Right on, Wiggy! And here's to tater tots and pop tarts, which in moderation, are just fine.

I agree with the notion that culture is a much bigger problem than race for sure.

Interesting that at least there are two of us who think similarly on the "racism" issue.

Funny! They are apoplectic.

Yes, Trump is like taking a couple of Tums. I think some Pepto-Bismol might work better, but maybe we'll get 'some' relief... At the very least we are no longer being forced to ingest Chipotle produce.

Agreed. I do worry that Trump may end up being a Pragmatist-In-Chief though... Certainly better than what we have had for the last 8 years, but a little worrisome none the less.

Hello unitedlc,
When the world is right, looters and moochers should feel a bit of hopelessness, while producers feel a bit of relief. The day when she and her husband are footnotes I no longer must listen to can not come too soon.

O.A.

Yes. I believe the actual racism in the general population we had in this country mostly died in the 1970's.Because it is such a lucrative business, however, reverse racism started in that era to replace the "war" for civil rights that had been won. The left makes a LOT of money shaking down people and businesses and causing everyone to feel as miserable as they are.

Obama had a golden opportunity to heal the guilt a surprising number of whites who wore the hair shirts and those that were made to feel guilty for 40 years. However, that is too much to ask of a person of the left. The old adage, "misery loves company" comes into play and describes the left to a "T". But, you can also consider the "divide and conquer" adage as part of their strategy.

"what do you give your kids if you can’t give them hope?"

How about the opportunity to learn self-reliance, grit, a robust sense of identity powered by themselves, and the confidence in their abilities to know they can manage their own life without someone else telling them and "protecting" them from reality?

Very funny, I was just going down the list responding to some of the posts and ran across yours after I wrote this above- https://www.galtsgulchonline.com/post...

The race problem in this country is all but insignificant. What we have is a culture problem. Other than the extraordinarily few scumbag supremacists, white's don't dislike a person because of skin color. They dislike people because of a culture that doesn't reconcile with civility and freedom.

A person of color becoming president should have been able to all but squash racism in this country by bringing the country together. I remember thinking when he first got elected that, regardless of my not voting for him, maybe just maybe he could help the racial divide once and for all. The divisiveness of this president's rhetoric and policy makes Trump's sometimes ridiculous remarks look tame.

Yes.
They have many mental midgets.

On OUR tax dime. Nothing worse than smug mooching elitists....

Yeah, that's one of things that has irritated me the most about these smug people in the White House now. In the last 8 years I have taken 4 vacations, only 1 of which required an airplane to get there. Two reasons- I can't afford the vacations because of vicious taxation, and the business I own can't afford me to miss the time. I would love to know how many dozens of vacations this moocher in chief has taken on MY TAX DOLLARS.

"It's the Most Wonderful Time In Eight Years" for me personally. I am loving that Michelle feels what it's like to lose.....Get over it! These people just left Washington on Friday for another vacation in Hawaii...I am SO glad they are leaving the Whitehouse. People take a vacation after they have actually worked at something...and in my humble opinion they have not WORKED for eight years!

I am sure they can find a reliable one to play the part...

All we need is a little person to yell -- "De plane, de plane!"

Term2 - Very interesting take on the issue. Many thanks for your insight.

True racism is nearly dead in the USA. What is not dead is what I can "culturism". I like some cultures and dislike others- and I don't mind at all having those preferences. The entitled culture is one I don't like at all. It's very rampant among blacks, 2nd generation hispanics, and to a lesser degree in white people in the USA The liberals call me racist, but I could care less about skin color or genetic background.

After this election I wish all Hillary supporters would wear an H on their clothes so I could more easily know who I wanted nothing to do with.

I think they should move to Venezuela and spread their hope there- with no subsidies from us taxpayers

They are both entitled blacks from the ghetto

Give them Obamacare

I am feeling more hope now that trump won. Hopelessness would have been the result of a win by Hillary !!!

I'm feeling pretty good for the first time in a long time about a President , As of January we will be Dope-less.

What Mooshell really meant by hopelessness is waiting by the phone for party invitations that no longer come from Clooney, Streisand, and the rest of the Hollywood a##kissers who pandered to Dear Leader and his Queen for the last hateful eight.
