So, the Hillary camp, after finding out that Hillary outed a USA operative via her illegal email server and got him hanged in Iran, needs a diversion. So they are screaming for Trump's tax returns. (Darlene Reynolds)
It's the timing; Hillary may have gotten Amiri killed by outing him. What do we learn from tax returns. She's certainly not going to show all her illegal contributions to her foundation. http://video.foxnews.com/v/5074591695001/eric-shawn-reports-the-execution-and-the-e-mails/?#sp=show-clips
When Democrats have strange tax returns, like Biden's paltry contributions (or Obama's that jumped up when he knew he was going to run for president) or back taxes not paid by Sharpton, it seems to be a resume enhancement.
Darlene suggests that with all his businesses, Trump's tax returns are probably comprised of thousands of pages and forms. It's the diversion that the Hillary camp is salivating for, because they (and the biased media) would talk about nothing else from here till the election.
Trump doesn't prepare his own tax returns. All tax loopholes (the rest of us call them deductions) have been designed by Congress, Democrats and Republicans. Trump, for all his faults, has never created tax laws to benefit the wealthy, even if he uses them. It would be very easy for Democrats who complain about the wealthy to just prepare their own returns and take no deductions, but no one will do that. Obama has been lusting after medical deductions which tax payers get, and the exclusions businesses get for offering insurance to employees which is the #1 benefit for business, and Obama thinks it belongs to him (the eventual aim of Obamacare). He also wants our tax exclusion on retirement savings and the mortgage deduction--thinks it all belongs to him/government. I'm sure Donald pays YUGE amounts to tax lawyers to get legal deductions, and Hillary's cronies in the media would be all over that like flies confusing the public and ignoring her foundation's shady dealings as a "charitable" organization that benefits only 2 people--Bill and Hillary. Chelsea is so rich she probably doesn't need it.
The way a Democrat politician thinks is that medical, mortgage and retirement deductions aren't fair--the poor really can't use them so the rest of us shouldn't have them.

Why such a slow recovery?
Some liberals/progressives/Democrats say the slow recovery from the recession (theoretically it ended in June 2009 before the ARRA even kicked in) is because Obama was left such a mess by Bush. Recessions, small and large seem to roll around about every 10 years, and the recovery takes longer than the drop. The Great Depression of the 1930s is a good example, or bad, depending on your politics. Many believe Roosevelt extended it by about 5 years through government meddling; others believe he saved the country. But that was then, this is now.
Obama’s policies have created the slow recovery through costly new regulations and a very “efficient“ bureaucracy--which compounds the problem. President Obama’s regulators have completed their 600th major rule. A major rule imposes costs of more than $100 million. Bush also loved regulations, but Obama has exceed him by 20%. And it isn't over til it's over.
"The Administration has already issued 40 major rules in 2016 and it may have as many as 50 more in the pipeline. In only the past few months the Administration has issued major rules on drones ($2.6 billion); a fiduciary rule for retirement savings ($31.5 billion); and new rules on Arctic drilling ($2.1 billion). Going forward, the Administration plans to finish up greenhouse gas standards for heavy-duty trucks ($31 billion), efficiency rules for manufactured housing ($4.1 billion), and more."
He'll push more through as he packs up to leave Washington, and can be confident if Hillary is elected that she will complete his economy killing plans. http://www.wsj.com/articles/the-all-time-regulation-record-1470435716

Music at Lakeside in Week 7 of season 2016
The evening programs this week at Lakeside Chautauqua have been quite spectacular. Our “week” begins on Saturday, so the Saturday night program is usually the big showcase, and she certainly didn’t disappoint. It was Megan Hilty, a TV and Broadway star with whom I’m not familiar, but she is a niece of long time Lakesiders Tom (deceased) and Jan Hilty. She performed as Glinda in Wicked, and has made guest appearances in Bones, The Closer, Ugly Betty and Desperate Housewives. She appeared for 2 years in the TV show Smash, and although I didn’t see it, apparently many others did, because the front row seats were filled with fans. Smash is a fictional account of two women who want the part of Marilyn Monroe in a musical stage play. She played Ivy in the show and at Lakeside sang a number of songs from Smash. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwHH7mbGjBc
I don’t always go down to the park on Sunday evening (usually local performers), but the July 31 program was a group called the Ottawa County Blue Grass Band, and they were wonderful. Even though the park benches can get hard, they were worth the sit. A father and his two sons, plus a friend from Fremont. The weather was glorious and we could see the sailboats on Lake Erie as we sat under the trees. Many people having picnics on the lawn, or sitting in their golf carts on the street watching. This video is from the Hayes Presidential Center in Fremont.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--jpofPo3hE
On Wednesday we enjoyed the opening night of our summer symphony with a program of “light classics,” followed by a reception. This is music director Robert Cronquist’s 46th season, and the 53th season of the symphony.
Thursday’s program was really different--not exactly a monologue, not exactly a solo music performance. It was called Six Guitars and the artist Chase Padgett performed as 6 different characters playing 6 styles of music--an 87 year old blues player married six times, a Spanish classical guitarist, R & B, folk, rock and country. He was spectacular in each style as he told their stories, and in the end, each character confesses how he enjoys other styles. We also learned a lot about each genre. http://www.chasepadgett.com/shows/6-guitars/video/
My husband was so excited about this show. He's taking guitar lessons from Dr. Richard Smoot in Columbus and drives there once a week. Wednesday evening he carried some sheet music with us to the opening of the symphony because he needed an explanation about notation. The first 2 musicians--an excellent pianist and a public school music teacher--he asked didn't know, then he found a violinist who could answer his question He is really committed.
I learn so much at Lakeside. While waiting for the 6 Guitars program to start, the woman next to me told me about her battle with sun poisoning, which is different than sun burn. Then she pulled out of her purse flesh colored "sleeves" that she can pull on if she's wearing a short sleeve shirt; kind of looked like hose without feet. Sun protective clothing is quite expensive she told me, so she searched the internet and found these sleeves which are for tattooed people who are not suppose to show their tats at work--much cheaper. Next she's going to work on using knee-highs cutting off the feet. But some tattoo sleeve covers are really fake tattoo designs--looks like you have them instead of covering them.
On Friday evening we were just blown away by “The Sons of Serendip.” If they ever come to a venue within 50 miles of you, get there and take some friends. They are 4 men who were friends in college, all have advanced degrees (3 in music performance) and “day jobs,” but won 2 years ago in NBC’s America’s Got Talent. Micah Christian, the lead vocalist (only vocalist as near as I could tell) has a voice you just won’t believe. I think his is what the angels in heaven must sound like. He has an M. Div. and has been a missionary in South America. He works as a teacher. The other three are a cellist, a harpist and pianist. It’s a combination you don’t see everywhere, and as Micah Christian noted, “How often do you see a 6’4” black man playing the harp?” http://www.sonsofserendip.com/bio/ I think they may write a lot of their material, and at least two write for screen plays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oigeYMKv4yQ

Were our parents sour after the Depression and WWII?
"As Mr. Obama leaves office, the national mood is more sour than at anytime since the 1960s. The polls say some two-thirds of the voters think the country is on the “wrong track,” and a majority say they expect their children to do less well financially than they did. This reflects the historically slow economic recovery and incomes that have only recently begun to return to where they were when the recession ended." Wall Street Journal
This quote from today's paper gave me pause. I thought about my parents and their generation. I wouldn't say they were happy go lucky, but they weren't sour on their future or their children's. President Roosevelt had extended the Great Depression probably 5 years more than necessary than if he'd just settled in and done nothing. The war was devastating with my father, his brothers, and cousins all serving and my mother's brother being killed in China. But of all the emotions that come to mind, "sour" isn't one of them. Obama's personal numbers still seem high, but everything he's pushed on us from Obamacare to ISIS to bathrooms has left people more dispirited and distrustful of government.

Which is more "Moral?"
Crudity v. Corrupt

Arrogant v. Criminal...
Bombastic v. Dishonest
Egotistical v. Angry
Pompous v. Phoney
These are important points to think about since this is a very unusual campaign with candidates neither party seems to really like. 68% say they don't trust Hillary, and ROR (regular old Republicans) are sharpening their knives for Trump instead of Hillary because he threatens their power.

Republican politicians are digging their own graves
If our Republican elected officials who are refusing to support the people's choice (after pledging they would), how long do they think they'll have any influence when Democrats marginalize them or completely boot them out? What are their plans to rebuild the party since they didn't support the Tea Party elected politicians who helped them win back Congress in 2010 and now won't support the Trump voters? And how many of these "conservative" talking heads who make the rounds of the TV news and opinion shows for a nice salary will have a job if there is no viewpoint for them to represent?
Sex vs. Gender
There are certain biological malformations at birth that can cause some confusion about sex, but there's no evidence that sex can be changed with surgery, hormones and a president who's being held hostage by an aggressive movement to confuse people. These changes were being developed in 2012 by regulatory staff, around the time that President Obama did his flip on marriage, not your elected officials. There's also no evidence that a simple, single stall or family restroom can't accommodate anyone who wants privacy, no matter how she expresses her discomfort and desire to use that assigned to a different sex.
It was regulatory bureaucrats who changed the word sex in title IX and VII to gender. This could destroy women's sports. The Courts have interpreted Title VII's prohibition against sex discrimination to mean discrimination against men because they are men and women because they are women. It was people with an agenda within government agencies that conjured up "gender identity." Gender is for grammar; sex is for biology. Don't get snowed by language.

Will ISIS claim this?
Last night, there was a mass stabbing attack in London’s Russell Square where a Somali teenager with a Norwegian passport murdered a 60-year-old American woman and injured five others. ISIS hasn't claimed it yet, but they sure get unhappy when the pope or president claims Islam is a religion of peace.

"Environmental activists and state government officials, declining to comply with subpoenas by House Republicans probing their "coordinated efforts" to punish climate change skeptics, face additional scrutiny as part of the congressional investigation."
The Senate’s most liberal Democrats are demanding that 22 national and state-based think tanks disclose their donors. Destroying the first amendment word by word.

LEADING FROM HIS BEHIND by Michael Ramirez
Speaking of being unfit to be President.... It was bad enough that this President has already released terrorists and planners of terrorism from Gitmo for purely political reasons, endangering innocents, while he is putting more American boots on the ground. Now, President Obama has jeopardized the lives of Americans by giving $400 million in untraceable cash to Iranian sponsors of terrorism. Worse, he is allowing Iran to develop nuclear weapons while ...at the same time, they are acquiring and developing three stage rocket technology, creating a nuclear arms race in a region with loads of cash, surrogates of evil, a thriving black market and increasing radical extremism and very little respect for life.
It is unconscionable. The world is a far more dangerous place because of a President who defines being unfit for office.
Using the IRS to take Americans out of an election cycle for 2 1/2 years, arming drug cartels with weapons, lying to the American public, illegal amnesties, importing the unvetted, continuing imperial, unlawful and unconstitutional behavior, endangering troops abroad and citizens at home... One could make a pretty good case for impeachment if there were Republicans with the will to use their constitutional authority and Democrats with a little virtue and integrity, and the willingness to put country before their political party.
It seemed appropriate to resurrect this cartoon from January.

They are all progressives and authoritarians
"If you value classical liberalism/conservatism, you have to be very uncomfortable with the choices you are faced with this year - there are no good ones. Here are my personal rankings in order of unacceptability:
1. None of the below/not voting: guarantees you have to live with some other idiot's choice - and idiots do vote...early and often.
2. Jill Stein: full-on red diaper doper baby, Bernie Sanders with a vagina and a bad attitude (but a much better haircut).
3. Hillary Clinton: crony socialist corruptocratic criminal machine politician - should be rocking a jail cell instead of a five star hotel room right now.
4. Gary Johnson: Liberalitarian statist pothead - possibly high right now, dude.
5. Donald Trump: crony capitalist influence peddler - has Tourettes and possible brain damage from his Studio 54 days
Folks, they are all progressives and authoritarians of some degree. There is not a single "smaller government" candidate among them. I know many will say "Trump will eliminate many departments!" but if you listen to his proposals and what he claims to want to do, there will be a need for just as many, if not more, government agencies to administer his "policies."
Mike Pence is Trump's conservative "beard" (the Urban Dictionary defines a "beard" as "Any opposite sex escort taken to an event in an effort to give a homosexual person the appearance of being out on a date with a person of the opposite sex"). Many have bought it but this Trump guy is just as progressive as Bill Clinton.
What a shame it is that the most acceptable candidate for classical liberals/conservatives must be chosen because he is the least unacceptable - but to do otherwise will make for a much bigger disaster for America." Michael Smith
Yes, Mike, what a shame.

LBGTQ holding Democrats hostage or the other way around?
Besides destroying marriage, women's sports and integrating bathrooms, what does the LGBTQ movement want (besides the obvious--power and money through donations and corporate sponsorship)? Well, the first amendment will be the target. Speech, religion, press and assembly. For 2% of the population Democrats will sell out the other 98%. But even that 2% isn't the problem--Marxism is, and it's any route that works, even sex. http://dailysignal.com/2016/07/31/a-look-inside-4-important-goals-of-the-lgbt-movement/
On Obama's $400 million bounty for Iran
I was listening to ABC this morning--because it's antenna TV at our lake home, that's the "choice." After 3 seconds on Obama's payoff bounty ($400,000,000 cash) to Iran, it was on to a monologue about Trump saying something stupid.
"Democrats proudly own the channels and their journalists openly toast Hillary. If anyone imagines a Republican -- any Republican -- can possibly withstand the 24-7 anti- Republican blizzard both from the media and a sitting president, Hollywood types, and teachers & professors, he/she is tragically naive. Despite the facts of Obamacare imploding, Obama's bombing in Libya & Afghanistan, the invasion of our borders, the poor and minorities getting poorer, 1% GDP -- leftist media now and forevermore will cut the Republican nominee to ribbons with nonstop negative rants." (Sylvia Lustig Bennion)

John McCain's anti-Trump article at Weekly Standard
These are selected comments for John McCain on his non-support of Trump at the Weekly Standard (voice in the Never Trump movement) that appeared on Facebook. I looked through for support--but needed to get out for my walk and didn't want to miss the sunrise. Even those like me who don't like Trump have been disgusted with the "party faithful," and McCain represents that hostility.
“Thank you for your service and sacrifice for this nation, Senator McCain. We are forever grateful. Now, it's time to retire. You, Romney, Ryan, Boehner, etc. only have yourselves to blame for the rise of Trump. Had you done what all of you were elected to do instead of falling in lock step with the President over the last 8 years we wouldn't even be having this discussion. Instead you chose to go along to get along and look where it's gotten us.”

“That's fine [McCain‘s remarks on Khan], but sad that it was politicized in the first place. Now, how about the DNC and comments about Ms Patti Smith and attacks on her regarding her son and Benghazi? Let's be consistent.”
“Radical Islam killed Capt Khan not Mr Trump! The 1st thing the constitution calls for is to provide for the common defense-----Mr Trump will do that. Your candidate Weekly Substandard, Hillary will not.”
“So the Khan family thinks Trump would never let them immigrate, so we are supposed to hate him for something he hasn't done. But we are supposed to vote for Hillary who called the families of slain victims in Benghazi liars for repeating what Hillary told them about their sons being killed because of a movie. She had the nerve to call these people who lost their loved ones, liars. That trumps Trump. Hillary is the lowest of low.”

Did Trump take the bait? Khizr M. Khan's story
The EB-5 investor visa program enables foreigners who make an investment in a U.S. business to obtain a green card and become lawful permanent residents, and eventual citizens, of the United States. I think this means they legally buy their green card instead of hiring a coyote to cross the southern border.
"The father of a Muslim-American soldier killed in Iraq who is caught up in a war of words with Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is an immigration lawyer who specializes in a highly controversial program accused of letting immigrants buy their way into the U.S.
Khizr M. Khan's website notes that he works to help clients with the E-2 and EB-5 programs that let overseas investors buy into U.S. companies and also provides green cards for family members." (Washington Examiner)
Khan's website is down or has been removed. I'm shocked. They baited Trump on this one, but perhaps he can turn the tables.

More photos of Melania
Who knew Democrats were so prudish? They blush at a naked Melania, but not a dismembered naked baby that could live outside the womb.
I would never hold a Democrat responsible for what their party did 150 years ago creating a terror group called the KKK. I do hold them responsible for killing and making it a righteous act more black babies in 4 days than the deaths of blacks in 80 years of lynching.
Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner signed Senate Bill 1564 forcing Christian doctors and pregnancy centers to promote abortion. Abortion is now the official state-preferred choice for Illinois women in unexpected pregnancies, after Gov. Bruce Rauner signed Senate Bill 1564 into law Friday afternoon. He held veto power but went against his own party. http://www.lifenews.com/2016/08/01/illinois-gov-signs-bill-bill-forcing-christian-doctors-and-pregnancy-centers-to-promote-abortion/
Dr. Peter Kreeft once quipped in his book Jesus Shock, “Abortion is the Antichrist’s demonic parody of the Eucharist. That is why it uses the same holy words, ‘This is my body,’ with the blasphemously opposite meaning.”

Does election fraud matter? ID is minor compared to hacking e-mails
The DNC hack revealed election fraud according so some sources, but Democrats have been telling us for decades that election fraud doesn't really exist so why do we need Voter ID? Now we find out that the DNC itself engaged in targeted voter suppression, registration tampering, illegal voter purges, and more. But look! Trump is a fraud!

"Recently unearthed documents reveal that the FBI knew the IRS was unfairly targeting groups because of their conservative politics two years before Congress even heard about the agency’s misconduct. The revelation has already added fodder to the conservative case to impeach the current IRS Commissioner John Koskinen." Judicial Watch

Very disappointing. I doubt that anyone really trusts the IRS, but we expect the FBI to do better.

$50 million vs. $19,000
According to Wall St. Journal, hedge fund managers (the Clinton’s son-in-law is one, I believe) have contributed almost $50 million to Clinton’s campaign, but only $19,000 to Trump. Could be perfectly innocent reasons for this—we always knew Clinton would be the candidate (coat tails, it’s her turn, etc.) And now we know the DNC rigged the primaries against Bernie. Oh, and did you see his new sports car after he endorsed Hillary? So they’ve had more time to flood her campaign with wish lists for regulations and special favors. They haven’t been that sure about who the Republicans would choose until the close of the primaries. Also, since Trump isn’t a politician, they don’t know if he’ll play footsy with the big money interests (he’s not big money, despite his wealth). But it could mean they know who can be bought because they’ve done it before.
The editors of National Review: "She is an opportunist without anything resembling a conviction with the exception of her unwavering commitment to abortion, a “public servant” who along with her husband grew vastly wealthy exploiting her political connections and renting access to everybody from Goldman Sachs to Vladimir Putin, a petty, grasping, vindictive, meretricious time-server whose incompetence and dishonesty have been proved everywhere from Little Rock to Benghazi."
