How could they do that with the "smarter, more enlightened" folks like you standing by?. You are way too intellectually superior to let that happen. ( you know, sort of like Peter Strzok and Lisa Page were too smart for everyone else also)

VESO- Can you tell me why Fox New is #1?

Still intellectually unable to respond to either of the last two questions?

Here is another question I am sure you wont answer but I will try anyway. Speaking of "relatively quiet" can you tell me why you weren't screaming and yelling when the Fed deficit increased 34% in 2016? It's obvious that you are "very concerned" about the deficit. However, I guess you practice "selective budget deficit concerns" which is somewhat less than "enlightened".

I asked you a question that you STILL will NOT answer.

I have asked this before with no response so I am not expecting anything substantive but will try anyway. Do you feel as though the President has been in office long enough to have achieved a balanced budget?

Do you mean those folks who will actually answer a question when one is posed to them?

I would like to invite all of you to join me in wishing Melania Trump a happy birthday today. Many thanks in advance.

. The biggest news this morning is that initial claims for unemployment dropped below 200,000 for the first time since Americans were still basking in the afterglow of Neil Armstrong's 1969 moon landing Combined with the huge reduction in food stamp usage, seems like things are going "swimmingly"

It's ok for him because he "cares"

And it would likely be greater if the MSM hadn't been harping on collusion 20 times a day every day.

But even a board packed with Ph.D. economists does not guarantee a good record when it comes to economic forecasting. Such a board definitely did not see the Great Recession happening. At its meeting at the end of October 2007, the members forecast growth of 1.8% to 2.5% in 2008 and 2.5% in both 2009 and 2010. They also projected that the unemployment rate would never rise above 5% through 2010. In fact, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the recession began that December and lasted through June 2009. Economic growth was a negative 2.8% in 2008 and just 0.2% in 2009. The unemployment rate climbed to 10%. The Fed's forecast ability wasn't any better during the recovery. At the end of 2010, its projection was for 3.3% growth in 2011 accelerating to 4% in both 2012 and 2013. It was too high for 2011 by 1.7 points and too high for the next two years by an average of 2 percentage points. At the end of 2012, it forecast 2.7% growth for 2013 followed by an acceleration to 3.25% and then 3.4%. it came close for 2013 but missed the next two years by an average of a full point. At the end of 2013, it forecast an average of 3% growth over the next three years, we got 2.3%. Then, for the Trump presidency the errors went in the opposite direction. In December 2016, the Fed projected 2.1% growth for 2017 and we got 2.5%. In December 2017, it projected 2.5% growth for 2018 and we got 3.1%. (GDP figures measure from fourth quarter of the previous year to the fourth quarter of the following year.)

IN the hearings today with the CEOs of the leading U.S. Banks, Mrs. Waters queried each banker about what actions they were going to take in regard to the student loan issue. Each banker promptly announced that they had been out of the student loan business for a number of years with one saying they stopped when the Federal Government took over the programs in 2010. This woman is the Chairman of the committee. Simply amazing

This approval rating is higher than that of his predecessor at the same point in time

The total number of border apprehensions year to date are very close to the total for all of last year in this "manufactured crisis"

Are you talking about how VSEO and you are treated or Mr. Trump? Seems like you have no problems with all the phony accusations and insults hurled his way every minute of every day.. In fact, that makes this place look like heaven relatively speaking. But let me guess, that is different, right?

They are moving forward from Mueller to Trumps Tax Returns and of course, the old reliable, "he is racist"

Have a nice life.

Then why invade that bubble? Why not let we ignorant unenlightened pawns go about our business? After all, isn't it your party that screams for tolerance, mutual respect, and civility?

Yes and confirmation that departures are not unique to any administration. Of course, it is if you have TDS.

Don't you think that the fact that the dems-repubs can't come to any sort of agreement is a much larger "invitation" and indicates more instability than changing the dept head?

Since you claim to be a big basketball guy, let me give you an analogy. Doc Rivers, of the LA Clippers has traded three All Star Players ( Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and DeAndre Jordan) while at the helm. He got no big name players in return. The Clippers are having one of their best years in recent history. Does this mean " He's either 1) doing a terrible job of picking players or 2) a terrible boss"?

Maybe she couldnt go to a restaurant for a meal without a group of righties attacking her
