A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered Her altitude and
spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican." "I am," replied the man. "How did you know?" "Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much
help to me."
The man smiled and responded, "You must be a Democrat." "I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well," said the man, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that
you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault."

The sad fact is that the devil isn't creating problems. People are. It would be nice it all we had to do is don crosses and wear garlic around our necks to beat the problems we are facing. It's so much easier to believe an outside influence is causing people to kill other people. Unfortunately, that's not true. To truly beat terrorists, you must attack the root cause. You must stop whatever is going on that is driving people to kill other people. The other policy, the last man standing policy of the present administration, isn't too compassionate.

Democrats should be brave and must counter check those in the government. It is the duty of the opposition to regulate the acts of the sitting President.

only if the devil is a Republican.
If it is right and good the liberals denounce it with rhetoric and lies,however if it is perverted(Clinton),immoral and deceitful they embrace it.
