He has been very badly hurt by all those mean and nasty people. Like the Muslim family who lost a son to war and dared to criticize him and John McCain who got captured when everyone knows getting captured doesn't make you a hero and immigrants who are bad people and rapists or is that Mexicans, and all Muslims and all Mexicans and everyone who has ever said an unkind word about him since he was born. He has suffered more than anyone else in the history of the world. Why are some people so mean to him? Why can't they understand that all his insults mean nothing? His words mean nothing. Just lockeroom talk. Boys will be boys. He never DID anything like Bill Clinton did. He said all those words and people are holding him to them and are offended by them. How dare they?. Whom do they think they are anyway? He is the one who has been wronged. He has never ever wronged... less

Didn't Barnum say there is a sucker born every minute? Does Trump think so too? Does Trump make suckers out of those with whom he deals? What's the connection between PT and DT?

Can anyone boast of having done such a momentous thing or is it only Trump, all Trump, just Trump, forever Trump who could have pulled it off? if America survives him (if he doesn't go gunning for the country and those who didn't vote for hin and take us out too) will Trump be a subject in history classes? How he brought the Grand Old Party to its knees in one election cycle? His name will go down in history for far more than his branded structures. DA MAN WHAT AM! Who could have made up a story like that? less

Can he withstand the humiliation of being rejected by influential members of his party? Who is left to save him of any political consequence? Those who haven't cut all ties yet are very tentative and could do so at any time. Trump has said he can do everything by himself. He doesn't need anyone. Can he? How?

Keep focusing on the irrelevant past so you can let Hillary stomp you on election day. Maybe you should grow up, stop acting like a child, and tell us all the things you PROMISE to do without mentioning Bill or Hillary again. Can you do that or are you truly out of control and obsessed/possessed? How does what Bill did or didn't do have anything to do with you or what you plan to do for we the people? Why do you continue to deflect/redirect rather than moving on and laying out YOUR credentials, YOUR plans, YOUR promises? Unless you have none. less

Not with a bang but a whimper.I have miles to go before I sleep and promi8ses to keep. Trump is still ranting and raving about Bill Clinton. Has he transferred his bromance from Putin to Bill? Secret man-crush?
It would be completely objective. It would choose the best possible action absent political partisanship and human subjectivity/prejudice. What could it hurt? What do we have to lose?

It will be able to "read" all papers that come out and digest the info and can be used as a source for doctorswho are diagnosing. Something like 8000 papers a day are released on the subject. Doctors cannot possibly keep up with the literature. They often don't know about the newest advances because they didn't have the time to read about it. What do you think of Watson?

I Saw how German prisoners are treated and it looks like they are on vacation at a high-class resort. Seriously. Anyone else see "60 Minutes" on Sunday? The difference between how American imprisoned folks are treated and those in Germany is staggeringly unbelievable. Do you think their way is better? Our way isn't working.

Try to make our lives meaningful by participating and leaving good tracks behind as we keep trying to make things better, help one another. If all we do is worship God and wait for the day He will take us up to be with Him isn't that a life wasted? If we do nothing for our fellow man and are only devout to our religion and remain detached and removed from the process of living how did we make a difference in the world? What do we leave behind that was of any value? Shouldn't we aspire to do good works and be a positive influence for good? less

On her way to work one morningDown the path along side the lakeA tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snakeHis pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew"Poor thing," she cried, "I'll take you in and I'll take care of you""Take me in tender womanTake me in, for heaven's sakeTake me in, tender woman," sighed the snakeShe wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silkAnd laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived She found that pretty snake she'd taken to had been revived"Take me in, tender woman Take me in, for heaven's sakeTake me in, tender woman," sighed the snakeShe clutched him to her bosom, "You're so beautiful," she cried"But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died"She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight Instead of saying thanks, the snake gave her a vicious bite"Take me in, tender woman Take me in, for heaven's sakeTake me in, tender woman," sighed ... less
