There is a large forest of other issues that need attention. I've had it with this nonsense.


Now there is a statement, time to fly to the Moon, colonise Mars, play golf, hold rallies and focus on non issues. Please build a wall to keep all this inside america

They had ample reason to turn over every rock possible to try and demonstrate guilt and were unable,.

They DID demonstrate guilt! But they were unable to indict because of DOJ rules. You should try to keep up. Now that Trump is soon to be exposed re obstruction, you want to move on - just like Trump. I get it. Keep Wednesday night open.


The dems whined and whined until the Mueller probe was started

Mueller was appointed by Rod Rosenstein, a Republican.


Now that their hopes have been dashed, they insist on yet more public hearings. It's all stinkin politics.

Sure - as the noose tightens around your boy, Trump, call it stinkin politics and move on. Lol, I get that, too!


I've had it with this nonsense. The dems were not elected to do this.

Of course, they were. It's part of their job to keep an eye on the president, especially when he's a crook.


hopefully not led by your four inept, amateur congresswomen.

Ah, the diversion tactic. If nothing else, you are certainly consistent.

They've been in the news a lot, and there is speculation that they are exerting a great deal of influence in your party. If you don't believe that, ask the Speaker.

That one made me laugh. Your imaginary noose.

I am not a member of the Democratic party. For political party purposes and voting, I am considered an independent. That means I sometimes support issues from the right of center and sometimes from the left, leaving me, on average, in the center.

I am also an independent. I am not a Trump supporter, but I am what I guess you could call a Trump appreciator, referring to some things he has done that have been positive. I would much prefer he keep his mouth closed and have someone close his Twitter account.

Well that's not happening so keep holding your nose.

Well that's not happening so keep holding your nose.

You are right about that. I'll keep holding my nose and being thankful every day that HC is not the pres of the United States. To have as pres someone who thought having an amateur email server in her bathroom was a really good idea would have been a disaster.

Well if you like a guy who talks fear, and hate the dufus is definitely your guy and he was talking against the government long before he took over the repub party. Now he cries when others raise dissenting voices. What hypocrisy, while the guy in the poorest state in the union wants to tell everybody else why they are poor. Dude you're a real hoot.

Because I see it everyday. I worked with those kids for over thirty years. I've seen the problems it causes. I'll put my experience with this problem up against yours or anyone else on this board. I know you don't seem to care. It doesn't fit your political agenda to really, genuinely look at problems and what causes them. It's a lot easier to toss around a few platitudes and say, "Well, we might have historic low black unemployment, but it's still higher than the average," and so try to thrown the whole thing off on, I guess, racism, or to refer to the poorest state in the Union, whatever point that might make. Very easy thing to do, which is why a lot of libs do it, but it solves nothing.

It really irritates me that you cannot get anyone even one ounce interested in trying to solve the greatest social ill of our day. If that 70% figure could be reduced to even 20%, it would be such a great step forward in so many ways, but so few people care. Pitiful.

I know you care, Tal. I don't doubt that. Like I said, it's frustrating. Such a straight-forward problem, but it's hard to find allies.

I'm not frustrated JL, it's just one of those things you keep working at. Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
