Ted Cruz doesn't even know what state he's from

Ted Cruz just said in the Republican Town Hall - "In my home state of Florida, at Fort Hood"

His home state is Texas and Fort Hood is in Texas.

Now Trump has mentioned it at least twice.

I'm tired of this crap on my Facebook timeline

Old high school friend continually posts this crap on Facebook. After I finally give it to me he unfriends me.





Messaged him and told him that he shouldn't be surprised to see it again!

About the jury system

Saw this in the Hillary group but it works both ways. Good advice to prevent stalkers from alerting on your posts.

EBOLA: GUINEA TO QUARANTINE 816 PEOPLE IN LATEST FLARE-UP

Source: Newsweek

Guinea’s health authorities are tracking more than 800 people potentially infected in the latest recurrence of Ebola in West Africa.

An estimated 816 people who may have come into contact with Ebola victims or their corpses have been traced since Saturday, Fode Tass Sylla, spokesman for Guinea’s Ebola coordination unit, said on state television on Monday.

Sylla said that the contacts were cooperating and would be quarantined in their homes for 21 days, after which they would be released if they did not show any symptoms of the virus.

The recent Ebola epidemic in West Africa was the deadliest in the virus’ history, claiming more than 11,300 lives, including 2,500 in Guinea. The outbreak is believed to have begun in Guinea with a toddler who died of Ebola in December 2013. The country was declared Ebola-free on December 29, 2015, but four people have died in the latest flare-up in Guinea since February 29.

A while back I said something about Hillary Clinton calling Henry Kissinger her friend.

I was quickly corrected by a Hillary supporter who told me that Hillary didn't say that Kissinger was her friend, only that she had admired him and his work as Secretary of State. Well I got to thinking about it and decided to google it and this is what I found

From the NYTimes no less, in her own words to a review of his book "World Order":

http://www.nytimes.com/politics/first-draft/2016/02/12/hillary-clintons-ties-to-henry-kissinger-come-back-to-haunt-her/

“Kissinger is a friend, and I relied on his counsel when I served as secretary of state,” Mrs. Clinton wrote in The Washington Post, in a positive review of his book “World Order.”

The friendship came back to haunt her in the Democratic presidential debate on Thursday night, when Senator Bernie Sanders pointedly questioned Mrs. Clinton’s foreign policy judgment, saying President Richard M. Nixon’s secretary of state had enabled genocide in Cambodia under Pol Pot.

“I’m proud to say Henry Kissinger is not my friend,” Mr. Sanders said.
