It would appear to me the choices that President-elect Trump is making for his cabinet will have to make two oaths, providing if they pass the Senate confirmations. One will be to swear an oath to the constitution of the States. The second is to swear an oath to Trump, swearing an oath that they will kiss a certain orifice that has a silver spoon in it.

CHOICES MADE
Re Trump’s picks: There is a saying in politics: You can gauge the success of your policies and picks by the reaction of your opponents. If they say it’s a horrible decision and you are going to destroy the country, then you know you have made the right decision.

CANADA POST STRIKE RUINS CHRISTMAS
No surprise here that Canada Post is on strike, again, with holidays soon to arrive before we know it, again. Of course they are the only postal service that delivers letters written by children nationally to the one and only Santa Claus. So, good on Canada Post workers who are annually breaking hearts and dreams of Canadian children whose handwritten letters will never reach the big man.

TOUGH TO BELIEVE TALIBAN ATTENDING
I could hardly believe the news the other day. It stated that Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault was attending the UN Climate Summit in Baku, Azerbaijan. Also, the Taliban are attending as invited guests. Would someone ask Prime Minister Justin Trudeau his thoughts about that? How can Guilbeault sit there with those murderous terrorists?
