With all the political junk going on today my head feels like it's going to explode; it feels so stuffed up. My wife says it' s from me breathing in burnt lead and gunpowder from being on the shooting range for three hours today. Maybe she's right, so no politics today, but I've just got to address a certain issue about us "old folks".
OK, I'm a crossword puzzle freak. What's 15 letters, two words for "stupid waste of money". Give up? The answer: COSMETIC SURGERY.
I don't know all the stats, but Americans outspend almost all countries COMBINED on lotions, creams, diet pills, and cosmetic surgery. Why is it that all TV commercials and magazine ads that "promise" smooth skin, everlasting love, and a weight loss of 30 pounds in two weeks if you just "sign up" for some great product, are always shown by some 20-year old gorgeous beauty or a six-pak abs 20-year old Chippendale's man?
I'm 78 years "young", and have accepted that I'll never have a 32" waistline again, and I have wrinkles and sags, and while I'm not fat at all, I could stand to lose a few pounds.
I have a saying today, "the two main people I want to make happy are my wife and my Doctor".
I get a physical every year, and my Doctor tells me my heart, lungs, and blood are fine. I get the dreaded colonoscopy every five years. I certainly don't get second looks when I go anywhere. After a career wearing shirts, ties, and suit coats, today if the weather's warm I'm usually in shorts; weather chilly and I'm in a Carhart and jeans.
To me, it seems that Americans today are subtlety broadcasting that they dislike senior citizens so much that they will spend not millions, but BILLIONS, every year just to have someone say, "gee you look great...you look so young". And why? Just to look younger? So, I guess I'm a bad person because not only do I not only do I look old, I am freakin' old!
My wife and I have friends, and even a few family members that have gone the "better beauty through chemistry" approach. We know someone who complains about the high finances of today, and how rough it is with price increases, but magically found $3,500. for eyelid surgery.
We have another friend that years ago got a breast augmentation before the soft silicones were affordable to her. Today, she's 70, and when I hug her I feel she's gonna break a rib or two of mine.
There was a TV actress that was drop-dead gorgeous and her series was cancelled, so I didn't see her a lot on TV. Last week she was a guest on a TV show. Honest, she looked like a chipmunk with her puffy cheeks. I think she had a gallon of Botox injected in her cheeks.
Now, I go to the gym every other day, but if I spend thousands on Botox, face lifts, and nose correction do I think I'm going to successfully hit on a woman 30 or 40 years younger than me?
Do older people realize how comical they look with all those Botox and other skin lifts, and then think they belong with the younger crowd? Puulleease!
Here's a news flash for everyone: No matter what you do, no matter how many Botox injections you get, no matter how many face-lifts you endure there is one outstanding fact, you will grow old, and you're gonna die someday.I didn't make that up people, God told me so.
I almost gag when people say, " well, I'm getting all this work done, because it makes me feel good". Today, we have medical problems with diabetes, heart failures, COPD, Alzheimer's, etc., and instead of money for those dire issues, we spend billions to look younger. I say, if you want to make yourself feel good, then bend or kneel down and help those less fortunate than you. Yeah, I know it's private money, and you can do what you want with your own money, but if you can only feel good about yourself if you do something for yourself then you are one vain person.
But the truth is if someone is going to make a comment about you because you have a wrinkle, sag, or slightly larger waistline then they're not worth your time, and if someone judges you because you have a sag or wrinkle, then they're definitely not worth your time.
Here's another news flash: What's wrong with growing old? It's something we all have in common. The human body ages. Everyday, when my shower is done, and I push the curtain back and see the guy in the mirror I get the real clear message that I'm old. And so what?
So folks, you can spend all the millions, no BILLIONS you want, and it will not knock off one hour of your approaching birthday. Enjoy life...grow old...love your family...quit worrying about the wrinkles and sags. There aren't enough plastic surgeons around to cover all the wrinkles and sags in my 78-year old body.
And by the way, if I want an extra scoop of ice cream or piece of pie I'm going for it.
And that's NO Politics with Pete for today...God bless us old wrinkled saggy people

I pray it never happens, but
Now, I'm going to write this now, and write it again before I sign off, so that no one misunderstands my point. I pray to the Almighty that we will never see the likes of the KKK or groups like the Arian Brotherhood ever again in our country.
But I do want to make a point about our media, the NAACP, and other left-wing liberal groups. Everyone knows the senseless Black on White crimes that have emerged since the jury verdict surrounding the George Zimmerman trial.
There have been so many senseless Black on White crimes since the Zimmerman trial, and still the Obama slave media refuses to cover any of these stories. A young Australian was gunned down out of boredom, a 13-month old was shot in the face for a few dollars robbery, an 88-year old war vet was beaten to death with flashlights, a young girl was killed just for her bicycle, a 26-year old was beaten and killed by Black thugs while his girlfriend was forced to watch; You don't want me to go on do you? There are many stories like this happening right now.
Now, have you heard the latest? There is a gang of Black thugs that actually do "random beatings" of Whites. They drive through the city, see a White person that they outnumber, stop and beat them, for no apparent reason than to "just beat up on Whitey".
And while this is going on every day we have the likes of the evil race hustler Al Sharpton urging Blacks to "fight" for their entitlements. However, never has Al Sharpton and the rest of the slave media ever addressed the huge surge of Black on White crimes. Recently the NAACP wanted, and still insist, that criminal charges be brought against the rodeo clown that mimicked Obama. Remember the movie Hollywood made about the assassination of G.W. Bush? Short memory eh Al?
Obama's slave media refuses to cover any of the Black on White crimes. Obama went so far as to tell the country if he had a son he'd look like Trayvon Martin. Which one of the three teen-agers that, out of boredom, shot and killed a 23-year old would look like Barack?
Here's my point, and as I wrote earlier, I pray it never happens. But what if our country suddenly experienced a resurgence of the KKK and the Arian Brotherhood, and crimes of White on Black began to take place? Do you think Obama's slave media would cover these stories? Do you think Eric Holder and the DHS would send out troops to put a stop to those senseless crimes?
You can bet the evil likes of Al Sharpton would be screaming about the injustice of White on Black crimes. MSNBC would be leading every program with stories of the resurgence of the KKK or Arian Brotherhood and their White on Black crimes.
Today, Obama's slave media will not even cover Black on Black crimes that are of epidemic proportions in the streets of Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, Cleveland, and even D.C., let alone the horrific Black on White crimes.
As I'm typing this I'm watching the M.L. King Jr. tribute on TV. I've watched countless African-Americn civic leaders address the crowd. Their topics range from freedom, equality, rights for all, etc. I have discovered a common thread among all these African-American civic leaders; victimization. It's certainly not the fault of the African-American community that things are the way they are.
Not one of the speakers addressed crimes of the Black community; crimes of Black on Black; crimes of Black on White. People like Al Sharpton, Ben Jealous of the NAACP, and even Barack Obama have done more to widen the chasm between the races of this country than ever before.
Why are there no talks about Black teen-age births, why are there no talks about the lack of educations, why are there no talks about the upsurge of crimes in the Black community. It seems so easy to make yourself a victim in today's society, but the truth is the greatest helping hand you'll ever find is at the end of your arm.
I pray that our great country will never, ever see the likes of the KKK or the Arian Brotherhood again, but isn't it time for the African-American community to work hard to help the African-American community.
And that's Politics with Pete for today...God bless our country...and our troops.

Now you know why
My roots are here in Northeast Ohio. Grew up here, and at 18 I joined the U.S. Air Force. After serving four years in the military, and with the enormous high grade of C-, I enrolled, under the G.I. Bill at a State university.
Took me a while to finish, and boy was I consistent. I finished school with a GPA of a whopping C- average. Brilliant wasn't I?
In 1968 I was offered a great job in Southern California, so my then-wife and three toddler daughters, one in diapers, relocated to the great golden state of sunny California.
Coming from snowy Northeast Ohio to beautiful and year-round sunny weather I thought I'd arrived in heaven. Oh yeah, and add to that the economy in 1968 was doing fantastic. My recollection is unemployment was around 4%.
The housing market was unbelievable. You could drape a sheet over two sticks and sell it for $100,000, and then three months later you could sell it for $300,000, or in many cases, refinance your home and "pull out" equity money, for anything you wanted. Oh, life was good.
I would phone my family and friends back in Ohio, especially during the winter months, and brag about the gorgeous California living with the world's greatest weather.
In 1968 I purchased a home in southern California for $26,000. In 1972 I sold that very same home for $42,000. I purchased a home for $49,750. Remember that price. I'll get to it later.
In 1973 a young 37-year old named Jerry Brown was elected Governor of California. He was so far out there with his whacko antics he attained the nickname of "Moonbeam" Brown. His girlfriend was Linda Ronstadt the singer. He wouldn't live in the Governor's mansion, and rode his bike around the streets of Sacramento.
Businesses were flourishing; people were moving into California at an unbelievable pace. Life was so good that no one really paid attention to "Moonbeam" Brown, and his far out policies because the economy, jobs, and the housing market was skyrocketing out of sight.
In fact, no one really cared too much about Hispanics "sneaking" across the border. Californians had the hidden mentality that projected "hey, let them come over here and pick the strawberries and do our yard work...we're doing so good we don't have time for that stuff".
"Moonbeam" Brown left office in 1983, but Californians were still living the good life. I must admit, I was right there in the middle of it all, soaking it up. In a Democrat controlled House and Senate Congressman Barney Frank and Senator Chris Dodd passed a housing bill allowing "affordable" homes to all, especially the minorities. The Dodd-Frank bill allowed Fanny-Mae, Freddie Mac to fund homes for just about everyone with a pulse, even if they couldn't truly afford it. Their Constitutional rights said they were entitled it under the Dodd-Frank housing program.
These mortgages were then sold to banks and other lending institutions. And still the housing market was soaring. Remember that home I purchased in 1972 for $49,750? You may not believe me, but I have proof that my ex-wife later sold that very same house for $680,000
At the same time my daughter purchased a home for $375,000, and in less than two months it was appraised at $500,000. My other daughter purchased a home for $565,000, and two years later it was appraised at $920,000.
Then, the economy could not sustain this outrageous, unbelievable skyrocketing surge. Soon the gigantic housing market bubble burst, but more in California than anywhere else. People, that should not have been granted the mortgages they applied for could not sustain their mortgage obligations.
Banks and lending institutions began calling in their mortgage debts, with forecloses to follow. Housing property values plummeted so fast that many homeowners found their mortgage debt was actually higher than the appraised value of their home.
Of course this had a gigantic negative effect on employment, jobs, and the overall economy. Citizens of California and many businesses began relocating to states with better tax advantages and employment opportunities. California began to economically "sink", and soon the good life in California was gone, and this great golden state became famous for only its great weather and not much more.
In 1999, while back in Northeast Ohio for a class reunion I met a classmate I've known since the 7th. grade. She was a widow, and after two dates I fell in love. Eleven months later we married and I moved back to the area where I had grown up. At first the teasing was coming from both Ohio and California on why I would leave the beautiful sunny California for snow-laden Northeast Ohio. I said it thirteen years ago, and I still say it today: "other than great weather what else does California have to offer"? Gee, I don't get teased too much anymore.
Today, California is just about broke. Several cities are about to file bankruptcy, not being able to even meet their monthly government payroll. Lately, however California suffered their worst setback.
In the most recent California gubernatorial race Californians had an opportunity to elect a successful businesswoman, Meg Whitman, who had a proven business track record as CEO of Hewlett-Packard. Her opponent? Back on the scene emerged "Moonbeam" Brown for his attempt at a second term as California's Governor.
Ms. Whitman campaigned on returning California to prosperity by creating jobs to stimulate the California economy. "Moonbeam" campaigned on promises to the minorities of free education, free healthcare, and a tax increase to the wealthy. Guess who won?
Today, the state of California is getting exactly what it voted for and exactly what it deserves.
The beautiful golden sunny state is economically sinking faster every day, from which they may never recover, but hey the weather is sure great there.
And that's Politics with Pete for today...God bless our country...and our troops

Race? Race? Race?
Until King Hitler Jr. became a resident of our White House the word race wasn't used in the context that it is so widely used today.
Now, I'm not dumb enough to think that the word "race" isn't used in context that people like Al Sharpton use it. But today's blog is to reflect the overwhelming context that the word "race" has been used since this man King Hitler Jr. has been in our White House.
Remember when the word race was mostly used as in, "race to the end zone", or "the track star's race to the finish line", or "the race for the championships in today's athletic world", or even "the political race heating up in the campaigns".
There are so many contexts that the word "race" is better served to use instead of the word "race" being used for a wedge between African-Americans, Hispanics, and Caucasians.
In November, 2008 the majority of American voters strongly believed that a bi-racial man could move into our White House and begin to solve racial problems, especially those that existed between African-Americans and Caucasians. Of course we must also remember that King Hitler Jr. is half-Caucasian.
However, and this is certainly a gigantic HOWEVER, since King Hitler Jr. has been in our White House there has never been a division between African-Americans and Caucasians as there are today. Emerging today are stories of the gigantic chasm between these two races. It is more prevalent now than it has ever been. Some have even said it is worse and more violent now than even before the great Civil War.
Maybe the saddest issue today is we have so many evil-doers misusing our First Amendment rights to incite riots between Blacks and Whites. And leading the hateful riot-based speech-making is the evil Al Sharpton from MSNBC.
To help remedy the rising racial conflicts that exist in our country today, MSNBC would do well to eliminate Al Sharpton from their broadcasts and not allow him a platform to preach his racial rhetoric. His racial speeches serve no purpose except to reach out to young Black criminal thugs and urge them to "rise up, stand up, and fight against those that oppress the freedoms of the African-American". We are now experiencing more Black on White horrific crimes than ever before.
At one time TV journalist Glenn Beck called King Hitler Jr. a racist, and was heavily chastised by many. There are many stories and facts to reflect that the man living in our White House now is indeed a racist against Caucasians, and even against most Americans. I now consider the man in our White House is in truth a racist.
The latest news may be the most outrageous evidence that this man in our White House shows what a racist he is. Today, right now as I'm typing this there is an individual within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), whose function is to procure guns and ammunition for the DHS. He is being paid with American taxpayers' dollars.
By itself, it doesn't seem to be too newsworthy. However, did you know that this individual also writes a blog where he is urging Blacks to prepar for a civil war against Whites. Now wouldn't it make sense to remove this man from the DHS? Oh no that would be considered racist, and Sharpton would be right there screaming about this evil man's first amendment rights.
We have the leader of the free world living in our White House that is not doing a thing to advance and cure tension among races here in our own country. In fact, with Hitler Jr.'s slave media it is now understood that nearly the entire media labels anyone that speaks out against Hitler Jr.'s policies is considered a racist.
This man, along with his slave media, and with the likes of Al Sharpton have caused more dire race relations than ever before. He is also causing races and ethnic groups around the world to show ultimate disrespect for our great country.
Americans that want to resolve the horrid race issue our country is enduring now must take the first step next November. We must take our Senate back and retain our House.
Once this is done, we can take our first step to impeach this racist president.
And that's Politics with Pete for today...God Bless our country...and our troops

Where was this in 1958?
I am so freakin' mad. To know that I've had a job since my first paper route at the age of eleven. Then as a stock boy in two grocery stores. Then I delivered food orders for a delicatessen. Then I graduated from high school, went to work in the steel mills for eight months, and then enlisted in the U.A. Air Force.
Then college under the G.I. Bill of Rights after I was discharged, and on to work, work, work, till I retired. Today my wife and I live on Social Security, a monthly insurance annuity, and a stock program.
Now, at the age of 78 I'm being told I did it all wrong. Now they tell me I could have lived very well by doing absolutely nothing. Why, in heaven's name did I bust my hump all those years?
Today, in 35 states a person can get unemployment, food stamps, medicaid, subsidized housing, even free cell phones that calculates to approximately $38,000. per year. Statistics now show that this FREE $38,000. is actually higher than average entry-level employment of $21,000. per year. Now, I ask you, why would you go out and try to get a job?
And the good news for King Hitler Jr. is that as long as he keeps handing out these benefits he will be the Pied Piper of the entitlement class. He and his Democrat leaders actually have these people believing they are "entitled" to their nanny state on the backs of hard working taxpayers.
I just want to know where was all this in January, 1958 when I was discharged from the U.S. Air Force at the age of 22, and became a freshman in a state university. I got married, got a job, and had to finish college in night school. Gee, where was King Hitler Jr.'s plan then?
And then to know I could've received even more from welfare because my wife and I had two daughters back then. Then a few years after college another daughter came along. Man, I could've been living like a king with all these "entitled" benefits.
Just last week the news anchors were exploiting a 29-year old beach bum in California for living the good life, surfing every day, while not having a job. This 29-year old "surfin' dude" keept telling the news anchors, "why work man...got my food stamps....got all I need thanks to taxpayers". Everyone is angry at this "beach bum"....me, I'm jealous. Where was all this in January, 1958?
TV was showing this 29-year old buying lobster with his food stamps, strumming his guitar on the beach with pretty young ladies; having a great time...all thanks to us taxpayers. Didn't seem it was that many years ago that I was bragging to a friend over a beer after being promoted to salary that "I was now at $1,058.00 a month". Wow, I had arrived! But to think I could've received all this free from the government.
Of course I'm being sarcastic. My education and hard work has enabled my wife and I to live a decent life financially in our 70's. What is the 29-year old going to do when the nanny state of entitlements run out of money? You can bet he'll be part of that riot crowd "demanding" his entitlements. I can see him now throwing chairs through the windows of hard working, taxpaying, small business shops, while screaming, "this isn't fair...where's my money...I'm entitled".
Then, all together we can say: Welcome to the United States of Greece.
But we can take the first step to stop this next November, 2014.
And that's Politics with Pete for today...God bless our country...and our troops.
Then college under the G.I. Bill of Rights after I was discharged, and on to work, work, work, till I retired. Today my wife and I live on Social Security, a monthly insurance annuity, and a stock program.
Now, at the age of 78 I'm being told I did it all wrong. Now they tell me I could have lived very well by doing absolutely nothing. Why, in heaven's name did I bust my hump all those years?
Today, in 35 states a person can get unemployment, food stamps, medicaid, subsidized housing, even free cell phones that calculates to approximately $38,000. per year. Statistics now show that this FREE $38,000. is actually higher than average entry-level employment of $21,000. per year. Now, I ask you, why would you go out and try to get a job?

My wife is mad at me!
It all started at a wedding reception dinner this week. The hostess arranged the seating before dinner. I sat across from my lovely wife, and was seated between two young unmarried gentlemen. After about five minutes I discovered both of these gentlemen were strong firearms advocates.
Of course there were the occasional bride/groom toasts and some family speeches, and my adoring smiles at the most beautiful woman in the room; my wife.
Soon my new gun advocate friends and I delved into "gun talk". My .357 carry revolver was locked in the car, so all I had to drink was ginger-ale all evening. We talked about every firearm, ammo, and reloading supplies on the market.
I was bragging that even my wife carries a snub-nosed five-shot .38 in her purse. I began talking that I was looking for a good .22 magnum for my wife, amid all the glares I was getting from my wife.
On the way home my wife started in; "why do you tell everyone, especially people you just met that you and I carry a firearm? It's nobody's business that we carry firearms".
Of course I began spouting off why I disagree starting with, "not only do I want everyone to know that I am legally licensed to carry a firearm, I also believe that there should be a lanyard around the neck of legal licensed gun carriers, so everyone would know 'that person you may think of assaulting is legally carrying a firearm'. Sure might stop a lot of crime".
For example, the number one city in gun crime is Chicago, which happens to be in a state where it is illegal to carry a firearm. Does anyone really believe that the thug criminals that use guns for their crimes care about some law?
Oh, I was on a roll now. I continued, shouting back at my wife, knowing I was sleeping on the couch that night, "so a couple of hoodlums want to rob a 7-11 in Chicago, but before they go into the store they see a sign that says, 'STORE OWNER LICENSED TO CARRY A FIREARM FOR PROTECTION OF HIS PROPERTY'...do ya think they might consider not trying to rob the 7-11"?
Even with that unspoken look of hers that silently said, "you wanna try for two nights on the couch", I continued, "how come all of the people that want to take away firearms from us law abiding citizens refuse to relinquish the firearms of the body guards that protect them"?
King Hitler Jr., Oprah, Rosie O'Donnell, and many other liberal progressives that are in favor of gun control, and want to take away our Second Amendment rights are the same people that have numerous armed body guards surrounding them and their families. Are the president's family more precious than my own family? Not to me.
King Hitler Jr. has been named firearm and ammunition salesman of the year. In fact, the NRA want to make him an honorary member. Did he really think he could take on the NRA or the Second Amendment loving citizens of this great country? I don't think so!
Since this radical Islamic Muslim Brotherhood member tried to take away our Second Amendment rights actual sales of firearms and ammunition has skyrocketed to a record breaking pace, and it is still rising.
The largest and greatest military force this country has ever known are its Second Amendment law abiding citizens. I pray that all I ever point at and shoot is a target, but my founding fathers have promised me "the right to bear arms".
By the way, this is my last night on the couch. You think I'd learn.
And that's Politics with Pete for today....God bless our country...and our troops.

Hate to say it....but
If there was ever an opportune time for another Fox News "fair & balanced" network it is right now folks...immediately. There is certainly enough room on the TV and radio networks to report the daily news objectively to America.
In radio, all we have is the great El Rushbo, Rush Limbaugh. Have you noticed that over the years numerous liberal progressive radio stations, like "Air America" with Franken and Maddow tried to report the news with a strong liberal bias, but they have all failed. Rush continues to be the number one TV news- talk show in America today.
I really hate to say (write) it but the poor American people are really uninformed. They are so uniformed that everything spoken by King Hitler Jr., or reported by ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC is totally and completely believed by an overwhelming majority of American people, even though in most cases their spoken word and their reported word is completely false.
The main problem is the TV networks are overridden with liberal progressive networks and broadcasters. Every time Barack Hussein Obama, aka, Barry Soetero, aka King Hitler Jr. stands in front of his infamous teleprompters and speaks he is heavily supported by ABC, CBS, NBC. CNN, and MSNBC. These networks are jammed with the likes of Letterman, Sharpton, Matthews, Maddow, Bashir, McDonnel, Brian Williams, and so many others. They are nothing more than slaves to Hitler Jr.
The liberal progressive left-leaning journalists with the support of Hitler Jr.'s adoring Hollywood types consistently preach the word of their beloved leader King Hitler Jr., and they just assume we will believe them because they have deemed their words to be the truth.
A great example is just recently King Hitler Jr. gave another of his Obamacare speeches to a large group where he proclaimed, "the Republicans in Congress just attack my health care plan, but haven't submitted a plan of their own". This is an out and out blatant lie, however, who is going to call him on it? No one of course, except Fox News TV and radio's Rush Limbaugh.
The truth is that including an alternative health care plan, the House of Representatives have introduced many bill proposals. However, the Senate, led by Harry Reid, will not even bring any House bill proposals to the Senate floor for a vote.
King Hitler Jr. continues to overtly lie, and mislead to the American people about Benghazi, the IRS scandal, the DOJ lying about Fast & Furious, the DOJ spying, and the NSA surveillance spying.
But the Hitler Jr. regime and his slave media are just laughing at most of us Americans, saying, "so what....what are you gonna do about it"? Americans are being told only what King Hitler Jr. tells his slave what to say to the people.
There is a very strong reason I feel justified in referring to the man in our White House as King Hitler Jr. I am reminded by an Austrian woman in her 90's explaining the Nazi take-over by Adolph Hitler in the 1930's. He didn't take over Austria with tanks and guns. He was a smooth talker with outrageous promises to a failing people. Adolph Hitler won his first political race in Austria with an overwhelming 89% approval rating. We all know what happened next.
This King Hitler Jr. in our White House now is doing the same exact thing to the good people of this great country. He continues to trample on our U.S. Constitution, with no respect to what our founding fathers laid out in the Constitution. If he wants something done and Congress says no, then he just exercises his executive authority and gets it done, whether it's legal or not.
This man, King Hitler Jr., sat on Jay Leno's couch a few days ago and proclaimed to America that the NSA was not spying on Americans. Since then it has been proven that thousands upon thousands of times the NSA, has in fact, and is continuing, to spy on Americans.
Why does this continue? It's very simple, and again I hate to say (write) this, but there are so many uninformed people in our country. Having barely getting out of college with a C- average, I certainly can't cast a judgement on people. However, our uninformed populus get the majority of their information from ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC, so they're inclined to believe whatever the slave media speaks is the truth.
The uninformed also believe the Hollywood mogul types must be telling the truth because we adore our movie and TV sitcom stars. I mean, who wouldn't believe what comes out of the mouths of Joy Behar, Whoopi, Ba-Ba Wa-Wa, and my favorite progressive liberal racist, Oprah Winfrey.
All of the news being aired on MSNBC by the leg tingle man Christ Matthews must be true and factual right? These people will only report the news they want you to hear and see, and for the most part their news are full of lies, and continue to be the slave trade for Hitler Jr.
As I wrote earlier, now, more than ever our radio and TV need more stations like Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. We need our information to be objective for Americans, and we can take our first step towards this next November, 2014 in the mid-term elections.
And that's Politics with Pete for today...God bless our country...and our troops
