REPUBLICANS FAIL AGAIN



Two significant things happened Tuesday: (1) House Speaker Paul Ryan had lunch with Obama, and (2) the Republican-controlled House could not muster enough votes to override Obama’s veto of a Congress-passed bill that defunded Planned Parenthood and removed the vast majority of ObamaCare provisions.  The vote was 241 to 186, but a 2/3 majority was required.  The House has 435 members, 246 of which are Republicans. 

COMMENTS:
Everyone in Congress needs to be replaced, regardless of party.  They may squawk different tunes, but they’re all in cahoots with each other and it is we who get the shaft. 
 
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Now Trump is calling the Iowa Caucus a fraud and demanding a “do over.”  What is your opinion?  (Milo ~ Susanville, CA)
A. I agree with him that it was unfair, but that was due to Cruz and not the State of Iowa.  Cruz pulled an absolutely putrid, dirty trick on Carson by saying Carson was dropping out, (which he was not), before the caucus.  Cruz also pulled a dirty trick on everyone else by sending out a mailer under Cruz’s name looking as if people were going to face some penalty if they didn’t attend the caucuses and vote.  I believe there should be some serious penalty for such lies and deceits and because of them, Cruz has moved himself totally out of consideration for me.  Pffft! 

Q. I understand there was a recent study which concludes that cat owners are more neurotic than dog owners?  (Chip ~ Cedar City, UT)
A. That’s the understatement of the year.  Pffft again! 

Q. I read that a McDonald’s customer in Utah was having some dispute over his order and pulled a gun on the employees.  I don’t think that guy should be allowed to own a gun. (Jewell ~ Longmont, CO)
A. I agree with you.  People with anger management issues should be on the list of people with mental problems.  Hmmm… I wonder if Trump carries a gun.
