Bipartisanship far from evident at McCain services
Not only has Hollywood used the death of Sen. John McCain to cast aspersions on Donald Trump, but his funeral has been politicized. Speakers at the memorial service are using his death to promote globalism, open borders and socialist policies, as well as to make personal attacks on our commander-in-chief. That the strategies of obstructionism, identity politics, political correctness and villainizing those with different views should be found in the farewell proceedings of a national hero is shameful and appalling to anyone with a sense of decency. The liberal icons speak of bipartisanship and then attack everything that constitutional conservatism stands for and what the American people choose as a way of life to make their country a better place for their children. Certainly a man who served his country so well in the military and in public office deserved far better.

Trump rally staff sided with hyperbole over thought
The participants at Donald Trump’s rally in Montana on September 6th were told to ”to cheer and look as energized as possible.” A “guy in a plaid shirt” seemed to question the exaggerated “hyperbole” of Trump at the rally. There was no shouting, or suggestions of violence. The “guy in the plaid shirt” merely raised his eyebrows and asked his friend if something was true. He was predictably asked to leave. It seems that thinking through Trump’s bluster should be beyond the capacity of guys in plaid shirts. To honor “the guy in the plaid shirt” (Tyler Linfesty), I propose that Saturday, September 22nd, 2018 be declared “Plaid Shirt Day.” A plaid shirt should be worn as a reminder for everyone to register to vote. If you don’t vote, you can’t complain. The last day to register to vote (in Georgia) is October 9th. Wear your plaid with pride.
