Is Russia about to Invade Ukraine? Even though President Obama and all those writers made all those strong statements and wrote all those articles saying the loss of nearly 300 lives onboard MH-17 was Russia’s fault, and that it would hurt Russia? Is it possible empty words do not deter aggressors? As President Obama readies his executive orders for the border illegal immigration crisis, talk of impeachment continues to percolate. While impeachment may be the only legal remedy for an executive gone wild, would the nation support it? How would that work with a Senate controlled by democrat – and wait! Who would be Vice President? Joe Biden? Oops! Meanwhile cascading crises may solve the Obama problem long before the House gets around to impeachment. How many problems can the US handle? When will people stop watching baseball, and the Tour and start paying attention to world affairs? Sponsored by Baklund R & D.

Why polls suck and other updates to the latest stories. What do Americans think of the ‘situation’ in the middle east, asks the media? How do we know, we’re depending on you to tell us what’s going on. Garbage in, garbage out, right? Aren’t you sick of Gallup, and all the other polling agencies that do polls just to get headlines? One analyst says its going to be a ‘Republican Wave’ election, another one says it isn’t, all based on polls. And then there’s Congressman Paul Ryan. Shouldn’t it worry “conservatives” when the left says, “Ryan may have a point”. Is making the federal government stronger a republican value? Plus, Plague in Colorado and China. Chikungunya (no that is not on the menu at your local Indian Restaurant), weed in rental cars in Colorado, weed being bought with EBT cars, and the city of Berkeley, California demanding that homeless be given free pot.

Updates on all the big stories. Thanks for all the emails and comments about Podcast 178, outlining the very latest facts on the MH-17 story. This is one of the things podcasting allows us to do very well. Updates for the week continue with the latest on the MH-17 story. Allegations about MH-17 swirl while the President eats hamburgers and hits the hustings to raise money. What do we know about this story and what is conjecture? What can the US do, and what IS the president doing? What about Europe? Meanwhile the crash site in the Ukraine is under the control of ‘Drunken Separatists’ (which sounds like a band name). Actor James Garner of ‘The Rockford Files’ fame is dead at 86. The upper midwest is under a heat advisory, which means heat and humidity and uncomfortable Minnesotans. Think there’s no inflation? Why are two pairs of jeans that used to be 40 dollars suddenly 130 dollars! Sponsored by X Government Cars!
