A View From Behind – Look Beyond The Dust
Opinion November 16, 2017
Believe me, it’s better than “leading from behind.” Oh, sure, if you are the leader, the view’s the same despite the dust, but when you know what you’re looking for, the perspective changes and the dangers reveal themselves including all the obstacles, the road ruts, the promises broken and the many forks in the road ahead. It’s a dangerous path America is following and the dangers are perceptible if one knows where to look. Look beyond the dust.
On the surface, it is assumed that America has two political parties when in fact, it has five. The once premier American party, the Democrats, long ere since rotted from the inside, changed its stripes from Constitutional Americanism to a good facsimile of the Communist Party USA, intent on collectivizing America by creating two classes, the leadership class composed of the establishments elites (them) who think they know better how to make people happy, and the followers (us) who it is believed, know nothing and need to be led. It’s dusty out there.
The other party is the Republican party, a feckless bunch who desperately want to be in the top class, beloved and respected but clueless to new facts and changing times. They live in fear of being invalidated, of being dismissed as inconsequential which is exactly what is happening now. The tawdry assault against Judge Roy Moore of Alabama is evidence enough of that.
It must be a terrible thing to live in fear not knowing when some muslim will decide to use his automobile to mow you down with other pedestrians, or Christian worshippers fearful of a black clad antifascist, entering their sanctuary and gunning down men, women and children in their pews, or Republican Congressmen and Senators fearful of losing their chairmanships or worse, their jobs because they are afraid to do what is right and Constitutional and what is expected of an American politician instead of what the money lenders want. It’s a choking cloud of dust.
There are however, three other Party’s lurking in the wings, two intent on destroying America regardless of what the other parties do. First, the Marxists far left wing of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren that represents the modern version of the old Soviet Bolshevism variety, still playing by the old rules. On the Right, the Constitutional wing of the Republican party, (Tea Party) who will, very shortly I think, become the party of Trump trying to rescue America.
Finally, the Fifth Columnists, “Organizing For America,” the Party of Obama, a collection of violent totalitarian fascists who go where they are led, destroy as they are told, and riot as it pleases them. This group is especially hateful and dishonest. They claim to be anti-fascists when they are the very epitome of fascism. Their propaganda is inflammatory, offensive and deadly. Their mission is to incite violence, always trolling for targets for their hateful wrath, and their goal is to seize America, destroy Trump and protect Obama’s legacy, by force if necessary.
These reprehensible people include the Antifa and Black Lives Matter, et. al., who perform like Germany’s SA, SD, & SS all rolled up into one. Their “Fellow Travelers” include the main stream media who, in their delusional hysteria over Trumps Presidency, have thrown all pretense of objectivity aside and go all in with their lies, and made up stories against all Conservatives they see fit to destroy, while ignoring the offenses of their own (Clinton’s, Menendez, etc.).
We’re organizing into group people states, unreconcilable to any point of view but their own. The Constitution, the guide laid down for us to follow, is out of date they say, because it interferes with the radicals and their desire to destroy the world’s only bastion of freedom, the USA. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (15Nov17)
Tax Changes How About The Fair Tax?
Opinion November 14, 2017
Let me try to understand this. We are debating changes to our “Progressive” tax code, to make it easier for politicians to shake us down with us liking it, with people who can’t balance the checkbook and won’t listen to us anyway. Am I missing something?
So far, I have not yet heard the words “Fair Tax” enter this discussion. Why is that? Well, It’s all about economic control that allows politicians to pick and choose winners and losers. That power alone allows them to keep their jobs, stiff us, and make us play their game. I’m tired of it.
When corrupt politicians control our lives and we don’t recognize what it is doing to us, we allow their actions to pass on without complaint hoping apparently, that somebody else will do something. Americans just want to be left alone to provide for their families and their retirements, and it’s always the damn politicians who stand in our way. Less government means more freedom and I think the crippling effect of government deciding who pays how much, is unconstitutional anyway. A Fair Tax would solve that.
Congressional Republicans are ineffective at governing. Before, a few Congresses had over seventy GOP co-sponsors for the “FairTax”. Today, it’s half that. The reason was that it was once safe for them to say; “Yes, we support the Fair Tax” but, they never had an inkling they would actually have a chance to vote for it. They don’t want that. Now they just ignore it and hope it goes away.
When the Republicans became the majority and changing the tax code became a serious issue, they could still talk around it. With Trump’s election, Republicans went into a panic mode because they can’t or don’t want to explain the FairTax, let alone implement it.
I have talked with congressional campaigners in past elections and realized most are clueless about how the real tax system works or how the Fair Tax could improve economics for all.
This might help explain Obama’s twenty trillion dollar national debt he saddled us with leaving Donald Trump to take the blame when it all collapses, as it will, shortly.
The most important reason for their impotence is that under the Fair Tax politicians lose control over us. ‘Nuf said?” They would lose their power to reward and punish Americans using the current tax code and its enforcement arm, the IRS Gestapo, as a weapon. With the Fair Tax, loopholes would be closed and there would be no reason for the corruption lobbying encourages. Lobbyists bring money, and favors to our public servants ensuring the continuation of government corruption, not because money corrupts but because politicians are corruptible. One only need look at the Clinton Foundation and the Podesta Group to see real crime rings that can run circles around the Mafia. The changes wrought could be incalculable. Patronage would be threatened, tax lawyers and tax preparers would go belly up, and, lacking a “raison d’faire,” corrupt politicians would go home and try to exist off their congressional retirements. Not too shabby. With the Fair Tax we could also demand, because we desperately need it, term limits at all levels of government, not just the President.
But, that ain’t gonna happen. You know it and I know it because we simply do not have the power to lift the yoke of oppression off our shoulders or stop the lash on our backs and, be it a Democrat, a Republican or far left Socialists like uncle Bernie and Aunt Warren, our public servants in Washington won’t allow that. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (12Nov17)
Short Takes – Treachery Rewarded?
Opinion November 10, 2017
Deep within the hidden recesses of the Pentagon, lurks a nondescript DoD group called the Joint Personnel Recovery Agency, the lead agency apparently, for interviewing recovered, rescued or deserter prisoners of war, and other captives.
Among their latest achievements, is realizing the fall out gathered from interviews (interrogations?) of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. A lead representative of that group,Terrance Russell, gave evidence at Bergdahl’s sentencing that the deserter/traitor provided a “gold mine” of useful intelligence about the militants who held him captive for years in Pakistan. Well, so did Mata Hari!
Russell testified that Bergdahl’s decision to abandon his post in 2009 produced an unintended consequence, by revealing the tactics used by the Taliban, their methods of imprisoning captured soldiers and, presumably, their own interview techniques. As a result, military doctrine on how to avoid capture and evade, and escape if captured, was updated.
I wonder at what point, after Bergdahl’s return in Obama’s infamous trade deal, did the “interrogations” of Bergdahl cease and the thrust change to “interviews” by Russell’s JPRA group? Because of the seriousness of Bergdahl’s offense any interrogations would be under Miranda warning as criminal. So, who decided to cease ‘Interrogations’ for criminal offenses in favor of ‘interviews’ simply to update military doctrine on escape and evasion? Has justice really been served? I ask because in my twenty-one years career as a military CE/CI/Criminal investigator, we had to be sensitive to the direction any investigation could take. In Bowe Bergdahl’s case, his desertion directly caused the deaths and injuries of other US soldiers.
Russell, whose group produces training and doctrine materials, testified that “Bergdahl’s debriefing added to lessons taught to US troops and allied militaries,” adding that Bergdahl still has intelligence that has yet to be collected that could still help troops in Afghanistan. Of course, now it’s too late. Bergdahl will be on the run hiding from the retribution that will seek him out.
I’m not faulting Terrance Russell or his information collection group for doing their jobs. His work helps keep military field doctrine up to date. It’s a necessary element of theater survival that all troops need to know. Russell’s enthusiasm for doing his job properly is also revealed when he said: “can you give him to me now? I need him now. I needed him three years ago,” “The fact I can’t get that information is wrong.” Russell testified that he had debriefed more than 120 American captives, more than any other US official….Source: Washington Post. 31Oct17 .
The defense appeared to use testimony from Russell and a former Defense Intelligence Agency analyst, to suggest that there is a national security interest in showing Bergdahl leniency. US
Army Col. Jeffery R. Nance, the presiding judge, apparently thought that Bergdahl’s potential punishment, life imprisonment, was simply too much for this army snowflake as he had already suffered enough under the Taliban.
So, the rehabilitation of Bowe Bergdahl, who pleaded guilty Oct. 16 to desertion and misbehavior before the enemy begins. However, there is another unintended consequence: the resentment remains and will fester. How does injustice match resentment? By what remaining Obama values are soldiers to be assuaged of Bergdahl’s crimes? When did mistreatment by the enemy mitigate justifiable punishment of an offenders true crimes? Don’t you wonder too?

Short Takes – Here Comes John Kasich Again

Here Comes John Kasich Again
America is caught in a tsunami of sad news, depending on one’s point of view. Mueller hasn’t found dirt on Trump; NFL players openly disrespects the American flag and National anthem; a shooter in Las Vegas kills 58 people; The Hillary campaign and the DNC were responsible for the phony “dossier” against Trump; another Muslim murders eight with a truck in NYC & etc..
But, we still have internal problems that, if not countered could make the next few years a mirror image of the past eight. I have pointed out in previous articles that Ohio Governor John Kasich has a deep yearning that “he needs to be President,” an obsession almost as bad as Hillary’s. The Governor said: “he would represent a different viewpoint, insisting he wants to restore “basic principles of caring, of love, of compassion, of connectedness.” Well, we just got rid of those dysfunctional viewpoints, didn’t we? Ya just can’t keep a good man down, can you?
What he means is that his ‘different viewpoint’ isn’t the one that the impostor Donald Trump, embraces. Kasich clearly believes the polls that shows Trump’s popularity at a low 30% so Trump must be universally hated, not only by the “establishment” but by the citizens who voted for him. That borders on dementia just like Hillary’s. If you believe Trump’s popularity lies at 30%, you should give up reading tea leaves for a living.
Kasich’s ‘different viewpoint’ is the same “compassionate conservatism” BS that George W. Bush championed. It was such an un-conservative point of view that it left the conservative electorate wondering exactly who we were and, it opened the door to the Democrats. We were also suddenly attacked by the dark forces of Islam. It was the 9/11 murders. We were off guard.
Kasich also said “there has to be a fundamental change, in my opinion, with all of us. I’m willing to be part of that (as President). I want my voice to be out there. I want it very, very much.” Fundamental change? Isn’t that exactly what Barack Obama sold enough of us on that he got himself elected twice despite revealing himself as a complete and ultimately incompetent liar, cheat and hypocrite? John Kasich now enters the ranks as a new Progressive.
Since Trumps November 2016 election victory, 4th place runner up John Kasich still pursues a campaign for Trumps job, as a #Never Trump” darling of the “Establishment.” He insists that Trump was really not who the American people wanted but that Trump was a usurper of the Republican party platform substituting his own “Make America Great Again” plan while ignoring the Party’s principles and advice.
But, Trump is President, and indeed, has started draining the swamp, including republicans. My only observation about that is that Trump never realized just how deep the swamp really was, and despite all the caterwauling from the “elites” including John Kasich, Trump has revealed that the swamp creatures individually are unidentifiable as anything other than corrupted politicians, no matter their party affiliation. Party affiliation only counts at election time. After the election, let the looting continue!
John Kasich reveals himself. Essential to his desire to “restore basic principles of caring, of love, of compassion, of connectedness” is his determination to cling to bipartisanship,with Democrats, to do Americans work. I don’t believe Kasich really knows or understands the enemy he wants to embrace with his “hands across the aisle” nonsense unless he’s one of them. One need only look no further than John McCain, to see and understand the failure of that idea.

How To Dupe A Whole Nation

How to Dupe a Whole Nation
Remember when Obama promised over and over in his campaign for President, that he wanted to “fundamentally change America.” He was mouthing the Marxist goal for a Socialist society. In the frenzy of having a (nearly) black candidate running for president, the organs of Marxist propaganda, the Main Street Media, shouted out the narrative that Obama’s election would bring an end to America’s divisiveness at last, and usher in an era of multiculturalism and diversity that would ease our tensions and, we would all rejoice and be happy.
In doing so, Obama shoved the long suffering Hillary Clinton right off the pages of history as America’s first female president in favor of America’s first black president. Hillary has been scheming for decades to achieve the pinnacle of power, President of the United States, and Obama snatch it away from her. Eight years later, so did Donald Trump.
Obama, in many ways, nearly succeeded because politically, he was a Marxists but, you can’t sell Marxism, it has to be imposed, slowly. He had to change this country to Socialist first. In retrospect, as casual observers, we have witnessed some of the techniques used, and are still being used, to accomplish that goal. Here are a few of them:
- Infiltrate and subvert one of the political parties in the United States. Attack the other one until it is rendered powerless by mocking indecision.
- Infiltrate the courts with judges who will rule on law, not as the Constitution demands, but as “the people” feel about the law. These decisions weaken American institutions by ruling moral and religious activities violate citizens civil rights and claiming that it’s not “fair.” This includes promoting sexual deviancy and inclusiveness as the new normals.
- Gain control of the schools. Use them to propagandize the little children to view socialism and communism as the goal for a happy future for all.
- Ease educational requirements so even the most illiterate can achieve success. Participation trophies for all.
- Gain control of teachers’ unions and put the party line in textbooks.
- Gain control of student newspapers, claim free speech is unlawful and demand censorship of competing ideas, speakers and publications.
- Use student riots (useful idiots) to foment public protests against programs or organizations that do not support the Socialist/Communist multicultural platform for change.
- Infiltrate the Media from the top down including control of book-reviews, editorial writing and policy-making positions.
- Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and Hollywood, and….
- Continue discrediting American culture by degrading its history, claiming its Constitution is out of date, approve all forms of artistic expression that glorifies multiculturalism and socialism, and censure those that do not.
We still hear the term “One World Government.” It’s the dream of a coalition of multinational companies, banks, and International financial firms. People from these organizations have long infiltrated and influenced Western governments around the world and yet, they are not victims of violent change. Why? Because they are the source of that violent change and the street rioters, student activists and even kneeling football players are all their useful idiots in their game of top down control, a “Dictatorship of the elite disguised as a dictatorship of the proletariat.”
Hillary missed the boat. She will not lead our country. She will go no further and her dark place in US history has been affirmed. Stick a fork in her, she’s done!

The Awful Truth – The Clinton’s Did It!

The Awful Truth – The Clinton’s Did It!
Any severe shock to the system, like the sinking of the Titanic for example, or the loss of the unsinkable candidacy of Hillary Clinton, such as she experienced last November, discombobulates the little grey cells that promote cognitive thinking. Dazed, it leads to the design of cunning schemes, plots and ruses that would, hopefully, “rearrange the deck chairs on the Titanic,” and they always go astray. The whole Clinton, DNC scheme to take Trump down is exposing the real depths of corruption that is embedded in our Federal government.
Sinking to the depths of desperate depravity in its attempts to nullify the election of Donald trump, the DNC, under the stewardship of Hillary Clinton, who hates to be blind-sided, but was, went absolutely berserk trying to create a believable plan to discredit Donald Trump. But how?, By blaming Trumps victory on collusion with the Russians. They were aided in their quest by a treacherous Republican deep state donor, as yet unidentified but, my instincts naturally turn to the Bush’s especially after G.W. Bush’s recent ant-Trump statement. But, we’ll see.
The Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, like every campaign does, paid for candidate research against Trump and the several other possible GOP candidates during the Republican primaries. The report on Trump, in light of their massive loss to him, formed the basis of the now false narrative against Trump that the corrupted Director of the FBI, James Comey, seized without qualification as the probable truth. He had to know.
This infamous report, now a “dossier,” was created by Fusion GSP, a background research firm. Fusion GPS supposedly, turned to an ex-MI-6 (British Intelligence) agent, Christopher Steele, as the source of their inquiries in Russia itself. Hence the foolish “golden shower’ and other nonsense alleged against Trump to demean his character.
When Trump refused to fold under the withering assault from the Left’s media, the DNC demanded a special investigator, former FBI Director Mueller, to prove Trumps complicity. Then, their whole tawdry scheme started to unravel. Mueller found nothing except Clinton’s unraveling scandal of collusion with the Ruskies.
Congress was now asking questions and the heat was on. Fusion’s founders having previously testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee now refused to testify to the House Intelligence Committee. It’s getting out of hand and the DNC and Clintons did what they always do: deny everything, admit nothing and blame somebody else.
Here, the story takes its interesting turn. It now turns out that the Fusion “dossier,” was in fact the one they paid for at the very beginning. That it was totally bogus was inconsequential as it was advanced with purpose of driving Trump out of office. Will Hillary escape again? Are there other flunkies she can throw under the bus first? We’ll wait and see.
Between June 2015 and December 2016, Clinton’s campaign paid Perkins Coie, a lawyer, $5.6 million in legal fees. According to DNC campaign finance records, they also paid his firm $3.6 million in “legal and compliance consulting,” though it has not been determined how much was related to Fusion GPS.
Enter the FBI. With the “dossier” in hand, Comey continued to pay British Agent Chris Steel for research until after the election until Steele’s name became public. Comey said some of the information in the ‘dossier’ has been verified (a lie), though not the worst parts, which Trump denied and which has yet never been confirmed. It won’t be either.
The ”dossier” quickly entered the DC bloodstream especially among the media who saw it as final evidence of Trumps criminality. Even Sen. John McCain got a copy and doing his civic duty, handed it over to the FBI. FBI-Director James Comey presented President Trump with a short summary of the ‘dossier’ findings in January 2017. The entire report ended up on the Buzzfeed website shortly thereafter. What caused the collapse? One simple question Trump asked: who paid for the “dossier” to be released?
Comey was fired, basically for his incompetence for exculpating Clinton for her criminal mishandling of classified information, and for his untrustworthiness. Consequently, Mueller, the former FBI Director Comey replaced, like a bloodhound, was set on the scent to exculpate the Democrat machine and destroy Donald Trump, officially with whatever dirt he could dig up.
Now, almost a year later, nothing has been found that even remotely involves Trump or his campaign in a criminal conspiracy with the Russians but, Lo! suddenly the evil that is Clinton’s grubby machinations for cash when she was Secretary of State, surfaces and demonstrates exactly the opposite. It’s a trail that Mueller cannot refuse to follow, a real conspiracy, selling America’s uranium resources to the Russians. All because of a phony dossier Hillary’s campaign and the DNC paid for. How did Shakespeare put it: ”Oh, what tangled webs we weave when first we practice to deceive.”

Short Takes – The Real NFL
Opinion October 26, 2017
The Real NFL
The members of the Negro Football League (NFL), serve less as ‘slaves’ than they do as ‘Gladiators.” They are contestants in combat for the public spectacles in which they choose to perform. They are supplied with proper protective equipment to deflect the blows of their adversaries, their own weapons, their speed and agility.
They are, as well, paid unbelievably high salaries to defray the cost of their off season pleasures. Being an all male clique, they must supply their own women, booze and drugs while avoiding the police who will arrest them if stopped and, they hate to be stopped.
As high paid Gladiators we expect them to perform in the public arena without comment, certainly not to defame or disrespect the people who pay them, or the nation that sired them. They have no other useful purpose in society except for our entertainment. It is a narrow platform upon which they perform and politics, not one of their better subjects, should be avoided at all costs. But, It’s too late. Disgust is permeating the fan base.
To be held forth as grand examples to little children is to tell a gross lie. Proud of their individual histories of incarcerations for illegal firearms possession, drug use and trafficking, arrests for family violence, manslaughters by DUI, and fathering children by multiple women, does not qualify for any status above an employed factory worker struggling to support a family, or an unemployed worker seeking a job. Only their salary makes them unique.
These are ignorant people and many have only recently learned to peel bananas with their hands. That’s why they must play in sports. That’s why many subsequently experience careers shortened by injuries leading to even shorter life’s. Their only individual goal is to achieve a niche in the Hall of Fame or claim a garish piece of finger jewelry to prove their bragging rights. They demand respect yet refuse to give it. Respect is earned, not in the arena of combat, those rewards are money and trinkets, but in the conduct a man demonstrates in living his daily life.
Americans are tired of them claiming a status to which they do not belong but earnestly aspire, as victims because they are black. The thoughtless impulses that has driven most of them to “take a knee” and display a morbid disrespect to American traditions, lies in the psychology of group think. Group think is exactly what Karl Marx intended for the laboring classes. Many, gifted with reading skills ending at the eighth grade level, can only find their emotional release on the playing fields of equals, where end zone displays for crossing a line with a pointed ball, simply reveals the true depth of their real nature.
Money doesn’t buy dignity nor respect. The Dallas Cowboy’s owner, Jerry Jones comments not withstanding, the whole NFL dilemma is going to represent a sea change in American thinking about exactly what is truly important and what’s worth spending money on. In Atlanta recently, in the new stadium and on the same field where the Atlanta Falcons under perform, the crowd for Atlanta’s soccer team exceeded 74,000 fans, “Houston, we have a problem!”
The opiate of the NFL working class, as Marx might have said, is the cheers and admiration that resounds within the confines of the stadium. To the individual Gladiator, glad handing and high fives, chest bumps and pretending to urinate on a goal post like a dog, while once amusing, are now becoming symbols of cultural depravity. The lessening crowds at NFL games show it. When the well dries up, who’s gonna buy their Mama’s a big house?

Can Gun Violence Be Controlled?

Can Gun Violence be Controlled?
This business about free Americans owning guns, it seems, is not going away. The overwrought, dysfunctional left simply won’t let it go using any opportunity to try to seize our guns. “Never let a crisis go to waste” has long been their motto. The Las Vegas massacre is the current issue they hang their hats on to pursue their primary objective, the total disarming of America, the 2nd Amendment be damned. “People are dying by guns; only total confiscation can stop the carnage; nullify the 2nd Amendment, etc. & etc….”
The Las Vegas shooting is still on the minds of most Americans and will be for awhile because it involved guns in the hands of a white male. As no connection to any conservative group has been reported by the media, it therefore follows that the Mandalay shooter must have been a registered Democrat. If he wasn’t, the Alt-media would have never let us forget it.
To the “Left” guns, legally in the hands of free, independent Americans, is the worst possible thing that they can imagine. But, crime statistics do not support the Left’s claims of a vast count of criminal deaths by guns. No matter, because statistics that do not support their positions are irrelevant, lies made up by the NRA. One third of all gun deaths are suicides. Most of the rest are murders in Chicago, Baltimore, LA, and other urban centers of cultural enlightenment.
The rush to legislate guns by ignorant politicians, exclusively Democrats, constitutes their perennial assault on our Constitution, especially the 2nd amendment. The 2nd Amendment gives American citizens the right to possess firearms. The Left contends that our Founders simply could not foresee advancements in modern technology. They claimed that arguments today about why the Founders considered gun possession as a right enshrined in the Bill of Rights, don’t apply by today’s standards. Nonsense! They apply because of today’s standards.
In Colonial America, citizens had to have guns to defend themselves as well as provide meat for the table. The founders knew government couldn’t defend citizens from robbers, thieves and hostile Indians. Governments charge was, and still is, to defend America from foreign attack. Otherwise, you’re basically on your own. So, what’s changed?
What they do not consider is that while firearms existed in the 1700’s and on, so did vehicle’s, hammers, hatchets and axes. It was the black powder gun and the horse drawn wagon that experienced a rapid change by technology but, it was only firearms that were protected by the Constitution as an “inalienable right.” Vehicles hatchets, and hammers were not. Why?
How many murders are occurring today using vehicles? Enough to give us pause when we go out, yet there is no outrage from the Left. More people are murdered yearly with hammers than are killed by guns. Should the left demand that government totally confiscate hammers?
What’s is not seen in our press are the almost daily reports of murderous atrocities committed by Islamic Jihadists against host country citizens throughout Europe, and even here in America and Canada, using knives, cars and home made bombs.
Are Americans becoming immune to gun violence? Can we trust Government to protect us when we need them, like ‘right now’ for instance? We know the answer to that. Of course not. So, keep your guns clean, keep ‘em oiled and keep ‘em legal. The “Left”, they are out to get us!

Obstructionist? Just Who is That?
The radical left media reports that Special Counsel Robert Muller, a former FBI Director and long time close friend and confident of recent former FBI Director James Comey, not finding any collusion, will now turn his sites on Trump for obstruction. That’s wishful thinking. They couldn’t affix any possible collusion between Trump and the Russians so they move to the next word in their vast vocabulary Sadly, the Republican Congress goes along with it. Go after the real crooks.
Mind that Mueller is a Special Council, not a Prosecutor so, before he launches any more attacks against our President, he had better turn his eyes first on the corrupt Dept. of Justice under the leadership of Loretta Lynch and her FBI Lackey, James Comey. Comey, under oath, admitted leaking a memo to the NYT. Problem is, no one has seen the memo(s) so they stand as “hear-say,’ but important to the left, none-the- less. That still marks Jim Comey as an obstructionist if not a liar.
The then US Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, after her exposure of a secret meeting with Bill Clinton on a tarmac in Phoenix, Az, instantly became both an obstructionist for Hillary Clinton’s crimes and, after her steely-eyed confrontation with Comey in her office, guilty of collusion as well. Will their crimes never cease? No, not until the swamp is drained, ergo, the attacks will continue. And they still think Trump is guilty of something impeachable.
This continued hounding of the President for alleged things he didn’t do represents the soft, politically driven effort to remove the hated Trump from office before he destroys everything they love. The losing Democrat party, now having no viable leadership, no message, and no single voice, still manage to scream their way into the news because the radical-left media, i.e.: the NYT and Washington Post among others, are now driving the anti-Trump Agenda.
For example, Obamacare is on it’s death bed. It’s unaffordable and unworkable, as it was intended to be, yet the obstructionists on the Democrat side of Congress claim the Republican Party will suffer terribly if they succeed in removing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, protection for millions of the formerly uninsurable. When a Democrat like Chuckie Schumer, and the media, tells us in heartfelt tones, what is good or bad for the Republican Party, then we instinctively know we’re listening to a desperate and lost cause.
Big legislative efforts like replacing the Obamacare and reforming the Tax Codes, are massive undertakings and much media attention, mostly negative, is devoted to them. Trump, owever, sometimes with the Republican Congress, and between his tweeting at windmills, is rapidly disassembling Obama’s obstructionist regulatory legacy and the Democrats can’t do anything about it. We don’t hear much about that in the media, do we?
The NY Times, the Washington Post, MSNBC, CNN and other leftist media sources, insist on trying to convince Americans they made a mistake in electing Trump. Other polls demonstrate the fallacy of their thinking. The people are not disturbed by Trumps tweets but support him totally. Daily, I get email requests from “traindemocrats.org” looking for signatures to petitions demanding Trumps Impeachment, & etc. while soliciting donations to their cause. These posts are disconsolate in their tone, hateful in their message and desperate in their need. We have ‘em on the ropes.

Response : County residents attend Women’s March
I am terribly saddened by the view of America expressed by these women who were quoted in this article. It is not the same American in which I, and all the women in my family, live.
Or, their perception is terribly skewed. Perhaps by personal events, but I think it may be the fodder being fed by those instilling notions of sexism, racism, societalism, or any feeling which can marginalize you, our Republic, and government leaders they do not agree with.
The first misconception made was “The site of the inauguration. Trash was everywhere and a post-apocalyptic feel of the city depressed us.” This is a statement from the Nation Park Service on Sunday after both events. ” This time around, officials say, visitors were tidier than prior years. Linroth says so far, the cleanup is going well. Fortunately a lot of people, even though the trash cans were full, have stacked the trash neatly as close to the trash cans as they could get them, so that is making our job easier.”
Could you be referring to the debris left by rioters, looters and anarchists there to disrupt the right of Democracy-at-work and a peaceful transition of powers ?
You say you marched for:
1. Civil rights and social justice for all: Our laws already protect your civil rights and justice for all.
Exert these rights anytime you choose. Take personal responsibility and teach your young women (and men) to do the same.
2. Women’s rights, all of them: Exactly what right do you not have ? Or are you speaking of free “stuff” you want me to pay for ?
3. The right to choose: I assume you mean abortion . You are responsible to make and obtain your own choices. I don’t ask you to pay for my choices and I do not want to pay for yours. You want an abortion ? There are many clinics in Georgia where you can get one. You do not have the right to make me pay for your abortion !
4. The right to be yourself, equal and unmolested. Again, your responsibility. Dress anyway you want, blue hair, nose rings, be a trash collector or a doctor. Who stops you? Equal ? Our Constitution and our laws guarantee that. Unmolested. Your responsibility to stay safe or call a Policeman.
5. You want your daughters to have opportunities because they are capable and not beautiful ? Not a right. A personal responsibility. Teach them respect, integrity, good work ethics, kindness, cleanliness and they will succeed .
6. The marginalized, for you are one; Again, so sad, that you feel insignificant. And again, not the government’s responsibility but yours. Stop feeding on the fodder.
7. The right to work outside the home and to receive birth control. Are you kidding ? Women were enlisted to work outside the home in WW11 when men were serving at war. My great grandmother was a nurse years before that. You have never known a time when women didn’t have this right. Buy your own birth control from any doctor or drugstore. Personal responsibility.
8. Full equality in employment: EEO, heard of it ? Equal employment opportunity. Your responsibility.
9. Misogyny (hatred of women): More fodder from the left. Women are in the government, military, business, entertainment and sports. Please do not ruin your daughter’s life by filling her head with this nonsense !
10. Racism, homophobia, anti-Semitism: Personal problems of prejudice. Government cannot make someone not harbor these feelings. You may try to change that on a one-on-one basis if you wish. Behavior sometimes can change a prejudice. Sounds like all of you may harbor prejudices. And know that “racists” is too often used by anyone of any race to chide a person who doesn’t agree with them. More fodder.
11. Xenophobia ( unreasonable fear or hatred of foreigners) ; The number one job of our Government is to keep its citizens safe. President Trump, and millions of citizens, feel that unauthorized foreigners threaten our safety. Note, he speaks of UNAUTHORIZED foreigners. More of the fodder !
12. ATROCITIES BEING REVISITED BY THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION: The most egregious statement made : What in the world are you referring to ? Please give us one example. I do not believe you can name a single atrocity (assuming you know the meaning of the word)
You ladies will better serve yourselves and your daughters by teaching them personal responsibility, to think for themselves, to look for the best in people and the world, to educate yourself on the history of America and our Constitution, to study the ruination by socialist governments, and lastly, to understand that the government is not your nanny and banker. As Pres. Kennedy said, “Ask not what your Country can do for you, but what you can do for your Country.”
My daughter, 3 daughters-in-law, and 4 young adult granddaughters have never experienced or seen the America these ladies describe. We have chosen our own paths, and rejoiced in our successes. We never felt repressed by any law or man. We rejoice in our God given rights and love America. I wish this joy for all you ladies.
