Hillary Has Only Herself to Blame The Democrats have a simple explanation for Hillary Clinton's loss — the Russians did it. The party that has had a decades-long soft spot toward Moscow and been reluctant to believe that the Kremlin might have aggressive intentions or, say, cheat on an arms-control agreement is in a frenzy over Russian hacking that supposedly denied Hillary the victory that was rightfully hers. John Podesta, the chairman of a Hillary campaign that considered accepting the results of an election part of American writ as of about two months ago, refused several times on "Meet the Press" recently to say the presidential election was "free and fair." In a contest this narrow, anything might have been decisive. But the monocausal Russian explanation for Hillary's defeat ignores her myriad political and ethical vulnerabilities that the Democrats were determined to disregard, despite the obvious evidence of them for

years. Vladimir Putin couldn't have hand-picked a worse champion for them this year. There was no reason to believe that Hillary Clinton was a good politician who could deliver a compelling message, since she had never done it before. The Democratic establishment rushed into the arms of a candidate who, it was clear from the beginning, could well lose to Donald Trump, especially if a few things bounced the wrong way — and is now shocked and outraged that she indeed lost when a few things bounced the wrong way. Yes, the Russian interference was among those things. But some perspective: The hack of the Democratic National Committee disrupted the early going of the Democratic convention, but the convention was still a wild political success. Certainly none of them had the effect of the James Comey letter 11 days before the voting, which dominated the coverage for days and led to an immediate slide in Hillary's poll numbers. This is why Democrats tend to lump in James Comey with the Russians when arguing that the election was hacked, even though he's the director of the FBI, not the FSB. Comey is a public servant who had to grapple with the unprecedented cir-

cumstance of a major political party knowingly nominating a presidential candidate under FBI investigation. Who thought this was a good idea? Democrats just assumed that everything related to the investigation would go Hillary's way. She escaped indictment, but two of the worst moments of her campaign came courtesy of Comey, whose public explanation of her handling of her emails wounded her in the summer. It is true that late-deciding voters broke against Hillary, although it's impossible to disentangle the effect of WikiLeaks, the Comey letter and natural factors, i.e., she was the known quantity running as the quasi-incumbent at a time of great voter discontent, setting her up for a fall at the end. Democrats are calling for an investigation of Russian interference in the election. This is entirely appropriate. But everything points to the Democrats not being able to handle the fundamental truth of what happened on Nov. 8 — they took a flier on a historically weak candidate out of a misbegotten attachment to the Clinton dynasty, and paid a grave price for their foolish mistake.

In 1992, Wreaths Across America was founded by Maine business, Morrill Worcester to continue and expand the annual wreathlaying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. The organization's mission "remember, honor, teach" is carried out each year by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies each December at Arlington, as well as hundreds of veterans' cemeteries across the nation. Now a 501(c)(e) non-for-profit and national organization, they lay wreaths in over 900 cemeteries throughout the United States Last year, Buchheit Logistics donated a transport of wreaths to honor our fallen veterans and Logistics driver and Army Veteran Thomas Tinnin picked up and delivered the wreaths. Seeing the success of last year, Buchheit Logistics donated the transportation of two loads of wreaths this year. The journey started in the beginning of December when Buchheit Logistics drivers John White and Jim Griffaw headed to Maine to pick up wreaths to lay on the headstones of fallen soldiers.

PERE MARQUETTE BALD EAGLE DAYS

Bald Eagle Days programs at Pere Marquette State Park in Jersey Co. are scheduled throughout the winter. Reservations are required. Check the schedule and make reservations today. For details, see the brochure at this link: https://www.dnr.illinois. gov/Parks/Documents/ B a ldE ag leD aysPere Marquette.pdf

John White is a native of St. James, Missouri and joined the United States Marine Corps in 2007. In 2009, he was deployed to Iraq where he was stationed at Al Asad Air Base. He was honorably discharged after serving in the USMC for four years and began working at Buchheit Logistics in 2013. Jim Griffaw, a Cape Girardeau, Missouri native, joined the Army in 1986. He was assigned to patrol the Korean Demilitarized Zone from 1986-1987. Ten months after his enlistment in the Army had ended, Jim was recalled from the IRR in support of Operation Desert Storm. Jim has been working for Buchheit Logistics for the past twelve years. Both drivers returned from Maine the second week of December and were greeted with a warm welcome. On Wednesday, December 14, John White was escorted by police, American Legion Riders, Patriot Guard Riders, and other supporters as he headed to Camp Butler National Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois. From Springfield, the wreaths will

be distributed to Camp Butler National Cemetery, Oak Ridge Cemetery Memorials. O n D e c e mb e r 1 7 , 40-year Buchheit Team Me m b e r a n d A r my Veteran, Howard Hall will deliver wreaths to Mound City to be distributed to Mound City National Cemetery. On December 15, Jim Griffaw was escorted to Bloomfield, Missouri and wreaths will be distributed to Missouri State Veterans Cemetery, the American Legion in Benton, St. Denis Cemetery, Old Benton Cemetery, St. Lawrence Church Cemetery, Lightner Cemetery, and St. Joseph Cemetery. The wreaths were laid by volunteers on National Wreaths Across America Day on December 17, following a wreath laying ceremony. On December 20, Buchheit of Centralia manager John Hendrickson presented wreaths to the local American Legion, AMVETS, and VFW. A Wreaths Across America display is also available for viewing at all Buchheit locations.

NO LADIES BINGO DECEMBER 31ST

Cooking With Lizzie

Quick Shrimp Quiche

1 pimiento, slivered 1½ cups grated Swiss cheese 4 eggs 1¾ cups light cream 2 T. butter

Grease a 13x9x2-inch baking dish and cover bottom and sides with rectangles of crescent dough, pressing firmly to seal all seams. Sauté shrimp and pepperoni lightly in butter; add pimiento. Sprinkle grated cheese on crescent dough crust. Top with shrimp mixture. Beat eggs with remaining ingredients; pour over filling in crust. Bake in preheated 400° oven 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 325° and bake about 30 minutes or until custard is set. To serve, cut into small squares. Makes about 24 appetizers.

Phyllo Meat Pie

1 lb. ground beef or lamb 1 medium onion, minced 1/4 cup dry red wine 1 tsp. dried parsley flakes 1 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 lb. (10 to 12 sheets) phyllo dough

2 T. butter or olive oil 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 T. tomato paste 1/2 tsp. oregano 1/4 tsp. pepper 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 cup butter, melted

Cook ground meat in butter until lightly browned, breaking up meat with a fork as it cooks. With a slotted spoon, transfer meat to a bowl and discard all but 2 tablespoons fat from the skillet. Cook onion and garlic in remaining fat until onion is soft. Add wine, tomato paste and seasonings and stir to blend well, cooking 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add to meat mixture and mix well. Let cool for 10 minutes, then stir in cheese. Carefully unroll phyllo dough and cut sheets in half to form 12x8-inch sheets. Place one sheet in bottom of a greased 12x8x2-inch baking pan and brush with melted butter; lay another sheet on top and brush again. Continue until there are 10 to 12 sheets in the pan, each brushed with melted butter. Spread meat mixture evenly over phyllo dough. Continue to layer remaining sheets of dough over the meat, brushing each with melted butter. Bake in a preheated 350° oven 1 hour or until top is crisp and golden. Cut into 2-inch squares, then cut each square into 2 triangles. Serve hot. Makes 48 appetizers.

Bacon And Egg Roulade

6 T. butter 1 tsp. salt 3 cups milk 1 lb. bacon 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese

3/4 cup flour Pinch of paprika 6 eggs, separated 1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced

Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add flour, salt and paprika; stir to combine. Gradually add milk, stirring until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring often, about 4 minutes or until thick. Remove from heat and blend in egg yolks. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into mixture. Line a 15x10- inch jelly roll pan with waxed paper; grease and flour the paper.· Pour batter into pan. Bake in a preheated 325° oven 40 minutes or until golden. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet until crisp. Drain and crumble. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon drippings; add onion and sauté until soft. Cool roulade slightly and turn out onto another sheet of waxed paper. Cover with cheese, then sprinkle on bacon and onion. Roll up from the long side. Remove to a platter and cut into 3/4-inch slices. Makes about 20 appetizers. SAUCE: 1 cup chicken broth 1/2 cup sugar 2 tsp. soy sauce

Sweet-N-Sour Turkey Bites

TURKEY BITES: 2 lbs. ground raw turkey meat 1 cup dry bread crumbs 1/2 tsp. pepper 2 tsp. oil

1 cup pineapple juice 1/3 cup red wine vinegar 2 T. cornstarch 2 eggs, beaten 1 tsp. salt 2 T. butter

Combine sauce ingredients in a large saucepan. Stir to dissolve sugar and cornstarch. Bring to a boil, stirring, until sauce becomes clear. Cook 1 minute. Lightly mix turkey, eggs, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Shape into small uniform-size balls. Heat butter and oil in a skillet and sauté turkey bites, a few at a time. Add them to the sauce and simmer 15 minutes. (Or place sautéed turkey bites in a casserole, add sauce and bake, uncovered, in a preheated 350° oven 20 minutes.)

IDNR REMINDING ANGLERS OF THE IMPORTANCE OF SAFETY WHEN ICE FISHING The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) is reminding anglers that heading to their favorite frozen fishing holes does come with risks this time of year. As the temperatures drop in

The Shoppers Weekly Papers Centralia / Salem Area

Illinois, those who enjoy yearround fishing may start heading to their favorite location to participate in ice fishing. “The IDNR cannot stress enough the importance of

safety when ice fishing. Ice fishing can be a great and fun time, but can change into a dangerous situation in just seconds. Being prepared and ready for anything can save your life,” s aid IDNR

Conservation Police Chief Rafael Gutierrez. Those planning to ice fish should stay off of ice that is less than 4 inches thick. It is recommended anglers carry a rope or floatation device with them to help assist if someone falls through the ice. Wearing a life jacket/personal

floatation device (PFD) is always recommended when fishing offshore, including when ice fishing. For additional information on ways to make your next ice fishing trip a fun and safe one, visit the “I Fish Illinois” website at http://www.ifishillinois.org/programs/ice.php.

EAGLE LIFE

Ministries by: Cliff Sanders

Believe in Miracles Christmas is wrapped in miracles. The prophets foretold the coming of Christ, who he was, where and how he would be born, centuries before his birth. The appearance of angels, the Christmas star that led the magi from the east to the precise location of Christ in Bethlehem, the providence of God, the miraculous conception of Christ by the Holy Spirit in the womb of the young virgin Mary, remind us that God is a God of miracles who or-

chestrates his sovereign plan for the world that had become shrouded in darkness. For many, Christmas is a trying time, colored by grief, loneliness, and the struggles of life This Christmas you can be illuminated with the light of Christmas if you will believe in miracles. BE AWARE OF ALL THE SIGNS AND WONDERS OF THE CHRISTMAS STORY. Read the many prophesies of the coming Christ fulfilled in

PAWS and claws A Page Dedicated To Our Four-Footed Fuzzy Children.

Dog’s Nose-Licking Is a Common Problem DEAR PAW’S CORNER: After my dog “Twitch” got out of the yard a couple of months ago, he came back with a big scratch on the tip of his nose. Since then every time it scabs over and starts to heal, he licks it with his tongue (it just reaches) and opens it up again. It isn’t infected, but it won’t heal and looks awful. What can I do to stop him from licking his nose? — Wendy, via email DEAR WENDY: The tip of the nose is a tough spot to have a scratch when you’re a dog. The skin is somewhat thin, and the wound itches as it heals, and what dog can resist licking that itchy spot?

Even though the wound isn’t infected, you should consult the vet, even if it’s just a phone call. He or she may recommend a specific medication — say, a nastytasting antibiotic cream — or have other advice that can help. Many pet owners say they’ve had some success with dabbing a triple antibiotic ointment on the sore spot twice a day, and distracting their dog for a few minutes with a treat or playing with them. A few owners recommended placing a muzzle (or a comfortable cloth muzzle) on a dog for short periods to give any medicine being used time to sink in. If you go this route, be sure to supervise Twitch the entire time, give him lots of praise and a treat before and after putting the muzzle on. Nose wounds that won’t heal can be troublesome, but keep looking for ways to treat the scratch that will reduce Twitch’s urge to lick at the spot. © 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

PERE MARQUETTE YOUTH WINGSHOOTING CLINIC AND PHEASANT HUNT Young hunters between the ages of 10-17 can apply now for the Pere Marquette Youth Wingshooting Clinic and Pheasant Hunt scheduled for Saturday, March 4, 2017 at Pere Marquette State Park in Jersey County. The Pere Marquette Youth Clinic and Hunt have been popular late winter/early spring additions to the IDNR Wingshooting and Youth Pheasant Hunting Programs. Most youth pheasant hunting opportunities are offered at IDNR Controlled Pheasant Hunting Areas in the fall or early winter. On March 4, young hunters will participate in a wingshooting clinic during the morning. National Sporting Clays Association/IDNR Certified Wingshooting Instructors will teach the wingshooting clinic. Young hunters will advance their wingshooting skills while practicing safe shotgun handling and operation during the clinic. The pheasant hunt will

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) With the new year’s opportunities almost within reach, the Arian’s courageous aspects are raring to go. And don’t be surprised if a lot of people follow the zodiac’s most trusted leader. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Change lies ahead for the brave Bovine who is ready to shuck off the tried and true to try something new. But appearances can be deceptive. Check it all out before you charge into anything. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This week promises a peek into what the new year holds for the Gemini Twins, both in love and careers. Family matters continue to be a factor in decisions you’re going to be facing. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) As you move into the new year, your travel aspects grow stronger, and you might find yourself making decisions about a destination and a traveling companion sooner than you’d expected. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The new year holds both glitter and gold. This means Leos and Leonas should begin getting the facts they’ll need to separate the real thing from the sham in order to make important decisions next year. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A good way to start the new year might be to arrange for a visit to someone you haven’t seen in a long time. You also might want to pick up that project you put off a while back. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) As you contemplate the new year’s potential, you might want to talk things over with people who are

or have been where you want to go. Their experience and advice can be helpful. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Someone close to you might feel like you have no more room for him or her in your life. This calls for immediate reassurance of your love so you can start the new year on a high note. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) The coming year will bring more people into your life. Some situations might not work out as well as others. But overall, everyone earns something, and that’s always a good thing. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) The new year could find you indulging in one or more of the hobbies you’ve always wanted to take up. And don’t be surprised if they ultimately direct you toward a new career. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) The artistic Aquarian should find more opportunities in the new year. You might even make some potentially helpful contacts as you gather to ring in the year 2012. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The new year offers challenges for Pisceans who want to make better use of the skills they now have and learn new ones. Personal relationships show stronger positive aspects. BORN THIS WEEK: Although at times you tend to be a bit judgmental, you are generous and caring and very much beloved. © 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.
