POLITICALLY INCORRECT, CENTER-RIGHT PERSPECTIVE OF CURRENT NEWS EVENTS

THE SPIRIT OF AMERICA IS STILL ALIVE IN SOME AREAS, LOOK AROUND, JOIN THE FUN.

I belong to a club devoted to the preservation of old military rolling stock. Our club has a large membership and quite a variety of vintage military vehicles. Because of that we get invited to a lot of parades with a patriotic flavor. We were invited to this parade held in a small farming community in Oregon. The Spirit of America was in very good health to say the least. Some of these vehicles arrived by trailer, but most arrived under their own power, including mine. (bottom picture)

The weather was fabulous, the folks from the VFW hosting the parade were super nice to us. What a day, hundreds of people, all smiling, having a great time. It made me forget the turmoil that our government is currently in. It felt like the good ol’ days.

HEY, WE EVEN HAD AN ANG JET FLYOVER!

NOW BACK TO REALITY

I rarely write about an important event like the presidential debate until a few days later, after analyzing the fallout. Well, I made an exception and published an article on June 27 and expressed my views on what I thought actually happened. Turns out I was pretty close to dead right. The Democrats put Old Joe before the firing squad, they needed to garner support to oust the old bugger. All of the legacy news outlets were walking a tightrope in the aftermath, not being too hard on Old Joe, but acknowledging the fact that the lights are on, but nobody’s home. They couldn’t just come out and trash him, they were defending him 24 hours earlier. I mean, how would that look? Not good.

The Democrats are now in a race against the clock to bandage this all up and stop the bleeding. So right now, I would go out on a limb and place my bets that it ain’t gonna be a Trump / Biden race. It’s gonna be a Trump and some other Democrat race. The Democrats know they can’t do the vote manipulation thing again, ain’t nobody gonna fall for that shit twice. So, I really think they are betting on getting a lot of non-citizen votes which will be considerably more difficult to track. This whole open border thing was a mass influx of voters, pure and simple. It was their insurance policy it things went really wrong, which they did.

I’ve heard a lot of speculation about Mike Obama running. Everybody is sick and tired of the Obamas. The blacks are not fans of the Obamas, they think they got the short end of the stick with Barrack. They were expecting a lot more, they feel like Obama turned on ’em. Most people that aren’t comatose, realize that Obama has been running this country behind the scenes, and his third term didn’t go any better than his first and second. Poor old Joe is getting the blame for all of this, but he’s pretty much slept through the last three and a half years, and has gotten more and more weird.

Have you ever just stopped for a moment and thought about the Democrat weirdos surrounding Biden? These people are seriously creepy. This administration out does the old Barnum and Bailey side show freaks. Seriously, close your eyes and imagine being alone in the same room with Alejandro Mayorkas on a dark stormy night. He looks like an Alfred Hitchcock character.

Merrick Garland is so strange there aren’t words to describe this guy. He is able to look you straight in the eyes, never blink, and tell you the biggest lie you have ever heard. And when the house committee people challenge his lies, he just tells more lies. But it’s amazing that you have two Trump supporters serving time for contempt and Merrick Garland, Mayorkas, Chris Wray, and a host of others tell bold faced lies to congress and never face a single consequence, and the congress know full well they are lying.

How about Janet Yellen? I really don’t know if the crazy old lady is lying or just stupid. She’s trying to tell everyone two years ago not to worry, the inflation was “transitory” and would be over soon. As recently as three weeks ago, she said people are talking about high food prices, her reply; “I don’t see it”. That’s because this crazy old witch hasn’t set foot in a grocery store in years. She has staff that buys food and cooks for her, of course she doesn’t see it.

Have you seen any of the congressional interviews with SOE, Jennifer Granholm? She has no idea what the truth is. She lies, then tells more lies to cover the ones she just told. She and her husband have made millions of dollars trading stock based on her decisions as Secretary of Energy. Congress knows it, they call her on it, she denies it, tells more lies and walks away. No problem.

Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin. The guy is compromised in so many ways I don’t have time to list them all. He must be in his position because of his skin tone. I’ll never forget seeing him during the Covid years wearing multiple masks at once, looking like some sort of wacko. I’m sure his positions on supporting the rainbow coalition in regard to the military are imposed by his bosses, but his willingness to be all in is disturbing. Then he just disappears for several days having surgery, doesn’t tell anyone, and Biden ignores it. Well, someone probably actually told old Joe about it, and he had no idea who Lloyd Austin was.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken, another Obama recycle. When you stand him next to Mike Pompeo comparing his negotiating skills it’s like comparing a Barbie car to a Kenworth. I have zero confidence he can represent the USA effectively in any situation.

Then we come down to Kamala. The jolly VP that talks in riddles. I could easily write and entire article about her follies. Having her somehow advance to the oval office is a terrifying thought. But when you really think about it for more than 1.67 seconds, neither her or Joe has been in charge of anything for the past 3.5 years. The US is being ran by an unknown group of people behind the curtain, sorta like the Wizard of Oz. My wife and I were discussing this earlier today, and we both agree the country is literally in free fall right now. I go to the hardware store to buy something for a repair on the house or car, and I’m damn lucky if it’s on the shelf. The store clerk says yep, it’s been backordered for a few weeks, don’t know when we will get it in. If you go the food market in the evening, your favorite stuff is likely sold out. So, I have started shopping early mornings. Coffee is now $11.00 a pound, when Biden took over it was under seven dollars. Chicken is now almost as expensive as steak was when Biden took over. Gasoline is still almost $4.00 a gallon in my neighborhood. Have you tried buying paint lately? I just bought a small flat of ornamental flowers, price was just shy of $16.00 at Lowes. I got four small pots, single flower ea. We bought a new GE dishwasher about eight years ago, at the end of Obama’s presidency. There are only two people in our home so its not like it gets overused. It just died. They touted it as being energy efficient under Obama’s energy savings plan, it only used 1.5 gallons of water, but took over four hours to wash a load of dishes, and they still weren’t clean.

I’m telling you, if we have two more terms of Democrat presidents, we will all be back in sod houses with kerosene lights, traveling by horse and buggy. America has been going downhill on a greased rail ever since Obama took office. You notice I didn’t mention Biden, because Obama is still running the show. This was effectively his third term.

Hey, I wanna go watch Matt’s Offroad Recovery before bedtime, to cheer me up a little and take my mind off of politics, and watching my country being ran into the ditch. Stay alert, stay free. God Bless you all, God Bless the USA.
