Well his 4 years are up. How satisfied were you with his tenure? Looking back, what would you say were his biggest accomplishments? And his biggest failures? Off the top of my head... AccomplishmentsAppointed constitutional judges who proved themselves to be nonpartisan whether we liked the outcome or now as opposed to the liberal hacks Obama appointed Improved the economy especially before they used the WuFlu to destroy it and him Removed and simplified regulations to improve the economy and bring the vaccine to production faster than anyone thought he could. Made the left and media (I repeat myself) expose themselves Forced our "allies" to pay more of their share of expenses Mideast peace deals getting Muslim countries to work and trade with Israel No new wars and pulled our troops out of never ending wars Improved trade deals and got us out of TPP China policy though poking China is probably what caused his failures because China's allies attacked him at every turn Wall Energy independence which Biden will promptly destroy Followed the constitution and sent a lot of things back to Congress to be decided where it should be for them to only fall flat on their faces. FailuresDidn't secure the elections Struggled to get his message out and to refute the lies Not enough Wall Drowned by the swamp as everyone turned on him at every opportunity to save their grift. Never found the right people to surround himself with to enact his policy. Not enough done in first 2 years because of RINOs in the Senate. Didn't open health care up to the free market and didn't resolve anything in regards to health insurance (though this and immigration should have been a Legislative accomplishment) Well it was a fun 4 years. But I don’t think he’ll be getting that airport named after him like he wanted. |

Simple question: Every news source I see is describing the protests in DC yesterday as violent. And yet, except for the actions by police (the woman shot and tear gas) I can't find anywhere a specific description of violent acts by the protesters. Not saying it didn't happen, but it seems really odd to me that all the news stories are repeating the "violen protests" without giving any examples. Over-running barriers is hooliganism but it's not violence. Am I just missing the articles? Can someone point me? Last summer fires were set, police cars were fipped, stores were looted, rocks were thrown, people were killed and this was mostly called "non-violent" by the press. So you'd expect that yesterday must have matched that and then some. What actual violence occurred. Anyone? My pretty unbiased take, I believe, from footage I saw: There was a lot of peaceful protesting that is being now ignored because of these actions I didn't see anything on fire. Guns were confiscated that were not permitted, but the only shooting Ive heard of was a protester getting shot by security/police. Explosive devices were apparently found and detonated safely by bomb squad. Windows were broken, doors kicked in, and general vandalism. The VP and Congress were evacuated in time, along with the ballots, so nobody was hurt in that regard, and no ballots destroyed. I did see congressional laptops left behind - I only wonder how much sensitive info may have been exposed there, but we know our leaders dont know shit about security. I did see footage of some protesters making physical contact with cops/security, trying to push their way through. The security forces seemed quite restrained. And undermanned. Is that "violence"? I would say more like dissent and chaos. If people are going to be ok with businesses getting burned, then what happened yesterday is small potatoes. So yes, in comparison, I would say the stuff over the summer was much worse, and on a much larger scale. Let's face it, this is all about location. If this was anywhere else I don't think many people would give a shit. The US Capitol was breached. The actual physical damage was minor in the scheme of things but the hugely symbolic damage goes way deeper. It's visual proof of what's going on in our country. And people's bias will be confirmed. Minds aren't being changed on either side. Sad day all around for average Americans that just want to go to work and be left alone to live their lives. We are failing big time and I don't see it betting better. |

14 officers were injured. Maybe they tripped running away, not sure. That's not really an answer is it? Again, where are the details? You don't think it's strange that every article describes the protest as violent yet none of them describe said violence? I'd say it's a little early to get all the details, no? And I don't think "violence" mean only bodily hard. Maybe your definition differs. Window smashing, barricade tossing, etc. are all on video and would fall under the violence category rather than the peaceful protest category. |

She’s alive! Tanya Roberts death has been greatly exaggerated, because her rep now says she's alive, despite the rep not only telling TMZ she died, but sending out a press release with that information. You're really on top of this situation! Very fluid situation at this time....stay tuned! |

She was the second worst of Charlie's Angels, after Shelly Hack. Wouldn’t that be before Shelly Hack? |

Perfect voice. she's a total sweetheart, one of those people always happy and smiling. she was the lead in an off-broadway play back then, i was so proud of her. just one of those people you meet in your life that you remember forever. and can you imagine being my secretary? lol what a fucking angel! Did you do her? |
