Perhaps in the not so distant future we will all be persons of no color! Until then those differences will be politically exploited one way or the other. Thank God that the black community chose to follow Martin Luther King instead of the Black Panthers in the Sixties.

As the pandemic and accompanying economic depression increase the level of black anger in this country due to higher black deaths and lower black incomes the 6400 dollar question then becomes, will they chose to follow someone like Obama or someone like the Reverend Al?

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

The five stages are denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance are a part of the framework that makes up our learning to live with what we have lost with this pandemic. We went thru the denial period of hoping it wouldn’t happen here and are now becoming increasingly angry about the poor response to it! As the body count increases we will become very angry. Some will blame Trump, some China and some God.

The real bargaining will begin this Fall as the Virus rears it’s ugly head again accompanied by a massive global economic depression. Acceptance won’t begin until the pandemic runs it course, perhaps by the Spring of 2022 or if the global depression ends which ever happens first.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

Currently the medical community is driving the cure for the pandemic which they do not have, other than social distancing. This in turn has shutdown huge swathes of the worlds economy pushing unemployment rates to record levels. In turn the world is expending huge amounts of cash to finance this distancing effort!

Once we run out of this cash the West will be even more broke than it was before the Virus unless the economy is back up and running like it had been. As that is not likely to happen, many companies will not be surviving or even paying back the rescue money they were given. In turn the world’s poor will get poorer with many surviving the pandemic but not surviving the resulting starvation and poverty. When that begins to happen in earnest likely this fall our medical experts should be forced to take a back seat to longer term global economic and survival challenges.

And  that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

So creepy Joe has run for President three times now and finally has a shot at grabbing the brass ring. No surprise here because when he was elected to the US Senate in November of 1972 he chose to serve the people as opposed to his two hospitalized sons who had just lost their mother and sister in December of that same year. Yes, a very harsh assessment but the stark reality for Joe was to either focus on his kids or focus on his career and he chose the later! Clearly was not the best choice for his youngest son, Hunter.

The reality is that Joe is nothing but ambitious and it was that ambition that drove him to make the very same mistake two other very ambitious democrats made. This huge strategic Iraqi War vote blunder would effectively cost both Kerry and Clinton the Presidency. Not only is Joe a pro but he is a way nicer guy than Trump. Unfortunately for America a President Biden will move us closer to last place!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Otherwise known as International Socialists. Their ultimate goal is to rule the world and to eliminate any and all forms of nationalism. While this is a lofty goal you have to wonder just how close they are to actually achieving this when they are nowhere close to imposing a climate change or pandemic fix on all of us. The Paris climate accord doesn’t even work in Paris!

But as the West continues it’s decline there will be increasing calls by it for an international solution to fix global problems that they no longer have the resources to fix by themselves. The ascendency of the East, who for the last millennia has been the West’s whipping boy will more likely impose a solution that maximizes their own expanding nationalistic political and economics goals.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

Lost a High School classmate to a motorcycle accident. Twenty years later we had a young kid come with his mother into the factory I ran looking for work. He had been in a motorcycle accident and had scrambled his brains. Unfortunately he couldn’t physically do the light assembly work we needed. Fifteen years later we knew someone who knew someone that had purchased a bike. A month later the husband was killed and his wife broke just about every bone in her body. A new driver coming out of a side street pulled out in front of them because he had been blinded by the sun! (Just like what happened to George Clooney)

Driving home on the highway the other day my wife surprised by a speeding bike screamed as it went roaring past us at about 100 mph. The State I live in mandates wearing seatbelts but there are none on motorcycles. My car has to be crash tested for occupancy safety but as far as I know there aren’t required crash tests for bikes. The State used to require helmets but rescinded this law when bikers pushed back. NUTS!!!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

Yup we are a racist country but the fact is that is how some Asian immigrants pronounce Fried Rice. My Asian slurp and burp store owner says Tank You to me every time I purchase something from him also. These are very hard working folks who will make America great again, at least for themselves anyway.

Growing up with two German born grandparents they spoke broken English and mispronounced words also. My father who came to this country at the age of two entered first grade not speaking a word of English. I imagine with the very German first name of Deiter that it was difficult for him during World War Two as well. But as they say if it doesn’t kill you it can only make you stronger!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

As I emerged thru puberty I increasingly became the man of pink steel. My blood flow went permanently from my big head to my little head and as a result I became stupider and stupider. There are some who think that we are either not members of the animal kingdom or are at the very top of it. During my middle school years you could have fooled me either way.

I met my future wife during those years and paid no attention to her until the very beginning of our Senior year when in walked the most beautiful swan I had ever seen. She would be voted most beautiful in our class later that year. Over the last 40 odd years that we have been married my blood flow gradually went back to my big head. Only then did I finally realize just how lucky an ugly duckling I had been that she had chosen me as her mate for life!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

 

 

The actress Carole Lombard is reported to have once said of her husband actor Clark Gable that if his penis had been an inch shorter he would have known as the Queen of Hollywood instead. While the IT girl actress Clara Bow said of her lover actor Gary Cooper that he was hung like horse and could go all night.

There is an old joke about President Reagan sitting next to Bubba Smith at a dinner banquet and the President asked Smith if it was true that black men were well hung. Smith told Reagan that it was and when Ronnie asked him why, Bubba told him that every night before he went to bed he gave his penis a big rap against the bedpost. When Reagan got back to the White House late that night he could hear the First Lady snoring in bed. So he decided to give his penis a big hard rap against the bedpost, where upon Nancy woke up and asked “is that you Bubba?”

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

During the US election of 1972 demmy nominee George McGovern made the argument that as Vietnam was a Civil War we had no right to be involved there. I remember after Watergate seeing bumper stickers that said don’t blame be I’m from Massachusetts. I didn’t have one of those because even though I was from there, I had voted for Tricky Dicky. Yup I own that one!

Some 22 years later their was another Civil War that the demmy President Slick Willie did not get involved with which unfortunately turned into a genocide! Don’t recall ever seeing any bumper stickers that said blame me I’m from Massachusetts. I didn’t vote for Clinton so I don’t own that one! But hey unlike Nixon, he did admit his mistake in allowing the Genocide in Rawanda!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

And not the one you wish for! The world was caught flat footed by Covid 19. There have been over 100,000 deaths in the former EU (includes UK). While in the USA there have been over 40,000 deaths. China deaths where this all started is reported to be less than 5000. Their respective populations are 500 million, 330 million and 1.5 billion. So it would appear that the Chinese dictator did a way better job of waging war against the Virus then the democracies did!

Should it reappear later this year without any kind of solutions or fixes for it the democracies may want to consider suspending their constitutions (marshal law) in an all out effort to save lives. The Chinese would be doing the same if in fact they had a constitution which of course they don’t! Let’s not let them do a better job the next time around.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

If Trump doesn’t have the authority to open the States did he have the authority to close them? It appears that the Governors are deciding when to open them so did the Governors have the authority to close them? If so was Cuomo too slow in closing New York City? Or was that Mayor De Blasio’s call to shutdown the City? Has NYC or even the State of New York been shutdown?

Currently Cuomo and De Blasio are fighting over when the NYC schools will open with the Governor telling the Mayor that he is the decider. In fact it wasn’t until April 15th that the Governor mandated wearing face masks and yet mainstream media on the left is raving about his pandemic performance. Has the media forgotten that his State has the highest body count. But hey his performance giving interviews with his brother is wonderful!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

An accepted practice by many countries over the millennia, the last country outlawed it in 1982. The fact is that whites enslaved whites, blacks enslaved blacks and the very first slave holders in America were Native American Indians. Perhaps the Indians should use some of their casino money to compensate their formerly enslaved red people? In order to have an objective discussion on American Slavery one needs to understand it in its larger context!

In the black community we have had an influential convicted black person advocating for the black community to take increasing responsibility and control over their lives while another influential convicted black person is advocating that the black community take a slave reparations check instead. At the end of the day White Americans need to do a much better job of finally integrating it’s black citizens which is long over due! But throwing money at folks who were never slaves is just another form of income redistribution.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

Saw Doris Kearns Goodwin on C-SPAN discussing her book about FDR. She said that FDR had a adulterous relationship with Lucy Mercer for 2-3 years. In fact Mercer was with FDR when he died. Anyway during the war to end all wars FDR was the assistant Secretary of the Navy just like cousin Teddy had been. While visiting the UK, FDR received a number of love letters from Lucy.

So here is Franklin cheating on Eleanor with her own social secretary and what does FDR do? He saves Juicy Lucy’s letters and brings them back across the pond. Not only that but having packed them in his suitcase Franklin now lets Eleanor unpack them only to learn that her husband was boinking the help. But Doris maintains that Franklin’s intent was not to leave his wife because he loved her. If that’s the case than FDR has strange way of showing it.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

 

 

The left in the USA point to the UK National Health System (NHS) as an amazing example of how Healthcare should work in America. The Royals are shown coming out of one but of course they use the  “private” NHS wing which is where the Rich and Royals get their healthcare. Everyone else comes out of the public NHS wing!

In the USA no congressional democrats signed up for Obamacare (not even Barack, Bernie, Biden, or Betsy) and once the democrats eventually take away all our private healthcare plans to fund their misleading Medicare for ALL plan the POLS won’t be on Medicare then either! The rich and influential in the USA will have the same private healthcare that the rich and influential have in the UK. Way better for them then the rest of us! As someone has said if you think healthcare is expensive today wait until it’s free!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

The question is? Is someone more American than another American? I suppose it depends on what standard is being applied here? For example Julius Rosenberg was born in America like me, but I wouldn’t consider him to be a better American than myself. I know someone who was born in America but also holds a Canadian passport. They may not be less of an American than I am, but I do think that having only a US passport makes me more of an American then they are.

How can that be? Well if things shit to bed in this country unlike the Canadian/American I don’t have a plan B. If the Canadian American wants to get rid of their Canadian passport and join me completely in America’s bed than they become 100% American just like I am. But what about all of those Asian folks who come here to have their kids but then return to Asia with their American born? Are those kids as American as I am? Nope! And yes, Congress needs to fix this! Just don’t hold your breath that Pelosi and Schumer will do that anytime soon.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

The media is famous for publishing bad news. As they say if it bleeds it leads. Applying the 80/20 rule, 80% of the mainstream media leans left while 20% leans right. Therefore the overwhelming percentage of blood that is being reported will be on the rights hands while only 20% of the blood will be on the left’s hands!

Now this does not necessarily mean that it is fake news but rather that the disproportionate media bias advantage of the left overwhelms reality. For example in the early 1800’s this media bias lead people to believe that Jefferson was Adam’s superior and while Jefferson was clearly the superior politician, Adams was by far the superior person.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

So Jamie Dimon the CEO of JP Morgan Chase is predicting another recession on the scale of the last one in 2008. Dimon does not want to use the D word and especially the G.D word. But watch closely how Italy and Spain recover financially or not as they are the EU canary’s in the mine.

The housing bubble was created by Democrats Barney Frank and Chris Dodd when they pressured the banks to eliminate Red Lining, which fellow democrat Bloomberg blamed it on. The elimination of Glass Steagall didn’t help either! The Democrats then fixed the Great Recession by pushing the Fed to spend 4 trillion dollars on buying up mortgages. All of this will push the West into a G.D. Depression.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

 

 

The CEO of Blackstone has compared the times we live in the USA as being similar to America in the 1850’s. The 1850’s were pro-slavery versus pro-abolition while today it is pro-capitalism versus pro-socialism. This issue is being driven by a combination of globalization and technological advances. As a result declining income distribution coupled with declining incomes in general is driving both left and right to their extreme positions.

CEO Schwarzman believes that the decline in education excellence in the USA has exacerbated this downward trend. While he is correct the increasing dominance of democrat lead teachers unions will continue to accelerate this downward trend. A global depression will rout any remaining capitalist support in the USA. The West lead by America will then take a back seat to the East lead by China. Ironically democrat Bloomberg would have done a better job of saving capitalism in America than republican Trump has!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

 

 

 

/ˈbyo͝orəˌkrat/

Plural noun: bureaucrats

An official in a government department, in particular one perceived as being concerned with procedural correctness at the expense of people’s needs. I remember the head bureaucrat of the US Federal Aviation being told by his political boss to shut down all incoming flights on 9/11. The bureaucrat’s CYA response was that he did not have the authority to do that! Where upon his superior told him that if there were any more plane crashes it would be on his head! Yup he closed the airports!

So the bureaucrats at the CDC wanted to develop their own test for the Coronavirus instead of using the one that had already been developed by the World Health Organization while only using their own labs. This not only slowed things down but exacerbated an emerging pandemic. The bigger the government gets the more bureaucrats will screw things up in order to protect THEIR own turf!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

New York all by itself has taken the worlds lead in Coronavirus deaths and sicknesses. One extreme is that this was all Trumps doing while the other extreme is that it was all Cuomo’s fault. It does beg the question why other states like California, Illinois, or Washington have not experienced the same degree of sickness or death.

You can be sure that the New York Times will place the entire blame on the other New Yorker instead. This is because the NY governor is being discussed as a future US President and the Times effectively only endorse Democrats, especially New York ones. The Chinese did lockdown Wuhan perhaps Cuomo should have done the same, but of course had he done that nobody would be talking about him for the Presidency.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

 

Saw Ben-Hur in the theatre when it premiered. Great Movie! Churches should be playing and chorus’ singing the music from it every Easter. Makes perfect sense that it was written by a US civil war general given what he saw and did during this bloody war!

Unfortunately the old men running the Roman Catholic Church are incapable of saving itself from themselves and even Christ wouldn’t recognize or accept what it has become over the Millennia. Not only is the Pope not rowing fast enough he is not even rowing in the right direction. Time for a Pope Francine. That said I must admit that I’m only a twice a year church attendee and even a lady Pope might be way too little way too late to save me!

And that is not all I’m going to say about that. Click on arrow and listen to this beautiful score and stay safe!

 

The Spanish flu burned itself out in the spring of 2019 when humans developed herd immunity. That is to say that all of the vulnerable humans had died off and what remained were people who could withstand the flu. Once that happened the flu had nowhere to go and it disappeared. 99% of these fatalities were under the age of 65 with half being between 20 to 40 years old.

The majority of Coronavirus fatalities on the other hand are people aged 60 and over. This group in general is sucking more resources out of society than contributing to it. So culling this part of the herd is in the long run less financially painful then those who were culled by the Spanish Flu.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

There were 3 different waves of illness during the Spanish pandemic, starting in March 1918 and subsiding by the summer of 1919. The pandemic peaked in the U.S. during the second wave, in the fall of 1918. This highly fatal second wave was responsible for most of the U.S. deaths attributed to the pandemic. A third wave of illness occurred during the winter and spring of 1919, adding to the pandemic death toll. The third wave of the pandemic subsided during the summer of 1919. An estimated 1/3 of the world’s population was infected with the 1918 flu virus – resulting in at least 50 million deaths worldwide.

The current Chinese pandemic will create a significant number of asymptomatic people who are not displaying symptoms but might infect people later this year once we have discontinued practicing social distancing. This could create a significant problem in the fall of 2020.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Two months before the novel coronavirus is thought to have begun spreading in Wuhan, China, the Trump administration ended a $200-million pandemic early-warning program aimed at training scientists in China and other countries to detect and respond to such a threat.

Headline in LA Times attacking Trump. How quick they forget that the Chinese doctor who identified the Chinese Virus was completely ignored by his own government. Also why when we are up to our eyeballs in debt are we spending this kind of money in China on job that they or the WHO should be doing. But hey at least the Chinese have now banned the eating of dogs and cats in one of their larger cities!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

As a member in good standing of the sticks and stones generation I understand how social media has driven the country completely in the opposite direction. Today if you hurt anyone’s feelings for any reason what an awful person you are. Unfortunately this standard is dictated by any single individual feelings and as such has created a completely useless standard for establishing acceptable behavior for society.

This isn’t to say that sticks and stones behavior was perfect but frankly beats the hell out of what is being imposed on us by social media bloggers today. Perhaps the pendulum will swing back to something more collectively sane but when you consider the current popularity of the Kardashian’s I’m not going to hold my breath that it is going to anytime soon.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

On his first day as President, Jimmy Carter pardoned 100,000 Vietnam war draft dodgers. Had these folks opted to go to jail instead of Canada, perhaps the war would have ended sooner. Will never know but for this reason they should not have been pardoned but had there sentences commuted instead.

Because of Vietnam President Nixon opted to disconnect the military from civilians and created a professional army instead. This made it all too easy for the idiot W to be able send them to Iraq. I remember non-vet Cheney saying that unlike him they had volunteered to serve. Had the draft existed it would have been way more difficult for Speaker Pelosi, Senator’s Clinton, Kerry and Biden to vote for the Iraqi war declaration.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

FRANCE IS HAVING A GENERAL STRIKE OVER THEIR 42 DIFFERENT PENSION SCHEMES THAT THE GOVERNMENT WANTS TO “STANDARDIZE”! IN THE USA WE HAVE THE SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM WHICH ESTABLISHES PAYOUT BASED ON WHAT YOU PAY INTO IT. THE S.S. TRUST FUND IS SCHEDULED TO RUN OUT OF MONEY BY 2034. AT THAT TIME BENEFITS WILL BE REDUCED BY 25% TO ALL RETIREE’S. THE SYSTEM WILL THEN BE LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK BUT PAYOUT IS BASED ON THE SAME NUMBERS OF PEOPLE WORKING AND EARNING THE SAME KIND OF DOUGH!

BUT ALONG COMES A GLOBAL DEPRESSION WITH FEWER PEOPLE WORKING AND THOSE THAT ARE, ARE MAKING WAY LESS MOOLAH! THIS IN TURN MEANS THAT SOCIAL SECURITY IS TAKING IN FAR FEWER BUCKS AND PAYING OUT FAR FEWER BUCKS AS WELL! THE FOLKS WHO RELY ON THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY COMPLETELY (AND WHO TEND TO VOTE DEMOCRAT) WILL BE SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER. ONE SHOULD THEN EXPECT THAT PAYOUT WILL NO LONGER BE BASED ON WHAT YOU PAID IN BUT RATHER BASED ON EVERYONE GETTING EQUAL PAYMENTS REGARDLESS!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

I’M FROM THE SCHOOL THAT THINKS WE SHOULD HAVE ALLOWED THE GLOBAL ECONOMY TO GO INTO A MILD DEPRESSION AFTER THE HOUSING BUBBLE BURST BECAUSE WE WERE ALREADY HEADED FOR A DEPRESSION ONCE THE BOOMERS RETIRED IN FULL FLIGHT BANKRUPTING BOTH THE SOCIAL SECURITY TRUST FUND AND MEDICARE.

INSTEAD WE BOUGHT OUR WAY OUT OF A MILD DEPRESSION IN 2008 (AND INTO A GREAT RECESSION INSTEAD) BY BORROWING UP TO OUR EYE BALLS IN DEBT. THE COMBINATION OF THIS DEBT LOAD COUPLED WITH THE SOON TO BE HERE BOOMER RETIREMENT DEBT WILL DRIVE US INTO A REALLY, REALLY GREAT DEPRESSION INSTEAD OF WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN TWO MILD ONES. THE 2 TRILLION WE JUST BORROWED FOR THE PANDEMIC ONLY MAKES THIS WORSE AND LIKELY WILL MAKE THE GLOBAL DEPRESSION HAPPEN SOONER AS OPPOSED TO LATER!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

Years ago I worked with a older guy who was originally from Armenia. He hated Stalin so much that when world war 2 started he joined Hitler’s army and fought against the Russian army. At some point he married a German woman even though he had a wife and son back in Armenia.

As part of the peace treaty the allies agreed to return any Soviet citizen that had fought against their “country”. Eisenhauer said that this was the most repugnant thing he had to do during the war because he understood that many would ultimately die for their sins. Because the guy I knew had married a German he was not forcibly returned and eventually emigrated to the USA. After Stalin’s death he was allowed to return and visit his son who he hadn’t seen since the war began. His son had become a devote Communist and he never returned!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

LBJ once compared serving in the US house of reps as chicken shit and serving in the US senate as chicken salad. Quite sure he left the White House thinking that serving as US president was a shit salad!

My recipe for making chicken salad is to slow cook 2 skinless and boneless chicken breast in chicken broth. Reserve a 1/4 cup of the broth to mix in with the shredded chicken, chopped celery, salt, pepper and mayo. Serve on a bed of iceberg lettuce!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

So every hundred years or so we are doomed to relearn the lessons of history. In this case the pandemic lesson. In our arrogance we think that modern medicine will save us but let’s understand that the miracle of antibiotics has in turn created superbugs. Perhaps in the end we will have completely outsmarted ourselves! Will see!

We are also coming up to the 100th anniversary of the 1929 Stock market crash. Given the West’s increasing debt load it looks to me that we are going to have to relearn the lesson of a global depression as well. In turn this will coincide with a transition of world dominance from west to east.

And that is all I’m going to say about!

Back in the day Germany made the best cars, Japan made the good cars and America made the better cars. Unfortunately for the Big Three and the UAW if you were making the better product you needed to be doing something else. So now they are the Little Three and no longer making cars but only trucks where they have a significant tariff advantage. Plus the UAW no longer has a monopoly in the USA as they have repeatedly attempted and failed to unionize foreign car producers with plants in the USA!

As the democratic socialists continue to take power in the USA they will continue their push to make America a better country. Unfortunately when that happens we will no longer be the best or even a good one!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WHEN I VISITED ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY BECAUSE IT WAS VERY OBVIOUS THAT DEATH WAS NOT TREATED EQUALLY FOR EVERYONE BURIED THERE! CLEARLY THE HIGHER THE RANK THE FANCIER THE DIGS (NO PUN). THE VERY BEST DIGS ARE THOSE OF PRESIDENT KENNEDY WHOSE ETERNAL FLAME WILL BE FOREVER BELCHING OUT CARBON INTO THE ATMOSPHERE!

I’M REMINDED OF ANOTHER PRESIDENT WITH EVEN FANCIER DIGS WHO INSPIRED THE OLD JOKE OF WHO IS BURIED IN GRANTS TOMB? THE ANSWER IS NO ONE IS ACTUALLY BURIED IN GRANTS TOMB BUT RATHER THE GENERAL AND HIS WIFE ARE ACTUALLY ENTOMBED THERE!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

Never understood why people spend thousands of dollars on funerals. My oldest brother spent big bucks planting himself above ground and in doors! In the end most of these ex-folks are going to end up like Richard the Third, underneath a paved over parking lot.

Recently the local Catholic Church raided their cemetery funds that they hold for in perpetuity care of the graves in their cemeteries. They did this so that they could payoff lawsuits caused by molesting Priests. Frankly unbelievable that they would compound their PR problems by appearing to look like a bunch of grave robbers! But perhaps it is ironic that they might have to eventually sell the church land for parking lots which of course is exactly where they found Richard III.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

 

Remember a year ago when you had some so called pranksters filming themselves licking ice cream from the carton and then putting it back in the store freezer? One of these idiots only got 30 days in jail! Can you imagine what they would have gotten in the middle of a pandemic for doing something like that!

Some might argue that the pandemic ice cream licker should get a long jail sentence, I say the licker should get a real licking instead! If this was an eye for an eye type of  thing you would be cutting his tongue out but I would settle for a life time ban on buying Ice Cream. People need to understand that screwing with the American food supply is not to be tolerated!

And that is all I’m going to say about!

I am not only one half Irish but one half of twins as well but not Irish twins ! Irish twins are two separate births of siblings that happen within a 12 month period. They are called Irish because of the Irish Catholic immigrants propensity for larger family sizes. My Irish grandfather was the oldest of 13 kids, I was one of nine!

I was a fraternal twin who once dated an identical twin! Growing up my mother dressed us in the same clothes, while giving us similar names. We were generally referred to as The twins. But not only am I ok with Irish twins it would be perfectly ok if there were Black Irish twins as well!

And that is all I’m going to say about!

NO QUESTION THAT THERE ARE ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE WORKING IN CONCERT TO CREATE AN INTERNATIONAL SOCIALIST WORLD ORDER! BOTH CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE PANDEMIC WILL HELP TO FUEL THAT MOMENTUM BOTH HERE AND ABROAD. IN ORDER FOR THAT TO WORK EFFECTIVELY OVER THE LONG TERM YOU HAVE TO IMPOSE EQUAL MISERY ON EVERYONE! THAT WILL NOT BE EASY GIVEN THE DISPARITY IN GLOBAL INCOME DISTRIBUTION.

THE EU ATTEMPTED THIS BUT BECAUSE THE UK ENDED UP WITH 2 MILLION EXTRA FOLKS SUCKING OFF THEIR SOCIAL SAFETY NETWORK THE BRITS OPTED TO BREXIT. IN ORDER TO ACCELERATE THIS PROCESS THE DEEP STATE SOCIALIST WILL SEEK OTHER WAYS TO EXPEDITE THIS INCOME INEQUALITY REDISTRIBUTION INCLUDING SLAVE REPARATIONS FOR BLACK AMERICANS AND THE GREEN NEW DEAL FOR ILLEGAL HISPANICS!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

YES THESE ARE VERY DEPRESSING TIMES! BUT THAT IS NOT THE KIND OF DEPRESSION I’M TALKING ABOUT HERE. ECONOMISTS ARE ALREADY PUTTING THEIR TOE IN THE WATER AND STARTING TO DISCUSS THE POSSIBILITY OF ANOTHER RECESSION. THEY WOULD BE CORRECT IF THE PANDEMIC ENDS THIS SPRING! WHAT CONGRESS AND TRUMP ARE DOING ECONOMICALLY WILL HELP PREVENT A RECESSION IF IN FACTS IT ENDS IN EARLY 2020.

HOWEVER NO MEDICAL EXPERTS ARE SAYING THAT IT WILL AND HISTORY SAYS OTHERWISE SO IF IT DOESN’T END THIS YEAR THEN WHAT CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT ARE DOING IS JUST THROWING GOOD MONEY AFTER BAD WHILE ADDING TO THE FEDERAL DEBT! A WORSE CASE PANDEMIC WILL PUSH US INTO A GLOBAL DEPRESSION, STARTING FIRST IN EUROPE AND THEN SPREADING INTO THE USA! LETS HOPE IT DOESN’T COME TO THIS.

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

JOE BIDEN IS A NICE GUY BUT HE SHOULD HAVE TOLD HIS SON TO STAY THE HELL OUT OF THE UKRAINE. MAYBE TOO JOE SHOULD HAVE TOLD HUNTER TO STAY OUT OF HIS BROTHERS WIDOW AS WELL! BUT MOST CERTAINLY BIDEN SHOULD HAVE TOLD HIS IDIOT SON TO STAY OUT OF THAT STRIPPER! BUT HE DIDN’T AND NOW GRANDPA JOE HAS ANOTHER GRAND KID!

WITHIN WEEKS OF WINNING A US SENATE SEAT IN 1972 BIDEN’S WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE TRAGICALLY KILLED IN A CAR/TRUCK ACCIDENT. PAPA JOE DEBATED ABOUT RESIGNING AND TAKING CARE OF HIS TWO SONS BUT CHOSE TO BECOME SENATOR JOE INSTEAD. PERHAPS THE BEST CAREER DECISION FOR HIM BUT MAKES YOU WONDER IF THAT WAS THE BEST DECISION FOR HIS YOUNGEST SON?

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

WHEN WORLD LEADERSHIP TRANSITIONED FROM THE BRITISH TO THE AMERICAN EMPIRE IT WAS LITERALLY BEING PASSED FROM ONE COUSIN TO ANOTHER! (CHURCHILL AND ROOSEVELT WERE 7TH COUSINS ONCE REMOVED). WE LOOKED AND TALKED THE SAME!

AS THE CHINESE CENTURY BECOMES A REALITY THIS WILL NO LONGER BE THE CASE. EVEN OUR ALPHABETS ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. CULTURAL DIFFERENCES AND PREJUDICES WILL COMPOUND OUR ABILITY TO BOTH UNDERSTAND AND SETTLE OUR DIFFERENCES PEACEFULLY!

EDUCATIONALLY AMERICA NEEDS TO TEACH LESS WESTERN CIV AND MORE ASIAN CULTURE, AND LESS LATIN OR FRENCH AND MORE CHINESE LANGUAGES! IT WILL BE THOSE STUDENTS THAT WILL HELP TO BRIDGE THE GAP IN THE COMING DIVIDE BETWEEN THE USA AND CHINA!

We agree with Warren Buffett that the rich need to pay more in taxes but that it should be retroactive for the last seven years that they underpaid them!

FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS OPEN BORDER, PRO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT AND SANCTUARY CITY LOVING DEMOCRATS ALONG WITH THEIR MEDIA ALLIES HAVE PUSHED AGAINST TRUMP’S EFFORTS TO CLOSE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER! NOW THAT WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC NOT A PEEP OUT OF THEM WHEN HE CLOSES BOTH BORDERS! OTHER THAN TO ASK WHY IT TOOK HIM SO LONG TO CLOSE THEM!

IF THIS PANDEMIC PLAYS OUT LIKE THE LAST ONE YOU SHOULD EXPECT A RUSH OF ILLEGALS COMING ACROSS THE SOUTHERN BORDER THIS FALL. IF THAT HAPPENS THEY WILL LIKELY BE HOUSED IN THE VERY SAME DETENTION CAMPS TRUMP ATTEMPTED TO HOUSE THEM IN LAST YEAR. BUT THIS TIME AROUND THE DEMMY’S WILL NOT BE REFERRING TO THEM AS CAGES OR CONCENTRATION CAMPS!

We hope for the best but plan for the worst. When it comes to the current pandemic the last one started in the spring of 1918, got worse in the fall of 1918 and then tapered off into 1919. The experts are telling us that at best we are not going to have a vaccine for the corona virus for at least a year and a half.

If that is true then worst case is a large number of companies going bankrupt and with the West already drowning in public debt likely to get much worse as tax bases decline while government borrowing increases. We could then be facing a major depression sooner as opposed to later. If the democrats hold both the White House and Congress look for huge increases in spending and taxes.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Not long before he died I asked Goodfella Henry Hill to paint 4 mafia historical events for me one of which was a recreation of the St. Valentines Day Massacre. Al Capone was never convicted of this or any other murder but I’m pretty sure he had a hand in several of the 700 odd murders that took place in Chicago during prohibition.

Today there are any number of folks that believe that unless you have DNA or at least a smoking gun that everyone is innocent. To be frank I’m from the Fireman School of thought that where there is smoke there is likely fire. Yup not all Italians were mafia but all mafia were Italian.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

I was in Toronto during the SARS epidemic there. I was working a mostly canceled American Library Association convention. I think a half a dozen librarians showed up from the States. One was from Johnny Carson’s boyhood hometown, while another was from South Carolina wondering what we might have that could be used by someone in an iron lung. Funny what sticks with you.

At night I would walk Toronto to find a place to get something to eat. Some restaurants were packed while others were completely empty. I soon realized that all of the Asian places were the ones that were empty because SARS had been introduced to Canada from China. I stayed away from those places little knowing that according to today’s social media standards I was being racist. But hey, I’m still sleeping good at night instead of sleeping with the fishes!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

As the number of confirmed U.S. coronavirus cases continues to grow, local courts around the country are dusting off their emergency plans and preparing to play referee if patients refuse to self-quarantine. In Connecticut we have allowed religious exemptions from having to take measles, mumps and rubella vaccine but most of us have taken them so a much smaller overall health problem!

But along comes coronavirus with no vaccine and the 6400 dollar question will be does the State have the legal right to impose a self-quarantine on people who have been granted a religious exemption for them? The gutless CT State legislators just recently grandfathered in allowing all existing religious vaccine exemptions to continue. Once there is a vaccine for the corona Virus let’s hope these same legislators have the guts to put these religious exemption types at the end of the line once it does become available.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

No higher glass ceiling for the ladies than the White House! So glad that Hillary didn’t break threw it but not thrilled with the end result either.

Moving forward the potential 2020 choices are as follow;

Elizabeth Warren-Her former last name was Herring. As she is no longer claiming to be an Indian that makes her a former red herring!

Kamala Harris-She has deferred making any decision on slave reparations. Perhaps because her father is a Jamaican black and that opens a can of worms as to whether he would get reparations.

Tulsi Gabbard-Voted to give the vote to 16 year olds. But hey the lady is young and good looking so she very likely thought she would do well with the 16 year old horny male voter.

Amy Klobuchar-Controls her office with fear, anger and shame and is reported to be one of the worst bosses on the Hill. Good for her we need to kick some butt in DC!

Kirsten Gillibrand-The first in her caucus to ask for Me, Al Franken to resign while stating that Bill Clinton should have resigned over Monica Lewinsky’s handling of the President’s special purpose!

Marianne Williamson-Writer and inspirational speaker.

When the odds are split between two old white guy favorites bet on one of the above lady long shots…ok so not this year!!!!

lTHE OTHER DAY BETSY RED HERRING WARREN STATED THAT THE DEMMY’S DO NOT SUPPORT OPEN BORDERS BUT IN FACT THEIR ACTIONS SPEAK WAY LOUDER THAN  HER WORDS DO! FOR CAREER OR PROFESSIONAL POLITICIANS IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT GETTING POWER OR KEEPING POWER! IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE THE DEM’S WILL FIGHT TO KEEP THE BORDERS OPEN FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO OVERWHELM THE REPUB’S NUMBERS IN RED STATES!

INTERNATIONAL SOCIALISM, SAYS THAT ALL SOCIALIST REVOLUTIONS ARE PART OF A SINGLE GLOBAL CLASS STRUGGLE AND IS BASED ON THE THEORY THAT CAPITALISM IS A WORLDWIDE CORRUPTING FORCE. THEREFORE THE WORKING CLASSES OF ALL NATIONS MUST ACT IN CONCERT SO THEY CAN REPLACE IT. IN ORDER TO DO THIS IN A CAPITALIST DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY YOU NEED TO OUT VOTE THE NATIVES!

SOCIALISM CAN ONLY WORK IF IT IS IMPOSE EQUALLY EVERYWHERE! BUT OPEN BORDERS DO NOT EXIST IN ASIA AND IS JUST ONE MORE REASON WHY THE EAST WILL CONTINUE TO RISE!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

Ok so back in the day they called it the Spanish flu. The other day Republican US Congressman Kevin McCarthy was taken to task by House Speaker Pelosi for being a bigot when he referred to the Chinese Virus Corona. The Middle East Virus MERS did not prompt any bigotry comments from Middle Easterners or from Nancy!

So here we are in the middle of a pandemic and the speaker of the house is worried about political correctness! That being the case she needs to apologize to the people living in the following countries and locations; Australian Bat virus, Barmah forest virus, Crimean-Congo virus, European bat virus, Japanese Encephalitis virus, Lake Victoria virus, New York virus, Norwalk virus, Ross River virus, Sapporo virus, Semliki Forest virus, Seoul virus, Southampton virus, St. Louis encephalitis virus, and the West Nile virus. No wonder the US Congress approval rating is at 23% as of February 2020.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

STOP-AND-FRISK WAS A NEW YORK CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT PRACTICE OF TEMPORARILY DETAINING, QUESTIONING, AND AT TIMES SEARCHING CIVILIANS AND SUSPECTS ON THE STREET FOR WEAPONS AND OTHER CONTRABAND. IT WAS IN FULL FORCE WHILE MY DAUGHTER ATTENDED BARNARD COLLEGE AND PERHAPS COULD HAVE SAVED THE LIFE OF BARNARD FRESHMAN TESSA MAJORS WHO WAS STABBED TO DEATH BY A FOURTEEN YEAR OLD LAST YEAR! IN 1990 THE NYC MURDER RATE WAS 2245 AND BY 2018 IT WAS DOWN TO 285! BUT IN 2019 MURDERS WERE UP ALMOST 8%!

OF ALL USA MURDER VICTIMS FOR WHOM RACE WAS KNOWN, 53.3 PERCENT WERE BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN AND 43.8 PERCENT WERE WHITE. WHEN THE RACE OF THE OFFENDER WAS KNOWN, 54.9 PERCENT WERE BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN. THIS IS SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE BLACKS ARE ONLY 13% OF THE USA POPULATION.

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT

Recently 4 members of a Massachusetts family died in a car/truck accident outside of Disney World when a distracted driver plowed into them. The distracted truck driver was in the country illegally and was captured at the Orlando airport while waiting for a flight back to his home country of Brazil. Too bad that sanctuary democrats are undercutting immigrations ability to find and send these folks back to their home country before they kill someone.

But as Stalin has said firearm and motor vehicle deaths are now effectively only statistics and so nobody really cares unless it happens to their own family. They say that we are a country of laws but how ironic that a country with the world’s most lawyers has become this lawless. Teddy Roosevelt once said that if you wanted to get rid of a bad law you should enforce the hell out of it! Sounds like a good place to start!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

Recently I watched The Irishman with De Niro. There is a scene in the movie where he is standing over 2 German soldiers who are digging their own graves! I remembered by ex-boss telling me that when he was a Captain in General Patton’s G-2 that they would grab German soldiers and he would detail a soldier to take them back to HQ. Because they were a head of enemy lines this could be 10 or 20 miles and then the soldier would have to double time it back to his outfit. My ex-boss said that it wasn’t unusual to see the solider back in line 10 minutes later, implying that the soldier had done what De Niro had done in the movie.

He went on to say how cheap life really was and then regaled me with a story about being in the Hurtigan forest during the Battle of the Bulge and being told that all American’s had retreated thru the forest and to open up on anyone coming thru. They did and unfortunately not all American’s had made it thru and what occurred was largest friendly fire incident during WW2. Yup like is cheap!

Unfortunately for Billy Jeff Clinton, Monica was only a mean girl. After Monica finished blowing the prez’s Harmonica the come back kid would end up leaving his jizz on her dress little knowing how this would cum back an bite him! One assumes that the first lady was neither mean nor nice and had given up on relieving her husband’s stress some time ago anyway. Very likely she understood that Billy Jeff had found other second and perhaps third ladies to help him with his stress!

Hillary has yet to apologize to those of us on the right! But Billary did a super job of convincing everyone that it was just about sex instead of committing perjury. As any self respecting redneck will tell you eating ain’t cheating! Monica on the other hand could have save the country a whole lot of grief had she the nice thing and just swallowed!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

SO PRINCESS MEGHAN TAKES A PRIVATE JET TO NEW YORK FOR HER BABY SHOWER COMPLIMENTS OF THE CLOONEY’S ALL OF WHOM ARE SO CALLED CLIMATE CHANGE GREENHEADS! NOT STOPPING THERE PRINCESS MEG AND FAMILY TAKE ANOTHER PRIVATE JET COMPLIMENTS OF ANOTHER GREENHEAD SIR ELTON JOHN. HOWEVER SIR ELTON CLAIMS THAT HE BOUGHT CARBON CREDITS FOR THIS FLIGHT!

BUT WHY NOT BUY CARBON CREDITS AND FLY THE SUSSEX’S ON COMMERCIAL JET INSTEAD? LET’S FACE IT IF YOU ARE RICH OR FAMOUS OR BOTH THE RULES DO NOT ALWAYS APPLY TO YOU! THE MILLENNIAL’S ARE VERY QUICK TO CRITICIZE THEIR PARENTS FOR THEIR CARBON ADDICTIONS, BUT HEY DON’T YOU DARE TAKE AWAY THE MILLENNIAL’S K-CUPS AND AMAZON PRIME DELIVERIES OF THEM!

IF THE FALSE PROPHETS OUT THERE WISH TO BECOME REAL LEADERS ON CLIMATE CHANGE THEN THEY NEED TO START WALKING THE TALK AND LEAD BY EXAMPLE! THE SAME APPLIES FOR HEATH CARE FOR ALL! LET BERNIE AND BETTY GET IN LINE WITH THE REST OF US! BUT THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

The Nobel Prize Winning Economist Milton Friedman considered himself to be a liberal in the classical meaning of the word. He would understand that today’s so called liberal is in reality a Socialist. What then is a conservative? A conservative socialist. For career Politician’s there is little advantage to being label correctly! In fact the so called liberal progressives are actually Marxist. As Shakespeare says a rose by any other name still smells….

Frankly makes you wonder why they brought Corona Virus patients to the lower 48 as opposed to some island somewhere like they used to do in the good old days! Modern medicine has lulled folks in the west to pandemic threats and yet the over use of antibiotics has created super bugs!

The upside of a Corona virus pandemic is that it is apparently killing off primarily older folks which in turn could mean that the Social Security and Medicare budget deficits may not be as high. Also fewer people consuming carbon and beef could lower the planet’s carbon foot print which should help with climate change. But a drastic reversal in life expectancy would get everyone’s attention and not necessarily in a good way!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

 

 

Dogs are stronger than Cats but Cats are smarter than Dogs! Men are stronger than Women but Women are smarter than Men. Back in the cavemen days it was all about survival of the physically fittest. Increasingly survival is becoming less an issue of strength and more to do with smarts. We don’t need ladies like Warren acting like tougher versions of dumber guys. Looks like the voters in this country agreed as well.

Too bad then that the choice this fall for President is going to be between two old white guys. Biden is a nice guy but we all know what place nice guys come in. Trump on the other hand is not a nice guy. But who would do a better job for the country’s longer term interests? An impeached President or a former Senator that voted for the Iraq War II? Time for a third party!!!

And that is all I’m going to say about!

 

HAD LINCOLN AND DAVIS FOUND A WAY TO SETTLE THEIR DIFFERENCES PEACEFULLY ONE COULD IMAGINE LINCOLN DEMANDING THAT ALL BLACK PEOPLE BE EDUCATED AND DAVIS DEMANDING THAT BLACK PEOPLE BE REDISTRIBUTED THRU OUT THE COUNTRY. LINCOLN WOULD HAVE UNDERSTOOD THAT IN ORDER TO BE EFFECTIVE CITIZENS THE FORMER SLAVES WOULD NEED AT LEAST A GENERATION OF EDUCATION. DAVIS ON THE OTHER HAND UNDERSTOOD THAT THE FORMER SLAVES WOULD HAVE VOTED REPUBLICAN. FREE EDUCATION AND FREE LAND WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY HELPFUL TO THE FORMER SLAVES LONG TERM SUCCESS.

UNFORTUNATELY NEITHER HAPPENED AND THIS COUNTRY AND IT BLACK CITIZENS HAVE BEEN PAYING A HUGE PRICE FOR THIS EVER SINCE. INSTEAD AS A RESULT OF LINCOLN’S ASSASSINATION THE RADICAL REPUBLICANS WOULD IMPOSE EQUALITY ON THE SOUTH WHEN IN FACT THE NORTH HAD ONLY FOUGHT FOR EITHER PRESERVING THE UNION OR ELIMINATING SLAVERY. THE RADICAL REPUBLICANS PISSED OFF WHITE SOUTHERNER’S WHO THEN COME BACK WITH A VENGEANCE AND FOR THE NEXT 100+ YEARS TOOK IT OUT ON SOUTHERN BLACKS.

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

WHAT A GOD SEND FOR BERNIE AS THIS VIRUS TANKS TRUMP’S BIGGEST STRENGTH THE ECONOMY WHILE EMPHASIZING BERNIE’S BIGGEST STRENGTH MEDICARE FOR ALL!  IT IS ISSUES LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE AND PANDEMICS THAT WILL DRIVE THE WEST TO EMBRACE INTERNATIONAL SOCIALISM! IRONIC THEN THAT THE WORLD’S LARGEST SO CALLED SOCIALIST COUNTRY IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF BOTH PROBLEMS!

WHILE THE BLACK VOTE IS GOING TO MODERATE DEMOCRAT BIDEN THE HISPANIC VOTE IS GOING TO THE SOCIALIST NON DEMOCRAT SANDERS. YOU THEN UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY WHAT A.O.C MEANS WHEN SHE SAID RECENTLY THAT “IN ANY OTHER COUNTRY, JOE BIDEN AND I WOULD NOT BE IN THE SAME PARTY’. IF I’M CHINA (AND RUSSIA) I’M LOOKING TO DIVIDE AND CONQUER THE POLITICAL SYSTEM IN THE USA ALONG RACIAL LINES AND SO FAR IT LOOKS TO BE WORKING FOR THEM!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

SCOTLAND COULD BECOME THE FIRST COUNTRY TO OFFER FREE FEMININE PRODUCTS FOR ALL WOMEN. THE PERIOD PRODUCTS BILL WAS APPROVED BY PARLIAMENT IN SCOTLAND LAST TUESDAY WITH 112 VOTES FOR AND NONE AGAINST. ACCORDING TO THE BILL, TAMPONS AND SANITARY PADS WOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR FREE IN PUBLIC PLACES, YOUTH CLUBS AND PHARMACIES.

SEEMS TO ME THAT WIPING YOUR ASS IS A BASIC HUMAN RIGHT AS WELL AND IF THE LADIES ARE GETTING FREE TAMPONS THEN GUYS SHOULD BE GETTING FREE TOILET PAPER! EXCEPT OF COURSE IF YOU ARE IN THE SCOTTISH ARMY. THIS IS BECAUSE THEY WEAR KILTS SO THEY CAN SHIT ON THE RUN! PERHAPS SOMEWHAT IRONICALLY I PREFER THE FEEL OF SCOTT’S TP ON MY ASS!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

WE ARE OVER DUE FOR ANOTHER ONE OF THESE WHICH WILL LIKELY BE WORSER THAN THE WORST OF THEM ALL THE SPANISH FLU OF THE EARLY 1900’S THAT KILLED 100 MILLION PEOPLE!
WITH OUR BORDERS BEING WIDE OPEN THEIR WILL BE NO STOPPING THE INFLUX OF PANICKED OR INFECTED FOLKS COMING FROM THOSE AREA’S. VERY LIKELY IT WILL BE SOCIAL MEDIA THAT DRIVES THEM TO “SAFER” AREA’S.
THE ZIKA VIRUS WHICH BECAME A LARGE PROBLEM IN SOUTH AMERICA FOUND ITS WAY TO TEXAS AND FLORIDA FROM THOSE WHO HAD ALREADY BEEN INFECTED. DURING THE ELLIS ISLAND DAYS EVERYONE COMING INTO THE COUNTRY WAS EXAMINED BY A DOCTOR. TODAY WE ARE EVEN ALLOWING PEOPLE NOT TO VACCINATE THEIR KIDS WHO HAVE CONTRACTING MEASLES IN RECORD NUMBERS!
I SUPPOSE IF WE ARE GOING TO MAKE SOME LEMONADE FROM ALL OF THIS THEN LETS FACE IT THE PLANET IS OVERPOPULATED ANYWAY…

Perfectly okay to say this as long as you are talking about your own mother! Maybe this is okay to say this about someone else’s Mother if she is actually wearing army boots at the time you say it. But it is never okay to say this about someone else’s mother if they are not or have never worn them at all!
Recently a black person lost their job for using the N-word. Once again perfectly okay if he was referring to his own Mother, it might even be okay for them to say this about another black persons Mother! But as a white person I wouldn’t like him calling my Mother the N-word or even more appropriately calling her the C-word a Cracker!
In a perfect world nobody’s Mother should be wearing army boots! Unless of course they are in the Army. But of course in a perfect world there would be no armies! And nobody should be using the N-word or C-word either!
And that is all I have to say about that!

A DEMMY CODE WORD FOR UNION PAYBACK FOR THIER POLITICAL  CONTRIBUTIONS. NOW IF YOU LIVE IN A STATE LIKE I DO WHERE BOTH BUSINESS AND PEOPLE ARE EXITING IN DROVES YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR A LOT ABOUT SPENDING ON INFRASTRUCTURE. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE GOVERNMENT  IS COMPLETELY CONTROLLED BY THE DEMMY PARTY! HOW ELSE ARE THEY GOING TO FILL THE EMPLOYMENT VOID CREATED BY THEMSELVES?

SORT OF LIKE THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT WHERE 2 WHITE GUYS ARE STANDING THERE WATCHING THE BLACK GUY DO ALL OF THE WORK! THERE IS A PARTICULAR STRETCH OF HIGHWAY IN MY STATE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON FOREVER! GREAT WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT! BUT NOT SO GREAT IF YOU’RE A TAXPAYER! OR TOLL PAYER!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

SO BERNIE WILL CONSIDER WHAT TO DO ABOUT MOVING THE ISRAELI CAPITAL BACK TO TEL AVIV AFTER HE’S ELECTED, WHILE BLOOMBERG THINKS THERE IS NO GOING BACK. BUT NOBODY BOTHERED TO ASK TOM STEYER THE OTHER JEWISH PERSON IN THE DEBATE IN CHARLESTON SC ABOUT THIS.

THE DEM’S ACTIONS ON IMMIGRATION ARE EFFECTIVELY FOR OPEN BORDERS WHICH IS VERY IRONIC GIVEN THE DEMMY’S COMPLETE LACK OF SUPPORT FOR PALESTINIAN RIGHT OF RETURN AND WE ARE LITERALLY TALKING ABOUT ALLOWING PEOPLE TO COME BACK TO THE VERY PLACE THAT THEY WERE BORN!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT!

REALLY NFL THIS IS YOUR HALF TIME SHOW? I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THE GUY THAT MADE THAT DECISION PLAYED FOOTBALL ALSO! TOOK TOO MANY SHOTS TO THE HEAD APPARENTLY! AND LADIES YOU WANT TO BE RESPECTED FOR YOUR TALENTS BUT YOU WANT TO LET IT ALL HANG OUT AS WELL. HARD TO FIGURE IF YOU ARE A TALENTED SINGER OR STRIPPER!

BUT HEY NO COSTUME MALFUNCTIONS HERE UNLESS YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT THE BUTT HOLES. NO LONGER JUST THE BOOB TUBE NOW ITS BOOB AND BUTT TELEVISION!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

 

Presidents and Senators don’t have men killed! If you don’t think so then read both the Pentagon and Afghanistan Papers! Both Bernie and Obama had it wrong when it came to Afghanistan! Not only was it not the right war but Obama would fire General McCrystal who was rightly criticizing the President’s conduct of the war.

Rep Barbara Lee was the only US legislator to vote against giving Bush a blank check for conducting this war. Pelosi would try to talk her out of this vote and Nancy would be eventually rewarded with a profiles in courage award. What is the Kennedy’s definition of courage anyway? Clearly not what Rep Lee stood for as both Teddy and his son Patrick would vote for this war also. All that said Rep Lee is the congress lady from Berkeley CA. A city that just voted to change the sexist name of a manhole cover. Probably didn’t require a-lot of political courage on her part either.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

In 2016 the Republican Party rejected its own career politicians and nominated a non-professional. In 2020 it looks like the Democrats may do the same and nominate a professional independent. The folks on both extremes are rejecting their own career politicians and for good reason. Frankly makes you wonder why anyone pays any attention to either Speaker Pelosi or Senate leader McConnell.

So if the Demmies nominate the bernmiester AND it looks like the Dems might win the both White House and the Senate, while keeping the House, then this would be the only circumstance that would prompt me to vote for Trump. Now for those of you calling for an end to the Electoral College please consider what happened with the 2016 Republican Nomination process and once again with the 2020 Democrat Nomination process. Can you imagine turning our general election process into either one of these?

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

I AM GOING TO SEE THIS BROADWAY SHOW FOR A SECOND TIME AND I MUST SAY IT IS VERY WELL DONE! THAT SAID WHEN IT PREMIERED IN 2011 IT WAS IN MY OPINION A SHOT ACROSS THE BOW OF MITT ROMNEY’S PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. ROMNEY WHO IS MORMON WOULD RUN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012. BETWEEN MOVIES, TV SHOWS AND BROADWAY THE DEMMY’S HAVE A HUGE PR ADVANTAGE.

THE FACT IS YOU WOULD NEVER HAVE SEEN A MUSICAL COMEDY ABOUT ROMAN CATHOLICS LEADING UP TO JFK’S ELECTION IN 1960. GROWING UP CATHOLIC IN THE 60’S I AUDITIONED TO BECOME AN ALTER BOY. BROTHER SEBASTIAN CALLED US ONE AT A TIME INTO A PRIVATE ROOM WHERE HE WAVED HIS HAND AT MY PRIVATE PARTS AND ASKED ME IF EVERYTHING WAS OKAY DOWN THERE!

I CAN SEE A BROADWAY CHORUS LINE OF CATHOLIC MONKS SINGING:

IS EVERYTHING OKAY DOWN THERE?

DO YOU HAVE ANY HAIR DOWN THERE?

COULD I SEE YOUR PAIR DOWN THERE?

CAN I TOUCH YOUR REAR DOWN THERE?

AND THAT IS ALL I AM GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

For the 12^th year in a row the US Post Office has lost money, reporting a loss of $3.9 billion dollars in 2018. This in spite of having a monopoly on the majority of its business! The absolute perfect example of our politician’s inability to run a business!

In the age of the internet and email who needs snail mail? The fact is most of the mail you get today are catalogs and junk mail. Do we really have to deliver this junk on Saturday also? With the country up to its eyeballs in debt is there anyone in Washington who capable of fixing this? If you don’t think so then please don’t vote for any big government socialists in 2020! Thanks…    

Lacking imagination, foresight, or intellectual insight…..

I know people who only watch CNN while others only watch Fox News. These folks are only seeking to have their own particular biases or opinions reinforced! In today’s political environment fewer people on the left and right are open to other opinions. This does not make for a healthy democracy.

As for myself I watch CBS and Fox, read the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, look at the Firing Line and C-Span, peruse National Review and the BBC. If all of these folks are on the same page which admittedly rarely happens I’m  likely getting the straight dope here. Otherwise it is extremely difficult to tell the truth from the partisan fiction being put out by either side!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

IF TRUMP LOSES THE 2020 ELECTION WILL HIS LAST ACTION BE GRANTING A PARDON TO HIMSELF?

GOOD QUESTION BUT CONSIDER THESE:

1. JERRY FORD PARDONS RICHARD NIXON
2. BILL CLINTON PARDONS HIS IDIOT KID BROTHER ROGER
3. RONALD REAGAN PARDONS GEORGE STEINBRENNER
4. RICHARD NIXON PARDONS JIMMY HOFFA
5. JAMES BUCHANAN PARDONS BRIGHAM YOUNG

IF TRUMP DOES NO DOUBT IT WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPREME COURT!  AS SUPREME COURT JUSTICE OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES REMARKED, “WHEN THE IGNORANT ARE TAUGHT TO DOUBT, THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY SAFELY MAY BELIEVE.” A REAL CHALLENGE FOR BOTH MAGA AND BERNIE BROS TYPES!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

ONE OF THE DOWNSIDES OF GOVERNMENT EDUCATION IS THE INDOCRINATION OF FUTURE GENERATIONS TO ACCEPTED HISTORICAL FACTS ABOUT OUR FORMER WHITE GUY LEADERS. NOT THAT IT HAS BEEN ALL BAD BUT JUST NOT AS GOOD AS THE DEEP STATE WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE. HAD THE GOVERNMENT NOT HAD A MONOPLOY ON ELEMENTARY EDUCATION PERHAPS THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT.

THE FACT IS THAT MANY COUNTRIES SEND THEIR KIDS TO OUR COLLEGES BUT OF COURSE THE BETTER ONES ARE ALL PRIVATELY RUN VERSUS THE GOVERNMENT RUN ONES. AS THE LEFT MOVES TO “FREE” STATE COLLEGES THEIR WILL BE FEWER PRIVATE ONES! JUST THINK HOW MUCH BETTER OUR GOVERNMENT EDUCATION WOULD BE IF IT WAS NON GOVERNMENT RUN. UNFORTUNATELY THE LARGEST USA UNION HAS DONE A GREAT JOB OF INDOCRINATING PEOPLE HERE THAT GOVERNMENT EDUCATION WITH A BUILT IN TEACHERS MONOPLOY IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO…

MY YOUNGEST WENT TO THE SAME  PRIVATE HIGH SCHOOL THAT JFK ATTENDED….WAY BETTER!!! AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

If Karl Marx was right about one thing it’s that religion is the opiate of gullible people although increasingly fewer people are addicted to it! In America these addicted folks are on the political right supporting Trump.

If Karl Marx was wrong about one thing it’s that we should all be living in a classless, stateless society. This has been tried and failed in many places but these gullible  folks on the left are supporting Sanders in the hope that it will be tried here as well.

It does beg the question on whether there will be another secession or even a civil war in America. And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

LAST YEAR I WAS CERTAIN THAT THE DEMMY’S WOULD NOMINATE A WOMAN. THEY STILL COULD JUST NOT BETSY OR KAMALA. THEN I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT NOMINATE A GAY PERSON, BUT NOW I’M THINKING THEY WILL NOMINATE THE FIRST JEWISH PERSON FOR PRESIDENT INSTEAD! WILL IT BE MAYOR MIKE OR MAYOR BERNIE?

NOMINATING BERNIE WOULD GUARANTEE TRUMP’S RE-ELECTION. MIKE ON THE OTHER HAND HAS THE BUCKS TO TAKE THE DONALD ON BUT HAS A BIT OF A PROBLEM FRISKING MINORITIES AND NOT WANTING TO LOAN MONEY TO THEM EITHER! WILL THE POLITICALLY CORRECT DEM’S LOOK THE OTHER WAY ON THIS? PROBABLY, BECAUSE AFTER ALL MAYOR BERNIE RAN AS AN INDEPENDENT FOR MAYOR WHILE MAYOR MIKE RAN AS REPUBLICAN FOR MAYOR. SO NEITHER ARE WHAT YOU WOULD EXACTLY CALL LOYAL DEMS…..MAYOR PETE ON THE OTHER HAND ALWAYS RUN FOR MAYOR AS A DEMMY! THE FUTURE GAY JFK!

AND  THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

EVERY AUGUST, THE ANTI-WAR FOLKS ATTEMPT TO REWRITE HISTORY AND APOLOGIZE FOR THE USE OF THE ATOMIC BOMBS DROPPED ON JAPAN. IMAGINE IF YOU WILL THAT GIVE ‘EM HELL HARRY TRUMAN DECIDED INSTEAD TO NOT GO NUCLEAR BUT RATHER LAUNCHED AN INVASION OF JAPAN THAT RESULTED IN MANY MORE AMERICAN DEATHS AND WOUNDED.

I REMEMBER WORKING FOR A US ARMY 8^TH AIR FORCE LEAD NAVIGATOR WHO SPENT A COUPLE OF YEARS BOMBING NAZI’S. IN 1945 HE WAS SLATED TO GO TO JAPAN TO BOMB JAPS, BUT WAS SAVED FROM HAVING TO DO THIS AS A RESULT OF THE ATOMIC BOMBINGS OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI. HE WAS THRILLED BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SURVIVE THE WAR AND GO HOME TO HIS FAMILY WHEN MANY OF HIS PEERS HADN’T! 

LET US HOPE THAT WE NEVER HAVE TO USE THOSE WEAPONS AGAIN BUT LET US NOT APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING TO DO SO TWICE IN ORDER TO BRING ABOUT PEACE! WE MUST REMEMBER THAT WHAT MADE AMERICA GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS SAVING THE WORLD FOR DEMOCRACY! 

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT…

THE WORLD IS BEING DISRUPTED IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS STARTING WITH POWER SHIFTING FROM WEST TO EAST. OVER THE LAST HALF CENTURY THE WORLD’S CLIMATE HAS GONE FROM COLDER TO HOTTER.WE ARE BEING DRIVEN LESS BY ELECTRIC AND MORE BY ELECTRONIC. IN THE WEST YOU HAVE THE RISE OF WOMEN AND THE DECLINE OF RELIGION.

DEMOCRACIES ARE DOMINATED BY SMART TACTICAL DOERS WHO TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX WHILE TALENTED STRATEGIC THINKERS ARE ASKING WHAT BOX TACTICAL FOLKS ARE LOOKING AT!

WELL PAST THE TIME IN THE WEST THAT THESE DOERS STEP BACK AND BEGIN TO INCREASINGLY LISTEN TO THEIR STRATEGIC COUNTERPARTS AS TO WHAT THE BEST LONG TERM STRATEGY MAY BE HERE. THIS IS NO EASY THING TO DO ESPECIALLY IN A DEMOCRACY THAT IS BEING IS DRIVEN BY SOCIAL MEDIA. VERY LIKELY WHY CHINA WILL BE THE NEXT WORLD LEADER AS IT IS NOT BEING DRIVEN BY TACTICAL SOCIAL MEDIA DOERS!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!     

IN THE LATE 1800’S, RESEARCHERS DISCOVERED ADULTS IN THE FARMING COMMUNITY DID NOT READILY ACCEPT NEW AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTS ON UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES, BUT FOUND THAT YOUNG PEOPLE WERE OPEN TO NEW THINKING AND WOULD EXPERIMENT WITH NEW IDEAS AND SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH ADULTS. IN THIS WAY, RURAL YOUTH PROGRAMS INTRODUCED NEW AGRICULTURE TECHNOLOGY TO COMMUNITIES.

THIS RESEARCH WOULD EVENTUALLY LEAD TO THE FOUNDING OF 4H CLUBS ACROSS THE USA! RECENTLY 4H BILLBOARDS HAVE BEGUN SPROUTING UP WITH THE HEADLINE “INSPIRED TO DO”. BUT IF YOU HAVE EVER ATTENDED ONE OF THEIR 4H AGRICULTURAL FAIRS IT IS MORE LIKE INSPIRING KIDS TO DO DO!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

So any number of kids went to college while racking up significant amounts of debt.  Now any number of democratic presidential candidates are attempting to purchase their votes by letting them and their parents who co-signed the loan off the hook for having to pay them back! My three kids worked very hard in college and got themselves some very good jobs and are now paying off their own loans! Good for them!

Why then are their taxes going to have to go up to help pay off the college loans of some of their class mates who worked less hard then they did! Why are the Demmy’s letting these kids parents who co-signed these loans off the hook as well? But hey, don’t worry I’m sure the Red Herring has a plain for that which will require the billionaires paying for all of this and everything else! A free school lunch for all!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Regardless of what RFK thought, his brother would not have won without LBJ as his VEEP. That said Bush 41 should have gone with Bob Dole instead of Danny the Q! McCain should have picked Romney instead of the lady who could see Russia from her house! In 2020 if a lady is not leading the Demmy ticket expect that one will be chosen for VEEP. Would Bernie still pick Betsy? Or would Buttigieg pick Amy for VEEP?

But if Betsy or Amy win the nomination would either pick either like the NYTimes did! That of course would be a complete first for the Presidency and both candidates are married to College Law Professors. In fact all four are lawyers, so no need to appoint an Attorney General! Unless like JFK they chose a family member.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Otherwise known as the Federal Pen or Club Fed. So Jeffery Epstein is under 24 hour suicide watch and successfully does himself in. Sounds like it is more of a Club Fed for the guards than it is for the prisoners. The guards even managed to destroy any video evidence.

But before this happened they couldn’t even protect an old guy by the name of Whitey Bulger from getting murdered. Not that either Epstein or Bulger are any kind of loss. I remember meeting Whitey’s 5th pleading brother when he was President of the Mass. Senate. There’s a scene in The Godfather where Vito Corleone promises to maintain the peace unless his son Michael should be killed by a lightning bolt while sitting in his jail cell. Apparently Don Vitone knew what he was talking about.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

MY WIFE IS A VERY HARD WORKING TACTICAL DOER! BUT THE ONLY TIME WE HAVE BEEN ON THE SAME PAGE ABOUT THE ECONOMY WAS IN 2008 AFTER THE HOUSING BUBBLE EXPLODED! OVER THE NEXT DECADE SHE BECAME INCREASING MORE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT THE ECONOMY WHILE I BECAME INCREASINGLY MORE PESSIMISTIC ABOUT IT!

THE FACT IS THE IMPROVEMENT IN THE US ECONOMY IS BEING DRIVEN BY INCREASING LEVELS OF DEBT. BUT HERE WE ARE WITH SO CALLED FULL EMPLOYMENT AND WE ARE STILL BORROWING MONEY AS OPPOSED TO PAYING IT DOWN. AS THE BOOMERS RETIRE AND DRAIN THE SOCIAL SECURITY TRUST FUND WHILE ALSO DRIVING MEDICARE INTO HIGHER LEVELS OF DEFICIT SPENDING WE WILL SEE WHETHER MY WIFE’S OPTIMISM OR MY PESSIMISM WAS IN FACT CORRECT OVER THE LONGER TERM!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

(CHECK ONE ONLY)

———— MALE ———– FEMALE ———-YES ———- NO

THE SUPREME’S ARE HEARING A CASE INVOLVING THE 1964 CIVIL RIGHTS ACT AND WHETHER OR NOT IT COVERED SEX AS IN MEN AND WOMEN OR SEX AS IN ORIENTATION. THIS IS WHAT IS KNOWN AS A NO BRAINER BECAUSE CLEARLY IN 1964 THERE WERE ONLY TWO BOXES TO CHECK! CONGRESS CAN AND SHOULD MODIFY THIS ACT SO AS TO INCLUDE A YES AND A NO CHECK BOX.

UNFORTUNATELY THIS IS ONE OF THE CASES THAT CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS ALLUDED TO WHEN HE SAID THAT CONGRESS IS NOT DOING ITS JOB AND FORCING THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM TO DO IT FOR THEM! FRANKLY THE MORE WE RELY ON JUDICIAL DICTATES THE LESS DEMOCRATIC WE BECOME AND THAT CAN ONLY END UP ONE WAY EVENTUALLY!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT.

 

ONCE THE DEMMY’S COMPLETE THE CLEAN SWEEP IN 2020 AND CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE AND BOTH HOUSES ON CAPITAL HILL THAT IS WHEN THE “FREE” LUNCHES WILL BEGIN IN EARNEST! THIS OF COURSE WILL ACCELERATE THE FLOW OF IMMIGRANTS INTO THE USA! INCREASINGLY THEY WILL NOT BE REFERRED TO AS UNDOCUMENTED BUT RATHER AS ASYLUM SEEKERS DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE! AND BECAUSE THE USA IS ONE OF THE LARGER CARBON CONTRIBUTORS WE WILL OF COURSE HAVE A MORAL OBLIGATION TO LET THEM IN!

NOW IF YOU BUY INTO THE BETSY HERRING WARREN MANN’S PLAN THAT THIS PROGRAM WILL BE PAID ONLY BY THE BILLIONARIES THAN SHE HAS SOME INDIAN RESERVATION LAND SHE WOULD LIKE TO SELL YOU! UNDERSTAND FOLKS THAT WHEN THE RED HERRING SAYS THAT SHE WILL NOT RAISE TAXES ON THE MIDDLE CLASS, MIDDLE CLASS FOR HER ARE FOLKS MAKING $60,000 DOLLARS OR LESS! SORRY BUT YOU CAN’T OFFER ALL THESE INCREASINGLY WONDERFUL AND EXPENSIVE FREE LUNCHES AND NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER YOUR OWN BORDERS!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

Tesla just made it’s first annual profit in ten years and now has a stock value that makes it more valuable than Ford and GM combined! Combined vehicle sales from GM and Ford equal over 4 million while Tesla shipped less than 10% of this number in 2019! This goes beyond irrational and is more likely insane exuberance! Makes you wonder how many they would have sold without government subsidies. Musk loves businesses that get government money and who can blame him!

That said Tesla is a niche car company and as the major auto guys move into his niche EV market he has nowhere to go but down and maybe out! Both Ford and VW signed an agreement last year to team up on EV’s. No one is going to buy Tesla stock at anywhere near its current price, once they start to see some real competition from them.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Art Buchwald was an American humorist best known for his column in The Washington Post. I remember seeing him in an interview where he said that he did not accept invitations to White House Dinners because he thought it might be an attempt to influence his reporting. Today News reporters can be seen in tuxs or gowns attending State dinners all the time! In that regard Broadcast News was a great movie about the beginning of the decline of responsible reporting in this country.

Reporters are now bigger than the stories they are reporting on. In fact as I write this the State of Connecticut has declared it news anchor Denise D’ascenzo day! Quite sure that both Art Buchwald and Walter Cronkite are looking down at what has become of news business and are shaking their heads in disgust!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Twas the night before Watergate and all thru the white house

Not a creature was stirring not even the head louse.

With a little old chairman, so lively and Devine!

I knew in a moment it must be Sam Ervin(e).

More rapid than eagles his witnesses they came,

And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;

“Now, Haldeman! Now, Erhlichman! Now, Mitchell! and Colson!

On, Dean! On, Liddy! On, Krogh and McCord!

To the top of the Rotunda! To the hall of the columns!

Sam Dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!”

But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,

“Happy impeachment to all, and to all a good-night.”

And that is all I have to say about that!

OK the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) is projecting the budget deficit to reach 31 Trillion dollars by 2030. This would amount to a whopping 98% of US GDP. However none of this debt includes the Green New Deal, Medicare for all, Slave Reparations, or the elimination of College loans. So basically the CBO is just addressing the tip of the ice berg.

While the US hasn’t seen this level of debt since WW2 the difference is that coming off of a War that had bombed our competition (Germany, Japan) back to the Stone Age America was producing 50% of the world GDP and could charge whatever price they wanted for it. At the same time the US Government could tax whatever they wished without doing any short term harm to the economy. Those conditions will not exist the next time around and very likely we will be reaching a 98% debt level well before 2030 given the above!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Should we eliminate the college and go to a popular vote only, then we should expect future Presidential winners could receive even lower percentages than John Quincy Adams!

Just like the Caesars of old, we are hosting our own gladiator super bowl games so the masses can forget about their troubles for a few hours!
I have no issue with that but providing any kind of tax payer money to help fund bigger and fancier stadiums for their billionaire owners and millionaire players is absolutely insane!

On top of all of this Mr. Six Pack is invariably the first to complain about how high his taxes are. They can pay higher taxes or buy season tickets they can’t do both. To quote a WWII US General this is “NUTS”. If you are going to throw any kind of tax payer money at a sports team owner at least require the owner to sign over ownership of the team name to the City or State Government that is giving them the money!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

THE GOVERNOR OF “CALLY FOR KNEE AH” SIGNED INTO LAW A BILL ALLOWING COLLEGE ATHLETES TO EARN ENDORSEMENT MONEY FROM FOLKS LIKE NIKE, UNDER ARMOUR ETC….THE NCAA IS OBJECTING BECAUSE THIS WOULD GIVE CALIFORNIA SCHOOLS A HUGE RECRUITING ADVANTAGE OVER STATES THAT DO NOT ALLOW THIS!

THIS IS JUST THE OPENING GAMBIT TO EVENTUALLY PAYING ALL COLLEGE ATHLETES WHO PLAY SPORTS. THE FACT IS THE MAJORITY OF ENDORSEMENT MONEY WILL FLOW TO MEN’S BASKETBALL AND FOOTBALL SUPER STARS. THIS INEQUITY WILL DRIVE THOSE GETTING THE FUZZY END OF THE LOLLIPOP TO PUSH FOR EVERYONE GETTING “PAY TO PLAY” DOLLARS. THIS IN TURN WILL CREATE AT STATE COLLEGES A NEW CLASS OF HIGHLY PAID STATE EMPLOYEES.

WELL PAST THE TIME TO RECOGNIZE THAT PROFESSIONAL SPORTS DOES NOT BELONG IN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES! AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

So according to the Washington Post “Democracy Dies in Darkness” but when one of their reporters raised the issue of Kobe Bryant having been accused in the past of sexual assault she was suspended by her editor. Apparently the lady reporter who was a victim of a sexual assault as well was receiving death threats so she spent the night in a hotel rather than her own home!

I remember when the LA Times reported that just days after being charged with sexually assaulting a hotel employee in Colorado, Kobe Bryant gave a purple diamond ring worth a reported $4 million to his wife. Frankly when you consider the outpouring of grief at the Staple Center it reminds me of when Elvis died. Sorry folks he was just a basketball player and you all need to get a life!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

The Red Herring has endorsed the Black Foxx for her re-election as Cook County State Attorney. Kim Foxx is the lady who let Jussie Smollet off the hook when he claimed that he was attacked by a couple of white MAGA racists. Turns out it appears that he set up the attack on himself. So don’t expect Betsy Herring Warren Mann to be the 2020 Law and Order candidate! 

Illinois is the second-most corrupt state in the nation, according to the University of Illinois-Chicago. Powerful Illinois lawmakers, Chicago aldermen, local mayors and business interests are involved in what appears to be one of the most wide-ranging federal corruption investigations in state history.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

So an American White Woman culturally appropriated a Mexican immigrant woman’s story and all hell has broken loose! Oprah’s endorsement of the book is problematic for her given the fact that she is neither Mexican nor an immigrant. That said Selma Hayek is both and she endorsed the book even before reading it! Which makes zero sense but that’s what Hollywood folks do.

Shakespeare wrote about a Prince of Denmark and a Jewish Shylock and he was neither! Was he a British Dirtbag or is this entire conversation about cultural appropriation ridiculous? And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

From ice age to no ice age!

From western civilization to eastern civilization

From American leadership to Chinese leadership

From the US Dollar to Digital Currency

From God to God less

From Male leaders to Female leaders

From white people to people of color

From capitalism to socialism

From human workers to AI workers

From National to International

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

Having thoughts, feelings, or motives that are easily perceived. What I like about both Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump is that they are both mostly transparent. Hillary Clinton was anything but transparent! In order for Democracy to work well for the people, politicians need to be honest and upfront with them. Trumps call to drain the swamp very likely works for Sanders but for different reasons. When Hillary says that nobody likes Bernie (and Trump for that matter) she is talking about the professional career politicians who are being rejected by both of them and wishing to keep it business as usual.

As America’s fortunes continue to decline the call for transparency will increase and that can only be good for democracy in the long term! However we will need to de-weaponize the political system by limiting the amount of dollars that can be expended here. Both businesses and unions need to be banned from making political campaign contributions as a start. We should allow only individual voters to only make contributions to political campaigns!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Ok so your last name starts with Butt and your parents must have known that you would grow up being the butt of everyone’s joke right? Like everyone I know has a big butt or dat be in the butt Bob. And if that isn’t enough his parents named him Peter! Really? Was his older brother named Willy? Or was his younger brother named Dick? And on top of all of this he turns out to be gay.

All that said he is clearly a very smart guy who did his turn with the military no less in spite of the all of the above! However at the tender age of 37 he is just not ready for prime time but has a very bright future ahead for himself. Better that he continue to get some more experience playing in the political minor leagues first!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

AFTER THE COLD WAR ENDED I FOUND MYSELF WORKING FOR TWO DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT SUPPLIED PRODUCTS FOR MILITARY APPLICATIONS. I WAS HIRED TO HELP MOVE THEM INTO THE COMMERCIAL PRIVATE SECTOR. ONE OF THESE COMPANIES ON TIME DELIVERY RECORD WAS ONLY 60%. COMING FROM A COMMERCIAL BACKGROUND I UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS WAS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE BUT APPARENTLY TOLERATED BY THEIR MILITARY CUSTOMERS.

THE OTHER COMPANY SUPPLIED A PRODUCT THAT REQUIRED SOME MAINTENANCE OVER TIME BUT THE EXPECTATION WAS THAT, THAT WAS THE CUSTOMERS PROBLEM. IN THE COMMERCIAL MARKET THE CUSTOMER HAD MANY DIFFERENT VENDOR CHOICES (COMPETITION) AND SERVICE WAS A KEY VENDOR ISSUE. THE CULTURE AT BOTH COMPANIES WAS SO INGRAINED THAT THERE WAS NO WAY THEY WERE GOING TO SUCCEED UNLESS THEY MADE WHOLESALE CHANGES TO THERE STAFF. AS A RESULT THEY NEVER SUCCEEDED IN DIVERSIFYING THEMSELVES!

AS WE MOVE TO A SOCIALIST COUNTRY EXPECT THAT THE PRODUCT YOU ARE CURRENTLY RECEIVING FROM THE PRIVATE SECTOR WILL BECOME MORE EXPENSIVE, WITH POORER QUALITY AND SERVICE ONCE IT IS BEING SUPPLIED BY THE US GOVERNMENT!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

M“Well the first thing you know ol Jed’s a millionaire,
The kinfolk said “Jed move away from there”
Said “Californy is the place you ought to be”
So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly
Hills, that is. Swimmin pools, movie stars.”

According to recent polls 40% of Californians now want to live somewhere other than Californy! This is because of taxes and cost of living. As this 40% is mostly non-Hispanic white folk who are greedy and spoiled rotten it makes perfect sense that they would want to move. What remains in California are folks who love AOC. That is when the California Democratic Party becomes the Socialist/Marxist party as opposed to a Center/Conservative Party as AOC currently describes the Party.

Well now it’s time to say good bye to Jed and all his kin’. So they loaded up the truck again and they moved to Notting….. Hill that is. English tea, Royalty.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Hollywood is the “official” Public Relations firm for the Democrats! Given this I should have been weary when the movie critics raved about movie called Knives Out. Half way thru the movie I’m scratching my head as to why the critics gave it such rave reviews. By the final scene I understood why they did!

Turns out the movie is about a bunch of spoiled and greedy white folk and the immigrant nurse taking care of the father of the spoiled and greedy white folk. At the end of the movie the Hispanic nurse is triumphant over the white kids as she inherits the old man’s estate. The title made perfect sense as Hollywood’s knives are clearly out for privileged white people in the USA. But how many of the homeless immigrant folks living on the streets of LA LA Land have been taken in by Hollywood’s spoiled and greedy white actors into their huge mansions?

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

The official newspaper for the democrat party is endorsing two ladies for President, Warren and Klobuchar. The NY Times has endorsed a democrat for President in every election since 1960! Very likely the Times would prefer Warren but she is so far left that even Trump has a shot at beating her so they are playing it safe by endorsing a moderate lady as well! As I’ve already said I’m supporting Amy for President. I don’t trust the Red Herring as far as I can throw her…

The only real concern I have with electing a woman, is electing one who feels she has to out man a man to prove that she is up to the job. For example the first lady Attorney General Janet Reno thought she had to storm the Branch Dividian compound in Waco TX which resulted in 25 kids being killed there. Worst yet this incident inspired Timothy McVeigh blowing up a federal building in Oklahoma killing another 168 people! I’m betting that Betsy is more like Reno than Amy is!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

So the Sussexes wanted their cake and eat it to. But of course Grandma understood that you’re either all in or all out! No way does it work to be a part time Royal. The fact is that everything was okay and then Meg joins the family and wants out of the brothers foundation and Kensington Palace as well.

Sort of reminds you of Harry’s great, great Uncle Edward VIII. He too married a divorced American and got the royal boot himself. Apparently they had even more in common as apparently Eddie was a fan of the Nazi’s and Harry was a fan of  wearing Nazi uniforms. Not sure their choice of wives was wise either but hey you do a lot of crazy things for love.

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

 

I remember a local Mayor being condemned by the Reverend Sharpton and the mainstream media as being a racist for not allowing the city employees to take the MLK holiday off with pay! The reality was that the Mayor did not want to give the city’s union employees another holiday but rather they could chose to take MLK Day or Columbus Day or what have you.

Having worked in the private sector I have never had MLK day as a holiday! As the Grandfather of two grandkids of color would be nice to think that they could at least be offered the choice of taking or not taking this day. Even better if they grew up in world that just saw them for the two beautiful and smart little kids that they are!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Brian Lamb the co-founder of C-SPAN asked a reporter from the USA Today why the media has gotten so partisan and what can be done about it. A few weeks later on C-SPAN, NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell is saying that we have to get back to fact base reporting. So if the media is partisan and not reporting the facts then what exactly are they doing? Yup, Fake News!

The media is upset because they will not be allowed to perform their constitutional duty during the Senate Impeachment of Trump. where is it written in the US Constitution that the press has constitutional rights? More Fake News! When a democratic people can no longer rely on their Free Press for fact based, non-partisan reporting we end up looking just like a Trump relay! That is definitely not going to make America Great Again!

And that is all I am going to say about that!

So Bill Clinton and his mainstream media allies did an incredible job of convincing the voters that it was just about sex! The reality of course was that it was about committing perjury! As President he is the chief law enforcement officer and on top of this a lawyer as well! But as far as I know forensic science has not been able to lift fingerprints off of a penis so they had to rely on a Presidential cum stain instead!

I remember at about this same time Pee Wee Herman was arrested for ejaculating in a public space and thinking that the Oval Office is a public space also! In the end Clinton should have been censured by Congress! Trump who RBG has said is not a lawyer should be censured as well! So as Pee Wee says “Connect the dots, la la la la. Connect the dots, la la la la.”

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Today JFK’s inaugural would go over like a lead balloon with Democrats! Increasingly in this country we are not expecting to do anything for the country including serving in its military but instead it should do more for us! For example you borrow money from the government to finance your college education and both Bernie and Betsy want to forgive this debt in exchange for your voting for them of course.

My wife and I told our 3 kids who have 4 masters degrees and a PhD between them that we would pick up their instate college costs only but any difference was on them. They worked hard got scholarships and grants and they’re in great shape. Why they should have to pick up some else college tab when they agreed to pick up there own is beyond me! But hey that is the way it’s going in this country and in the next ten years a Bernie or Betsy will be throwing that and way more at these folks.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

So according to the Red Herring, Betsy Warren, Feelin’ the Bern, Bernie Sanders does not think a lady can win the Presidency! Bernie who is really a closet Marxist denies ever saying that but in the days of the Me Too movement he has no real standing here! Betsy even refused to shake his hand burning Bernie a second time in the Iowa debate! But let’s face it there can’t be two so called socialist in the race and Bernie is currently in the lead in Iowa so Betsy had to do something!

The fact is when you consider how Pocahontas handled the I’m a Fugawi Indian situation you understand that she is more likely blowing smoke signals up someone’s ass than Sanders is! The lady even claims to be capitalist! The last thing this country needs is another lying lawyer  in the White House! Trump is right Bernie never said it!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Now batting 2 for 2 having lost to both the yellow jacket and the pensioner protesters! No real surprise because once he lost to the yellow jackets he was doomed to lose to the pensioners as well. This is because he not only caved completely to the yellow jackets but had to throw money at them as well in order to get them off the streets of Paris! Once the old folks understood this it just a matter of time before Macron caved again! Cie la vie as they say over there and say goodbye to Emmanuel Jean-Michel Frédéric Macron as he is now fork ready!

The EU’s soft financial underbelly of Greece, Italy and Spain will be followed by France as the debt which is higher than it is in the USA will eventually overwhelm the Union once the EU Boomers are in full flight retirement wise which in France can be as young as 52! This in spite of the fact that EU life expectancy for men is 79 and for women 84. So do the math as a lady starting work at age 20 and retiring at age 52 will work the same number of years that she would collect a pension! Great work if you can get it!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

…opposing or rejecting popular opinion; going against current practice.

Both George Carlin and Ricky Gervais are brilliant contrarians who use humor to reject popular opinion. Unfortunately all too many think that they are just being funny when in fact they are right on the money with their criticism of organized religion and politics. The fact is most people are just sheep and cattle who want to fit in and to be popular so they tend to lap up whatever their church and political party poop out!

If you’re Roman Catholic you are watching the battle between the two popes over celibacy! Quite frankly Jesus Christ wouldn’t recognize the church he founded and this battle just demonstrates how out of touch his church is! The political equivalent of this is the battle between Trump and Sanders…

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

ENGLAND IS A VERY CLASSEST SOCIETY AND YOU EITHER HAVE CLASS OR YOU HAVEN’T. ALL OF THIS IS VERY MUCH DRIVEN BY THE ROYALIST SYSTEM THERE. RANDY ANDY HAS TAKEN HIS LEAVE SO WHY NOT HARRY AND MEG? LETS FACE IT BOTH COME FROM REALLY SCREWED UP FAMILIES AND ARE NOW BECOMING MAJOR ROYALS PAIN IN THE ASSES FOR HER MAJESTY, THE QUEEN!

NOW THAT PRINCESS KATE HAS PUSHED OUT AN HEIR AND 2 SPARES WHY THEN IS HARRY OR FOR THAT MATTER ANDREW EVEN CONSIDERED A MAJOR ROYAL? WELL PAST THE TIME FOR THE UK TO GET THEM ALL OFF THE TAXPAYER TEAT. BETWEEN BREXIT AND BONNIE PRINCE CHARLIE THE UNITED KINGDOM IS GOING TO BECOME THE UN-UNITED KINGDOM PRETTY SOON ANYWAY…

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

Ok white guy boomers not going to happen! First off wasn’t all that great for minorities in the first place. More importantly you spawned the entitled generation who are now asking what the country can do for them! On top of this we left the barn door open on our southern borders overwhelming the legitimate immigration process.

So now you have LA LA land building these so called undocumented and newly minted homeless $600,000 apartments. Tell me again why these folks are coming here in record numbers anyway they can? But hey we are making America great for these folks!

And that is all I’m going to say about that.

SO OBAMA SAYS THAT WOMEN ARE BETTER LEADERS THEN MEN ARE! COMING FROM HIM THAT IS NOT SAYING A HELL OF A LOT! THIS WAS THE GUY WHO TOLD US THAT AFGHANISTAN WAS THE RIGHT WAR! TURNS OUT THE FOLKS WHO WERE RUNNING THIS SO CALLED RIGHT WAR WERE LYING TO THE REST OF US! WHILE THE LEFT LEANING WASHINGTON POST ATTEMPTS TO OFF LOAD SOME OF THIS ON BUSH AND EVEN TRUMP, OBAMA AS COLIN POWELL WOULD SAY IS THE ONE WHO BROKE IT AND OWNS IT!

HOW MANY TIMES DOES AMERICA HAVE TO TRY AND FAIL AT NATION BUILDING? VIETNAM, IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN…. IF WE CAN’T POLICE THE WORLD THEN WE CAN’T SAVE IT EITHER! BUT IN THE END OBAMA IS CORRECT WE DO NEED A WOMAN TO LEAD US! BUT JUST NOT ONE THAT THINKS THEY HAVE TO STRAP ON A SET OF BRASS BALLS FIRST, LIKE HILLARY OR THE RED HERRING!

AMY FOR PRESIDENT!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

General Custer’s aggressive tactics stopped General Lee’s army at Appomattox Courthouse thereby ending the US Civil war. He would employ the same aggressive tactics at Little Big Horn ending with a new hair cut for the ex-general!

IBM’s Watson Junior made the decision to move from mechanical computing to electronic computing although the technology was not invented by IBM. So not a great strategic decision by Junior but rather a very smart tactical one to cover this bet! Future IBM CEO’s would let Bill Gates make the brilliant strategic software move rather than themselves however.

Jack Welch looked to be another brilliant strategic CEO in his effort to move GE into services but 20 years on he is beginning to look to be just another talented and very expensive tactician. When the valley of the blind tactical doers is being disrupted the one eyed strategic thinker is king!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

Love Ricky Gervais …once again he ripped the high and mighty Hollywood folks a new one! Turned off the TV once he finished his monologue at the Golden Globes! Haven’t been watching these shows over the last few years as they are being used as political soapboxes for the show folk! If it isn’t about climate change it about the so called illegal refugee homeless! These ACTORS need to start walking the walk and stop flying on private jets and begin taking in the homeless off the streets of LA and into their Beverly Hills mansions!

A CAMEL IS A HORSE THAT HAS BEEN DESIGNED BY A COMMITTEE. CAMELS WILL GET YOU THERE BUT JUST NOT AS QUICKLY AS A RACE HORSE WILL! IF EVERYONE IS RIDING CAMELS THEN FINE BUT IF YOUR COMPETITOR IS RIDING A HORSE INSTEAD YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO SOMETHING ELSE. THAT IS BECAUSE THE IQ OF A COMMITTEE IS LOWER THAT THE LOWEST IQ OF ANY INDIVIDUAL COMMITTEE MEMBER!

FOR EXAMPLE IF BOOB SIZE OR A BIG HAIR STYLE WAS AN INDICATION OF INTELLIGENCE THEN PATRICIA ARQUETTE OR COLIN KAEPERNECK MIGHT BE WORTH LISTENING TO, BUT ONLY IF THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT ACTING OR FOOTBALL RESPECTIVELY! UNFORTUNATELY THEY MOUTH OFF ABOUT STUFF OTHER THAN THIS AND OUR COLLECTIVE POLITICAL IQ GOES RIGHT DOWN THE TOILET!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

So the Pro Israel and Pro Democrat paper the NY Times had to find a way to thread the needle about the hit on Iran General Soleimani. The issue of course is that this hit would be seen as being very popular with the Israeli’s but not so much by the Demmy’s! Former Senator and Demmy VP candidate Lieberman who is also Jewish was as expected thrilled with this hit as both he and the Times thought this guy had it coming! The Times on the other hand left it to the Trump administration to justify that this cure would be way better than the disease! Will see.

The Donald who has been aggressively courting the Jewish vote recently issued an executive order against The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions of Israel movement on US college campuses who take federal money. Since its creation in 1948 America has effectively given Israel a blank check which the President is exploiting to it greatest possible extent. When the history of American world leadership is written, no doubt this will be seen as significant contributor to the USA’s decline!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Whether it is Bolivia, Venezuela, or Argentina the South American socialists have bankrupted their countries driving their fellow “refugees” to the US border, to get another bite at the socialist apple. Bernie and Betsy are only too happy to accommodate them here! This reminds me of the Mariel boat lift when Castro opened up his jails and looney bins and we took them in also. Not great for the Florida residents who saw murder and robbery rates soar there. Should have sent them all back to good ole Fidel.

But not all immigrants are bad, my own father is a case in point, but guess what they are not all good either as can be seen in some of our sanctuary cities where crime rates are skyrocketing! Not only that but some are bringing measles and other infectious diseases into the country! We need to get control over our border before it kills us either financially or physically or both!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

THE ROARING 1920’S WAS NOT A HAPPY TIME IN A EUROPE THAT HAD BEEN BLED WHITE BY WORLD WAR ONE. IN AMERICA ON THE OTHER HAND IT WAS ONE LONG PARTY AS THE USA BEGAN TO EMERGE AS THE NEXT WORLD LEADER!

THE ROARING 2020’S WILL NOT BE A HAPPY TIME FOR AMERICA AND THE WEST AS BOTH CONTINUE INTO THEIR INCREASING SOCIALISTIC DECLINE! IN THE EAST LEAD BY CHINA, CAPITALISM WILL REIGN SUPREME AND THE DECADE WILL BE ONE LONG HAPPY PARTY FOR THE PARTY!

JUST LIKE THE 1930’S THE 2030’S WILL SEE A GLOBAL DEPRESSION THAT WILL PERMANENTLY SHIFT THE BALANCE OF POWER FROM WEST TO EAST! AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

For years we heard about how great a friend Pakistan was to America and yet they hid Osama Bin Laden in their country for over 6 years! Not only that, but the Pakistani Doctor who help us to find Bin Laden is still in jail there! Doctor Shakil Afridi and family should be living over here instead but the USA needs to do more than just cut aid to Pakistan by just the $33 million dollars that was done!

But hey Pakistan is not the only ‘friend” the USA has in the Middle East as it appears that Iraq is another good one even though they allowed Iranian Lt. General Qassem Suleimani to operate against the USA in Iraq! But I do recall all of the dancing in the street there after the USA deposed Saddam Hussein. Does our State Department have any idea who our REAL friends are or are they all enemies over there?

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

The actor Errol Flynn had a thing for the young ladies, while Charlie Chaplin had a preference for teenage girls! In fact Charlie had such a reputation that he was found guilty of fathering a child that had neither his or its mother’s blood type. He would pay child support until this child became an adult.

The current law of the land is that if someone’s wife has a baby then her husband is automatically considered its father. Just like Chaplin makes no difference even if his DNA proves otherwise!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Paid six bucks for the Sunday NY Times that is half the size of what it used to be! At the end of the day there is no such thing as a FREE press. Today the media environment is so competitive that they will do and say whatever it takes to get or keep subscribers. They have become fact less driven partisans and frankly not worth the paper they are written on.

It is because the mainstream media marketplace has become so competitive that social media is given a much larger voice in it than it deserves or is warranted. This is free speech at it most extreme and as your strengths can become its weakness,  this will be exploited by democracies enemies! Some say it already has….

And that is all I”m going to say about that!

 

 

 

 

 

 

So the biggest strategic error this century was the second invasion of Iraq. W was going to show his pappy how it was supposed to be done. Anyway Biden decided to go along with this and if this isn’t enough the former CIA director and Secretary of Defense Gates has said that Biden got every major foreign policy decision wrong. On top of this he wasn’t even smart enough to keep his idiot son out of the Ukraine!

If Joe does get the nomination the lemmings on the left will vote for him, just like the lemmings on the right will vote for Crazy Donald. The choice comes down to voting for either Laurel or Hardy then. While I will be writing in some else’s name! Unfortunately the lemmings will be deciding who the next President is and if it’s one of the above the choice is either for more craziness or going back to the good old days of just plain old incompetence.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

If you think that Greta Thunberg is angry about climate change wait until till you see how angry she will get when she can’t recharge her cellphone! The greenheads are angry with the lack of political will but the Pols understand that they will pay a much higher price if Greta and her ilk can’t tweet mommy and daddy via mobile phone at the dinner table!

The fact is that when the President of France attempted to implement the Paris Accord the Yellow Jackets ripped the Green Heads a new one. Not only did Macron rescind the tax increase on diesel but he gave the yellow jackets money so they could buy even more diesel! Sorry Greta but you want your cake and have it to by demanding the use of an unproven technology!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS IN FIRST GRADE AND THE TEACHER ANNOUNCED THAT WE WOULD HAVE A NEW CLASSMATE TOMORROW BUT THAT HE WOULD LIKELY NOT BE STAYING WITH US! SHE WAS CORRECT AND I REMEMBER THAT THIS KID LOOKED “DIFFERENT”. MANY YEARS LATER I REALIZED THAT HE SUFFERED FROM FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME. TODAY FETUSES HAVE INCREASINGLY NO LEGAL RIGHTS INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO BE BORN NORMAL.

FRANKLY THRILLED THAT I’M NOT A WOMAN WHO HAS TO CONTEND WITH THESE KINDS OF ISSUES. MORE THAN HAPPY TO ALLOW ALL THE LADIES TO HAVE COMPLETE CONSTITUTIONAL CONTROL OVER THEIR BODIES BUT WHAT ARE THEY THEN GOING TO DO ABOUT THE MOTHERS HARMING THEIR POTENTIAL BABIES? WHAT A HOT MESS! IS FAILURE REALLY AN OPTION LADIES?

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

EVERY AUGUST, THE ANTI-WAR FOLKS ATTEMPT TO REWRITE HISTORY AND APOLOGIZE FOR THE USE OF THE ATOMIC BOMBS DROPPED ON JAPAN. IMAGINE IF YOU WILL THAT GIVE ‘EM HELL HARRY TRUMAN DECIDED INSTEAD TO NOT GO NUCLEAR BUT RATHER LAUNCHED AN INVASION OF JAPAN THAT RESULTED IN MANY MORE AMERICAN DEATHS AND WOUNDED.

I REMEMBER WORKING FOR A US ARMY 8^TH AIR FORCE LEAD NAVIGATOR WHO SPENT A COUPLE OF YEARS BOMBING NAZI’S. IN 1945 HE WAS SLATED TO GO TO JAPAN TO BOMB JAPS, BUT WAS SAVED FROM HAVING TO DO THIS AS A RESULT OF THE ATOMIC BOMBINGS OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI. HE WAS THRILLED BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SURVIVE THE WAR AND GO HOME TO HIS FAMILY WHEN MANY OF HIS PEERS HADN’T! 

LET US HOPE THAT WE NEVER HAVE TO USE THOSE WEAPONS AGAIN BUT LET US NOT APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING TO DO SO TWICE IN ORDER TO BRING ABOUT PEACE! WE MUST REMEMBER THAT WHAT MADE AMERICA GREAT IN THE FIRST PLACE WAS SAVING THE WORLD FOR DEMOCRACY! 

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT…

THE WORLD IS BEING DISRUPTED IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS STARTING WITH POWER SHIFTING FROM WEST TO EAST. OVER THE LAST HALF CENTURY THE WORLD’S CLIMATE HAS GONE FROM COLDER TO HOTTER.WE ARE BEING DRIVEN LESS BY ELECTRIC AND MORE BY ELECTRONIC. IN THE WEST YOU HAVE THE RISE OF WOMEN AND THE DECLINE OF RELIGION.

DEMOCRACIES ARE DOMINATED BY SMART TACTICAL DOERS WHO TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX WHILE TALENTED STRATEGIC THINKERS ARE ASKING WHAT BOX TACTICAL FOLKS ARE LOOKING AT!

WELL PAST THE TIME IN THE WEST THAT THESE DOERS STEP BACK AND BEGIN TO INCREASINGLY LISTEN TO THEIR STRATEGIC COUNTERPARTS AS TO WHAT THE BEST LONG TERM STRATEGY MAY BE HERE. THIS IS NO EASY THING TO DO ESPECIALLY IN A DEMOCRACY THAT IS BEING IS DRIVEN BY SOCIAL MEDIA. VERY LIKELY WHY CHINA WILL BE THE NEXT WORLD LEADER AS IT IS NOT BEING DRIVEN BY TACTICAL SOCIAL MEDIA DOERS!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!     

THREE TIMES I’VE WATCHED MY WIFE GIVE LIFE AT ONE END WHILE SUSTAINING ALL THREE AT HER OTHER END! FRANKLY AN ALL TOO AMAZING FEAT THAT MEN EITHER TAKE FOR GRANTED OR JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT A MIRACLE IT REALLY IS!
IF WE DID WE WOULD BE DOING MORE ABOUT THE CONTINUING PROLIFERATION OF NUCLEAR ARMS AND GLOBAL WARMING! AS A RESULT WE WILL NEED THE BETTER HALF OF OUR SPECIES TO TAKE THE INCREASING LEAD IN PROTECTING BOTH OUR RACE AND OUR PLANET!
WE HAVE MADE SOME LIMITED PROGRESS IN THAT REGARD IN THE WEST BUT THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN SOONER AND FASTER IN THE REST OF THE WORLD. MALE DRIVEN RELIGIONS ARE NOT HELPING THIS CAUSE! AS EINSTEIN ONCE SAID WORLD WAR FOUR WILL BE FOUGHT WITH STICKS AND STONES. ASSUMING THAT IS THAT THE PLANET WILL BE WORTH FIGHTING FOR!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

WHEN AMERICA WAS FOUNDED IT WAS A DEMOCRACY FOR WHITE GUYS ONLY AND A DICTATORSHIP FOR EVERY ONE ELSE! AFTER THE CIVIL WAR THE USA BECAME A DEMOCRACY FOR GUYS ONLY BUT STILL A DICTATORSHIP FOR THE LADIES! AFTER WORLD WAR ONE THE LADIES WOULD GET THE VOTE MAKING FOR A 100% DEMOCRACY ALTHOUGH FAR FROM A PERFECT ONE.

MUCH HAS BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT ISRAEL BEING THE ONLY DEMOCRACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST, BUT WITHOUT THE RIGHT OF RETURN WHICH WAS GRANTED TO THE PALESTINIANS BY THE UN, IT IS EFFECTIVELY A DEMOCRACY FOR JEWS ONLY.

WHILE WE UNDERSTAND THE REASONS FOR THIS, MAKE NO MISTAKE ISRAELS TAKE OVER OF THE GOLAN HEIGHTS, JERUSALEM, AND THE WEST BANK SETTLEMENTS WILL MEAN MORE JEWISH DICTATORSHIP FOR SOME LIVING IN THOSE NEWLY ACQUIRED AREAS.

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

IN THE 1950”S MY PARENTS AND PARENT IN LAWS BOTH BOUGHT HOUSES FOR APPROXIMATELY 25,000 DOLLARS EACH IN THE SAME TOWN. IN THE 1970’S THEY WOULD BOTH SELL THEM FOR APPROXIMATELY $100,000 EACH. TODAY BOTH HOUSE ARE ESTIMATED TO BE WORTH SOMETHING IN THE ORDER OF $750,000 EACH! THE GREATEST GENERATION EXPECTED TO MAKE MONEY ON THEIR HOMES AND THEY DID.

BEFORE THE BUBBLE BURST NEW SINGLE FAMILY HOMES DOMINATED THE MARKET. TODAY IT IS DOMINATED BY MULTI FAMILY HOMES! MY EXPECTATION IS THAT THE BOOMER GENERATION WILL LIKELY BREAK EVEN ON THEIR SINGLE FAMILY HOMES RESALE WISE WHILE THEIR KIDS WILL LIKELY LOSE MONEY ON THEM.

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

A few months ago while walking with my wife in Boston we stopped at a cross walk next to a lady pushing a baby’s carriage. This lady decided to jaywalk when a cab came quickly around a corner. My wife and I waited 30 seconds for the light to change instead. Why would a new mother risk her baby for a thirty second head start?

Last night while driving home at dusk a guy wearing all dark clothing was walking on the wrong side of the road with his back to the traffic. I’ve even seen folks do this with headphones on apparently listening to music while tempting fate. One is dumb and the other is dumber you pick which one!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Recently my wife retired after 25 year career working at a private elementary school first as a teacher and then as assistant head of school. She suffered from a severe form of PTSD otherwise known as Parent, Teacher, Student, Disfunction. For very good reasons the Parents are worried sick about their kids future and as a result failure is no longer a teaching option in our schools in-spite of the fact that some of these kids need a swift academic kick in the butt on occasion!

In an effort to win over the teachers union Joe Biden is promising to eliminate Standardize Testing because they are racist and yet Asian Americans outscored White Americans by 100 points in the 2018 SAT’s. In 2015 Global Testing American Students were only 15th in Reading, 37th in Math and 19th in Science in the world! Not Great….

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Joe Biden- MILLIONAIRE

Beto O’Rourke- MILLIONAIRE

Elizabeth Warren- MILLIONAIRE

Kamala Harris- MILLIONAIRE

Andrew Yang- MILLIONAIRE

Amy Klobuchar- MILLIONAIRE

Bernie Sanders- MILLIONAIRE

Donald Trump-BILLIONAIRE

Mike Bloomberg-BILLIONAIRE

Nancy Pelosi- MILLIONAIRE

Mitch McConnell- MILLIONAIRE

We agree with Warren Buffett that the rich need to pay more in taxes but that it should be retroactive for the last seven years that they underpaid them!

AS THE OLD JOKE GOES WHAT AREN’T FRUITS, AND FLAKES ARE NUTS…

NO SURPRISE THEN THAT THE CITY OF BERKELEY CHANGED THE NAME OF A MAN HOLE TO MAINTENANCE HOLE BECAUSE IT’S POLITICALLY INCORRECT  TO USE MAN.  WHY NOT THEN EVERY OTHER ONE BE CALLED SAY TRANSGENDER HOLE, OR WOMAN HOLE?

BUT WHAT ABOUT MENSTRUATION OR MENOPAUSE? ARE THEY NOW MAINTENANCE STRUATION OR MAINTENANCE PAUSE? AND HOW DO YOU ORDER A MANHATTAN OR ASK FOR MANICURE THERE? PLUS IF A COW CRAPS ANYWHERE IN THE CITY LIMITS IS IT STILL CALLED MANURE?

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

SO WITH OUT A DOUBT PELOSI HAS BEEN THE MOST PARTISAN SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE IN THE LAST FIFTY YEARS! BUT THAT SHOULD BE NO SURPRISE AS THE CONGRESS LADY IS FROM THE MOST LEFT WING CITY IN AMERICA AND THE MOST LEFT WING STATE AS WELL (SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA)! AND AS FORMER SPEAKER TIP O’NEIL ONCE SAID ALL POLITICS IS LOCAL! SO WHILE YOU HAVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS COMING IN DROVES THERE AND LIVING ON THE STREETS, BOTH THE CITY AND THE STATE ARE SEEING LONG TERM BUSINESSES AND CITIZENS LEAVING FOR ELSEWHERE!

FOR THE OTHER 49 STATES, IF YOU WANT TO END UP LOOKING LIKE CALIFORNIA THEN CONTINUE TO VOTE FOR NANCY’S PARTY WHICH IS MOVING LEFTWARD AS FAR AND FAST AS IT CAN! PUSHING 80 IT’S WELL PAST THE TIME THAT SHE PACK IT IN AND WITH AN ESTIMATED WEALTH OF OVER 100 MILLION BUCKS SHE CAN AFFORD TO…

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

SO OBAMA SAYS THAT WOMEN ARE BETTER LEADERS THEN MEN ARE! COMING FROM HIM THAT IS NOT SAYING A HELL OF A LOT! THIS WAS THE GUY WHO TOLD US THAT AFGHANISTAN WAS THE RIGHT WAR! TURNS OUT THE FOLKS WHO WERE RUNNING THIS SO CALLED RIGHT WAR WERE LYING TO THE REST OF US! WHILE THE LEFT LEANING WASHINGTON POST ATTEMPTS TO OFF LOAD SOME OF THIS ON BUSH AND EVEN TRUMP, OBAMA AS COLIN POWELL WOULD SAY IS THE ONE WHO BROKE IT AND OWNS IT!

HOW MANY TIMES DOES AMERICA HAVE TO TRY AND FAIL AT NATION BUILDING? VIETNAM, IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN…. IF WE CAN’T POLICE THE WORLD THEN WE CAN’T SAVE IT EITHER! BUT IN THE END OBAMA IS CORRECT WE DO NEED A WOMAN TO LEAD US! BUT JUST NOT ONE THAT THINKS THEY HAVE TO STRAP ON A SET OF BRASS BALLS FIRST, LIKE HILLARY OR THE RED HERRING!

AMY FOR PRESIDENT!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

So Bill Clinton and his mainstream media allies did an incredible job of convincing the voters that it was just about sex! The reality of course was that it was about committing perjury! As President he is the chief law enforcement officer and on top of this a lawyer as well! But as far as I know forensic science has not been able to lift fingerprints off of a penis so they had to rely on a Presidential cum stain instead!

I remember at about this same time Pee Wee Herman was arrested for ejaculating in a public space and thinking that the Oval Office is a public space also! In the end Clinton should have been censured by Congress! Trump who RBG has said is not a lawyer should be censured as well! So as Pee Wee says “Connect the dots, la la la la. Connect the dots, la la la la.”

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

SO POPE FRANKIE HAS A SLUSH FUND CALLED PETER’S PENCE WHICH IS A  COLLECTION TO PROVIDE THE HOLY FATHER WITH THE FINANCIAL MEANS TO RESPOND TO THOSE WHO ARE SUFFERING AS A RESULT OF WAR, OPPRESSION, NATURAL DISASTER, AND DISEASE. HOWEVER SOME U.S. FAITHFUL CLOSED THEIR WALLETS TO IT WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THAT THE POPE’S GIFT OF A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS FROM PETER’S PENCE WENT TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT’S MARCHING THRU MEXICO UP TO THE USA BORDER.

NOW APPARENTLY 90% OF THE 55 MILLION DOLLARS THAT CATHOLICS POUR INTO IT THIS YEAR IS NOT GOING TO THE POOR AS INTENDED BUT RATHER TO PLUG DEFICITS IN THE VATICAN BUDGET. DOES SEEM TO BE A PATTERN THAT THE CHURCH IS TELLING THEIR FLOCK ONE THING AND DOING SOMETHING ELSE WITH THEIR MOOLAH. THE FAITHFUL SHOULD TAKE DEEP THROATS ADVICE AND START TO  FOLLOW THE MONEY!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

I’VE DECIDED THAT ANY FURTHER POLITICAL CONVERSATIONS I HAVE WITH SOMEONE WILL REQUIRE THEM TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING 2 PART QUESTION CORRECTLY FIRST;

PART A: THE MALE AND FEMALE WINNERS OF THE BOSTON MARATHON BOTH RECEIVE $100 LARGE EVEN THOUGH THE WINNING TIME FOR THE FEMALE IS SLOWER THAN THE NEXT 99 MALE FINISHERS WHO DO NOT GET $100 LARGE. WHY IS THAT EQUAL WORK FOR EQUAL PAY?

PART B: THE MALE AND FEMALE WINNERS OF THE TENNIS US OPEN BOTH RECEIVE THE SAME PRIZE MONEY EVEN THOUGH THE MALE HAS TO WIN 3 OUT OF 5 MATCHES AND THE FEMALE ONLY HAS TO WIN 2 OUT OF 5. WHY IS THAT EQUAL WORK FOR EQUAL PAY?

ANSWER: DON’T FRIGGIN’ WORRY ABOUT IT BECAUSE IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS THE MALE AND FEMALE WINNERS OF THE US OPEN AND BOSTON MARATHON WILL BOTH BE SPORTING PENIS’ ANYWAY! THAT IS JUST HOW BRAINLESS THE POLITICAL CONVERSATION HAS BECOME IN THIS COUNTRY!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

Used to be that polite society shunned both actors and circus people. Today the clowns are no longer performing under the big top but rather holding office in Washington DC instead! As for actors the pendulum has swung completely the other way and everything these folks now poop out, is being viewed as smelling like Chanel #2. The biggest benefactor of all of this are the PT Barnum family of the 21st century; the Kardashian and Jenner clan. In today’s social media environment a sucker is now born every second!

Whether it was JFK* or Bill Clinton there are still no medications to effectively treat this problem. Perhaps somewhat ironically the pharma companies instead focused on developing medications that actually facilitates this dysfunction!
Over the last year or two we have seen Entertainment industry titans lose their jobs while allegedly seeking a temporary treatment for what ails them. Even Roman Catholic Priests are experiencing some of these same issues as well! Until big pharma can find a fix for this, the only sure cure is to perform a radical circumcision otherwise known as a Lorena Bobbitt!

* According to the legend he came a lot!

IN 2008 THE DEMOCRAT PRIMARY WAS ABOUT NOMINATING EITHER THE FIRST WOMAN OR THE FIRST BLACK PERSON FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. AS WE ALL KNOW OPRAH CHOSE THE BLACK PERSON. EIGHT YEARS LATER THEY CHOSE A WOMAN BUT THE STEELE DOSSIER FINANCED BY THE DEMMY’S WASN’T ENOUGH TO STEAL THE 2016 ELECTION!

FAST FORWARD TO THE 2020 ELECTION AND ADAM SHIFTY SHIFF IS SAYING THAT THE DEMS ARE IMPEACHING TRUMP SO THAT HE CAN NOT STEAL ANOTHER ELECTION. ALL OF WHICH BEGS THE QUESTIONS OF WHY THEY ARE NOT IMPEACHING HIM FOR THIS? BUT THE REAL QUESTION FOR THE DEMS IS DO THEY NOMINATE ANOTHER WOMAN OR THE FIRST GAY FOR PRESIDENT. WHO WILL OPRAH PICK?

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

So the youngsters want to fix climate change by using wind and solar energy only. While promising this is not a proven technology storage capacity wise. Therefore too soon to bet the farm on wind and solar but according to the UN substantial progress needs to be made very quickly!

The extreme alternative solution to the above is to greatly reduce the consumption of carbon by greatly reducing the number of people consuming it. However even if that were possible it would take way too long for that to happen unless there was a mass die off due to starvation, a major pandemic or world war. Sorry but if we don’t get climate change right we just might find ourselves facing one or more of these if we want to or not! Let’s hope it doesn’t come to that!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

Trump is is a Bull Elephant in a China Shop in China no less! I assume when he called Justin Trudeau two faced after the NATO meeting he was referring to Justin’s use of black face. But at the end of the day the most important decision a President has to make is to send or not send our boys and ladies to war! In this century the biggest strategic error we made was to send them to Iraq.

Thats why I did not vote for W a second time while not voting for Kerry either. I did not vote for McCain or Clinton either. Also Biden if he is the democrat nominee in 2020 will not be getting my vote as well. As compared to Trump these folks are not exactly passing Chanel #2 either.

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

 

 

 

SENATOR CORY BOOKER WILL INTRODUCE A BILL PROHIBITING RACE-BASED HAIR DISCRIMINATION. THE CREATE A RESPECTFUL AND OPEN WORLD FOR NATURAL HAIR (CROWN) ACT WILL TARGET DISCRIMINATION AGAINST NATURAL OR PROTECTIVE HAIRSTYLES FREQUENTLY ASSOCIATED WITH A PARTICULAR RACE, INCLUDING SPECIFIC HAIR TEXTURES AND STYLES SUCH AS BRAIDS.

WE ASSUME THAT SENATOR BOOKER’S HAIR STYLE OR LACK OF ONE IS NOT COVERED BY THIS LAW BUT WHAT ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE WHO STRAIGHTEN THEIR HAIR IS THIS COVERED? ALSO I WORK IN A BUILDING WHERE A TRANSGENDER PERSON WEARS A BRIGHT PINK OR BRIGHT BLUE WIG TO THE OFFICE. WOULD THIS BE COVERED AS WELL? ROME IS BURNING AND BOOKER IS FIDDLING OVER DREAD LOCKS! JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF HOW ABSURD OUR PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGNS HAVE BECOME!

AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

Ok so your last name starts with Butt and your parents must have known that you would grow up being the butt of everyone’s joke right? Like everyone I know has a big butt or dat be in the butt Bob. And if that isn’t enough his parents named him Peter! Really? Was his older brother named Willy? Or was his younger brother named Dick? And on top of all of this he turns out to be gay.

All that said he is clearly a very smart guy who did his turn with the military no less in spite of the all of the above! However at the tender age of 37 he is just not ready for prime time but has a very bright future ahead for himself. Better that he continue to get some more experience playing in the political minor leagues first!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!

Any future economic collapse in the US will drive the usual guns versus butter political debate. Only this time around we will have a much higher percentage of our population (60%) who will be largely dependent on government largesse. For the military this debate is made even more challenging given its conversion from a citizen soldier to a professional soldier. This disconnection of the armed forces from the vast majority of Americans who did not serve will make it even more likely that any future political decision will favor passing the fat* over passing the ammo!      

*If the voter’s choice comes down to Grandma living on her own (butter) or Grandma living in their basement (guns) then bring on the cholesterol

THE DEMOCRATICALLY CONTROLLED HOUSE IS HEADING TO IMPEACH PRESIDENT TRUMP. THIS WILL PUT THE SENATE REPUBLICANS ON THE SPOT COMING INTO THE 2020 ELECTION. REMOVING A PRESIDENT REQUIRES 67 VOTES WHICH MEANS THAT 22 REPUBLICAN SENATORS MUST JOIN ALL 45 OF THE DEMOCRAT/INDEPENTENT SENATORS TO ACCOMPLISH TRUMP’S REMOVAL.
IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT 22 REPUBLICAN SENATORS ARE UP FOR RELECTION IN 2020! SOME OF THESE FOLKS MAY WELL PREFER GOING INTO THIS ELECTION WITH A PENCE IN CHARGE. AT THE END OF THE DAY IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS WILL ENHANCE THE DEMOCRATS ABILITY TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE SENATE OR PRESIDENCY OR BOTH…

FRANCE IS HAVING A GENERAL STRIKE OVER THEIR 42 DIFFERENT PENSION SCHEMES THAT THE GOVERNMENT WANTS TO “STANDARDIZE”! IN THE USA WE HAVE THE SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM WHICH ESTABLISHES PAYOUT BASED ON WHAT YOU PAY INTO IT. THE S.S. TRUST FUND IS SCHEDULED TO RUN OUT OF MONEY BY 2034. AT THAT TIME BENEFITS WILL BE REDUCED BY 25% TO ALL RETIREE’S. THE SYSTEM WILL THEN BE LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK BUT PAYOUT IS BASED ON THE SAME NUMBERS OF PEOPLE WORKING AND EARNING THE SAME KIND OF DOUGH!

BUT ALONG COMES A GLOBAL DEPRESSION WITH FEWER PEOPLE WORKING AND THOSE THAT ARE, ARE MAKING WAY LESS MOOLAH! THIS IN TURN MEANS THAT SOCIAL SECURITY IS TAKING IN FAR FEWER BUCKS AND PAYING OUT FAR FEWER BUCKS AS WELL! THE FOLKS WHO RELY ON THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY COMPLETELY (AND WHO TEND TO VOTE DEMOCRAT) WILL BE SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER. ONE SHOULD THEN EXPECT THAT PAYOUT WILL NO LONGER BE BASED ON WHAT YOU PAID IN BUT RATHER BASED ON EVERYONE GETTING EQUAL PAYMENTS REGARDLESS!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

WHAT GENERAL WILLIAM TECUMSEH SHERMAN UNDERSTOOD WAS THAT IN A DEMOCRACY YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEFEAT ITS ARMY BUT RATHER JUST DEFEAT ITS VOTERS! HO CHI MINH UNDERSTOOD THIS VERY WELL! JUST DEFEATING TRUMP IN 2020 DOESN’T MEAN THAT THE 60 PLUS MILLION FOLKS WHO VOTED FOR HIM ARE GOING TO JUST DISAPPEAR.

NOR IS TRUMP JUST GOING TO DISAPPEAR EITHER! HE HAS SOME VERY LOYAL FANS AND THEY WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHOW THEIR APPRECIATION BY STAYING AT HIS HOTELS, PLAYING GOLF ON HIS COURSES AND BECOMING MEMBERS AT HIS MAR-A-LAGO CLUB!

AND THAT IS ALL I’M GOING TO SAY ABOUT THAT!

 

 

In California you have record numbers of homeless living in some of their cities. But of course most of these are in fact homeless illegal immigrants who are living on the street or should I say someones car! In fact there are also record numbers of car burglaries happening there as well. However the cops will not prosecute these folks unless the car owner can prove that they had locked their car doors!

After all any reasonably thinking homeless person is going to believe that you left your car door unlocked on purpose, so that they could have a roof over their head and if they should help themselves to the contents of your automobile, well that is just the equivalent of a hotel leaving chocolates on your pillow!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!
