Meghan McCain Slams Joy Behar's Use Of George H.W. Bush To Slam President Trump
Listen, uber-liberal, TDS sufferers like Behar can't go a minute without blaming Trump for something. And while it is crass and distasteful to use the backdrop of memorial services and/or funerals to launch petty political attacks, Megan McCain would be more credible here if she herself hadn't repeatedly attacked Trump during her father's memorial and funeral services.

Meghan McCain: Liberal Scumbag of the Week
Claim to Fame: co-host of "The View" and daughter of late Senator John McCain
Why's She the Liberal Scumbag of the Week: Just when you think that Trump Derangement Syndrome couldn't get any worse, Meghan McCain comes along to prove you wrong. Using her father's own funeral to rebuke President Trump (who wasn't invited) and how worldview, McCain eulogized her dad with a speech that included this statement:
"The America of John McCain is generous and welcoming and bold. She is resourceful and confident and secure. She meets her responsibilities. She speaks quietly because she’s strong. America does not boast because she has no need to. The America of John McCain has no need to be made great again because America was always great.” she said, to applause.Yeah, that's right. Funeral's, which normally serve as a venue to mourn, grieve and/or celebrate a person's life, was instead used by the late Senator's daughter to throw cheap shots at the President. Of course, one would expect this from an anti-Trump (and suddenly pro-McCain) media that hates the President and seems to have conveniently forgotten how much they vilified John McCain when he ran against Barack Obama for President back in 2008. But not the family.
Her speech kicked off with a swipe as well: “We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness, the real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who live lives of comfort and privilege while he suffered and served.”
Guess we can now confirm that Meghan Mccain, even in her grief, was just as petty and bitter as her father was when it comes to Trump. But then, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Dana Bash Had Every Right To Ask About Kellyanne Conway Husband's Tweets Critical of Trump
Yeah, your boss happens to be POTUS and your hubby's out there on social media critizing him left and right? That's something anyone in the press would be interested in.

Tucker Carlson: Where was Jeff Flake when Obama attacked Fox?
Good question. For all the moral superiority Flake and McCain do on Trump's attacks on the media, where were they when Obama (an dhis administration) was attacking FOX day in and day out?

John McCain Reasserts Hatred for President Trump by Coming Out Against Graham-Cassidy Health Care Bill
McCain's 'no' vote on Graham-Cassidy is about nothing more than his pure hatred for President Trump. Consider that his own state governor likes the plan, Graham is a close, personal friend of his, McCain wasn't on Trump's Whip list, he campaigned in 2012 on repealing Obamacare and the fact that for all of McCain's talk of wanting debate, amendments, etc. on a bill, Democrats have shown ZERO interest in working with the GOP on even fixing Obamacare. Someone needs to just present all these facts to McCain and ask him straight to his face, if there was a different President, would he say 'yes' to Graham-Cassidy?

Governor Chris Christie Under Fire for Using Closed New Jersey Beach
Christie is in his last term, has low poll numbers and on his way out anyway...in other words, he doesn't care.

Bill Maher Calls Himself a 'House N*gga' on HBO's 'Real Time With Bill Maher'
And for all his sanctimonious talk about President Trump allegedly accepting 'hate' on the campaign trail last year, when a smug, white liberal uses the n-word to his face, Ben Sasse does nothing but grin. Funny that.

Chris Christie Endorses Donald Trump for President
I don't care about all the mean things Christie said against Trump...while he was competing against him. A non-politician getting a sitting governor to endorse him for POTUS is still huge.

Mitt Romney Demands Donald Trump Release His Tax Returns, Says There’s a ‘Bombshell’ In There
Mediaite.com:
Former GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney called in to Fox host Neil Cavuto‘s show Wednesday afternoon, and speculated that Donald Trump might be deliberately concealing information about his net worth and donation habits from the American voters.
Trump, Romney noted, had done a fine job harnessing people’s anger with a “political class that’s been fiddling and diddling,” leading to gridlock and inaction in Washington, but speculated that there were some as yet unearthed facts from the mogul’s past that could come back to haunt him — specifically, he said, he believed that “there’s a bombshell in Donad Trump’s taxes.”
I think there is something there. Either he is not anywhere near as wealthy as he says he is or he hasn’t been paying the kind of taxes we would expect him to pay or perhaps he hasn’t been giving money to the vets or the disable like he has been telling us he’s been doing. The reason I think there is a bombshell in there is because every time he is asked about his taxes he dodges and delays and says well we’re working on it.The release of Romney’s own tax returns were a contentious issue in 2012, he noted, and but it was important to be transparent so voters could make an informed decision.
After Harry Reid pulled a similar stunt on him back in 2012, you'd think mitt would know better. Then too, Mitt had his chance in both 2008 and 2012, can't he just stay away?

Donald Trump Claims He Won't Attend Thursday Night FOX Debate
WaPo.com:
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump abruptly announced here Tuesday that he would not participate in Thursday’s scheduled debate, escalating his off-and-on feud with Fox News Channel and throwing the GOP campaign into turmoil.
Trump’s assertion, which his campaign manager insisted was irreversible, came less than one week before the kickoff Iowa caucuses. He once again defied the conventional rules of politics, and used his power and prominence to shape the campaign agenda and conversation.
So far, Trump’s untraditional moves have only expanded his support, but his threatened boycott leaves him open to criticism that for all his tough talk he is ducking face-to-face confrontations with his opponents and scrutiny from the Fox moderators.Given Trump’s past flirtations with boycotting Fox, many will doubt his declaration until they see the other candidates take the debate stage on Thursday night without him.
The Republican debates have become must-see television, in part because of the allure of Trump’s star power and unpredictable candidacy. But he said Tuesday that he thinks Fox and other television networks have been taking advantage of him by selling advertisements for their debates at a high premium.
Corny as it sounds, there is still an argument to be said for how Trump expects to be president when he can't even take on the likes of Megyn Kelly. Then too, a no-show is not only hypocritical, but a slap in the face to Iowans by and large.

Georgia Mom’s ‘Breathe Fire’ Response to Anna Duggar Goes Viral
Mediaite.com:
In the wake of Josh Duggar‘s renewed troubles when his infidelity was exposed along with his Ashley Madison profile, his wife Anna has reportedly been facing pressure from both sides of her family regarding whether to stay with him.Unless you're a wife/mother who's been cheated on, you can't possibly walk in her shoes. But the public shame alone of being married to such a scumbag, hypocrite and rapist will hopefully get Anna Duggar to eventually think about what's best for her and her kids and do the right thing, get a lawyer, divorce that a-hole and take him for everything's he got.
When the story first broke, Jessica Kirkland unleashed a fiery statement about the Duggar wife’s situation, which has attained viral status over the last five days.
Kirkland began her post by pointing out how Anna Duggar was “crippled” by her parents for not pursuing education and following their expectations, only to end up “shackled to this loser because his family was famous in their religious circle.” She went on to say that Duggar’s problem poses a lose-lose situation for her, seeing as she would be ostracized if she sought divorce, but that her religious views bind her to the anguish caused by Josh Duggar’s cheating:
What is Anna Duggar supposed to do? She can’t divorce because the religious environment she was brought up would blame her and ostracize her for it. Even if she would risk that, she has no education and no work experience to fall back on, so how does she support her kids? From where could she summon the ability to turn her back on everything she ever held to be sacred and safe? Her beliefs, the very thing she would turn to for comfort in this kind of crisis, are the VERY REASON she is in this predicament in the first place. How can she reconcile this? Her parents have utterly, utterly failed her.Kirkland also emphasized that her post was not meant to be an attack on religion, but rather, a call for the media to give attention to Anna Duggar’s predicament, and a call to women to empower their daughters:
ADVERTISEMENTWE MUST DO BETTER BY OUR DAUGHTERS. Boys, men, are born with power. Girls have to command it for themselves. They aren’t given it. They assume it and take it. But you have to teach them to do it, that they can do it. We HAVE to teach our daughters that they are not beholden to men like this.Kirkland concluded by saying that Josh Duggar ought to be “cowering in fear” of his wife, and wishing that someone empowered Anna with such resolve. “As for my girls,” Kirkland said, “I’ll raise them to think they breathe fire.”

Josh Duggar Confesses to Cheating, ‘Porn Addiction': ‘I Have Been the Biggest Hypocrite Ever’
Mediaite.com:
Three months after 19 Kids and Counting reality show star Josh Duggar admitted to sexually molesting several young girls, including his own sisters, he became the first big celebrity name to be outed in the hack of Ashley Madison, a website that helps married people find sex partners.What a sick, depraved, despicable and disgraceful man. Not only should his poor wife divorce him immediately and take him for all he's got, but Mike Huckabee needs to come out, admit that he got conned by this fool and disown Josh Duggar asap. The Duggar parents will take plenty of hits for their son being an a-hole, but one bad seed doesn't make them bad parents and hopefully another TV network will eventually pick up their excellent show...minus Josh.
Duggar, who was forced to resign from his position at the Family Research Council, has released a statement on his family’s website in which he confesses to infidelity, porn addiction and more.
Read the full statement below: ADVERTISEMENT
I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have secretly over the last several years been viewing pornography on the internet and this became a secret addiction and I became unfaithful to my wife.I am so ashamed of the double life that I have been living and am grieved for the hurt, pain and disgrace my sin has caused my wife and family, and most of all Jesus and all those who profess faith in Him.I brought hurt and a reproach to my family, close friends and the fans of our show with my actions that happened when I was 14-15 years old, and now I have re-broken their trust.The last few years, while publicly stating I was fighting against immorality in our country, I was hiding my own personal failings.As I am learning the hard way, we have the freedom to choose to our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. I deeply regret all hurt I have caused so many by being such a bad example.I humbly ask for your forgiveness. Please pray for my precious wife Anna and our family during this time.Josh DuggarAbove Josh Duggar’s statement on the website, he parents, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar wrote that their “hearts were broken” when they first heard about their son’s connection to Ashley Madison. “As we continue to place our trust in God we ask for your prayers for Josh, Anna, our grandchildren and our entire family,” they added.
For years, Josh Duggar made public speeches against LGBT Americans, arguing that the gay “lifestyle” is harmful to children and families. His family has endorsed Mike Huckabee for president and following the molestation scandal the candidate stood by Duggar, saying, “Good people make mistakes.”

What The Right Is Getting Wrong About "Black Lives Matter"
NewsRadio1067.com:
Imagine you are black.Imagine you’re black, you’re an American, you love your country and you’re not particularly political.Maybe you vote in presidential years, you probably felt proud when President Obama took office, but you’re not a hard-core Democrat or liberal. You’re an American who happens to be black.You see a news story about an unarmed guy getting shot by a cop. The guy is black and the cop is white. Part of you says “I wonder if this is racist” but part says “Hey, I’m no dummy—there’s a crime problem in my community. I’m going to keep an open mind.”A few weeks later there’s another shooting with the same elements: Unarmed black guy, white cop. Within five days, there are THREE such cases, part of a string of these stories. In Atlanta, a police officer kills a black, unarmed, naked Air Force veteran. Unarmed…and NAKED? Where did the cop think he was hiding a weapon?Once again, you’re an American and you get that cops have a tough job and that the black crime rate is a problem. But c’mob—even Martin Luther King, Jr would be struggling to show a charitable spirit at this point. It looks to you like there’s at least evidence—some would say overwhelming evidence--of a problem with the way your fellow black men are treated by police.But being an open-minded, “consider-all-sides” sort, you decide to check out conservative, Republican media for their take on the story: Talk radio, Fox News, the blogs. And here is what you find:THE COPS DID NOTHING WRONG! THE PROBLEM IS BLACK PEOPLE COMMITTING CRIME!! EVERY ONE OF THESE DEAD PEOPLE GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED!If you think I’m exaggerating….Conservatives—forget your statistics for a moment. Set aside your pro-cop bias for just a moment, no matter how justified. Just ask yourself how you would feel if you were a black American watching “conservative America” response to the deaths of unarmed citizens—CITIZENS— at the hands of law enforcement.Is there any “I see your point,” or “yes, this is disturbing?” Or is it a non-stop screed agains the current state of black America? Is it “Hey, we’re small-government conservatives and we’re worried anytime citizens suffer at the hands of government,” or is it “Either do what the government tells you do, or you’re gonna get shot!?”Imagine you’re a black American listening to the same conservatives who never seem to shut up about fearing tyranny and the overreach of government and “pry it from my cold, dead fingers” but who suddenly embrace government agents literally killing unarmed citizens—when those citizens are black. How would you feel? How should you feel?I happen to think there’s a real problem with law enforcement in America. From the militarization of police forces to unnecessary (and sometimes deadly) no-knock raids to the use of cops as revenue creators for court systems. I also believe that black males get treated by cops in ways that none of my fellow Tea Partiers would put up with for a minute.You may completely disagree with me on that issue. And that’s fine. But have you thought about what conservatives sound like to black Americans when they refer to unarmed black citizens killed by government agents as “rabid animals,” etc?At best, it sounds like conservatives could care less how many black people die at the hands of cops. At the worst, it sounds like conservatives are cheering the cops on.Even if you honestly believe that the police should always be trusted and that they never misbehave (an astonishingly non-conservative attitude, by the way), surely you can see why black citizens of good will would have legitimate concerns. And surely you can see how callous many conservatives must sound as they offer their rabid, foamy-mouthed defense of the police and/or attacks on the protesters. Can’t you?Why can’t—let me re-phrase that—why WOULDN’T small-government conservatives be leading the movement to discuss law enforcement reform? Why wouldn’t we be at least as full-throated in our criticism of bad cops as we are in our cheers for the many good ones?If I were a black American listening objectively observing my conservative neighbors, I'd assume that they don’t give a damn about me.My question for conservatives is how are we going to prove this is wrong?Assuming that it is.
