Capaha fans

I hope the owners of the Cape Catfish Prospect League baseball team will consider installing overhead fans in the grandstands, like some of the other ballparks. It would certainly make watching a game more comfortable during our hot summers.

Flip flop

So U.S. Sen. Schumer was against the Iran Nuclear Deal before he was for it. Democrats flip flop more than footwear in Florida. As a candidate, Trump said he was going to withdraw from the Obama executive action, and we elected him. President Trump has fulfilled his promise, and is now working with geographical partners who are actual stakeholders in a deal.

Democrats

The angst of the Democratic Party is both palpable and hilarious. Democrats have preyed on the poor and minorities for so long that they no longer represent an ideology for good, but rather just a bunch of angry fringe groups with plenty of hashtags, but devoid of morality.

Media and McCain

Boy the left and their lap dog media sure do love and defend John McCain as long as he remains a RINO doing their dirty work for them. It sure is funny that when he was running for president against Barack Obama they portrayed him as your standard racist, bigoted, misogynist homophobe just the way they paint all Republicans.

Senators' response

I reached out to both Sen. Roy Blunt and Sen. Claire McCaskill on an issue that is very important to me and many Southeast Missourians. While I have received many fundraising emails from the senator I have supported in the past, I have not received any substantive response to my legitimate concerns. It has been weeks and a follow-up email. Do they even care about us?

Missouri refund

It has been 49 days since I filed my Missouri income tax return and I still have not received my refund.

US embassy

Four Democratic Party platforms called for Jerusalem to be recognized as the capital of Israel. In June 2017, the Senate voted 90-0 (with 'yes' votes from Democratic Senators Feinstein, Murphy and Sanders) to reaffirm the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 which mandated the embassy move, a bill that passed two decades ago with the support of Democrat Minority Leader Pelosi.

Gender war

Since our young people's gender identity is under assault from many quarters, I think it should be stated and written policy at our schools to do all they can to reinforce the masculinity of boys and the femininity of girls.

American promise

At the risk of being over dramatic, we are at a crossroads. We can choose to either renew the promise of American democracy or not. Choosing the latter course will result in events so catastrophic I can hardly bear to contemplate them.

    Capaha fans: Wonder if the concession stand will be selling catfish sandwiches.

    Flip flop: Crying Schumer has nothing new to bring forward except to be anti-Trump. President Trump has done most of what he promised during the campaign - something new for a President.

    Democrats: Well said....the Democratic Party made up of various hate groups, Illegals, and the Freeloaders.

    Media and McCain: McCain is just a source for the Democrats to use to bash the President. BTW, McCain due to his health issues should retire and let someone else represent Arizona in the Senate.

    Senators' response: You need to be a bigger donor in order to get their attention....sad but true.

    Missouri refund: Late filers get their money after the early filers....next year file early.

    US embassy: Once again President Trump has lived up to his campaign promises....previous Presidents didn't have the B**** to move the Embassy.

    Gender war: The schools are one of the sources for the problem with the new gender identity so don't expect any help there.

    American promise: The USA is a Republic not a Democracy. If the Laws of the Land are obeyed that would help a lot. Respect of others and the return of God in everyday life would also be a great help.

    And that's the way it should be according to Schaefer's World....Tuesday May 22, 2018.
