

Information surrounding the corrupt business relationship between Barack Obama and Tony Rezko.

Information about Barack Obama’s ties to Palestinian radicals.

Information concerning Barack Obama’s longstanding ties to the American terrorist, Bill Ayers.

Information concerning Barack Obama’s close ties to radical clerics–i.e., Jeremiah Wright and Father Michael Pfleger.

Information concerning allegations that Barack Obama was not a natural born citizen.

Information concerning Barack Obama being adopted by Indonesian Muslim Lolo Soetoro.

The big Kahuna of the anti-Obama dump was the allegation that Republicans had a tape of Michelle Obama in which she used the disparaging term “Whitey.” I published that after being told about the “tape” by Sid Blumenthal. (I learned a few weeks later that the story of the tape actually originated with Media Matter’s David Brock and he confirmed its existence to me in person).

Johnson continues:

Listening to Hillary Clinton cry crocodile tears over Trump’s questioning Obama’s birth place and eligibility to be President in 2011 as a “racist” attack is the ultimate example that Hillary is cynical and dishonest. Yes, it is true that the words, “Obama is a muslim” or “Obama is not a natural born American” never passed her lips. But it is also true that that people very close to her, such as Sidney Blumenthal, were pushing those stories and trying desperately to promote those memes.

Hillary knew about all of these lines of attack on Obama. In fact I was told by Sid on one occasion in the summer of 2008 that the Big Dog (Bill of course) was very pleased with the pieces going up at NoQuarterUSA and thought they were helping Hillary.

Blumenthal denies it all, of course:

Statement from Sid Blumenthal to @foxnews, denies starting #Birther rumor. pic.twitter.com/EugA5QsKIZ
— Jennifer Griffin (@JenGriffinFNC) September 17, 2016

Whom to believe? The two journos who are finally willing after eight years to speak out about this, or Sid Blumenthal, David (Bouffant) Brock, and of course Jon Favreau, who is still splitting a gut over the "you can keep your plan" Obamacare lie?

Report: Clinton Foundation donors give $216M, get seats to White House dinners

http://www.yahoo.com/finance/video/report-clinton-foundation-donors-216m-213407940.html

As many as 205 Clinton Foundation donors, who collectively contributed a whopping $216 million since 2009, were honored with prestigious seats at least one White House State Dinner, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation.

The investigation also found that at least 15 of the Clinton Foundation's corporate donors, who contributed $47 million, bagged invitations to two or more official state dinners.

It was also discovered that the invitations were not sent out from the White House, but the Department State's Office of Protocol, which constitutes of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's loyalists.

Dennis Cheng, who was working as Clinton's protocol deputy chief, is believed to have "walked away" with the prized donors list before he joined the Clinton Foundation as chief fundraiser. Cheng is now Hillary's national fundraiser and is leading her presidential bid to raise $2 billion. He is also referred to as "Hillary Clinton's $2 billion money man," according to The Daily Beast.

Clinton Foundation Spent Less Than 6 Percent On Charitable Grants In 2014

The tax-exempt organization's grants to charitable organizations declined by 40 percent between 2013 and 2014.

The Clinton Foundation spent less than 6 percent of its budget on charitable grants in 2014, according to documents the organization filed with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in 2015.

During the 2014 tax year, the tax-exempt foundation spent a total of $91.2 million, but less than $5.2 million of that money, or 5.7 percent, was granted to charitable organizations, the group’s tax filings show. The Clinton Foundation raised nearly $178 million in 2014. The organization’s charitable grants also declined significantly when compared to its donations in 2013. Compared to its 2013 charitable grants of $8.8 million, the Clinton Foundation’s grants in 2014 declined by more than 40 percent, even as its revenue over the same period increased by 20 percent. According to the tax filings, the Clinton Foundation is currently sitting on $354 million in assets, including $125 million in cash or cash equivalents and $108 million in property or equipment.

The tax records, which were filed with the IRS in November of 2015, show that the Clinton Foundation spent far more on overhead expenses like travel ($7.9 million) than it did on charitable grants in 2014. The group also spent more on rent and office supplies (a total of $6.6 million) than it did on charitable grants. The Clinton Foundation’s IRS forms show that even its depreciation expense ($5.3 million) — an accounting classification that takes into account the wear and tear of an organization’s assets — exceeded the tax-exempt organization’s charitable grant outlays.

like I Said

I respect PEOPLE


I do not have an idea how to respect items, and things,, but I am conscience of not being disruptive(a type of disrespect) , or vulgar

and so its fine , keep insisting how important it is to respect a flag while posting disrespectful things about people

just remember


respect has nothing to do with whether we agree, but how we disagree,, think about it

What work sojourn?standing up to recite words with hands over my heart? or are you going to suggest only militarly americans should be able to voice concern or distaste for anything?


Are you gonna go elsewhere because of your dislike of american politicians, or american 'lib's or american policies?


give me a break,,,,


Me? I served. I also vote, volunteer, salute and respect.

It's not about politics or country, it's about the sacrifice and cost of myself and others that allow us to enjoy your rights and pleasures.

You have no idea of respect obviously or you simply don't care because you have no idea or even a clue of what your enjoyment has cost anyone who bought it for you!

It's not even about a flag or a pledge.... it's about the price paid to live under what it symbolizes



and? as asked before, is it only vets that should be able to voice concerns or have expectations in america?

I also vote, I also volunteer, when I can, I dont salute or DISRESPECT

what does reciting someones poem have to do with a vets 'sacrifice'? its a custom,, vets sacrificed long before the pledge was written and were appreciated without a requirement of a 'pledge'

I have plenty of idea of what respect is, thats why you dont find me telling americans to leave if they dont agree with me

revere and see the flag as a reflection of your personal value, thats your perogative

but I hate to think you truly believe that someones appreciation for you or any other vet hangs on the reverence of a flag

if its not about the pledge, than why whinge that someone quietly kneels?




Like I said.... no idea of respect
