  5. Hi Phil, Then this country will follow engineering down that toilet. Jerry Baumchen Mech Engr, Ret'd
  6. Hi John, The finest college instructor that I ever had, gave up the profession to go into real estate so he could afford to feed his family. IMO our value system in this country needs to change. I mean, who really needs to read the National Enquirer? Jerry Baumchen
  7. Hi folks, And, once again the GOP is living in the Dark ages: This Pennsylvania school board made news for banning books. Voters flipped it : NPR And, with all of the abortion ballot losses, somebody in the GOP should face reality. Jerry Baumchen PS) Only one [ GOP ] candidate was willing to go on the record, Glenn Schloeffel. He said the results were disappointing.
  8. Hi Wendy, Ronald Reagan - I rest my case. Jerry Baumchen
  9. Hi Bill, I mean, look at the disaster that happened when we gave the vote to women. Jerry Baumchen
  10. Hi folks, Hannity: trying to “scare” women voters Hell yes, women are scared. And, that is exactly why they are voting to support the right to an abortion. Sean Hannity: Democrats trying to ‘scare women’ on abortion | The Hill Jerry Baumchen
  11. Hi folks, the GOP has become a “party of losers” . . . a “cancer” exists in the GOP establishment Most of us have known this all along. Ramaswamy: GOP has become ‘party of losers’ | The Hill Jerry Baumchen
  12. Hi folks, Re: “We have to recognize how much voters mistrust us (meaning elected Republicans) on this issue,” he added. Well, it doesn't take a Sherlock to figure that out. JD Vance: Ohio’s abortion vote ‘was a gut punch’ | The Hill The GOP needs a lot of gut punches. Jerry Baumchen
  13. Hi Robert, Just the other day I was thinking about what Trump will blast out with on 6 Nov 2024. It is going to get crazy. Jerry Baumchen
  14. Hi Mark, I bet that once Ivanka faces jail/prison time, she will rat out her father. Rats want to survive just as all species do. Jerry Baumchen
  15. Hi folks, I bet this is one ad that Trump never expected: Central Park Five member takes out full page ad on Trump 34 years after he called for their execution (yahoo.com) And, now that Salaam is going to be on the NYC City Council, one has to wonder on how he might vote on anything Trump has before the council. Exonerated 'Central Park Five' member Yusef Salaam will win seat on NYC Council : NPR How sweet it is. Jerry Baumchen
  16. Hi John, And, both in a truly Trump state. There is hope on the horizon. Jerry Baumchen
  17. Hi folks, Looks to me that the chaos is on-going: One GOP member . . . called the meeting a “train wreck,” while Rep. Drew Ferguson (R-Ga.) described the path forward as “clear as mud.” And, these are the people who are supposed to be leading us? Confusion reigns as House GOP inches toward shutdown deadline - Live Updates - POLITICO As per Betty Davis: “Fasten your seatbelts; we’re in for a bumpy night.” Jerry Baumchen
  18. Hi Ken, While I no longer have it, I still remember boarding behind a radial engine in a brand new white jumpsuit. Multiple washings did get the oil out but the spots never did come out. C'est la vie, Jerry Baumchen
  19. Hi folks, As I continue to say, he is his own worst enemy: Testimony by former president Donald Trump quickly descended into bitter sniping Monday among the judge, Trump’s attorneys and a lawyer for the New York attorney general’s office I guess that he does not understand that this is not a jury trial. I am quite sure that the judge is not one of the 'poorly educated' that love Trump. Trump’s testimony quickly turns to shouting match - POLITICO Jerry Baumchen
  20. Hi Joe, Rumor has it that you have sold one of your Caravans. So, that begs the question: Are you going to replace it with a King Air? Jerry Baumchen
  21. Hi John, Sad, but true. 'I love the uneducated.' Jerry Baumchen PS) For 20+ yrs, I have been saying that the average American voter is uninformed & prefers to stay that way.
  22. Hi folks, Sometimes your actions have consequences: A former Trump administration State Department official has been sentenced to 70 months in prison for joining the violent Jan. 6 mob that pummeled police officers in the Capitol’s Lower West Terrace tunnel. Former Trump State Department official sentenced to 70 months for Jan. 6 assaults - POLITICO I hope he was not counting on that federal pension to take care of him in his old age. Jerry Baumchen
  23. Hi folks, And, Mitch makes the list again: Mitch McConnell warned Senate Democrats on Tuesday about issuing subpoenas . . . to conservative members of the Supreme Court, calling such a move “totally inappropriate.” McConnell tells Senate Democrats to back off on Supreme Court | The Hill Talk about being 2-faced. This, from the guy who refused to even entertain Obama's nominations. Mitch needs to be put out to pasture in some of that Kentucky blue grass. Jerry Baumchen
  24. Hi John, I had not planned on re-writing the tax code for a discussion on here. I am well aware that going to only an income tax would mean changing a lot of how our taxes are collected. Which IMO should be accomplished. And, it is OK to disagree. Jerry Baumchen PS) Your Romney example is just one example of what is wrong with the current tax code. PPS) And, the GOP solution is: House GOP bill would give aid to Israel and cut IRS funding : NPR
  25. Hi Robert, From your link: If Holmberg is convicted, his decades serving the public “will be forgotten about, and only the negative things will be remembered,” Wardner said. Maybe he was expecting a statue in the town square. Jerry Baumchen
