GOP Wipeout?

Some conservative political observers fear that Republican party officials insist on hiding their head in the sand and do not understand the severity at hand. Frustration appears to be making way to desperation for @POTUS and his @VP

When you have a partner who will not accept mistakes and will always blame problems on others, this is a disaster waiting to happen between strange bedfellows.

Will the GOP push the panic button or overreact in a wildly impulsive, confused, or excessive manner, often because it is the last resort to be used only when all else has failed?

Write to The White House and to Capitol Hill. Remind them who is paying the bills. Tell them how you really feel about this urgent life and death matter.

Last but not least, please make sure you are registered to vote. Threaten them with poling first, and then your power at the polls.

A good school is an educational institution which provides a learning environment and a place for the teaching students under the direction of faculty members.

Now that all schools are back after Summer vacation, all I can say is that only the kids were on a long break and in my opinion, kids had an overrated vacation because instructors continue training and preparing their lectures and tasks 12 months a year.
