Republicans–Three Strikes and You’re Out
Last updated on: October 4, 2019 at 5:05 pm By Kermit Zarley
In 1968, the Republicans put Tricky Dick in the White House. President Richard Nixon had to resign in 1974 or be impeached due to his many lies and coverup about the stupid Watergate break-in of the Democratic headquarters. In that particular case, the coverup certainly was worse than the crime. During my lifetime, this Nixon affair was Republican strike one. In 1999, the Republicans impeached Democratic President Bill Clinton in the House–but it failed to pass in the Senate–for lying... Read more

Trump Is Right In Saying “Shifty Schiff”
Last updated on: October 4, 2019 at 4:10 pm By Kermit Zarley
Republican President Donald Trump is right in calling Adam Schiff “Shifty Schiff.” Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi last week declared that the Democrats were officially opening an impeachment inquiry into the president as to whether or not he has committed “high crimes and misdemeanors. Due to the Ukraine episode that has recently come to light, she designated Mr. Schiff’s Intelligence Committee to lead the way. So, ADAM SCHIFF HAS SHIFTED INTO HIGH GEAR as chairman of intelligence and is about... Read more

“You Have a Very Great Democracy. Keep It”
Last updated on: October 2, 2019 at 5:30 pm By Kermit Zarley
U.S. President Donald Trump and Finland’s President Sauli Niinistö met today in the White House Oval Office and then held a nationally-televised press conference. Early during Finnish President Sauli Niinistö’s introductory remarks at the conference, he said to Trump, “Mr. President, you have a very great democracy here. Keep it going on.” And Mr. Niinistö said the exact same thing again later on during the conference. It obviously was point he had been prepared to make. While President Niinistö was saying that and right... Read more

Trump’s Record Predicting the Stock Market Ain’t Too Good
Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 11:16 pm By Kermit Zarley
On June 15th this year, as the presidential campaign for next year’s election was about to begin, President Donald Trump tweeted to his 61 million followers, “If anyone but me takes over, there will be a Market Crash the likes of which has not been seen before! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.” More threats from the man who has turned that sacred ground in DC into a Black House. Back on January 27, 2017, only one week after Trump was inaugurated... Read more

Pastor Jeffress Is Being a Foolish Man
Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 2:55 pm By Kermit Zarley
Robert Jeffress is the senior pastor of the 13,000-member First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas. He is prone to making rash, public statements that draw media attention. Jeffress said recently on Fox News, “If the Democrats are successful in removing the President from office (which they will never be), it will cause a Civil War like fracture in this Nation from which our Country will never heal.” President Trump then sent out a tweet on his Twitter account, quoting this...

Trump Belongs in Prison for his Whistleblower Remarks
Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 1:59 pm By Kermit Zarley
U.S. President Donald Trump belongs in prison just because of the remarks he made last week about the “whistleblower.” In case you’ve been camping out in some other planet, and therefore don’t know what’s been going on in this country, a so far unknown employee in the U.S. intelligence community came forth months ago alleging that President Trump phoned Ukraine’s President Zelensky, asked him to cooperate in getting political dirt on the now leading Democratic contender for the presidential election...

Will Texas Go Blue Next Year?
Last updated on: September 29, 2019 at 4:25 pm By Kermit Zarley
Texas politics are formidable. Right now, it’s looking like the main swing state in next year’s presidential election will be Texas. That’s a surprise. Texas has solidly been red, meaning Republican, since the 1990s. But that’s not how it used to be. I know, I lived in Texas for forty years until the end of the 1990s. From hundred years ago until then, Texas was solidly blue, meaning Democratic. It could go back to blue in next year’s election. Last... Read more

Trump Never Cared about Russian Meddling in our Election
Last updated on: September 28, 2019 at 8:13 pm By Kermit Zarley
It has now come to light that U.S. President Donald Trump in the Oval Office told two Russian officials–foreign minister Sergey Lavrov and then ambassador Sergey Kislyak–that he wasn’t “concerned” about Russian meddling in our 2016 election in order to get Trump elected, alleging the U.S. did similar things in the past to other nations. What if Russia had done that to get Hilary Clinton elected? How would Trump have then felt about that? I think this is the most... Read more

Trump Is Right About “Fake News” and a “Witch Hunt”
Last updated on: September 30, 2019 at 11:31 am By Kermit Zarley
U.S. President Donald Trump is right about his constant public use of the terminology “Fake News.” He’s the fake, and the news media is just reporting about it. That’s Fake News. He’s the fake because likely draft dodger poses as such a U.S. patriot. But this week he has been exposed even more as being a guy who doesn’t really believe in our form of government, which is democracy with free and fair elections. He is for subverting free elections... Read more

Champ Strives to Be Champ Again
Last updated on: September 28, 2019 at 7:00 pm By Kermit Zarley
Cameron Champ shot a five-under par 67 today to take a three-stroke lead into the final round tomorrow in the Safeway Open at my old stomping grounds–Silverado Resort and Spa in the rolling hills and luscious wine country of Napa, California. This is where I won my first tournament on the PGA Tour, in 1968. And then I duplicated that achievement at Silverado many years later, in 1994, on the Senior Tour. This early tournament of the new PGA Tour... Read more
