This is what I'm using from now on when I want to "like"….![yes yes](https://cdn.ckeditor.com/4.5.5/full-all/plugins/smiley/images/thumbs_up.png)
Turns out United States Senators can oversee governmental operations and release reports about stuff:
Doing productive work in the US Senate, what a concept!!!!!
Yowzaa!
We are all socialists now….![](https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/12644786_10154554629318327_1384287286885323422_n.jpg?oh=9d8059184cb5d7f61e1daf5c62ef07d3&oe=57402876)
Obviously not a Bush or Trump family.
Grandma is probably the lady with the "Keep your government hands off my Medicare" sign back in 2008.
Interesting. I follow realclear poll averages almost daily and have noticed this too. Still not stellar approval ratings, of course, but interesting that while the GOP paints him as a tyrant because of his taking more (perfectly legal) unilateral actions in the face of congressional inaction in his final days as president Obama's numbers are improving. Not stellar but the opposite of the direction Rs are aiming for going into the next election.

Sadly, "Michelle won't let me run for a 3rd term".
Up to 49% and 50% on some recent polls.
Still holding my mini-boycott of ColPols until Bernie is rightfully placed on the Big Line.
Thank you!
Carry on dust puppy!
Polis has 95% and no challenger!
Come on, Pols, with the Queen of Hearts Rules!
Have to agree with you. He has better numbers than the Rs listed. I can see where the percentage would be low but it's certainly as significant as Rubio's.
I'm with the dustpuppy; Bernie needs to take his rightful place on the Line. Pols, your reasoning that these reflect chances of a win in Colorado don't pass the smell test – Sanders has better numbers in Colorado (average 37%) than Rubio, Trump, or Cruz, and it's a helluva lot closer (Trump +2) for Trump v Sanders, than Trump v Clinton's Trump+11.
Looks like Sanders does better at appealing to Colorado's contrarian Independents than Clinton does.
The N.Y. Times is out with its endorsements this year: HRC for the Dem nod and John Kasich for the GOP nomination. (Good luck with that Kasich endorsement……)
I think John Kasich could beat HRC or Bernie. Lots of middle of the roaders and Dem leaners who don't like HRC and aren't comforrtable with the word "socialist" would have no trouble voting for Kasich instead of either one. He wouldn't be sufficiently scary to minorities to bring them out to vote against him in the high turn out numbers Dems need among those demos. Lucky for Dems Kasich isn't going anywhere on the 2016 GOP crazy train. He'll be standing in the station waving bye bye.
I'm glad the GOP would never do what that "librul rag" tells them to. Kasich is the only Repub that's worth a tinker's dam this year.
Agreed……he's still way too conservative but at least his views are not from another planet like those of his primary opponents. The fact that we are saying positive things about Kasich is reason enough the GOP would never nominate him.
The rank and file are finally being heard. How many more union endorsements of Hillary Clinton will be withdrawn?
Firefighters' Union Backs Away From Endorsement of Hillary Clinton NYT
Hmmmm… My uncle is a retired fireman and his son is a fireman and they and all their friends are strictly Fox 'News" righties anyway.
Good lord, man — that story's four months old.
Sorry, not impressed, or concerned.
Liz Cheney is off and running again. This time for the at-large U.S. House seat from Wyoming which her daddy once held. With the exception of her vacation house she tried to pass off as her permanent residence in 2014, she hasn't actually lived in Wyoming in decades. Why should that stop her……….
Why doesn't she just run against Tim Kaine or Mark Warner for one of Virginia's U.S. Senate seats? The GOP needs someone to run and it would be convenient since she lives there.
I wonder if she's kept her in-state fishing license current in the Cowboy State since her ill-fated U.S. Senate bid fizzled. And have she and sister Mary made up over her flip-flop on same sex marriage?
A pathetic attempt to remain relevant.
If only it were that simple.
You think being simple is easy ?!? …
Bernie lays it on the line – great response to the stupid question, but if you can watch Bernie's entire response, watch it.
It’s been true for years that many progressive proposals are supported by polling majorities. But it is also true that Dems have to support and sell these proposals, that are attacked with lies, hyperbole, and wild predictions of doom on a daily basis. And people like you-know-who are constantly trying to get bipartisan kudos rather than pushing productive solutions.
Bernie continues on congress, while describing many in the CO congressional delegation to a 't':
I doubt anyone we've sent to DC from here the last several years could plausibly deny this sad statement about our political system and those who work within it
Take it away, Bernie……..
this crap commenting system is hampering my 1st Amendment right to free expression. Jesus, Pols, get over the urge to micromanage these comments!
After all the Obama bashing in all the R debates this can't be the direction they're looking for. Obama is now moving into tied or positive territory in a few polls for the first time in ages:
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_obama_job_approval-1044.html
Another small uptick, bringing his RCP polling average up by several points since the first R debates. Not the intended consequence of criticizing everything Obama including getting our people released from prison in Iran and clearing up a potentially serious incident with no American sailor suffering anything more than about a half day comfortable detention. Too bad for them. They were all demanding the prisoners be part of the nuclear negotiation (which they pretty much quietly were) but now are complaining about how terrible negotiating their release was. And they were so looking forward to a long grueling detention of our sailors, hopefully through the end of next year so they could run on Obama allowing our sailors to languish without any carpet bombing. Only had a few hours to demand Obama postone his SOTU and complan when he didn’t when Obama's State Dept made the tragedy go poof. Speaking of, how nice would it have been for Obama to appoint Kerry in the first place instead of HRC. Guess he just want to make sure the Clintons couldn't sart trashing him for a while.
All of which proves diplomacy works a lot better than any of the GOP pols' stupid ideas. Apparently increasing chunks of the public agree. They like getting prisoners and sailors released without bloodshed. Who knew? Certainy not the GOP.
Latest Gallop poll?

Ran out of my five minutes again. Sorry for a few words with missing letters.
We need 10 minutes!
I know. Especially since I don't get the mistakes underlined in red anymore. I have to find them by re-reading, correcting, rereading, correcting and I get in a hurry, the phone rings, etc. and you can't pause your editing time. And I'm a really, really crappy typist. Back in the day I always had someone else type my papers. On the plus side, I'm a pretty good cook.
Gil Fulbright for President…why not?

Gil's "puppet donor" video is hilarious.
The remaining 4 holdouts squatting at Malheur Wildlife Refuge now are blocked from making calls or using the internet. All access roads have checkpoints; nobody gets through if the FBI doesn't want them to. Residents of the area have had it, are psychologically exhausted, and not at all sympathetic to the militants, even if they started out in agreement with some criticisms of the BLM or the Forest Service.
About time. Let's see how long these selfish bullies hold out when their phony martyrdom gets no attention.
Should have cut off power and stopped delivery of mail and care packages a long time ago. It was smart letting them come and go for a while, though. That's clearly how they got so confident nobody was going to touch them that pretty much the entire leadership felt free to take a road trip together and got caught without endangering any innocent bystanders.
