Going the wrong way
Kevin, I know I will never convince you not to vote for Hillary. You have a gene factor in your DNA I call the Democrat lemming gene, uphold Dem Policy while diving over the cliff with your statements.
I am only going to say this one more time, the FBI conducts criminal investigations, period! As stated by the FBI on TV “we do not investigate security matters, we investigate criminal matters.” The FBI was the lead investigator in Watergate then gave it to a Grand Jury for an indictment, (then prosecution by the DOJ,) a process written in law. So don’t tell me I have my facts wrong, because you are the one that is wrong! How you can ignore the fact that when the four Benghazi bodies arrived at Dover AFB, Hillary went over to the families and told them we are going to jail the person responsible for the video that caused these deaths, (as attested to by all four families on TV), when there is an email to her daughter and other people stating it was a terrorist attack, You do a disservice to the readers by trying to be a Clinton apologist and ignoring the facts. Hillary has a “pattern of behavior” that includes lie after lie. If any Republican candidate had a litany like this I would point it out in a heart beat and not vote for him/her. But you sir will argue with a signpost and go the wrong way. This will be my last letter to you because anything more would be useless! Hillary Clinton’s checkered past brings as many questions to mind as does the OJ Simpson Trial.
We are in debt $19 trillion and you on the left want to spend more, sheer insanity, but what is the pits you want to drag us down with you. I call that insanity! The interest payment on the debt is approaching $1 trillion a year. Simply unsustainable and we are on the board to accrue a debt of $29 trillion in 10 more years which will bankrupt this country.
Do you recall the President referring to the Benghazi incident as “a bump in the road?”
Here’s an excerpt from poem written by an anonymous Marine Corps officer :
“We gave our all for our Uncle Sam,
But Barack and Hillary didn’t give a damn.
Just two dead Seals who carried the load
No thanks to us…we were just “Bumps In The Road.”
And Kevin, you, Hillary and this Administration still don’t give a damn. It’s all about the Democrat Party. Circle the wagons at all costs and that’s wrong.
When in the history of the USA did we not send help to troops in peril like Benghazi? Thanks to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama (because he was not being Presidential at the time, where was he? Anybody?)
My take is he went to bed! What a Leader! Prove me wrong.

Opening eyes
I would bet a fact-based study of what data exists on any particular political issue would open the eyes of many folks who may think the answer would be quite different. I believe Hillary’s stand on having stronger gun ownership laws has cost her more then a few votes these past few weeks. Her stand is something for which I admire her very much and one that is greatly needed to reduce the harm that we have to hear about each passing day.
I bet that a fact-based study on the difference between those parties who own guns and those who never have owned a gun would show those who own guns are more involved in violent deaths and injuries by the use of guns than those who do not own guns. I say this as having owned a gun most of my own life. I have thoroughly enjoyed hunting and it is not that activity that concerns me, but the use of ALL weapons that were developed to kill our fellow man. Those weapons with huge magazines hold more bullets than any game animal would stay around to have fired at them.
Back in the ‘50s if some fool showed up with one of the killing machines like an AK47, etc., he would not find many folks who would hunt with him, due to it not being very sportsmanlike, but also because he’d be suspected of having some form of brain damage. Another fact for that era was the use of a rifle or shotgun was the norm. Pistol ownership was far rarer, and seen mostly by law enforcement personnel and cowboys on the silver screen.
Happy Trails to You!

A real problem
There’s been tons of information in the “letters” column about politics. Various opinions, all of them for the most part very interesting. I have just one question for all those illustrious candidates and your readers. Why haven’t any of them addressed the Social Security problem? As a senior citizen, we haven’t been given our COLA for 2 years now, but the politicians in Washington, D.C. Have voted themselves substantial increases in their wages behind closed doors.
As a citizen, and all of you other citizens of any age; aren’t you curious about this? It pertains to anyone of wage earning age. It’s your future. It’s common knowledge that our illustrious politicians have robbed the Social Security account for years with no intention of paying any of it back.
Personally, any of these contenders who don’t address this problem with a solution does not have my vote. Many of them want to abolish S.S. Is this their reasoning for not mentioning it in their campaigns? I am very curious about this and am emailing them asking them about it. So far I have no replies.
