Good. Then there is hope for you.
All this anger, hate, use of pejoratives, are bad for your health. In fact, wasn't it you just a week or so ago who was complaining of ill health due to some form of mis-emotion of some kind? Could it be all that anger over political issues that caused you all that distress?
I sincerely hope that is not the case and that all will be well for you. Be of good cheer and keep smiling.

Obama sin laden bans baby Jesus from the White House, saying. "I am signing this order as an act of tolerance and peace towards globalized unity. Symbols like the nativity or a manger are divisive during a holiday season shared by many different walks of faith. Our White House in inclusive to them all. To make others feel welcome, we will no longer have Jesus in the manger on White House grounds." LOL. What a load of horse puckey. Tolerance towards Christians by removing the meaning of Christmas from Christmas celebrations? The man is clearly delusional at best, or just plain insane. Meanwhile:

Obama was seen storming away from the West Wing after staffers from Donald Trump's transition team began preparing the Executive offices for the new administration... removing all signs of one of Obama's biggest secrets: prayer rugs for Islamic prayer five times daily, plus the removal of crescent moon symbols in several areas to make Muslims feel more comfortable. The administration has defended the practice of 25 minutes of Islamic prayer daily by saying other faiths are observed, such as fifteen seconds a week for Christian prayer on Sunday compared to twenty five minutes daily every day of the week for Muslims.
President elect Donald Trump, who acknowledges that this country (the United States of America) was founded by Christians and was built on Christian morals, is having all pagan symbols removed from the property (of the White House) unless they offer some historical significance. Only the cross on the WH chapel will remain for worship.

Trump’s picks at odds with his message
BY NOAH BIERMAN AND EVAN HALPER
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump promotes himself as a man divorced from party ideology, a president-elect just as open-minded to input from Al Gore as from Newt Gingrich.
But with his Cabinet picks nearly complete, he has chosen one of the most consistently conservative domestic policy teams in modern history, setting himself up for hard decisions and potential conflicts with some of his supporters when he begins to govern.
The internal conflicts have emerged with nearly every pick.
Trump campaigned against the big banks, then chose a former Goldman Sachs partner, Steven Mnuchin, to run his Treasury Department. He pledged to save Medicare and Social Security, then chose Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga.), who has advocated sweeping revisions in Medicare and Medicaid, to run Health and Human Services.
Trump has placed the burdens of working people at the top of his agenda, yet chose as Labor secretary an executive, Andrew Puzder, who talked in an interview about the advantages of replacing human workers with machines because they are “always polite, they always upsell, they never take a vacation, they never show up late, there’s never a slip-and-fall, or an age, sex, or race discrimination case.”
And even as Trump aides put out word that the president-elect’s daughter Ivanka would be an influential administration voice in favor of curbing global warming, Trump named a man who has repeatedly expressed skepticism about the scientific consensus on climate change, Oklahoma Atty. Gen. Scott Pruitt, to lead the Environmental Protection Agency.
“This is a big mystery to a lot of people, and it’s going to be one of the hardest things about this presidency,” said Elaine Kamarck, a former advisor in the Clinton administration now at the Brookings Institution in Washington, who has written extensively about the inner workings of White Houses.
Trump has so far shown a deftness at drawing attention away from sticky policy debates with bold, attention-grabbing strokes, a tactic that may help him deflect controversies when he moves to the Oval Office. On Monday, he announced he was delaying until next month a news conference at which he had promised to address his business conflicts of interest, then on Tuesday morning, he staged a photo opportunity at Trump Tower with entertainer Kanye West.
He defied some ideologues in his party, and won goodwill from many supporters, by dramatically persuading Carrier Corp. to keep some of the air-conditioning company’s manufacturing jobs in Indiana rather than ship them to Mexico.
Despite criticism over singling out an individual company with tax incentives and implicit threats to its government contracting business, Trump was able to use the publicity over the deal to promote a message that workers, particularly those in manufacturing, were at the top of his agenda.
“We are going to see a lot of symbolic politics,” said Lara Brown, a professor of political management at George Washington University. She expects gestures like the Carrier deal to prove effective for some time.
Trump’s supporters, Brown said, are more invested in shaking up the system than a particular policy agenda.
But the splashy moves could wear thin if Trump fails to deliver on signature promises, like a jobs boom.
“People will give him the benefit of the doubt for a while, but if things have not become different for them by this time next year, they are going to get restless,” she said.
Trump has sent conflicting signals about how much direct control he will exert over federal agencies.

Gonna move the White House to Wall Street, now, that PE. Why should those two symbols of power be living apart? They belong together, in NYC. I reckon the PE has already found a place to squeeze that big old White House in. Imagine, corporate America and political power coming out of the closet to show their true love for the whole world to see, hand in hand, orbiting around Fifth Avenue and Wall Street perpetually for the next four to eight years.
