Some Random Thoughts for the Day – October 15, 2020

There is so much to analyze, so much to comment on, so much to write about, I think today I’ll just list bullet points. Please click below to read them…

  • The chaos being sewn by both parties, but particularly and obviously that by the Left, is deliberate. It makes it difficult for many to sort fact from fiction, to sort honesty from dishonesty. Only clear-headed Americans with open minds and critical thinking skills will be able to discern truth from lies.
  • The Left, and I’ve said this before, will stop at NOTHING to defeat Donald Trump and the Republicans this election cycle. Couched in a wide range of statesman-like rhetoric (e.g. Dick Durbin) to outright obnoxious, poisonous and odious verbal diarrhea (e.g. Kamala Harris) the Left is throwing anything and everything at the wall in hopes something will stick.
  • If you look up “unhinged” in the dictionary, Nancy Pelosi’s picture should be next to the definition. Her performance with Wolf Blitzer on CNN simply says it all. You can’t make this stuff up.
  • As evidence of how on the one hand our country is innovative as hell, and on the other how crazy it’s becoming, I offer the fact that Hormel is now offering face masks with the scent of bacon. ‘Nuff said.
  • New bumper sticker: “My expert/scientist is bigger than your expert/scientist”.
  • Seen on a trail in the middle of nowhere in the High Peaks Wilderness of the Adirondacks a couple of weeks ago: a family, all wearing masks, including the family dog!
  • I predict the barons of Wall Street, in a final attempt to knock Trump down, will tank the market just before the election.
  • There is corruption on both sides of the political swamp, but the Clintons, Bidens, and their ilk truly are the varsity, All-American champions. Tell me how a so-called public servant his entire life, Joe Biden, is fabulously wealthy (and don’t say because Jill Biden is a physician… she didn’t make THAT much over the years). Don’t even try to justify the Biden family’s “business interests” that were implicitly, if not explicitly tied to his government positions as less than major conflicts of interest, whether ‘legal’ or not! As for the Clintons…the $100,000 commodities trading scandal was nothing compared to what they extracted and continue to extract from the Clinton Foundation into which influence buyers poured tens of millions of dollars! Again, legal or not, it stinks to high heaven!
  • Amy Comey Barrett is a superstar, and it’s not because of her technically perfect performance before the Senate Judiciary Committee. It’s because she acts, behaves and speaks like a NORMAL PERSON with solid traditional values – a role model if ever there was one.
  • Anybody with half a brain knows how corrupt and biased the so-called mainstream media is. The Twitter and Facebook censorship of the NY Post article on Hunter Biden that was published yesterday underscores just how corrupt and biased Silicon Valley is as well.
  • How any self-respecting citizen of our country could believe the Left’s lies, distortions, deflections, dissembling, denigrating, deceit, whining and histrionics is truly a sad commentary on our society.
  • The Republican outcry against the already evident problems with this election’s ballots may be enough to scare or at least influence ballot counters, poll watchers and voters to be vigilant. Contrary to what’s being trumpeted, I think there’s a good chance we WILL know the outcome of the election the night of November 3rd. The lawsuits and s#$%-show that will inevitably continue (they’ve already started) post November 3rd will not change a clear outcome.
  • Yogi Berra where are you when we need you. Your sayings, “It’s like “déjà vu all over again” and “It ain’t over till it’s over” have never been more apt.
  • Conservatives and Republicans don’t participate in polls and don’t put lawn signs up in Blue and Purple States.
  • “My Doctor is Bigger than Your Doctor” too!
  • School age kids are suffering. The Left doesn’t give a damn…they just want to use their new teaching platform to indoctrinate them through the medium they’re most used to. Teaching has now become a “social media” activity…
  • If you don’t want to be shot by a citizen defending himself or herself or by a law enforcement officer, it’s simple… don’t: a) hang out with the wrong people at the wrong times in the wrong places, b) strictly obey law enforcement’s commands, c) don’t threaten in an attempt to be macho, d) don’t be insolent, condescending…show respect for law enforcement, e) don’t do things that are, simply, ILLEGAL, e.g. riot, loot, destroy property, trespass, physically assault others, carry an unlicensed firearm or other deadly force object and misuse it, etc. etc.!
  • Life begins at conception, period. If you don’t want to have a baby, practice contraception, not infanticide.
  • Labels like socialism, marxism, white supremacy, ‘Karen’, oppressed, victim, racism, white privilege, etc. etc. are empty when not properly and adequately defined and explained. They’re just labels intended to incite positive or negative ‘feelings’ and simply should be ignored!
  • The lines will be long on election day. Try not to be too impatient and plan on going early and staying as long as you have to to make your vote count!

As We Approach the Election

“Theater.” “Illegitimate.” “The Barrett hearings are putting lives at risk.” All phrases and quips that describe the apoplexy of the Left as they see their power evaporating. Have you ever heard such nonsense and seen such histrionics in your lifetime? Boy, they are happy to dish it out, but they sure can’t take it.

Gesticulating Pelosi, who can’t talk without her hands moving and who, almost as sharp as Joe Biden, herself goes blank from time to time, and will do ANYTHING, really, just about anything, to obtain and retain power. We forget she’s a representative of California, of San Francisco, a beautiful city her neglect of which has turned it (literally) into a sewer. Why would anyone in their right mind want her to be a leader of this country?

The Left stays awake at night dreaming up one-liners, slogans and word combinations they think will carry the day. Confirming Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court is “court packing”. What a laugh! Hardball and elections have consequences politics it may be, but it isn’t remotely “court packing”, and they know it!

What’s scary is not that they put out such nonsense, it’s that they’re not stupid and say these things because they know that a huge part of the population BELIEVE what they say. For the Left, through the educational system and Hollywood, to have so brainwashed, so indoctrinated, so dumbed down so many of our citizens that they’d accept this drivel…THAT’S what is scary!

However, as assaulted as we are by the tsunami of BS the Left is disseminating, I still have faith that there are a majority of Americans who see through it all and will reject it November 3rd. Barring fraud, manipulation, outright result-rigging on the part of the Left, they will lose, decisively.

Readers know that I wish we had a statesman for a President, someone like Reagan who could inspire, make us proud. But honestly, Reagan couldn’t win today. The reason is simple. The gutter the Left has pulled us into can only be fought by a bull in a china shop street thug who, despite being inarticulate, despite being an embarrassment at times, nevertheless ‘takes no s…” and throws back more than he gets.

Forget style. Forget diction. Forget rhetoric. Look at the real results. What this administration has been able to achieve in four years notwithstanding the unprecedented and sometimes unbelievable opposition is nothing less than heroic. The Left had shoved us so far down the slippery slope towards failure and ruin it would have been extraordinary if we could have just raised GDP by 1% and grown just modestly. What was done in terms of actually advancing the well-being and prosperity of our country while reversing the descent into globalist, collectivist, victim-celebrating, earth-worshipping, pagan and soul-crushing Leftism has been nothing short of heroic.

Heroes aren’t always the most inspiring figures. Often they emerge from nowhere and do heroic things notwithstanding their inadequacies and shortcomings. That’s what we have now. Only a showman, self-aggrandizing narcissist, combination unfiltered blunderbuss and flamethrower like Trump could have beaten Hillary. Today, only he has the God-given energy and chutzpah to fight and win against the odds and treasonous onslaught he’s faced and is now facing.

I love to hate him. May God bless him and our country as the next few weeks set the course for our future.
