Be careful not to $tep in $hit

 ~ It was reported by a former Russian official that Russia ran a doping operation for their athletes in the 2014 Olympic Games. Are you surprised?

Spectacular athletes draw more revenue. So does the additional drama. It has become a dog and pony show involving hundreds of millions in revenue. No dogs and ponies, no show, no revenue, no way.

  ~ "I think that it is part of our obligation as a society to make sure that everybody is treated fairly, and our kids are all loved, and that they're protected and that their dignity is affirmed." PRESIDENT OBAMA, in defense of his administration's decision to instruct public schools to allow transgender students to use the bathroom that matches their gender identity. NY Times

That’s all well and good Mr. President, but I have 2 questions: 

1. What about the rights, protection, safety, dignity and fairness to the non-transgendered children? 

2. What right do you have to dictate a public bathroom policy promoting and enabling mentally ill children with gender dysphoria.

 ~ The French government has a great idea! Allow divorce by mutual consent, how great is that? Of course, that wouldn't work in America because politicians are lawyers and that would affect the income of their industry, which they may very well have to rejoin if their political goals don't succeed.

 ~ So you’re rich and live abroad and want a green card? The owner of Major League Soccer says if you invest in his stadium, you get annual dividends, 2 season tickets, and green cards for you and your family. How utterly American.

Yes, the American dream is for sale. You got the cash, we can provide the lifestyle. You want justice? We have the best politicians money can buy! Just tell us what you want and you can have it, for a nominal fee of course… 

I'm thankful my grandparents don't have to witness the decline and degradation of America, the one they helped make great.  It would make my grandmother physically ill.
