Dilution of American Values

Portrait of Young GirlI can say with certainty that I am a very strong supporter of women. I just happen to have two daughters, seven granddaughters, and four great granddaughters. So you might say I am more than a little biased on this subject. The United States isn’t perfect when it comes to respect for women in general, but a whole lot better than most. There will always be predators that commit horrible acts, but that is certainly not the norm. As you have seen in recent years, there have been some high profile cases of molestation of young men as well.

In my opinion, the United States, during the twentieth century made great strides in women’s rights, and the overall level of respect for women. Women now take their places along side of men in business and government, and we are better for it. However we are allowing our nation to be flooded with individuals that do not share our respect for women. The immigrants from Latin America come from a society that has extremely low respect for women. It is not uncommon for Latin American immigrant males to perpetrate sexual crimes against very young females. Take a look at the information below.

GALLUP gathered data from around the world and determined that Latin Americans are the least likely to treat women with respect and dignity. Only 35% of adults in 22 Latin American countries say their women are likely to be treated in this manner. Below are the results of their polling.

World Data on Women .02

United Nations report says that Latin America and the Caribbean is by far the most violent region in the world for women. The rate of sexual violence against women outside of a relationship is the highest in the world. Second highest for those in a relationship. Three of the ten countries with the highest rates were in the Caribbean. Femicide occurred at a devastating level in Central America where 2 out of 3 women were murdered because of their gender. Femicide in Mexico has recently risen to epidemic levels largely due to the increased Cartel activity.

The bottom line here is that we are trying to make America a much better place for women, but our politicians are allowing an unmitigated flow of people into our country that have very little regard for women. The lefties got their underpants in a wad when   Donald Trump, talked about criminals and rapists flooding into our country during his campaign. The statistics fortify that claim. The lefties have a bad habit of ignoring the facts, and portraying the world so that it fits their narrative. It is extremely important for the safety of our citizens, and the growth of our culture to reform our immigration system. We need people that have respect for law and order, and respect for other human beings regardless of their gender, race or religion. We need people that genuinely want to be Americans and be part of the restoration of America. Do not let our politicians dilute our American Values for votes.

My Shorts

Our National Asylum

Chuck Schumer: AKA “Cryin’ Chuck”, head nut from the Democrat side of the aisle. His performances are pathetic and predictable. Extremely boring. No ideas of his own, he just opposes everyone else’s.

Nancy Pelosi: This woman is about as useful as a ladder without rungs. I can’t remember the last time I heard her say anything slightly coherent.

Frederica Wilson: It’s pretty bad when your only claim to fame is wearing novelty store cowboy hats, cheap gaudy jewelry, and saying totally dumb shit.

 Maxine Watters: She’s even dumber than Frederica Wilson. The people in her district that keep re-electing her must be a really special group.

Al Green: Known for his incessant attempts to convene impeachment hearings for Donald Trump and looking a lot like the caveman from the Geico Commercials.

Elizabeth Warren: AKA “Pocahontas”. Knows all of tricks on how to work the system to obtain benefits and status from being a minority, except she’s not a minority, just a plain, everyday ol’ white woman. It’s not hard to fool people that would give away the farm if they had even the slightest idea they were helping a person of a minority race. It helps purge that guilt of being white.

John Lewis: I understand he suffered greatly at the hands of others during a civil rights demonstration years ago, and because of that he is considered a hero among the civil rights crowd. Unfortunately, it appears that he now sees everything through the prism of race. His view of President Trump is his right to have. However, in my opinion, it doesn’t say much for his overall character.

Adam Schiff: This guy is just a hopeless political hack that lacks any sense of reason or ability to see the truth. If it doesn’t fit the party narrative, it must be a lie. Honestly, his personality fits his appearance perfectly.

John McCain: This guy has to be the most confused man on earth. He still can’t figure out if he’s a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, Independent or what. He’s all over the place. One thing you can count on though, his position is always on the wrong side of things.

Lindsay Graham: Another form of John McCain. They like to hang out together, which reminds me of that thing my Mother always said; “Birds of a feather………… you know.

Jeff Flake: Wow, how appropriate is his name? Looks like his nose has been broken a few times. Why do you think that happened? Probably caused by that orifice just below his nose.

Bob Corker: Another appropriate name. Another loser.

I could go on for another hour, but you get the idea. There are plenty of knuckleheads on both sides of the aisle, the ones above just happen to be special. Watching these idiots in action is really painful. The racism that abounds in the “black caucus” is disturbing to say the least, yet they think everyone is raciest but them. What a bunch of “whack jobs”.  We are the most powerful nation on earth, but we a huge collection of “nuts” in our government. Frankly, if the leadership of the other major powers in the world are worse than ours it, doesn’t say much for the future of mankind. Sleep well.

Some Miscellaneous Stuff

The place President Trump was talking about

Could this be the place President Trump was referring to?

Sorry, call me callused or whatever, but I don’t think these folks would bring favorable change to your neighborhood as immigrants. Also, I doubt if you’re going to find very many scientists or engineers in this location. I think it makes perfect sense to encourage immigration from locations where the populations are, let’s say, more advanced in the art of civilization. That understand how to create and maintain a functioning infrastructure. Just sayin’.

The Obama Presidential Library

I saw an architectural plan of the proposed library a few days ago. I must say that the size of it matches his ego perfectly. The folks in the area don’t sound pleased with it either. Having been to the Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, Ca. and the Ronald Reagan Library in Semi Valley, CA. I have somewhat of a bench mark in this matter. The Richard Nixon library is fairly modest in comparison to Ronald Reagans. Considering how the two presidents left office I suppose that makes sense. So, thinking about Ronald Reagans library, with Air Force One perched smack dab in the middle of it, I have an idea for Obama’s Library. He could have a similar room, but instead of Air Force One, a black, unmarked aircraft, with pallets of money on the floor beside it. Atop the pallets of cash, there would be animated figures of the Mullahs celebrating their plunder, singing “Yo Ho HO, Look at all of this dough from O”, sort of like the “Pirates of the Caribbean” in Disneyland. They could call it the “Pirates of Tehran”. Writing about this, made me wonder if the Mullahs are contributing any money toward this endeavor. I mean these guys and Obama have to be pretty “tight”, wouldn’t you think?

Oprah Winfrey and the Presidency

Obama 2.0, Think Angela Merkel, Think Justin Trudeau, Think Theresa May, Think Emmanuel Macron, Think ” it’s a totally stupid, boneheaded idea that only a left wing idiot would ever consider. You think I’m being a little too harsh? I mean she was responsible for Dr. Oz. You remember that guy? I only saw him on Oprah’s show once, and he was exhibiting a penis taken from a dead guy. Not sure what the point was. She was also a friend and business associate of Harvey Weinstein. He’s still alive but his penis may as well be dead. Actually come to think of it, a lot of the same women that were of Oprah’s couch were on Harvey’s couch.

Hey people, the world is overflowing with stupidity, you need to work harder than ever to sort it out. Just remember, my motto at the bottom of my page; Truth Conquers.

Progressive or Regressive?

Modern Truckhorse-and-wagon

This Nation was founded by people that wanted to escape an oppressive socialist style of government. They didn’t want the government telling them how to worship, or live, they wanted to be free men and women. Reading the Constitution and Bill of Rights it’s very clear what their intent was. In the early days of this nation, some towns experimented with Communism and they nearly starved to death. You can read all about it in history books. Well, I’m not sure about that anymore. There has been a lot of historical revision going on in the past few years. The virtues of capitalism were established very early on, and the newly formed nation began to flourish.

From the very beginning, people from many nations, not just England settled this country. They were however mostly European. But they came here with one thought in mind, to build a new nation. They were one in thought and purpose. They didn’t come here to re-establish their home country, they came here to be part of something brand new and different. That’s precisely why the United States grew so strong so quickly. Everyone was working toward the same goal. This nation wasn’t built by celebrating diversity, quite the opposite. Diversity is what happened thousands of years before, at the Tower of Babble. The term E Pluribus Unum was chosen very wisely. From many people one Nation. It doesn’t mean everyone segregating themselves in  their own area, speaking different languages, and having their own culture. It means everyone joins together in unison with common goals, and a common language, to create a strong and sovereign Nation.

For the first two hundred years, those ideas and goals stayed pretty well intact. Then the Democrats decided we needed more immigrants. Not well educated immigrants but folks that they could manipulate and turn them into Democrats by doling out favors and free stuff. When I was a young man, I moved to the Los Angeles area in the mid sixties. I didn’t know jack about politics and didn’t care. But I knew one thing for sure. because I worked in and around LA and I was acutely aware of the huge influx of illegal immigrants. The INS officers as they were called then, would make raids on the businesses in the industrial area and haul away bus loads of folks, and take them back to the border. The same people would show up a few weeks later. It was all a waste of time and money. Then suddenly in the early seventies the raids stopped. Someone, somewhere, pulled the plug on those operations.

The point I am trying to get across, is that this type of immigration does not reinforce the ideas this nation was built on. The fact that 45% of California households do not speak English, bear this out. The real reason Democrats push for virtually unmitigated immigration, is that it’s almost a certainty, these people will eventually become Democrat voters. This strategy is by all measures regressive.

Democrats love to regulate everything. They will tax anything that moves and even some things that don’t. They think businesses are cash cows for their welfare programs. One of the most unfair taxes I have ever seen is Washington State’s B&O tax. B&O stands for business and operations. If you run a business in Washington state and your gross sales for the quarter are $300,000.00 your taxes come right off the top, no deductions. Although the percentage is relatively small, if you have a good quarter your tax bill can be pretty darn significant and difficult to pay. It is one of the more obscene taxes, and there are a lot of them. Heavy regulations and taxation are profit killers. Democrats have always made the claim they are the champions of the working class. If that’s true, why do they make it so hard for the corporations that employ all of these folks, to make a profit. Democrats are not friendly to corporate America and that is regressive.

Over the years the left has been able to gain a real stranglehold on public education. Our schools have suffered greatly. Youngsters coming out of high school are finding it very difficult to gain admission to colleges simply because they are not properly prepared. The public school systems are failing them. The graduation rates in the US are appalling. Granted, it’s not all the fault of the schools. The left leaning idea that it’s OK to be a single parent, and perhaps even preferable, makes it even more difficult for youngsters to navigate the system successfully. The left’s war on families is nothing more than a ploy to make people more dependent on government. Yep, more Democrat voters. That my friend is super regressive.

So, I don’t get it. Why do they call lefties progressives? There isn’t one damn thing they do, that I would call progressive. To the contrary. Almost everything they do puts more shackles on you in the form of regulations, useless laws, and more taxes. They make it harder for your employer to make a profit. They make it harder for you to start a business. They even tax you when you die, and make it harder to pass on the fruits of your life work to your heirs. Stop and think about this; The only thing the government is really responsible for is your safety and the infrastructure. Probably at least 75% of what they spend your tax money on, is none of their business.

I’m Old and I’m Glad, Kind of.

Old Chrysler

I was born in 1941 just less than eight months before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. The first four years of my life was the total duration of World War Two. I can tell you with absolute certainty that it had a profound influence on the way I view the world. I am 100% with President Trump when he talks about America First. As a child I was saturated in patriotism. Red, White and Blue will flow through my veins until I die. My parents were shopping at the local Safeway store the day the war ended. I was sitting outside in the car. I remember a man running down the street shouting that the war was over. People were shouting and celebrating.

We were victorious. The atmosphere was magical. Life was returning to normal and I could feel the excitement even as a child. The dark days of war were over and it felt magnificent. Almost overnight, people started seeing the war born technology being put to use in everyday life. There were huge advances in aircraft and electronics. The mechanical engineers that created deadly war machines were now concentrating on everyday items such as automobiles and household appliances. The auto industry had been put on hold for five years during the war, new cars were starting to be sold again. My Dad took me to a car show in 1947 at the local coliseum, I remember it like it was yesterday, looking at a brand new Tucker and being awestruck. It was like no other car I had ever seen.

The fifties were absolutely incredible. Everything was moving at breakneck speed. The first indication that things were going to be a lot different was the movie “Blackboard Jungle ” and the iconic song ” Rock around the clock “. Rock and roll was born and things were going to get really crazy. Then came Elvis, Jerry Lee, Carl Perkins, Little Richard, James Brown, Fats Domino, Roy Orbison. Wow, what a ride. Being a teen in the fifties was beyond description. The styles were ours, the music was ours, the cars were ours. Hanging out in hot rods in drive in restaurants and drive in movies. It was ten years of non stop “American Graffiti” and I was there, up to my neck in it. I looked like a character out of the movie “Grease”, ducktails and all.

Then the sixties happened. Everything was changing again. The old rock and roll icons were being replaced with more great artists. Styles were changing. Muscle cars were born. We were in the middle of another war, the horsepower war. But this one was fun. Pontiac GTO’s, Plymouth Roadrunners, Chevy 409’s, Ford 426’s, and the list went on. Thank God gas was cheap, these things sucked up fuel like there was no tomorrow. Then things got even better, the mid sixties saw the birth of the “pony cars”. Mustang’s, Barracuda’s, Camaro’s, AMC Javelin’s. The sixties was the car lovers dream decade. Oh yeah, and the music just kept getting better plus we put a man on the moon. Actually several men. Another phenomena happened in the sixties….Hippies. Being a resident of southern California I had a front row seat for this show. It seems the hippie Mecca was San Francisco. Why wouldn’t it be. It’s the capitol of weirdness, always has been. So, I had to see this event first hand. I packed my wife and two little girls in our new Barracuda and drove to “Frisco”.  We drove through Golden Gate Park on up to the Haight Ashbury district. It was one hell of a show. Wall to wall craziness.

Ahh, the seventies!! Rock and roll hit it’s pinnacle. It was the best rock, period!! I loved the fashions too. I got myself some big tall shoes, bell bottom pants, some really cool shirts, love beads, let my hair grow real long, and topped it all off with a Fu Manchu mustache. Make no mistake, I was “stylin”. Had myself a real fast Plymouth Fury with a 440 Magnum, and a nice house with a built in pool. life was good. But things started to take a turn for the worse. The government started messing with Detroit and the cars started to be detuned and the horsepower race came to an end. We started seeing a push for cars that were more economical and safer. Then to make it worse Disco happened. Things literally went to hell overnight.

The eighties were sort of non descript. The music wasn’t that great. There were still a few artists I liked but I was stuck in the seventies. I’ll take Credence over the Bee Gees any day. The cars were totally lousy. The nineties weren’t that much better. The cars were slowly getting better, but nothing earth shattering. The major deal in the nineties was the birth of the PC and the internet, and Microsoft Windows. This turned out to be the most significant event I witnessed in my lifetime. It literally changed the world overnight. It was an explosion of technology that has not stopped for 20 years. Computers have found their way into every corner of our lives. Sometimes I think about that little 12″ screen TV that we had when I was a kid, while watching my 55″ Vizio flat screen with a Vizio sound bar. We had three channels that signed off at 10:00 ‘o’ clock at night.

This brings us to the 21st Century. The technological advances just keep on coming stronger and faster. Robots are now commonplace. When I was a kid robots were science fiction. Sadly though, human beings are not much different. They are still waging war against one another, still murdering each other, still stealing from each other. It’s perplexing to me how as humans we can achieve such incredible things in technology, but we can’t seem to improve ourselves in a like manner. I personally think the social structure in America has gotten worse over the past twenty years. I’m not sure how to cure that. I think the push by liberals for diversity, has caused a regression to a tribal culture, which is just the opposite of what this country was founded on. We are the United States, not the Divided States. Has our selfishness turned us into the proverbial Humpty Dumpty of nations? Can anyone put us together again?

The Perils of Being Human

fetus

HOW WE ALL BEGIN

The very first peril that you face as a human being is that you don’t get to pick your parents. Talking about a crap shoot. You can get a couple of real jewels, or a couple of real fools. If you knew what was on the outside of your Mom’s nice warm tummy, you would never leave. If you’re anything but the firstborn, you have to deal with brothers and/or sisters. That can be really good or really bad. I was lucky, I had two older sisters that were awesome, they spoiled me rotten. But my little brother wasn’t so lucky. By the time he came along my sisters had moved out and he was left with me. I terrorized that kid. He grew up OK though. He asks me if I remember doing those things, I always answer “nope”.  When I wasn’t terrorizing him I was schooling him on life. That makes me laugh ’cause I didn’t know shit. Just thought I did. Fortunately he sorted it out.

Remember that thing about not being able to pick your parents? Well I got lucky on that too. They took real good care of us and always provided all of the regular stuff. But holy cow, they didn’t take any crap off of us. Do something stupid and you got your ass whupped. But if we got sick or injured, our Mom wouldn’t leave our side until we were well. After raising me, she was a certified RN. If I wasn’t cut and bleeding, I had a broken bone. Scraped knees and elbows, bloody nose, you name it I did it. I was in my fifties when I broke my shoulder. I guess old habits are hard to break.

Just when you have elementary school pretty much figured out, you’re thrown out of the womb again into that horrible place called middle school. This is your first experience in the social melting pot. Now you have to negotiate a seriously dangerous social landscape with a bunch of jerks that you never met before, from other neighborhoods. Those people from the other neighborhoods are really weird. You have to figure out who the bad guys are and perfect your avoidance tactics. This is the first time you really seriously consider quitting school and becoming a runaway, or asking your Mom to let you be home schooled. Slowly but surely you get it all figured out, and you build a circle of friends that you feel you can trust. Against all odds you make it to that final day and you’re ready to move on High School.

gothic punks

Wow, you realize that the older you get the stranger the kids get. Now you have a whole new set of bad dudes and strange O’s to figure out how to deal with. Not only that your school work got one heck of a lot harder. Life at home is getting stranger. You notice your Mom and Dad are suddenly dressing different, changing hair styles ( if your Dad still has hair ) and your Mom is doing Yoga, going to the gym, trying desperately to reverse the aging process. They just sold the family minivan and bought a BMW.  Every time you start getting things figured out, it all changes again. You can’t even trust your own parents. Somehow you get through the mine field of high school and manage to graduate. You had your heart set on going to college, but your Mom and Dad spent the family fortune going through their mid life crisis. But your old man has a cool Corvette and a new Harley. Your Mom now wears a triple D bra. She looks damn good on that Harley in her new leather outfit. Makes you real proud don’t it?

construction guy

Well you didn’t get to go to college but you got lucky. Uncle Bob is a Union Construction guy and he pulled some strings and got you in as an apprentice. Geez, you thought high school was hard. You have to get up at an ungodly hour and these frigging guys are animals. You gotta work in the freezing cold, and blazing heat, and if you don’t show up for work, or your late, you get a royal butt chewing. But you have another graduation to look forward to. Two long years down stream you become a journeyman.  Now you get to dish out the crap to the apprentices, and your check just got a lot bigger.

Then you meet that wonderful woman. She makes everything right. Suddenly the future is shining like the sun in Arizona. You just can’t imagine living without her and ask her to be your wife. She accepts and the cycle starts again. The big question remains. As you negotiated your way to this point in your life, how much did you learn, and will you be a better person for what you have been through? Often times we simply make the same mistakes our parents did, and don’t really gain much ground. It’s difficult being a human being. There are literally thousands of ways to fail. Fortunately there are just as many ways to succeed. Whether you win or loose is up to you, providing you were blessed with a strong mind and body. Life is good if you make it good, but it’s one hell of a lot harder.

UFO’s What the Heck Are They?

DSCF0777.JPG

Columbia River Sunset

When I was a kid, I was fascinated with aircraft of any type. I don’t have a clue as to how many model airplanes I built. I had them hanging from the ceiling in my bedroom, a lot of them. When I was about ten years old or so, in the early 1950’s there was a flurry of UFO sightings. ( AKA Flying Saucers ) It seems almost everyone had seen one, or knew someone that had. To my total dismay, I never witnessed a so called UFO. I feel totally cheated. I learned of Donald E. Keyhoe, a Marine Corps naval aviator. He wrote several books on UFO’s in which he spoke about sightings by other aviators as well as the general public. I became a huge fan and read all of his books. It seems that the interest in UFO’s went away as quickly as it had came, and I went on to other interests. But, Mr. Keyhoe had convinced me that they were real. I am to this day sure of it, although I have never seen one. Sorta like Bigfoot.

flying saucer

VINTAGE PHOTO OF UFO ( SLIGHTLY DUBIOUS )

The Department of Defense created a bureau called Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program. They spent 22 million on research over the past few years. Recently Retired Commander David Fravor released some video footage taken from his Navy Jet fighter when he was investigating a UFO in 2004 off the coast of California. It is complete with his comments in which he expresses his amazement regarding the speed and agility of the UFO. You can see it for yourself by looking it up on Google. Commander Fravor went on to say he was certain the object was not of this world. If this picks your interest, there is no shortage of books and videos to peruse. Be sure to read the accounts of people known as ” abductees ” who claim they were kidnapped by aliens and taken aboard spacecraft and were victims of experimental surgery.

The truth is, that people have been reporting sightings of UFO’s for hundreds of years. I have a friend that claims to have seen an incredible display in the Idaho hills when he was a kid, and I know him to be an honest guy, not the least bit “whacky”. So what the heck are they? Where do they come from? With so many eye witnesses over the years it must be true that they really do exist. Could it be that we are living in a Matrix? Are we living in world is merely a façade. Are there are other worlds that are more advanced and sometimes venture into ours? Do we really know as much as we think we do? These questions will remain unanswered I’m sure. In the meantime you have the Game of Thrones to think about.

Politicians, Immigration and Pot

Placeholder Image

   The undeniable fact is that politicians don’t give a rip about you, your family, your neighborhood, or anything else. They care about themselves, preserving their positions, and their chosen political party. Remember that statement while you read the rest of my blog.

   There is not one single thing that is good about illegal immigration. There is not one thing that benefits the welfare of the United States of America. Illegal immigrants pay very little tax other than local sales tax. The only ones that benefit from illegal immigration, are the people that exploit the immigrants, forcing them to work for low wages, just a few notches above slavery. In order to get by, the immigrants have learned how to work the welfare system, and get help from the government. So what it creates, is a sub level class of people in a semi socialist world. They know if they show up at a hospital, they can’t be turned away. They get free medical care. Most of these people come from countries with a socialist style government, it’s perfectly natural to them. Illegal immigration is a huge cost to the American taxpayer. Being in this country illegally, they can’t vote. At least not lawfully. So you have to ask yourself, why do the left leaning politicians turn a blind eye to this problem? Why do they in reality, support it?

   Democrats portray themselves as the champions of the downtrodden, which of course includes the illegal immigrants. Make no mistake about this, they don’t really give a rip about the welfare of these folks, it’s about building a huge voter base to keep them in power. Every so often they raise the roof, and cry and whine, saying that these hard working, honest folks deserve amnesty. They have been working and living here for years, being part of our communities. They deserve citizenship, they’ve earned it. Once they become citizens and are able to vote, do you think they are going to be Republicans? Of course not. They embrace socialism, it’s the way they survived. After these wonderful people become citizens, the Democrats forget about them and move on to the next group to exploit. In the meantime, your cities and towns are struggling, trying to figure out how to deal with the poverty and crime this creates, while the Democrat politicians are safely insulated in their gated communities dining on rich food and wine. No impact on them at all.

   LEGALIZED POT

Let’s be honest here. Marijuana is a mind altering drug. Nothing more nothing less. It may have a different affects than alcohol or opiates, but it is none the less, a serious drug. Pot use has always been suppressed. Therefore not much is known about the affects of it’s long term use. Considering the amount of smoke that pot users inhale, I can’t imagine it doesn’t cause some serious damage to the lungs. Think about this for a moment. The state lawmakers literally stripped down the tobacco companies through the courts, and made them pay millions of dollars to the states to create a fund to pay for people with tobacco related diseases. I would be willing to wager that very few of those dollars if any, ever went to help anyone with tobacco related illnesses. Once that money got into the hands of the state politicians, it was long gone.

Also, smokers were shamed and treated like lepers. Smoking was banned almost everywhere in the public domain, even in public parks. It was amazing how almost overnight smoking became socially unacceptable.  But, suddenly all of those concerns about public health no longer matter, when it comes to pot, it’s a huge cash cow for state governments. They don’t give a shit about lung damage, brain damage or any other ill effects of pot use, because it is lining the state treasuries with millions of dollars. The states have long been facing that fateful day when they can no longer pay the retirement benefits of PERS. They can’t possibly levy enough taxes to offset the impending doom. Then marijuana came along and saved their asses. The state governments have suddenly became your local pusher.

The states are so gleeful about this new found fortune, that they have rushed into the pot market without any of the usual restrictive laws that govern liquor and tobacco. Both of these satanic substances are heavily regulated by state boards. Oh, the states have regulations regarding pot, but anyone that has any knowledge of the business can and will tell you the states almost never enforce the regulations. Can you have a liquor store near a public school, not on your life. Can you have a pot store near a public school, no problem. Here is the bottom line people, The Democrats are money hungry mongrels. They could give a rip less about the problems this causes, they are safely insulated in their gated communities dining on rich food and wine. No impact on them at all. The Democrat mantra is ” show me the taxes “.

The Media Circus & Other Crazy Stuff

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase ” don’t you have something better to do “.  People usually use this phrase when they observe someone doing something that is, in their mind trivial to say the least. That’s precisely how I feel about what is termed the main stream media. They spend huge amounts of time spinning nonsense about President Trump. Don’t they have anything better to do? There has to be other things to report on. I suppose when your so focused on your intense dislike for something or someone, you just can’t bring yourself to talk about anything else.

STEVE BANNON

I didn’t really know much about this guy before the election last year. I knew he was connected to Breitbart News, but I never read his stuff. From what I have heard, he is a pretty far right guy. I used to follow Andrew Breitbart and I had a lot of respect for his investigative reporting. Again, I know very little about Steve Bannon, but he never impressed me when I heard him speak. He looks like a disheveled mess, hardly someone that would command your attention, other than digging into your pocket for change, expecting him to hit you up for money. My opinion of him at this point in time is he  someone that is out for himself, and has no loyalty to anyone. One of those ” anything for a buck ” guys.

THE FBI

What a surprise. Well, it’s really not, at least for me. I have seen so much corruption surface in the Federal Government over the past several years, I’m not really surprised by anything anymore. I think anyone that is awake for at least two hours a day, realizes that the elite politicians, and the wealthy, can literally get away with murder. Read O.J. Simpson, Ted Kennedy, among others. So when you see the FBI stacking the deck in Hillary’s favor, are you really surprised? Well, it looks like we are going to get another look at it. Will it matter, who knows? Stay tuned.

 

 

First blog post

HELLO FROM MY NEW HOME

I moved my blog to a new home to have a more normal address that’s a little easier to remember and type. This is my first blog so I’m a little unsure how it’s going to look when I finish. The political scene is kind of boring at the moment, all of the actors, good and bad, are off enjoying the Holidays. I hope you enjoy my picture I posted below. It’s a Hennessey Venom on the Texas Mile. That’s the stuff that makes me tick. I came out of the womb searching for my first car. Unfortunately, as much as I love cars, I could never afford the ones I really wanted. The cars I want are owned by the 1%.  I never quite made it to that level. God blessed me with a talent to draw and paint them, that’s good enough for me. Occasionally I will post one of my pictures for you to view.

I did see something on the Fox News web page today that highly amused me. This is a perfect example of the term “snowflake”.  This happened at a dorm at Michigan State University. It seems someone lost a pair of shoelaces, still packaged. Another person saw them laying on the floor and picked them up and hung them on the door knob next to where  they found them. The person living in the dorm thought they looked as if they were made to look like a noose and reported it as a racial hate event. How bad of a state does your brain have to be in to see that in a package of shoelaces.
