What An Embarassment!

Uncategorized

Having lived a good part of my life overseas, in the Far East as well as Europe, I was appalled by Biden’s performance this week at the G7, NATO and with Putin. Anyone who can look at this man and refer to him as the Leader of the Free World or the Commander in Chief or The Chief Executive of the United States needs extensive therapy, deprogramming or both! My foreign friends thought Trump was many things, including a thug, an inarticulate boob, a narcissist, but they respected him above all for having thrown the BS flag on the leftward creep in America, for unequivocally standing up for the country, and for doing what he promised to do. By contrast, they see Biden as an idiot puppet beholden to the shrill, idiotic voices of the Far Left, a doddering old fool without the slightest bone of conviction in his body for ANYTHING and responsive only to which way the wind is blowing.

Not that I was surprised. He did precisely what so many of us expected: spinelessly double-spoke his way through the meetings with a bulls-eye target on his forehead and a sign hanging around his neck saying “kick me”! Setting aside his cognitive deficit for a moment, which of course didn’t help matters, his inner politician and putrid, almost anti-American ideology spilled out in virtually every way, from body language to the prepared remarks on his 3×5 note cards to his unintelligible off-the-cuff interviews. He proved once again he embodies everything that is vile, corrupt, feckless, condescending, self-serving, narcissistic, opportunistic, pandering and cowardly in the Deep State.

Putin laughed all the way home to Moscow. He got much. We got NOTHING! Biden can’t be so stupid as to think that Putin cares about what his reputation is among Western leaders! This was a talking point obviously written by some of his snowflake and academic, sycophant underlings. To suggest, as Biden did, that the penalty Putin would face would be a diminution of stature was about as weak a threat and about as weak a position as I’ve ever seen an American official, much less the supposed President, put forth!

Add to the list of idiocies his handlers no doubt came up with, Biden gave Putin a list of 16 infrastructure sectors that should be “off limits” for cyber warfare! Are you kidding me? THAT position was so stupid it’s almost not even worth responding to. I was amused, however, that even the MSM talking heads echoed about ten minutes later what I immediately mumbled under my breath when I heard Biden say this, “Moron, shouldn’t cyber-warfare be off limits altogether, or shouldn’t you have said that if Putin doesn’t put a leash on his Russian hackers he might find HIS pipelines and/or grid shut down!” The MSM didn’t put it quite like that but at least they acknowledged the silliness if not outright stupidity of Biden’s gesture.

Wait one second while Biden puts on his aviators…”Mr. President, you sounded very tough out there!” gushes some MSM reporter. Please pass the barf bag I saved from my last airplane trip – I think I’ll use it now.

As I watched/listened to some of the commentary after this trip I found a lot wanting. Commentators continue to walk on eggshells because of Biden’s obvious cognition problem – they are treating him more and more like a victim.

The more I think about his state and the state of affairs of our nation, however, the more I’m hopeful he’ll hang in there at least until after the election next year. It is imperative that we be able to defeat or at least stall his harmful and masochistic agenda. As I noted before and right after the election…the amount of damage he and the Leftist virus (.sic) can do in a couple of years is frightening, and that damage is occurring already. I predict his dementia will cause his virulent frustration and temper to emerge more and more frequently thus exposing the evil that he and his puppet masters are perpetrating. This will ensure victory for The Sane in November 2022. Were the 25th Amendment to be invoked too soon, the installation of a Cackler-in-Chief might prompt the weak-minded sheep to “give her a chance to work with her own kind” and threaten the blow-out victory the Right should have next year.

These are trying times. We are in a cold war such as we have never seen before. Except it’s only cold on one side. On the Left, cities are burning and kinetic war-like destruction is already occurring. Crime is skyrocketing, the multi-headed evil hydra is writhing and seeking to destroy all that is good about our nation. For the moment, our side is remaining cold/cool. How much more of this barely restrained slide down the slippery slope can we or will we take?

Artificial Life

Uncategorized

Tech has created a situation where there is so much INPUT coming at us so quickly it is impossible to grasp what’s really going on. Moreover, its ability to shape, color and produce information has put the power in programmers’ hands of defining what is real and what isn’t. Even the old maxim, “are you going to believe what someone is telling you or are you going to believe your own eyes and ears” is challengeable because both sound and video can be doctored or created out of thin air. In short, CHAOS is the only word to describe what is happening around us. There are moments when we think we’ve got a handle on our lives but it’s an illusion. There is no way that an individual can assimilate and process all the information: good, bad, relevant or not…that’s constantly coming at us. So, unfortunately, we conduct our lives based on an artificial reality consisting, often, of what we’ve heard or seen most recently or what has dominated the Input stream and we have abrogated the course of our civilization to those who control the firehose of so-called information sprayed at us.

Remember that cute film “Short Circuit” in which a friendly robot (“Number 5”) is constantly running around seeking “Input”. At some point he’s gathered and assimilated sufficient Input that he’s become human. (“Number 5 is ALIVE”!!)

Because our human capacity, unlike Number 5, is limited, we have taken to relying on the Internet, that “big database in the sky” to serve as a sort of mental external disk drive, an extension of our Input storage ability. Evidence of this is in plain sight…”Google” is now a verb*. I too look up things that I should know and keep in my head but instead I rely on the “big database in the sky” to provide me with almost instant answers to any question I might have. Never mind that the information may be faulty or misleading. If it LOOKS good, or SOUNDS good, or SEEMS to come from an AUTHORITATIVE SOURCE, I’m likely to accept it and/or use it to draw a conclusion. (Sound the low register buzzer….)

* I don’t use Google as a search engine anymore. Rather, I use Duck Duck Go, but that hasn’t been turned into a verb yet!

I used to think that we could go back to a simpler life: simpler communication, more black and white and less gray, a better understanding of what’s important in life and what’s secondary, tertiary, etc. It ain’t gonna happen. The influence of tech on every facet of our being is here to stay. We’re so overwhelmed with Input we hardly even have the capacity anymore to turn it off, to choose a life course that’s, frankly, more human than android.

So what do we do? How do we go forth in this world of chaos and live traditional lives when Tech is making that almost impossible? We can’t all escape to the country, disconnect from the Cloud and the Grid and become self-sufficient.

We CAN, however, put the brakes on Tech and recapture our humanity while availing ourselves of some of the Good that tech provides.

How do we do that?

We start by throwing out…yes, THROWING OUT things like iWatches and FitBits! We STOP using the boob tube to keep us company while we make dinner or putter around the house. We READ again, books that are classic, that uplift, that help us cope with one another and the world around us in HUMAN ways, not digitally manipulated ones.

If all this sounds like gobbledygook that’s because the impact of CHAOS on our lives prevents us from seeing the forest for the trees (to use a traditional expression)!

What I’m suggesting is that we pause, take a breath, “Just Say NO” to Input, and ask ourselves what’s REALLY important and meaningful in our lives. Is it the latest installment of whatever we’re binge-watching on Netflix or finding a means and place to hang the scribbled “picture” that our child or grandchild has given us? Questions like these are endless, and we hardly ever ask them in this either/or fashion. We should!

And for the sake of our families, our communities, our nation, our humanity, we must “Just Say No” to this Leftist idiocy. Like the brave moms speaking out at school board meetings against Critical Race Theory and masks, wear the ostracization of the sheep like a badge of honor. Regrettably, we are already beginning to learn who our real friends are and some who have joined the sheep will no longer be. Be cordial, be sympathetic to those feeble-minded or brainwashed souls who are unwittingly buying into the “Great Reset” or just following the other lemmings to their destruction. Stand firm for the values we know to be those of winners and benevolent to society as a whole. And filter, filter, filter the onslaught of Input coming at you!

On Kamala Harris

Uncategorized

Steve Feinstein via American Thinker June 10, 2021 so articulately characterized Kamala Harris that I just had to extract from his article. Thank you Steve. Extremely well put.

“With her constant situationally inappropriate hyenalike cackling, her astonishingly unserious, wild proclamations about matters of critical national import (such as her preposterous assertion that “climate change” is a root cause of illegal immigration), and her bizarre narcissistic need for self-promotion as evidenced by her passing out “Kamala Harris” cookies to reporters, it is clear that Harris is nothing more than a hastily cobbled together collection of progressive checked boxes: Person of Color? Check. Female? Check. Victim of discrimination? Check. Radical ideology? Check.

Yet these boxes remain distressingly unchecked:

  • Detailed understanding of economics and taxation
  • Job creator
  • Successful manager in the “take no prisoners” private sector
  • Scientific/technical expertise
  • Awareness of American and world history.
  • Knowledge of military strategy, hardware and weaponry

To be fair, not all great presidents check every single box. But every passable president checks at least a few of them. Harris comes up totally empty.

Exactly when the Democrats will decide to discard Biden like three-day-old bread remains to be seen. Perhaps it will be after the Democrats have passed all the extreme legislation and executive orders they feel they can get away with. That would make some sense: get as many radical policies in place as possible, have them fall on Biden, then get rid of Biden in order to distance and inoculate Harris from Republican attack for those policies in 2024.”

The Global Domination Meme

America, Government, Headlines, History, Media, Politics, Reason, Uncategorized

The “GDA”/”Global Domination Agenda”, the “New World Order”, the Illuminati, “The Great Reset”, “Democratic Socialism”, “Cultural Marxism”…all refer to theories that at the core posit that there is a cabal of hyper-wealthy oligarchs arm-linked with elite political figures bent on subjugating and controlling humankind. In my opinion, there isn’t an organized cabal bent on “global domination” per se but rather an uncoordinated group of “holier than thou” utopian fantasy nuts believing in a state where we “can all just get along,” where there is no poverty, or illness, rancor, jealousy, crime, competing religion…you get the idea.

Not a global, unified plot on the part of these oligarchs, there is nevertheless a common arrogance that stems from wealth and success that gives people like Gates and Soros, etc. the mistaken notion that they know what’s best for society. Even the modestly-living Buffett is not immune.

With a blend of misguided altruism, (i.e. “if we control everything we can make the world a better place for all”) on one hand and a pre-occupation with power for power’s sake (a psychological state of megalomaniacal socio-pathology) on the other, this SPECTRE-like group (see James Bond) don’t meet in secret so much as rub shoulders at the Bilderberg and Davos meetings and arrive at similar conclusions and adopt similar strategies because of the human disposition towards Groupthink.

These are human beings subject to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, at the top of which is Self-Actualization. Once one has so much money that there is nothing more to buy, self-actualization or self-fulfillment comes from talking about and instigating activities and events that affirm their infinite wisdom. It takes the exercise of power and the delusion that one is smarter than 99.9% of the rest of humanity to feed their egos.

Warped, social-paraplegic geeks like Gates, Zuckerberg, Dorsey and Bezos use the platforms handed to them to preach their nonsensical ideas, ideas that would never apply to them of course, because they are “above all that”. In a wonderful display of one-upmanship, they in a sense compete with one another to see who can “do the most” for the peons.

With this wealth, power and influence the oligarchs naturally adopt/assume/gravitate to the role of benevolent dictator. They learned quickly that to try to convince thinking people of the merit of their idiotic ideas is exhausting. So they rapidly default to simply making pronouncements from on high, paying people off to do their bidding, and summon the press to spew their diktats. It’s easier to command than to convince.

Meanwhile the media: attention-craving, narcissistic spotlight hounds that they are, scrambling to climb the ladder, desperate for recognition good or bad, willing to step on anyone or anything that impedes their rise, take every opportunity to hang out with the oligarchs and political celebrities in hopes their glow will reflect upon them. Anything they can say or do which advances the canon preached by the oligarchs and curry their favor they will do, truth and good be damned. They are the chief enablers of these utopian elites.

In the other, non-business sphere (although they frequently mesh together), under the heading of elite political figures, Hitler, Mussolini, Castro, Gaddafi, Hussein (Saddam, not Barack…) (on second thought…maybe Barack as well – but more on that later)…all are examples of politically/militarily successful demagogues who consciously or unconsciously, effectively or de facto assumed the ‘benevolent dictator’ role.

Today, combining the likes of the Gates, Zuckerberg, Dorsey, Bezos, Soros, etc. crowd with megalomaniacal celebrity politicians like Schumer, Pelosi, Sanders, Trudeau, and of course Harris, and their acolytes/puppet-masters like Susan Rice, makes for toxic soup.

I deliberately leave out Biden because he’s really a non-entity anachronism/placeholder without any real power aspirations – just the desire to make it through another day without keeling over. As an aside, it’s his wife who’s the megalomaniac, just like Michelle.

With the oligarchs and the politicians singing the same tune, here we have both pathologies: utopian fantasy and power mega acting in concert. And the woke sheep, equally needful of ego-food, nod and worship them and their ideas. “Hey, they MUST be right, they’re so rich and/or powerful!“

History teaches that this doesn’t end well. Unfortunately, it takes cataclysmic events like wars and revolutions to unseat these eternally destructive ideas and the demagogues who perpetrate them.

A lot of damage gets done in the meantime. Examples: HR 1 – the bill that would institutionalize voter fraud and guarantee Democrat power retention; the so-called “Equality Act” that would shred any remaining gender definition; the pork-laden $1.9 TRILLION (yes, that’s with a T) COVID Relief bill that is unnecessary but doles out favors to democrat constituencies; the gutting of our energy self-sufficiency in genuflection to the god of environmentalism and THE CANCELLATION OF DR. SEUSS for Pete’s sake!

Right now the cauldron is bubbling…the American people KNOW the train is falling off the track. The flak in the air is so thick it’s impossible to navigate the near future without peril. Secession and armed rebellion are topics seriously being discussed, and the globalist oligarchs and politicians contemplate whether they moved too fast/pushed too hard as they stir their martinis and laugh all the way to the bank.

Everyone is afraid to speak of armed rebellion – it’s not politically correct and a direct affront to the Leftist agenda to suggest it. I can’t even count how may times I hear every day some politician or pundit saying something like “Violence in any form is wrong and cannot be tolerated.” All the while, LEFTIST violence and destruction IS ROUTINELY TOLERATED! Could we be headed to armed rebellion?

Is there are strategic plot to subjugate the world’s population à la George Orwell? I think not, but there’s no doubt the megaphones of wokeism and cancel culture are blaring, the hounds of hell have been unleashed, the cancer of utopian leftism is rapidly metastasizing, and the steamrollers of oppression are belching smoke (at least until they make electric ones) from their exhausts.

If the Left keeps this up, it’s just a matter of time before “the common folk” truly rebel against the sick depravity and evil they’re trying to force upon us.

What We Can Do About This

America, Government, Headlines, Politics, Reason, Uncategorized

We ask ourselves, “What can we do to rebel against this Leftist surge without resorting to armed conflict?” There ARE things we can do. We often think, however, that one bit of effort on our part won’t make any difference. Perhaps not, but the one bit of effort on the part of MILLIONS can and will!

The fight begins with the courage to speak out. Someone suggested that at every opportunity, we state boldly, “Democrats are demonstrably, certifiably and manifestly RACIST!” That’s the truth and we need to state that individually and collectively. If millions get on board with the simple phrase: “Democrats are Racists”, all their banal vituperations, stamping of feet an histrionics will demonstrate what we traditionalists already know and further expose them to the somnolent lemmings who follow their hyena leaders.

Second, someone once said, “When your enemy is in the midst of doing something stupid, don’t stand in their way.” The 25th Amendment/Impeachment shenanigans is complete and utter idiocy. The accusation that Trump incited the riot at the Capitol is beyond ridiculous. The talk about censoring Republican congressmen who have voiced support for Section 530 repeal should be ejected from government is childish bullying. The demand that companies refrain from hiring Trump staffers is so over the top that only the most vindictive bottom-feeders would pay 2 cents worth of attention to it. So, let them keep it up and don’t stand in their way. The Democrats look more and more stupid and petulant by the day…no, by the HOUR!

Third, stop supporting Amazon, Facebook, Google, etc. I know it’s tough to shun Amazon. They have done to online shopping what FedEx did to snail mail. The conveniences afforded by Amazon and its ubiquity makes it particularly difficult. But there ARE alternatives. Search online for suppliers by simply looking up what you need. There’s almost always a small company or store who supplies what you’re looking for although you may have to go through several screens of search results to find them. Just today I was able to acquire a vitamin supplement that I “subscribed” on Amazon from a small online supplier. Cost differential…1% more. Time-to-delivery differerential….we’ll see, but I suspect no more than one day more than if I had ordered from Amazon.

And as for the search engines and web browsers, messenger apps, social connectivity and email providers you so commonly use: Google, Chrome, iMessage, FaceTime, Outlook…I strongly urge everyone to move to alternatives. For a search engine, use DuckDuckGo. For a web browser, use DuckDuckGo’s own web browser or Opera. Do NOT use Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, Internet Explorer…these are all owned and operated by Leftists. For messenger app, I’m exploring either Telegram or Signal. I think I’m going to end up with Telegram because I like the anti-tech and anti-government/anti-tyranny attitude of its founders. It also streams content like Twitter does, so it serves a dual purpose. For social connectivity I have liked Parler but until it’s back online after its banishment from Amazon and Apple, all my favorite bloggers/commentators have moved to Telegram or Gab. I like Telegram better because the Gab guys seem “off” somehow, castigating Telegram as they have. As for email, I’m trying to figure out how to move from Outlook, which is part of my Office 365 Suite, to something like Proton mail. And, I’m looking at both LibreOffice and OpenOffice as alternatives to Office 365 anyway.

It’s not going to be comfortable or easy. As foreseen and cunningly planned by our new tech masters, the price of “free” is bondage. We have now so inculcated their products, channels, pipelines, apps, networks, etc. into our lives that it’s going to be difficult to extricate ourselves from their clutches.

But we must!

Again you think, “What difference is it going to make if I, one person, do this?” The answer, once again, is, “Virtually no difference.” But if MILLIONS do this, it’s going to hit these companies right where it hurts…in their wallets. Our journey/climb back up the slippery slope begins with one courageous soul taking the first step up the hill.

And as for government. It’s corrupt. It’s elitist. The judicial system is poisoned, biased and rigged against truth and justice. At every turn, we’re fighting not just Big Tech but City Hall, and City Hall has become predominantly and increasingly populated with Leftist thugs, Leftist morons, megalomaniacs, woke dysfunctional adolescents, limousine liberals to whom the rules don’t apply, or RINO’s who are far more concerned about their own skins than the people whom they’re supposed to serve. We must, nevertheless, attend the grass roots town meetings listening carefully until our temperatures rise sufficiently that we stand up and throw down the BS flag. I’ve seen time and time again that when a courageous patriot stands up and calls out Leftist idiocy and idiots in the public square, a lot of people agree and then also had the courage to stand up and push back on the drivel spewing forth from the Democrats’ and statists’ mouths!

A caution. We need to watch our backs. The Leftists have brainwashed so many otherwise sensible people into thinking the wildest and most ignorant things about our country, about the Trump presidency, about conservatives and constitutionalists and nationalists, that your own employer may very well persecute you in one way or another if you give any indication that you’re not “woke”. There are times to speak up and speak out and times to guardedly remain silent. Mixing religion or politics with work is foolhardy. If you’re constantly being fed Leftist propaganda by your employer, however, it’s time to start looking for another job.

And there WILL be other jobs. They wanted WOKE? They got AWAKE! Politically neutral and meritocratic, traditionally led and managed companies and organizations will not just spring up, but grow rampantly over the next few weeks and months. Keep you eyes open, your ear to the ground, and opportunity will arise from this debacle and current state of Idiocracy.

Hang in there people. Keep your seat belts fastened, your tray tables and seat backs in their full, upright position.

Christmas 2020

America, Family, Politics, Religion, Society & Culture, Uncategorized, Values

Wishing others “Merry Christmas” this year seems misplaced somehow. For millions of people around the world the day is hardly “merry”. While I try very hard to see the bright side and the cup half full, count blessings and prayerfully remain hopeful for the future, I can’t help but feel terribly sad, not for myself so much, but for those who have suffered, are still suffering and who will yet suffer from everything that is happening around and to us.

A couple of months ago I predicted that Trump would win in a landslide and the Left and the evil it embodies would be driven back down into the hell from which it emanated. Now I’m witnessing a tsunami of unleashed, woke hellhounds that forebodes a period of chaos such as has never been seen before in our history.

It truly is a tipping point. The forces of the Left, seemingly uncoordinated but actually, masterfully directed by skilled manipulators sewing fear and creating mass delusion, have successfully brainwashed and conditioned at least half if not more of our population to believe good is evil and evil good.

Our institutions have failed us. Our judicial system, for example, has stuck its head in the sand. I attribute this to human failings of vanity, inertia and self-interest. Judges from Night Court to Supreme Court glare down from their elevated daises, ruling their fiefdoms as if they were omnipotent, demand obeisance, treat all around them with condescension (contempt, really .sic), and rule on the basis of a convoluted, ambiguous set of administrative laws that having nothing to do either with justice or the well-being of the plaintiffs and defendants appearing before them. Often their rulings are arbitrary, sometimes vindictive and sometimes even malevolent. They rarely if ever contemplate the good of society or our country as a whole. Even if they DO rule based on conviction and a desire to do what’s right, they have been so warped by Leftist rot they actually believe that society is better off with gender-neutral bathrooms! Finally, since their own livelihoods depend on what I call “popular justice”, instead of halting the Leftist, metastatic idiocy, they let it slip through their courts, kick the can down the road or punt to a higher court to preserve their income and power.

In healthcare, the “scientists” and doctors are so contradictory that even they don’t know what’s going on with either the Wuhan Virus, the other health problems that have been exacerbated by it and the influence of profit considerations on the medical-industrial complex as a whole. We are left, sadly, to hoping our doctor prescribes the right thing at the right time for our individual needs and circumstances!

In education, we’re losing an entire year of development from pre-K through post-graduate programs. The balkanization/anti-social behavior created by social media has now been institutionalized in “remote learning”, where the vast majority of students are learning little and becoming more and more socially inept. Millions of parents looking over the shoulders of their children as they watch/listen to their teachers on tablets are shocked at what their kids are being taught. Forget the three r’s….it’s woke indoctrination 24/7!

Our military and police forces are demoralized. It’s now accepted that they fight for the man or woman next to them instead of the principles of freedom, democracy or defense of the homeland. Never has the term “enemies from within” been more used or appropriate!

Politics has descended into megalomaniacal warfare – win at all costs, no holds barred, “if we have the power we can make things right” utopian lunacy. To see grownups behave like petulant adolescents, insolent malcontents, snickering brats…it’s disgusting and the Chinese, even the Europeans, are laughing at how puerile, superficial and petty our so-called leaders have become. To watch Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, the Squad, Swalwell, Schiff, Abrams and their ilk, and of course the cream of the crop, Biden and Harris, speak much less appear in public and attempt to say anything useful or uplift in any meaningful way, is to get that burning sensation when a burp comes up one’s gullet just a little.

Projection – the displacement of one’s feelings or actions onto another is the basis for all rhetoric coming out of the mouths of the Left. If we want to know what they’re doing, just listen to what they accuse the Right of! It’s like that childish, “I know you are but what am I,” phrase.

But wait. 

There is the other half or more of the country that doesn’t just sense our way of life slipping away from us, but is angry at what’s happening. Because we care about doing what’s right and acting, for the most part, in a civilized manner, we mutter to ourselves, wave flags in defiance and at our most active, call or write our congressman and women decrying the insanity. But we all sense that something is building…a righteous indignation that is a dam about to burst.

There is a quiet crying out for leadership that will right the ship as it lists in the violent, tossing waves. We’re muzzled, we’re scoffed at, we’re being treated like losers. BUT WE’RE RIGHT, and I don’t just mean politically and socially Right! Something DOES stink and it’s still the majority of Americans who recognize it, not just half or less.

And by leadership I mean, and I’ve said this before, an attractive, articulate, traditional statesman who can not just bludgeon the Left, but make it sexy, cool and desirable to be Right and Good again! He (or she) has to be tough as nails, take no BS from the media, espouse, exude and teach correct principles to the half of the population that is so dumb-downed it doesn’t even recognize it, and lift everyone up whether they no what’s good for them or not!

Perhaps it’s a military leader with civilian persuasion skills. Perhaps it’s another businessman who can navigate the political minefields and persuasively help us reconnect with our traditional roots, the roots that made us the greatest nation on earth. Perhaps, just perhaps, it’s Trump 2.0!

So this Christmas I’m hopeful. I’m certainly prayerful, and I pray there is something that can be done to prevent a Biden/Harris/Puppeteer administration from happening, as well as a takeover of the Senate by the Democrats which truly would spell disaster given their beyond stupid policies, positions, tendencies and downright evil designs. May we turn to the example of the Lord Jesus Christ and turn the other cheek, (while lopping off the head of the Leftist monster that seeks to devour us)… and may we have a happier New Year!  

Stalwart, Steadfast

America, Government, Media, Politics, Society & Culture, Uncategorized, Values

It’s December 7th, the anniversary of Pearl Harbor, and as each day goes by the evidence of election fraud keeps growing and the flak meant to obscure the truth gets thicker. Turn on the vast majority of ‘news’ programs and it’s all about what ‘President-Elect” Biden will do in his first term. “It’s a done deal, stick a fork in it, Trump and the 70+ million who voted for him are just whining, sore losers.” “The people have spoken, Biden will be inaugurated in January.”

To all that I throw the BS flag down on the field and remain steadfast in the following:

a) the election was flawed from the start;

b) There was a deliberate exploitation by the Democrats of the security loopholes to manufacture fraudulent vote totals for Biden,

c) This is still 2020. That means expect the unexpected, and

d) I will not concede this election until Trump does and/or the Supreme Court rules that it’s over.

As Alinsky preached and Cloward and Piven extrapolated, the way to “fundamentally transform” America is to “overwhelm the system”…create so much chaos that the people give up fighting and look to the government to “save” them. Sound kinda like what we see today?

Except these three radicals fundamentally underestimated the Good in the majority of Americans who believe in freedom, self-determination, fairness, truth and other traditional principles that are the underpinning of this great land! Americans who cherish these things will hold the line and defend them against the writhing Evil that is, desperately trying to consume the Good.

The cheating, fraud and manipulation of the vote was so widespread across the country, and particularly in the corrupt strongholds in various key cities, that it threatens to overwhelm the legal, political and societal outcry that is pushing back.Our system of justice has been so weaponized and become so complex and ambiguous that the Democrats seem to be able to swat the challenges aside like flies.

Which of the state legislatures has enough courage to stand and assert power over the appointment of or withholding of electors? Which judges have the moral courage and conviction to call time out on this cataclysmic and monumental travesty of an election? Do 5 or 6 justices of SCOTUS have the wisdom and strength to halt the insanity and right this ship before it goes under? Will we look back at this moment as the moment the forces of Evil overran the Good, or the moment when the Evil onslaught was halted in its tracks and Good prevailed? THIS TRULY IS A TIPPING POINT for our country and western civilization.

The war ebbs and flows, but Truth, Right and Good will ultimately prevail over the Cabal that is so against them.

May the clarion call for truth and freedom remain loud, clear and unwavering and may God bless our nation, our leaders and our institutions to do what is Right!

Game Day

America, Government, Politics, Society & Culture, Uncategorized, Values

First, some context. I live in a solidly blue, suburban town. It is not in a swing state, it’s one of those unquestionably considered Democrat and it has reliably been so for as long as I’ve been around, which is well over half a century. I suspect that most Republican voters cast their ballots not because they believe it will make a difference in the outcome, but out of patriotism and duty.

I’ve just returned from reconning my voting location, a local high school gymnasium. At 20 minutes from the time the polls opened at 6:00 AM there was a line about 50 yards long down the sidewalk emanating from the entrance door. Across from the entrance on a small embankment was a gaggle of Biden-Harris signs. By stark contrast I noted that nowhere to be seen either on that lawn area nor on the way over were there any readily visible Trump-Pence signs. Our local paper and town blogs have had numerous stories about how GOP signs from the top down have been vandalized over the last couple of months. It goes to show just how angry, vile and repugnant the hardened Left is.

The people in line seemed solemn and all were dignified. Strikingly, there was no way to tell who people were going to vote for. No MAGA hats, no bright blue indicators, no pins or descriptors of any kind. There was little animation, little discussion going on…just a quiet, almost reverential queue. Most but not all wore masks, and many of those who did had them down below their noses, their disdain and grudging compliance in full view.

Here’s my take. I surmise that the vast majority of those voters in line were going to vote for Trump-Pence as well as the down-ballot Republicans. And I believe that the number of voters throughout the state who will similarly vote Republican today will be greater than in either 2016 or 2018. It may not make a difference to the outcome for the presidency, but I can’t help but wonder if it will make a difference down-ballot, with gains for the GOP in county-wide and local contests. It just might.

As I turned on the tv upon returning home I was deluged with talking heads, of course, and notably, all commented either directly or indirectly on THE NUMBERS. It struck me that everyone is substantiating their opinion based on reported data of one sort or another. This genuflection to THE NUMBERS is laughable. First, the numbers are frequently, in fact most of the time, WRONG! Sampling is about as inexact a science as there is. It’s based on the faulty and dubious assumption that the sample is representative. Far more often than not, human nature being what it is, it isn’t.

But it sells ad revenue. The more controversy, the more drama, the more conflict, the more blood, the more people are gripped and the more they watch the accident by the side of the road.

As we saw in 2016, what matters is the scoreboard at the end of the game. I’ve taken my omeprazole, have had my two cups of coffee, have turned the sound off on my tv, turned on my Parler, stock market and classical music playlist feeds, and settled in for what will be a long day. About 6:00 PM I’ll start my deep breathing exercises and continue my vigil well, I suspect, into the night. This IS the most consequential election of my lifetime, and may very well determine the course our country will take for the next generation. Whether we are led by pragmatic adults or dysfunctional utopian dreamers will be determined. The adults, I maintain, will prevail.

May God bless America and despite our faults and inadequacies, give us the leadership we need.

Do You Want Biden, or Just Hate Trump?

Uncategorized

On my morning walk today I passed a very nice neighbor couple walking their dog. They have a Biden/Harris sign in their front yard. In exchanging pleasantries, I decided to ask them the above question.

Simply put, they didn’t have an answer! The husband hemmed and hawed. The wife said “their family had always been Democrats”. In short, they were the archetypical example of non-critical thinking, upper middle class SHEEP! I deliberately did NOT offer my opinion, and framed my questions so as not to reveal where I stood on the political spectrum. It was truly breathtaking how they could hold the views they do.

Similarly, it continues to astound me that ANYONE listening to the drivel coming out of the Left’s mouths could possibly want them to take over leadership of this country. I understand how the professional political types can and do spew garbage to advance their aims and seek to enhance their power. What I can’t understand is how dumbed down ordinary, working, seemingly family-oriented Americans have been either brainwashed so effectively or numbed into allowing Leftist dogma to be tolerated!

I take great comfort, however, in the half (or more) of the country who silently, conscientiously, know better, are open-eyed, think about more than themselves, and who despite reservations about style and theatrics, will pull the lever for RIGHT candidates in a few weeks. As I pointed out to another neighbor the other day, one who has no lawn signs but flies both the Stars and Stripes AND the Marine Corps flags on his house, “For all the Biden/Harris signs you see out there, just remember that the vast majority of lawns that do NOT have signs could be, and probably are, part of the Silent Majority.”

He agreed, and added, “I know of a couple of neighbors who have put out Biden/Harris signs just so they won’t be harassed, but who will vote for Trump.”

I pray for my family, my community and my country’s sake that Trump’s win is SO great no amount of flak from the Left will leave any doubt.

I know I’ve said this before but it’s worth repeating: Every election is billed as being “the most consequential” ever. That label notwithstanding, THIS ONE, irrespective of where it falls on the “consequential scale”, is a real tipping point. Either the country really IS divided right down the middle or the true character of America will be revealed with an overwhelming annunciation of where it is and where it wants to go. If it goes, as I believe it will, solidly RIGHT, it will mean we’ve had enough of Leftist nonsense and while our nation will not yet be cancer-free, it will mean we’ll continue the long, tough slog back up the slippery slope the Left has put us on for years and years. If it goes LEFT, may God help our children and grandchildren to quietly preserve what will be an even greater suppression of Good, Traditional Values and help our country survive Armageddon.
