December 2nd, 2015   PRIORITIES

Wednesday - December 2, 2015

 

 

Greetings once again from Jingoistic Climate Change Denying Xenophobes Anonymous Of West Texas.

 

 

 

PRIORITIES:

 

 

Ever since I was a young boy, I had various people tell me that I needed to keep my PRIORITIES straight. Of course the first couple of times I heard this term I simply said, "OK" without even knowing what it meant. Then later on I finally asked someone what it meant and found out that it meant to place the most important items ahead of the less important items. SO, when I was very young I started to think about things which were important to me. I always placed my family and friends at the top of my priority list. And this also included everything pertaining to my family which included the health and safety of all of us. And even very early in my life I placed the well being and safety of our country very high on my list of PRIORITIES.

 

 

Of course in growing up my list of PRIORITIES changed somewhat and most of it had to do with my particular age at the time. BUT the well being of my family and friends always remained at the top along with the well being and safety of our country. After I was grown and got into law enforcement the well being and safety of others also ranked up near the top on my priority list.

 

 

 Up until I reached my mid 60s, as an adult my PRIORITIES tended to change somewhat. At one point in time, I could not wait for football season to begin. Regardless of who was playing on television, I would watch every single game I could. But as I got older, I begin to notice the BEHAVIOR of not only professional athletes but all professional entertainers. And the funny thing is that as our society became more liberal and permissive.... I became a bit less tolerant of suspect behavior of not only athletes and entertainers but politicians and all public figures.

 

 

Then the "ME GENERATION" or as some now refer to them as the "MILLENIALS" descended upon us and I noticed that caring about others was not all that important to these "Self Centered";  "Selfie Taking"; "Permanently Texting" robots. I also realized that I would probably NEVER become very tolerant of this particular generation as my own personal PRIORITIES still remained pretty much as they have for many years.

 

 

NOW, let us look at our Elected Officials, particularly at the Federal Level. At present, while America and most of Western Europe are targets of ISIL/ISIS/RADICAL MUSLIM TERRORISTS, the Obama Administration is much more concerned with "Manmade Global Warming/Climate Change" than they are about the safety of our country. On a daily basis you can listen to OR watch Barack Hussein Obama both here in the United States or in some foreign land speak at length about how "CLIMATE CHANGE" is pretty much the cause of every negative force facing not only our country but the world in general. And, of course, any negative occurrence which cannot be placed at the door of "GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE" (formerly Man Made Global Warming) can be conveniently placed squarely on the shoulders of George Bush. Also we have become accustomed to statements made by the Joint Chiefs as well as various Bureau Heads which pretty much parrot the crap being fed us by Barack Hussein Obama.

 

 

SO, I have pretty much decided that in the area of PRIORITIES, the well being of our nation is pretty far down the list for the Obama Administration. Their own personal "LEGACIES" seem to occupy the top spot for these vermin. It is a sad thing to see the men and women of the United States Military being commanded by some really suspect military commanders and by a Secretary of Defense, Ash Carter, whose name still sounds like the lead villain on Days of Our Lives.

 

 

AND, it does not end with our federal government. Just look at the City of Baltimore; New York City; Chicago; Los Angeles; San Francisco; Houston; Detroit; and the list goes on. And to take it a step further, have a glimpse of damn near any of our major Universities around our nation. Damn near all of them seem to have placed POLITICAL CORRECTNESS at the top of their list of PRIORITIES.

 

 

And, of course, let us not forget how not only the Federal Government, but many states and cities as well have become "SANCTUARIES" for ILLEGAL ALIENS.... Yeah, that's right... ILLEGAL ALIENS.... not "Refugees" or "Undocumented Immigrants".  

 

 

And while I am on the subject of PRIORITIES, how about the News Media?  Truth and Accuracy seem to have completely slipped out of their train of thought. I try to skip around and catch a little of each of the news programs, at least on FOX. I can still at least watch some of the FOX News programs without feeling the urge to throw up. I cannot say the same for MSNBC; CNBC; CNN or many of the others. I have come to the conclusion that Megyn Kelly has decided that her main PRIORITY is to direct her focus on trashing Donald Trump.... who actually does not need any help to look fairly incompetent, at least when considering him for the position of Commander In Chief, (for those of you residing in Baltimore, MD that would be President of the United States).

 

 

We had all better hope that the Republican Party chooses a candidate who can soundly beat Hillary Clinton in 2016 or just stick a fork in us... cause we are DONE.

QUOTES:

 

 

Regarding Campus Unrest By Students:

 

 

"Why then do so many colleges and universities not only tolerate storm trooper tactics on campus but surrender immediately to them? That is just one of a number of questions that are hard to answer."......THOMAS SOWELL

 

 

"Why do parents pay big money, often at a considerable sacrifice, to send their children to places where small groups of other students can disrupt their education and poison the whole atmosphere with obligatory conformity to political correctness?"............. THOMAS SOWELL

 

 

"Why do donors continue to contribute millions of dollars to institutions that have become indoctrination centers, tearing down America, stifling dissent and turning group against group?" ... THOMAS SOWELL

 

 

"If parents and donors start checking out intolerant colleges and universities before deciding where to send their money, the caving in to indoctrinating professors and storm trooper students will no longer be the path of least resistance for academic administrators.".......... THOMAS SOWELL 

 

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

 

Earlier this week I received my monthly statement from one of my credit card companies. I looked at the bill and noticed that there was a $.50/ fifty cent minimum interest charge on this month's bill. I have not paid any credit card interest in well over 20 years. SO, I called the company to see what was going on. I talked to a very polite lady who pointed out an error on last month's bill. When I had written the check for the previous month's bill I had made it out for $32.15.  The lady pointed out that the actual amount of that month's bill was $32.17. SO, I had made a $.02/two cent error in my check.

 

 

To say that I was immediately pissed off would be a mild understatement. And I asked her how soon she could cancel my credit card. She immediately took a different tone and said that she would just remove the interest charge and for me to just include the two cent error on this month's check. THEN, she made the error of telling me that this would just be a ONE TIME ADJUSTMENT on my bill and I immediately returned to way above pissed and informed her that she would not only do it on this bill, but if the same thing happened in the future she would do it again and again if necessary.

 

 

I realize that fifty cents was not going to put me in another tax bracket BUT I had made an accidental two cent error and had no intention of paying 25 times the amount of my error. Of course the company readily agreed that perhaps charging me this interest on a two cent error was a bit excessive.

 

 

I began to wonder just how many people really check their monthly credit card bills and how much money the credit card companies take in each month on these dinky little interest charges?

----------------------------

 

 

My salute to.... Everett Piper, President of Oklahoma Wesleyan University, a Christian Liberal Arts school, for his stance on student complaints of being VICTIMIZED about a university sermon on 1st Corinthians 13 which is a Bible Verse. Keep in mind that this is a Christian University, so the students are likely to hear classes on religious themes which are not permitted in schools supported by tax dollars. According to President Piper, "This is not a daycare center. It is a University". President Piper said that his remarks were directed at culture as a whole and his peers in academia rather than just one student. He feels as if kids today are taught to be "self absorbed and narcissistic and that they go on the defensive when something makes them uncomfortable or hurts their feelings". Seems to me as if a few more College and University Presidents should show a little courage rather than cave in...... like the University of Missouri.

--------------------

 

 

OH! Here's a little something that I am sure many of you missed. DWEEZIL ZAPPA his just released a new album. As you know, DWEEZIL ZAPPA is the son of Frank Zappa, who was a jerk, and the brother of..... now get ready for this..... MOON UNIT ZAPPA. I am sure that most of you are just like me and were waiting anxiously for DWEEZIL to get back on the entertainment train...... OR maybe not.

-------------------

 

 

 

As many of you probably already know, I am not a huge fan of former President Abraham Lincoln but I ran into a quote from President Lincoln which I sure thought was appropriate:

 

 

"From whence shall we expect the approach of danger?  Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never. All the armies of Europe and Asia...could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River or make a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. No, if destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of free men we will live forever or die by suicide."...... ABRAHAM LINCOLN

 

 

AND, this is exactly what these Liberals/Socialists/Democrats/Marxists are attempting to do to our country. Not only was President Lincoln correct in the above statement but most of us can still remember the promise made by Nikita Kruschev in that "We will bury you". Kruschev went on to say that the Communists would take America without firing a shot and that they would do it through our children. AND, they've got a damn good start.

 

 

GOOD GUYS:

 

 

TED CRUZ; TREY GOWDY;  ALLEN WEST;  JON BOLTON;  COL. RALPH PETERS; GEN. JACK KEANE;  DAVID CLARKE, TOM COTTON; MIKE LEE, DR. BEN CARSON

November 25th, 2015    OBSERVATIONS

Wednesday - November 25, 2015

Hello once again from the West Texas Association Of Well Armed Jingoistic Fossil Fuel Burning Xenophobes.

 

 

 

OBSERVATIONS:

 

A little earlier today I finally heard a guy on the radio bring out that the term ISLAMAPHOBIA was a made up word as are most of the types of PHOBIAS which are used to describe all American Conservatives. According to a couple of dictionaries which give the same definition of the word, it is actually described as follows:

 

PHOBIA - an irrational; excessive; unnatural fear of something. Hence- Acrophobia is the unnatural fear of heights;  Hydrophobia is the unnatural fear of water; Xenophobia is the unnatural fear or hatred of foreigners (I always use this description since this is what the Liberals/Democrats/Progressives/Socialists tend to call all conservatives).

 

So, let me tell you right off the bat that while there are some foreigners whom I do not like and do not want for neighbors, I do not harbor an unnatural fear of them. BUT, this particular term is evidently what many European countries had a panic attack over and decided to show the rest of the world that they were really caring, and loving nations by opening their borders for all to enter their countries in huge numbers and not requiring any real scrutiny of these immigrants/refugees/aliens or what ever you have decided to call them. Also, I might add that I detest spinach; Brussels sprout; cabbage; BUT I do not fear them, I simply do not like them. NOW, this does not mean that I dislike or fear ALL VEGETABLES. I just do not like the taste of those three particular veggies. And there are more but those top my list.

 

SO, many of the European countries have had a large number of people from the Middle Eastern Muslim countries enter and make their homes in the European countries and in some instances have allowed these immigrants to live under Sharia Law and in many instances are not required to follow the laws of the European countries. AND, France and Belgium and England and many other European countries seem to have an inordinate number of Muslims living in their countries and in fact taking over many areas to the point of many cities have "NO GO ZONES" which simply means that the law enforcement officers of that particular country have certain, primary Muslim populated areas, where they are PROHIBITED from entering and enforcing the laws of that country.

 

NOW, what amazes me is how most Liberals/Progressives/Democrats/Socialists have completely ignored these locations and actually wonder why cities like Paris, Brussels, and other European capitals are the targets of Islamic Terrorist Attacks. AND, as expected, these same Liberals/Progressives/Democrats/Socialists will be caught completely off guard when these same Terrorist Attacks strike locations in the United States. Already, our federal and many state and local governments have decided to be politically correct and declare their states/cities as SANCTUARIES for not only legal immigrants BUT ILLEGAL ALIENS as well.

And of course anyone who opposes this open border/sanctuary policy are branded as XENOPHOBES. SO BE IT. Apparently a large majority of our country and almost one hundred percent of the Liberals/Progressives/Democrats/Socialists have completely forgotten the attacks on New York City on 9/11/01, AND if you will all think back, the very first thing we were told by our REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT, George W. Bush was that Islam was a Religion of Peace. Then later on in 2009, U.S. Army Major Nadal Hasan murdered 13 and injured over 30 others when he went on a shooting rampage at Ft. Hood, Texas and our Democrat/Socialist President Barack Hussein Obama immediately told us not to jump to conclusions and actually initially classified the Terrorist Attack as..... WORKPLACE VIOLENCE. AND in almost every incident in between those dates and subsequent to them, the American People have been cautioned .... NOT TO JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS and were constantly reminded that Islam is a Religion of Peace.

You see, I have known many people from the Middle East over the past 70 or so years from elementary school to the present. Some of them I have really liked a lot and considered them friends and always received good and fair treatment at their hands. One of the Muslim families whom I know had three sons. I knew those kids from the time of their birth until we moved back to Texas in 2003.  Every time those kids would see me in a grocery store or anywhere out on the street, they would run up to me for a hug and were filled with questions. Every time when their school had some type of event, they always made sure I was invited. Their father told me how much he appreciated the things I had done for his boys. I shall always consider this family as friends until proven otherwise.

 

And during this same time period I have known some people with Middle Eastern backgrounds who were pure turds and were always in the habit of blaming any and all criticism of any of their actions on ANTI-MUSLIM PREJUDICES by Americans who would not try to understand their thought processes. Let me say this.... when someone from another country comes to our country to live, IT IS NOT INCUMBENT UPON US TO CHANGE OUR LIFE STYLES AND CUSTOMS TO SUIT ANOTHER CULTURE!

SO, just as in dealing with people of ALL RACES and ETHNIC and RELIGIOUS backgrounds, I have known people who were good people and some whom I did not think were much good at all. This was based on my observations of their behavior and their actions toward others rather than their skin color or religion. And I believe this to be the feelings of most Americans.

 

BUT in the climate of the world today, I seem to have observed that a great deal of negative action toward all people has some motivation which is Anti-Christian/Anti-Jewish/Anti-American/Anti-White in nature. AND I seem to notice that The President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama is much more likely to jump to the wrong conclusion on most matters than you and I.

So I do not have an UNNATURAL or IRRATIONAL FEAR of people of other races or backgrounds BUT I do recognize the fact that many of those who are causing death and destruction in the name of their religion seem to have an IRRATIONAL HATRED FOR ALL THOSE DIFFERENT FROM THEM.  This is why I do not like the thought of electing ANYONE possession the character of Barack Hussein Obama to the highest office in our country.  I just hope and pray that it is not too late.

QUOTES:

 

"There was a painful irony when France's immediate response to the terrorist attacks in Paris was to close the borders. If they had closed the borders decades ago, they might have avoided this attack."............. THOMAS SOWELL

 

"History may yet record that an even greater stupidity, with even more catastrophic consequences in the long run, was the European nations' decisions to import millions of people with a culture that was not merely very different, but hostile, to the culture, the values and the people of the Western world."... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"And what about us? When, if ever, are we going to close our borders?  When will we even take control of our borders, so that we can decide who, and how many, will be admitted? Certainly not before a new president takes office in January 2017 --- and maybe not even then."............ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"In the question of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution.".. THOMAS JEFFERSON*

** (So much for it being "A LIVING, BREATHING DOCUMENT")

 

"It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters." ........ DANIEL WEBSTER 

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

I watched several speeches given by the world's most intelligent and articulate human and he kept telling us and the rest of the world about this 65 nation coalition who have the handle on ISIS/ISIL and that the tactics in place will continue. Funny, but apparently the odd terrorist plot has manage to escape the keen observation of this, from all appearances, reasonably incompetent coalition. METHINKS, that perhaps this 65 nation coalition has been more interested in maintaining an appearance of political correctness than it has been in DEFEATING ISIS/ISIL.  Why did the attacks and deaths in Paris have to occur in order to light a fire under the asses of the remainder of Europe and the West? All of a sudden, Belgium has come to the realization that perhaps their open border, open arms policies regarding IMMIGRANTS/REFUGEES/ALIENS has fallen somewhat short of common sense standards.

--------------

For the past couple of days we have been subjected to the video of the black male being shot by Chicago Police. On damn near every one of the programs on which I have seen this short video, the announcers; Greta; O'Reilly; and Megyn have all given the viewers warning that this is a "GRAPHIC VIDEO" and may be too INTENSE for some viewers. Then they show the video (without sound of course) and while the camera is to the rear of the black male who was shot, the officer doing the shooting was actually in front of the subject.  I have seen NFL replays which were more intense than this video. Since there was no sound I have no idea of what the dialogue was between the Chicago officer and the subject. And in all probability the officer might have made a bad decision.

BUT, according to Greta and Megyn and some others whom I cannot remember, all said that the guy shot was armed with a knife and was 10 feet away from the officer when the officer shot him. ALL of these expert reporters who have never had someone with a knife attack them said that since the subject was 10 feet away, deadly force was UNNECESSARY.  From every self defense class I have ever attended, we were always told that 25 feet was the minimum distance you should allow someone who was approaching you with a knife. Of course if you already had your weapon drawn you had a bit more time but if your pistol was holstered, a subject armed with a knife could charge you and if he was inside 25 feet away, he could get to you before you could get a shot off.

 

I have investigated a number of cases in which the attacker had a knife and if he was inside that 25 foot envelope, someone got cut. Once again, as I understand it, the subject was shot something like 15 times with many coming after he was down, and perhaps the officer doing the shooting panicked and just kept firing until his firearm was empty. I would also like to point out that on a pistol range where you are in no danger, you can count your shots BUT in a real situation, counting is just not in the cards.

BUT, I doubt seriously if Greta, Megyn, or Bill have ever been in a situation where a turd with a knife was hot on their case. SO, I do not place much credence in their views on the matter.

------------------------------

Well tomorrow is THANKSGIVING and I, for one, have a whole bunch for which to be thankful. Of course my first thanks go to my family and friends. I have been blessed to have a loving family and friends down through the years on whom I could count in any situation. Over the past several years I have lost some of those friends, old and new, and I think of them often.

A few years ago, an old...new friend passed away. His name was Cliff Peiser and he was a retired San Angelo Police Officer. Cliff was in his mid eighties when he left us and I seriously do think of him every single day. I either see something or hear something or read something that reminds me of Cliff. I actually knew his sister and one brother before I ever met Cliff. And they told me that he was full of fun and made jokes about lots of stuff. One of the last times I saw Cliff was at our local H.E.B. grocery store. We stopped and talked and he had a basket full of stuff and I asked him what he was loading up for. And without cracking a smile he said that "Tomorrow is Fidel Castro's birthday and they were planning a big celebration". Of course I knew he was kidding but he would always come up with an answer or statement on damn near any subject. One of his favorites was telling someone that when he was growing up, their family was so poor that their rainbows were black and white.

Besides being a joker, Cliff was also a really big history buff and I had lots of conversations about the history of our area in West Texas. He was also really knowledgeable on World War II and even in his 80s he travelled around the state. He is a guy whom I shall never forget and I only wish I could have known him longer. On the day of his funeral, the procession was a long one following the hearse out near the community of Veribest, Texas where Cliff was laid to rest. The procession slowed down to a crawl and in a few minutes I saw why. The hearse carrying Cliff's casket had broken down just a couple of miles from the cemetery. Of course the procession went on to the cemetery and another hearse had to be dispatched to carry the Cliff's casket to his final resting place. While waiting at the cemetery, some of the old San Angelo PD Officers made the comment that they were not sure that Cliff had not arranged it to have happened that way. And knowing Cliff, I would not be at all surprised.

------------------

I sincerely hope that you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you get to spend some quality time with family and friends.

November 18th, 2015  ATTACKS  /  MISSOURI

 

Wednesday - November 18, 2015

 

Hello again from the Jingoistic Xenophobic Anti-Sharia Pro Second Amendment Anti-Syrian Refugee Accepting Huge Carbon Footprint Leaving Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

 

 

ATTACKS:

 

I would like a show of hands of anyone who is surprised that the Muslim Terrorists first chose France as a location to launch a series of coordinated attacks against Western civilization. For years France along with some other Western European countries have been rolling out the welcome mat to Muslims who have decided that the Middle East, their home land, is just not quite what they had in mind for living conditions.

While I am sorry that so many people were murdered by these terrorists, I am not surprised nor do I expect these attacks to stop in the near future. I fully expect this type of attack against civilian populations to expand to our own country. And, of course, with our current administration kissing up to Muslims all over the world and with the Obama policy of opening our borders even more to accept huge numbers of Syrian refugees, it doesn't appear as if our federal government has any plans to take any serious action against ISIS/ISIL (take your pick).

 

When I see Barack Hussein Obama, the day prior to the Paris attacks tell the world that we have ISIS/ISIL CONTAINED to the point where they are no longer a threat, then I cannot believe that our government has any serious plans to defeat these murdering mutts.

Here are a couple of other areas in which the world's most articulate and intelligent human is...... how shall I put it?  Oh yeah, full of shit!

 

"ISIL/ISIS is NOT Islamic".

 

The Paris attacks were "A SETBACK".

 

Our greatest problem and one which will increase attacks against the West is "GLOBAL WARMING/ CLIMATE CHANGE".

 

"Islam is a RELIGION OF PEACE". Of course the first time I heard this statement made was right after the 9/11 attacks and was said by George W. Bush.

 

"ISIS/ISIL is contained and on the run".

 

AND, who can forget that the Fort Hood shooting spree carried out by Nadal Hasan, a Muslim, on 11/5/09 in which 13 people were killed and over 30 were injured and this incident was immediately classified by President Barack Hussein Obama as 'WORKPLACE VIOLENCE"..... Not TERRORISM mind you...... WORKPLACE VIOLENCE.

 

The Obama administration is additionally claiming that over 13,000,000 jobs have been created under Obama's leadership.

 

I am not completely sure just exactly where the Obama administration gets their job creation figures but I would like to call this little fact to everyone's attention. ALL JOBS CREATED BY THE GOVERNMENT ARE PAID FOR WITH TAX DOLLARS!  And, you have to ask yourself this question:  Where do TAX DOLLARS come from? And of course the answer is............ FROM TAXPAYERS. You and I and millions of others who pay not only for these Government Created Jobs but for all of the Government Give-Away Programs, the list of which grows on a daily basis.

 

Now, getting back to these attacks by Muslim Terrorists. I have watched a number of interviews and videos of so called Muslim-Refugees who have not only taken over many areas in Europe, but have attained majority status in some American cities. Damn near every one of those being interviewed favor SHARIA LAW over Constitutional Law. Also they brag about the fact that they will take over countries in Europe by out-breeding the native Europeans. One idiot bragged that while the German mothers were giving birth to 2 children or less, Muslim women would be giving birth to 7 or 8 children. It doesn't take a someone with a genius I.Q. in mathematics to see that this will give Muslims the controlling numbers they need to do everything they say they want.

 

One report said that the Religion of Islam was already holding majority numbers in Belgium.

 

And now, the Obama administration is favoring admitting thousands of so called Syrian Refugees into the United States. A number of State Governors have stated that their states WILL NOT ACCEPT any of these so called REFUGEES. But, of course we do no know if this will hold up under our federal system which is in the tank for Obama and his band of Merry Men.

 

If the United States does accept thousands of these so called "Syrian Refugees" then we had better get prepared for attacks such as those in France to occur right in our own back yard.  How many Americans must forfeit their lives to Islamic Terrorism before they finally say.... ENOUGH?

 

 

MISSOURI:

 

You are all aware of my feelings toward the University of Missouri and their administration but just as soon as I saw who was appointed as Interim President, it began to fall into place.

 

In case you have not heard, one of Missouri's FIRST BLACK LAW SCHOOL GRADUATES was appointed as the Interim President. According to the newspaper article, Michael Middleton was appointed to... "LEAD  THE FOUR CAMPUS SYSTEM THROUGH A TUMULTUOUS PERIOD OF RACIAL UNREST".  Middleton who is 68 years old has spent 30 years at the University of Missouri as an undergraduate, law student, faculty member and finally, administrator.

 

One news report that I heard via radio was that as a student, Middleton had also been part of black protests at that time.

 

OK, Mr. University President, just what action do you plan to take against the primarily black protestors who interrupted students attempting to study at the University library.

 

And what really got me on TILT were the reports that black University of Missouri students were still upset over "THE FERGUSON INCIDENT". Really?  If black University of Missouri students are still in the dark about what really happened in Ferguson then they should all be booted out of school for being terminally stupid.

 

After all this crap, I listened for a very few minutes last Saturday morning to the pre kickoff program on ESPN Radio in which the idiots appearing on that program saw fit to wander a bit from their mostly idiotic opinions regarding the up-coming football games and agree with the University of Missouri football players who had threatened to boycott both football practice AND their football games until the University President was removed. The crack ESPN crew supported the players and the coach who supported the players.

 

As I understand it, if the University of Missouri football team had boycotted the games, the university would have been fined by some governing body over $1 million dollars. HEY! I know a good place where they could have obtained that fine money...... THE UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC PROGRAMS.

 

The tail is wagging the dog in Missouri.  Also, one of the ESPN idiots threw in the tragic "Little Trayvon Martin" incident. I have also had a really tough time in putting the "Little Trayvon Martin" incident behind me also.  As a matter of fact I have that incident ranked really close to the Soccer Scandal on my importance meter.

 

ANYWAY, The University of Missouri has made it to THE VARMINT LIST.

QUOTES:

 

"With the GLOBAL WARMING zealots predicting catastrophic consequences over the next century, I wonder if anyone has studied how accurate five-day weather forecasts turn out to be."..............THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Why have a national debt ceiling if it doesn't really put a ceiling on the national debt? What the national debt ceiling does is allow Democrats to gain votes by spending the government's money -- and then force Republicans to share responsibility for raising the national debt ceiling, under threat of being blamed for shutting down the government if they don't."............ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"How can anyone consider it to be either logical or moral to force other people to be defenseless because of a theory without any factual evidence?  Yet that is what gun control does."............ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The way the Obama administration's Department of Justice has been used politically to put local police under siege, and to shield the administration's own law-breakers, suggests that the Department of Justice should be taken out of the control of any future administration, and made an independent agency like the Government Accountability Office."........... THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

I receive a monthly pamphlet put out by Ft. Concho which deals with a number of subjects having to do with the Fort and other things affecting the U.S. Cavalry back during the days when Ft. Concho was an actual U.S. Military Fort. They cover food recipes as well as weapons and military life during that time period. Lately every month they have been paying tribute to a past U.S. President. This month's issue covered President Harry S. Truman. Now, I have ALWAYS considered President Harry S. Truman not only the absolute BEST DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT in my lifetime, (1937 - present), but in my top two U.S. PRESIDENTS, right there with Ronald Reagan.

Also, on a couple of the History Channels that I receive they have been showing an abundance of WW II programs and of course when they have programs showing the end of the war it was during President Truman's first term. The article points out that President Truman was the MOST RECENT U.S. President who DID NOT earn a college degree. President Truman had hoped to enter West Point but was turned down due to poor eyesight. So, he enlisted in the Missouri National Guard and he admitted that he memorized the eye chart in order to pass they eye test. He attained the rank of Captain of Battery D, 129th Field Artillery, 60th Brigade, 35th Infantry Division and was deployed to France in WW I.

 

When he was elected Vice-President under Franklin D. Roosevelt he served in this position for 82 days and only met with the President twice during this time period.  He assumed the Presidency on April 12, 1945.  He did not receive briefing on The Manhattan Project until April 25th. During his administration the CIA was created in 1947.

But, of course he is best remembered for authorizing the use of the first two Atomic Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which brought Japan to its knees and resulted in a rapid unconditional surrender ending WW II. He was elected to a second term in the famous.. DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN headline. On election night, my Mom and Dad and I went to The Shrine Circus in Houston at the old Sam Houston Coliseum. At the beginning of the show they had a guy dressed like Tarzan who was brought out in a cage. He broke out of the cage and ran up the beams of the building where he tore down a huge picture of Adolph Hitler and under it revealed either an American Flag or a picture of the President of the United States. 

Of course the entire country was expecting Thomas E. Dewey to win handily over President Truman but after the final votes were counted, Harry S. Truman had won in a close election. The only problem was that the Circus people were so certain that Dewey would win that they had his picture under the picture of Hitler.  We were told the next day that shortly before the performance, painters had to take this huge picture of Thomas E. Dewey and make his hair gray;  get rid of his black mustache; and paint a set of glasses on him so that the picture somewhat resembled President Harry S. Truman.

 

Now here is where Harry S. Truman gets my undying respect. Upon leaving the Presidency, Harry S. Truman only allowed himself to be paid his army pension not wanting to diminish the highest office in the land by taking money like he was on a corporate payroll. He drove himself and his wife back home to Missouri without Secret Service protection.

 

One if my favorite stories about one of my favorite U.S. Presidents was one evening when he was making a speech, he made reference to some action that the opposition wished him to take as.... A BUNCH  OF HORSE MANURE.  One of his aids whispered to Mrs. Truman, "Can't you get him to stop using that particular term?"  To which, Mrs. Truman is said to have replied, "It's taken me twenty years to get him to start using that term."  And that, I can believe.

 

---------------------

 

Last Monday night as I was preparing to watch the Houston Texans get beat by the undefeated Cincinnati Bengals, I was prepared for some local group to butcher the National Anthem. I am happy to say that they did an exceptional job on the National Anthem. A rare occurrence. AND the Houston Texans actually won the game which came as a complete surprise to me.

 

But this version of the National Anthem made up for one which I observed on Sunday and I cannot remember the game but a U.S. Airman completely butchered the National Anthem and this is the first time I had ever seen anyone in any uniform of our U.S. Military screw up The Star Spangled Banner. A real disappointment. Hope this guy got his ass in a crack over the way he performed the Anthem.

November 11th, 2015   CLASS  /  PERCEPTION

Wednesday - November 11, 2015

 

My thanks and prayers go out to all Veterans of the U.S. Military and also to their families. We owe you more than most people can ever know.

 

CLASS:

 

As most of you know, I am a pretty big fan of Denver Bronco Quarterback, Peyton Manning. My respect for this man is based very little on his on field performance, although I do enjoy watching him confuse the opposition. My real opinion of the man is based upon how he acts off the field and some of his activities in his community.

 

I watched a program a few days back regarding the shootings in Chattanooga, TN at the two military recruiting stations by Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez in which five members of the United States Military were killed.

 

The program I watched told of how Peyton Manning took it upon himself not only to call the families of those who were murdered but additionally established the Chattanooga Heroes Fund to help the families of those who died in this terrorist attack.

 

Peyton Manning also visited the families of the military personnel who were killed or wounded and made a visit to the Chattanooga Police Department. While Manning has a home in Denver, he also maintains a home in Chattanooga, TN. And of course we all remember how he was revered as the University of Tennessee All American Quarterback.

 

I also think that win or lose, Peyton Manning shows pure class both prior to and after each game. In one article commending Peyton Manning's actions in visiting the local Police Department, it read: "It is also a classic Manning-type visit.  He showed up, did good for the lives of others, and didn't make any noise about it."

 

That speaks volumes about a young man (at least he is young compared to many of us) who shows genuine concern for the lives and feelings of others.

 

I am looking forward to seeing him break the record for wins and total passing yardage. Couldn't happen to a better person.

 

---------------------

Now that we have shown a man with pure class, let us look at an American University who has pretty much over the past few days shown how low class an organization and some of their attendees and employees can be.

I am, of course, speaking about the University Of Missouri. It is obvious to me that the University President AND Chancellor have both announced their resignation. I personally don't know all of the reasons these two gave but in the long run it was a case of CAVING-IN to pressure from student groups and others who perceive themselves as perpetual VICTIMS.

 

BUT, perhaps their caving-in to pressure from such well known groups as: CONCERNED STUDENT 1950 and THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI FOOTBALL TEAM. I don't know about the rest of you but I got somewhat weary of seeing video after video of black football players swaggering around the campus and threatening to boycott not only football practice but their football games. AND it was also reported that the Missouri Head Coach as well as a great many of the TENURED Professors at the University supported the player walk out. SO, after the President resigned on the spot and the Chancellor resigned effective at the first of the year, it would seem as if some of these so called victims of racial discrimination would be dancing for joy, but that is not the case.  They are still demanding more AND are receiving support from some of the University staff.

 

As I understand it, one of the occurrences which caused the initial football walk-out was that a black student was walking down the street OFF CAMPUS when a pickup truck with white occupants allegedly called him "The dreaded 'N' word" and that the University President did not take some type of immediate action to support this black student. Let me see if I have this straight:  The University President did not take action for some alleged act which took place OFF CAMPUS. I am just wondering how much authority a College President has in addressing issues not related to his College/University?

 

It has become readily apparent that the Athletic Departments... particularly the football programs .... at most American Universities have become way too influential in matters over which they should have little or no control. BUT the brutal truth is that in most major Universities, the football program is their number one source of revenue and when it becomes a matter of dollars and cents, those programs have become way too powerful.

Personally, it suits me fine that the University of Missouri President has resigned. Now the University needs to cave in to a few more special interests and they can kiss it goodbye. And the reports are that black students make up 8% of the student population at the University of Missouri.

 

In short.... the lunatics ARE, in fact, running the asylum.

MORE STUFF:

 

I did not watch the entire Republican Debate last evening but did see quite a bit of it. This morning I heard one report which said that Jeb Bush really hit a home run last night. I personally thought he behaved like a spoiled brat. Then of course there was Donald Trump whom I believe just might be a spoiled brat. John Kasich I perceived as being fairly rude and was constantly butting in on other candidates. Dr. Carson was his usual nice self. Ted Cruz made a mistake and mentioned one of the Federal Departments that he would abolish twice and this morning, the media would have us believe that Senator Cruz is about one I.Q. point over a moron. Marco Rubio came across pretty good as did Rand Paul. Carly Fiorina did not hurt herself any. But what I noticed as being very different from the other so called debates was that the FOX BUSINESS CHANNEL moderators actually acted civil toward the candidates which was a real change from the regular FOX News bunch and of course CNBC or whomever the other networks were who have covered the earlier so called debates. But all in all, I am about debated out and I don't know how many more there are waiting in the wings.

------------------------

On one of the evening FOX News shows, I believe it was Megyn Kelly, we were treated to the political views of former NCAA and NBA star Kareem Abdul Jabbar on Dr. Ben Carson's qualifications to be President of the United States. I sure was happy that Megyn had Jabbar on to give us his views. Anytime I am stumped on a political question I generally try to think of how Kareem Abdul Jabbar would view that particular situation..... well either Kareem Abdul Jabbar OR Larry The Cable Guy. As a matter of fact, I would probably come nearer putting credence in what Larry The Cable Guy had to say over the thoughts of Kareem.

November 4th, 2015  BEHAVIOR  /  POLLS

 

Wednesday - November 4, 2015

 

Hello once more from the West Texas Headquarters For Jingoistic Obstructionist Xenophobic Anti-Gun Free Zone Members Of The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

 

 

 

BEHAVIOR:

Where do I start? This past week end while watching some of the college and NFL games, I could not help but notice just how little intelligence the NFL and the Sports Announcers believe we have. You already know my feelings on how the NFL and the NCAA and damn near every other sports governing bodies have gone to great lengths to make sure that we are subjected to the WORST renditions of The Star Spangled Banner that they can possibly find.

I just happened to turn on the TV Sunday morning and the channel was set on FOX Network and they were playing the Star Spangled Banner just prior to the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Detroit Lions. I found it almost incredible that one would have to travel to Great Britain in order to hear a well played version of The Star Spangled Banner. Then it dawned on me that when Francis Scott Key wrote the words to The Star Spangled Banner that it was during a war between the United States and England and was a war won by the United States.... yet the very country we defeated in two wars seems to have more respect for our American National Anthem than do they plethora of idiot singers who seem to take great pride in screwing up the Anthem. A damn shame.

 

Now, let us look for a moment at the behavior of many of today's professional athletes. No, I am not referring to their antics in the local bar or at some party. I am speaking of their behavior ON THE FIELD OF PLAY. The very first player to "Spike" the football in the end zone after scoring was a wide receiver from the old New York Giants named Homer Jones. However all Jones did was to flick the ball down in the end zone using his wrist more so than a big huge slam like the so called stars of today are prone to do.

And the first defensive lineman I can remember who after a sack would separate himself from the group and go through some dancing gyrations looking like an organ grinder's monkey, was N.Y. Jets defensive lineman Mark Gastineau. And of course we were subjected to the exaggerated "First Down" motion after a catch by the Dallas Cowboys' receiver Michael Irvin. AH, but let us not forget the prancing and dancing and high stepping of "Prime Time"... Deion Sanders who played for the Falcons, 49ers, Ravens, Redskins and the Cowboys.

 

Now it seems as if damn near every player on offense and defense is aware of the location of TV cameras so that when they DO THEIR JOB and make a good run; pass; or tackle, they have an unquenchable thirst to mug before at least one camera. And I am not saying that these hot-dogs are not great athletes. As a matter of fact, Deion Sanders was probably the fastest thing on two legs in the NFL .... maybe ever. As I heard him described once by John Madden, who said... "Deion Sanders has never been IT". He was referring to the kids game of "Tag, You're IT". And he probably was correct. Sanders was also major league baseball player and was quite good.

 

Now, let us look back at the behavior of some of the players of the past. I never once saw Otto Graham act like a fool when he took the Cleveland Browns to the Championship Game..... TEN YEARS IN A ROW. When Jim Brown (whom I still consider to be one of the best running backs EVER); Earl Campbell (whom I consider to be the other best running backs EVER); Barry Sanders, Paul Hornung, Jim Taylor, Raymond Berry, Mike Ditka, Deacon Jones, Doug Atkins, Gino Marchetti, Bob Lilly, Dick Butkus, Chuck Howley, Dick (Night Train) Lane, Chris Hanburger, or Ronnie Lott and the list could go on for pages of great NFL players of the past, either scored a touchdown or made a great tackle did not feel it necessary to jump around like rabid squirrels.

My point is that the BEHAVIOR of these people has gone to hell just as has the BEHAVIOR of public officials (government & education at every level) and public school students in particular. BUT it is not too hard to figure out when you see how the parents of many of these people, particularly students, conduct themselves.

 

It is fairly obvious that the DISCIPLINE of people in the workplace and the bastions of education is practically NON-EXISTENT. School officials, at least in the public sector, have little or no control over the students. Coaches at practically every level are able to provide the DISCIPLINE necessary for successful team sports. Of course at some of the high school levels there are some exceptions but damn little at the University or Professional levels. Therefore the BEHAVIOR of their players leaves much to be desired. And this is one of the main reasons why I have cut way back on watching College and Professional Sports. I still enjoy watching the New England Patriots; the Denver Broncos; the New York Giants; and a few more NFL Teams but this is due to the fact that there is more discipline exercised by the coaches and players themselves. As you already know, I like the coaching style of Bill Belichick, Tom Coughlin, and Gary Kubiak. I also like the style of their respective quarterbacks...although some of the other players feel obligated to act like fools on occasion.

 

I hesitate to even hazard a guess as to what types of BEHAVIOR will be acceptable ten years down the road. AND the BEHAVIOR which at one time was UNACCEPTABLE is now becoming not only acceptable but desired in many circles.

 

And let us not forget that the present Obama Administration keeps telling us that our country has a "GUN PROBLEM". While I contend that it is not a gun problem but rather a BEHAVIORAL problem. Obama and his followers have decided to place the blame on the firearm rather than the actions of the person wielding the firearm. While most sane thinking Americans realize that it is the Decisions and the Actions .... or THE BEHAVIOR... of the individual.

 

And, of course let us not give a pass to the BEHAVIOR of the people who occupy the Executive; the Legislative; and the Judicial branches of our governments, at every level.

 

If the American Voters are willing to accept the BEHAVIOR of their elected officials as it appears they now are ready to do, then our Republic will not survive. Please take time to just read some of the words written by George Washington; John Adams; Thomas Jefferson; Patrick Henry; James Madison; Thomas Paine; Benjamin Franklin; and some of the other Founders Of Our Country and decide if the BEHAVIOR of today's elected officials measures up to theirs. I think NOT.

 

POLLS:

 

I have not paid any attention to these so called "National Polls" in quite some time. I am not sure who controls them but I know from personal experience that when some pollster calls me on the telephone, if I suspect it is one of those bogus polls then my answers given to them are FALSE. There are a few which I feel are legitimate that I will be truthful with. BUT, the most insulting polls are those which are no more than disguised requests for money to be donated to whatever organization wastes postage in mailing them to my home or post office box.

Yesterday was election day for many states for state and local offices and State Constitutional Amendments as well as is the case in our city, changes in the City Charter. Our city is one of the last remaining cities which has the City Police Chief as an elected position. I have lived in San Angelo for about 12 years and I believe this is the THIRD time that I have voted in a City Charter Change request by our city government which is attempting to change from an Elected Police Chief to an Appointed Police Chief. This change was defeated by something like 73% of the voters voting AGAINST the change. I spoke with some local folks who said that this was actually the 14th time when this change has been put up to a vote by the citizens. Now, I don't know about y'all, but a measure which was defeated by 73% seems pretty definite and should not come up again for a long time.

AH, but one of the polls in the election for Governor of the State of Kentucky shot the poll predictions all to hell. The polls were predicting a victory for Democrat candidate Jack Conway by 5, V, FIVE, CINCO, points .... BUT..... when the actual votes were counted, the Republican candidate, Matt Bevin, WON the election by 9, IX, NINE, NUEVE, points. So much for the polls. Just keep in mind that a great majority of these political polls are controlled by folks inside "The Beltway" and as we already know, they are in the tank for someone or something which the American people find unpleasant at the very least.

 

BUT, of course, perhaps we had better wait for some of the news or talk programs this evening and just hope and pray that Karl Rove will be there with his chalk board to explain to we mere mortals just exactly what it all means. Oh, yes, I forgot to mention that in Kentucky, Matt Bevin was not only a Republican but also a TEA Party favorite.

QUOTES:

 

"A recent, widely publicized incident in which a policeman was called to a school classroom to deal with a disruptive student has provoked all sorts of comments on whether the policeman used excessive force. What has received far less attention, though it is a far larger question, with more sweeping implications, is the role of disruptive students in schools."............ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Critics of charter schools have often pointed to those schools' ability to expel uncooperative and disruptive students, far more readily than regular public schools can, as a reason for some charter schools' far better educational outcomes, as shown on many tests....... If the critics are right, and getting rid of the influence of uncooperative or disruptive students contributes to better educational results, then the answer is not to prevent charter schools from expelling such students, but to allow other public schools to remove such students, when other students can benefit from getting a better education without them around."...... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money.".... ALEXIS DE TOCQUEVILLE

 

"Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?"... PATRICK HENRY

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

Last week end I attended an annual reunion sponsored by the Houston Police Retired Officers Association. Now while I did not retire from the Houston Police Department, I did work my first twelve years in law enforcement for that department. I am honored, however, to be an Associate Member of their Association. Each year they have several reunions in several areas of the State of Texas. The one in October is in Fredericksburg, Texas in the Texas Hill Country and the weather is generally pleasant and the food is always very good. Due to the recent heavy rains in many areas of Texas, the attendance was down a bit but there was still a very good crowd. I got to visit with many really good old friends and even met a few new friends which is always nice.

Of course every year there are some old friends who have passed away during the year and I really miss those good people. Also there are some of the best people whom I have ever known, are unable to attend due to health problems. There were 70 people in who graduated from my Houston Police Department Academy Class in 1958 and there were 5 of us in attendance.

 

One really high spot was when I was speaking with a retired Lieutenant from the department we were talking politics or something along those lines and he looked at my name tag and advised me that when he was 18 years old and had been a student at the University of Houston in about 1967 or so, that I had arrested him on some city misdemeanor charge. I did not remember the arrest but then he went on to say that he had spoken to my Lieutenant at that time and that my Lieutenant had called me and arranged for us to meet and have dinner together at a diner on S. Main Street in Houston. When he told me that, I immediately remember he and I eating out and talking and I recommended to the City Prosecutor that the charges against him be dismissed... and they were. Then later on, this young man became a member of the Houston Police Department. Of course neither of us looked the same as we had in 1967 but I was absolutely elated to learn that he had become a member of the Houston Police Department and had stayed until retirement. I told him that I regretted having arrested him 48 years ago but was very happy that we had resolved the matter and that he had a successful career with the Houston P.D.

 

I am looking forward to the Hill Country Reunion next year and hope I don't lose any more friends between now and then.

----------------------

This past week I saw several old movies which I really enjoyed at the time I first saw them and enjoyed them every bit as much this past week. One of the movies was "The Adventures of Don Juan" (1948) , starring Errol Flynn and Vivica Lindfors. And the villain, The Duke de Lorca was played by Robert Douglas. I always enjoyed Errol Flynn movies and of course in many of them Basil Rathbone was the bad guy. I like Basil Rathbone in everything he ever made also. Then I saw "King Of The Khyber Rifles" (1953), starring Tyrone Power, Terry Moore, Michael Rennie with Guy Rolfe playing the villain, Karram Khan. Guy Rolfe also played Prince John in "Ivanhoe".

And, of course for the past several evenings I have been watching Pats 1 - 3 of "Lonesome Dove" (1989) which is one of my absolute favorites.

 

As a matter of fact since about 1976 when Clint Eastwood made "The Outlaw Josey Wales" which also had a great cast of supporting actors which included Will Sampson and Chief Dan George, who stole every single movie in which he appeared, there have not been a whole bunch of movies which I liked AND most of those had one common star. And that star would be ROBERT DUVALL who of course was Capt. Augustus McCrae (Lonesome Dove - 1989); Prentice Ritter (Broken Trail - 2006); Bluebonnet (Boss) Spearman (Open Range - 2003); and finally one of my all time favorites- SECOND HAND LIONS (2003) which had Robert Duvall playing Hub McCann and co-starring Michael Caine as Garth McCann. Also another really great Mini-Series was made in 1978 CENTENNIAL which was absolutely loaded with superb stars.

 

I believe the last movie I saw at a movie theater was "Gran Torino" in which Clint Eastwood did another great job.

As you may have gathered, I am a true fan of old movies and I mean stuff from back in the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s.

---------------------

BUT, whatever you do.. always remember these two things:

 

1) Peyton Manning is too old and cannot throw the long ball anymore ---- tell that to the Packers

2) Drew Brees is too short to play quarterback in the NFL---- pass that on to the N.Y. Giants

October 28th, 2015  RANDOM OBSERVATIONS

 

 

Wednesday - October 28, 2015

 

Greetings once more from the Association Of Fed Up Jingoistic Xenophobic Fossil Fuel Burning Four Wheel Drive Operators Of West Texas.

 

RANDOM OBSERVATIONS:

Yeah, I know this sounds a bit like Dr. Thomas Sowell's occasional columns entitled Random Thoughts. But if you are going to steal an idea or title, at least steal one from someone whom you respect. The reason for this heading this week is that there are so many things which appear to need addressing that I thought I would just point out a few.  Other than an attack from a fleet of Klingon Bird Of Prey starships, I am afraid that our country has pulled the plug on sanity and moral behavior. Just follow along if you will:

 

Well, what do you know? Yet another video of employees of PLANNED PARENTHOOD in which one of these people describes how unused parts of aborted children are fed into a garbage disposal unit. I'm sorry, but any politician who is against the defunding of this organization should be subjected to no less than the "Dunking Stool" which was used in the early colonies to decide whether or not someone was indeed a witch. I have read several accounts that said if the subject strapped in to the "Dunking Stool" were to somehow survive... then for sure they were a witch at which time they were burned at the stake. Of course if you drowned, then obviously a mistake had been made.

---------------

I heard this morning where the very LAST GUN STORE in The People's Republic of San Francisco was preparing to close their doors. The report said that the San Francisco City Council ( I believe they are called the Board of Supervisors, or something like that) had passed legislation requiring ALL SALES OF FIREARMS OR AMMUNITION BE FILMED VIA VIDEO.  The owner of this Gun Store said that he was not going to submit his customers to that so he will close the doors. BOY! I'll bet that violent crime in San Francisco will just be non-existent. It should be hard to believe that a local government could be this intrusive but for some reason I have no trouble picturing this from many other large LIBERAL cities.

-----------------------

Then I heard that the Dallas County Sheriff, LUPE VALDEZ, had announced that her Law Enforcement Agency would honor Federal Immigration Detainers on a

CASE-BY-CASE basis. The article stated that Texas Governor Gregg Abbott "Wrote a tersely worded letter to Sheriff Valdez after her decision to scale back on honoring Immigration Detainers sent to her jail for the federal government's Immigration and Customs Enforcement." "Sanctuary City policies like those promoted by your recent decision to implement your own CASE-BY-CASE immigrant detention plan WILL NO LONGER BE TOLERATED IN TEXAS".  "Your refusal to fully participate in a federal law enforcement program intended to keep dangerous criminals off the streets leaves the State no choice but to take whatever actions are necessary to protect our fellow Texans."  I'm pretty sure that Texas Governor Gregg Abbott is a tad tougher than California Governor Jerry Brown...... But when you think about it, Richard Simmons is tougher than Jerry Brown.

----------------

A headline in today's (Sub) Standard Times read:  U.S. RETHINKING STRATEGY............. Really? My first thought was... WHAT STRATEGY?  Then the article went on to explain that Defense Secretary Ash Carter, said Tuesday that the United states is RETOOLING its strategy in Iraq and Syria and would conduct unilateral ground raids if needed to target Islamic State militants. OK. Let's see now, are Islamic state MILITANTS the same as MUSLIM TERRORISTS? Let's wait for Ash and some of his merry men to explain that to us.

 

Oh yeah, since U.S. troops participated in a ground operation to rescue hostages last week in Northern Iraq... in what Ash Carter previously stated WAS NOT A MILITARY OPERATION..... perhaps the Obama Administration had better cover their asses again. Hey! Won't this be something like "Boots On The Ground" which is something that the world's most intelligent and articulate human assured us would not happen?  But when we lose a member of our American Military in this action, I have a hard time believing that it was not a Military Action, in spite of what Ash had to say about it. Ash is a VARMINT.

--------------------------

Well, well, well. It appears as if once again, present House Speaker John Boehner has struck another deal with Obama and the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists. The newspaper said that this could be the "Last Act" prior to his exit from Congress at the end of the week. BUT what I found very interesting is that probable new Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan was also favorable to this deal. Boy it sounds like there are some serious changes in store for the American people insofar as Congressional leadership goes..... doesn't it?  Then I also heard that House Democrat/Progressive/Socialist, Steny Hoyer was also supportive of Paul Ryan's take over as Speaker of the House. Folks, I think we are looking forward to the same ol' tune just being played by a different band.

----------------------

Last week I made a comment regarding Hillary Clinton being elected and if so we could look forward to confiscation of firearms by the government. I had a couple of people write me back and say that they didn't think that would ever happen. Let me make it clear..... I do not believe that wholesale firearms confiscation would be tolerated by the American people. BUT, I did see Hillary talking about Gun Control and she said that she favored the kind of gun control laws in Australia.

Now as far as I know, Australian citizens had access to firearms almost like we do here. SO, what they did was institute a Government Firearms Buy-Back program in which the Australian government paid people for turning in firearms. Then after a certain date, any unauthorized firearms in possession of Australian citizens was a CRIME and the firearms were subject to confiscation by the government.

So, I do believe that if Hillary Clinton is elected that she will try to run some game like that by the American people. And, also you might want to talk to some of the folks who have had their personal firearms seized by the state due to some really intrusive state laws.

 

BUT at least Hillary calls it GUN CONTROL while President Barack Hussein Obama keeps referring to "GUN SAFETY LAWS".

"One issue is the utter disaster created by the Obama administration's foreign policy in Libya, carried out by Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State...... An even bigger issue is whether high officials of government can ignore the law and refuse to produce evidence when it is subpoenaed.

One of my all time Movie Stars ( and I mean STARS, not just actors) died this week. That would be Maureen O'Hara who died in her sleep at age 95. Just recently I saw her in "The Hunchback Of Notre Dame"; "Rio Grande"; "Big Jake"; and my all time favorite Non-Western with John Wayne "The Quiet Man". Of course The Quiet Man had every really good Irish Actor on the planet as a cast member. In case you were wondering, my second favorite Non-Western of John Wayne was "Donovan's Reef".

I watched an interview with Maureen O'Hara a few weeks back. Although confined to a wheel chair she was still as sharp tongued as ever. The article said that she died in her sleep. The motion picture industry has lost one of the great ladies of that profession.

----------------------------

A week or so back, I also lost one of my really good friends here in San Angelo. His name was Don Faubion. Don was 86 years old and I met him when we first moved to San Angelo in 2003. Don's was a real success story and he was one of those guys who worked hard all his life and ended up with a good retirement and made some really good investments so that he could provide for his family. He was one of my very first new friends here in San Angelo and he and I had a lot in common in the fact that both of our fathers owned neighborhood grocery stores. His in Leander, Texas and of course mine in Houston.

We both loved Texas High School Football and both of collected really nice High School and College caps.  We were both fans of the old Southwest Conference and of course growing up we were both huge fans of the "Southwest Conference Game of the Week" sponsored by the "Humble Oil and Refining Company" which had ONE, broadcast announcer. No color commentator; No sideline diva to butt in during the game with stupid questions; and that announcer was Mr. Kern Tips who had a voice equal to that of former NFL announcer, John Facenda.

 

A week or so before his passing, Don and I were at a local coffee shop and he was telling me that he didn't think he would make it through this football season. He was on oxygen 24 hours a day and walking was becoming a real chore. One of the last things he said to me was that he sure hoped he would go in his sleep at his home. And that is just how he left us. I do know that a world without Don Faubion won't be nearly as much fun or as interesting.

****The reason I have that quotation marked is that I believe that we are closer to this particular situation than most would like to think.

October 21st, 2015   THROUGH

Wednesday - October 21, 2015

 

Hello once again from the Home Office For Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Xenophobic (So they tell me), Fossil Fuel Burning Meat Eaters Of West Texas.

 

THROUGH:

 

Just in the past couple of days, while drinking coffee with several different groups of friends, the subject of our federal government came up. And even though I was with three different groups of people, the general consensus of opinion was that if some drastic changes were not made at almost every level of government, the country in which we all grew up WAS THROUGH.

Just stop and think back in the years after Harry Truman was President of the United States and even the years in which his successors; John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush were in the Oval Office, we did not ever experience the feeling of hopelessness that many Americans are feeling now. There is no doubt that during the Johnson Administration that there were some really liberal policies enacted and of course when you add to that the Vietnam War and the restraints put on our military by Johnson and his Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara (who held this position for 8 years; 2,595 days) which to date is the longest anyone has held that position. Oh, and did I forget to mention that Lyndon B. Johnson was a Democrat?

 

Then LBJ announced that he would not run for a second term. Then we had the Nixon years in which the media and the Democrats/Socialists will always bring up "Watergate". And there is not any doubt that a crime was committed BUT what got Nixon was not the crime BUT THE COVER UP. And don't forget that even though Nixon fumbled the ball big time, The United States of America was still respected/feared worldwide. Of course Nixon resigned and Gerald Ford took office and was fairly weak as a President but did not perform any drastic deeds.

Then we had Jimmy Carter, who up until now was the absolute weakest and most inept President in my lifetime. Of course when he ran for a second term, Ronald Regan handed Carter his head on a platter along with his ass. Up until Ronald Regan ran against Carter, I was a member of the Democrat Party. But along about that time, even the Republicans in the formerly Democrat controlled State of New Mexico began to run some really good candidates and one day while Tony Knott and I were in District Court, we went to the County Clerk's office and changed our political registration to Republican. In either Regan's first or second term we also had a Democrat Congressman pass away and of course our Democrat Governor appointed his nephew to fill the vacant position. During that election, Joe Skeen who was a rancher from the Roswell area ran on a WRITE IN CAMPAIGN and WON BIG TIME.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Skeen at a campaign event as I was working security at the door. We talked for a few minutes and he went on his way. After the election that November where Joe Skeen won by a fairly large margin, some friends and I on New Years Day were drinking coffee at a local pancake house and we saw Mr. Skeen and some other people come in and sit across the room. At that time I was wearing my maroon and white cap from Texas A & M and while we were talking, Mr. (Congressman) Skeen walked up to our table he introduced himself and told me he liked my cap. I then found out the Joe Skeen had graduated from Texas A & M University. After passing a few words he looked real hard at me and said, "I believe I know you... aren't you a Police Officer?" I told him I was and where we had met. I was pretty impressed that he would remember meeting me on that once occasion.

Anyway, those were good years as were the four years under George H.W. Bush... at least they were good years from my perspective. Then, of course following President Bush we had 8 years of Bill Clinton. Now while I will freely admit that our economy was good during those years, Clinton left much to be desired insofar as character and honesty were concerned.

Of course following Clinton was George W. Bush. I, as a whole, liked President Bush and really did appreciate the manner in which he treated our men and women in the U.S. Military. While I did not agree with some of his domestic policies and I sure didn't agree with one attempted Supreme Court Justice appointment, I still think he is a decent man.

 

THEN.... we were subjected to the criminal administration of Barack Hussein Obama. It is really hard if not impossible to point out just how badly screwed up our federal government is under this professional "Community Organizer". If you will just take a look at his appointments and his cabinet, it won't take you very long to come to the conclusion that this man is a Socialist to the core. He has appointed nothing but flunkies to key government positions and even though he has been in office for almost seven years, he still, on a daily basis, blames George W. Bush and the Republicans for every bad situation and our daily growing 18 TRILLION DOLLAR NATIONAL DEBT. Income Re-Distribution Of Wealth along with Climate Change appear to the driving forces in his existence.

During the Obama Administration, we have seen our Constitution all but shredded by Obama and his appointees. To me, the First Amendment's guarantee of Freedom of Speech has been eroded to the point of it being almost unrecognizable. To prove this point, at almost every turn, the federal government attempts to place the tag of "HATE SPEECH" or "HATE CRIME" in every instance of confrontation between minority groups and law enforcement. I'm sorry but FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS EXACTLY THAT. The First Amendment protects words which are insulting to others. Even our top military brass have caved in to his lies and totally incompetent foreign policy. And now that he is coming to the end (THANK GOD) of his second term, the political party with whom he is in bed, is pushing none other than Hillary Rodham Clinton, who in my opinion is just a unqualified to hold the Office of President as is Obama..... and potentially more dangerous to our freedom.

BUT, why would we have expected any other results from a man who not only lies on a regular basis to the American People but applies political pressure on other elected officials FROM BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES, to obtain his desired results.

NO! I am not blaming Barack Hussein Obama OR Hillary Rodham Clinton for the mess our country finds itself. I BLAME THE AMERICAN VOTERS AND THE ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS WHO ARE INTERCHANGEABLE WITH THE ESTABLISHMENT DEMOCRATS. There is no difference other than what they choose to call themselves.

 

I truly feel that if ANY of the Democrat candidates win the November 2016 election that we will not recognize our wonderful country in 4 years. I believe that you can kiss the Second Amendment goodbye and in particular if Hillary is elected, firearms confiscation will be in our future. I further believe that if ANY of the Democrats are elected that we will have an influx of Muslim Terrorists like we never dreamed possible. I further believe that if any of the Democrats are elected, seizure of private property will be in our immediate future. IN OTHER WORDS WE ARE THROUGH!

 

If my bashing of Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton somehow gives you the impression that I DETEST EVERY SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLE IN THEIR SOCIALIST/MARXIST BODIES..... THEN I MUST CONGRATULATE YOU ON BEING MOST PERCEPTIVE.

"Passing laws against guns may enable zealots to feel good about themselves, but at the cost of other people's lives."..... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The knockout game of suddenly throwing a punch to the head of some unsuspecting passer-by would not be nearly so much fun for street hoodlums, if there was a serious risk that the passer-by was carrying a concealed firearm."..... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Another feature of gun control zealotry is that sweeping assumptions are made, and enacted into law, on the basis of sheer ignorance. People who know nothing about guns, and have never fired a shot in their lives, much less lived in high-crime areas, blithely say such things as, 'Nobody needs a 30-shot magazine.'... Really? If three criminals invaded your home, endangering the lives of you and your loved ones, are you such a sharpshooter that you could take them all out with a clip holding ten bullets? Or a clip with just seven bullets, which is the limit you would be allowed under gun laws in some places?"....THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....

I am sure you noticed that all of the quotes from Dr. Thomas Sowell today dealt with gun control laws. I watched a program several years back in which Dr. Sowell granted a rare live interview. During that interview, I learned that Thomas Sowell was at one time a firearms instructor in the U.S. Military. So he is not just another academic speaking on a subject about which he has little or no experience. One of his latest articles is titled "The Gun Control Farce: Part II. I believe it was published on October 14th. It is well worth reading.

---------------------

I heard one news report earlier this week which said that the Ted Cruz campaign is one of the leading fund raisers of all the candidates. The report also said that 70% of the funds raised by the Cruz campaign came from people donating $200 or less. That speaks pretty highly of the Cruz supporters which indicates perhaps that he has a good bit more support from real conservative voters than do some of the other so called Republican candidates who are receiving their donations from large donors. The figures did not include any money from the Super PACs.

With all that is going on at present, for some reason the television and radio news programs seem to place the condition of Lamar Odom, former NBA player and husband of Khloe Kardashian, at the top of the news list. Of course, you have all heard that this Odom idiot went into a coma at a whorehouse in Nevada due to mixing cocaine and some sex enhancement drug. OK, let me make this one observation...... who gives a shit? If you are stupid enough to marry into the Kardashian family, anything that goes wrong is deserved.

---------------------------

I wrote most of this letter yesterday since beginning at 11:00 A.M. today, Wednesday, on the TCM Channel the old Errol Flynn swashbuckler, The Adventures Of Don Juan, was playing. Besides Errol Flynn, one of my all-time favorites, this movie had one of the most beautiful women EVER on Planet Earth in the lead female role. Her name is Vivica Lindfors. And of course this being a period movie the costumes AND the music were all great. AH, but not to be outdone, immediately following The Adventures Of Don Juan was the old Robert Taylor classic, Ivanhoe, which had a bunch of great actors and a young Elizabeth Taylor who was also one of the all time beautiful women. Great movies; Great actors; what more can you ask for?

---------------------------

OH NO! Joseph Biden WILL NOT RUN FOR PRESIDENT. This all but hands over the Democrat nomination to Hillary Clinton.... unless she really drops the ball on he Benghazi hearings or the F.B.I. is able to show illegal activities regarding her E-Mails. And folks, if Hillary gets a free run, and the Establishment Republicans are able to push Jeb Bush or someone of that caliber through as the Republican nominee.... then just stick a fork in America as we know it. WE ARE DONE.

October 14, 2015    LEADERSHIP

Wednesday - October 14, 2015

 

Hello once more from the Association Of Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Xenophobes Of West Texas.

 

 

LEADERSHIP:

 

Let us first look at the word LEADERSHIP. According to the Webster's New World Dictionary:

Leadership n. - authority; control; effective administration; skill; foresight

 

Now let us reflect back to last Sunday when the world's most articulate and intelligent human, Barack Hussein Obama, was a guest on Sixty Minutes. The CBS interviewer, Steve Kroft, made the statement that Russian President Vladimir Putin was "Challenging Obama's LEADERSHIP. Obama, obviously upset with this statement, in his reply made this statement: MY DEFINITION OF LEADERSHIP WOULD BE LEADING ON CLIMATE CHANGE, AN INTERNATIONAL ACCORD THAT POTENTIALLY WE'LL GET IN PARIS. MY DEFINITION OF LEADERSHIP IS MOBILIZING THE ENTIRE WORLD COMMUNITY TO MAKE SURE THAT IRAN DOESN'T GET A NUCLEAR WEAPON.

 

One at this point must wonder just exactly what level of stupidity and in what low esteem Barack Hussein Obama must hold the American people.

 

Every military and foreign policy expert, other than those who are stooges of Barack Obama, absolutely believe that the inept LEADERSHIP shown by Barack Obama and John Kerry and his negotiating team, have done nothing but INSURE that Iran will have a nuclear weapon sooner than expected.

 

When I was watching video coverage of the "Iran Nuclear Deal" talks it appeared as if we had sent some reasonably incompetent people to represent us in these negotiations. As I was watching the video coverage, the thought crossed my mind that Iran had Don Corleone representing them while we had Richard Simmons representing the United States.

If you will just look very closely, I believe you will come to the conclusion that neither Vladimir Putin; nor Xi Jinping; nor Ayatollah Ali Khamenei; nor the idiot from N. Korea, Kim, Jung Un have any respect for or fear of President Barack Hussein Obama nor of any of his appointed representatives.

 

Having Barack Obama lecture us on LEADERSHIP can be compared to some pee-wee league football coach giving advice to Patriots Coach Bill Belichick.

 

And I must at this point say that I do not have any regard for the LEADERSHIP in the U.S. House of Representatives or the U.S. Senate. BUT let's don't stop there, let us continue on and include the Joint Chiefs and the Republican National Committee. I don't even remember the clown's name who is the head of the RNC because it really doesn't make any difference since Karl Rove appears to still be calling the shots for the Establishment Republicans.

 

Let's face it. LEADERSHIP insofar as the political spectrum is concerned is completely missing. And please tell me what kind of so called LEADER would insert himself into a community which did not want him to show up. I am, of course, speaking of the mass shootings in Roseburg, Oregon where multiple deaths occurred. The people of that community were not interested in a visit from the world's most articulate and intelligent human and made it pretty clear that they would rather the President not come to their community. BUT, the LEADER of the FREE WORLD had gun control on his agenda and he was not about to let anything stand in the way of furthering his search for disarming America.

 

If Americans had been in possession of the kind of LEADERSHIP to which we are now subjected, our country could not have even existed. America could not have won:

The War of Independence (Revolutionary War)

The War of 1812

The Mexican War

The Civil War

The Spanish American War

World War I

World War II

Nor any other military conflict in which our country was involved.

QUOTES:

 

"President Obama's intrusion into the mourning community of Roseburg, Oregon, in order to promote his political crusade for stronger gun control laws, is part of a pattern of his using various other sites of shooting rampages in the past to promote his long-standing crusade of the political left.".... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"If there is hard evidence that stronger gun control laws actually reduce gun crimes in general or reduce murders in particular, the Second Amendment can be repealed, as other Amendments have been repealed. Constitutional Amendments exist to serve the people. People do not exist to be sacrificed to Constitutional Amendments. BUT if hard evidence shows that restrictions on gun ownership lead to more gun crimes, rather than less, then the National Rifle Association's opposition to those restrictions makes sense, independently of the Second Amendment.".......... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Why would an ultimately factual question about the consequences of gun control laws divide people along ideological lines? Only if at least one set of people were more devoted to their vision than to the facts.......This shows up when gun control zealots are asked whether whatever new law they propose would have prevented the shooting rampage that they are using as a stage from which to propose a new clampdown on gun ownership. Almost always, the new law being proposed would not have made the slightest difference. That too is part of the farce. A deadly farce.... So is the automatic assertion that whoever engaged in a shooting rampage was a madman. Yet these supposedly crazy shooters are usually rational enough to choose some 'gun free zone' for their murderous attacks. They seem more rational than gun control zealots who keep creating more GUN-FREE ZONES."........ THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

I did not watch the Democrat Debate last evening but I have heard enough sound bytes today to form an opinion that NONE of the Democrat Candidates are really interested in defeating Hillary Clinton. It seems as if they passed on questioning her stand on a number of items.

 

Of course, former Baltimore Mayor and Former Maryland Governor, Martin O'Malley could not be counted on to do anything right. After all, he was the selection of the City of Baltimore as well as the State of Maryland to head both of those governments. Yes, this is the same City of Baltimore that also elected a totally incompetent Stephanie Rawlings-Blake as their present Mayor and Marilyn Mosby as their State Prosecutor, so their choices seem to fall a bit short of any type of competent standard.

 

I shall make up for not watching the Democrat Debate by not watching the Academy Awards Program when it next come.

--------------------------

I read an article in the (Sub) Standard Times which said that the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to The Tunisian National Dialogue Quartet which was also described as a "Struggling Tunisian Activist" group. Way To Go Tunisia!! When I think of peace, Tunisia will naturally jump into my mind.

But then I think back when this same "Peace Prize" was awarded to Yasser Arafat and later on to Barack Hussein Obama. I am surprised that at some point in time they did not award this coveted prize to Idi Amin. He was at least as peaceful as Yasser Arafat.

 

I would still rather remember Alfred Nobel for inventing dynamite over the idiotic prizes now given in his name.

------------------------

Way To Go Appellate Court!! The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals declared the Texas State Law of desecrating the flags of The State of Texas or the United States as unconstitutional. Of course it was invalidated on First Amendment grounds. Isn't it a bit odd how the Liberals/Socialists have come up with creative methods to stick damn near everything in a slot as a First Amendment Right?

------------------------

Also in the (Sub) Standard Times was a short article informing us that a "Tenured Professor" at the University of Texas has said that he will not teach next year due to the new Texas State Law allowing for concealed handguns at public universities.

I watched an interview with this wimp and he had the commanding appearance of Pee-Wee Herman. As I was watching this weenie speak, I was wondering if he was wearing "Shoe Mirrors". (Now for those of you living in The People's Republic of San Francisco, shoe mirrors were worn by Pee Wee Herman so he could look up under girl's skirts).

 

So to this "Tenured Professor" I say Leave On The Horse That You Rode In On. SO, it appears as if The University of Texas has a few more problems than their Football Program.... although their football team didn't look all that bad last Saturday.

-----------------

Finally, a Letter To The Editor of The (Sub) Standard Times which pretty much mirrors the views of any sane thinking American. This writer pointed out that young Ahmed Mohamed, the student who brought a device in a small case to school saying it was a clock, was passive aggressive. The wouldn't explain what the device was but referred to it as a "CLOCK". The letter pointed out that the CLOCK was not part of a homework assignment or a science fair project, as we were first led to believe.

It further pointed out that Ahmed's father is a Muslim Activist. Also, this so called CLOCK began to beep during an English class. When the teacher opened up the briefcase, she saw what appeared to be a home made bomb. All of the teachers in this school had been taught by Homeland Security to report anything suspicious which is what this teacher did.

 

However, President Barack Hussein Obama, on hearing of this incident, TWEETED, "Cool clock Ahmed" and this was prior to any photographs of the so called CLOCK had been released. Obama further invited Ahmed to the White House. The letter went on to report that Google, Twitter, Facebook and NASA have offered Ahmed scholarships and internships without having seen this so called CLOCK.

 

Sure looks like a pure case of ISLAMAPHOBIA to me.

October 7th, 2015    GUN CONTROL / STATISTICS

Wednesday - October 7, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the Association For Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Climate Change Denying Xenophobes Of West Texas. 

 

GUN CONTROL/STATISTICS:

 

After the Oregon school shooting we have been bombarded by all kinds of information and opinions on how "Gun Violence" must be handled. And, of course most of the people speaking at length on this subject generally live or work in areas which have pretty strong state and local laws regarding the possession of firearms by American citizens.

 

On one hand, we have Barack Hussein Obama who is from Chicago which just happens to have some of the more strict laws regarding firearms possession by citizens YET when you look at the statistics regarding the shooting incidents in that city you will find that gun crimes are out of control EVEN THOUGH CHICAGO HAS VERY STRICT LAWS REGARDING NOT ONLY POSSESSION OF FIREARMS BUT ADDITIONALLY HOW THE FIREARMS MUST BE MAINTAINED IN PRIVATE RESIDENCES.

BUT, Barack Hussein Obama, mere hours after the school shooting in Oregon, came out with a statement that our country must join together and pass some meaningful GUN SAFETY LAWS. GUN SAFETY LAWS? Of course we all know that he meant more strict laws regarding the possession of firearms by honest American citizens. Lake all other true Liberals/Democrats/Socialists, Barack Hussein Obama believes that firearms ownership by honest American citizens should be BANNED! In his pitch to the American people this sorry excuse for a United States President went on to claim that the states with the most strict gun laws have fewer deaths due to firearms, and the claim that criminals can always get their hands on firearms is simply NOT BORNE OUT BY THE EVIDENCE. Really?

 

AH, but then later in the day Bill O'Reilly pretty much shot holes in the lies told by President Barack Hussein Obama and gave some legitimate statistical information compiled by Federal Law Enforcement which was in complete contradiction of the lies uttered by the President of the United States.

BUT, after blowing holes (sorry for this comparison) in the Obama theory, O'Reilly summed up his presentation with his idea that ALL FIREARMS CRIMES SHOULD BE FEDERAL CRIMES WITH A MINIMUM FIVE YEAR SENTENCE. If you think the Federal Courts are jammed up now with cases just make ALL firearms crimes Federal Crimes and you will see prison overcrowding and criminal docket overcrowding like never before.

Most states have Firearms Enhancements for crimes committed while using firearms.. or any other weapon for that matter. At present the Federal Government has control over licensed firearms dealers and firearms sales which include a Federal Background Check.

I damn near break out in fits of laughter when really brilliant observers like Juan Williams come up with the idea of strict background checks. HEY JUAN! The checks performed by licensed firearms dealers are done by the FBI. Whom do you suggest conduct these criminal background checks? Do you think that perhaps each firearms purchase should be run through the computer on the Starship Enterprise? Get real. Oh yeah, and Juan wants more in depth checks into a purchaser's MEDICAL BACKGROUND. OK Juan, I'm going to say this only once. The information between a doctor and a patient is PRIVILEGED COMMUNICATION and can only be obtained with a COURT ORDER. Do you perhaps suggest that the Federal Government have Agents execute a search warrant on every prospective purchaser's physician or in most cases physicians?

 

Also, it might be suggested that Juan Williams, Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and all of the other ANTI - SECOND AMENDMENT bozos to perhaps look at just how many of these past number of mass shootings have occurred in..... yep, you guessed it........ GUN FREE ZONES. How much more restrictive can a location be than to have ALL FIREARMS PROHIBITED ON THAT PARTICULAR PREMISES?

 

Let me say this one more time for the benefit of all of the Anti-Second Amendment Liberals/Democrats/Socialists/Marxists. IF AN INDIVIDUAL HAS IT IN HIS/HER MIND TO GO TO A CERTAIN LOCATION AND MURDER MULTIPLE PEOPLE.....THEN HE/SHE IS NOT GOING TO BE ALL THAT CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT LAWS AGAINST FIREARMS POSSESSION HE/SHE WILL VIOLATE. HE/SHE IS GOING TO COMMIT MASS MURDER. So, Mr. O'Reilly, I don't much think that if that same person is going to commit Murder or Armed Robbery that they will be all that worried about a 5 year mandatory sentence in the Federal System.

 

Let me say once again for the benefit of O'Reilly, Obama, O'Clinton, Juan O'Williams and O' who the hell ever else......IT IS A BEHAVIOR PROBLEM. PLEASE BLAME THE PERSON.. NOT THE WEAPON. Actually, I think O'Reilly would agree with me on this. And besides, I thought that "The Brady Bill" was going to solve all these problems. At least that is what we were told.

 

AND REMEMBER.....GUN CONTROL HAS NEVER BEEN ABOUT GUNS....IT IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT CONTROL.

MORE STUFF:

 

From a Letter To The Editor from the (Sub) Standard Times: "As I have watched the reporting of the migration of refugees from Muslim countries to the European Union, I saw military-age men fleeing. They were using their size and strength to force ahead of women and children. Instead of such cowardly acts, those men should be volunteering for military training and service to help defeat those who are causing such a massive migration...... It seems as if these cowardly men are counting on other nations' mothers to sacrifice their sons to defeat the enemy they should be fighting so the refugees may return in safety to their home countries. Shame on them! The nations of the European Union should accept women and children, but draft the men into mandatory military service and send them to fight ISIS and Syria."

 

The funny thing is that I have noticed the same thing. I also watched several videos of Muslim refugees in one of the European countries waiting at a train station and the locals were bringing them bottles of water and bags of food. Many of the Muslim refugees were taking the water and throwing it on the train tracks as well as some of the food. One report said that the reason was that some of the stuff was from the Red Cross and the Muslims said that the cross is a Christian symbol so they would not accept any of the items........ Their choice...BUT... they would not receive another thing from the country who was trying to help them if I had anything to say about it.

----------------------

I was listening to a news report earlier today and they were giving the results of a "Likeability Poll" and I don't recall which group of rocket scientists were conducting this valuable poll BUT the results showed that Joe Biden was more likeable than Hillary Clinton. REALLY? What a surprise. But when you take a really close look, I believe you will find that the Roman Emperor Caligula was more likeable than Hillary Clinton. Vlad the Impaler was more likeable than Hillary Clinton. When you really get down to comparison on the likeability scale the only other people on the same level as Hillary Clinton are Barack Hussein Obama and his jug butted wife Michelle.

--------------------

Let's really hear it for public schools ALL OVER AMERICA. I heard this week that yet another public school had BANNED the game of TAG because it involves touching. Then I heard of another school district in Wyoming, I believe, that had urged their students to wear American Flag Pins and other patriotic clothing to school for Columbus Day, but then changed their minds just as soon as they learned that it might be upsetting to some FOREIGN STUDENTS....... Beam me up Mister Spock.. Unleash the Photon Torpedoes on this planet. They are ruled by dangerous fools.

September 23rd, 2015    CARSON / FIORINA / CLOCK

Wednesday - September 23, 2015

 

I bid you greetings from the Jingoistic  Politically Incorrect Vast Right Wing Conspiratorial Second Amendment Supporters Of West Texas.

CARSON/FIORINA

 

Within the past few days, Dr. Ben Carson has leaped way up my ladder of candidates while at the same time, Carly Fiorina has..... how shall I put it..... pissed in her own lemonade.  Now I never did hop on the Fiorina bandwagon but I did think she looked well prepared for her two so called "Debate" performances.  And it was fairly obvious in last Wednesday's CNN version of a Candidate "Debate" that the crack staff at CNN pretty well kept Trump; Bush;  and Fiorina in the spotlight.  What made it really obvious was that these three had more minutes answering incredibly STUPID questions or insinuations of the CNN idiots.

Dr. Carson,  Ted Cruz,  Marco Rubio, and the rest were interrupted while finishing their answers and were not given nearly the minutes that Trump, Bush, and Fiorina were given.  BUT, that idiotic so called debate was not the primary reason for Ms. Fiorina dropping so badly on my potential candidate totem pole.  I just began reading articles and watching videos of Ms. Fiorina's past performances. A few things were brought to mind with the least not being that Carly Fiorina was a solid McCain supporter and was a proponent of the McCain/Lindsey Graham Amnesty program regarding ILLEGAL  ALIENS.  Even this past week she made the statement that she would not oppose a Muslim being elected as President of the United States. While taking this typical politically correct view of a truly idiotic question, Carly Fiorina showed just how little understanding she has of the Constitution of the United States of America.

 

Meanwhile, Dr. Ben Carson responded that he would not support any candidate of any religion or ethnic background who would not place the United States Constitution ahead of their personal beliefs. Apparently Dr. Carson understands the First Amendment a little better than does Ms. Fiorina. The First Amendment  limits our Federal Government from establishment of any religion or prohibiting the "FREE  EXERCISE THEREOF". It does not mandate or require  ANY  U.S. CITIZEN  TO ACCEPT  ALL  RELIGIONS  NOR DOES IT  PROHIBIT  ANY  CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES  FROM HAVING  A  PERSONAL  OPINION  REGARDING OR  DISLIKING  ANY RELIGION. 

So, while Ms. Fiorina  fell  right  in  line  with the Liberal/Progressive/Democrat/Establishment Republican/Socialist  idea of  being able to accept  a  Muslim as President of the United States,  Dr. Carson correctly  identified what a huge problem it would be to find a Muslim candidate who could disregard the requirements of the Muslim Faith and place the United States Constitution  ahead of their religious teachings.

 

Was it just me, or did anyone else notice that in last week's  so called "Debate" that Ms. Fiorina exhibited a frown most of the evening.  As a matter of fact, she looked like she was ready to bite the front bumper off a Mack Truck.  And of course  "The Donald" who had made some dispariging remarks which appeared to be directed at Ms. Fiorina's physical  looks,  tried to deflect those remarks and ended up saying that she thought the Ms. Fiorina had a beautiful face. Well Donald,  you probably screwed up in besmirching Ms. Fiorina's  looks  but trying to make amends by saying that she was "Beautiful" is also a bit hard to swallow.

 

I still believe that Ted Cruz has the intelligence and background to do the best job of any of the candidates but I must admit that in the past few days, Dr. Ben Carson has shown a side that I had not seen before.  But in reality, if the Republicans are going to depend upon these idiotic so called "Debates" to choose a candidate, then count me OUT.

While Ms. Fiorina's  stance on the Second Amendment is exceptionally good, I just can't get  by the fact that she was a big supporter for John McCain.  In my estimation, John McCain is a RINO and is certainly no conservative.  BUT this is also my opinion of "The Donald"; Jeb Bush;  Mike Huckabee; and Carly Fiorina.  This next election has all the earmarks of allowing the media and establishment Republicans still another opportunity to choose the Republican Presidential Candidate. NO  THANK  YOU.

 

CLOCK:

 

I have read several articles and seen and heard several military experts discuss the so called "CLOCK" that the Muslim kid brought to class in Irving, Texas and EVERY  ONE of these reports by explosive experts and military personnel and law enforcement personnel say that this Muslim kid's "CLOCK" had all the appearances of an explosive device; a suitcase bomb.  I have seen a few explosive devices in the past and I have to say that this Muslim kid's clock does in fact  look like a home made explosive device.  Also, it is now reported that  the so called "CLOCK" inside the case was a "Count Down Device". In other words it did not tell the correct time but was set to count down to zero and in fact did set the alarm off which is what brought the device to a teacher's attention.  SO, spare me all the whining crap from CAIR and the rest of the Islamic groups, and spare me the whining of this kid's idiot parents, and spare me the attempts to make this kid a VICTIM.  And as it turns out, this kid did not construct a clock from various parts but rather took a perfectly good working clock and alter it to its configuration when seized by law enforcement.

I also heard from several sources that the City Government of Irving, Texas had voted down a move by CAIR backed Muslim groups to allow Sharia Law to be enforced in the growing Muslim population of that City. Small damn wonder that Dr. Carson answered the idiotic question asked by an idiotic reporter about electing a Muslim President of the United States.

 

Hope the Muslim kid has a wonderful visit to the White House at the invitation of Barack Hussein Obama.

QUOTES:

 

"In a country with more than 300 million people, it is remarkable how obsessed the media have become with just one -- Donald Trump.  What is even more remarkable is that, after six years of repeated disasters, both domestically and internationally, under a glib egomaniac in the White House, so many potential voters are turning to another glib egomaniac to be his successor."................. THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"No doubt much of the stampede of Republican voters toward Mr. Trump is based on their disgust with the Republican establishment.  The fact that the next two biggest vote-getters in the polls are also complete outsiders -- Dr. Ben Carson and Ms. Carly Fiorina -- reinforces the idea that this is a protest."........ THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"An election is not a popularity contest, or an award for showmanship.  If you want to fulfill your duty as a citizen, then you need to become an informed voter.  And if you are not informed, then the most patriotic thing you can do on election day is stay at home. Otherwise your vote, based on whims or emotions, is playing Russian roulette with the fate of this nation."......... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"Arms discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. Horrid mischief would ensue were the law abiding deprived the use of them.".......... THOMAS  PAINE

 

"To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them."..............................  RICHARD  HENRY  LEE

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK  HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

"OH NO  MR. BILL!!!! It seems as if some of the e-mails which Hillary Clinton said were destroyed ...... HAVE  BEEN  RETRIEVED.  Allegedly the F.B.I. are going through these newly discovered e-mails to see if any of them contain any classified information.  I'll bet you couldn't drive a straight pin up Hillary's backside with a sledge hammer.  Of course, even if it is shown that Hillary Clinton did in fact violate federal law, it would still remain the job of the Department of Justice under an Obama appointee to pursue prosecution...... and I just don't believe that would happen.

-------------------

Since I missed the Academy Awards show earlier in the year, I made up for it by also not watching the Emmy Awards Show.  In scanning the list of winners the following morning I noticed that I recognized Bill Murray's name and also Jon Stewart's name.  Of course I knew Bill Murray from the "Old"  Saturday Night Live and several movies and I recognized Jon Stewart's name from hearing it mentioned on other programs and seeing him as a guest on the O'Reilly Factor on occasion. I probably, since its inception, have not seen more than 30 seconds of Jon Stewart's show "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart".  It is a rarity when I recognize any of the names of the performers on any of these "Awards Shows".

-------------------------

While our inept and incompetent federal government is making plans to allow hundreds of thousands of Muslim immigrants to enter our country, many of the European countries have seen what this can lead to and some of them are closing their borders..... using, of all things.... A  FENCE.... and of course their military.  The latest I have seen much coverage on is the country of Croatia.  Evidently they are using a bit of common sense.  Just look, if you will, at many of the European countries which allowed  Muslim immigration into their borders totally unchecked.  Every one of those countries have experienced  some real problems, particularly with the Muslim youth.  And, as usual, those countries who are prohibiting unlimited entry inside their borders are being criticized by other European countries who have already caved in.

----------------------------

One of my all time favorite professional athletes has died at age 90.  That would be Mr. Lawrence Peter "Yogi" Berra.  Yogi Berra has played in more World Series games than anyone else.  He has also played on more World Series Championship teams than anyone else.  He has 10 World Series Rings.  I always enjoyed watching the New York Yankees play during the 1950's and 1960's in particular. I believe that the Yankees had the absolute best baseball teams I have ever seen during those years.  I also believe that Yogi Berra was the BEST  CATCHER  I  HAVE  EVER  SEEN.

 

As a kid, growing up in Houston while working at my Dad's store, I delivered groceries on my bicycle to a family several blocks away from his place of business. The lady's husband was involved in professional baseball with the New York Yankees at that time. He would travel to New York and return to Houston and on many occasions he would bring me back some baseball souvenirs from some of the Yankee teams from the late 1940's and early 1950's.  I had all kinds of autographed baseballs and a Louisville Slugger bat which was the signature bat of Brooklyn Dodgers First Baseman. Dolph Camilli.  Camilli was the National League home run leader in 1941.  He also brought me a first baseman's mitt which was a Johnny Sturm mitt.  Sturm was the Yankees first baseman in 1941.  Of course I had autographed photos from the Yankees from several years.  I kept all that stuff along with every single DC Comic Book (Superman, Batman);  Every WHIZ Comic Book (Captain Marvel);  along with Every Walt Disney Comic Book from their first year through about 1955 or so.  I kept that stuff in a huge quilt box in our garage along with about 500 lead and steel soldiers which I had collected through the years.  Then one day after my Dad passed away in 1956, and we were getting ready to move, I called in all the little kids in the neighborhood and gave all that stuff away.  Of course there is no telling what all that stuff would be worth today but I know it would probably be in the mid to high six-figure range.

September 16th, 2015    COLUMNS

 

Wednesday - September 16, 2015

 

Greetings once more from the President Of The Jingoistic Vast Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

COLUMNS:

 

There were a number of columns in the (Sub) Standard Times this past week and many of them caught my eye.  Of course there were several others that dealt with strictly local matters which I won't address but some of these could not help but warrant a bit of attention.

 

Of course there were several articles regarding the ceremonies at Ground Zero on September 11th. But the article which caught my eye in the (Sub) Standard Times was a short one accompanying a photograph of the world's most articulate and intelligent human and his jug butted spouse.  They graced the American people with a "Moment Of Silence" on the South Lawn of the White House.  WOW! Really went to a lot of trouble didn't they?  As a matter of fact the article said, "In Washington, President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama stepped out of the White House for a moment of silence at 8:46 A.M. The article went on to say that there was also a ceremony at The Pentagon which was attended by Ash Carter BUT  NOT  THE  PRESIDENT  OF  THE  UNITED  STATES.

--------------

 

One article written by Robert Dillon suggested that Alexander Hamilton be left on the Ten Dollar Bill but suggested that Andrew Jackson should be removed from the Twenty Dollar Bill and be replaced by former slave and civil rights activist Harriet Tubman.  Of course the article went on to degrade former President Andrew Jackson primarily citing Jackson's "cruelty and racism of his Indian removal policy".  And of course the article went on to paint Jackson as an "aggressive defender of slavery".  So I guess we might all just be prepared for either Alexander Hamilton or Andrew Jackson to be replaced on our currency.  Of course when we were in elementary school in Houston, we had to learn the denominations from the $1 up to the  $100,000 and they were:

 

$1 .................. George Washington

$2 .................. Thomas Jefferson

$5 .................. Abraham Lincoln

$10 ................ Alexander Hamilton*

$20 ................ Andrew Jackson

$50 ................ Ulysses S. Grant

$100 .............. Benjamin Franklin*

$500 .............. William McKinley

$1,000 ........... Grover Cleveland

$5,000 ........... James Madison

$10,000 ......... Salmon P. Chase*

$100,000 ....... Woodrow Wilson

 

* Of course none of these men were President of the United States however Alexander Hamilton and Salmon P. Chase were Treasury Secretaries and Benjamin Franklin is not only one of our founders but was one of the most brilliant men on the planet.

 

And make no mistake about it, Andrew Jackson is not one of my all time favorite Presidents but I believe that this is just another "Change For The Sake Of Change" which I find absurd.

--------------------------

Then we had an article which advised us that San Angelo, Texas was to "Host the 2016 Port-To-Plains" conference.  I don't know how many of you remember this magnificent plan about a huge super-freeway which would run from the West Coast of Mexico to Canada and if I remember correctly, the "Trans-Texas-Corridor" was to be part of this great idea.  Of course the property owners along the "Trans-Texas-Corridor" were not at all enthused over the deal.  I also remember a number of years back sending out maps of this proposed monster freeway and if memory serves me correctly, the deal got shot down in a number of states.

Ah, but that did not slow down the group known as the "Port-To-Plains Alliance".  And this leads me to believe that hosting the 2016 "Port-To-Plains" conference  will rank somewhere between a celebration of the birthdays of Al Sharpton and a Root Canal.  I also seem to remember that the State of Oklahoma was dead set against a single mile of this corridor running through their state.

---------------------

Then we had a probing editorial column which headlines read:  EXPLAIN  SURGE IN  DPS  TICKETS  TO  HISPANICS.  This article went on to point out that in the five year period between 2009 and 2014 approximately 49,000 more Hispanics received traffic citations from the Texas DPS in 2014 than in 2009.  OK. Let me try to explain to the crack editorial staff of the (Sub) Standard Times a couple of items which could account for  additional traffic stops of Hispanic drivers.

I believe it was a fairly well published fact that the Texas counties along the border with Mexico had received a huge increase in DPS Trooper activity during those years when all of the news of the illegal border crossings made headlines on a daily basis.

And, I also seem to remember all of the media telling us that the Latino population was the largest single ethnic increase in the United States.  And if this is so, I would have to think that the largest increase would be in those states which had a common border with Mexico.  For those of you who reside in the Sanctuary People's Republic of San Francisco.... those would be the States of California; Arizona; New Mexico; and Texas.

 

BUT, I do not believe that this piercing article had a damn thing to do with Latinos receiving an increase in the number of traffic citations.  It is simply another typical Liberal/Democrat/Socialist move to try and divide our population by lying their asses off.

--------------------------

BALTIMORE  MAYOR:  NO  RUN FOR  RE-ELECTION.

 

'Nuff said.  I am sure that most of you will tighten your belts and suck it up and try to work your way through  the uncontrollable  grief you must be feeling over this tragic news.

-------------------------

There was news this week that Queen Elizabeth had reached a milestone in British history. On Wednesday, September 9th, 2015 at approximately 5:30 P.M. , Queen Elizabeth II became the  longest-reigning monarch in British History.  Serving as Sovereign for 23,226 days (63 years, 7 months) she surpassed her Great-Grandmother, Queen Victoria in length of time on the British throne.

 

Although this article didn't mention it, I saw a piece that reported how the then Princess Elizabeth helped during World War II in caring for the British wounded and doing other type of war time duties.

 

Several years back, my wife and I were visiting some friends in Zagreb, Croatia and we met a really interesting lady who was born in Croatia but had married a British Soldier.  This great lady had lost her husband but she told of his being decorated TWICE by Queen Elizabeth with some type of British Gallantry Medal, I believe, but she did say it was the highest civilian decoration awarded.  She said he also received the Military medal which was just below the Victoria Cross.  She said that she was a huge fan of Queen Elizabeth. This little woman was in her mid eighties and this was in 1997.  She had been stationed in India with her husband when he was in the British Army.
What was really cool was that every time she mentioned her husband she would refer to him as:  "My late husband, The Colonel, who incidentally was the finest gentleman I have ever known".

I spent several mornings at a sidewalk coffee shop talking with this little lady.  She had been a professor at Oxford and  was a huge fan of Sir Winston Churchill AND also of Lady Margaret Thatcher...... and so am I.

QUOTES:

 

"Man is not made to be trusted for life, if secured against all liability to account."............ THOMAS JEFFERSON (On The Judiciary)

 

"This member of government was at first considered as the most harmless of all its organs.  But it has proved that the power of declaring what law is, ad libitum, by sapping and mining, slying, and without alarm, the foundations of the Constitution, can do what open force would not dare to attempt."... THOMAS  JEFFERSON

 

"They are the most disagreeable of people...Their insincerity?  Can you not feel a sense of disgust at the arrogant presumption of superiority of these people? Superiority of intellect!  Then, when it comes to practice, down they fall with a wallop not only to the level of ordinary human beings but to a level which is even far below the average."................ WINSTON CHURCHILL (On Leftists)

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK  HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

There are a couple of old sayings unique to the State of Texas.  Here are a couple of them regarding the different seasons:

"Texas has only two seasons.....deer and quail"

"Texas has only two seasons.....football and spring football

 

And if you live in Texas either of them seems correct. Deer season is a month or so off but FOOTBALL  SEASON  is here.  Our San Angelo area has several pretty good teams with Central High School of San Angelo leading the way in Class 6A. Then we have the Wall Hawks of Wall, Texas which is a few miles South of San Angelo and they are tough every year in pretty well all boys and girls sports.  Wall is in Class 3A.

 

But since moving to San Angelo, Texas I have become a real fan of Texas 6 Man (Class 1A) football.  The Six Man game is pretty fast moving and generally has lots of scoring.  The 6 Man field is 80 yards  long rather than the traditional 100 yards.  A first down requires  the team to move the ball 15 yards rather than 10 and on extra points a run or a pass for the point counts 1 point while kicking the extra point counts as 2 points.  Now if this seems strange to you, just remember there are only 6 players per side.  You have the center, of course, the holder, and the kicker.  So half of your kicking team is concentrating on kicking the ball accurately while you have all six defensive players rushing the kicker.  Believe me, if you can kick an extra point against those odds then it should count 2 points.

 

Anyway, the Texas Six Man football program is lots of fun to watch.  And one of the best games I ever saw was a playoff game with the Strawn Greyhounds playing another team from another part of the state.  The game was played at a neutral site and as well as I remember, Strawn won the game something like 108 to 96.  Both teams had speed and good passers and exceptional receivers and runners.  Of course in order to run the ball, the runner must either receive a pitch or a hand off from the first back to touch the ball from the center.  I believe the absolute hardest tackle I ever saw at any level  was in that game.  A good clean hit that I am sure Ronnie Lott would classify as a "Woooo Hit". And for those of you who do not know, that is a hit that is heard throughout the stadium which causes the fans from both sides to utter the phrase.........." Woooooo."

 

I guess that one of the reasons I have become such a fan of this classification is that many of these kids will never play another down of organized football.  Much of it has to do with the size of the young men playing the game.  Speed is much more important than size in this game  but occasionally you will see a kid who is over six feet tall and weighs in excess of 200 pounds who is also very fast.

 

Anyway,  my favorite season is here at last and one of my really good friends who has coached for years at that level came out of retirement a few years back and is back coaching at the six man level.  He took over a team which was winless in 2014 and after a rocky start won last week end.  His team.... The Veribest Falcons.

-----------------

Well tonight we will be treat..... no let me make that SUBJECTED TO the second Republican Debate.  It is rather sad to see to what depths the political races have allowed themselves to plunge.  To me, these debates are about as interesting to watch as some of the reality shows.  Reality Shows and Social Media have pretty much ruined television programming in my opinion. On damn near every so called new program,  they give us all an opportunity to send them either an e-mail or a Twitter message.

I suppose it is best that I do not Tweet;  or Twitter;  or do Facebook;  or take Selfies;  or  post Hash Tags or even Text.  I am afraid that the Social Media world would be a bit shocked at my command of dispariging terminology or just plain bad talking.

------------------

Does anyone else have any suspicions that just perhaps that ISIS/ISIL or some other Muslim Terrorist group just might attempt to sneak the odd terrorist into our country under the guise of a Middle-Eastern Refugee?  I am sure that our government is clueless in detecting any type of skullduggery while we are accepting up to 10,000 Syrian Refugees.  They either have to be: CLUELESS, STUPID,  LYING, or perhaps a little of all three.

September 2nd   INSANE

Wednesday - September 2, 2015

 

Hello once again from The Home For Politically Incorrect Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Four Wheel Drive Fossil Fuel Burners Of West Texas.

 

INSANE:

 

In my Random House Webster's School And Office Thesaurus there are a multitude of words and phrases which are used to define INSANE/INSANITY.  So here we go.

INSANE - mentally deranged; not of sound mind; crazed/crazy;  demented;  maniacal; bereft of reason; not in touch with reality; mentally disordered; unbalanced; unhinged; idiotic; senseless; unreasonable; imbecilic; and the list goes on.  Of course there is one version which defines INSANE or INSANITY as someone who keeps repeating the same act over and over again and expecting different results.

 

So, just take your pick when I say that our country is on the verge of complete INSANITY.  It  was pretty hard for me to believe that  a majority of American voters could see what Barack Hussein Obama and his policies did in his first 4 year term and actually elect him for a second 4 year term.  We are now 7/VII/siete/seven years into a steady diet of far left Socialist activities perpetrated upon us by a criminal administration.

 

AND, what I fear most is that these same voters, many of whom like to call themselves "Millennials", will turn out in record numbers and give us another FOUR  YEARS of someone at least as bad if not WORSE than the present occupant of the White House.

 

I would appear to me as if Barack Hussein Obama and his criminal administration along with many members of the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives have just about taken us over the edge like a bunch of lemmings.  Only,  we did not follow them over the edge.... they are doing their best to PUSH us over the edge.

 

What really borders on criminal insanity is the fact that the Republican Party in the off year elections took control of both the Senate and the House BUT business still goes on just as if Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi were running both of those bodies.  Of course you all know my personal opinion of House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. They have passed themselves off as "Conservatives" when in reality they lie to and cheat the American public just like Pelosi and Reid.

 

It is a small wonder that at this moment, the Republicans who are leading in the polls to be the Republican Presidential Candidate are ALL  NON  POLITICIANS..... at least for now.  To me the three leaders all leave something to be desired insofar as real leadership goes BUT  I would rather take a chance on any of them over the Democrat Front Runner.... HILLARY  CLINTON. Of course it is still early but Mrs. Clinton is already experiencing some problems, support wise, from her own Democrat/Progressive/Socialist Party.

 

We already know that the MILLENNIALS will vote in step with whichever Liberal/Democrat/Socialist/Marxist is their candidate.

 

What I do not now, nor have I ever been able to understand why so called Conservative Republicans waste time in trying to garner the votes of people and groups who WILL  NEVER  VOTE  FOR  ANYONE  OTHER  THAN  A  LIBERAL DEMOCRAT/SOCIALIST. Earlier this morning I heard someone talking on a radio program stating that the Republicans are hesitant to confront Hillary Clinton as they are afraid that this will cost them the "Women's Vote". OK, I'm only going to say this once: THE  WOMEN'S  RIGHTS  SPECIAL  INTEREST  GROUPS  WILL NEVER VOTE  FOR  ANYONE  OTHER  THAN  A  LIBERAL  DEMOCRAT!  And anyone who thinks otherwise, I will brand as INSANE.

 

Hillary Clinton and the Democrat Party and the Obama Administration as a whole have lied to us from the beginning. They have ALL been caught in a multitude of lies and yet it seems as if the Republicans who are in a position to do something are content to just not rock the boat.

Let me tell all of those people that if you do not rock the boat right now when the boat is ready to be rocked.... then you can forget The United States Constitution ever existed and your liberty will be a thing of the past.

 

To continue down the path which the majority of our present PROFESSIONAL  POLITICIANS  FROM  BOTH  PARTIES have been leading us for the past 7 years is INSANE.

QUOTES:

 

"Even those of us who are not supporters of either Donald Trump or Jeb Bush can learn something by comparing how each of these men handled  people who tried to disrupt their question-and-answer period after a speech..... After Jeb Bush's speech, hecklers from a group called Black Lives Matter caused Bush to simply leave the scene. When Trump opened his question-and-answer period by pointing to someone in the audience who had a question, a Hispanic immigration activist who had not been called on simply stood up and started haranguing. Trump told the activist to sit down because someone else had been called on.  But the harangue continued, until a security guard escorted the disrupter out of the room.  And Jeb Bush later criticized Trump for having the disrupter removed.......What  kind of President would someone make who caves in to those who act as if what they want automatically overrides other people's rights -- that the rules don't apply to them?"...... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"No small part of the internal degeneration of American society has been a result of supposedly responsible officials caving in to whatever group is currently in vogue, and allowing them to trample on everyone else's rights".......... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"We do not need to risk still worse consequences if we get yet another President of the United States who acts as if it is just a question of whose ox is gored." ......................  THOMAS  SOWELL 

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.".....

MORE STUFF:

 

In line with what Dr. Thomas Sowell said in his article of September 1st, 2015, I could not support nor could I vote for any candidate who is weak enough to be shouted off a stage by some loud special interest group.  It appears as if  Democrat/SOCIALIST Candidate, Bernie Sanders also falls into that category.  He was also not only shouted off the stage but physically  run off the stage of one of his rallies by.... you guessed it.... "BLACK  LIVES  MATTER".

 

While I am no great supporter of Donald Trump, I must complement him upon the manner in which he handled, not only UNIVISION hack Jorge Ramos, but also the manner in which he didn't take a load of crap off Megyn Kelly in the first Presidential Debate.  AND it was high time that someone got in Megyn Kelly's face.  I have lost all respect for her.  And I never really had any respect for Jorge Ramos.  But they both have something in common now.  They are on my shit list.... which is growing larger by the day.

I can remember a few elections back when Newt Gingrich in their first debate of that year got in the middle of one of the news people who was moderating the debate forum.  Gingrich got in the middle of this guy's ass and got a great response from the audience.  Then in the second debate of that year, he waffled and tried to play nice with a bunch of slugs who hated him. 

At least I will give Trump credit in that he hasn't changed his tune a bit.... at least at this point.

-------------

OK.  Let me make sure I have this right;

 

1)  We have Iran on the verge of getting a nuclear weapon

2)  We have police officers all around the country are being murdered primarily by black males

3)  We have Americans, Christians, Non-Radical Muslims being sold into slavery or murdered by ISIS/ISIL

4)  We have two television news people being murdered ON  CAMERA by a black male

5)  We have Planned Parenthood butchering babies for body parts to illegally sell

6)  We have terrorist acts being perpetrated all over the world against Americans and American interests.

 

BUT, the President of the United States  has decided that going to Alaska to discuss Climate Change AND to CHANGE THE NAME OF MT.  MCKINLEY TO  MOUNT DENALI and to appear on some kind of "REALITY  TELEVISION  SHOW".
It appears as if Barack Hussein Obama either doesn't have a clue ..... OR..... simply doesn't care.

Oh, and we also have the pressing problem of which female's  likeness will appear on the $10 bill.  It evidently has boiled down to HARRIET TUBMAN or SUSAN B. ANTHONY.  Wow, I sure hope the $10 bill will be as popular as the Susan B. Anthony Dollar.

 

I heard one politician say that Alexander Hamilton was never a President of the United States.  No.... but neither was Benjamin Franklin who appears on the $100 bill.  AND I have searched far and wide and cannot locate any information source which shows that either Susan B. Anthony OR  Harriet Tubman ever were a U.S. President.  I will still submit  that creating a new $3 Bill and having Janet Napolitano's likeness on the face might make some sense.

 

Just more political correctness and caving in.  I am sure Jeb Bush would go for it. It seems as if he folds like a cheap tent at every turn.

------------------

Here is an interesting bit of information that I got out of the (Sub) Standard Times.  The article headlined;  ZIMBABWE  PARK  LION  KILLS  SAFARI  GUIDE.  The article went on to describe the situation and it seems as if this Safari Guide was leading a group of tourists in the same National Park in Zimbabwe that was home to Cecil the Lion who was killed by an American Bow Hunter.  Evidently there were some new cubs with the lion group and the guide made a move to scare the lions away from the tour group.  One of the male lions.  And like Cecil, this lion Nxaha, was also wearing a collar.  Doesn't appear as if the collar does much good on either side of the coin.  Anyway, apparently  the anti-hunting group is still more upset with the loss of a lion than the loss of a human.  Apparently in Zimbabwe... ALL LIVES  DO  NOT  MATTER.

---------------

I am sure that I will upset some when I once again inform everyone that  I DO  NOT;

Twitter

Tweet
Text
Take Selfies

Do Face Book

Do ANY  Social Media

 

Here is the story of a guy in Houston, Texas who evidently did several of these things which ended up with his ass in a sling.  According to an article in the (Sub) Standard Times a convicted felon named Robinson posted messages on TWITTER and other SOCIAL MEDIA SITES showing him in possession of firearms.  He also allegedly made threatening remarks about shooting people and using firebombs against his enemies.  I don't guess that it ever dawned on him that as a convicted felon, he could not legally possess firearms and of course also since he was on probation/parole, that and any other threats he made were grounds for evidently revoking his parole/probation  and sending him back to prison.
Say, it almost sounds like he could be a candidate for a cabinet post or a State Department Spokesperson for the Obama Administration.

---------------------

And for my final comment today, I must confess that I DID  NOT watch the MTV Music Awards program. However, I shall make up for it by NOT  WATCHING The Academy Awards or The Grammys programs.  I did get exposed to a film clip of KANYE  WEST receiving the coveted MICHAEL JACKSON VIDEO VANGUARD AWARD.  I have always thought that KANYE  WEST was a complete idiot and this short film clip removed all doubt.  After receiving this award, KANYE  WEST had a few thoughts to pass on to us all about the MILLENNIALS.  I was really impressed with West's command of the English Language.  In one rambling sentence he said that "The MILLENNIALS GON'  teach "THEY" children" and went on rambling about whatever it was he was talking about.  The thought flitted across my mind that I sure hoped that the MILLENNIALS WERE  NOT  GON'  depend upon KANYE  WEST to teach "THEY" children English. Then of course he went on to let us know that he was planning on running for President in 2020. I was pretty well caught up in the excitement of that bit of news. And of course in keeping with MILLENNIAL  STANDARDS, they reported that Miley Cyrus made the customary ass out of herself.

--------------

OOPS! I lied, my last comment has to do with one of the professors at a  major university has informed his students that using the words;  MALE, FEMALE,  or ILLEGAL would result in having their grade reduced.  HEY!  How 'Bout That For Freedom Of Speech?

August 19th, 2015   PERCEPTIONS / REFLECTIONS

 

Wednesday - August 19, 2015

 

Greetings from a completely Worn Out, Trumped Out, Obamad Out, Still Jingoistic West Texan.

PERCEPTIONS:

 

I realize that many people can see the same thing but have different perceptions of what they saw. I have seen this for years when speaking to eyewitnesses to various crimes.

 

I think a really good example of this might be the different perceptions of New York Mayor Bill De Blasio.  Obviously the majority of the voters in the past New York City election perceived Bill De Blasio as someone who would bring their city back to prominence.   Many of us, however, perceived Bill De Blasio as a complete dud who would make decisions which would put the citizens of New York City in greater danger than most previous city administrations.  It appears from the state of affairs at the present time, those of us who viewed De Blasio as a complete MUTT  as a  City Leader were CORRECT.

 

Another example of opposite perceptions in my eyes would be the different perceptions of Baltimore, Maryland Mayor Stephanie Rawlings Blake.  Once again the majority of the Baltimore voters in the last Mayor's election labored under the false perception that Stephanie Rawlings Blake would lead their city in the right direction. Meanwhile, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings Blake has shown herself to be a liar and a totally incompetent leader of their city government.

 

Now let us look at the present leader of the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist/Marxist party's race to be their candidate for President of the United States in 2016.  AND THAT  WOULD  BE......... Hillary  Rodham  Clinton.  It appears as if this absolutely dead cinch to win her party's nomination has..... how shall I phrase it?  Oh yeah,  whizzed   in her Wheaties.  AND it also seems as if  the  original  perception of  the liberal main stream media that Ms. Clinton crapped peach ice cream is undergoing some rather drastic changes.   When the ultra-liberal Washington Post starts to slam this lyin' heifer then things are not proceeding well for the Democrats/Progressives/Marxists in general nor for Ms. Clinton in particular.  And it might be proper at this present time to point out that my personal perception of Hillary Rodham Clinton ranked somewhere below a Colonoscopy and a Root Canal.  For those of you currently residing in The People's Republic of San Francisco, that would be about as low as one could get on the popularity scale.

 

It seems as if Ms. Clinton has a bit of a problem with her arithmetical skills.   We have watched this squack tell the American people on any number of occasions that she had NEVER  RECEIVED or SENT A  SINGLE  CLASSIFIED  E-MAIL on her PRIVATE  SERVER.  However, earlier today I noticed in several articles that there appear to be over 300 classified  e-mails that somehow made their way through her clutches.   One must wonder if perhaps her troop of flying monkeys may have had access to the Clinton computer.  It appears as if Ms. Clinton might have overstepped her control over the media and the Department of Justice.   Of course, I could be mistaken on the DOJ as I have not seen any real strong indications that they are all that interested in investigating Ms. Clinton's shenanigans.

 

One other Hillary E-Mail item.  Last evening they showed a video of the front of the building which housed the "Platte Rive Networks" and apparently it is in a closet of a loft apartment in this building.  A big sign on the front of the building said "AJAX".   If this is the kind of security subscribed to by the then Secretary of State, then I have to wonder if perhaps Hillary Clinton and Wile E. Coyote have pretty much the same type of suppliers.  Wile E. Coyote uses "ACME" products  while Hillary uses some privately run E-Mail Server service run out of a closet in a loft located in the "AJAX" building.

 

If the Department of Justice allows this lyin' squack to get away with this then my perception of federal law enforcement will be down the tubes.

 

REFLECTIONS:

 

A couple of days back I received an e-mail video showing scenes of Los Angeles in the late 1950s and early 1960s.  This brought back some memories to me as I took my family to the Los Angeles area in 1964 then again in 1967 and again in 1969.   We had relative on my wife's side of the family who lived in Los Angeles,  Thousand Oaks, and Simi Valley and some friends from Houston whose family resided in Palm Springs.   During all three of those trips we had a great time and took lots of side trips and really enjoyed ourselves.  One of the trips we also visited a couple of friends who had a talent agency on Sunset Blvd. and visited with them.   They took us out to some really great night spots and super restaurants.   Also in 1967, the Houston Astros were playing a series with the Dodgers and we got to see a couple of those games.

 

In 1964, on our first family trip to Los Angeles, I also got to go to the Dallas Cowboys training facility in Thousand Oaks and watch some of the all time great Dallas players go through their drills.  I never had a bad experience in Los Angeles and yearned to return for a visit. 

 

The next time we were in California we went to Susanville which is in the Northern part of the state for the graduation from a Junior College of one of our young Croatian students whom we had met in Hobbs.  Her sister had flown in from Croatia.  On this trip we flew into Reno, NV and rented a car and drove to Susanville.  It was a beautiful area and we were treated like royalty by the people in Susanville.  It is a small town and the people there were as friendly as those in West Texas.

 

The last time we went to California, we drove there.  This was in 2000 when this same girl was graduating with honors from a Menlo College in Atherton, CA.   The young lady's parents and sister also came to her graduation from Croatia.  We stayed in San Jose, CA which was alright but trips to the San Francisco area left me a bit empty.  The weather was bad and other than getting to visit with the Croatian family whom we had visited in their country in 1997, I did not enjoy this area all that much.  When we drove back to New Mexico we came the Southern Route and went through Los Angeles on our way back.  It was a different world from the area we had visited in the early and mid 1960s and any ideas I might have harbored  to return there for a visit left the building faster than Elvis.   The Los Angeles of the late 1950s and early 1960s  was really great.  Not so much in the 2000s.

But I guess that can be said of all large metropolitan areas.  Austin, Texas at one time was a great place to visit but they have grown so damn fast that their infrastructure has not kept up with their growth.

And of course my old home town, Houston, Texas has experience such a rapid growth that it is almost unrecognizable now.  There are literally multi-story office buildings and huge shopping centers in areas where my friends and I went camping when we were in middle school.

 

I can look back and realize how very fortunate I was to have grown up and spent my entire school life from Kindergarten through High School in the 1940s and 1950s in Houston, Texas.  Of course we still have some family and lots of old friends and co-workers who still live in Houston but I don't believe there is a way on earth to convince me to move back in that area.

There is a small section of one page in the (Sub) Standard Times which keeps us informed on the absolute latest on entertainment trends and the Hollywood crowd.  AND, this morning.... just like many other mornings.... they mentioned a host of entertainers, NONE OF WHOM I had ever run across.  This is called the "People Plus" section and today they gave us the absolute latest  happenings in the lives of:

 

BuzzFeed - a video producer

Regina Hall - actress

Jason Derulo - pop singer

Wayne Brady - actor

 

I did not recognize any of their names nor any of their photos.

------------------------

I heard earlier today that the head person for the "Black Lives Matter" activists is a...... dare I say it?   A white man.

OK.  Let's see now.... the head of the NAACP in one of the West Coast cities is a ....... dare I say it?    A white female.

Most of the video I have seen of the activists in the Black Lives Matter movement all have their hands raised and holding signs saying "Hands Up Don't Shoot" and of course many of them are screaming this phony phrase.  Apparently they have not been made aware that the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" stuff was a load o' crap.  Of course if they subscribe to the Al Sharpton/Jesse Jackson measure of truth... it really doesn't matter.

-----------------------------------

I listened to one speech that Hillary made in which she said that changing the hearts and minds of people don't count for anything..... that GOVERNMENT involvement is the only thing that really brings change.   This should be a subtle hint that in the mind of Hillary Clinton, MORE  GOVERNMENT is the answer to all our problems.  Let's see now, isn't MORE  GOVERNMENT the answer to all our problems according to Barack Hussein Obama?  For that matter MORE  GOVERNMENT seems to be the formula prescribed by ALL DEMOCRATS/PROGRESSIVES/SOCIALISTS as well as  the ESTABLISHMENT  REPUBLICANS.   I am pretty sure that I will burst into flames the very next time I have to watch Karl Rove hold up his little chalk board to show all of the stupid people just exactly what he is talking about.  As a matter of fact,  show me the difference in Karl Rove and a whole host of the Democrat Strategists to whose opinions we are subjected  every day.

August 13th, 2015   DEBATE / INDUCTION

 

Wednesday - August 12, 2015

 

Greetings from the Jingoistic SUV Driving Fossil Fuel Burning Firearms Possessing Vast Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

DEBATE;

 

When I watched the so called Republican Debates with the "Top Ten" candidates I was taken back in time by the very first question posed by FOX News Moderator Bret Baier. If you remember, this was the "Show Of Hands" question. I was immediately reminded of sitting in Mrs. Comer's third grade classroom at Edgar Allen Poe Elementary School in Houston, Texas. I can recall some "Show Of Hands" instances in my first three years of public school education but I have not been asked as an adult for a "Show Of Hands" that I can recall.

First of all, the question regarding if the candidates would "Promise" not to:

 

1) Run as an independent if they did not get the Republican Nomination

2) Support the eventual nominee of the Republican Party

 

I was surprised that they were not asked to "Cross Their Hearts and Hope To Die" if they broke their promise.

 

Now, I know that I do not have the greatest formal education credentials on the planet but I could have predicted, even prior to him doing it, that "The Donald" would be the only one to raise his hand in response to this question.  And I am still not completely sure that the extremely brilliant panel of FOX News Moderators understood Trump's response to this idiotic and childish question.  When he did respond, he stated that he would have to RESPECT the eventual nominee. Then of course he went off on a "Toot-Your-Own-Horn" statement.

 

I decided at this point that this so called "Debate" was going to be the normal media BULLSHIT. (Yeah, that's right... one word).

 

Then shortly after this juvenile beginning we were treated to a classroom argument between Donald Trump (The smartest businessman in the universe) and Moderator Megyn Kelly, whom I thought asked a pretty stupid question of "The Donald". I considered the "War On Women" insinuation of Ms. Kelly's question to be fairly unimportant since this so called "Debate" only had a two hour time slot and TEN; DIEZ; X; 10 candidates. My opinion was that with all of the INTERNATIONAL and NATIONAL problems now facing our country that the questions for the candidates might have a bit more substance..... BUT that is just my opinion.

 

It actually was fairly obvious to me prior to the so called "Debate" that the FOX News hosts harped a bit to much on how in depth and tough their questions were going to be.

 

I thought that Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Dr. Ben Carson, Mike Huckabee and Scott Walker did a good job of answering the questions posed to them. I thought that "The Donald", Chris Christie, and Rand Paul came across as Spoiled, Self Centered, Petulant, Brats. I thought Jeb Bush looked as if he wished he were somewhere else. And that leaves us John Kasich. Of course since John Kasich is the Governor of Ohio, he received quite a loud reception from the audience, which was to be expected. I thought that Kasich did a pretty fair job on the relevant questions asked of him but then he was asked a "HYPOTHETICAL" question about how he would react if he had a "GAY DAUGHTER OR SON".  I thought his response was a bunch of POLITICALLY CORRECT HORSE CRAP!  He had to make sure that the nation knew that he had a "GAY FRIEND" and that he had attended a "GAY WEDDING".  I saw his answer as a bunch of politically correct garbage and I lost any respect I had for him for not being able to stick a "HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION" up the Moderating Panel's backside. If the panel is going to ask a "HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION" to one or all of the candidates, it should actually have something to do with Administration Policy or something a bit more germane to the job of President of the United States.

 

I thought that it was fairly obvious that some of the questions asked to some of the candidates were "GOTCHA" questions.

 

I also thought that the earlier so called "Debate" went better than the Main Event Debate. Of course in that earlier "Debate", Carly Fiorina appeared to be better prepared than the other candidates and she appeared to have handily won that fiasco.

 

Then after the "Debate" viewers were subjected to a whole bunch of hacks who gave their views on the Dog and Pony Show we had just watched. These networks, FOX included, evidently have little or no respect for the viewing public as they feel duty bound to tell us what we just saw and they act like we are too stupid to understand what we just viewed.  As far as I am concerned, Brit Hume is the most believable of ALL of the TV News people on ANY of the Cable Networks.

BUT, what really gets my backside red as a three ball is that we are going to be subjected to more of this crap. AND, don't forget we will also be treated/subjected to so called "Debates" from the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist Party.

 

Despite the "Debates" I have formed an opinion on why DONALD TRUMP seems to be so popular with Republican voters. And it is a fairly simple explanation.  DONALD TRUMP IS NOT A PROFESSIONAL POLITICIAN AND DOESN'T APPEAR TO  BE AFRAID TO ADDRESS SOME POLITICALLY INCORRECT ISSUES. I believe that what you have to be aware of though is that "The Donald" will on more than one occasion contradict himself.... or perhaps appear to just lie his ass off.

 

THEN, a day after the "Debates" on one of the FOX News day programs, three college students were interviewed and asked about their opinions on "The Debates" and these college students all appeared to possess the I.Q. of a bird feeder. One was a young lady who had a voice like one of David Seville's Chipmunks and two young men who obviously had their priorities headed in the right direction. ALL of them said that the one of the main things they were interested in seeing the next President address was.................... yep, you guessed it............ COLLEGE STUDENT LOANS.

 

Now, I don't have a son or daughter in college and I am aware that the college tuitions are higher than ever.  BUT, almost every single day I see and talk to young people who are college students who are.....dare I say it?  WORKING TO PAY THEIR OWN WAY OR WORKING TO HELP THEIR PARENTS PAY FOR THEIR EDUCATION. What a novel idea. For some reason, I think that our nation has a few more pressing problems than making sure that future college students don't have to re-pay their college loans. Funny thing is, I know a whole bunch of people who attended various colleges and universities throughout the nation who are now highly paid professionals AND THEY NEVER HAD A GOVERNMENT GUARANTEED  STUDENT LOAN.  So much for the so called MILLENIALS.   

 

INDUCTION:

 

Now, while I am pretty well down on the NFL and Professional Sports in general I did enjoy last Saturday's program on the Induction into the NFL Hall of Fame of two former Front Office people, Bill Polian and Ron Wolf and former players Charles Haley (DE - Dal. - San Fran.); Mick Tinglehoff (C - Minn.); Tim Brown (WR - Raiders); Jerome Bettis (RB -Pitt.); Will Shields (G - Kan. City);  Junior Seau (LB - San Diego - NE).

 

All of these men contributed a great deal to their respective teams and to the NFL. Some of their stories about their climb to the NFL Hall of Fame were pretty interesting. I though that Charles Haley was one of the more humorous inductees. Of course the offensive linemen who had to play against him probably did not find much humor in their weekly contacts with him. What I really thought was important was the message that Haley passed on to younger players insofar as their conduct and not being afraid to ask for help. Of course, Charles Haley is the ONLY Hall of Fame Inductee to have FIVE SUPER BOWL RINGS; Two with the San Francisco Forty Niners and Three with the Dallas Cowboys.

 

I was also pleased to see the induction of former Minnesota Vikings Center, Mick Tinglehoff. Tinglehoff was actually a linebacker when he entered the league but made the switch pretty early as the Vikings needed a center. And keep in mind, he played back in the days when the defensive linemen could slap you in the head and do everything short of use a weapon in order to defeat the offensive linemen. In watching film of Tinglehoff he was an absolutely outstanding blocker and he also had to protect Fran Tarkenton who required some really special protection as he was the first really elusive scrambling quarterback I can remember seeing play in the NFL. Tarkenton made the acceptance speech for Tinglehoff and lots of people wondered why. I remember reading something back a good while that Tinglehoff was suffering from dementia and evidently made a last minute decision to have Tarkenton make his acceptance speech Tinglehoff was UNDRAFTED in 1962 out of Nebraska but started 240 consecutive games at center for the Minnesota Vikings. That is remarkable. He played 17 years at the same position for the same team which is also remarkable.

Jerome Bettis and Tim Brown both honored their college coach from Notre Dame, Lou Holtz.  I always liked Lou Holtz and thought he was plenty funny. I can remember one year, I believe it was 1977, when he was the head coach at Arkansas. Arkansas came in SECOND in the Southwest Conference. Texas won the Conference and went to the Cotton Bowl and Arkansas received a bowl bid from the Orange Bowl where they played the #2 ranked Oklahoma Sooners on New Years Day, 1978. The day prior to the game, Lou Holtz suspended two starters with one of them being his starting running back. I can recall Oklahoma Coach Barry Switzer in an interview saying that he didn't think it was a question of Oklahoma winning but how bad the win would be.  Arkansas defeated Oklahoma 31-6. Both Brown and Bettis had high praise for the things they had learned from Lou Holtz, who was present at the ceremony.

 

All in all it was a really nice ceremony with the daughter of Junior Seau making the acceptance speech for her deceased Father. She did an exceptional job.

QUOTES:

 

"The so called debates, among too many Republicans to have a debate, are yet another painful sign of how much words and ideas have degenerated in our times. No one expects these televised sound bites and gotcha questions to be anything like the historic Lincoln-Douglas debates on the momentous national issue of slavery."................... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"But the mob scene of candidates on stage that began with the 2012 campaign, and is now being repeated, is a big step down from the modern one-on-one debates between presidential candidates that began with John F. Kennedy versus Richard Nixon in 1960..... We still have momentous national issues,. In fact, the threat of a nuclear Iran with intercontinental missiles is a threat to the survival of American and of Western civilization. The issue could not be bigger..... But this issue did not get even half the attention as was lavished on Donald Trump. Even in the earlier debate among the second-tier candidates, where Trump was not present, the first question asked was about Donald Trump."............... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"After more than six years of Barack Obama in the White House, have we learned nothing about the dangers of choosing a President of the United States on the basis of sound bites, with no track record to check against his rhetoric?"........ THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

The day after the NFL Hall of Fame ceremony we learned of the death of former New York Giant running back/receiver/defensive back, Frank Gifford who has been a long time member of the Hall of Fame. The very first NFL Championship game that I watched on home television was the 1956 game between the New York Giants and the Chicago Bears. The Giants won that game 47 - 7 against a really tough Bears team. Lots of future Hall of Fame players in that particular game. When Frank Gifford first broke into the NFL he played on both offense and defensive. He started out as a running back who could also pass rather well. He played under NY Giants Offensive Coach Vince Lombardi. After his playing days, Frank Gifford turned to broadcasting and was with CBS when he first began that stage of his career. He later went to ABC where he was an announcer on the Wide World of Sports and also covered several Olympic Games. But his most memorable stint behind the broadcast microphone was when he hosted ABC's Monday Night Football with co-hosts "Dandy" Don Meredith and Howard Cosell.

 

I was privileged to have grown up watching Frank Gifford play and also listen to him announce various sporting events. The combination of Frank Gifford, Don Meredith, and Howard Cosell MADE Monday Night Football a huge success. I always thought he was a class act.

-----------------------

Also last week I read of the deaths of two of my favorite Movie Stars.... yes.... that's right .....STARS. I don't consider many of today's actors and actresses Stars. But these two beautiful red heads were popular back in the 1950s and 1960s. The two ladies to whom I am referring are Rhonda Fleming who died at age 92 and Arlene Dahl who died at age 90. They never were nominated for an Academy Award that I am aware of but they were both a class act and I do remember seeing Rhonda Fleming from a distance in person when we were in California visiting relatives in the mid 1960s. She was as beautiful in person as she was on the screen.

----------------------

Almost every day for the past week it appears as if Hillary Clinton's past is catching up with her. It almost appears to me as if the Obama Administration is hanging her butt out to dry. It doesn't appear to me as if they are taking the pains to cover for some of her.... how shall I put it....... SUSPECTED CRIMINAL ACTS.  I can still remember her at the airport with the families of the Americans MURDERED BY ISLAMIC TERRORISTS, making her little speech and completely placing the blame for the deaths of these Americans at the foot of the guy who released some YouTube video.  I believe that we now know that this was a LIE fabricated by the Obama Administration to cover their own asses for not providing the requested security to our people in Libya.

 

I personally hope that Obama and his band of merry men throw her to the wolves. Of course the wolves will have to deal with her band of flying monkeys in order to get to her.

-----------------------------

Also, I wrote my opinions on the Republican Debates yesterday and did not read Thomas Sowell's column until earlier today. So just in case anyone was thinking that I stole some of my thoughts from Dr. Sowell..........it just didn't happen that way.

---------------------------

Also, I have heard a few people......damn few........... make the statement that if Trump doesn't get the Republican nomination, that they hope he runs AS A THIRD PARTY INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE.  To that thought I have but one thing to say, and I will say it using a partial quote from George "Kingfish" Stevens from the old Amos n' Andy Show................ "DO DE' NAME H. ROSS PEROT RING A BELL?" I am sure that the "Black Lives Matter" group will accuse me of "Hate Speech".

 

In case "The Donald" does do this, I am afraid that it will hand over another election to a Clinton..... that is if she is not indicted prior to that.... but I am not counting too much on that.

August 5th, 2015 LOTS O' STUFF

 

 

Wednesday - August 5, 2015

 

Hello once again from probably the most member of The Fed Up Jingoistic SUV Driving Second Amendment Supporting Vast Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

LOTS O' STUFF:

 

Earlier this week I watched and listened to pure VARMINT, Chris Matthews ask another pure VARMINT, Debbie Wasserman Schultz to explain the difference between a DEMOCRAT and a SOCIALIST. Debbie Wasserman Schultz completely dodged the question and has not answered it to date as far as I know. OK. So for Varmint Matthews and Varmint Schultz, here is the difference:

DEMOCRATS are like a group of lemmings who are headed toward the edge of the cliff at break-neck speed. SOCIALISTS are like a group of lemmings who have already gone over the edge and are in the process of drowning in the sea. The results are the same....one just gets you there more rapidly.

------------------

I have heard about all I can stand about the killing of Cecil the Lion in Zimbabwe. Now I personally would not care to kill a large protected animal such as Cecil or any other wild animal which was protected for whatever reason. But please spare me all of the crap about how evil this dentist was to hunt animals in Africa. I am not convinced at this time that there is any proof that the hunter knew the animal was protected when he killed it. But I have heard enough from PETA and other special interest groups about how harmless lions are in general. Perhaps they should do a bit of a study and be made aware of the fact that when a dominant male (and usually there are at least two) take over a lion pride, the very first thing they do is to KILL ALL OF THE LION CUBS. This is done so that the females will come into heat and breed prodigiously with the new male lions. That is a fact. Keep also in mind that anytime a male lion runs across cheetah or leopard cubs, he kills them on sight. He also kills any hyena he can and it is not done for food purposes.

 

SO, while Cecil probably met with an early demise, his other option for an end of his life would be for two or more large mature male lions to gang up on him and either kill or cripple him so bad that he would normally starve to death.

---------------------

But what really gets my backside redder than a baboon with hemorrhoids, is when all of the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists were more concerned with the death of a large predator than they are with the activities of Planned Parenthood and their practice of selling human organs and body parts of aborted human beings. OH, and for those who wish to call this unborn human being a fetus, I bothered to look up the word fetus. According to the Random House Webster's Dictionary the definition of fetus is: unborn offspring. The Oxford Dictionary's definition is: an unborn baby of a mammal. Another Webster's New World Dictionary defines fetus as : the young of an animal in the womb. In the New Lexicon Encyclopedic Dictionary of the English Language, we have under fetus: a vertebrate that has passed the early stages of development (embryo) and attained the basic final form prior to parturition (the act of giving birth). Funny, I could not find a definition that indicated that a fetus was not alive.

 

But all that aside, the Planned Parenthood Organization, which receives something over 560 million dollars per year from our federal government. And for those of you who reside in the People's Republic of San Francisco.... THAT IS $560,000,000 OF OUR TAX DOLLARS. And another little item which has apparently passed over the heads of the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists, the selling of body parts is ILLEGAL when done in the manner selected by Planned Parenthood.

Then to top it all off, the Senate brought forth a bill to DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD and it did not pass. Two Democrat Senators actually voted FOR the bill but it was not enough to put the vote at the 60 votes necessary. And while I don't like Mitch McConnell at all, I understand his vote against the bill was procedural which would allow him to bring this matter up for another vote down the road.

 

I just wonder if they had a bill to build a statue of Cecil the Lion in the National Mall if they could have gotten the 60 votes needed?

---------------------------

I watched Elizabeth Warren yesterday speaking before the Senate to give her support to keep funding Planned Parenthood and this old squack inquired if the Republican Senators who supported the de-funding of Planned Parenthood were trying to take us back to the 50s. Well Elizabeth, I don't know how to put this other than taking us back to a 1950s brand of behavior and morality wouldn't be all that bad in my books.

Yes, I realize that back in the 50s there were some things which were acceptable that are not now and some of those things are better now.... but... if you listen to special interest groups, you would think that no progress has been made in the past 65 years. Of course those people will never be satisfied with anything other than total control over us all. But just stop and think of how students treated teachers back in the 1950s. Even if you did not personally like a certain teacher you knew better than to behave any way other than respectfully toward that teacher. And, parental control and respect was also the rule in the 50s. And all vehicles did not look exactly alike in the 1950s. I realize that you can never go back but at least when you are going forward, you can make a concerted effort not to blindly follow completely ridiculous policies set forth by a power hungry government that believes that government control over every aspect of our lives is preferable to freedom.

 

And please spare me from any further rhetoric by either Elizabeth Warren OR Hillary Clinton when they try to make us believe that ending the life function of an unborn infant is nothing more than another chapter of "The War On Women" and that Planned Parenthood clinics offer nothing more than advice on "Re-Productive Health Care".

 

To Hillary and Elizabeth, I would like to say that while I was born on a day, it wasn't yesterday.

-------------------------

OK. I watched the White House Press Secretary, Josh Ernest say that no one on the White House Staff has seen the videos showing the Planned Parenthood Doctors openly making deals to not only sell body parts and organs from aborted children but to use methods to try and deliver an Entire Cadaver for body parts sales.

But he did say that they had heard about it and that it sounded terrible.............. REALLY? Are we to believe that the world's most articulate human and his band of incompetents is basing their opinions on this matter on hearsay?

 

If this is true then I am pretty sure that all of the current White House Staff have all given their social security numbers and their bank account numbers to all of those Nigerian Princes who are trying to get their fortunes out of Mother Africa.

----------------------

 

I just finished watching Barack Hussein Obama deliver about a one hour speech on the Iran Nuclear Deal which he claims will pretty well save us all from any type of nuclear conflict. AND, during this speech, he also said that his administration had DONE MORE TO INSURE ISRAEL'S SECURITY THAN ANY PREVIOUS PRESIDENT.

 

His entire speech appeared to be just more of him bragging about how intelligent he and his minions really are.....and..... how stupid we are. If you believe a word this varmint says then you need to give your social security number and access to your bank account to the very next member of African Royalty who wishes to share their fortune with you.

 

I don't know about the rest of you but I have somewhat of a problem believing an Iranian leader who I watched chanting "Death To America" before the Iran governing body. Maybe it's just me but trusting this turd just isn't going to happen anytime soon.

MORE STUFF:

 

For several days now I have been watching film on a group calling themselves BLACK LIVES MATTER, and they are claiming that this group will disrupt the Republican Convention. OK, if this group has any hopes of being taken seriously, they should probably consider getting a spokesperson other than some screeching squack who looks like she combs her hair with a firecracker...... Then, of course what this group of slugs is really trying to say is... "ONLY BLACK LIVES MATTER". Sorry, that dog won't hunt.

-------------------------

I don't know if any of you have noticed that here of late, FOX News Host Megyn Kelly has become a bit snotty in a lot of her presentations. I realize that she is a very smart lady and is certainly a very pretty lady but I have noticed that she has began the habit of cutting off someone who is trying to answer a question. I have also grown a bit weary of her harping on how tough she and her fellow FOX News panel members are going to be with their questions to the 10 Republican candidates on their so called DEBATE on Thursday, May 6th. If you have 10 people on the stage.... please do not try to convince me that this dog and pony show is a DEBATE. It is more accurately, a CANDIDATE FORUM. I am sure that each candidate will get to state his views overall but realistically, there will not be enough time for each candidate to actually get into a DEBATE situation. SO, to Ms. Kelly and the rest of the FOX News team, don't try to convince me that chicken crap is chicken salad. Leave that to Hillary and the remainder of the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists.

------------------------

Good people, if you have been really paying attention this past couple of weeks you have already realized that as a nation we are headed toward that cliff and the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists are trying their level best to see that we go over the edge. I cannot think of a single election during my lifetime that is as important as the Presidential election of 2016. If we do not get a serious conservative in the White House in 2017, our country will slide into a second rate power. Keep this in mind: IT IS BETTER TO BE A NATION OF SHEEP BEING LED BY LIONS ....THAN TO BE A NATION OF LIONS BEING LED BY SHEEP.

July 29th, 2015 CLARIFICATION

 

 

Wednesday - July 29, 2015

 

Hello once more from the Primary Headquarters For Jingoistic Fed Up Conservative Fossil Fuel Burning Four Wheel Drive Pickup Owners Of West Texas.

 

CLARIFICATION:

 

I have received several e-mails which led me to believe that perhaps I was unclear in last week's letter regarding "Never Voting For Donald Trump". I had several inquiries asking if I would vote for Hillary over Donald Trump and of course that would never be possible.  The election to which I was referring was The Republican Primary Of Texas. And in that particular election, I can say that I would never vote for "The Donald" in that election. In the General Election in 2016, I am pretty sure that Hillary will be the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist/Marxist candidate and in that election I will vote for whomever gets the Republican nod.

And to clarify my feelings regarding "The Donald's" remarks about McCain's heroism being because he was captured and further adding that he "Likes People Who Were Not Captured", I thought was completely inappropriate, not because of McCain because if you will notice that John McCain is pretty high on the Varmint List. I have had no use for McCain for a number of years. But last week's comments did result in my receiving a number of e-mails of veterans who knew John McCain both from the Naval Academy and from serving in Vietnam.  I can say that I did not receive one single e-mail from people who knew McCain that professed any degree of respect or positive feelings toward the Arizona Senator.

I will stick by my statement that I think "The Donald" made an error in even bringing it up, not because of McCain, but I thought it showed disrespect to all of those people in the U.S. Military and even many civilians who have been taken prisoner, particularly since WW II. In the past I have mentioned a man who was our neighbor across the street in Hobbs, New Mexico who spent the entire Second World War as a POW of the Japanese. For a number of years I wasn't even aware of his story but later on learned of his experiences. His name was Bob McKelvey and not only was he probably the nicest man I have ever known, he was in my mind probably the toughest man I have ever personally known. I have known several other people in my life who were POWs in WW II; Korea; and Vietnam. And while I do not recognize McCain as a Senator worth respect, I would not denigrate him just because he was captured.

 

Now for some statements that I don't think need defending. I am referring to Senator Ted Cruz pointing out, on the floor of the U.S. Senate, the fact that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell had LIED to him and other Republican Senators. No sooner had this happened than Texas Senator John Cornyn and Utah Senator Orin Hatch felt duty bound to denounce Senator Cruz's statement regarding McConnell having a problem telling the truth. Both Cornyn and Hatch said that this incident where Cruz had called out McConnell was not within the acceptable DECORUM of the Senate. Yesterday I heard a friend say that he also thought that Cruz was out of line in calling McConnell a LIAR in front of the Senate. I have heard several people make the statement that the Senate and the House should be above any type of personal insults.

COUNT ME OUT of this bunch. I am a damn sight more interested in elected officials TELLING  THE TRUTH.  TELLING THE TRUTH comes in way ahead of my concerns over the Senate "Decorum". Someone pointed out that Senator Cruz had refused to bad mouth "The Donald" saying that he was not going to bad mouth fellow Republicans.  As I understood this statement, it was directed at OTHER  REPUBLICANS WHO WERE PRESENTLY RUNNING FOR THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDACY FOR THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL BALLOT. That is what I understood him to say and I believe that is what he meant. I don't believe that Senator Cruz intended for a fellow U.S. Senator, particularly a Republican Senator and the Senate Majority Leader to just flat out LIE about several things. Senator Cruz also pointed out that McConnell had blocked several Amendments to a Highway Funding Bill which had to do with the Iran Nuclear Deal requiring Iran to RELEASE FOUR AMERICAN CITIZENS CURRENTLY BEING HELD HOSTAGE IN IRAN and to DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD and to DEFUND OBAMACARE and I believe another having something to do with KATE'S LAW. According to one news source, McConnell claimed that he wanted those proposed Amendment to be Stand Alone Bills. OK, let's see how McConnell reacts when those items are submitted as Stand Alone Bills. I will wager that he will find other reasons to block votes on these bills.

And, I would like to call to everyone's attention the fact that in years past, the DECORUM OF THE SENATE, did not seem to be destroyed with the words and actions of some previous Senators.  I can remember on at least TWO PAST OCCASIONS during a break in proceedings, South Carolina Senator STROM THURMOND punched a fellow Senator over some differences of opinion. I guess I should point out that Strom Thurmond was a DEMOCRAT from 1948 -1964 and was a REPUBLICAN from 1964 -2003. I am sure that at least one of these punching events occurred when he was a DEMOCRAT... and perhaps both occurred when he was a member of that party.

 

ANYWAY, to my way of thinking, being truthful is a slam dunk winner over SENATE DECORUM. Also take a close look at the VARMINT LIST and you will find John Cornyn AND Orin Hatch occupying a slot. At one point in time I was a supporter of both Cornyn and Hatch. I cannot remember the specific event which got me crossways with Cornyn but I can remember Orin Hatch carving out a place for himself as a varmint right after "Fat Teddy's" demise. For those who might have forgotten, "Fat Teddy" was Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy. I believe that Hatch and McCain both found their way to the Varmint List by their wimpy ass positions regarding being such "GOOD FRIENDS" with "Fat Teddy".

 

SO, apparently neither Cornyn nor Hatch place HONESTY in a very high place on their list of priorities, which makes them no better than McCain or Lindsey Graham or Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid.

Republican Voters better take notice of the apparent disdain for the TRUTH common to so many elected officials..... at every level. I will support Senator Ted Cruz until he is either defeated or chooses to pull out of the Republican Race. BUT whomever the Republican Party ends up with, I will vote for over Hillary Clinton. I just hope they do not give the Mainstream Media or the Democrats/Socialists/Marxists or Karl Rove the opportunity to choose our candidate...... like they did in the past two elections.

 

And please take notice that Senator Cruz did not say that Majority Leader McConnell "MISSPOKE" or that the Majority Leader "WAS LESS THAN FORTHCOMING"...NOPE, he said that McConnell LIED. I am sick of Political Correctness and all this "My Good Friend" crap. Out of 100 elected officials, it is just not in the cards for all of them to be "Good Friends". SO, to Hell with DECORUM and TRUTH SHOULD BE TOLD AT ALL TIMES.

MORE STUFF:

 

In the (Sub) Standard Times this morning I read a story of an American hunter who killed a "Protected Lion" in one of the African countries. Apparently his guides had baited this protected lion off government owned land so that the American hunter could make the kill, with a crossbow. According to the article, the hunter had paid his African guides something like $50,000 for this lion hunt. Allegedly, the hunter was unaware that this particular lion, named Cecil, was protected by the African government. Of course the guides are in an African jail and evidently the American hunter has left the country.

 

But what I found interesting was the fact that one dead lion took precedence over God only knows how many human babies which are nothing but carriers of human organs to Planned Parenthood.  I am sorry that this lion was killed but I think a bit more coverage on just how criminal and uncaring are some of the top people in Planned Parenthood.  If the Senate and House do not DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD then there is something seriously wrong in our country. DEFUND THEM NOW!!!!

---------------------------

OH NO!!!!  I read where Democrat Representative from Philadelphia, CHAKA FATTAH has been indicted on 29 counts of racketeering involving a host of corruption schemes. Four associates were also indicted. Do you remember four or five years back when Chaka Fattah attempted to introduce some type of tax legislation, if my memory is correct, and I believe it had to do with paying a tax on every bank transaction conducted by every citizen. Of course this idiotic bill died in committee but it sure formed a lasting impression on me of just what a pure turd Representative CHAKA FATTAH really was. Incidentally his name, prior to CHAKA FATTAH, was Arthur Davenport. The name change was due to his mother whose name was Frances Brown. She changed her name to Falaka Fattah, to honor her African ethnicity, and also changed Arthur's name to Chaka. I would be about half-way surprised if either Falaka or Chaka could locate the African Continent on a world globe. Anyway, it sure appears as if some of Chaka's activities were a bit suspect.

------------------------------

Is it just me or do you find our large Military cuts seem to be occurring at a time when the world is at one of the most dangerous stages in our history? Oh, but I must have forgotten, John Kerry and Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz and Secretary of Defense Ash Carter are assuring us that all is well in the world. Of course, John Kerry has been a long time Varmint but Ernest Moniz (who reminds me of Al Sharpton back during his fat days) and Ash Carter (whose name still sounds like he should be a villain on Days of Our Lives), are fresh faces on the list.

-----------------------------------

A few days back I went to the Post Office and asked for 3 books of stamps. The clerk started to hand me 3 books of "Maya Angelou Commemorative Stamps). I asked if they had any other stamps and of course they had American Flag stamps and Purple Heart stamps so I requested the American Flag stamps. Now some of you are thinking that I declined the Maya Angelou stamps because she was black. Not true. I always try to use either American Flag or Purple Heart stamps but on occasion I will use some other patriotic stamp. I don't think I have ever read or heard one thing uttered or written by Maya Angelou that had any bearing whatsoever on my life. I think that she has been pushed off on us as some hidden talent whom we should all appreciate. WELL, I do not have much appreciation for her works and just to show y'all how unsophisticated I am, I also have little.. no make that NO USE for the works of Pablo Picasso or many of the so called great artists.

Anyway, the thought entered my mind that the U.S. Post Office had perhaps printed a few too many Maya Angelou stamps and were trying to get rid of them. I have an idea, sell them all to Chaka Fattah or Ash Carter or Ernest Moniz. They all appear to be stupid enough to buy them.

---------------------------------

I heard something this morning about attempting to make a decision regarding replacing the picture of Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill with a woman. One of the idiots pushing for this move pointed out that Alexander Hamilton was never a President of the United States and all the rest on our currency had been Presidents. Hmmm. I was just wondering during which years BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, who is on our $100 bill, was President of the United States? Evidently ALL of my American History teachers and professors must have skipped over that fact.

 

Once again folks. POLITICAL CORRECTNESS IS ONCE MORE RAISING ITS UGLY HEAD.

July 22nd, 2015 INSANITY

 

 

Wednesday - July 22, 2015

 

Hello once more from probably the Maddest Jingoistic Man In West Texas.

 

 

I lost my Prayer and Varmint List but I will probably have it back next week. But this week I have seen some things done by those in our government and those who desire to be part of our government that pretty well put me on TILT.

 

INSANITY:

 

Back in the 1950s and 1960s when many of us were still young, had you told your parents or grandparents what our country would look like after the year 2000, they would probably have had you examined for some type of serious mental problem. And, of course neither your parents, grandparents, or you yourself had any idea what the future would be like. I am sure we all had some ideas but I can guarantee you that I never thought our country would be in its present state of affairs.

 

Several things have happened over the past couple of weeks that make me question the mental stability of damn near all of our elected officials, particularly at the national level.... but there have also been some highly questionable actions taken by state and local officials. Let's just look at a few:

 

Now you all know that I am no fan of John McCain who as far as I am concerned is a VARMINT of the highest order. But this past week, Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump made the public statement that the only reason that John McCain was viewed as a hero was because he was captured and "The Donald" further went on to say that he preferred people who WERE NOT captured. In some circles, this statement put "The Donald" on everybody's shit list.... while in other circles, some thought it was cute. Once more, I do not like John McCain even a little bit and think he is a terrible Senator but if "The Donald" was going to bad mouth McCain, he could have found a bunch of other things on which to hang his hat. Then we found out that basically "The Donald" pretty much stole his lines about preferring those who were not captured over someone who was captured from an old alleged comedy routine by alleged comedian Chris Rock, whom I dislike at least as much as I dislike John McCain and "The Donald". But of course McCain himself has been guilty of name calling when he referred the large group of people who came to see Trump speak as... "all the CRAZIES". But this is probably turning out to be the political behavior of many in today's world. BUT, just count me in as a ONE OF THE CRAZIES, not because I like "The Donald" but I do support TED CRUZ whom John McCain referred to earlier as a "WHACKO BIRD". SO, I put McCain in with a growing group of people, which also includes Donald Trump, whom I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR!!

 

Moving right along, I never believed we would see a United States President who supported and valued the opinion of "THE GLOBAL COMMUNITY" over his own country. But we damn sure have one in office right now. Here is a man who still will not mention that RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISTS ARE THE ENEMIES OF OUR NATION. Instead, every single time an incident occurs whether it be here or abroad, the first thing he tells us is to "Not Jump To Conclusions". Let us just look at the incidents which have occurred under his LEADERSHIP?????? Of course we had the Fort Hood murders in 2009 where 14 were killed and over 30 injured when Major Nadal Malik Hasan went on a shooting spree yelling ALLAHU AKBAR which sounded a bit like a Muslim saying to me. AH, but our brilliant President and his equally clueless administration tried to convince us all that this was NOT TERRORISM but rather WORKPLACE VIOLENCE. Then later on we had an incident where another radicalized Muslim beheaded one woman and attempted to behead another in Moore, Oklahoma and the Obama administration still was hesitant to classify this as a terrorist attack.

 

Then just within the past week in Chattanooga, Tennessee two military recruiting stations were attacked by another Muslim and FIVE AMERICANS, 4 Marines and 1 Sailor, were killed by the same Muslim Terrorist. I could go on to name any number of other attacks on American Soil where Americans lost their lives at the hands of Radical Muslim Terrorists but all the while, the President of the United States and his band of merry men try to downplay the fact that Muslim Terrorists were at the bottom of the attacks. They keep trying to minimize these attacks by calling the "Lone Wolf" attacks. Now just stop and think back to September 11, 2001 when the four commercial aircraft were hijacked by Muslim Terrorists and crashed into the World Trade Center Towers and the Pentagon and the fourth crashed into a Pennsylvania field killing all aboard. I am not positive but I believe that 12 Muslim Terrorists were killed in this terrorist plot according to many sources but took the lives of over 3,000 Americans. So that would mean an average of 3 hijackers per aircraft were killed. BUT the Bush Administration didn't take long before they called it a Terrorist Attack. Of course, I can remember back a day or so later when President George W. Bush was telling us all that Islam was a "Religion of Peace"........ yeah, right.

 

I heard a couple of days back that some group had conducted a poll of Muslims living in America and came up with the figure that of those Muslims polled, 51% favored SHARIA LAW and that somewhere near 90% believed that they SHOULD NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES. And keep in mind that those who desire to live under Sharia Law also support "Honor Killings" and "Stoning" for a number of indiscretions. SO, with this poll in mind, spare me the bull crap about how MOST MUSLIMS ARE MODERATE.

 

Now, let's get back to the shootings at the Military Recruiters and at the other Military installations. The Military Recruiting Offices are "GUN FREE ZONES". Oh, they have some dummies in the windows but no loaded firearms are allowed. It seems as if I read somewhere that this policy was instituted during the BILL CLINTON PRESIDENCY. Of course after these latest shootings in Chattanooga there has been a hue and cry for the people at these installations to be ARMED. When I see stuff like no firearms allowed at Military Installations I always have to think back to the old movie; "DR. STRANGELOVE". There was a scene in a secretive location called "The War Room" where there were global maps displayed which showed the location of all of our strategic aircraft. An Army General and a Russian Representative began to argue and got into a tussle and the American President, played by Peter Sellers shouted..... "Gentlemen, there will be NO FIGHTING IN THE WAR ROOM." I found that really funny.... but our troops being unarmed on military bases I DO NOT FIND HUMOROUS IN THE LEAST. AND, it appears that The White House was one of the LAST U.S. Government entities to finally fly their flags at half-staff in honor of those killed in the latest terrorist attack.

 

It would seem that things could not get any more bizarre than those things I have mentioned above BUT then in the past week we have all been able to see two different medical doctors who are connected with Planned Parenthood on undercover video tapes speaking about removing body parts from aborted babies and selling them. Both of these doctors appear to be haggling over the price of these parts and are speaking very casually about this subject with one of them speaking of seeking a "Less Crunchy" method of removal. One of them also spoke of turning the baby's body around inside the womb so that many vital parts could be removed prior to the death of the "fetus". AND do not forget, that Planned Parenthood could not operate without FEDERAL FUNDS.... and for those of you in the People's Republic of San Francisco, that equals OUR TAX DOLLARS.

 

A couple of days back I was reading a series of one of my favorite comics.... "Dilbert"..... and read one thought that I found actually quite appropriate for the "Uninformed American Voter". Dilbert's pet "Dogbert" was figuring out a way to to conquer the world. He made the statement that, "IT SHOULDN'T BE TOO HARD, GIVEN THE FACT THAT I'VE PROBABLY SNEEZED MORE BRAIN CELLS THAN THE AVERAGE HUMAN USES ON ELECTION DAY". Unfortunately over the past six years FOR SURE, the average American voter has apparently not given a serious thought as to what they were about to do to our country. They damn sure better get it right in 2016 or we are really screwed. 

 

QUOTES:

 

"The United states seems at this moment about to break the record for the worst political blunder of all time, with its Obama administration deal that will make a nuclear Iran virtually inevitable."........... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Some commentators have attributed Barack Obama's many foreign policy disasters to incompetence. But he has been politically savvy enough to repeatedly outmaneuver this opponents in America. For example, the Constitution makes it necessary for the President to get a two-thirds majority in the Senate to make any treaty valid. Yet he has Maneuvered the Republican-controlled Congress into a position where they will need a two-thirds majority in both Houses to prevent his unilaterally negotiated agreement from going into effect -- just by not calling it a treaty....... If he is that savvy at home, why is he so apparently incompetent abroad? Answering that may indeed require us to think the unthinkable, that we have elected a man for whom America's best interests are not his top priority."..... THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

 

MORE STUFF:

 

A few days back I watched a couple of really good programs covering the NASA program of sending a satellite past the PLANET PLUTO. Yes, that's right, I still consider PLUTO a PLANET just as I was taught over 70 years ago. Anyway, the programs were really well done and the photos of PLUTO were exceptional. But what made it so very interesting to me was the maneuvering of the satellite by NASA via signals from Earth. I had not stopped to realize for a long time just how far away that Pluto is from Earth but realized from watching these programs that Pluto is 2.96 BILLION MILES in July, 2015. Its maximum distance due to the pronounced elliptical orbit of Pluto is 4.68 BILLION MILES from our planet. So, you can see how much work it took the people at NASA to time this photo expedition to Pluto. The people who were present at NASA when the first photos were taken..... if I heard it correctly were the grandchildren of the Astronomer who discovered Pluto in 1930. This voyage took over NINE YEARS to complete this trip to Pluto. These programs further stated that the spacecraft use was the fastest traveling spacecraft in the history of NASA. So for something which did not hold all that much interest to me nine years ago has once again made me a fan of NASA and our space program which has headed South during the Obama administration....... But why should that surprise any of us.

 

--------------------------

 

Several people sent me an e-mail which contained a film about the old Western Movies and had some of the really good old Western actors making comments regarding their careers and some of the really great Western Movie stars. It had several short gunfight scenes which got me to thinking about how much I appreciated the old Western movies and the actors which were not only the stars but also many of the character actors who really stole a bunch of the movies. I tried to think back about some of my favorite Westerns of all times and in particular the gunfights which I considered to be outstanding. So here is my primary list of great gunfights in Western Movies. I know that I am leaving some out and if you have one or more you would like to add, feel free to do so. I am not listing these in any particular order but just some that really stood out at the time ..... AND STILL DO:

 

Alan Ladd v. Jack Wilson (Jack Palance); Rufe Ryker (Emile Meyer) ; Morgan Ryker (John Dierkes) ---- SHANE

 

Robert Duvall & Kevin Costner v. Big Rancher and Sheriff ----- OPEN RANGE

 

John Wayne v. Sweeny (Richard Boone); Pulford (Hugh O'Brien); Cobb (Bill McKinney) ------ THE SHOOTIST

 

Robert Duvall & Thomas Haden Church v. Big Ears Bywater (Chris Mulkey) and gang ---------------- BROKEN TRAIL

 

Clint Eastwood v. Comanchero Leader (John Quade); Capt. Redlegs Terrill (Bill McKinney) and Everybody Else ---------------- THE OUTLAW JOSE WALES

 

William Holden, Ben Johnson, Ernest Borgnine, Warren Oates v. Entire population of Mexican Village ------ THE WILD BUNCH

 

Just as soon as I send this out a dozen more will come to mind but these are the one's that jump into my head for starters.
Too bad they have stopped making Westerns and are depending on special effects and bad language and loud noises to keep the attention of the audience. Sad

 

------------------------------------

 

Please contact your U.S. Representatives and tell them to CUT THE FUNDING TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD along with any funding to countries who are our potential enemies in the immediate future.

July 16th, 2015   REMOVAL  /  DEAL

 

Wednesday - July 15, 2015

 

Greetings from The Jingoistic Politically Incorrect Second Amendment Supporting Fossil Fuel Burning SUV Drivers Of West Texas.

 

REMOVAL:

 

Right after the murders of nine people in the Charleston, SC church by Dylann Roof, a photo of Roof was shown on practically every news show on television. The photo showed Roof holding a Confederate Battle Flag. Almost immediately South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley began the movement to remove the Confederate Flag from all State Properties. As I said last week, I am sure that many black people in this country equate any Confederate symbol as a sign of racism but that is simply not true. BUT, Governor Nikki Haley, in my estimation, was not as interested in the feelings of black people as she was about creating a photo op for herself. It was damn near impossible to turn on a news program without seeing Haley raving about how this symbol of racism had to be removed. So immediately the State Government in South Carolina began the process of passing legislation which would mandate the removal of any Confederate Flag from State property.

 

AND, of course after the legislation was walked through the South Carolina House and Senate, Governor Nikki Haley had a huge press gathering to show her signing the legislation. Of course she could not be satisfied with pushing this legislation through to appease minority groups, she further had to use NINE pens to sign the legislation and she presented each of the nine families who lost someone in the church murders with one of those pens.

I would like a show of hands from everyone who believes that this move was about the families of the murder victims rather than a huge photo op for South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley.

 

Last week I along with many others pointed out that the flag in the photo shown with Dylann Roof was actually the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia. BUT I would also like to point out that Roof, in addition to holding the Confederate Battle Flag was wearing a GOLD'S GYM T-shirt.

 

SO, at this point, I would like to request from Governor Nikki Haley and all of the people who were offended by the Confederate Battle Flag to also DEMAND the immediate CLOSING OF NOT ONLY EVERY SINGLE GOLD'S GYM IN SOUTH CAROLINA...... BUT EVERY GOLD'S GYM IN THE UNITED STATES. After all, I am sure that the GOLD'S GYM T-shirt was every bit as much to blame as the small Confederate Battle Flag.

 

Also, let us check into the color of Roof's house and demand that this color be immediately painted over as this might also have been a contributing factor.

 

And of course all of the Gun Control slugs immediately began to blame the murders on the lack of Gun Control Laws. But as I understand, the Church where the murders occurred was a GUN FREE ZONE. As a matter of fact, COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL in Colorado; SANDY HOOK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in Newtown, Connecticut; THEATRE SHOOTING IN AURORA, Colorado; FED EX FACILITY in Kennesaw, GA; CLACKMAS TOWN CENTER MALL in Portland, OR, just to name a few. In fact the CRIME PREVENTION RESEARCH CENTER (CPRC) released a report that 92% of public mass shootings since January, 2009 occurred in GUN FREE ZONES.

SO, the latest entity to declare their premises as GUN FREE ZONES is the WHATABURGER chain.

What I am saying is that declaring a particular location as a GUN FREE ZONE makes about as much sense as blaming the Confederate Flag for the murders in Charleston, SC. Once again, the politicians and special interest groups have used a real tragedy to make political points. I do not live in South Carolina and I don't know what the residents there think of their Governor but if I lived there I would do everything in my power to get rid of her.

 

Now, get a load of this little item. The City Council of MEMPHIS, TN has voted UNANIMOUSLY to EXHUME the bodies of Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest AND his wife from their graves at a Memphis Cemetery which I assume must be on City Property. Also to be removed is a huge statue of General Forrest and the neither brain surgeons on the Memphis City Council nor the Mayor A.C. Wharton seem to know what to do with that.

 

OK. So if we are going to carry this out and appease all of the Liberals/Socialists/Marxists/Democrats and special interest groups, then let us tear down the Washington Monument, destroy the Jefferson Memorial, and let us remove all mention of and pictures of and photographs of every single historical figure from our public view and our history books. AND, since Texas seceded from the Union let us remove the mention of and statues of Sam Houston and every other Texas historical hero. And we can change the advertisement to "WELCOME TO FIVE FLAGS OVER TEXAS".

 

These present elected scum at every level have it in their minds to completely disavow the American Civil War and if they can remove that then they can convince an ever growing STUPID public that none of this ever happened.

 

I submit that instead of removing the Confederate Flags and the statues of past Confederate Generals we would be better served in REMOVING LIBERALS FROM ELECTED POSITIONS. There is a removal I could go for. AH, be we didn't have the Confederate Flag or George Bush to blame for the brutal murder of Kate Steinle so one of the brilliant City Council Supervisors told a FOX News representative that it was due to lack of GUN CONTROL that this murder happened. This idiot seems to believe that the murderer's ability to obtain a handgun completely overshadowed the fact that the murderer WAS IN THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY AND WAS FURTHER PROTECTED BY HER CITY'S SANCTUARY POLICY REGARDING ILLEGAL ALIENS.

 

Beam me up Mr. Scott these clowns need to be vaporized.

 

DEAL:

 

According to several sources, along with Iran and the United States, several other countries have supported the IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL. I watched our Chief Community Organizer speak about how much safer this Nuclear Deal with Iran made the Middle East. On the same news program I also saw the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei speaking before the Iranian lawmakers who in unison were shouting "DEATH TO AMERICA....DEATH TO ISRAEL", and for some strange reason I formed the opinion that these people were not to be trusted.

 

For some reason, I did not equate DEATH TO ISRAEL as a very strong sign of peaceful intentions of Iran. Of course Iran has the largest Shiite Muslim population of any of the Middle Eastern countries, but I don't suppose we should try to read between the lines and suspect that all Muslim sects are not completely on the same page.

One of the main things on which I base my opinion is the fact that the majority of the Republicans and a number of Democrats/Progressives/Socialists/Marxists also have problems with this Nuclear Deal, which I am sure was masterfully crafted by John Kerry and his band of merry men. I do not know the names of the U.S. Negotiating Team but unless I miss my guess, Obama would not allow anyone on the team whom he could not control nor anyone who had any real experience in dealing with this other criminal regime (Iran).

 

Of course, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said all along that any nuclear deal with Iran that did not have very strict guidelines and sanctions would be destructive to the Middle East in general and Israel in particular.

 

At this point in my life, I have a hard time..... no, make that an impossibility to trust Barack Hussein Obama OR anyone closely connected with this criminal administration.

 

I am sure that as the days pass, we shall become more aware just how bad this deal with Iran is. Right off the bat, Vladimir Putin gave it his blessing as did China. Now if this doesn't give you a pretty strong clue as to just how dangerous this agreement with Iran is for our country and the rest of the Middle East then you have not been paying attention to the direction Obama and his Marxist cohorts have been carrying us since 2009.

 

I am surely not a huge fan of Saudi Arabia but even the Saudis are against this bad deal which I feel we have made with the leading sponsor of terrorism on the planet.

 

AND, if Hillary Clinton is elected in 2016, our country's status as a Super Power is done.

 

REMEMBER......THE IRANIAN LAWMAKERS CHANT.........."DEATH TO AMERICA...DEATH TO ISRAEL".

"Now there are rumblings of demands that statues of Robert E.

"Hate Crime laws are on some people's agenda. But what will such laws actually accomplish? A murderer deserves the death penalty, whether he killed someone of a different race or killed his own twin brother. All that hate crime laws can do is to provide the murderer's lawyer with another ground on which to appeal the conviction or the sentence."....... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

OK, how about a show of hands from everyone who believe that the escape of Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman from the maximum security prison in Mexico DID NOT HAVE ASSISTANCE FROM THE MEXICAN GOVERNMENT AND OFFICIALS OF THE ALTIPLANO PRISON. Does anyone other than me find it a bit hard to believe that pure ass blind luck was involved in the MILE LONG TUNNEL ending up in a blind spot inside this Mexican Prison? Also keep in mind that this tunnel was longer than any tunnel passage ever found on the U.S. - Mexico Border. Experts say that this tunnel project would have taken at least 18 months to complete. In addition, this tunnel had lights, air venting and a customized motorcycle rigged up on a rail line.

 

I'm sorry folks, but an operation of this magnitude COULD NOT BE SUCCESSFUL WITHOUT CORRUPTION AT THE HIGHEST LEVELS IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT of Mexico.

-------------------------

Another death this week of a professional football great, Kenny Stabler, the former Alabama quarterback who also played in the NFL for the Oakland Raiders, the Houston Oilers and the New Orleans Saints. Stabler had some really great years with Oakland and Houston in particular. He was the winning quarterback in some of the really great NFL games I have seen.

---------------------------

Earlier this week I received my bi-monthly copy of the Safari Times. I receive this publication along with their magazine which comes also bi-monthly. I am a Life Member of this organization and I joined back about 20 years ago. My wife and I used to attend their annual conventions in Reno, Nevada every year and got to see some really outstanding equipment and displays. The absolute best Taxidermy Exhibits I have ever seen and I have been to Cabela's and The Bass Pro Shop which also have excellent exhibits.

Anyway, what made this particular publication interesting was an article telling of a new World Record Alligator which had been taken in Alabama. I had always equated alligators with Florida and Louisiana but we also had quite a few in Texas. This new World Record Gator was 15'9".... that is FIFTEEN FEET AND NINE INCHES in length weighing in at a trim 1,011.5 pounds. That is one huge gator.

------------------------

Over the past couple of weeks it seems as if DONALD TRUMP'S name has had more exposure than any of the candidates, Republican or Democrat. Of course most of this exposure was due to Trump's statements about what he would do about the Mexican Border. BUT, let us not forget that "The Donald" in the past has supported Barack Obama as well as a "Path To Citizenship" for Illegal Aliens already in our country. Earlier today I listened to an audio of "The Donald" speaking about a meeting that he was to have with Ted Cruz and of course "The Donald" made it sound as if he could care less but that it was all the idea of Ted Cruz.

 

I realize that "The Donald" has made some really good decisions in his own personal business dealings BUT he has also made a few bad ones as well. But in reality, I do not believe that "The Donald" is really all that serious about running for President and I already know that he is very wealthy so I get a bit weary of him spouting off about his wealth at every occasion. In short.... we have endured over six years of rule by the most arrogant human being I have every seen. I personally am not ready to place maybe the second most arrogant human being ( a close call between Donald Trump and John Kerry) I have ever seen in The White House.

 

BUT, perhaps we had all better wait and see what Karl Rove tells us AND shows us on his little chalk board he uses at every opportunity. I ain't no damn school kid and I don't need Karl Rove to show me on a chalk board the finer points of his presentation. He is an "Inside the Beltway, Establishment Republican Butt Boy for the Establishment Republicans in Washington" and is a pure VARMINT.

---------------------------------

I guess if I wanted to be a bit more like Donald Trump, I could start signing off as "The Jimmy". But if I ever do, please give me a swift kick, as Foghorn Leghorn would say, "Where My Tail Feathers Are The Thinnest".

July 8th, 2015   EU  /  SANCTUARY

 

 

 

Wednesday - July 8, 2015

 

For your perusal.   Imagine yourself living in Greece....one of the more ancient civilizations on earth....home of many of our great philosophers.......then imagine this great civilization over the centuries subscribing to a Socialist government.......visualize this society slowly becoming more dependent upon their government to be involved in every aspect of their lives.......then one day they wake up to realize that they have been inserted right in the middle of....... THE  EURO ZONE.

 

Now, if you are too young to remember Rod Serling's introduction into his famous series The TWILIGHT  ZONE, you probably will not appreciate the previous paragraph.

EU:

 

So, just what exactly is THE EURO ZONE?   The EURO ZONE is a monetary union comprised of 19 of the 28 European Union member states (countries) which have adopted the Euro as their common currency and sole legal tender.  The other 9 members of the European Union continue to use their own national currencies.

 

And, as indicated, Greece is not only a member of the European Union but is also a member of the EURO ZONE.  Of course if you look at a map of the European Union you might notice that Switzerland stands out rather starkly as not being a member of either.  What do the Swiss know that seems to have escaped the keen observation of these other countries?

I am certainly not an expert on the European Union or the Euro Zone but when the European Union was first formed we were told that European countries were making an attempt at forming a Union of Countries similar to our Union of States.  I actually heard some so called experts say that this was going to go off without a hitch.  However when I first took notice of the formation of the European Union one thought seemed to creep to the head of my questions.

The 50 States which make up our United States pretty well spoke and still speak one common language, although this is beginning to change for sure.  The languages of the European Union member countries are significantly different.  And of course there are many differences in the cultures of the different European Union member countries.  My personal opinion was that this was not going to work well but I wished them good luck.

Now with Greece being way beyond broke, and owing a whopping 242.8 BILLION Euros ($271 Billion) have voted against another bail out (and I am not sure I understand these bailouts we keep hearing about  since you still owe some other entity the same amount PLUS  INTEREST).
Of course, our very own country would probably jump for joy if $271 Billion was all that we owed.

 

The National Debt of our country is $18,296,150,800,000+ dollars.  Now for those of you residing in The People's Republic of San Francisco that would be EIGHTEEN  TRILLION, TWO HUNDRED NINETY SIX BILLION, ONE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION,  EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND  DOLLARS.  Makes Greece's debt seem pretty insignificant.  Of course, with Greece being a pure Socialist Country, their likelihood of  pulling themselves out are fairly remote.

I have been hearing over the past couple of days that Spain and Portugal are also in some serious financial problems.  So apparently  Greece is not the only country experiencing financial and other woes during these times.

But we should pay close attention since the Socialist lifestyle in Europe has cut the full time work week down to something like 30 hours per week and  paid vacation time is much more than here...... at least for now.

But if you will look at what Barack Hussein Obama has done and is trying to do, our country is headed in the same direction as Europe.

 

Americans better pay attention  or we will be going down the same road.

 

SANCTUARY:

 

SANCTUARY - a place of refuge or protection

 

I was able to locate a list  which showed 165 (one hundred sixty five) United States cities which consider themselves SANCTUARY  CITIES which are cities offering some degree of Sanctuary to ILLEGAL  ALIENS.

 

You probably won't be surprised to learn that California leads the league in the number of Sanctuary Cities with THIRTY THREE known but Texas is second with THIRTEEN and New York comes in for the bronze medal with ELEVEN.  New Jersey and Colorado made the playoffs with NINE each.  There are SEVENTEEN other cities that are on a watch list.  Evidently they are considering becoming a Sanctuary City.

Now, any way you slice it,  these cities, by prohibiting their law enforcement agencies from doing any form of investigation which would reveal the citizenship status of a person being questioned appear to be intentionally violating Federal Immigration Laws.

 

Of course,  a couple of days back we learned that a very pretty lady in San Francisco was MURDERED by an Illegal Alien in San Francisco, a Sanctuary City.  Of course it was learned upon the arrest of the murderer that not only was he an ILLEGAL  ALIEN, but further he had SEVEN  FELONY  CONVICTIONS and had been DEPORTED BACK TO MEXICO  FIVE  TIMES  IN  THE  PAST.

 

Now I don't wish to seem a bit one way on this matter BUT  allowing this vermin to remain FREE and walking our streets is in itself CRIMINAL in my estimation.  According to all the reports, this mutt was in custody in SAN  FRANCISCO and a request had been made by the Federal Immigration Officials to hold this person for the Immigration Customs Enforcement BUT evidently since SAN FRANCISCO is a SANCTUARY  CITY, the murderer was released and in pretty short order killed this lady who was walking on a San Francisco pier with her father.

 

Of course the Sheriff's Department and the City of San Francisco and I am sure the Idiot Governor of California will all blame each other for being culpable in this incident.  BUT, any government at any level that supports this SANCTUARY CITY crap should be voted out or recalled or impeached.... which ever is faster.

 

Immigration into a country is a good thing if it is done LEGALLY.  In my 45 years of law enforcement in Texas and New Mexico, I have had literally thousands of opportunities to speak with people entering our country from another country;  Mexico/Canada/Asia.  Most of them were doing it the right way and I completely supported their attempts.  I have talked with a large number of people attempting to enter into our country illegally.  I certainly understood why most of them were attempting to find work to help their families but there were also quite a few who were involved in criminal activities.  But please spare me the crap about these other countries SENDING US  THEIR  BEST  AND BRIGHTEST.

 

First of all, those countries are NOT  SENDING us anything.  Most of those people entering our country illegally are doing it because they want to. AND unfortunately quite a few are involves in criminal acts.

BUT, any government agency charged with PROTECTING  OUR  BORDERS or PROTECTING US FROM ENEMIES  FOREIGN  AND DOMESTIC are falling flat on their asses.  Our Department of Justice including the Department of Homeland Security is failing us.  The State Government of California is more than likely the worst at the state level but they are not by themselves by any means.

 

But if you are not going to help us............. get the HELL out of the way!  And one must wonder which flag the Liberals/Socialists/Democrats/Marxists will try to blame for that brutal murder in San Francisco?

QUOTES:

 

"Back in the 19th century Frederick Douglass saw the dangers from well-meaning whites.  He said: 'Everybody has asked the question, what shall we do with the Negro?  I have had but one answer from the beginning.  Do nothing with us!  Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us.' " ... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"Today the moral horror of slavery is so widely condemned that it is hard to realize that there were thousands of years when slavery was practiced around the world by people of virtually every race.  Even the leading moral and religious thinkers in different societies accepted slavery as just a fact of life.".. THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"To many on the left, the 1960s were the glory days of their movements, and for some the days of their youth as well.  They have a heavy emotional investment and ego investment in the ideas, aspirations and policies of the 1960s.  It might never occur to many of them to check their beliefs against some hard facts about what actually happened after their ideas and policies were put into effect.  It certainly would not be pleasant to admit, even to yourself, that after promising progress toward social justice, what you actually delivered was a regression toward barbarism.".............. THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"The majority invokes our Constitution in the name of a liberty that the framers would not have recognized, to the detriment of the liberty they sought to protect."........   SUPREME COURT  JUSTICE  CLARENCE  THOMAS

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.   There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....   Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.".....

MORE STUFF:

 

I watched a video several times in which Obama was speaking before a large military audience.  One of his momentous statements was the "You cannot defeat idealism with guns you have defeat it with better ideas."  OK, let's see.  I just wonder in the 1940s if President Roosevelt or President Truman or perhaps Prime Minister Winston Churchill could have convinced Adolph Hitler that they had a "Better Idea" than the Nazi Party?  Probably not.... BUT MILITARY  ACTION DID.

 

Or how did coming up with a "Better Idea" work for Genghis Khan against the Muslims?  It didn't..... BUT TOTAL DESTRUCTION BY MILITARY FORCE  DID.

 

Basically it goes to show that Barack Hussein Obama doesn't know his backside from a toy truck when it comes to ANYTHING having to do with foreign policy or negotiating with a hostile country.

Oh, but wait a minute..... perhaps he can draw another..... RED  LINE.   That has really worked well hasn't it?  Obama's "Red Lines" seem to be about as effective as the MAGINOT  LINE which was  constructed in the 1930s to insure the safety of France from Germany.  Really worked well, didn't it?  I have this feeling that we are getting ready to hand over a nuclear bomb to Iran and that spells trouble for everyone in the Middle East AND  US.

 

OK, here is a way to overcome Muslim Controlled Middle Eastern IDEALISM with a BETTER  IDEA.   "IF  YOU CLOWNS DON'T DO AS WE WISH, WE WILL BOMB YOU BACK INTO THE MESOZOIC ERA."  That should be an idea that even the most ignorant Muslim leader could comprehend.

-------------------------------------------

I have about had the lick with the news reporters whining about being "Roped Off Like Cattle" by the Hillary Clinton political mob.  Serves their asses right.  They have kissed this old heifer's backside for so long she now feels like she owns them.   Well so do I.  You can't be herded like cattle unless you let yourself be herded like cattle.  I am not sure that comparing reporters to cattle is not an insult to our bovine friends.  Perhaps "Herded Like Swine" would be a better description.

 

Anyway, I have way more use for cattle than I do for reporters.

-------------------------------

HEY!  I think I have the solution to the problems of Greece.  I noticed that in a short while, public school district across America will be substituting GREEK  YOGURT for meat on school lunches. Boy oh boy!  Does that make me hungry or what.  A good cup of YOGURT over a double meat hamburger?

I seem to detect Michelle Obama's influence on this menu change.

-----------------------------------

Well as much as I would like to follow Michelle Obama's lead on healthy meals, on July 4th for lunch I had not ONE but TWO  CHILI CHEESE DOGS WITH SWEET RELISH AND ABOUT A HALF POUND OF POTATO CHIPS FOR LUNCH TOPPED OFF WITH A HUGE SLICE OF HOME MADE BUTTERMILK  CAKE....... THEN  FOR SUPPER  I HAD THE EXACT SAME MENU.  I am sure I will be arrested by the food police when they get wind of that.

BUT the following day I made up for it by eating a giant CHILI  CHEESE  BURGER  WITH  CHIPS  and MORE  BUTTERMILK  CAKE.

---------------------------------

There were some really good programs on regarding the American War of Independence and of course I can't ever get enough of that.  But I also drug out my books on my favorite War of Independence General.  And that would be General Daniel Morgan.  If you are not familiar with General Daniel Morgan,  look him up on the Internet and have a glimpse of one of General George Washington's favorite Commanders.   He was a true American Hero.    We need a few more like him today.

July 1st, 2015   SUPREMES

 

Wednesday - July 1, 2015

 

Hello once again from the Primary Headquarters Of Jingoistic Right Wing Conspiratorial Texans Who Never Desired To Own A Confederate Flag ....... Until Now.

 

SUPREMES:

 

I was never a huge fan of DIANA ROSS AND THE SUPREMES which of course were a group of singers who were popular.... with some.... during the so called MOTOWN days. I was also not a huge fan of THE MOTOWN SOUND either. BUT I believe that I would put more trust in Diana Ross and her squalling group than I can put into the latest version of THE SUPREMES. And, of course, that would be the majority of the SUPREME COURT JUSTICES who have decided that the writers and the signers of the Constitution of the United States didn't know what they were saying.

 

I call your attention to the TENTH AMENDMENT to the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES:

 

"THE POWERS NOT DELEGATED TO THE UNITED STATES BY THE CONSTITUTION, NOR PROHIBITED BY IT TO THE STATES, ARE RESERVED TO THE STATES RESPECTIVELY, OR TO THE PEOPLE."

 

Apparently, our Present Supreme Court, with the exception possibly of three Justices, seem to have overlooked entirely the Tenth Amendment of our Constitution. This past week, ONLY Justices Antonin Scalia (Reagan); Clarence Thomas (G.H.W. Bush); and Samuel Alito (G.W. Bush) appear to have a real grasp of The Constitution of the United States. Chief Justice John Roberts (G.W.Bush) will on occasion abide by his sworn duties BUT on other occasions seems to have sold out to the far left Socialists.

 

Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg (Clinton); Sonia Sotomayor (Obama); Elena Kagan (Obama);  and Stephen Breyer (Clinton) all have their heads permanently up their backsides on practically every issue.

Which brings us to the perennial SWING VOTE in a normal 5 to 4 decision. And that is Justice Anthony Kennedy (Reagan). Justice Kennedy will on rare occasions cast his vote and appear to actually have the Constitution and the best interests of the people of the United States in mind while in other instances he appears to be as far left as the three squacks (Ginsburg, Sotomayor and Kagan) and their faithful companion Breyer. And I want you to look back over the past 6 or so years and see just how many times the lives of all of us have been placed in the hands of ONE SUPREME COURT JUSTICE in a 5 to 4 vote on an issue. Most of the time, Anthony Kennedy is the single most powerful individual in the United States but on occasion Chief Justice John Roberts will cross over to the dark side.

 

This past week saw the Supreme Court decide that the challenge to The Affordable Healthcare Act (ObamaCare) while poorly written was nevertheless overturned since, in the words of Chief Justice Roberts ......... To read the law the way the challengers wanted -- limiting tax credits to people who live in states that set up their own health insurance marketplaces would lead to a "calamitous result that Congress could not  have intended."  REALLY?  For some reason I had always labored under the impression that the job of the Supreme Court was to decide on the CONSTITUTIONALITY of legislation. BUT it seems now as if Chief Justice Roberts along with the other left wing Socialists have decided that their job is also to read the minds of the Congressional Idiots and decide what they meant rather than what they said. BUT why should we expect Roberts to do ANYTHING to stand in the way of this ObamaCare Legislation when he voted with the Socialists the very first time the law came before the Supreme Court.

 

Then of course the following day in another 5 to 4 vote with Anthony Kennedy once again proving that he is the most powerful individual in the United States upheld the Same Sex Marriage laws and overturned all State Statutes which did not recognize Same Sex Marriage as a legal right.  Since this verdict was handed down, I have read the Constitution of the United States THREE TIMES.  Not once did I see the word MARRIAGE in The Constitution and from all I remember, the marriage license which damn near all Americans get prior to marriage is A STATE MARRIAGE LICENSE issued by the State in which the ceremony will take place.

 

If I remember correctly each state issues:

 

Driver's Licenses

Hunting Licenses

Business Licenses

Vehicle Licenses

Medical Licenses

Conceal Carry Licenses (Permits)

 

MARRIAGE LICENSES

When will The Supremes and the federal government decide to control all of these licenses?  Keep this thought in mind.  This is not about marrying people of the same sex...... IT IS ABOUT CONTROL.  It is about slowly but surely CONTROLLING  ALL OF OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS and in particular, Religious Freedom as guaranteed in the First Amendment.

Oh yeah, we have all been told over the past year or so that 70% of the people in America favor Same Sex Marriage.  But doesn't it strike you as a trifle unusual that the results of Same Sex Marriage when voted on by a number of states WAS DEFEATED. If memory serves me correctly, a number of years back even California voted against Same Sex Marriage.

But once again, why should any of us expect the truth from this present federal administration or from the news media as a whole. I do not wish to intrude on any personal relationships which people might have but in the words spoken by Fletcher in The Outlaw Josey Wales...... "Don't piss down my back and tell me it's rainin'." Because that is just exactly what this present federal government is doing.

 

It is pretty obvious that the far left Socialists have control of our federal government and the news media.  You can gather that just from seeing what a stink they rose over the Confederate Flag. Well folks, that is just the beginning. I can almost assure you all that while never letting up on the issue of slavery which ended officially in this country in 1865, they will try to wipe out all mention of the Confederate States of America along with anyone connected with the Confederacy and before it is all over, the American Civil War will not be mentioned in the History Books of our fading public education system. Before it is all over, these same people will make a serious move on anything or anyone connected with the Civil War.

 

At least they have not made a move on the American Flag............... YET.

If you are satisfied with the way the present day Supremes are doing their jobs then vote for Hillary. BUT if you have had enough of having our country being controlled by a single vote in the Supreme Court then let's get a real Conservative elected in 2016.

 

Keep these following RULES in mind and just see how many are already in place. These are SAUL ALINSKY'S Eight Levels Of Control In Order To Create A Social State.

 

1) Control healthcare and you control the people.................. (DONE)

2) Increase the Poverty level as high as possible. Poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live. (DONE)

3) Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty. (DONE)

4) Remove the ability of people to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a Police State. (THEY ARE TRYING)

5) Take control of every aspect of their lives; Food, Housing, and Income. (PROCEEDING WELL AND CLOSE TO ACCOMPLISHMENT)

6) Take control of what people read and listen to. Take control of what children learn in school. (PROCEEDING WELL PARTIALLY ACCOMPLISHED)

7) Remove the belief in God from the Government and Schools. (ALMOST DONE)

8) Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to tax the wealthy with the support of the poor. (CLOSE)

 

IT IS ALL ABOUT CONTROL!

MORE STUFF:

 

While I am not a huge fan of Marco Rubio (however I do like him better than Jeb Bush, Rand Paul, Chris Christie, Mike Huckabee, and Donald Trump), I have seen one statement made by Senator Rubio with which I am in total agreement:

"Our Allies NO LONGER TRUST US and Our Enemies NO LONGER FEAR US."  He is right on the money with that statement. BUT not only do our ALLIES NO LONGER TRUST our FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, a LARGE SEGMENT OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NO LONGER TRUST THE FEDERAL BUREAUCRATS WHO COMPRISE THE LION'S SHARE OF THE MEMBERS OF OUR ELECTED AND APPOINTED FEDERAL OFFICIALS.

 

I never thought I would see the day when I, personally, have absolutely zero trust in any branch of the federal government. I am sure there are some individual federal employees who are "worker bees" who feel the same way but just cannot voice their opinions for fear of losing their jobs.

-------------------------------------

My wife has several bird feeders in our back yard and we put out feed daily for a conglomeration of various species of birds. We have everything from Hummingbirds to Bullock's Orioles to Western Tanagers and numerous species of Finches.  For the past 6 weeks or more, two squirrels have been raiding the bird feeders. Now while I think the squirrels are fun to watch they tend to be a bit destructive to anything which they believe might hold food.

SO, I purchased a live trap and have baited it for several weeks and have caught lots of doves but no squirrels.  So I moved the trap to an area on our patio that I knew the squirrels visited and the doves did not. Yesterday I was greeted by a squirrel who was caught in my trap. After I had my lunch I put the trap containing the squirrel in the back seat of my Explorer and headed off about 5 miles to a wooded area to release the captured squirrel.  Of course all the way out to that wooded area that little squirrel was going nuts in my trap and when I stopped I took the trap under an oak tree and with a cane I carefully opened the end of the trap and the squirrel shot out of there rapidly.

Now here is where the fun started, he/she ran right up to the top of this oak tree BUT unfortunately a Mockingbird had a nest up there and was not pleased and immediately attacked the squirrel.  The squirrel shot down the tree and ran about 10 yards to another oak tree and ran to the top ONLY to meet a second Mockingbird who was as pissed as the first one and this one also attacked the squirrel.  Down the tree went the squirrel and ran to a third oak tree, all the while both Mockingbirds were buzzing him knocking him off his feet one time. The squirrel finally made it up to the top of the third tree which was empty and that little squirrel stood up on his/her hind legs and began to chatter rapidly. I was sure he/she was eating my ass out for exposing him/her to not one but two killer Mockingbirds.

 

The Mockingbird is the State Bird of Texas and they are plenty fun to watch. A couple of them will gang up on a cat or a dog or a squirrel as well as attack crows and other birds who happen to be flying in their territory. I really like Mockingbirds and they have provided me with lots of laughs over the years. They are absolutely fearless and will double team a cat with one of them acting about half injured and just as the cat is ready to charge, the other one will fly in at full speed and knock fur off the back of the cat.  I like to call it DEATH FROM ABOVE. And as a general rule, cats are too stupid to realize that they are being used by these great little birds.

 

Years ago, I would have probably shot the squirrels and have been done with the problem but I don't really care to kill animals that are fun to watch....... WITH THE EXCEPTION OF  GRACKLES and SNAKES. They are still on my death list.

June 24th, 2015  HATE  /  OVERREACTION

 

Wednesday - June 24, 2015

 

Hello once again from The Association For Vast Right Wing Fringe Jingoistic Xenophobic Conspiratorial Second Amendment Supporters Of West Texas.

 

HATE:

 

I am sure that most normal people in our country were upset by the recent murders of 9 people in a Charleston, South Carolina church.  And the people of the City of Charleston, South Carolina are to be commended on the manner in which they responded to this tragic incident.  I can't even imagine how the City of Baltimore and their incompetent administration would have reacted to a similar event.

 

BUT, before the complete facts were even known about the Charleston murders, Barack Hussein Obama along with Hillary Rodham Clinton were attempting to make political hay out of the incident.  And of course, the media played right along with these two hacks.  I was watching one program on FOX News when one of their "Contributors" asked the question which I am sure was really paramount in the minds of the people of Charleston and elsewhere across America, and that was:  "What were the ROOT CAUSES for this act"?  Once again the old ROOT CAUSE question reared its ugly head.

 

And close on the heels of the "ROOT  CAUSES" bunch we had those who were more interested in whether or not this would be classified as a "HATE CRIME".  And of course the "HATE CRIME" question gave the federal government and the Department of Justice their ticket to this show.  I cannot remember the exact year when the "HATE CRIME" designation became the rule rather than the exception but I noticed that in the State of New Mexico, every law enforcement agency was coerced into using the same reporting forms for criminal reports.  AND of course this is when the "HATE CRIME" designation came into being.  AND this "HATE CRIME" designation was required by the State of New Mexico but I am sure it was mandated by the U.S. Federal Government and had to be followed IF  NEW  MEXICO  WISHED  TO  CONTINUE  RECEIVING  FEDERAL  FUNDS of any kind. 

 

SO, in my view, even back then, it was not about whether or not HATE really was a driving factor in the crime but more related as to giving the federal government a door to open a federal investigation should they desire.  NOW, keep in mind, this is just my own personal opinion but it sure seemed strange to me that overnight, on a given date, every single law enforcement agency at every level in the State of New Mexico had to use a form allegedly mandated by the State but I strongly suspect that much of it was mandated by the federal government.

 

After speaking with law enforcement officials and prosecuting attorneys, I came away with the feeling that in the long run, if a particular crime was given the designation of a "HATE CRIME" that the degree of felony would be raised and more than likely the minimum penalty would be more severe.  It also occurred to me that in most cases, the actual proof of it being a "HATE CRIME" could be rather hard to prove.   And I never once saw a case where a Caucasian was killed by a member of a Racial Minority was even suspected of being a "HATE CRIME".

 

In my opinion, an individual who in cold blood MURDERS multiple people, whether or not it is designated as a "HATE CRIME" is fairly academic.  It is simply just another way for politicians to keep the public DIVIDED, whether it is by RACE; RELIGION; ETHNICITY;  or FINANCIAL  CAPABILITIES, keeping the American People more interested in their differences is beneficial to the Elected Officials at practically every level.

And keep in mind that the more bizarre the crime, the less chances of receiving and serving the MAXIMUM SENTENCE... including the death penalty.

 

I did see interviews with a number of people who lived in Charleston, S.C. and some of them lost family members in the church murders.  I could not even begin to explain the glaring differences in those people and the criminal rioters and incompetent elected officials of Baltimore, MD.  The PEOPLE of Charleston, S.C. are to be commended for setting an excellent example of how people should act, even under the most stressful of conditions.

 

OVERREACTION:

 

In addition to the immediate rush to politicize the events in Charleston by trying to convince the American people that additional gun control laws might have prevented the deaths in the Charleston church, the elected officials at practically every level have rushed to place the blame for these shootings on gun control, of course, but suddenly many have decided that the "Confederate Flag" should be removed from every government ground in the country.

 

First of all, we saw a photograph of the murderer holding what is actually the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia.  Most people believe this recognizable flag is the official Flag of the Confederate States of America.  BUT it is not.  The flag which is known as "The Stars and Bars" is the official flag of the Confederacy.

 

In an immediate rush to please special interest groups, many states are taking steps to remove the Confederate Flag and the Confederate Battle Flag from all  government property.  I can understand how many black Americans are offended by the display of any Confederate Flag.....BUT..... get real, it was not a flag which caused this guy to commit mass murder.

 

I heard this morning that Amazon and other on line locations have taken ALL  CONFEDERATE  MERCHANDISE  OFF  THE  MARKET.  I heard that one flag company which for years had manufactured all kinds of flags, the Confederate Battle Flag among them, had ceased the manufacture of those flags and persons who had already paid for one of those flags would have their money returned.

 

There are also some people who are calling for re-naming public schools who are named for anyone connected with the South during the American Civil War.  And of course if a school athletic team happens to be called "The Rebels", they are also in the sights of the Political Correctness Police

 

Then, I hear that any statues of people who were part of the Confederate States of America are under the gun for removal.  Even at the University of Texas and I believe in the Senate Building there is a statue of Jefferson Davis and there are movements afoot to remove them.  One of these movements is being led by Harry Reid which makes me want to oppose that.  Perhaps Harry Reid and others might go back a bit in history and see what Jefferson Davis did prior to the secession of the Southern States.   Perhaps these boobs should go back and find out what Robert E. Lee did prior to the secession of the Southern States.

 

But the point is, if we remove all vestiges of the Confederate Flag and we remove all statues of any person connected with the Confederacy, will this bring back those people murdered in the Charleston church?   Of will it in any way insure that at some point in the future some other nut won't  do the same thing.  Then which inanimate object will the Liberals/Progressives/Marxists/Democrats blame?

 

Also, this past week end I saw numerous programs on the Ku Klux Klan on television.  Was this done

 

It is almost as if some people believe that if we remove anything which reminds us of the Confederacy that racism and racial prejudice will suddenly come to an end.  Then the next move will be to remove any mention of the American Civil War from school books and any programs relating to same from movies and television.  The history of our country is obviously not all good deeds.  It is loaded with some really bad behavior by people of all races.  BUT it is our history and should not be kept from future generations.  It appears to me that the objective of this movement is to re-write history.  If they succeed in doing this, then everything our country stands for is gone.

 

AND, finally, isn't it odd how many multiple murders take place in GUN-FREE-ZONES?

 

BEWARE!  THE WORD  POLICE have a firm hold and the next step is THE THOUGHT  POLICE.  Our First Amendment Rights are rapidly being swept away.

QUOTES:

 

"There are no sure things in politics, but Hillary Clinton is the closest thing to a sure thing to become the Democrats' candidate for president in 2016..... This is one of the painful but inescapable signs of our time.  There is nothing in her history that would qualify her for the presidency, and much that should disqualify her.  What is even more painful is that none of that matters politically.  Many people simply want a woman to be president, and Hillary is the best known woman in politics, though by no means the best qualified."................... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"The truly historic catastrophe of American foreign policy --not only failing to stop Iran from going nuclear, but making it more difficult for Israel to stop them -- was also something that happened on Hillary Clinton's watch as Secretary of State."............. THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"A President of the United States -- any president-- has the lives of more than 300 million people in his or her hands, and the future of Western civilization.  If the debacles and disasters of the Obama administration have still not demonstrated the irresponsibility of choosing a president on the basis of demographic characteristics, it is hard to imagine what could."...........

MORE STUFF:

 

This week I have seen several programs and read several articles which also contained pictures if the FORMER NAACP leader from Spokane, Rachel Dolezal.  I saw her in several different hair styles which were all ugly, and it finally dawned upon me just exactly who she reminded me of and it was Elsa Lanchester as The Bride of Frankenstein.

----------------------------------

WOW!   Almost every day, President Barack Hussein Obama makes a statement which convinces me that he thinks the rest of us are complete fools.  His latest brilliant observation:  "RACISM  IS  NOT  CURED".  Boy, nothing escapes the keen observation of the mob controlled Chicago Community Organizer.  Of course, the fact that he and his jug butted wife and some of his far left Marxist associates are the primary cause for racial distrust on all fronts being more prevalent  now than it was six years ago....Hey! Wait a minute.  Isn't that along about the time that this arrogant ass was elected?  Say, you don't suppose this could be a clue, do you?

--------------------------------------

This week we learned of the death of Heisman Trophy winning Running Back from Texas A & M, John David Crow.  John David Crow won the Heisman Trophy in 1957. He played under Paul "Bear" Bryant.  Now if I have to explain to anyone who Paul "Bear" Bryant was then all is surely lost.  Of course John David Crow was a bruising running back but back in those years he was a two way player and most said that he was a better defensive back than an offensive ball carrier.  I know he was one tough cookie and probably looked tough on the day he died.  Of course he went on to play in the NFL and converted to tight end with the St. Louis Cardinals.  After his pro career he coached with Bear Bryant at Alabama and was the head coach at Northeast Louisiana University, now known as Louisiana Monroe.  Later, he returned to College Station, Texas where he worked at various positions in the athletic department at Texas A & M until his retirement in 2001.

 

I was fortunate enough to have been able to see John David Crow play in person and on television.  He was part of the Texas A & M team which defeated the University of Texas in Austin in 1956.   This was the FIRST time that had happened.  John David Crow was a class act.  He was 79 years old.

--------------------------------------------

Is it just me or do any of you find it a bit puzzling that almost immediately, the shooting at the Charleston church was promptly being referred to as TERRORISM, particularly by the federal hacks and the media?

 

Now, think back several years to the mass murders in a true Terrorist Attack at Ft. Hood.  The shooter was Major Nadal Malik Hasan and almost before the smoke cleared the Obama administration was classifying this event as WORKPLACE  VIOLENCE.

 

Apparently, consistency is not a high priority item on the Obama Administration's list.

One last item.  Bill O'Reilly has come up with a brilliant idea that ALL GUN CRIMES should be FEDERAL  VIOLATIONS and this would be the only way to curb gun violence. You know for someone who is as well educated and as intelligent as Bill O'Reilly, doesn't it seem a bit odd to come up with such a complete idiotic idea?  I think he and Geraldo must have been dining from the same dish.

June 17th, 2015  TRANS  /  HACKED

 

Wednesday - June 17, 2015

 

Hello once again from the West Texas Home For Old Jingoistic White Guys Who Do Not Feel Guilty About Their Race Gender Age Or Conspiratorial Tendencies.

 

TRANS:

 

Let us look at the word TRANS: prefix - over; across; beyond

 

We have all been subjected to any number of conditions which have added the prefix - trans to any number of conditions or states of being and I would like to discuss a few.

 

TRANSGENDER- From everything I have heard, particularly when discussing the Bruce Jenner TRANSFORMATION from being a male to being a female. According to what I have heard and read, Jenner just simply felt as if he were a woman trapped in a man's body. So he underwent some type of procedure, I am not entirely sure of the extent, which TRANSFORMED Bruce into a female calling herself Caitlyn Jenner. And of course Jenner was not the first time this has occurred but he certainly has become the most famous. BUT, I am sort of like Rhett Butler in the fact that "Frankly, I Don't Give a Damn". I don't know Bruce Jenner but have reached the conclusion that perhaps living a life with "The Kardashians" perhaps has a tendency to mess with your mind.

 

TRANSSEXUAL- From what I have read, this term is pretty much in the same category as TRANSGENDER with many females being changed to males through surgery but it also includes male to female. Not fully understanding the reasons why, I choose to remain uninformed on this matter. Again, Rhett and I are on the same page.

AH, but now we have a couple of terms that I have not heard tossed about before the past week or so and I don't even know whether they existed prior to that time and these terms are:

 

TRANSABILITY - And this term was applied to a guy who felt as if he were a disabled person trapped in the body of someone who was not disabled. According to the story the guy cut off his own arm so that he could achieve his true disabled state. I had never heard this before and hopefully this guy will not start a new trend but in these times...... who knows?

 

TRANSRACIAL - One of the definitions indicates that it an adjective describing something or someone who can be involved with TWO OR MORE RACIAL GROUPS.

However the latest use of this term has been used to describe the idiot female FORMER President of the SPOKANE NAACP. Her name is Rachel Dolezal. Rachel was born a Caucasian and both of her biological parents are Caucasian...... AH, but it ends there because Rachel felt as if she were a black person TRAPPED in a white person's body, or that is what I read/heard. Then of course if you watch or read about this woman, you begin to have some serious doubts as to her real reasons I saw several different pictures of Rachel and she was doing her level best to look like a light skin black female. Rachel is 37 years old and graduated from historically black Howard University and was teaching African studies at a local university. She was married to a black man. For years she described herself as black and allegedly complained repeatedly about being a victim of racial hatred. I am not sure how long she had been President of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP and when I really get to thinking about it, it is not a pivotal moment in my life on this planet and I must once again fall back on Ol' Rhett's not giving a damn attitude. BUT it did seem to get this goofy ass broad her 15 minutes of fame.

 

AND, after reading about these above mentioned TRANS feelings I thought of a new term involving the prefix TRANS. And that would be TRANSINTELLIGENCIA. Let's look at my meaning for this term.

TRANSINTELLIGENCIA: This would be my theory that inside every far left Progressive/Socialist/Marxist/Democrat who believes himself/herself much more intelligent and better educated than the rest of the human race, their lives a real died-in-the-wool IDIOT. AND inside every single Progressive/Socialist/Marxist/Democrat who admits that he/she might be an IDIOT..... there lives an even BIGGER IDIOT.

 

Just look about you at the present Obama Administration; The Speaker of the House of Representatives; The Senate Majority Leader; Hillary Clinton and her comical sidekick Bill; The President of MSNBC; The Mayor of Baltimore Maryland; The Mayor of New York City; The Governor of California; The Commissioner of the NFL; Geraldo Rivera; The great majority of our VARMINT LIST. AND perhaps the biggest IDIOTS of all, the majority of the AMERICAN VOTERS WHO ELECTED BARACK OBAMA FOR TWO TERMS.

 

As you see, our country is loaded with 'em. BUT we do have a chance to REVERSE this trend in the 2016 Presidential Election. The Conservatives in this country had better get off their collective backsides and not be fooled by the likes of JEB BUSH and Dr. Ben Carson and Mike Huckabee and a few more. The Democrat/Progressive/Socialist hold on our federal government must be broken...... and as soon as possible. Or else we had better come up with a new term:

TRANSSHAFTED: That is going from being SHAFTED by the federal government to being REALLY SHAFTED by those criminals in three piece suits.

 

HACKED:

 

OH NO!!!! The F.B.I. is now wasting time, money, and resources in an all out investigation to determine whether or not SOMEONE with the ST. LOUIS CARDINALS baseball franchise HACKED into the computer of the HOUSTON ASTROS and gathered up valuable information on..... God only knows what. NOW, while the F.B.I. and the Department of Justice is committing manpower and other resources toward solving this mystery, I have it already figured out. Here is my theory:

 

The Astros Computer was hacked by either Bill Belichick or Tom Brady or George Bush.

The reason it was hacked is to see if perhaps the Astros had finally solved the mystery of Global Warming/Climate Change OR perhaps the age old question of why Goofy, Mickey Mouse's best friend can talk while Pluto, Mickey Mouse's pet cannot and they are both DOGS?

 

This pathetic excuse for news has been dominating every single news channel slightly edging out the announcement of Donald Trump for President.

 

I must tell you that my Give-A-Shitter is BROKE and even Rhett Butler's thoughts are a bit too light for me.

"Professors at the University of California at Berkeley have been officially warned against saying such things as America is the land of opportunity. Why? Because this is considered to be an act of MICRO-AGGRESSION" against minorities and women. Supposedly it shows that you don't take their grievances seriously and are therefore guilty of being aggressive toward them, even if only on a micro scale."................ THOMAS SOWELL

THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Current attempts by the Obama administration to force low-income housing to be built in middle class and upscale communities are on a par with forcing people to buy the kind of health insurance the government wants them to buy -- ObamaCare -- rather than leaving them free to buy whatever suits their own situation and preferences."........

MORE STUFF:

 

This past week end there were two young people lost body parts due to two separate shark attacks off the coast of North Carolina. According to the news articles and television reports, a 12 year old girl lost her left arm below the elbow and suffered a leg injury Sunday afternoon. Then about an hour and twenty minutes later about two miles from where the girl was attacked a 16 year old boy had his arm bitten off above the elbow. Both had been swimming about 20 yard off shore in fairly shallow water. Some of the authorities said they saw a 7 foot shark in the area. I am sure that a shark even of smaller size is capable of causing serious injury or death to humans.

 

I grew up in Houston, Texas and on a fairly regular basis went to the beaches a Galveston; La Porte; Freeport and other areas on the Texas Gulf Coast. Not until I was about a Senior in High School did I receive a serious shark scare at the West Beach in Galveston. A couple of buddies and I skipped school just before some holiday and went fishing along the West Beach. We waded out into about waist deep water and were casting our bait out a bit further into deeper water. We all had caught several really nice speckled trout and were keeping them on stringers tied to our waist. I looked to my right just in time to see a rather large shark roll over by one of my buddies and he went under. My other buddy saw the same thing and we both thought our friend was gone so we both headed to the beach at a really fast rate. By the time we got into shallow water we saw our friend who had gone under come up and head toward shore at an even faster rate. When he got there we saw that the shark had gone for the fish on his stringer which was cut pretty near his waist. He was not injured but like us had the pure crap scared out of him.

 

That was my last time to wade out into the gulf even in shallow water. I did fish in the area later on but it was either from the bank; off a pier; or out of a boat.

 

I always got a kick out of those so called experts who would tell me that "The sharks are more afraid of you than you are of them". At which time I would promptly tell them that they were full of crap and that they could have no idea how terrified I was of sharks AND that if their opinions were true then there wouldn't be a shark left alive as they would all be dead of fear. Of course these are the same experts who tell us that rattlesnakes are more afraid of us than we are of them. More BS.

---------------------------------

I heard a story on the radio yesterday morning and I do not recall what city it was in but apparently an 11, Eleven, XI, once, year old boy was shooting baskets in his back yard for an hour and a half..... for those of you in the People's Republic Of San Francisco.... that is 90 minutes. And during this time period, his parents did not come outside to check on him. According to the story, the neighbors called the police and the parents were subsequently charged with something like Child Endangerment. I seem to remember another account of a couple of kids 6 or 7 years old who were playing in a park down the street from their house with no adult supervision, and their parents were also charged with Child Endangerment.

 

I guess they would have wanted to execute my parents who allowed me to ride a city bus in Houston from out house to downtown Houston to see a first run movie. And this was a ride of about 6 miles and after dark on the way home. I know that times are different now but a kid in his own back yard seems a bit of overkill.

------------------------

I watched several videos of Presidential hopeful Dr. Ben Carson. Now, while I believe Dr. Carson to be a good man and a very smart individual in his field, I have a few problems with his understanding of The Constitution of the United States. Dr. Carson was asked by a reporter, "Would it be alright for me to own a SEMI-AUTOMATIC handgun"? To which Dr. Carson replied, "It would depend on where you lived." DEPEND ON WHERE I LIVE? Well I live in The United States of America and regardless of the physical location of my primary place of residence, I don't believe the Second Amendment says that people who live in certain places may own arms to protect themselves.

 

I am not real sure that Dr. Carson has really been exposed to enough of the real world to be a good leader. He blew it with me with that answer. Of course I would prefer him over Hillary but I could say that about almost anybody.

-----------------------

AH, and then there is Lincoln Chafee who is poised to challenge Hillary. AND Lincoln's big gun item is to .... now get ready for this..... BRING BACK THE METRIC SYSTEM AND BRING US IN LINE WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD.

 

HEY!! If Lincoln manages to do that, then Denver, Colorado would go from the "Mile High City" to the "One Point Six Kilometer Elevation City".

 

What a boob.

---------------------------------

Just when a video of Bill O'Reilly's talk on black crime had been circulating and it seems as if Bill is finally getting ready to come out as a conservative, he makes the statement that Michelle Obama is a really good First Lady and that she really cares about Military Families. HEY BILL!! You must have been bitten by a Radioactive Dung Beetle if you believe that crap.

------------------------------

Sad to hear of the death of actor Christopher Lee who passed away at age 93. He maid loads of movies and was perhaps the best Dracula ever. But he made many other movies and was actually quite a good actor. I don't believe I ever heard any negative comments about him and have read many articles which told of the esteem in which he was held by his co-workers.

June 10th, 2015  ACCURACY /  STRATEGY

 

Wednesday - June 10, 2015

 

Greetings from The Association Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Vast Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

ACCURACY:

 

Well once again the History Channel has surpassed themselves in their alleged portrayal of Texas History. I watched enough of their program last evening to see that either very little or more than likely NO research had been done insofar as sticking to a factual portrayal.

 

But the Sunday evening program on Legends and Lies on FOX News was also pretty bad. This program was about former United States Marshal, Bass Reeves. I have read quite a bit about those years following the Civil War about the Indian Territory and the Law Officers and outlaws of that time. And everything I have read about U.S. Marshal Bass Reeves indicated that he was one of the best, if not the very best United States Marshals of that era. The history books I have read pretty much stated that he was absolutely the best tracker and no nonsense lawmen of those times. And Bass Reeves was a black man which was very unusual for that position at the time.

 

The Sunday night program on FOX News also indicated that he was tough and very good at tracking down wanted criminal and bringing them to court when he could but killing them if necessary. BUT where I found fault with this supposed factual program was not that Reeves didn't do everything claimed in the program but according to Bill O'Reilly and several black historical contributors, who all claimed that Bass Reeves was the model on which the fictional character THE LONE RANGER was patterned.

 

Now while these folks had a number of facts about the absolutely remarkable life of Bass Reeves I had to draw the line at him being the person on which the fictional character the Lone Ranger was patterned after. Obviously the people contributing to this program had very little knowledge about the creator/creators of The Lone Ranger character. The Lone Ranger character first appeared on radio in 1933 and it is still sort of up in the air about whether one or both of these people was the actual creator of the character. George W. Trendle was the owner of the Radio Station WXYZ in Detroit.  The writer of the program was Fran Striker, who most people believe was the actual creator of the character.

 

When I was a very young boy, I never missed an episode of The Lone Ranger on the radio and I started listening to the program when I was about 4 years old which would have been in 1941.  After I started elementary school in Houston I continued to listen to the radio programs as well as reading everything I could about this heroic character. I read several accounts of how The Lone Ranger got his start so I will relay that now.

 

John Reid was a TEXAS RANGER along with his brother Dan Reid Sr. They along with several other Texas Rangers got ambushed by the Cavendish gang and all of the Rangers were killed except for John Reid. He was found by Tonto, who became his "Faithful Indian Companion" who nursed him back to health. They buried all of the other Rangers and made an extra grave which supported the story that all of the Texas Rangers had been killed.

 

Then the stories went on to tell how he captured and trained his famous horse, Silver and how he decided to fight for justice as a masked Lone Ranger. The stories also told about how he arrived at using silver bullets and of course most everyone knows from that point on the various stories about how he and Tonto fought for justice in the old West. Most people at the time believe that THE LONE RANGER CHARACTER was actually patterned after a REAL TEXAS RANGER, CAPTAIN JOHN R. HUGHES who inspired Zane Grey in 1915 when he published his book, THE LONE STAR RANGER.

 

And a few years after THE LONE RANGER made his appearance on the radio show, another radio show on the same station appeared THE GREEN HORNET. And for those of you who remember The Green Hornet and his Filipino sidekick Kato, you may not know that BRITT REID who was in reality The Green Hornet was the Grand Nephew of John Reid, The Lone Ranger.

 

So as you can see, the Lone Ranger character was not based upon former U.S. Marshall Bass Reeves. And keep in mind that in 1933 which was the first appearance of The Lone Ranger, the U.S. was still operating with many states recognizing segregation as the law at the time. So it is doubtful that either Mr. Trendle or Mr. Striker probably base one of the all time Western Heroes on the life of a black U.S. Marshal. And this is certainly not meant to in any way minimize the great contribution Bass Reeves made to the Law Enforcement profession during those post Civil War years. As a matter of fact, he actually appeared to be an exceptional U.S. Marshal during some really tough times, particularly for a black person.

 

I meant to point out that POLITICAL CORRECTNESS, even at FOX News appears to be a driving force in their programming. AND it appears that ACCURACY has taken a back seat on pretty much every single news outlet in our country. AND ACCURACY certainly is a stranger to the Obama Administration and the incompetents he has employed.

 

STRATEGY:

 

According to a statement made by the world's most articulate and intelligent human, Barack Hussein Obama, in the battle against ISIS/ISIL, his pathetic administration DOES NOT HAVE A STRATEGY DEVELOPED YET TO COMBAT THE PROBLEM.

 

But wait a minute..... a few months back he made the same identical statement about not having a STRATEGY developed at that time. OK, one must wonder if even someone with his extremely WEAK LEADERSHIP QUALITIES might not get the idea that perhaps it is about time to develop a strategy?

OH, wait a minute!  I almost forgot. Our nation has a much more serious problem to deal with than innocent people being murdered by committed ISLAMIC TERRORISTS.  We have the GLOBAL WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE issues to deal with.  After all, isn't that what is foremost in all of your minds?

 

AND, let us not forget how much time is spent in trying to convince us and the rest of the world that NONE OF THIS can be attributed to the pathetically weak Obama Administration. No sir. All of our problems stem from the previous administration. George Bush is to blame for global terrorism and global warming/climate change.

 

**Now I don't know how everybody feels about our country sending troops to Iraq in 2003, but most of the elected officials at that time supported the move. Of course now it is damn near impossible to find anyone who will admit to their support. But the latest move is the attempt to blame the Bush Administration for the formation of ISIS/ISIL as the result of the invasion of Iraq.

 

I am certainly no military expert but in my view, ISIS/ISIL was not even heard of until well into the Obama Presidency and only then AFTER Barack Obama, against the advice of his military advisers, pulled ALL U.S. Military out of Iraq. So I will submit that it was not the invasion nearly so much as the premature abandonment of Iraq by the Obama Administration.**

 

**(Incidentally, I wrote my opinion in the two preceding paragraphs prior to reading Thomas Sowell's article this week but found out that my views were darn close to his, which makes me pretty sure my thoughts were correct.)**

 

So, when Barack Obama says that he has not DEVELOPED A STRATEGY TO ADDRESS A SITUATION, what he actually means is that he can escape any blame whatsoever about present problems facing us by simply lying and laying the blame on the previous administration.

 

It is fairly apparent that a pretty comprehensive STRATEGY has been adopted by Barack Hussein Obama and evidently by Hillary Rodham Clinton as well. AND that STRATEGY is simple. Just keep telling the same LIES over and over and enough uninformed American voters will buy into whatever it is they are saying at the time.

 

AND, if the American public does not wake up and see where we are headed, the STRATEGY of the Democrats/Progressives/Establishment Republicans/Socialists will work and we will be looking at at minimum of four years of absolute chaos in Washington, D.C.

QUOTES:

 

"Whether it was a mistake to invade Iraq in the first place is something that will no doubt be debated by historians and others for years to come. But, despite things that could have been done differently in Iraq during the Bush administration, in the end President Bush listened to his generals and launched the military surge that crushed the terrorist insurgents and made Iraq a viable country."................ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Despite the mistakes that were made in Iraq, it was still a viable country until Barack Obama made the headstrong decision to pull out all the troops, ignoring his own military advisers, just so he could claim to have restored peace, when in fact he invited chaos and defeat."......... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The academic community has in it the biggest concentration of alarmists, cranks and extremists this side of the giggle house.".... WILLIAM F. BUCKLEY JR.

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?

MORE STUFF:

 

I am sure that everyone has had a steady diet on darn near every channel on television regarding the incident in McKinney, Texas where a video was taken of an incident at a local swimming pool where the McKinney Police Department was called due to some problems which evidently involved a number of unwanted people showing up at a local pool which was evidently hosting some type of swim party.

 

One of the McKinney Officers was filmed putting a number of young people on the ground and at one point while he was kneeling on the ground next to a black female, a couple of young male subjects moved in on the officer at which time he drew his sidearm but kept the muzzle of the pistol pointed toward the ground. And the instant he drew his weapon, the two male subjects stopped and started moving away.

 

Now as I understand it, this action evidently violated departmental policy and during an investigation he was placed on Administrative Leave and during this time period, the officer resigned.

 

Of course the phone video immediately went on YouTube or some other public media and many people wanted the officer's head on a platter but some others said they thought he did the right thing. If, in fact he did violate departmental policy then he could be disciplined for his actions.

 

I was not present at the scene and only saw home made video in various clips and of course could not hear everything that was said. Some of the people who were calling for CRIMINAL CHARGES to be filed on the officer also complained that the officer used some profanity toward the young people being detained. On one of the videos I did hear one statement which I believe came from the officer when he said, "I told you to get your ass on the ground". According to some of the complaining parents, the officer had used FOUL LANGUAGE toward the young people.

 

Now I am not saying that his language was right or wrong but I can tell you that in a tense situation telling someone to "Get Their Ass On The Ground" is a pretty strong indication that the officer meant for the person/persons to get on the ground. I guess that if I had a nickel for every occasion that I ordered someone to "Get Their Ass On The Ground", I could purchase a nice fishing boat even larger than the boat purchased by that horrible traffic violator, Marco Rubio.

 

Anyway, it seems as if everyone, even people who are not police officers, should probably be aware that at any moment of the day, they might be caught on some telephone video. And, of course many times these videos do not show the entire situation or events which happened prior to the phone video being activated.

--------------------------------

I read this morning in the (Sub) Standard Times that the recent shooting of a terror suspect by one federal and one local officer is now being questioned by some special interest groups with one being the Black Community Information Center. Of course the family of the terrorist suspect stated that the two plain clothes officers approached the suspect, Usaama Rahim, "In a Military-Like Formation without a warrant." OK, my next question is for the family to explain to me what a two man military-like formation looks like. Oh, and before I forget, Imam Abdullah Faaruuq, head of the Mosque for the Praising of Allah, suggested that the authorities should have shared their information with him or other community leaders before taking action.  Yeah, that is a really good idea Abdullah.

------------------------

I personally don't give a damn about who wins the NBA Championship, but I just hope it ends soon. I had enough last week of almost every day we were subjected to pictures of Serena Williams screaming with a raised fist after winning one of her French Open matches. As most of you know, I acknowledge that LeBron James is an exceptional athlete but I am growing pretty weary of having to read and hear about his antics. If the NBA folded tomorrow, I would feel pretty much like Rhett Butler in the fact that I wouldn't give a damn.

-------------------------------

I also have had a belly full of the Duggar Family interviews on FOX News.

------------------------------------------

Was anyone out there surprised to learn that the TSA, a Federally Controlled Agency, hired 73 people with some type of "Terrorist Watch" ties? Or were you surprised to learn that on a check run by the Inspector General's Officer managed to get 96% of their terrorist equipment past these keen sensed folks? Does the term INCOMPETENCE ring a bell?

June 3rd, 2015  PRIORITIES /  TRUTH

 

Wednesday - June 3, 2015

 

Greetings from the Association Of Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Vast Right Wing Conspirator Of West Texas.

 

PRIORITIES:

 

I am sure that you have noticed as have I that our world is in pretty bad shape and our wonderful country is being driven into dangerous times by the most egotistical and clueless criminal administration to which we have ever been subjected. It is not only that we have a Socialist self centered President, but the sheer amount of real incompetents which he has appointed as advisors and Bureau Heads.

 

To me an excellent example of this is looking at the Department of Justice which leapt from the incompetent hands Of Eric Holder right into the clutches of an equally incompetent Loretta Lynch.

 

With all of the criminal activities of the IRS and other branches of the federal government Ms. Lynch evidently decided that seeking indictments against the head of FIFA and approximately 14 other FIFA Officials. Now I am not sure but I would think that the Department Of Justice might just have a few more pressing matters to deal with than the governing body of World Soccer.

 

In my opinion, soccer is a game to be watched if your kids, your grandkids, or your great grandkids are participants.  Watching a bunch of Europeans take a dive every time they are touched is not my idea of a real athletic contest. Yes, I realize that the remainder of the world is trying to get the American public to give up American football but I don't look for that to happen in my lifetime. Of course, if the NFL keeps following their present course I could give it up at least at the professional level.

 

But getting back to PRIORITIES, I would have to think that with TERRORISM and with our elected officials being involved in some pretty shaky dealings that there just might be a few items a bit more important to the American people and our country than some skullduggery being conducted by FIFA Officials.

 

I also am a bit confused regarding the expiration of the Patriot Act. When this legislation was passed immediately after 9/11, I along with a number of other people in this country were not quite sure exactly what it covered but were led to believe that it was necessary for the protection of our country. And immediately following 9/11 I imagine that I would have probably supported lots of things in order to protect the American people.

 

But with these criminals now in charge of the White House, I am positive that my level of trust in the federal government has, as they say, GONE SOUTH. First of all, under normal conditions, I personally don't give a damn about who knows whom I call or how long we talk or even the gist of our conversation. Since I have taken part in a number of Title III wiretap cases, I know that I would NEVER trust our communications systems to be secure enough to plan anything that was against the law.

 

But with these bozos now in charge of damn near every branch of our federal government, I cannot trust them to not trump up something with which to cause me legal problems. Just look back over the past 10 or 12 years and look at the federal indictments handed down for some pretty shaky things.  Remember Irving Lewis "Scooter" Libby who was indicted by a federal prosecutor in the BUSH Department of Justice for making known the identification of a person, Valerie Plame, when not only the prosecutor but lots of other folks already knew who had released Plame's name to the public?  This was purely a case of the Department of Justice investigating someone when the actual identity of the culprit was already known.

 

I can remember back years ago when I had confidence in the Department of Justice when local law enforcement officers worked closely with various federal officials. I have personally worked cases with the F.B.I.;  the Secret Service; the BATF; the DEA; the Border Patrol; the United States Army; U.S. Customs and several more federal officials. Our working relationship was exceptional and I had faith in those officers and agencies.

 

I am sorry to say that this is no longer the case. Only yesterday I saw former General David Petraeus talking before some committee and agreeing that the five Terrorists held at Guantanamo should have been traded for Bowe Bergdahl. I was a bit taken back but I don't know why I should have been. We were told for months that David Petraeus was the greatest thing since sliced bread but then we find out that his basic honesty is somewhat questionable.

 

Anyway, my point is that I DO NOT TRUST THIS PRESENT FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION to be honest in their dealings with the American people..... which includes ME.

 

It appears to me as if the PRIORITIES of our present federal government is to do everything in their power to circumvent the United States Constitution and believe me when I say that the Patriot Act and more than likely this new proposed USA Freedom Act will attempt to do the exact same thing.

 

KEEP IN MIND:  The federal government (ALL BRANCHES) have already stuffed the First Amendment up our backsides. They are doing everything within their power to ROB US of our Second Amendment Rights. And the Patriot Act and I feel sure this latest substitute for the Patriot Act will strip us of our Fourth Amendment Rights against illegal searches.

 

 

These mutts preach against PROFILING (which works rather well) on criminals and terror suspects, but are more than ready to accept Constitutional Rights infringements on the rest of us. BUT what should we expect from a bunch of Political Correctness Indoctrinated Jerks?

 

TRUTH:

 

For a number of years I was a huge fan of The History Channel. BUT, in the past few years they have decided that the majority of their daily and nightly programs will be nothing but "REALITY" type programming. I am referring to PAWN STARS;  ICE ROAD TRUCKERS; THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE;  COUNTING CARS; AMERICAN PICKERS and several more which are ANYTHING BUT REALITY. They are scripted just like Naked and Afraid; Fat Guys In The Woods ALL of the Dating Shows and several more.

 

The Military History and the History II Channels show some pretty good stuff but the original History Channel is pure crap. AH, but their latest below pitiful effort is their mini-series TEXAS RISING. As an old boy who lived a great deal of his life in Texas and being exposed to Texas History in school for a number of years, I found this TEXAS RISING program to be really insulting and far from being even close to the real occurrences during the days of Texas Independence. Oh, some of the names of the characters are real but it ends there. I would imagine that the people responsible for this piece o' crap show have probably never been to San Antonio nor have they ever been to Goliad or Gonzales or to the San Jacinto River where the final battle took place. The people at Goliad who surrendered to Santa Anna were marched away from the town and executed by Mexican Soldiers. Also there are NO MOUNTAINS near Goliad or Gonzales or San Antonio or any other place near the Texas Gulf Coast.

 

But of course the makers of this inaccurate piece of junk had to have a black female introduced into the film as a spy for General Sam Houston. They also demoted Mirabeau Bonaparte Lamar.  They made Sam Houston look like a really weak leader. Sam Houston might have been a lot of things but weak wasn't one of 'em. Anyway the program is an inaccurate piece of junk and I was going to say beneath the dignity of the History Channel but when I get to thinking about it, it seems to fit right in with their other junk. The program is FALSE.

 

Then we have Legends and Lies which is shown every Sunday evening on FOX News Channel and is based upon the book of the same name written by Bill O'Reilly. Some of the earlier programs seem to be fairly sprinkled with TRUTH but after last week watching the program on William Bonny (Billy the Kid) I came to the conclusion that it was also a bunch of crap. One of the scenes showed Billy the Kid sitting around a campfire with a bunch of older outlaws when one of them made a remark challenging his abilities with a pistol at which time Billy the Kid tossed an empty can into the air and promptly shot six holes in the can before it fell to the ground.

 

Now having lived in New Mexico for 30 years and having studied quite a bit of New Mexico History and having read many volumes on the Lincoln County War and the folks involved in that little fracas, I seriously doubt if William Bonny ever did that little trick. Most of the people in the Western States during the 1800s didn't do much show boating and many of them were not necessarily super fast on the draw nor did quite a large number of them even wear holsters like they show in the movies. Most of the real bad asses just flat didn't put up with a bunch of foolishness and would shoot someone at the least provocation. I read in one book that Doc Holliday was not all that accurate with a handgun because he was drunk or high on drugs most of his waking hours BUT what he was known for was being very dangerous and not one to put up with a bunch of guff and would make sure that he shot until someone fell.

 

Probably the really best shots and real pistoleros were John Wesley Hardin and James Butler Hickok who were both shot in the back.

 

The real bad ass was Killin' Jim Miller. He frequented towns in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Most of his victims were shot in the back, many with a shotgun. Killin' Jim and one of his cohorts were lynched in Ada, Oklahoma at a livery stable. They had murdered a really popular local man and while in jail hired a top notch attorney and the good citizens of Ada decided to settle the matter out of court.

 

Anyway, I prefer programs that are shown on the History Channel and on FOX News to at least try to be TRUTHFUL..... which at this point, in my opinion, they are NOT!

QUOTES:

 

"Baltimore is now paying the price for irresponsible words and actions, not only by young thugs in the streets, but also by its mayor and the state prosecutor, both of whom threw the police to the wolves, in order to curry favor with local voters."............... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"Racial demagoguery gains votes for politicians, money for race hustling lawyers and a combination of money, power and notoriety for armies of professional activists, ideologues and shakedown artists."........... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The Department of Justice has threatened various local police departments with lawsuits unless they adopt the federal government's ideas about how police work should be done......... The high cost of lawsuits virtually guarantees that the local police department is going to have to settle the case by bowing to the Justice Department's demands -- not on the merits, but because the federal government has a lot more money than a local police department, and can litigate the case until the local police department runs out of the money needed to do their work.".............. THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

I know that most of us get tired of the constant bombardment of commercials whether they or on television,  radio, OR those super annoying recorded telephone hustles. I am sure that, like me, if you happen to be watching television while you are eating, a commercial about hemorrhoids, trans-vaginal mesh, toenail fungus, or acid reflux could be done without.

 

But I guess some of the most annoying commercials are the ones regarding someone's "CREDIT SCORE" and showing how some idiot "GETS THEIR CREDIT SWAGGER" back. I do not work for a lending institution but I have worked for my father when I was younger and after his death in a retail business in which he gave credit to people whom he thought were good risks and responsible. Of course not all of the were but he did do a pretty darn good job of judging character.

 

I am constantly getting mail advising me that my credit score is something like 847, which I guess is supposed to be good. But these idiotic commercials show arrogant people whose credit scores are somewhere in the low to medium 700s and these people act like you owe them something. I would imagine that after I first got married and had to finance my home and at least one automobile that had I acted like these television boobs I would have been homeless.

 

Of course during those years we did not attempt to live way above our means and we had NO CREDIT CARDS and with a family income of somewhere in the neighborhood of $700 per month we did not try to live in a $200,000 home nor drive the fanciest automobiles or SUVs. And I can assure you that we lived fairly well and got to do some things. Of course I also took extra work as much as possible.

 

It is a small wonder that the youth of today are having financial problems.

----------------------------

I would like to take this opportunity to ANNOUNCE THAT I WILL NOT BE A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

 

I am so damn sick of these idiotic politicians going through the motions of making their announcements as if it were some Biblical Prophecy.

 

Ted Cruz was the first to announce his candidacy and I cannot remember who was second but it could have been Marco Rubio. Anyway when idiots like Lindsey Graham and Mike Huckabee and several more on the Republican side make a big to do about making an announcement at some future date, it makes me believe that they must think we are as foolish as they are in not knowing what their announcement will be.

 

What we really need are a few more Republicans to decide to toss their hat into the ring, as if there were not enough already. Former Texas Governor Rick Perry, according to one report I read, came out an made the statement that he was in support of IN STATE TUITION for Illegal Aliens. Perhaps now you know why he is not on my Good Guys list.

--------------------------------------------

OH BOY! Former Republican Lincoln Chaffee is getting ready to make his announcement. I am really caught up in the excitement of that bit of news.

-----------------------------

Anyway, I have been without a computer for about a week and although I have a laptop and can reply to a message I did not have my complete address book saved on it and have been unable to generate much of anything. I am not computer literate enough to know how to transfer my complete list from one computer to another but I will try to find out from someone. We don't have any Jr. High kids living in our neighborhood anymore so I can't depend on one of them.

----------------------------

As a final thought, I am not sure that perhaps having to live with the Kardashians might have some type of effect upon one's sanity but I can't be sure. Also I find it a bit much when various news reporters talk on their programs about how COURAGEOUS it is of Bruce Jenner to go through a trans-gender procedure. Ol' Bruce going through that procedure is not a pivotal moment in my life but I equate courage as to acts performed by people who actually risk their lives and safety and like our founding fathers their fortunes in order to perform an act which will help or save others. I am sure that is pretty old fashioned but if the trans-gender deal is what Bruce Jenner wanted, it is no skin off my ass. BUT COURAGEOUS?

-------------------------------

Last week I was watching one of my all time favorite movies, The Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood and tons of great supporting actors. At one point in the movie, Josey Wales had a conversation with the Comanche Chief, Ten Bears (Will Sampson). During their conversation Chief Ten Bears made a statement which I can apply as the gospel insofar as my opinion of the Obama Administration. The quote was: "It is sad that governments are chiefed by the DOUBLE TONGUES".  I thought that line was as good a description of the Obama Administration as I ever heard.

 

THROW THE DOUBLE TONGUES OUT!

May 27th, 2015  OBSERVATION

 

Wednesday - May 27, 2015

 

Hello once more from the West Texas Home For Jingoistic Fossil Fuel Burning Right Wing Conspirators.

 

OBSERVATION:

 

I once read a quote from one of the ancient Greek philosophers, I can't remember which one, that went..... "True education is the close OBSERVATION of the world around you."

 

I believed that to be a true statement and still do to this day.

It appears to me as if many of todays "Low Information Voters" have little or no powers of observation.  And it is not too hard to understand when almost everywhere you go you see more people than not with some type of electronic device held up to their head or else they are staring at a screen and working their thumbs at warp speed.

 

One morning last week it was raining a bit so I took my morning walk inside the Sunset Mall.  The mall opens its outside doors early to accommodate people who want to walk for their exercise. Two laps around the inside of the mall is one mile in length so it is fairly easy to know how far you have walked.  On one of my turns around the inside of the mall I saw a total of 16 people.  Four of these people were walking as I was which left a dozen who were sitting on various benches.  One of these persons was a little kid who was playing in the play area.  His mother was sitting on a bench with her thumbs operating some type of touch screen device.  I saw one young man and a young lady sitting by themselves and both of them had their heads buried in their touch screen phones.  The other people I saw were sitting by themselves and every single one of them was working their touch screen phones as fast as possible.

 

It dawned on me that out of the sixteen persons, whom I saw, twelve of them were not exercising and one of them was a small child.  Every other adult in the mall was concentrating on their hand held electronic device.  As I was walking I passed in front of a pet shop window and in the front window was an area which held a number of cats ranging from small kittens up to one full grown cat.  There were, as well as I can remember, nine cats in the area where they had all kinds of towers and rest areas.  The adult cat was minding her own business but the other eight smaller cats were involved in a constant game of chasing each other or batting around one of the toys.  I stopped for a minute or so and watched these creatures and had a good laugh at their antics.  And I thought that it was a shame that the majority of the persons in that mall were missing the greatest show in the area.  It also dawned on me that these people along with quite a large segment of our population do not take the time to OBSERVE anything other than the screens on their personal communications devices.  A damn sad commentary on our times.

 

There is no way that any of these people were even thinking about OBSERVATION of the world around them.  I just wondered how many American voters today have taken time to really

OBSERVE one of our most sacred holidays and I am speaking of MEMORIAL DAY.  Now I am from the old school who still believes that Memorial Day is on May 30th but in the spirit of Political Correctness the holiday is moved around to coincide with a long week end.  I guess I can live with that but what concerns me is just how few people...particularly the MILLENIALS even know what this holiday is about.

I can tell you one thing that I have OBSERVED over the past 6 years.  And that fact is that neither Barack Hussein Obama nor Michelle Obama really have any regard for our present or past Military.  Oh sure, he places the wreath on Memorial Day but how does he act toward our Military the remainder of the year.  Memorial Day, much like other patriotic days of observance are nothing more than an opportunity for him to either speak to a captive audience or have his photo taken in a patriotic setting.

What do you mean by "Captive Audience"?   What I am referring to is my OBSERVATION of Barack Obama's commencement address to the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. Here he is speaking to a group of young men and women who have just completed their college courses and are about to graduate and enter into one of our Military Branches.  SO, what does the world's most articulate and intelligent human dwell upon in this address?  Why, what else?   CLIMATE CHANGE.  What a joke.

 

And what really gets to me is the fact that these young men and women have no choice but to sit through this agonizing crap and cannot really display their feelings regarding what they have just been subjected to.  This is my idea of a real CAPTIVE AUDIENCE.

 

I also managed to OBSERVE the performance of the Director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, CHARLES E. SAMUELS JR.   Charles E. Samuels Jr. is a black man who is evidently just another professional public administrator and of course doesn't appear to have a clue as to some nuts and bolts of the operation of the Federal Prison System.   He was asked a simple question by a 100% VARMINT, Senator Al Franken, regarding the size of a solitary confinement prison cell in the Federal System.  Now you obviously know that I wouldn't pee on Al Franken if he were on fire but the question was rather simple, I thought.  CHARLES E. SAMUELS JR. however could not answer the question and when he did guess at an answer he came up with the ridiculous measurements of SIX FEET BY FOUR FEET.  Now if he had been asked for the measurements of "The Box" in "Cool Hand Luke", his guess might have been close but of course it wasn't.

 

But this is just another example of a complete incompetent boob being appointed to a six figure job, as I understand it is something like $210,000 per year.  Barack can sure pick 'em can't he.   I mean, Stevie Wonder is blind but can see that this guy is a pathetic excuse for a Director of ANYTHING.

 

One final OBSERVATION.   It seems that since the idiot Mayor of Baltimore and the idiot Prosecuting State Attorney in Baltimore have really taken over the reins of the Baltimore Police Department that order has finally been established.  I read where last week end Baltimore recorded 29 shootings with 9 fatalities.

 

AH, but not to worry, the City of Chicago, during this same time period recorded 56 shootings with 12 fatalities.  Not bad for a city with some of the strictest firearms laws in the country.

 

Perhaps STEPHANIE RAWLINGS-BLAKE and RAHM EMANUEL should be appointed to some high powered position in the Obama Administration.... they both seem incompetent enough.  But that is just an OBSERVATION on my part.

 

Anyway, I am pretty sure that all of these week end shootings were the fault of either:  George Bush, Climate Change, or FOX News.

MORE STUFF:

 

On Memorial Day I watched a steady diet of World War II in HD on one of the History Channels.  There was a bunch of footage which I had never seen before.  I was particularly interested in the segments on Iwo Jima; Tarawa; Saipan; Peleliu; and Okinawa.   I knew people and had relatives who served in the USMC and the U.S. Army during these campaigns.  I heard a few stories from some of them and the films I watched on Memorial Day sure seemed to bear out those stories.

 

Anyway, these folks are called "The Greatest Generation" and I am inclined to agree with that description.  Of course I know that people who served in Korea; Vietnam; Iraq; and Afghanistan all have served with great honor.

I do not claim to have the answer to our present problems in the Middle East BUT I would bet that I would do a hell of a lot better job insofar as listening to my Military Commanders and their suggestions than I would in listening to the likes of John Kerry and some of the rest of this team of incompetents.

Another real quick OBSERVATION on how unbiased the MEDIA is:

But when it is a Republican or Conservative candidate they use the term ........... RIGHT  WING

May 21st, 2015  PHONIES   /   SPEED

 

Wednesday - May 20, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the Association Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Right Wing Conspiratorial Fossil Fuel Burning Second Amendment Supporters Of West Texas.

 

PHONIES:

Where do I start?

OK, how 'bout another shot at at least part of the NFL Teams. Fourteen of them to be specific. These are the NFL teams who were PAID BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT to put on either Pre-Game or Half-Time Salutes To The United States Military. From the articles I have read, these payoffs occurred from 2011 through 2014.  Here is a list of the Teams and the cities whom they represent as well as the amount of money paid to each franchise during this time period:

 

1)  Atlanta Falcons ................ $1.1 million

2)  Baltimore Ravens .............  $ 884,500

3)  Buffalo Bills ......................  $ 679,000

4)  Cincinnati Bengals ............  $  138,000

5)  Cleveland Browns ............  $   22,500

6)  Dallas Cowboys ................  $   62,500

7)  Green Bay Packers ............  $  600,000

8)  Indianapolis Colts .............  $  620,000

9)  Kansas City Chiefs .............  $  250,000

10) Miami Dolphins ................  $   20,000

11) Minnesota Vikings ............  $  585,000

12) N.Y. Jets ...........................  $  378,000

13) Pittsburgh Steelers ...........  $   36,000

14) St. Louis Rams ..................  $   60,000

 

GRAND TOTAL ........................  $ 5,436,400.

 

Every article I read said that this FIVE MILLION FOUR HUNDRED THIRTY SIX THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS of OUR TAX MONEY was taken from the Military Budget. Now keep in mind that during this time period, we were told that the evil Republican Congress was cutting the Military Budget and that the size of our military had to be reduced and no new positions would be in the future due to these budget cuts.

 

Now if you stop and think, even if this money was taken from the military, it should not have gone to the NFL Teams.....keeping in mind that the National Football League is carried by the IRS as a NON-PROFIT MAKING ORGANIZATION. How is that possible?
Also I am a bit surprised as Michelle Obama could have taken five additional vacations or appeared on the Ellen Degeneres show several more times.

ALSO, you might notice that the EVIL NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS nor BILL BELICHICK nor TOM BRADY nor GEORGE BUSH could be blamed for this theft of taxpayer money. Also you might note that MANMADE GLOBAL WARMING was not held accountable for this criminal payment to NFL Teams. Also, it would appear that at least some of the Congressmen/women and some Senators should have been aware of this Larceny.

--------------

Also in the area of pure PHONIES other than the NFL, I might make mention of GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS and and his contribution of $75,000 to the CLINTON FOUNDATION.... while he was posing as a NEWS REPORTER for ABC.

What gets my backside red as a three ball is that ABC and the rest of the Mainstream Media and even FOX News appeared to accept STEPHANOPOULOS as a legitimate reporter. I am going to say this once and then move on:

 

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS has ALWAYS BEEN and will ALWAYS BE a DEMOCRAT HACK.  He was a "Butt Boy" for the Clintons for years and then suddenly, overnight, he was passed off as a News Reporter. He was also, as I understand, going to be the PRIMARY ABC ANCHOR for the 2016 Presidential Election. Now there is an unbiased view from the ABC News department.  In my opinion, GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS trying to pass himself off as an "Objective Reporter" is just about as PHONY as it gets. STEPHANOPOULOS is about as objective as Michelle Obama.

 

SPEED:

 

Almost every year since 1979, my wife and I have driven at least once per year to Lake City, Colorado. If you are not familiar with Lake City, Colorado it is located on the Western Slope of the Continental Divide which you must cross if you are approaching the town from the South or East. After you cross the Divide, the trip from over 11,000 feet down to about 8,500 feet is rather steep with loads of curves which you must negotiate. If you do not use your gears to slow you down, by the time you get to Lake City, your brakes will be history. I know from experience.

 

Anyway, a number of these curves show a speed limit of 15 M.P.H. Now you can probably make them at a somewhat higher speed but I have learned that 15 M.P.H. means exactly that and I NEVER exceed those posted limits. Should you try to make one of those hairpin curves at 30 M.P.H. you would probably find yourself and your vehicle at the bottom of a rather deep canyon. Things like that happen almost every year in mountainous regions.

 

SO, when I first heard of the AMTRAK wreck between Washington, D.C. and N.Y. City, and that the accident happened on a curve, I immediately said that the train was more than likely speeding. Now I do not have a degree in physics nor even a degree in mathematics nor do I have a law degree from Harvard nor have I ever been an engineer on a train of any type. BUT I do know that when the maximum speed for a curve is 50 M.P.H. and you try to make it at 106 M.P.H. that more than likely your vehicle will leave its course and bad things will happen. NOW, why the train was going that fast is still not known for sure but I might just hazard a guess that perhaps that goofy looking engineer they keep showing was trying to make up his 15 minutes he was behind on the schedule.

But I am sure that once all of the attorneys representing AMTRAK;  the engineer;  the passengers; and the families of the injured and deceased finally get things sorted out I should imagine that my initial prediction will be the primary cause of the accident and the subsequent injuries and deaths.

 

AH, but let us not be too hasty. MSNBC's Chris Matthews might just be on to something. Chris came to the conclusion that....now get ready for this...... In China, where they have very fast trains, have STRAIGHT TRACKS with NO CURVES. SO, Chris has decided that perhaps here in America we do things like the do in China and just straighten out the tracks.

Of course Chris Matthews perhaps is ignorant of the fact that in China, there is very little or NO private ownership and if the Chinese Government decides that your house is in the way they simply tear it down and run their straight track where once was your house. I also must wonder if Chris Matthews has "A Full Stringer of Fish" insofar as common sense when he makes idiotic statements and suggestions. HOWEVER, he seems to be running on a "Straight Track" insofar as being damn near as idiotic as the remainder of MSNBC's crack staff. Keep in mind that AL SHARPTON has a one hour show on every day in the afternoons on MSNBC.

 

But in the long run when you try to negotiate a curve in a very top heavy vehicle and you are traveling at 106 M.P.H. when the speed limit is 50 M.P.H. it should not take a team of experts all that long to arrive at the conclusion that SPEED was the primary cause of the de-railment.

Despite pious rhetoric on the left about asking the more fortunate for more money, the government does not ask anything. It seizes what it wants by force.

I have a suggestion to outlaw motorcycle gangs who wish to resort to gun-play. I would suggest that perhaps they go to Baltimore, Maryland where an idiot Mayor and an idiot City Council and an Idiot state prosecutor don't seem to have a problem with restraining the Baltimore Police Department from taking action. As a matter of fact, the idiot Mayor would probably see that the outlaw motorcycle gangs had plenty of room to do their criminal activities.  Just a thought.

Apparently trying that crap in Waco, Texas results in some pretty rapid and decisive action by the Texas Law Enforcement authorities.

--------------------------------

I believe it was last evening when I was watching Bill O'Reilly.... you know.... "The Spin Stops Here" and "Fair and Balanced". O'Reilly had on a guest whom he introduced as a "Former Leader of the Bandidos Motorcycle Gang".  This guy who DID NOT claim to be a Former Leader but rather more of a hanger on and later a member of the Bandidos told O'Reilly and the rest of the viewing audience that The Bandidos WERE NOT heavily involved in the drug trafficking business or any other type of organized criminal activities. He told O'Reilly and the rest of the viewing audience that most of the members of the Outlaw Motorcycle Gang were just every day hard working people who liked to ride their Harleys on the week ends but that most of them got up and went to work at regular jobs and this was just more or less a hobby.

OK, I am going to go way out on a limb and say that either this guy is LYING or HAS NEVER REALLY BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THE BANDIDOS OUTLAW MOTORCYCLE GANG.

 

He said that since he lived in Oklahoma, there were no Bandidos in that state and that they were pretty much just located in Texas. Actually they started in Texas by a guy who worked in Houston but actually lived in San Leon which is between Houston and Galveston. The gang had its beginnings in 1966 and was primarily unique to the Houston and Gulf Coast area. BUT, like the Hell's Angels and some other Outlaw Gangs they rapidly expanded and now have grown to international proportions with chapters in: Texas, Louisiana, Missouri, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, New Mexico, Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Utah, Idaho, Nevada, OKLAHOMA, Nebraska as well as international members in Canada, France, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia and other spots around the globe so this O'Reilly former Bandidos Leader was a bit off base. AND of course, Bill O'Reilly probably having no knowledge about the subject than lots of folks never challenged this bozo.

 

The Bandidos are known as the One Percenters (1%) , which is a play on the fact that 99% of the motorcycle clubs are not outlaws but the 1% are. Their motto is "We are the people our parents warned us about."

 

The Bandidos along with the other Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs are heavily into Drug Smuggling; Extortion; Theft; Prostitution; and several other organized criminal activities. THEY ARE NOT JUST A BUNCH OF REGULAR WORKING GUYS WHO RIDE THEIR HARLEYS ON THE WEEK ENDS.

 

And they were one of the Outlaw Gangs which was instrumental in the shooting and gang violence at the Twin Peaks Restaurant in the Waco area. Looks like at least 9 of them got what they deserved.

--------------------------------

I read one report last week where some boob paid..... ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY NINE MILLION DOLLARS; $179 Million; $179,000,000.00 for a Picasso Painting. Wonder if Barack and the rest of the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists/Marxists agree with that kind of spending?

-------------------------------

Anyway, it looks as if Hillary Clinton will just be unavailable for comment until after the Republicans get through running each other through the grinder. I can only hope that NONE of the ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS is the final pick to run for President in 2016 on the Republican ticket.

May 13th, 2015   OVERKILL   /   ABSURD

 

 

 

Wednesday - May 13, 2015

 

Hello once again from the West Texas Headquarters Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Second Amendment Supporting Vast Right Wing Conspirators.

 

WHAT  IS  IT?  OVERKILL/ABSURD:

 

I know that AARP is not very popular with lots of people including me.  But in spite of what Glenn Beck says, our supplemental health insurance partially provided by my former employer is handled through United Health Insurance and AARP.  So regardless of my personal feelings and Glenn Beck's sage advice, I pretty well have no choice unless I want to pay an extra approximately $240 per month or  unless Glenn Beck wants to pay for my supplemental coverage, I am stuck with AARP.  And being an AARP member, we receive their monthly news publication.  I do not necessarily read every single word in the publication but on occasion my wife will call something to my attention and I will read the article.

 

The most recent publication had a list of "Most Livable Cities".  AND, in the TOP TEN MOST LIVABLE  CITIES THEY HAD..... now get ready for this...... WASHINGTON, D.C. and  BALTIMORE, MD. Now, I have never personally been to Baltimore, MD. but from what I have seen the past few weeks about their city government, I might just have a slight issue with this half-ass run city being one of my top ten choices. AH, but AARP also listed our nation's capital... WASHINGTON, D.C. as also being the number 9 most livable cities.  I have been to Washington, D.C. and reached the opinion that the Smithsonian and the Monuments and Memorials should be salvaged but the remainder of the city should be vaporized by a Klingon Bird of Prey Battle Cruiser.

 

The rocket scientists at AARP also had San Francisco as the #1 most livable city.  I have been to San Francisco and had rather be pecked to death by a duck than live there.  The also had several cities in Minnesota and Massachusetts listed and I could not comment as I have never been to any of those places.  But I did not see one single city in Texas or Florida or Arizona or New Mexico or Oklahoma on the lists of "Most Livable Cities".  SO I believe that I will classify this list as ABSURDITY OF BIBLICAL PROPORTION!

-------------------------------------------------

 

OK.  With radical fools trying to kill Americans at every turn, it seems as if the Mainstream Media and most of the Television News Programs have decided that the Tom Brady suspension by the NFL Commissioner as being pretty high on the list of really important things happening around the globe.  In case you have been living in a cave for the past 5 months, the NFL's crack investigation finally came to an end regarding the deflated footballs allegedly used by the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game between New England and Indianapolis.  According to the NFL rule, there is a league minimum of  12.5 pounds per square inch of air to be in the game balls.  Each team furnishes their own footballs used by their offense.  Evidently one or more of the footballs used by the New England Patriots had less than the mandated 12.5 PSI inflation.

 

Perhaps at this point I might point out that New England beat Indianapolis like a "Tied Goat" and it is highly unlikely that the suspected deflated balls would have made any difference.  If my memory serves me, I seem to remember that Tom Brady could have been throwing a lopsided cantaloupe that day and still won the game rather handily.  BUT this offense could not go unnoticed by Commissioner Roger Goodell and of course since it was the New England Patriots who won the game, Goodell had swing into action and do something to look like he was earning his PLUS $40 MILLION per year salary.

 

Make no mistake about this.  Neither the deflated ball nor Tom Brady were really the target of this whole load-o-crap investigation.  The MEDIA absolutely hate Patriots Coach Bill Belichick and this is more about that than it is whether or not Quarterback Tom Brady was involved in the alleged deflation of the game balls.

BUT, after months of intensive investigation, the final report.... 243 pages of it... were turned in to Roger Goodell who immediately reached a conclusion that Tom Brady and the Patriots organization MUST  BE  PUNISHED to PRESERVE  THE  INTEGRITY  OF  THE  LEAGUE.  SO, here is the fair punishment handed down by this overpaid CEO:

 

TOM BRADY - Suspended four games in 2015 (Pittsburgh;  Buffalo;  Jacksonville;  Dallas)

 

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS:  Fined $1 MILLION DOLLARS; Forfeit 1st round draft pick in 2016;  fourth round draft pick in 2017

 

PATRIOT  STAFFERS:  Locker room attendant and equipment assistant  suspended indefinitely

 

According to several stories I have heard and read, the $1 Million fine was levied because the organization should have known about what was going on.

 

OH, did I forget to mention that according to the investigation that the results in the opinion of the investigator were that Quarterback Tom Brady .... now get ready:
"MORE  THAN  LIKELY  KNEW  ABOUT  THE  DEFLATION  OF  THE  FOOTBALLS".

More Than Likely? That doesn't sound very positive results of this 243 page report.  AND, if the New England Patriots Organization "Should have been aware" of what was going on.... then I submit that the NFL and the ever vigilant Roger Goodell should probably suspend the Officiating Crew in that game for at least four games.  From what I see in an NFL game, normally ONE  SINGLE  OFFICIAL  places the ball and marks it ready for play on EACH  PLAY.  SO, if this under-inflated ball was so noticeable, then why did this NFL Official notice it at some point during the game?

 

I don't know whether Tom Brady knew ahead of time about the deflated footballs and if he did, it is not a pivotal moment in my life.

 

Trust me when I tell you that this is NOT about under-inflated balls nor Tom Brady nor the equipment people... it is about the SPORTS  MEDIA not liking Head Coach Bill Belichick because he doesn't kiss their backsides. THIS  INVESTIGATION AND PUNISHMENT  IS OVERKILL  AND  ABSURD.

 

Now keep your ears tuned and see if pretty soon we don't hear that the federal government will get involved in some type of oversight of all professional sports.  Don't forget that Barack Hussein Obama and a number of Senators and Congressmen have already shown interest in federal monitoring of professional sports.

MORE STUFF:

 

I just wonder how Mr. Goodell would have fared back in the 1950s and 1960s when he would have had to deal with George Halas and a bunch of those old time owners and head coaches?  In case you haven't figured it out yet,  I have NO USE WHATSOEVER for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

-----------------------------------

A week or so back I watched  interviews with a couple of residents of that top ten LIVABLE CITIY, Baltimore, MD. They were both black females who lived in the area of the looting and arson and rioting.  One of them said that they were going to HAVE  TO  CHANGE  OUR "SYSTEMIC SYSTEM" before things could get better.  The other one said that they were going to HAVE  TO  CHANGE  THEIR "SYSTEMATIC SYSTEM" before the quality of life improved.

After listening to these two statements I came to the conclusion that these two heifers had heard the word SYSTEMIC and SYSTEMATIC somewhere and had absolutely no idea what either word meant and were just parroting someone else.  I also decided that they both probably possessed the I.Q. of a slug. Let's look at the word SYSTEM, which is the root word of both systemic and systematic.

SYSTEM - an orderly way of doing something

SYSTEMATIC - orderly

SYSTEMIC - affecting the body as a whole

SO, neither of their statements made any sense whatsoever.  Sure makes you want to move to Baltimore, don't it?

----------------------------------

Also, I have read so damn many different reports about this "Operation Jade Helm 15" that it is impossible for me to feel any way than it is "Much Ado About Nothing".

I can certainly understand how many people DO  NOT  TRUST the federal government but stop and think for a moment.  There are 7 states involved in the exercise:

Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah and Colorado;

 

HOSTILE STATES:  Texas and Utah and a small section of Southern California.

UNCERTAIN LEANING HOSTILE:  New Mexico

UNCERTAIN LEANING FRIENDLY:  Arizona

PERMISSIVE: California, Nevada and Colorado

 

At this point I am not completely sure just what all of these exercises are meant to accomplish but I have heard that the private property owners, at least in our West Texas area where headquarters and troop concentrations will be stationed have all been contacted and none of these people seem to be, at least at this point, not very concerned.

 

Also, one might think that Texas and New Mexico and Arizona in particular might not be the best three states to try some foolish crap.

 

So, until I hear something a bit more concrete I am not going to drag out my riot gear.

May 5th, 2015  MILLENNIALS / WRONG

 

 

Wednesday - May 6, 2015

 

Hello once again from the Association Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Islamaphobic Vast Right Wing Conspiratorial Conclusion Jumping Believers In Second Amendment Rights Of West Texas.

 

MILLENNIALS:

 

For a number of months now, we have been exposed to the Mainstream Media Boobs and Political Hacks from BOTH major parties telling us about trying to corral the favor of...... THE MILLENNIALS. Of course, many people do not relate to this term as it has been shoved down our throats by academia. SO, I began to try to find out a little information about "MILLENNIALS" and just exactly who these academics were speaking of.

 

When we hear the term MILLENNIAL on the news, they are generally speaking of the generation of Americans born between 1982 and 2000. NOW, here is where it gets interesting.

 

CHARACTERISTICS:

 

Narcissistic

Jump from job to job

Rewarded for minimal accomplishments (Trophy kids who are rewarded just for participating)

Sense of ENTITLEMENT

The "ME GENERATION"

Higher use of technology

Embrace "Politically PROGRESSIVE" views

Challenge Authority in; Home; School; Work

Do not take orders well

Send average of FIFTY (50) Texts per day

Take longer to leave parent's homes; Some return home after graduation from college

Highest number of "Facebook Friends (Average 250)

Twenty Nine Percent consider themselves religiously unaffiliated

Fifty Five (55) percent have posted a SELFIE to social media sites

Only NINETEEN (19) percent believe others can be trusted**

TWENTY (20) percent have at least one immigrant parent

 

**(Insofar as our present federal government, all branches, I would be in agreement with this 19%)

 

These folks are also referred to commonly as "GENERATION Y"

Those born immediately prior are known as "Generation X"

 

I guess I must be in about Generation M or somewhere in that vicinity since I don’t believe that I possess the great majority of those characteristics.... at least that I am aware.

 

BUT, these are the people whom evidently comprise the so called "Independent Voter" since this group of people seem to be the ones whom the professional politicians are attempting to get in their respective camps.

 

In reading several articles the MILLENIALS seem to favor PROTESTOR-FORMED GOVERNMENTS. And while I do not mind any group or individual not agreeing with the status-quo or every single choice made by government, I have noticed that some people seem to want to PROTEST every single thing that crosses their path. One of the articles said that the MILLENNIALS in their 20's no longer view themselves as ADULTS....... and for that matter, I do not consider many of them adults at least in their thinking and actions. There have even been reports of MILLENNIALS ... now get ready for this.... Bringing Their Parents to Job Interviews.

 

There are probably not enough hours in a day nor enough paper at my disposal to go into every single characteristic of the so called MILLENNIALS or Generation "Y" so I will end this discussion with this thought.

 

If this type of voter is the voter whom BOTH MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES ARE ROMANCING, then I fear our Great Country is nearing its end. Just look at everyday news stories and see if you cannot detect the direction in which our nation is headed. That is why I say that this next Presidential Election in 2016 is probably the most important in my lifetime. I have had enough of "Flower Children" and "Race Hustlers" running our country. HAVE YOU?

 

WRONG:

 

On Monday afternoon, May 5, 2015 I was flipping channels and got to the FOX News Channel just as the program switched to Baltimore, MD in the same area of the recent demonstrations and riots and arson and looting.

 

One of the FOX News reporters, who is usually pretty well in tune with the facts of his story (Mike Tobin) came on and excitedly told the viewing audience that he had just witnessed a Baltimore Police Officer shoot a suspect who was running from him. He did say that there was a "Six Shooter" on the ground beside the wounded suspect. He said that the suspect was hauled away in an ambulance and "Appeared to be in BAD SHAPE".

 

Then another FOX News Reporter, Leland Vittart, interviewed a young black female who said she had also witnessed the shooting of a "Black Boy". This EYEWITNESS said that this black boy was not doing anything but sitting on a porch talking with friends when a Baltimore Police Officer began to chase him AND during the chase; "SHOT THAT BOY IN THE BACK". She said she was only about 30' from the shooting and that the boy was "MURDERED" by the Officer. She went on to respond that the boy DID NOT HAVE A GUN AND THAT IF ONE WAS FOUND NEAR THE BODY, IT WAS PUT THERE BY THE COPS TO "COVER THEIR OWN A-S-S".

 

Of course a large crowd began to gather and other Officers arrived at the scene for crowd control and the video showed the crowd yelling at the police and also showed a handgun, which appeared to be a single action pistol with a long barrel lying on the sidewalk where the suspect had gone to the ground. THEN, prior to the program going back to the studio, a Police Spokesman told a reporter that the Officer HAD NOT FIRED HIS WEAPON AND THAT NO ONE HAD BEEN SHOT. And as it turned out, the suspect running from the Baltimore Police DID in fact have a handgun and during the chase when he went to the ground, he dropped the pistol and it went off but no one was hit. He was placed under arrest and sent to the hospital via ambulance to be checked over.

 

SO, apparently the FOX News reporter reported what HE THOUGHT HE SAW and in all fairness did apologize for jumping the gun on the story AND Shepard Smith also APOLOGIZED to the viewing audience for the initial report being PREMATURE.

 

No one interviewed the Black Female witness after that as it was evidently apparent that either she made up actually seeing what happened OR perhaps she might simply been LYIN' HER A-S-S OFF.

 

All I can say is "HANDS UP.... DON'T SHOOT"!

QUOTES:

 

"Among the many painful ironies in the current racial turmoil is that communities scattered across the country were disrupted by riots and looting because of the demonstrable lie that Michael Brown was shot in the back by a white policeman in Missouri -- but there was not nearly as much turmoil created by the demonstrable fact that a fleeing black man was shot dead by a white policeman in South Carolina...... Totally ignored was the fact that a black policeman in Alabama fatally shot an unarmed white teenager, and was cleared of any charges, at about the same time that a white policeman was cleared of charges in the fatal shooting of Michael Brown."........ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"That vision is nowhere more clearly expressed than in attempts to automatically depict whatever social problems exist in ghetto communities as being caused by the sins or negligence of whites, whether racism in genera or LEGACY OF SLAVERY in particular. Like most emotionally powerful visions, it is seldom, if ever, subjected to the test of evidence.".......... THOMAS SOWELL

MORE STUFF:

 

A couple of months back, Barack Hussein Obama made the statement that there was not a "SHRED" of corruption in his administration. I guess that I am going to have to agree with the world's most articulate and intelligent human on this one...... unless you want to consider Lois Lerner and the IRS; The Secret Service Scandal; The DEA Scandal; The TAX DOLLARS routinely spent by the Obama family on personal travel; Benghazi; The Eric Holder Justice Department, and these are just for starters. So I guess he must be right. There is NOT A SHRED of CORRUPTION....however their appears to be a TRUCKLOAD/BOATLOAD/BUSLOAD or any other large conglomerate of indicators of some serious corruption and ultra-serious incompetence.

 

Now, a couple of days back, former President Bill Clinton said that there was not a SHRED OF EVIDENCE to show that Hillary had done anything to pay back in favors for foreign donations to the CLINTON FOUNDATION.

 

How is it that these LYIN' MUTTS seem to use the same terminology? Perhaps neither the world's most intelligent and articulate human (Barack Hussein Obama) or the world's biggest liar (Bill Clinton) know the meaning of the word SHRED when used as a noun. SO, perhaps I had better inform them:

 

SHRED [n] - A narrow strip cut or torn off; a fragment; a speck; a trace; a scrap; a particle

 

Perhaps these two lyin' jerks better re-think their statements

----------------------------------

Just got through watching a really great old movie.... "THE UNFORGIVEN". This is not the 1990 Clint Eastwood movie, "Unforgiven", which was also a good movie. This was a 1960s movie with Burt Lancaster; Audrey Hepburn; Audie Murphy; John Saxon; Charles Bickford; Lillian Gish; Albert Salmi; Doug McClure; and last but certainly not least..... Joseph Wiseman. Joseph Wiseman is one of the great all time character actors. He has played good guys and bad guys. He has played Mexican Soldiers, Mafia Dons, and Asian criminals. Also I believe that Audrey Hepburn was at her most beautiful in these years. I had not seen this movie in about 10 years and it is a keeper.

----------------------

Isn't it odd that the present Attorney General of the United States, Loretta Lynch, felt impelled to visit Baltimore, MD to discuss the shortcomings of the Baltimore Police Department. Am I dreaming or did not Attorney General (at that time) Eric Holder felt duty bound to visit Ferguson, MO after the Michael Brown shooting? Then, of course the Justice Department under the leadership of Eric Holder took steps to control the Ferguson City Police Department. You don't suppose that present Attorney General Loretta Lynch with the guidance of the Incompetent Baltimore Mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and Race Pimp Al Sharpton will attempt to control another local Police Department..... do you?

 

Having the Federal Government in control of your State, County, or City law enforcement is the first step in a real POLICE STATE. Russia is a POLICE STATE. China is a POLICE STATE. North Korea is a POLICE STATE. Nazi Germany was a POLICE STATE. Pre WW II Italy was a POLICE STATE. Why? Because the NATIONAL CENTRAL GOVERNMENTS OF ALL THOSE COUNTRIES is/was in CONTROL of enforcing the laws NATIONWIDE.

 

THIS CRIMINAL ADMINISTRATION IS TAKING US IN THAT DIRECTION.

------------------------------

Does anyone else find it a bit odd that the Obama Administration and their spokespersons almost always caution us about not being too quick to judge whether or not an attack is or is not an act of TERRORISM? Remember the Islamist Terrorist Attack at Ft. Hood, Texas was for several years considered as WORKPLACE VIOLENCE by the Obama suspects.

April 29th, 2015   IDIOTS

 

 

Wednesday - April 29, 2015

 

Hello once again from the West Texas Headquarters of Jingoistic Xenophobic Handgun Owning SUV Driving Coal Burning Vast Right Wing Conspirators.

 

IDIOTS:

 

Where do I start?   OH!  I know!   How about Baltimore, Maryland Mayor STEPHANIE  RAWLINGS-BLAKE.  At he beginning of demonstrations over the death of Freddie Gray while in Baltimore Police custody here is a direct quote by Baltimore Mayor STEPHANIE  RAWLINGS-BLAKE:

 

"I've made it very clear that I work with the police and instructed them to do everything that they could to make sure that the protesters were able to exercise their right to free speech.  It's a very delicate balancing act, because, while we tried to make sure that they were protected from the cars and the other things that were going on, we  also  gave  those  who  wished  to  destroy  space  to  do  that  as  well.   And  we  worked  very  hard  to  keep  that  balance  and to  put  ourselves  in  the  best  position  to  deescalate,  and  that's  what  you  saw." 

 

Well,  sorry  Madam  Mayor.   Giving  space  to  THOSE  WHO  WISH  TO  DESTROY is not really  your  job AND  if  you think it is then you are not nearly as  smart  as  the  media  claims  you  are.   And from some of the  activities  that I observed on  several  news  shows,  it  appears  as if  the  some of  the  criminal  element  in Baltimore understood your ignorant statement as granting them permission  to DESTROY  and  LOOT  and BURN.   It also appeared, at least at the beginning that the command structure of the Baltimore Police  Department had inserted their  collective  heads up their collective  rear  ends  by  at least  appearing to  give in and retreat from the rock throwing,  vehicle  burning,  looting  criminals.

 

And your administration's attempts at DE-ESCALATION have fallen somewhat short.

 

BUT, in all fairness to Her Honor, the Mayor, after seeing some of these Protesters/Rioters interviewed by FOX News, it becomes fairly evident that neither the Mayor of Baltimore or anyone else for that matter would be able to communicate successfully with these single digit I.Q. IDIOT citizens.

 

AH, but then at the funeral of Freddie Gray, we had yet another ELECTED IDIOT in the person of ELIJAH CUMMINGS who is a U.S. Representative whose district is roughly half of the City of Baltimore.  And of course Cummings has absolutely no idea about how to solve any type of problem of any magnitude.

 

I heard one IDIOT Reporter and I can't remember which channel he was on once more try to make this whole series of criminal acts a BLACK/WHITE issue.  OK.  I'm only going to say this once:

 

POSITION                              RACE

 

Baltimore Mayor..............  Black Female

Baltimore Police

Commissioner..................  Black Male

Head of Baltimore

City Council......................  Black Male

Baltimore City Council ......  Black Officials (9)

Patrol Commander...........  Black Male

Congressman ...................  Black Male (Elijah Cummings)

General In Charge of

Maryland National

Guard...............................  Black Female

Maryland Senate

Majority Leader.................  Black Female

Baltimore Police

Department ...................... Majority Black Officers

 

Yep, it looks like Ol' Whitey is oppressing the Black Majority in Baltimore.

 

And I heard one reporter from FOX News yesterday morning say that he had asked some of the Baltimore Police Officers why they were holding back and allowing looting of neighborhood business and burning of buildings and automobiles.   The reply he got was exactly what I expected.  And that was:   "ASK THE MAYOR."

 

There is absolutely not doubt in my mind that the Baltimore Police Department was prohibited from taking positive action by the total ineffective leadership of the Police Department AND the Mayor of Baltimore.

 

Let me also point out that the death of Freddie Gray was NOT the real cause of the rioting and looting and burning by out of control criminals.  I know that many of the elected officials and so called Black Leaders  claim that Gray's death was the reason for the criminal acts but that is pure horse crap.

 

Neither I nor any of the people in Baltimore know what caused the injury which resulted in Gray's death.  I heard one Black so called Minister say that Gray was MURDERED by Baltimore Police.  As a general rule, Murder requires some degree of INTENT.  If Gray's death was the result of Police Misconduct then I feel sure that the guilty parties will be charged.  If his injury was the result of Negligence then there also could be some charges forthcoming.  BUT, until the investigation/investigations are completed, any opinions are pure speculation.  Also, I find it somewhat strange that the race of the arresting Officers has not been put forth as usual.  Nor have we been bombarded by what a wonderful citizen Gray was.... one must wonder if perhaps Mr. Gray was not a model citizen.  Of course regardless of his criminal record if he had one the cause of his death must be investigated and made public.

 

I am with Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke in the fact that Uniform Police Officers retreating from rock throwing youths is not how things should have proceeded. Also, I have been on the receiving end of being struck in the head by thrown bricks on two occasions and a full bottle of Jim Beam bourbon on one occasion.  I have had a fracture of the scapula  (for those of you in San Francisco, that is the shoulder blade)  from being hit with a metal disc and cracked ribs from a thrown bottle of wine.  The Jim Beam bottle did not break but the wine bottle did break when it hit my ribs.  My point being that rocks and bottles can cause some serious injury as well as possibly cause death in some instances.

 

THEN on Monday evening I was listening to FOX News when I heard that noted expert Shepard Smith make a statement that around the year 2000, "Stop and Frisk" appeared.   WELL, let me be among the first to correct "Shep" on his keen observation.

 

STOP and FRISK was the result of an arrest made on October 31, 1963 in Cleveland, Ohio.  Without going into the case in depth, a Cleveland Police Officer  spotted an individual acting suspiciously and WITH  NO  PROBABLE  CAUSE to arrest but acted upon REASONABLE SUSPICION the Officer conducted a PAT-DOWN of the suspect and recovered a handgun.  The infamous "Stop and Frisk" is an outside the clothing "Pat Down" for weapons.

 

This case was appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in TERRY vs OHIO, and the Supreme Court in 1968 UPHELD the right to conduct a Pat-Down of a suspect for the protection of the Officer.  SO, when you hear that in N.Y. City, the Stop and Frisk has been ruled Unconstitutional, then even someone as smart as Bill O'Reilly is INCORRECT!  A Department Administrator or a Police Chief or as is evidently the case in New York City the IDIOT MAYOR is preventing the NYPD Officers from doing a Pat-Down Stop and Frisk.  BUT IT IS NOT UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

 

I guess what I am trying to say is that Shepard Smith is also an IDIOT as  is the N.Y. City Mayor as is the Baltimore Mayor as are the great majority of our elected Senators and Representatives and of course as are ALL of the usual suspects of The Obama Administration.

Now I am not saying that these people I have been bashing are STUPID.  Because most of them are not.  Most of them have a so called advanced education. BUT an accumulation of College Hours  does not necessarily mean you are not an IDIOT.  Just look at the Federal Government at our ELECTED  IDIOTS.  And keep this in mind;

ELECTED  IDIOTS  have a PROPENSITY for APPOINTING  IDIOTS  IN  KEY  POSITIONS.

 

I believe it was Socrates who said that TRUE  EDUCATION  IS  CLOSE  OBSERVATION  OF  THE  WORLD  AROUND  YOU.

"Many Americans who say that we should learn from other people, especially Europeans, mean that we should imitate what they did.  That may make those who talk this way feel superior to other Americans.  But let us never forget that the most disastrous ideologies of the 20th century -- Communism,  Fascism, and Nazism -- all originated in Europe.  So did both World Wars."............

MORE STUFF:

 

Well, once again the Republican led Senate managed to cave in and some Republicans voted with the Democrats to pass Obama's appointment of Loretta Lynch as Attorney General.  And for those of you residing in the Freedom Loving Worker's Province of Austin, Loretta Lynch DID  NOT  release the record of COAL  MINER'S  DAUGHTER.

Actually I would rather see Loretta Lynn as Attorney General than this Obama flunky.

--------------------------------

AH, but in typical Liberal/Progressive/Democrat/Socialist fashion, I heard several of the members of the Baltimore City government speak about the "Systemic Root Causes" and of course in taking a page out of the MARIE HARF  IDIOT'S  GUIDE  TO  ROOT  CAUSES, they came up with "Poverty" and "Lack of jobs".  Hmmm.  Wonder just whom the Baltimore city government IDIOTS will blame for that?

 

And of course many of the so called experts from Baltimore are giving us the old,  "They are just venting their anger over poverty" song and dance.

---------------------------

I did receive one communication which said that the deceased Freddie Gray had a rather lengthy arrest  record which included numerous drug charges (both possession AND distribution) as well as a burglary and an assault charge.  Of course this in and of itself does not mean that his death was permissible but please do not try to paint him as another "Little Trayvon Martin"

----------------

HEY!  I have an idea!  How about  putting the touch on THE  CLINTON  FOUNDATION to help rebuild all of the businesses destroyed in the Baltimore riots?  After all, I read where 6% of the funds received by this worthy foundation actually went to charitable causes.  Hmmm,  wonder where the remainder of the money goes?  You don't suppose that the Clintons are pocketing some of the cash,  do you?

----------------------

Did anyone other than me for a few moments get the feeling that we were watching rock throwing Palestinian youths throwing rocks and charging armed Israeli Soldiers?  Of course I have always viewed the Palestinians as being rather IDIOTIC by bringing rocks to a gun fight.

April 22nd, 2015  PHONY / CHANGE

 

Wednesday - April 22, 2015

 

Greetings from the Home Corporate Offices For Jingoistic Conspiratorial Man Made Climate Change Deniers Of West Texas.

 

PHONY:

 

Let us first look at the meaning of the word.

PHONY - not genuine; false; a person who is not genuine; one who exhibits false traits; something which is not genuine; fraud; fake

 

OK. Now that we all have a pretty good idea of the meaning of the word PHONY, who would be one of the first people whom you would think of that this term describes very accurately.

 

I nominate HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON. Just look at the history of the actions of this woman. Even back when she was no more than the First Lady (and I am really stretching it to call her a lady) and her phony ass husband was President of the United States.

But that was merely a preview of things to come. The more she was in the public view the bigger PHONY she became. Let me review just a few things which confirm my suspicions.

 

Do you remember the phony sympathy she showed when they brought home the bodies of the Americans MURDERED in Benghazi? Do you remember how she along with Obama got up before the families and friends of these dead Americans and stuck with the story that the reasons for the attacks on these Americans was caused by a video. And of course this turned out to be a big like put forth by the State Department and the White House.

 

Do you remember her telling a reporter that when Bill left office that they were DEAD BROKE? And of course there was her story about coming under sniper fire on a visit to a foreign country which turned out to be FALSE.

 

BUT last week she tried to pull the wool over the eyes of the people once again on her alleged ORDINARY PERSON tour of the Midwest. The first thing I noticed when she and her band of merry men were driving around in a van which everyone was calling the "Scooby Van". She was doing everything, apparently, to allegedly avoid contact with the media but that was also not true. Then she chose a coffee shop in LeCLaire, Iowa to just "Pop In" and rub shoulders with some ORDINARY PEOPLE. Of course the TV people whom she was allegedly trying so hard to avoid managed to video Hillary's CHANCE MEETING with THREE ORDINARY IOWANS.

When I first saw this I made the statement that this whole thing was a set up and that it WAS NOT A CHANCE MEETING. Then I read where the identity of these "THREE ORDINARY IOWANS" turned out to be:

 

Austin Bird ---- a former Clinton campaign intern

Carter Bell ----- University of Iowa College Democrats President 

Sara Sedlacek - Planned Parenthood of the Heartland staffer

 

And the CHANCE MEETING was arranged by Troy Price who is a campaign staffer for Hillary Clinton

 

Damn near everything this woman does and says is either a complete lie or set up by some of her staff.

 

PHONY is an excellent description of the character of this woman.

 

If the Republican Party allows the mainstream news media or the RNC and professional politicians like John McCain and Lindsey Graham or complete Hacks like Karl Rove to choose the Republican candidate for President in 2016 then we will probably be looking at Hillary Rodham Clinton as our next President.

 

CHANGE:

 

With all the turmoil the world is in at present and the weakness being shown by the entire Obama Administration combined with a U.S. Senate and House of Representatives looking pretty weak, I read an article in the (Sub) Standard Times which convinced me that our country is in the hands of complete fools. The article had the headline: PUT A WOMAN ON $20 BILL WHILE WE STILL CAN.

 

With the miserable shape the world is in at present, whose picture is on the $20 bill, or for that matter on ANY currency or coin of the United States Of America is pretty insignificant in the whole scheme of things. Here is the reasoning behind this proposed change:

 

Andrew Jackson was the seventh President of the United States. He was a fierce opponent of the central banking system and favored gold and silver coin over paper currency. The article went on to say that Martha Washington's portrait appeared on a $1 silver certificate in 1886 and 1891. Then they also noted that Susan B. Anthony and Indian guide Sacagawea likenesses have appeared on the $1 coins which were almost as popular as a root canal.

 

Here are some of the suggestions for the female replacement for Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill.

 

Eleanor Roosevelt - "Trailblazing First Lady"

Harriet Tubman - "Abolitionist"

Rosa Parks - "Civil Rights Icon"

"Wilma Mankiller" - " Cherokee Leader and the first woman elected chief of a native nation in modern times"

 

I am sure that all of these ladies have made some contribution to America but this move looks like CHANGE FOR THE SAKE OF CHANGE, which I think is utter stupidity.

I know I have seen photos of Eleanor Roosevelt, Harriet Tubman, and Rosa Parks and have read articles regarding their contributions and I believe that these three women have been submitted for purely POLITICAL CORRECT reasons. I have also seen a few photos of Wilma Mankiller and read a bit about her reign as the leader of the Cherokee Nation and evidently did not have smooth going during her leadership. Many other branches of the Cherokee Nation were not completely satisfied with her leadership.

 

One of the photos I saw of Wilma Mankiller would make a "Freight Train Take A Dirt Road" and for that matter a photo of Eleanor Roosevelt could scare small children and pets.

But all of this is pure POLITICAL CORRECT HORSE MANURE.

I do have one small suggestion which might satisfy all groups who view themselves as victims and could satisfy political correct dummies everywhere. Here is my idea:

 

Print a NEW DENOMINATION of U.S. Currency... Issue a $3 dollar bill and put the likeness of Janet Napolitano on its face. That should please everyone.

OH! I must have forgotten! HAPPY EARTH DAY TO YOU ALL! Actually, I place Earth Day on about the same level as KWANZAA. But for sure all the college students are huge Earth Day supporters. I was watching an interview with some of these brain dead children this week and they had as little grasp of reality as any group I have seen in a while. They were all in favor of Solar Energy and I just wondered how many of those people even realize about the billions of tax dollars thrown away by SOLYNDRA a few years back...... you remember this was right before SOLYNDRA shut down.

 

One of these brain surgeons was asked what she did to celebrate Earth Day and she replied that she "Car Pooled". Probably in an electric car no doubt. Anyway, Earth Day is just another bogus day dreamed up in 1970 by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson from Wisconsin. And according to several articles it was brought on by an oil spill back in those years.

------------------------

I know a lot of people think that Dr. Ben Carson is the answer to our problems insofar as a possible Republican Candidate for President. The first time I began to really listen to what Dr. Carson was saying, his views on the Second Amendment were light years away from mine. Since then he has allegedly changed his views.

Then last week I saw a program where Dr. Carson was appearing at some function with Al Sharpton and in an interview, Dr. Carson said that he thought that he and Al Sharpton wanted the same thing but perhaps had different was to get there.
I decided right then that I could not ever support Dr. Ben Carson. ANYONE who desires the same end results as Al Sharpton is either:

 

1) Very easily led and apparently very confused as to what Sharpton's goals actually are

2) Or is not nearly as intelligent as purported

3) Or has been misleading us all along

This along with Dr. Carson's really weak knowledge on foreign affairs will never allow me to cast any support to him. While I think he is more than likely an honest and very smart man, in certain areas, I do not believe he is right as the leader of our country.

------------------------

Watched an old movie from 1952 starring Robert Taylor. "Above and Beyond" which was the story of Col. Paul W. Tibbets Jr. and the dropping of the FIRST ATOMIC BOMB on Hiroshima in 1945. I know that Hollywood had to doctor up the story and add fictional characters but it was still an interesting movie with some really good combat film included. As I was watching this movie I realized that this movie was made just 7 years after the event and many people who were actually involved were probably still living. I also had to think of the guts it took for President Truman and for Col. Tibbets and his crew to authorize and complete this mission. General Paul W. Tibbets Jr. passed away in 2007 and I did see a few interviews with him over the years and really thought of him as a very special hero from WW II.

 

As a general rule I cannot stand remakes of old movies but one exception to that is the old movie "Monte Walsh" which was first made in 1970 with Lee Marvin in the starring role and the re-make was made in 2003 and had Tom Selleck in the lead role. The second movie had a few small differences but generally followed the story told in the first movie. Of course I pretty much liked everything Lee Marvin made and have pretty much liked all of the movies made by Tom Selleck. But "Monte Walsh" were two of my favorites.

April 15th, 2015  ROOT / MATTERS

 

Wednesday - April 15, 2015

 

Hello once again from the Jingoistic Xenophobic Second Amendment Supporting Vast Right Wing Conspirators Of West Texas.

 

ROOT:

 

A few weeks back we all heard that political mastermind Marie Harf say: "We cannot kill our way out of this war. W need in the medium and longer term to go after the ROOT CAUSES that lead these people to join these groups, whether it is lack of opportunity for jobs."

 

For years I have been listening to academia spout off platitudes from the mouths of people, most of whom have never been far enough away from a classroom to realize that there is a real world with real people with real problems with real likes with real dislikes with no concept of real everyday problems.

 

I have listened to these people come up with the notion that the ROOT CAUSE of crime and criminal behavior is........... POVERTY and LACK OF JOBS. During this same time period I also attended approximately 4,000 hours in training classes on just about every single phase of criminal behavior, as well as instructed college classes in criminal justice areas for 17 years. With that being said, one of the main things I learned in these classes and from scores of college textbooks that a great deal of the crime committed in our country is committed by persons with a psychopathic personality disorder. It has been more recently that the academic elites have decided to pass on POVERTY as the primary ROOT CAUSE of criminal behavior.

 

OK. If that is the official answer then please answer this question for me. Why do POLITICIANS commit CRIMINAL ACTS? Is it due to POVERTY and LACK OF JOBS? I think not. In my life I have known lots of folks who have committed criminal acts which range from Murder down to Shoplifting. Some of the people committed these crimes because they were hungry or were trying to provide for their families.... BUT the great majority of the criminals I have known were simply trying to BEAT THE SYSTEM.

I have known people with damn near brilliant minds who actually owned their own businesses and were making good money in that business BUT simply enjoyed beating the system by showing that they could get away with criminal acts. I am sure that POVERTY or LACK OF INCOME is the cause of any number of crimes BUT according to the Academic Elites and Liberals/Socialists everywhere, this is the ROOT CAUSE OF ALL CRIME. And of course since they believe that POVERTY and LACK OF JOBS is the main cause then it only stands to reason that the stupid masses MUST DEPEND UPON THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO SOLVE ALL OF THEIR PROBLEMS.

 

In short, all Progressives/Democrats/Socialists want us all to bow down to an all seeing Federal Government. BUT when you really take a close look at their answer to our problems and see that we end up with an Incompetent Administration such as the one we have now and realize that this type of Incompetent Administration employs Incompetent Idiots like Marie Harf then it shouldn't take someone with average intelligence and just a hint of common sense to say, NO! I am sure that I am not the only person in America who have completely lost all confidence in these people.

 

SO, let me offer Marie Harf and the rest of the Obama Merry Men the following opinion insofar as the ROOT CAUSE of ISIS/ISIL and other Militant Muslim groups who fall into the category of RADICAL SHARIA LAW SUPPORTING MUSLIM TERRORISTS. They have an unrelenting HATE for:

 

1) All Christians

2) All Jews

3) All Muslims who do not support Sharia Law

4) All people who do not go along with their ideas

5) The United States

6) Israel

7) Any country who supports the U.S. or Israel

 

An inebriated monkey would be preferable and more believable than Marie Harf and the rest of the spokespersons for the Obama Administration.

 

TEMPER:

 

Let me preface these comments by reminding everyone that I am no huge fan of Senator Rand Paul. With that being said, Rand Paul came under a great deal of criticism last week when every news program ran a clip of Rand Paul snapping back at a female TV interviewer. I did see a few people who agreed with me that sitting calmly while some reporter gets up in your face with pretty idiotic questions to which there is no simple answer, is NOT what you necessarily want in a candidate. Even Megyn Kelly and a couple of other FOX News contributors gave their opinions that Rand Paul had LOST HIS TEMPER with that reporter.

Let me briefly explain to the media and Liberals/Progressives/Socialists/Marxists EVERYWHERE the difference in coming back with a sharp reply AND LOSING ONE'S TEMPER. I have done both on any number of occasions and have seen others do both on a large number of occasions.
When I raise my voice and perhaps have a frown on my face when I answer someone with a pretty aggressive retort, I am merely upset and am tired of being a target.

When under the same circumstances I seize the other person by the throat and shake them until their eyes bug out, all the while using extremely uncomplimentary language, that is an example of someone losing his/her temper.

Actually Rand Paul snapping back at this squack sort of brought him up a notch or two in my eyes.

 

One must seriously wonder what these present day Twinkies would do if back in the 1940's they had asked President Harry Truman a stupid question?

 

I have a feeling that they would NOT like his reply. AND I never saw President Truman really lose his temper. I have seen him insulted by the crass stupidity of certain people but I don't know that I ever saw him LOSE HIS TEMPER.

 

The truth of the matter really is that the Candy Ass media have led a very sheltered life and have never really observed someone lose his/her temper.

"Meanwhile, attempts to shut down people whose free speech interferes with other people's political agendas go on, with remarkably little notice, much less outrage.

* Everyone please take note of these two quotes by one of our Founding Fathers and tell me that he was not seeing far into the future and recognizing problems which have us all under the thumb of ONE DECIDING VOTE in most instances. Forget the old saying that we are controlled by 535 people. (For those of you currently residing in the People's Republic of San Francisco, that is the total number of Representatives and Senators in our Congress) We are actually controlled in most instances by the ONE DECIDING VOTE of a Justice of the United States Supreme Court.

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

I don't know about the rest of you good people but I was very happy last Sunday to see the Masters Golf Tournament won by a young man who showed a whole lot of class. Now I have not personally played a round of golf since about 1959. But I do try to follow the major tournaments and keep up with which golfers are doing well and which ones are not doing so hot.

 

The winner of the 2015 Masters, of course, was a young 21 year old Texan, Jordan Spieth. To me, it was very refreshing to see a young man who displayed class and sportsmanship before, during, and after the Masters.

I am getting so sick of all the trash talking which is going on in most major sports and it appears that golf is still holding on to the idea of good behavior being not only acceptable but desired.

My congratulations go out to young Jordan Spieth along with my sincere appreciation for his actions and attitude not only toward the game but to his opponents, his staff, his family and his fans.

-------------------------------

Earlier in the week I read an article in the (Sub) Standard Times headlined: HOMICIDES, GANG VIOLENCE GROWING. For a change it was not about one of our American cities but rather the Central American country of EL SALVADOR. Now here is a small country with a 2015 population of approximately 6.3 million people with a current homicide rate of about 15 murders per day. There were 481 homicides recorded in the month of March. The article stated that El Salvador was on pace to surpass Honduras as the deadliest peacetime country IN THE WORLD. Let's see now...... Honduras..... El Salvador.... Central America... Isn't Central America the place where a great majority of ILLEGAL ALIENS particularly children are illegally entering our country? Do we not have laws which are meant to PREVENT this type of activity? OH, that's right, Barack Hussein Obama and his Justice Department have decided to NOT ENFORCE OUR EXISTING IMMIGRATION LAWS. Oh, but I forgot. According to a bunch of the Obama Clowns and many Democrat/Progressive/Socialist Senators and Representatives have assured us that we are getting the "Brightest and Best" of the populations of these Central American countries.

------------------------------

Let me mention one item about all these folks who have announced their intentions to be candidates for the Office of President of the United States. So far three Republicans have announced: Ted Cruz; Rand Paul; and Marco Rubio. AND of course on the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist side we have Hillary Clinton. Most of these announcements have been pretty tame but the "New Hillary Image" is a little tough to take. After her announcement she did a photo op at some Burrito Restaurant and while I don't know for sure, but I would be willing to bet that "BURRITOS" are not one of the staples in Hillary's diet. As a matter of fact, I should not be at all surprised if that were not the first Burrito that had ever crossed Hillary's lips.

And I don't know this for a fact but I heard that after she left the Burrito shop and no one was watching her that she was joined by a troop of flying monkeys and she was heard to say, "I'll get you my pretty.... and your little dog too."

April 8th, 2015   STOP IT / WHY

 

 

Wednesday - April 8, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the West Texas Association Of Jingoistic Fossil Fuel Burning Xenophobic Second Amendment Believing Vast Right Wing Conspiratorial Climate Change Deniers"............... Or as that goofy squack Joy Behar would pronounce it "Climate Change DENIYAH". Anything that pisses off Joy and Whoopi makes me pretty happy.

 

STOP IT:

 

Last Monday evening I got set to watch the men's NCAA Basketball Championship game. I turned on the television just prior to the NATIONAL ANTHEM. I was absolutely delighted when a band played our National Anthem like it should have been played. BUT what upset me and shall continue to do so is the actions and body language of the players during the National Anthem.

 

I was taught at a very early age in our elementary school in Houston how people were expected to act during both the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. I don't know exactly when it became stylish to look down at the ground of talk or chew gum or any other activity other than to stand straight and look directly at our flag and remove a cap if you were wearing one.. I was taught to do this during both the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem. I later was taught that if in uniform it was expected to face the flag and salute. I was also taught that during the Pledge of Allegiance to hold my right hand over my heart. I was taught that this was also permissible during our National Anthem.

 

I did not notice all of the players in last Monday night's game other than toward the end of the National Anthem one of the Duke players was staring straight down at the floor. All I could think of, when I saw that was in the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City after Americans Tommie Smith and John Carlos were accepting their medals (Tommie Smith won the gold and John Carlos won the bronze) for the 200 meter dash and of course our National Anthem was played and two American flags were raised. Instead of standing and looking at our flag, both Smith and Carlos looked down at the ground and raised their fists in the "Black Power" salute. To say that these two mutts showed their asses would be a mild understatement. Both were sent home and several articles reported that they were both stripped of their medals but another article reported that Smith said that they were not. I thought that what they did was completely out of place and unacceptable.

I do not know the reason for the Duke player to be looking toward the ground but it did not look good to me. I remember watching an interview with former NFL Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown who said that he always respected our National Anthem and that it was a constant reminder that our country allowed him to make a good living playing a game he loved.

But it appears to me as if many professional athletes and college athletes today believe they are doing us a favor to accept their exorbitant salaries and allow us to view them being paid extremely well for playing a game. SO to this disrespect of our flag and our National Anthem... along with a bunch of other stupid acts I say........ STOP IT!!!!

 

Professional sports have pretty much lost me and apparently the colleges are rapidly approaching the same level of respect .... which in my eyes is LOW.

 

WHY:

 

An article in the (Sub) Standard Times caught my eye this morning. The title of the article was, "SANCTUARY CITIES' BAN CLEARS HURDLE". This article dealt with a Texas State Senate Bill 185 from a Republican State Senator from Lubbock. The gist of this Senate Bill according to the article is that it would: PROHIBIT CITIES FROM DISCOURAGING LAW ENFORCEMENT TO NOT ENFORCE IMMIGRATION LAWS. My question is this: WHY DO YOU NEED A SPECIFIC LAW TO HAVE CITIES, COUNTIES, STATES AND LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES DO WHAT THEY ARE ALREADY SUPPOSED TO BE DOING????

 

I guess that if this is the case then we need a separate law which will prohibit Cities; Counties; States and Law Enforcement from not enforcement all existing laws which have already been passed. This is absolutely the most ridiculous waste of time I have ever seen. I would expect something like this from our Congressional and DOJ idiots. I am not sure exactly when all the "SANCTUARY CITY" crap started but I do believe the first I heard was in California. I could be mistaken on that but with fools like Jerry Brown running the show, you never know.

 

Another question I have is this; We have known for weeks if not months pretty much who from the Republican Party was going to make a run as the Republican Presidential Candidate for 2016. Ted Cruz was the first to announce and he kept his fairly short and sweet. Then it was a big race to see who would follow. We were told days in advance that Rand Paul would be the next to announce and knew days ahead of time when he was expected to do this but the media once again made a big to do about that. God only knows who will be the next Republican to announce BUT last evening I watched a news show in which JOHN MC CAIN announced that he was going to seek another term as one of the Senators from Arizona. He said that there was a lot more that needed to be done..... I guess he hasn't screwed the State of Arizona around quite enough yet and needs another SIX YEARS to get the job done. BUT, he did also say that he was supporting LINDSEY GRAHAM.... who has not announced yet... but rest assured I will be awaiting that announcement with great anticipation.

 

Then, I suppose we will all be on the edge of our seats until Jeb Bush announces. Then who is next? Happy, Sneezy, or Dopey?

MORE STUFF:

 

This week I read of a couple of deaths of people for whom I had a great deal of respect. The first was former NFL Quarterback, Eddie LeBaron. My first exposure to Eddie LeBaron was in the early 50s when he was the quarterback for the Washington Redskins.... yeah that's right Redskins. Of course the first thing you had to notice about him was his size. He was only 5'7" weighing under 170 pounds and was absolutely the smallest player on the field. And keep in mind this was prior to all of the protective rules and equipment of today. He was a great passer and an exceptional ball handler. Later on, in 1960, he became the FIRST Quarterback for the expansion Dallas Cowboys. Of course this was in the years when Dallas wasn't very good and he took quite a beating. But he was always a competitor and showed lots of courage on the field.

Then I read a little about him and my opinion of him rose even higher. He was an All American player who played both ways at the College of the Pacific as well has handling the duties as their punter. Prior to going to the NFL, LeBaron joined the U.S. Marine Corps and served in Korea where he was wounded twice and awarded a Bronze Star.

 

While playing for the Redskins he attended Law School at George Washington University in the off seasons and earned a law degree in 1959. He retired after the 1959 season to work full time as an attorney in Texas. When the Cowboys were awarded an NFL expansion franchise, they talked him out of retirement and he came back into football as their first quarterback.

 

In 11 NFL seasons, LeBaron passed for 13,399 yards and 104 touchdowns. He was chosen for the Pro Bowl four times and is in the College Football Hall of Fame and as a senior at College of the Pacific in 1949 set an NCAA single-season record of 575 points.

 

Eddie LeBaron died at age 85 and was a class act.

----------------------------------

The other death I read about was of long time comedian Stan Freberg. I remember first hearing Stan Freberg on the radio in the early 50s. He is known as "The father of the funny commercial". He also made comedy records lampooning Elvis, Rock and Roll and damn near everything else which was popular at the time. There were man old commercials that he and his staff wrote and provided the voices for the animated commercials

 

I have, and listen to, a bunch of his old comedy stuff which later came out on CD. It is still funny to me.... especially when compared to today's so called comedians. I'm sorry but Freberg was funny as was Jonathan Winters, Tim Conway, Bob Newhart, and a bunch of the old ones. Today's so called comedians are simply NOT FUNNY. I think I will listen to some Freberg this evening.

----------------------------------

Also, just for the record..... I realize that climate actually does change. That is climate's job.... to change. It can change for the good or for the bad. We have had an extremely cold Winter and Spring and finally it is beginning to warm up.

What I will deny, however, is that CLIMATE CHANGE is caused by people AND I further believe that it CANNOT BE CONTROLLED BY PEOPLE. And I further declare that it damn sure can't be changed or controlled by the federal government.

April 1st, 2015  TEMPLATE / CONTROL

 

 

Wednesday - April 1, 2015

 

Greetings once more from The Association Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Draconian Supporters Of The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

 

TEMPLATE:

 

TEMPLATE - A pattern for making an EXACT COPY

 

The Obama administration and its spokespersons have been telling us that the countries of YEMEN and SOMALIA are TEMPLATES on how to handle terrorism. Really? If that is the case then the U.S./Mexican Border is a TEMPLATE on how to completely stop illegal aliens from entering the country.

Oh, I suppose if we overlook the facts that the U.S. supported government of Yemen has FLED THE COUNTRY and Rebels are in charge of most of the country which is being bombed on a daily basis by other Arab countries..... and of course if we just overlook the Somali Pirates and the utter chaos in that country over the past 25 or so years, that we might view both of these miserably inept countries as TEMPLATES on how to handle terrorism.

 

Of course, I am sure that none of us have the laser like focus on international matters as do Marie Harf and Jen Psaki. And of course we can rest easy knowing that John Kerry and some other really strange looking people are negotiating the "Nuclear Agreement" with Iran...... you know..... the same Iran whose leader agrees with "Death To America".

 

Actually, the only TEMPLATE I can spot regarding the Obama administration is that Barack Hussein Obama and his band of usual suspects are a TEMPLATE on how to destroy a Democratic Republic with a Constitutionally mandated government and turn it into a third world Socialist Banana Republic who are despised by most of the free world.

 

CONTROL:

 

It is a damn shame that you cannot watch or listen to or read the news today without the real story being how some government agency or some branch of the media is attempting to control the American people. And while they might disguise it as something else, it is still all about control. Of course one of the main areas in which the federal government in particular with the assistance of the mainstream media is trying to gain control over our Second Amendment Rights.

 

I am sorry to say that our First Amendment Rights have already been taken over and while many branches of the federal government and many organizations all claim to want to protect our First Amendment Rights, in reality what they really mean is they want to CONTROL our First Amendment Rights in the area of Free Speech and Freedom of Religion.  A prime example of this are the two State Laws recently sent to the Governors of Indiana and Arkansas. Both of these proposed state statutes have to do with people being able to not be forced into some act which would, in the individual's mind, infringe upon their religious freedoms. And it is my understanding that both of these proposed state statutes are virtually word for word the same as a federal statute which was signed into law by then President Bill Clinton.

 

AH, but Bill Clinton was a Liberal Democrat/Progressive/Socialist and the media and special interest groups had no problem with that law. BUT with the States of Indiana and Arkansas being under the influence of two Republican Governors, now we have people who are just screaming to be insulted raising all kinds of hell about these two laws. AND, it appears as if both Republican Governors, rather than do what is right have decided that both of these proposed laws should be "TWEAKED" in order to appease the Socialist Media and Special Interest Groups. Now I don't know any real day to day information on the Republican Governors of Arkansas (Asa Hutchinson) and Indiana (Mike Pence) but any respect I might have had for either of them has "headed South". While they both originally supported the legislation to protect First Amendment Freedom of Religion, when the pressure started to appear..... their courage started to DISAPPEAR. Apparently handing CONTROL of their legislative process over to the Mainstream Media and Special Interest Groups does not bother either of these two governors.

 

AND please take a moment to just look at the various Bureaus and Boards under the control of Barack Hussein Obama and tell me that these people are not after total control of our lives from birth to death. The Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Education have for years been slowly but surely taking over control of our public education system and of course all of our health related issues. Local School Boards are gradually losing control over their curriculum as it is being methodically taken over by the federal government or as "George Kingfish Stevens" would have said, "DO DE NAME COMMON CORE AND OBAMACARE RING A BELL?"

 

Years ago when I first read The George Orwell Books 1984 and ANIMAL FARM and Aldous Huxley's book BRAVE NEW WORLD and of course the Ray Bradbury novel FAHRENHEIT 451, I read them as science fiction without a thought that I would live to see the day when our wonderful country would be headed in exactly the directions described in these books.

Whether you want to believe it or not, the THOUGHT POLICE ARE HERE. Just take a look at a bunch of this Hate Crime legislation. If an individual intentionally commits murder, it is of scarce little value to consider race as an element of the crime or that if the victim happens to be a member of a minority group that he/she is more dead than if he/she were a member of a majority race. MURDER IS WRONG REGARDLESS OF THE RACE OF THE OFFENDER OR THE VICTIM.  CAPITAL MURDER IS A MURDER COMMITTED WITH MALICE AND PRE-MEDITATION OR OTHER SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES BUT NOT RACE. 

 

I am fearful that if a CONSERVATIVE is not elected in 2016 that our country as we have come to know it is at an end. Actually it appears that this self-centered, narcissistic, Socialist group who presently run Washington, D.C. cannot be defined as purely Democrat.  The Establishment Republicans are just as bad and just as selfish as those who are currently in power. So I will never be swayed by the likes of KARL ROVE or JOHN MC CAIN or any other so called MODERATE who value COMPROMISE over what is RIGHT. I am sorry but there are some things which can be negotiated and where compromise is OK, BUT NOT ON EVERY ISSUE.

When I hear John McCain speak on what a GREAT FRIEND Ted Kennedy (FAT TEDDY) was and how much he misses him, I have an uncontrollable urge to throw up.

 

Conservatives.... WAKE UP! Do not let these Washington Professional Politicians choose our next candidate. I HAVE NO WISH TO BE CONTROLLED BY EITHER A LIBERAL DEMOCRAT OR A LIBERAL REPUBLICAN.

QUOTES:

 

"Liberal professors have trashed the liberal arts, by converting so many liberal arts courses into indoctrination centers for left-wing causes and fads, instead of courses where students learn how to weigh conflicting views of the world for themselves. Now a professor of English, one of the most fad-ridden of the liberal arts today, blames conservative critics for the low esteem in which liberal arts are held."...... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The Federalist is a classic written by three of the men who were among those who wrote the Constitution of the United States. It is a book of profound thoughts, written in plain English, at a level aimed at the ordinary citizen..... It might even be called The Constitution for Dummies. There are several Supreme Court Justices who could benefit from reading it."............ THOMAS SOWELL

 

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."... GEORGE ORWELL

 

"In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act."............. GEORGE ORWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

I watched a program yesterday on Earl Campbell's celebration of his 60th birthday. Of course, Earl Campbell was a Texas High School football star; an All American running back with the University of Texas and won the Heisman Trophy in his senior year; Earl was also an All-Pro running back with the Houston Oilers and is a member of the NFL Hall of Fame.  After his retirement from the NFL, Earl was stricken with a spinal disease which had been with him probably since birth but had not been a major issue until he went down while painting a fence. He has had numerous surgeries and is able to walk although very slowly. While watching this program, of course they showed film clips of some of his runs in both college and the NFL. I do not think I have ever seen a tougher runner than Earl Campbell. He is one of those who could have played during any era. And he seems like a really good person which is even more important.

---------------------------------

I saw an article in the (Sub) Standard Times in a section called PEOPLE PLUS. Of course I didn't immediately recognize any of the people in the article but the primary news was regarding Jon Stewart's replacement on "The Daily Show", which I have never watched in its entirety.  As a matter of fact I don't think I have ever intentionally watched a segment any longer than 5 minutes. I do not think Jon Stewart was funny and the people who make the decision regarding Stewart's replacement have announced that his replacement will be a black comedian named Trevor Noah. Noah is from South Africa and I did hear an audio of him making a statement after the Ferguson, MO fiasco that he feared the American Police more than he did the Police in South Africa during Apartheid. I am pretty sure he said this trying to be funny but I sure thought it was ill timed. If he did not mean it as humor then he needs to get his ass back to South Africa just to be sure of his statement.

 

This article also printed the following: "Although Stewart has called it a FAKE NEWS S HOW, a lot of people do rely on THE DAILY SHOW as a PRIMARY NEWS SOURCE."  And unfortunately that statement is more than likely true. This gives a whole new slant on the so called "UNINFORMED VOTER" or a better description might be the "MISINFORMED VOTER". Either is pretty scary when you think that these idiots might actually be a force in electing our next President.

------------------------------------

OK....... You ready for this?  The title for the #1 selling album is.............."TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY" performed by none other than Kendrick Lamar.  I don't think I can even comment on this crap.

--------------------------------

In the event that I am overcome by an attack of LUNACY and I decide to go hiking on the border regions of Iran and Iraq and I am taken hostage by either Iran or the Taliban...... PLEASE DO NOT LET JOHN KERRY OR ANY OF HIS CRACK NEGOTIATING TEAM HANDLE THE NEGOTIATIONS FOR MY RELEASE.  Let someone a little more competent like Richard Simmons or Pee Wee Hermann handle it.

------------------------------

I have heard and read quite a bit about people wondering about if Hillary Clinton violated any laws while serving in the Obama Cabinet.  I don't know for sure about her e-mail fiasco or her lying her ass off about Benghazi, but, if IMPERSONATING A SECRETARY OF STATE is a crime then I think we have a case.

------------------------------

The more I see and hear of Ted Cruz, the more I am convinced that he needs to be the Republican Candidate in 2016.

March 25th, 2015   CLUELESS / ERA

 

 

 

Wednesday - March 25, 2015

Hello once again from the Association Of Jingoistic Xenophobic Firearms Owning Fossil Fuel Burning Vast Right Wing Conspiratorial Ammunition Purchasers Of West Texas.

CLUELESS:

 

CLUELESS - having no hint, trace, indication, evidence, inkling, inference on a particular subject.

 

Just for the sake of argument, I would submit the three of the most CLUELESS individuals in our country today are: BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA; HILLARY CLINTON; JOHN KERRY, and the order can be shuffled and still be correct.

 

Let us begin with the President of the United States Barack Hussein Obama who has referred to ISIS/ISIL as "The JV" and who according to him would create no real problems. Then later on, after actions showed that ISIS/ISIL was in fact creating major problems world wide, Barack Hussein Obama took a real hard stance and said that we must take action to "DISRUPT" these ISIS/ISIL Terrorists. But even then he tried to pass off some Radical Muslim attacks against chosen targets as "RANDOM ATTACKS". And don't forget that Obama called Benghazi "A Bump In The Road".

 

Then we need to look at the alleged Nuclear Deal with IRAN. And of course this involves not only Barack Hussein Obama, but his incompetent Secretary of State John Kerry. When I watch a video of the Iranian Ayatollah making a speech and agreeing with the crowd who was chanting "DEATH TO AMERICA", I had to wonder if this was the same IRAN that Barack Hussein Obama and John Kerry keep assuring us can be trusted to abide by an agreement regarding the production of a Nuclear Bomb.

So, not looking any further than the activities in the Middle East by ISIS/ISIL as well as actions by IRAN, it is not to difficult to reach the conclusion that both Barack Hussein Obama and John Kerry are CLUELESS...... either that or TRAITORS........ OR BOTH.

 

Which brings us to Hillary Clinton. To give an example of just how CLUELESS this satchel ass heifer is, on one video, Hillary was asked what her greatest accomplishment was. Here is her answer:

 

"My accomplishment as Secretary of State? Well, I'm glad you asked! My proudest accomplishment in which I take the most pride, mostly because of the opposition it faced early on, you know? The remnants of prior situations and mindsets that were too narrowly focused in a manner whereby they may have overlooked the bigger picture and we didn't do that and I'm proud of that. Very proud. I would sat that's a major accomplishment."

 

Now read that carefully and explain to me just exactly what the accomplishment actually was. The first clue you should get is this; When some politician is asked a specific question and the first thing out of their mouth is.... "I'M GLAD YOU ASKED THAT", or "THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION", you need to realize two things:

 

1) THEY ARE NOT GLAD YOU ASKED THAT QUESTION, IN FACT THEY WISH YOU WOULD BURST INTO FLAMES AND DISAPPEAR.

 

2) THEY DO NOT THINK YOUR QUESTION WAS A GOOD ONE. IN FACT THEY THINK THIS IS THE WORST POSSIBLE QUESTION YOU COULD ASK.

 

ALL THEY ARE DOING IS PLAYING FOR TIME IN AN ATTEMPT TO COME UP WITH AN ANSWER THAT THEY CAN SELL TO THE AUDIENCE.

 

In fact you can almost bank upon their answer to either be a complete lie OR make no sense at all. Which was the case for Ms. Clinton and is pretty much the case for everything she says. Henceforth, she is CLUELESS.

 

ERA:

 

ERA - a period of time measured from some important event; a period of time having some special characteristic.

 

At the present time, I would have to say that we are in THE TECHNOLOGY ERA. I believe we have been in this very era since the desk top personal computer first became a common sight in almost every business and every household. Now, while I enjoy my computer and it enables me to communicate with many others all around the globe as well as puts right at my fingertips sites which will give me information on almost any subject I can think of. I do not have a smart phone or an iPad or an iPhone or a blackberry or any other electronic device. But while I do not play the technology game like most of our young people, when my electricity fails or the cable company has problems, I can still communicate with others by the written word or by actually speaking with them since I also was fortunate enough to have grown up during a time when our electronic devices of today were not available. I guess you could say I was born and grew up in a different era.

 

I was four years and eight months old when Pearl Harbor was bombed. Several years ago I found and read my Mother's entries in my Baby Book. And the funny thing is, I actually can remember a bunch of the stuff she made reverence to. I vividly remember that when I was about three years old, my Dad got hurt in the oilfield. We were living in Wortham, Texas at the time. So my Dad was home for a couple of months and spent lots of time with me. He read me stories and taught me games and although I can still recall this, my Mother made record of it in that book. While my Dad was home, which was in about 1940, we played a game called States and Capitols. My Dad would name a state, in no particular order, and I would name the Capitol of that state. Or he would name the Capitol and I would name the state. I was three years old and knew from memory the name of all the 48 states and all of the 48 capitol cities.

My Dad had probably a 10th grade education but realized how important it would be in the future for his child to have a better education. I have never forgotten those years and also by the time I reached the first grade in Houston, Texas I could already read and not only print but write cursive script. Of course I understand that in today's educational society cursive writing is no longer required and many of the young people today cannot even read this type of writing. A damn sad commentary on our current education system.... and in addition, a great many young people CANNOT NAME YOU THE CAPITOL OF THE STATE IN WHICH THEY RESIDE.

 

Apparently, we are living in an era at present where the history of our nation and our state of residence no longer has any meaning.

 

I grew up in my formative years in Houston, Texas from the years 1941 through 1956 when I graduated from High School. One of my real regrets in my life is that I did not do my best in High School. I was too busy having fun. I did well in the subjects in which I was interested and just did enough to make it through the other subjects. I guess I was a bit too selfish during those years to worry about doing harm to myself by not doing my best at all times.

Anyway, the years in which I was growing up in Houston were some of the happiest years of my life. Houston had about 500,000 inhabitants and it was safe to go anywhere at any time of the day or night without fear. The very first time I ever saw the ground covered with snow was when I left the old Houston City Auditorium from viewing the great live show put on by..... SPIKE JONES AND HIS CITY SLICKERS. I had ridden the bus downtown to see the show and I rode the bus home. During this great show, it snowed and covered the ground. I was 10 years old and it was safe to ride from Southwest Houston to downtown Houston and back again after 10 PM. I can't imagine doing that today. Anyway, that was an era that I shall always remember and be saddened that the young people of today can never experience.

 

During those times, it seems as if the elected officials at the state and federal levels were a bit more trustworthy than today's elected vermin. I am sure they did some really underhanded stuff back then but it didn't even approach the criminal acts of today's elected slugs.

MORE STUFF:

 

This week, a really great football player died at age 89. His name was Charles Philip "Chuck" Bednarik. What was so special about Chuck Bednarik is that he was the last full time two way player in the NFL. (Now for those of you residing in the People's Republic of San Francisco, this means he played on both offense and defense). Yeah, I know that Deion Sanders played some on offense and defense when he was with the Cowboys but not full time. In the 1960 NFL Championship game, Chuck Bednarik played every play except for two Philadelphia kickoffs....... over 58 minutes. Of course by today's standards at 6 ft. 3 and weighing 233 pounds he would be light for the offensive line but Bednarik is one of those players who could have played in ANY ERA.

 

I was watching several programs on NFL Films and a lot of it was from those NFL teams from the 1950s through mid 1960s. On one of the programs they showed a replay of the 1958 NFL Championship Game between the Baltimore Colts and the New York Giants. I had forgotten just how many Hall of Fame players took part in that game. Of course it was also the FIRST NFL OVERTIME GAME EVER. The Colts won the game by 6 points thanks to a touchdown run by Alan Ameche. I will still contend that the Baltimore Colts wide receiver Raymond Berry is THE BEST WIDE RECEIVER I HAVE EVER SEEN AT ANY LEVEL. He is one who could also have played in any era. On one of the programs one of the retired players said that there were only three running backs he would pay to watch; Jim Brown, Earl Campbell, and Gayle Sayers. Of course Brown was from the late 50s era; Campbell was from the 70s era and Sayers was from the 60s era.

 

But getting back to Chuck Bednarik, he was one tough dude. He graduated from high school and immediately entered the United States Army Air Force and served as a waist gunner on a B-24 crew. He flew on 30 missions over Germany. After his military service he entered the University of Pennsylvania. His Senior year he won the Maxwell Award and finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting. He played on two NFL Championship teams in Philadelphia in 1947 and 1960. I was fortunate to have watched the 1960 game on TV. His jersey number #60 was retired by the Philadelphia Eagles.

--------------------------------------

OK. Now let's hear all of the Liberals/Democrats/Socialists/Marxists fill us in on just how STUPID Ted Cruz is. Of course his very liberal Law Professor at Harvard, Alan Dershowitz, pointed out that as a student in his class at Harvard, Cruz was perhaps the SMARTEST student he had ever taught. But let's don't pay any attention to stuff like that. Let us instead keep talking about how stupid Ted Cruz is.... of course what really pissed off the Democrats/Socialists/Marxists was that Senator Ted Cruz made his televised announcement at Liberty University WITHOUT USING NOTES OR A TELEPROMPTER. The Socialists cannot stand anyone who can do something without assistance which is required by Barack Hussein Obama.

 

As you all know, I have been a fan of Ted Cruz for a good while. And now I know that I have picked the right man to support for the Republican Nominee for President in 2016. Here are a few reasons why I know I am right:

 

1) Ted Cruz is reviled by the Mainstream Media

2) Ted Cruz is evidently despised by John McCain

3) Ted Cruz has the support of real Conservatives

4) And this is the real capper............. Karl Rove DOES NOT SUPPORT TED CRUZ nor do the Establishment Republicans.

 

I guess, what I am saying is that I have NO USE for Karl Rove or the Establishment Republicans or the Mainstream Media or the RNC. Whether or not Senator Cruz can win the nomination is still up in the air but I will support him against the so called "Beltway Republicans".

------------------------------

I don't know a whole bunch about Utah Governor Gary Herbert, but I sure like his style in not messing around when he signed into law allowing a firing squad to be used as means of carrying out the Utah Death Penalty, when injection execution drugs are unavailable. It sure shows that he has the guts to not sit around and whine like many other Governors do when a problem arises. Governor Herbert said that he found the Firing Squad "a little bit gruesome" but that since Utah was a capital punishment state that a back up method had to be in place.

 

GOOD GUYS:

March 18th, 2015   RACISM

 
 

WEDNESDAY - March 18, 2015

 

Greetings from the West Texas Headquarters Of The Jingoistic Draconian Xenophobic Armed Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

 

RACISM:

 

After the two police officers were shot while standing in front of the Police Station in Ferguson, Missouri, I was fully expecting the response which was received from the persons interviewed the next evening. Of course the officers were among a large contingent of law enforcement to provide security for another night of demonstrations from a crowd of people, many of whom were not even residents of the City of Ferguson.

 

As I understand it, the race hustlers had been demanding the resignation of the Ferguson Police Chief. Of course the Police Chief did in fact resign but the demonstrators were still doing their thing which I believe was being fueled by the report issued by the Department of Justice and engineered by Eric Holder. And in my opinion, the entire big deal made of the shooting of Michael Brown was nothing more than a tool for the U.S. Department of Justice and the Obama Administration to get their foot in the door in an effort to control law enforcement at a local level.

 

It is obvious that there was not enough evidence to show that the Brown shooting was a crime but of course the race hustlers made sure that the whole incident was made to appear if it was a white on black incident driven by racism.

 

If you wanted to get a really good look at racism, just remember the statements and the attitudes of the demonstrators when they were interviewed about the shooting of the two Officers a few days ago. I watched at least 6 people interviewed on FOX News and there was one black male who was not a demonstrator who said that he was friends with the Ferguson Police Chief who had just resigned and was friends with the Ferguson Mayor and a number of Officers.  He said that when he first heard of two police officers being shot he was afraid that it might be two Ferguson Officers whom he might have known. This man was well spoken and was obviously in the minority of the people interviewed on the evening after the two Officers were shot.

Then we had the one idiot who kept harping on the fact that the shooting of the two Police Officers was payback for the shooting of Michael Brown and he kept bringing up the fact of Michael Brown's body remaining in the street for four hours after the shooting.

OK, I'm only going to say this once. In a HOMICIDE INVESTIGATION, the body of the person who was killed should not be moved from where it ended up until the crime scene is clear AND ALL POSSIBLE EVIDENCE HAS BEEN GATHERED.

 

I have been involved in quite a few homicide investigations, particularly when the crime scene is outdoors, where the body of the dead person remained UNTOUCHED for several hours OR MORE. THE LENGTH OF TIME THAT THE BODY OF THE DEAD PERSON LIES AT THE SAME LOCATION WHERE IT FINALLY FELL HAS ABSOLUTELY NO BEARING ON WHETHER OR NOT THE SHOOTING OR CAUSING THE DEATH OF A PERSON IS A CRIME.  But I am also sure that facts have absolutely no bearing on what these demonstrators are really after.  And it is pretty obvious to me that the facts of the case had no bearing on the ERIC HOLDER JUSTICE DEPARTMENT.
Even though the federal investigation showed that the evidence SUPPORTED the version told by Officer Darren Wilson, the HOLDER JUSTICE DEPARTMENT was still determined to show some type of RACIAL PREJUDICE against the Ferguson Police Department in order to force federal mandated changes to a local government. And apparently they succeeded in doing exactly that.

Let me point out one thing to the uninformed people who are supporters of the race pimps Al Sharpton and the Holder Justice Department. Ferguson, Missouri is said to be a city with a population of approximately 21,000 people.  It is also said that the population of Ferguson, Missouri is approximately 67% black. Now even using Common Core Math, that would indicate that of the 21,000 inhabitants of Ferguson, MO, that approximately 14,070 inhabitants were black. SO, with those figures in mind, would it not stand to reason that at least two thirds; 2/3; 66.66% of the people stopped or handled by the Ferguson Police Department would be black?  

AH, but let us not forget that the Police Department really has no control over the racial percentage of crimes committed.  BUT the bottom line is that RACISM is merely the convenient excuse to use anytime something happens which does not please; AL SHARPTON; JESSE JACKSON;  BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA;  ERIC HOLDER; and a host of others in various elected and appointed positions.

 

The real truth behind the Michael Brown shooting is that Michael Brown and his friend had just committed a ROBBERY (and a really stupid robbery at that) and when stopped by Officer Wilson attacked the Officer and tried to get the Officers handgun and in an additional attempted attack on the Officer was shot and killed. Michael Brown instigated the entire incident and pretty much received what he asked for. I have heard enough of people from various segments of the News Media and from elected officials talking about what a shame it was for Michael Brown to lose his life. I say that Michael Brown was not much of an addition to the population of Ferguson, Missouri and pretty much received the justice which he deserved.

 

AND, let us not forget that Barack Hussein Obama being elected as President of the United States was to END ALL RACIAL PROBLEMS IN THE UNITED STATES. Just ask yourself, in the past 6 years, are racial differences better or worse than in the previous 8 years?

--------------------------------

OK, if there was any doubt about Hillary Clinton lying her ass off, well make that partially off since I notice that she still has an abundance left over, the let me drop a couple of other names who came out in raging support of Hillary and her e-mail problems:  PAUL BEGALA and HOWARD DEAN.  The truth would gag these two bozos.

 

Still on the subject of RACISM, I saw a photo of some black actors who were popular back in the early days of television. The show was AMOS 'N ANDY. The program was pretty much an all-black cast and it was a half-hour situation comedy revolving around one of the characters, George "Kingfish" Stevens and his efforts to keep one step ahead of this fellow lodge members with his main sidekick, Andrew H. "Andy" Brown being on the receiving end of many of his schemes. But just as often as not, "Kingfish's" schemes would backfire on him and he would end up with the short end of the stick.

AH, but enter the NAACP and some other Activist groups and they put on the pressure and the network cancelled the program. I have seen one or two of those black actors in other roles but were usually just bit parts. Here is a list of the main actors in that series:

AMOS -------------------------------  Alvin Childers.
ANDY -------------------------------   Spencer Williams Jr.

GEORGE "KINGFISH" STEVENS--  Tim Moore

ALGONQUIN J. CALHOUN --------  Johnny Lee

SAPPHIRE STEVENS ---------------  Ernestine Wade

MAMA (Sapphire's Mom)--------  Amanda Randolph

LIGHTNIN' ---------------------------  Nick Stewart

 

Every one of these actors was out of work thanks to the NAACP and some other activist groups. A damn shame. It was a really funny show and I didn't miss it.

------------------------------

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU WON. I am sure that the Obama group of usual suspects are all pissed........ which means that I am pretty happy.

 

The bottom line is that Israel has a strong leader while we have not only the weakest President during my lifetime but the most liberal/Socialist as well.

-------------------------------

PLEASE DO NOT LET THE REPUBLICAN ESTABLISHMENT OR THE MEDIA CHOOSE THE REPUBLICAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. IT HAS NEVER WORKED IN THE PAST AND IT WILL NOT WORK IN 2016.

-------------------------------

One last item. I watched a clip of Barack Hussein Obama a couple of days back when he said that ISIL/ISIS was a direct result of the U.S. invading Iraq. SO, I guess that GEORGE BUSH gets the nod over GLOBAL WARMING in the cause for these ISIS/ISIL terrorists.

March 11th, 2015  LIES / SCAMS

 

Wednesday - March 11, 2015

 

Greetings from the Primary Headquarters Of The Jingoistic Xenophobic Vast Right Wing Conspiracy Of West Texas....... which in my opinion is not nearly Vast Enough  nor Conspiratorial Enough.

 

LIES:

 

OK.  Other than when their lips are moving,  how do you tell when a Clinton (Bill or Hillary) is lying? Really easy.  Just watch and see who comes to their defense and tries to cover for their lies.

 

Within the past couple of days I have watched Hillary speak after a session at the United Nations. To say that she appeared to be untruthful would be a mild understatement.  In my opinion her answers did nothing but fortify my position that  both Bill and Hillary believe that rules are made for everyone else to follow but that does not include a Clinton.

 

Now also within this time period I saw Lanny Davis on several shows and he attempted to completely minimize the private e-mail server used by Hillary as just being another attempt of the Right Wing to mess up Hillary's run for the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist Party's selection as their Presidential Candidate for 2016. Keep in mind that Lanny Davis has been the Clinton's Attorney in some past instances and has maintained their innocence on every occasion.

 

But let us move on to another Liberal who has carried more water for the Clintons than Gunga Din did for the British Army.  That would be none other than James Carville.  Of course in the eyes of James Carville, apparently NO  DEMOCRAT can ever do anything wrong.

 

But in any event, when these two bozos leap to the forefront to profess the innocence of a Clinton and try to blame FOX News,  The Republican Party, TEA Party Extremists, George Bush,  or some other person or entity then you can damn near take it to the bank that the Clintons have done exactly what they are suspected of doing.

 

I did not catch Hillary's entire presentation but I did manage to catch some highlights during her speech as well as  some excerpts show later in the day.  Now with the Clinton's propensity for flat out lying, why should any of us be expected to believe her claim that of over 10,000 e-mails that she chose to delete because SHE  CONSIDERED  THEM  TO  BE  PERSONAL  IN  NATURE. And isn't it strange that the well published photo of Hillary sitting in an aircraft with some type of instrument in her hand ON THE DAY OF THE BENGHAZI ATTACKS, that she had NO COMMUNICATIONS or sent any e-mails during that time.

 

Then she claims that a great many of her DELETED E-MAILS were private between she and her ever faithful husband BILL.  But why is it that Bill Clinton claims that he has not sent any e-mails?

 

COULD  IT  BE  THAT  BOTH  OF  THE  CLINTONS HAVE LIED SO MUCH  THAT THEY FORGET WHICH LIES THEY TOLD TO COVER UP SOME INDISCRETION ON THEIR PART?

 

Then, of course, there is the fact that The Clinton Foundation has accepted donations from foreign governments... which as I understand it is against the law.... AH but of course THE  CLINTONS  ARE  ABOVE  THE  LAW AND AS EVERYONE  KNOWS...... LAWS ARE  MADE FOR US TO FOLLOW.... BUT  NOT  THE  CLINTONS.

 

It even looks like the NY Times and a whole plethora of other far left loony outfits are bailing on Hillary.  To which I say..... TOUGH!  Anyone,  any organization,  any political party,  or any  media outlet who has not figured out that the Clintons are liars of the highest magnitude  should be committed to the same institution as was Randle Patrick McMurphy.  For those of you residing in the People's Republic of San Francisco, this was the mental institution portrayed in the movie "One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest".

I am not sure that Nurse Ratched was not more likeable and trustworthy than Hillary.  I also wonder if Ol' Bill ever feels like Jack Nicholson did in the film? 

 

SCAMS:

 

Yesterday I sent out a questionnaire to everyone on my mail list regarding a toll free telephone # with the toll free code of 844.  Thank everyone who replied and I spent most of my day going to various sites and checking into this call and the 844 number they gave me to call for further information.  Here is the information on the call:

 

I received a call from a female saying that she was representing a company who delivered legal notices to people.  She said that she had some legal papers to deliver to me and my daughter, Katherine. I do have a daughter but her name is NOT Katherine nor does she reside with me or even in the State of Texas.

 

I asked this woman who the legal papers were from and of course she did not know BUT I could call:  844-531-8890 and give them the reference #46492CV15 and they could give me the information I was requesting.

 

I was not about to dial that number without doing some checking and that is when I thought I had remembered getting several e-mails from several different people warning about calling the toll free exchange 844.  After I sent out the inquiry I did go to several different places and learned that there had been complaints for months on at least 500 different telephone numbers beginning with the toll free 844 exchange.  These scams ranged from IRS payments to unpaid traffic warrants and unpaid fines for not reporting for jury duty.  ALL  WERE  SCAMS.

 

Apparently when you call that toll free number they attempt to get information from you to..... make sure you are the right  person.  Of course some of this information involves either the last four digits of your Social Security Number to various other types of numerical identifiers.

 

Thank all of you for rapid response.

 

Also, I have received numerous calls allegedly from Microsoft advising me that I have some type of problem with my computer and they want you to call another number and allow them access to your computer so that they can fix the problem.  This scam is so lame that I hung up on them the first couple of times.  Then they were paid a visit from "The Air Horn From Hell". The woman who called last evening probably heard language that she had not heard before.  I do not feel the least bit guilty of giving people like those scam callers all the trouble I can.

 

Incidentally, immediately after I found out for sure this 844 stuff was a scam I did order a call blocker from Amazon.  I have heard that these work fairly well and I have about had enough.  And I have placed my name and number on the DO  NOT  CALL LIST for both Home and Cell phones and at this point I am not too impressed with either.

QUOTES:

 

"The bottom line  is that all this hard evidence, and more, show what a complete lie was behind all the stories of Michael Brown being shot in the back or being shot while raising his hands in surrender.  Yet that lie was repeated, and dramatized in demonstrations and riots from coast to coast, as well as in the media and even in the halls of Congress."........... THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"Blacks are far more statistically over-represented among basketball stars in the NBA than among people stopped by police in Ferguson.  Hispanics are similarly far more over-represented among baseball stars than in the general population.  Asian Americans are likewise far more over-represented among students at leading engineering schools like M.I.T. and Cal Tech than in the population as a whole. None of this is peculiar to the United States.  You can find innumerable examples of such group disparities in countries around the world and throughout recorded history........... Since the population is 67 percent black, he greatest possible over-representation of blacks among those stopped by  police  or fined by courts is 59 percent.  That would not make the top 100 disparities in the United States or the top 1,000 in the world."........ THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"Secretary of State John Kerry says that there is less violence than usual in the world right now.  Meanwhile the Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, says the opposite, that terrorism is more violent and dangerous than ever.  Since Clapper is Director of National Intelligence, maybe Kerry should have the title Director of National Stupidity.".......................  THOMAS  SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.".....

MORE STUFF:

 

OK. Real quickly, if you want to really know who could be the worst possible candidate for the Republican Party for the 2016 Presidential election, you have to look no further than DAVID  AXELROD and GERALDO  RIVERA,  both of whom said that Jeb Bush would give the Republican Party the best chance for a win in 2016.  One must come to the conclusion that either BOTH Axelrod and Rivera were bitten by rabid squirrels..... OR they are both lying like a Clinton. I don't think a squirrel,  rabid or not would touch either of these bozos.

--------------------------------------------

Now let us look for a moment at the Netanyahu speech before a Joint Session of the House and Senate.  You have to go no further than CNN and listen to the unbiased views of Christiane Amanpour.  Now I know that she is not a member of the Muslim faith, however she was born in Iran.  Let's see now,  do Israel and Iran work and play well together?  I think not.  I have had little or NO  USE  for Christiane Amanpour since the first Gulf War.  And in practically every other Middle Eastern conflict since then she has done everything possible to disrespect the U.S. Military.  SO when MS. AMANPOUR badmouths Benjamin Netanyahu that only makes me respect him more.

 

Keep in mind,  Israel is a country roughly the area in square miles as Lea County, New Mexico and are surrounded by Muslim countries, many of whom want them wiped off the face of the earth. Seems as if they tried this a couple of times in the past with negative results.  Anyway, Mr. Netanyahu is doing everything in his power to protect his people and his nation. Too bad we don't have a leader who would do the same for us.

 

Of course one of the high points of Prime Minister Netanyahu's visit was how childish it made Obama, Kerry, Biden and the remainder of the Obama band of Merry Men act.  I feel as if Mr. Netanyahu was about as welcome to the Obama bunch as a ...... video camera at an Oklahoma University Sigma Alpha Epsilon event.

---------------------------------------

Last Friday, I had the pleasure of a visit from a friend of several years and three brand new friends.  They flew in to San Angelo from the San Antonio area and we had lunch at the Packsaddle Café which is old and run down looking but serves really good  Bar-B-Cue,  Catfish, and old fashioned Hamburgers.  I try to eat there about once a month to replenish my required monthly food loaded with fat intake.  Anyway, my thanks to Mugs,  Tosh,  Bubba, and Bob for taking the time out to get in some flying hours and keep me company. 

There was also a bonus as I learned that one of these good men was also an author.  So I ordered his book immediately upon returning home.  I would like to plug his book along with the latest release of another good friend who is a local author with whom I have lunch fairly regularly also at the Packsaddle.  Here is the information on the two books which can both be purchased through AMAZON.

 

WOLF  POINT -  Mike Thompson  .... I read this in two nights and thoroughly enjoyed the book.

PILOT ERROR - Tosh McIntosh ....... It should be in within a week and it will go to the top of my reading list

March 4th, 2015  TRUST / CPAC

 

 

Wednesday - March 4, 2015

 

Hello once more from the Frozen Jingoistic Second Amendment Supporting Xenophobic SUV Drivers Of West Texas.

 

TRUST:

 

TRUST - a firm belief in the honesty and reliability of another; faith; confident expectation; hope;  to have confidence in; to believe

 

As you can see, unless you are a product of today's educational system, the word TRUST can either be a noun or a verb.

 

At this particular point in time, I have absolutely no positive TRUST in Barack Hussein Obama or in any of his appointees or for the lion's share of Establishment Republican Congressmen/women or Senators and practically ALL of the Democrat/Progressive/Socialist Congressmen/women and Senators.

 

It is fairly obvious to me that the Republicans have completely lost sight of the reasons for which they were elected in 2014 and I doubt seriously if any of the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists ever knew from the start.

 

This past week I have watched Democrat/Socialist Representatives and Senators demand certain things of the Republican Majorities.  They act as if they held onto the Majorities in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. BUT, what is so bad is the fact that the Republican Wimps act as if they LOST their majority status.

 

I have absolutely no trust in the Establishment Republican leadership (or lack thereof) and with a few exceptions could not support or vote for most of them to retain their elected positions.

 

AND, after listening to and watching most of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech before a Joint Session of Congress, I have come to the conclusion that I trust Prime Minister Netanyahu more than I trust President Barack Hussein Obama AND all of his Cabinet and Staff.

 

I am sure that there are many things regarding the Middle East and the Iranian nuclear talks to which I am not privileged but for some reason Mr. Netanyahu appears to have a much better grasp on things going on in that region than do ANY of the Obama clan of clowns.

 

When I hear Obama and John Kerry and Susan Rice and those two idiot State Department spokesheifers  all tell us that the Middle East is as safe as it has ever been AND that the relations between the U.S. and Israel are better than ever then the term TRUST completely leaves the area.  These people have lied to us for the past six years and have seized power over areas which the Constitution does not grant them powers.

 

It is a damn shame when an American citizen has more faith in the leader of a foreign government than he does in his own national leaders.  And it is also inexcusable for Americans to disrespect Israel, who is our best ally in the Middle East and perhaps anywhere else.

 

I DO NOT  TRUST: Obama;  Any Member of the Obama Administration (past and present); Any of the Clintons; U.S. Congress*; U.S. Senate*;  Iran;  The News Media*;  Democrat Party;  Establishment Republicans: Saudi Arabia;  Yemen and several more Middle Eastern countries ........ *Indicates damn few exceptions.

 

CPAC:

 

First of all, when I saw that Sean Hannity was going to be the host of the Republican CPAC convention, I pretty well knew that it was headed down the road to kooksville.  I have very little use for Sean Hannity and even though on occasion he will say something which appears to make sense, those occasions are fairly rare.

 

I am not sure but I believe that Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer commanded fewer troops at the Little Big Horn than there are alleged Republican Presidential Candidates.  I attempted to watch a good bit of this CPAC dog and pony show but in the end I took away the fact that Scott Walker and Ted Cruz appeared to be the only two who had a clue as to what needs to be addressed by the next Republican President..... if there ever is another.

At the end of the day when the pollsters conducted their highly suspect surveys and Rand Paul comes out as the winner, then I feel like the fix is on. Over the past year, Rand Paul has continued to change his tune to play to which ever audience he is trying to impress.  But I guess my main problem with Rand Paul is that the more I hear him speak, the more he reminds me of his father, Ron Paul.  I am sure I will piss off a few Texans but in my opinion, and I have said this on numerous occasions in the past,  RON  PAUL  IS  GOOFY.  So I guess that I am leaning toward the opinion that Rand Paul leans toward goofiness himself.

 

Anyway, I could support Scott Walker,  Ted Cruz and perhaps a couple of the other Republicans but I am not sure that the mainstream media or the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists  will allow any of those folks to win the nomination.  Unless, of course that they are too busy in covering up for Hillary to notice someone with a little common sense sneaking in.

MORE STUFF:

 

In watching the Netanyahu speech I noticed that Nancy Pelosi showed her ignorant ass by turning her back toward the Israeli Prime Minister during one of the many standing ovations.  I also noticed that the Senators and Congresspersons who boycotted the Netanyahu speech were apparently ALL Democrats/Progressives/Socialists/Marxists which included Representatives Eddie Bernice Johnson and  Beto O'Rourke from TEXAS.  What a surprise.  Of course Vice President Biden was absent as well as he was off on some type of important assignment.  Someone told me that Biden had just been made aware of the "Scopes Monkey Trial" and he was off to learn just exactly why .... Monkeys needed mouthwash in the first place.  Good luck with that Joe.  Now I am not trying to say that Joseph Biden is uneducated or even stupid..... but I do question anyone whose idea of a great movie is.... "Dude, Where's My Car".  Perhaps he is just goofy like Rand Paul.

----------------------------------

I also looked into the latest House Bill which passed with some Republican support and could not help but notice that Rep. Carter and Rep. Hurd, who are both from TEXAS voted along with 73 other Republican Representative, including Boehner to pass this piece of legislation which looks like they caved in to Obama's AMNESTY Executive Order. SO, those of you who live in Texas and in districts represented by these slugs, remember them the next time they come up for re-election.

---------------------------

Fresh from the pages of the (Sub) Standard Times.... A  VOICE  FOR  MUSLIMS which described how a high school student, Amara Majeed, had provided commentary for CNN on issues affecting the Muslim community.  She founded THE  HIJAB PROJECT, which is meant to foster SOCIAL AWARENESS of prejudice in the United States against girls and women who wear headscarves.  Now I am sure that neither the (Sub) Standard Times or CNN or Heaven forbid Amara Majeed might have their wires crossed a bit.  It is my understanding that headscarves are not a problem.  HOWEVER, the headgear worn by Muslim women which also covers their faces seem to present a bit of a problem, particularly when having their photos made for a Photo I.D.

Now, perhaps CNN and Liberals/Progressives/Democrats/Socialists by the wholesale lot need a lesson in "Social Awareness", but most of us would rather read the comic page of the (Sub) Standard Times than be subjected to this politically  correct crap.

February 25th, 2015  RILEY / DOUGLASS / AWARDS

 

Wednesday - February 25, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the West Texas Headquarters Of Jingoistic Angry Conservative Firearms Owners Who Are Sick Of The National Republican Wimps.

 

RILEY/DOUGLASS:

 

I am sure that many of you have seen a young man named JASON RILEY as a guest on many of the FOX News shows. Jason is an editorial board member and a senior editorial page writer at the Wall Street Journal, where he writes on politics, economics, education, immigration, and race. He is also a FOX News Contributor.  He previously worked for USA Today and the Buffalo News. He is also the author of ... PLEASE STOP HELPING US: HOW LIBERALS MAKE IT HARDER FOR BLACKS TO SUCCEED. On January 30, 2015, Jason Riley delivered a speech at Hillsdale College's Allan P. Kirby Jr. Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship in Washington, D.C.

 

If you have ever seen and listened to Jason Riley on various programs, you will soon realize that he is no fan of Barack Obama or most of the positions taken by Obama and Establishment Democrats/Progressives/Socialists. As you can probably tell by the title of his book, he is as far away from being a liberal as are most of us. And I guess at this point, for those who do not know this young man, Jason Riley is a Conservative Black Man, in the same mold of Thomas Sowell. In his speech on January 30th, he points out that "RACISM HAS BECOME AN ALL-PURPOSE EXPLANATION FOR BAD BLACK OUTCOMES, BE THEY SOCIAL OR ECONOMIC.  IF YOU DISAGREE AND ARE WHITE.... YOU'RE A BIGOT.  IF YOU DISAGREE AND ARE BLACK .... YOU'RE A SELL OUT." I am not sure I have heard anyone explain it any more clearly than did Mr. Riley in that short statement. He also stated that, "Any candid debate on race and criminal justice in this country would have to start with the fact that blacks commit an astoundingly disproportionate number of crimes. Blacks constitute about 13 percent of the population, yet between 1976 and 2005 they committed more than half of all murders in the U.S.  The black arrest rate for most offenses -- including property crimes -- is typically two to three times their representation in the population. As long as blacks are committing such an outsized amount of crime, young black men will be viewed suspiciously and tensions between police and crime ridden communities will persist."

 

He went on to point out this fact:  "The U.S. criminal justice system, currently headed by a black attorney general who reports to a black president, is a reflection of this reality, not its cause. If we want to change negative perceptions of young black men, we must change the behavior that is driving those perceptions. But pointing this out has become almost taboo. How can we even begin to address problems if we won't discuss them honestly?"

 

He points out that,; "Blacks ultimately must HELP THEMSELVES. They must develop the same attitudes and behaviors and habits that other groups had to develop to rise in America. And to the extent that a social policy, however well-intentioned, interferes with this self-development, IT DOES MORE HARM THAN GOOD."

 

Later in his presentation, Jason Riley quotes a statement made by former slave Frederick Douglass.  Asked by whites in 1865 what they could do for freed blacks, Frederick Douglass responded:  "I HAVE HAD BUT ONE ANSWER FROM THE BEGINNING.  DO NOTHING WITH US!  IF THE APPLES WILL NOT REMAIN ON THE TREE OF THEIR  OWN STRENGTH .......... LET THEM FALL! ... AND IF THE NEGRO CANNOT STAND ON HIS OWN LEGS, LET HIM FALL ALSO.  ALL I ASK IS,  GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO STAND ON HIS OWN LEGS?"  Jason Riley pointed out, "Douglass was essentially saying, give blacks equal opportunity and then leave them alone."

 

As you may have gathered, Jason Riley is no fan of the Race Hustlers like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.  Neither am I.

 

Hillsdale College is located at 33 E. College St.  Hillsdale, MI 49242. Their publication, IMPRIMIS, is free and is very informative.

 

AWARDS:

 

Last Sunday evening I was engrossed in reading a book and since there was really nothing much worthwhile on television, I turned my TV onto the channel that was broadcasting the Academy Awards program. And while I have not seen American Sniper, I wanted to see if perhaps it would actually win something so I had the volume on low and really paid very little attention until something of interest was mentioned. And while I did not really watch this fiasco very closely, I caught enough to convince me that I have been correct for the past ten or more years by not watching this crap.

I am not sure exactly what role that little Twinkie host, Neil Patrick Harris, played on some TV program in the past but while I recognized his face I pretty well formed the opinion just a few minutes into the program that the Academy Awards program had remained at the bottom of the barrel insofar as hosts and program content went. I remember the years when Bob Hope was the host of the program and of course Bob Hope was a class act as later was Johnny Carson and I am not sure but Billy Crystal might have been about as quick witted as anyone I have seen as a host.

The same cannot be said of Neil Patrick Harris. Of course from the few minutes to which I really paid any attention, it appeared to me as if this program had fallen into the trap of simply giving some of these Hollywood idiots a format to spout their activist and political views. I also noticed that most of the presenters of the awards, like the recipients, were people whom I had never seen or heard about.

 

I am sure that I am in the minority but listening to the activist views of Patricia Arquette on women's rights left me pretty empty. I did notice, however that Meryl Streep damn near wet her pants at Arquette's pitiful attempt to raise awareness.

 

Once again, I have not seen any of the movies which were up for the award for Best Picture but I have read some reviews on the movie, SELMA, and none of them were very complimentary of the movie. As a matter of fact, they all said the movie was a waste of time.  BUT, I would have bet a large sum of money that the political correctness of Hollywood would simply NOT ALLOW the movie SELMA to be shut out and I figured it would probably boil down to them settling for the award for the "Best Song". I thought the song was a "piece o' crap" as was the acceptance speech by those two boobs, the composer and the singer. They also managed to try and make a political statement bout people being incarcerated in our country. I thought that perhaps most of the recipients and presenters of the awards, with a few exceptions of course, probably belonged behind bars for their ignorant display at this bullshit event.

 

What really blew me away was the crap they had up for the Animated Films. From the short blurbs they showed that night and from some clips I have seen of these nominated animated films I reached the conclusion that the Academy and those who vote wouldn't know good animation if it were to break down their door and bite them square on the backside.

"Fantasia";  "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"; "Warner Brothers Cartoons" (all of 'em); " Tom & Jerry" (all of the old ones); "Donald Duck"; "Goofy" and probably any of the old Walt Disney feature length animated films are my idea of good animation. This computer generated animation don't feed the bulldog.

 

The real surprise of the evening and I was not ready for it was when they introduced LADY GAGA who sang several songs from "The Sound of Music" and did an exceptionally good job on her presentation. I have reached a conclusion that when Lady Gaga is my high point of the evening, the motion picture industry and the Academy Awards have no place in my future viewing choices.

"If all else fails, critics of Mayor Giuliani can say that a man is entitled to be considered innocent until proven guilty. But that principle applies in a court of law. Outside a court of law, there is no reason to presume anyone innocent until proven guilty. It is especially dangerous to presume a President of the United States -- any president -- innocent until proven guilty."........... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"There is little that can be done about President Obama now, no matter what he does. Impeachment, even if succeeded, would mean Joe Biden as president and riots across the country. It is hard to know which would be worse."............... THOMAS SOWELL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone.  There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....  Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

A few people have inquired as to why I had REPUBLICAN SENATE MAJORITY LEADER MITCH MCCONNELL on the VARMINT LIST. Apparently, the voters of this country in the 2014 elections giving control of the Senate to the Republican Party and increasing the Republican control of the House seems to have escaped the keen observation of Republican Senate Majority Leader Senator Mitch McConnell. The Republicans were not given majority status so that they could bust their collective asses to compromise with the Democrats/Progressives/Socialists. But earlier today I heard where Mitch McConnell has given in to the Harry Reid led Democrat Senators regarding the funding for Homeland Security. It appears that McConnell along with some other Establishment Republicans are afraid that they will be held to blame for the so called SHUT-DOWN of HOMELAND SECURITY.  The funding legislation to provide funds for everything other than the Obama Amnesty Order seems to me to be a step in the right direction. But apparently Mitch McConnell and some other so called Republican Senators don't share this view.  Anytime that John Boehner starts to appear stronger than me, I would be worried.

 

One thing I have noticed about Mitch McConnell however. And that is the superhuman strength he shows in the development of his right arm. I strongly suspect that he gained this arm strength..... FROM THROWING IN THE TOWEL AND CAVING IN TO THE DEMOCRATS/PROGRESSIVES/SOCIALISTS. Mitch should move to France where his surrender tactics would be appreciated.

 

McConnell is a typical example of today's Establishment Republicans...... who look strangely like Democrats.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

 This past week I watched a clip of Marco Rubio speaking before the Senate and I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased with his comments on Israel and the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Rubio has been making a little more sense to me over the past few weeks. I hope he continues along these lines.

-------------------------------

Please believe me when I say that the Mainstream Media is doing everything within their scope to push Jeb Bush as the Republican Nominee for President in 2016. Now I know all of you already know that I believe Hillary Clinton to be a pure lying varmint and super liberal. I also believe that in looking at the possibility of a Clinton - Bush election that the two are practically indistinguishable from one another.

 

If Jeb Bush is the Republican Nominee I will either leave that voting box blank OR do a write-in.  I will never again vote for another so called Republican Candidate that has been hand picked by the media.  I did that with Bob Dole and John McCain and I refuse to do it again.

February 18th, 2015    DISMANTLE / DEGREE

 

Wednesday - February 18, 2015

Greetings once again from the Association Of Right Wing Jingoistic Xenophobic Angry Menacing Masculine White Guys Who Drive Fossil Fuel Burning Four Wheel Drive Vehicles.  I am sure I missed some of the descriptive adjectives used by the Liberals/Democrats/Progressives/Socialists but I think y'all get the idea.

DISMANTLE:

 

I heard the world's most intelligent and articulate human, Barack Hussein Obama, make the statement that he intended to "DISMANTLE" ISIS along with other terrorist groups.  Of course this is the same Barack Hussein Obama who only a few months back was referring to ISIS/ISIL (take your pick) as "The Junior Varsity".   Didn't take 'em long to improve their status to the "Varsity", did it?

 

OK, let us look at the word he used regarding this and other Muslim Terrorist groups:

DISMANTLE -  to take apart;  to strip; to disassemble

 

Then one of his State Department spokes idiots in the person of MARIE  HARF made it perfectly clear that ISIS/ISIL COULD  NOT  be defeated by killing them off. No siree,  according to this brilliant broad, we had to address the ROOT  PROBLEM which caused people to want to join this group of merry killers... and that perhaps the root cause could be,  now get ready for this................ JOB  OPPORTUNITIES.  WOW!   Aren't we fortunate to have a government employee who has the keen observation to realize that these Muslim Terrorists simply want good jobs.  That sure takes a load off my mind.

 

Let me explain about Barack Hussein Obama's use of the term DISMANTLE.   Here is a man who originally called the Fort Hood Massacre of  13 people and the wounding of over 20 others,  WORKPLACE  VIOLENCE.  Even back then, Obama and his lyin' ass administration refused to call MUSLIM  TERRORISTS what they were.

 

And, apparently  within the past couple of weeks with the beheadings of over 20 people and the burning alive of some 42 others in various Middle-Eastern and North African countries, Obama and his administration still refuses to acknowledge that  RADICAL  MUSLIMS  are  not only trying, but succeeding in murdering people all over the globe. But, I guess that perhaps Ms. Harf has the answer in providing JOB  OPPORTUNITIES to these vermin.  Then, perhaps neither MS. HARF  nor  BARACK  HUSSEIN  OBAMA  really hold the best interests of not only American but other primarily Christian nations at a very high level.

 

In less than 20 seconds, I can DISMANTLE a Sig Sauer P226 handgun;  In roughly the same elapsed time period I can DISMANTLE a John Browning Model 1911 handgun;  It takes me a bit longer to DISMANTLE a Ruger Mini-14 rifle;  I can also DISMANTLE a Colt/Ruger Single Action handgun in under 45 seconds;  With a screwdriver I can DISMANTLE a S & W Revolver in well under a minute.   AND  in roughly  the same amount of time I can RE-ASSEMBLE all of the above mentioned firearms.

 

The point I am trying to make is that despite the razor sharp observations of MARIE  HARF,  the only way to  defeat  these terrorists is, in fact, to KILL  AS  MANY  AS  IT  TAKES.  Perhaps my Great Grand-daughter at age 4 had a better grasp on things.  She didn't like bugs and one day we walked out our front door and she spotted a lone ant walking across our front walk.  She ran over and stomped flat.  I took her around to the side of our house and showed her an ant bed crawling with the little creatures.  I told her that there were probably over a thousand ants in that ant bed.  She thought on that briefly then said, "Grandpa, Let's kill 'em all."   All in all at age 4 she had a better grasp of reality than does Marie Harf.

 

Last week, some friends and I were talking about war casualties.  One of them was a Veteran of WW II;  one of Korea; and the third from the Viet Nam War.  So after I got home I looked up the list of people killed from the United States;  Japan;  Germany  and Russia.  Of course almost all of the U.S. lives lost were U.S. Military while the other three countries also had some deaths of civilians from death camps and prison camps.  But here is what I was able to find out:

 

UNITED  STATES - 416, 837

JAPAN - 2,121,955

GERMANY - 5,533,000

RUSSIA - 10,725,345

 

Many of the Russian deaths also came through prison/death camps

 

AND,  I don't imagine that a shortage of JOBS in any of the Axis countries was the "ROOT  CAUSE" of World War II.  AND,  apparently  the Allied forces did indeed KILL their way to victory.  If you believe anything else then I believe you are grossly mistaken.

 

DEGREE:

 

While Wisconsin Governor, Scott Walker, is the choice of many conservatives to be the Republican Candidate for President in 2016, the Liberals/Democrats/Progressives/Socialists and their News Media seem to have uncovered a death dealing fact regarding Governor Walker in that he.......... I can hardly bear to say it........... DOES  NOT   HAVE  A COLLEGE  DEGREE.

 

Many in the media and great Americans like Democrat/Socialist former Vermont Governor Howard Dean have already declared that Governor Walker couldn't possibly lead our country with no college degree. 

OK.  Let me point out this fact...... Marie Harf has a Degree;  Barack Hussein Obama has a Degree;   Attorney General Eric Holder has a Degree;  I could go on forever with people who do have Degrees who have as little grasp of leadership and common sense as these previously named boobs.

I might also point out that President Harry Truman DID  NOT  have a Degree and not only did he show leadership but great courage in his two terms as a Democrat President.  Without  hesitation I can honestly say that in my opinion, Harry S. Truman WAS  THE  BEST  DEMOCRAT  PRESIDENT in my lifetime.

Of course, I would urge young people to pursue their education as far as possible BUT I can honestly say that  many college graduates today are graduating with degrees which are about as useful as a saddle for a pig.

My wife and I subscribe to the weekly paper which is published in her home town of Bremond, Texas, the Bremond Press.   Bremond, Texas is also home of the Class AA Division II Texas State Football Champions, the Bremond Tigers.  Bremond scored 3 touchdowns in the 4th quarter to win their 2014 State Championship.  Anyway,  Bremond, Texas is a very small Central Texas town and is primarily a farming/ranching community.  It has a large Polish population and was one of the primary Polish settlements in Texas in the early 1900's.  My wife's Mother and Grandparents migrated to Texas from what was at that time part of what is now Ukraine.  

 

A couple of weeks back there was an article about a Polish military unit on their way back to Poland from Siberia in WWII.  When going through Persia (Iran) they adopted an orphan baby bear.   This was in 1942.  No animals were allowed to be with a fighting unit unless they performed some type of service.  So, the soldiers trained this bear to carry 100 pound artillery shells during battle.   After the war was over, this bear was sent to a zoo in Scotland.  The article said that anytime this bear would hear anyone speaking in Polish, he would immediately perk up.  The bear's name was Woytek and died in the zoo in 1963.

 

I had rather read a good story like that than a bunch of crap in the (Sub) Standard Times.

-----------------------

Looks like Jesse Jackson is on TILT again.  It seems that he Little League team that won the Little League World Series had violated one of the rules by recruiting players from outside their designated area and once again,  adults have screwed up a kid's game.  ANYWAY, Jesse Jackson is up in arms and is pointing out that this is pure and simple RACISM. He said that the kids were being punished for the adults breaking the rules and it was because they were black.

DAMN!  I hate to say that Jesse may be right...... so I won't.  This RACE   HUSTLING  BOOB hasn't had a correct thought about anything in years.  According to him and Al Sharpton, RACISM is at the bottom of everything.

 

However, I might point out to Jesse, that the coaches knew the rules and I would wager that those kids also knew the rules as did their parents or parent (whichever fits).  But apparently rules mean nothing to Jesse and Al..... and apparently don't mean a hell of a lot to Barack.

-------------------

Well it looks like we have a new Secretary of Defense.  His name is ASH  CARTER.  I really don't know much about him other than his name sounds like he should be the villain on DAYS  OF  OUR  LIVES or one of those old soap operas.

--------------------------

FLASH!!! An article from the (Sub) Standard  Times:   UT (University of Texas) Investigates Fraternity Over DIVERSITY Complaints.  Evidently there was some costume party held by one of the fraternities and "Culture Costumes" were worn and evidently some got upset over the "INSENSITIVITY" shown by some of the attendees.  BUT, what caught my eye was that this tragic incident was being investigated by:  The University's DIVISION  OF  DIVERSITY  AND  COMMUNITY  ENGAGEMENT.   I am sure that most colleges and universities have such a group but I have never heard of one of these before.

 

HEY!  I have an idea, why don't we have a Federal Bureau Of Diversity And Community Engagement and put MARIE  HARF in charge of same?  Perhaps she could be as efficient at that job as she is at her present position.

----------------------

In one of the above paragraphs I mentioned John Browning.  Of course most of us know that he had the idea for the Model 1911 .45 semi-auto pistol and the Browning Automatic Rifle.  But last week I watched a program and learned that he of course  patented the Browning Automatic Shotgun but also learned that he was the primary force behind the Winchester Model 97 pump shotgun and prior to that invented the first Lever Action Shotgun.  He had a hand in the design of the Browning .50 caliber machine gun and a number of other weapons which we still use today.  John Moses Browning was quite a man.

February 11th, 2015    WHAT IF

 

Wednesday - February 11, 2015

Greetings once again from The Jingoistic SUV Driving Second Amendment Supporting Xenophobes Of West Texas.

I finally got my computer problems fixed (I think) and was told that my desktop computer had contracted a virus, possibly from opening an attachment, so I am pretty careful regarding opening those things for a while.

WHAT IF:

 

Last week, I watched some really top notch old movies on various channels and looked at some photos of my old home town, Houston, Texas which were taken many years ago.  Now, while I have not seen American Sniper yet, I must confess that I do not make many movies at the theaters but wait for them to appear on various movie channels. But I could not help but notice when comparing old movies from the 1940's and 1950's and 1960's to some of today's efforts, I fully realized how much times have changed.  I got to thinking..... WHAT  IF, in 1955 you were sitting in a high school government class or civics class or whatever your particular school called those classes  which basically covered  how our government was set up and how it was supposed to work,  and WHAT  IF  your teacher/instructor/professor told you that sixty years in the future,  the following situations would have happened or were happening at the time:

 

1)  The American People would have had at least three United States Presidents who were caught lying, some of  them on a regular basis and that one (Nixon) was forced to resign but the other two most notable (Clinton and Obama) received no more than a slap on the wrist (if that).

 

2)  The United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives had allowed the President to usurp his powers granted by the United States Constitution and completely disregard the separation of powers and pass laws by Executive Order which included the complete disregard of our immigration laws and opening our borders to literally hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to enter our country.

 

3)  That United States Diplomats and Security Officers were murdered at the hands of Muslim Terrorists and that additional security WAS  DENIED them by the State Department and that further the Secretary of State AND the President of the United States not only lied to the American People but also lied to the family members of those slain Americans by blaming some video rather than Islamic Terrorism.

 

4)  That the news media had been lying to the American People for years and had been CREATING news rather than reporting it.

 

5)  That POLITICAL  CORRECTNESS had for years been the driving force behind our government at every level.

 

6)  That we would see the Federal Government interfere with matters normally handled by the individual states and that the Federal Courts would force individual states to perform same sex marriages, which in many states were prohibited either by statute or State Constitutions.  And that  many of our elected officials, particularly at the federal level as well as many  Presidential appointees would  more Socialist in their beliefs than some of the Communists  back in the 1950's.

 

7)  That our National Anthem and or National Flag would be disrespected at practically every public event.

 

8)  That it would not be permissible to mention God or Christianity in our public schools BUT teaching the teachings of Mohammed would be acceptable in many districts.

 

9)  That at the biggest sporting event in America, on numerous occasions, commentators dwelt upon the GIRLFRIEND of one of the participants in the event was expecting the delivery of their child at any moment and that this fact was mentioned on numerous occasions.

 

10)  That American Citizens could be FORCED to purchase something by the Federal Government.

 

11)  That with terrorism and violence running wild all over the globe, the United States Government would be trying to tell the American People that the NUMBER  ONE problem facing not only America but the entire world was ... MANMADE  GLOBAL  WARMING.  And that this MANMADE  GLOBAL  WARMING was responsible for hotter than normal temperatures AND  colder than normal temperatures AND  drought  AND  extra heavy rains.

 

12)  That the United States would have incurred EIGHTEEN  TRILLION  DOLLARS in national debt and that NINE  TRILLION  DOLLARS of this debt have been incurred over the past six  years.

 

Of course, these are just a few of the items which would have caused us to believe that our Instructor/Teacher/Professor was a stark raving lunatic.  BUT  THEY  EITHER HAVE ALREADY  HAPPENED  OR  ARE  HAPPENING  RIGHT  NOW.

 

The question is........ WHAT  ARE  WE  GOING  TO DO  ABOUT IT?

MORE STUFF:

 

As I mentioned before, a couple of days back I watched two really great old movies, the first being "The Young Lions".  What a great cast and of course Marlon Brando and Montgomery Clift did their usual superb acting jobs.  But the actor whom I really thought played one of the best roles in this movie was Dean Martin.  Of course it was a serious role and I really thought Dean Martin was excellent.  Also the theme music from the movie was exceptionally good.  Years ago at the end of every half-time of a Hobbs Eagle football game, the Hobbs High School Band (which was really great) faced the home crowd and played "The Young Lions" and they did an exceptional job.

Then immediately following that movie an old favorite, "The Best Years Of Our Lives" was shown on the Turner Classic Movie Channel.  This is one of my all time favorites and it told a really great story of men returning home from WW II and the problems they faced and how they handled them.  Of course the cast was really outstanding:  Frederick March;  Myrna Loy (who I still believe was one of the most beautiful women ever);  Dana Andrews;  Teresa Wright and a guy named Harold Russell.   Harold Russell had lost both hands in WW II and played a sailor who was a double amputee.  It was the ONLY role he ever had AND that year (1946) he won TWO  ACADEMY  AWARDS.  One for the Best Supporting Actor and one Special Award for the work he had done for returning Veterans.  The only time that  has ever happened.
So, I will honor  those two GREAT  MOVIES  with  GREAT  PERFORMANCES by  EXCEPTIONAL  TALENT, by NOT  WATCHING this year's Academy Award Program.   I will be very surprised to see "American Sniper" win the Best Picture Award and I hope I can see the movie prior to the program.

------------------------------------

After scanning the sports page of the (Sub) Standard Times and noticing some of the legal problems facing NFL players, I thought it might save some print space if they printed the NAMES of the NFL PLAYERS WHO  HAVE  NOT  BEEN  ARRESTED  FOR  SOME  TYPE  OF  CRIMINAL  ACTIVITY.  I never cease to be amazed at how many of these athletes who are making well above what most of the employees in this country make and cannot act in a lawful manner and do some really uncalled for and stupid stuff.

--------------------------

OK.  Last week I mentioned that Kirsten Powers, a liberal FOX News Contributor, was pushing Jeb Bush as probably the best Presidential Candidate for the Republican Party.  Well this week I see where David Axelrod, a Liberal/Socialist/Democrat hack has also named Jeb Bush as a solid favorite to be the Republican Presidential Candidate.   OK, if Kirsten Powers AND David Axelrod favor Bush, then that's all I need to know to NEVER cast a vote for Jeb Bush.  Of course, Bush is a big proponent of Common Core and from everything I have read and heard about Common Core, I want NO  PART  of it AND I refuse to cast a vote for anyone in favor of this idiotic set of school standards.

 

I have made my mind up that if the Republican Candidate is Jeb Bush;  Rand Paul;  or Mike Huckabee that I will vote for every other position on the ballot but I  WILL  NOT EVER CAST  ANOTHER  VOTE  FOR  A  BAD  CANDIDATE  just because they are a Republican or NOT a Democrat/Progressive/Socialist.

--------------------------------

I will say this only once.  People who travel to the Middle East, regardless of their reasons, are subject to being the target of Muslim Terrorists and can look forward to a very unpleasant end.  I do not know all there is to know about the American girl Kayla Mueller and I know that her family is sad over hearing of her death but I still do not know the real reason for her travels to that dangerous part of the world.

TRAVEL  IN  LEBANON;  SYRIA;  PAKISTAN;  IRAQ;  YEMEN;  AND  ANY  OTHER  MIDDLE EASTERN OR NORTH AFRICAN COUNTRY  IS  EXTREMELY  DANGEROUS!

February 4th, 2015  WINNERS  /  LOSERS

 

Wednesday - February 4, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the West Texas Home For Jingoistic New England Patriot Fans.

 

I have been without a computer for about 5 days or so and so I will keep this one a bit short.

WINNERS:

 

The New England Patriots, who I am sure won by some method other than just by playing hard by the rules), and their fans.

 

People who believe that the Star Spangled Banner should be performed as either a Show Tune or a Hip-Hop Song.

(The reason these idiots won was due to the fact that the female who sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl completely butchered the song, so the idiots who do not understand either the meaning of the Anthem or what it represents)

 

People who have either very little or no taste in Half-Time Entertainment. (These idiots won because this years' Super Bowl Half-Time Show was pure horse crap).

 

ISIS/ISIL who seem to be able to do as they damn well please with very little consequences for their terrorist acts.

 

LOSERS:

 

Patriotic Americans who detest performers who ruin our National Anthem.

 

NBC who have once again done a horrible job of reporting probably the number one watched sporting event on the planet.

NFL Roger Goodell who not only showed what a really weak Commissioner he was by his pitiful dwelling on "Deflate Gate" just prior to the Super Bowl.

 

Real football fans all over the country who would enjoy watching a game without all of the pre-game idiocy that takes place beginning at least FIVE  HOURS prior to the game.

 

ANY  FOREIGN COUNTRY  WHO DEPENDS  UPON  AMERICAN  LEADERSHIP  IN  THE  FIGHT  AGAINST  ISLAMIC TERRORISTS.

MORE STUFF:

 

I have had several people comment that they are surprised to learn that I don't hold Rand Paul in very high regard.  If any of you have ever seen the play or better still the movie;  "Best Little Whorehouse In Texas" you will remember a scene in the movie in which the Governor, played by Charles Durning, did a little dance routine while singing a little song, "Oooooh, I Love To Dance A Little Sidestep", with the point being that he did not wish to make a decision regarding the closing of "Miss Mona's Chicken Ranch". I watched Rand Paul dance a little sidestep on several issues, with one being the legalization of drugs.  In my opinion, Rand Paul isn't that far removed from his Daddy, Ron Paul, whom you all may remember I thought was goofy.  It is not that both Ron and Rand don't have the occasional good idea but in the long run I think they both are not really very strong.

-------------------------

What I wanted to see after the Super Bowl when Commissioner Roger Goodell presented the Lombardi Trophy to Mr. Kraft, the owner of the New England Patriots, was for Mr. Kraft to get the trophy...... feel the metal football on top and tell Commissioner Goodell that he thought the ball was a bit soft.  But Mr. Kraft is a pretty darn classy guy... unlike some others with whom I am familiar.

----------------------------

Keep one thing in mind. Had the pass on the goal line been complete for a touchdown, the entire coaching staff of Pete Carroll would have been hailed as pure genius. And after watching the replay of that particular play at least 20 times, the ball was thrown accurately and had the Patriots' defensive back not have made a super play, it would have more than likely been a touchdown. I am not much of a Pete Carroll fan but I think he is taking a bunch of heat that is not deserved.

---------------------------

BUT, to top it off, I have heard so many different reasons why that particular play was called with the MOST  RIDICULOUS reason being that Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, while being a black player, was more clean cut than running back Marshawn Lynch, and had Lynch scored the touchdown the MVP award would have gone to him, so the Commissioner and the Seahawks coaching staff wanted Russell Wilson to be the Most Valuable Player..... THIS  WAS ACTUALLY PRESENTED AS A POSSIBLE  REASON  FOR  THE  PLAY  CALL.

Let's see now.... Russell Wilson was more CLEAN  CUT  than was Marshawn Lynch. I have seen workers on a prison chain gang who were more CLEAN  CUT  looking than Marshawn Lynch. Katrina flood victims were more CLEAN  CUT  looking than Marshawn Lynch.  And I feel sure that PUNXSUTAWNEY  PHIL has a higher IQ and better command of the English Language than does Lynch.  Hell of a running back but a real boob.

January 28th, 2015  EXPLAIN  /  RULES

 

 

Wednesday -  January 28, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the Primary Headquarters For Jingoist, Racist ,Xenophobic, Homophobic, Cowardly, SUV Drivers Of West Texas.  All of these descriptive terms are what we are told drive the lives of Conservative Small Government Americans.

 

EXPLAIN:

 

I wish someone would explain to me how the President of the United States can pass on attending an event which was attended by the great majority of the other world leaders..... BUT..... give an interview to some idiot YouTube fool in the person of GloZell Green. Who is GloZell Green, you ask? Up until it was broadcast that she had been granted an interview at the White House with the world's most articulate and intelligent human, I had no idea who or what a GloZell Green was.  Then they began showing some of her videos which as they say have,  GONE  VIRAL.  I saw a portion of her now famous video where she took a bath in a tub full of milk and fruit loops.  Then they showed one of her experiments with a face full of cinnamon which was damn near as pointless as her fruit loop bath.

 

Anyway,  she  appears to have a command of the English language rivaling that of "Buckwheat" in the old "Little Rascals" films. She is probably the only black female to ever enter the White House with an ass at least as large as Michelle's. She appears to possess the intelligence of an unsoaked pinto bean.  So I guess, basically, what I am saying is that while she is dumber than a rock, she fit right in with the rest of the White House staff.

 

Explain to my why anyone on the planet would pay any attention to Democrat Strategist Hack, Kirstin Powers' opinion on whom would be the best Republican Candidate to run for President in 2016. She was asked this question by Bill O'Reilly and in her keen observation of the Republican Party she arrived at the conclusion that JEB  BUSH  would be the best Republican candidate in 2016. I am sure that Ms. Powers and many other Democrats/Progressives/Socialists would like to see Jeb Bush as the Republican candidate.  I can only hope that the Republican Party does not have this view on a potential candidate for 2016.

 

I read a couple of articles AND saw several reports on TV that the Obama Administration are sending Democrat/Progressive/Socialist operatives to Israel on U.S. Tax dollars to work against the election of Benjamin Netanyahu.  I believe that they are disguising this as a get out to vote effort but even at that, what business do left wing activists have in doing anything in the Israeli election process?

 

Explain to me how almost every single person or group in the Middle East who has the backing of the Obama Administration either turns out to be RADICAL  MUSLIMS or COMPLETELY WEAK AND UNABLE  TO  CONTROL  THEIR REGION?

 

And people can actually wonder why many Americans have NO  CONFIDENCE in Barack Hussein Obama.

 

RULES:

 

I have watched every idiotic sports reporter on television and listened to every idiotic sports reporter on radio and read the reports of the great majority of the idiotic sports reporters in the printed media and in my opinion they should all be "Flogged Throughout The Fleet". This was a harsh punishment in the old British Navy but might not be harsh enough for these boobs.

 

I have heard way more than enough on the so called "DEFLATE GATE SCANDAL". I do not claim to know all the facts involved in this so called INVESTIGATION but I strongly imagine it has more to do with New England Patriots Coach, Bill Belichick being despised by the media scum than it does with any actual wrongdoing.  AH, but we are told by these sports idiots AND many of the FOX News program hosts that... "It would not be as big of a story had not Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots not had ... "A  LONG  HISTORY OF  BREAKING  THE  RULES".  And they immediately go into the re-hashing of the so called "SPY GATE" story when the Patriots and Coach Belichick were fined by the NFL for video taping opposing teams'  signals on the sidelines during a game.

 

OK.  For years, probably more years than I have on this earth, in baseball,  coaches and managers and employees of the various teams have been stealing signals from either the catcher or one of the base coaches for the entire game.  Now I don't know if that is a rules violation or not but it has certainly been no secret.  I am also not sure what the rules are about stealing signals in the NFL.  BUT, the point is that when it was discovered, the Patriots admitted to stealing the opponents' sideline signals and the team and Coach Belichick paid a heavy fine.  AH, but Megyn Kelly seems to think that bringing up this old incident should go towards proving the guilt of Coach Belichick and the Patriots in the deflated balls.

 

Funny thing is that I have watched a couple of former quarterbacks say that they couldn't really tell any difference in a ball with 13 pounds PSI from a ball with 11 pounds PSI.  Also many of these so called INVESTIGATIVE  REPORTERS said that after Bill Belichick's first statement to the press that he had "Thrown Quarterback Tom Brady UNDER  THE  BUS." Funny, I watched his first interviews and did not get that impression.

 

Then I watched one of the guys on one of the ESPN stations make the statement that Belichick had a history of breaking the rules AND of "PUSHING  THE  SUBSTITUTION RULES  TO  THE  LIMITS."  I am sorry, but "PUSHING  TO  THE  LIMITS" any of the rules is not the same as breaking the rules.  What this idiot was referring to was when Bill Belichick substituted an eligible  receiver  into the lineup to play a position which was normally held by an ineligible receiver.  THIS  IS  LEGAL  PROVIDING  THAT  THE  PLAYER  ADVISES  THE  OFFICIALS  OF  THIS  POSITION  CHANGE. Belichick has done this and it evidently confused some of the rocket scientists on the defense which caused a defender to try and cover an ineligible receiver.  Perfectly legal and he is not the first nor will he be the last to use this deception.

 

I guess what this mental giant was saying was that  Bill Belichick, by confusing the defense, was somehow cheating.  Well, Coach Belichick, if that is the case then we better not see you running:

1) A play-action pass

2) A draw play

3) A reverse

4) A screen pass

5) An on side kick

6) A fake punt

7) A fake field goal

OR  ANY  OTHER  TYPE  PLAY  WHICH  TENDS  TO  CONFUSE  THOSE MENTAL  GIANTS  ON  DEFENSE.

 

As I stated last week..... MUCH  ADO  ABOUT  NOTHING.  In fact I am pretty well convinced that this whole silly business is meant to get the players and coaches for the New England Patriots to concentrate on something other than playing the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl.

 

Belichick is hated by the media which pretty well brings him up to the top of the mountain in my books.  Keep in mind,  here is a group who hate Bill Belichick BUT are enamored with Barack Hussein Obama.

"If the Republicans do finally decide to nominate somebody who stands for something, and who has a track record of succeeding in achieving what he set out to do, then no one fits that bill better than Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin, who has put an end to government employee unions' racket of draining the taxpayers dry with inflated salaries and extravagant pensions.".................. THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"Surely we can think ahead enough to realize that children living in this country illegally are going to grow up and have children of their own, with cultures and values of their own -- and ethnic leaders to promote discontent and hostility if they don't get as good results as people who have the prevailing American culture, beginning with the English language....... You can't wish that away by saying the magic word DIVERSITY -- not after we have seen what DIVERSITY has led to in Europe."................... THOMAS  SOWELL 

 

"What do you do if someone pulls a gun on you or is robbing a store and you stop them?  I don't want to hear about this hands-up crap.  That's not what happened.  I don't know exactly what did happen, but I know that's not what happened.  This policeman's life is ruined.  Why? Because we have to break somebody down.  Because we have to even out the game.  I don't know.  I don't get it.  Maybe I'm just old-fashioned." .....  MIKE  DITKA

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK  HENRY

MORE STUFF:

 

Many years ago I had a Public Defender come to the Police Station with a complaint which she wished to lodge against me.  It was my first encounter with this brand new Public Defender who had been an attorney almost all day.  Anyway, her complaint was that,  "I  HAD  FOOLED  HER  CLIENT."  It was hard not to laugh in her face but she was dead serious.  SO, I asked her how she had arrived at this momentous conclusion.  So she related who her client was and how I had "FOOLED  HIM."

 

After listening to her idiotic complaint I advised her that for years one of the duties of a policeman was to FOOL  CRIMINALS.  I told her that I had FOOLED quite a few and if I had my wishes I would FOOL a few more before retirement.  She was pretty much laughed out of the office.

  

SO, I guess that this puts me in the same category as Bill Belichick since we are both apparently guilty of FOOLING  THE  OPPOSITION.

 

AS I said, Much Ado About Nothing.

----------------------------

A week or so back I had the oil changed in my wife's car.  I had it done at the dealership and of course they check all the fluid levels as well as the pressure in the tires.  I noticed that everything was fine and that the tire pressure was 32 pounds PSI.  This was on a warm afternoon. After my wife drove the car a couple of days and pulled it into our garage, the weather turned much colder.  My wife advised me that there was a light on showing some type of problem.  I checked and noticed that the low tire  pressure light was on so I checked the pressure and found that one tire had 29 pounds and the other three had 28 pounds. The temperature inside our garage was 47 degrees.  SO, I fired up my compressor and put about 36 pounds in each tire and that was all I needed to fix that problem.

 

The point is, somehow ALL  FOUR  TIRES had lost approximately 3 to 4 pounds of air pressure.  I attributed the pressure loss to the drastic change in temperature.  BUT, after giving this matter some serious thought, I have come to the conclusion that Bill Belichick or Tom Brady or perhaps Mr. Kraft had sent someone down to San Angelo, Texas and deflated the tires in my wife's vehicle.

 

Thank GOD that the NFL has wasted time and money on their  DEFLATE-GATE investigation and thank GOD that ESPN and FOX News and everyone else have kept the DEFLATE-GATE crap going for over a week now.

 

And I must tell all of you that Troy Aikman has... as we say in West Texas..... crapped in his saddle blanket with his idiotic take on this whole matter.

---------------------

Last week end I did get to watch one of my all time favorite movies on the TCM Channel.  INHERIT THE  WIND. A great cast and a great story.  Of course other than his last couple of movies, I have to say that Spencer Tracy  was as good as it gets when it comes to actors.  One of his old movies from the 50's  was BAD  DAY  AT  BLACK  ROCK which also had Robert Ryan, Lee Marvin,  Ernest Borgnine, Walter Brennan,  Dean Jagger, and Anne Francis.  I also watched one of the truly great Science-Fiction movies from the  1950's,  FORBIDDEN  PLANET,  which also starred Anne Francis along with Leslie Nielsen,  Walter Pidgeon, Warren Stevens, Jack Kelly, and Earl Holliman.  Really well done and great special effects, especially for the times.

 

I do have the desire to see American Sniper in intend on doing so after the crowds subside somewhat.

January 21st, 2015  HOME / ABROAD

 

Wednesday -  January 21, 2015

 

Greetings once again from the West Texas Home For Jingoistic Xenophobic Homophobic Islamaphobic Right Wing Racial Profiling Extremists Anonymous.  I  suppose we better get a support group since all of the above names are what the Liberals/Progressives/Democrats/Socialists call us.

 

HOME:

 

According to the world's most articulate and intelligent human and his band of incompetent, lying followers, things just could not be better here on the home front.  Other than our country being more racially and economic  level divided to augment the absolute political ignorance of many Americans, I suppose one could stretch the truth and agree that things here are just as they should be.

And to tell you the truth, I would be in a complete state of shock if things were not just as they are, taking into consideration the incompetence and complete lack of honesty of the ENTIRE Obama Administration.

 

They have been telling us that our Southern Border is more secure than at any other time in the past.  They have been telling us that the Affordable Health Care Act (ObamaCare) has worked even better than originally planned. They have told us that  the so called "Middle Class" has increased.  They have blamed every single negative economic problem on.... you guessed it..... George Bush.

 

They have released Muslim Terrorists from the facility at Guantanamo and told us that by sending them to Yemen, they would cease to be a problem to our country and all the while Yemen is a nest of Islamic Terrorists who have planned and carried out acts of terrorism throughout the globe.

 

They have emasculated our Military to the point of ineffectiveness.

 

They have created a whole segment of our American society who are stupid enough to still believe race hustlers like Al Sharpton and Eric Holder.

 

Then, last evening in his State of the Union Address, Barack Obama kept trying to tell us that our economy and jobs were at an all time high.  One little item seems to have escaped his keen observation, however. And that would be the fact that under his inept administration, our National Debt is now over EIGHTEEN  TRILLION, $18,000,000,000,000.00,  DOLLARS.

 

Also in listening to the lies spouted off by the world's most articulate and intelligent human, I seemed to have thought back and remembered much of his speech was a bunch of recycled crap... for those of you who voted for Nancy Pelosi and reside in the People's Republic of San Francisco that means that he repeated damn near everything he spoke about.  Basically, what I got out of his speech was that he was going to raise taxes AND VETO any legislation of which he did not approve especially any legislation that would chip away at his signature Executive Orders.

 

AH, but we were treated to a woman, who was obviously a plant, seated next to Michelle, who had allegedly written Obama praising his policies for she and her family being able to own a home and enjoy the fruits of their labor.  Of course, they neglected to inform us that this woman  is a former worker for the Democrat Party and according to one report I heard had done this kind of thing in the past.

THE  TRUTH  MEANS  NOTHING TO THESE  PEOPLE!

 

At this point in the Obama regime, what has he or any of his followers done which would entice ANY  OF  US  to believe  ANY  STATISTICAL  INFORMATION regarding our economy or jobs or anything else, for that matter.

 

ABROAD:

 

If you think that the Domestic Policies of this band of thieves is a mess, just  take a look at  the Obama Foreign Policies.... or rather a lack of same.

 

They have not only refused to address some really major problems with our State Department, but have lied and taken part in cover ups at a record pace.  They have still not come up with a believable excuse for the MURDER of our Ambassador and American Security personnel in Benghazi.  I know this is a couple of years old but the American people still have not been told the truth regarding these MUSLIM  TERRORIST  ATTACKS.

 

Then just within the past two weeks when MUSLIM  TERRORISTS  murdered the cartoonists of the French magazine along with some other innocent people at a local grocery store,  the Obama Administration has still refused to place the blame where it belongs. Then Obama did not send a high ranking member of his Administration to the Solidarity Demonstration in Paris.  NO, after the fact he sends Secretary of State, John Kerry over to hug the French President and what makes the United States look even weaker and less in touch, Kerry carries with him, singer James Taylor.  Then to top it off, James Taylor sings the song "You've Got A Friend", to top off this "Hug Fest".  All in all,  our government looked really weak and really stupid. Also,  while I think James Taylor has a good voice and plays the guitar really well, this exhibition of foolishness by our government should have been an embarrassment to the Obama Administration.

 

Had our idiot President asked me to go over with a singer to placate the French President, I would have had to substitute another performer for James Taylor.  I would have chosen Jerry Jeff Walker, accompanied by Gary P. Nunn and the Lost Gonzo Band and would have had them perform the old Ray Wiley Hubbard classic:  "UP  AGAINST  THE WALL REDNECK  MOTHER".  But I guess that might be a good reason that I was not chosen ahead of John Kerry...... well that and the fact that I might not have been able to resist the temptation to tell the world's most articulate and intelligent human to STICK IT WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE.

 

While we are on the subject of the Obama Foreign Policy, we have been told that Yemen is our staunch ally in the Middle East and that is one reason why damn near every single prisoner released by Obama from Guantanamo has been released to Yemen.  Then just within the past 24 hours we learn that there is a rebellion in Yemen conducted by the Shiite Muslims. And it is also of interest that the Muslim Country with the largest population of Shiites is.... you guessed it ....  IRAN.  And of course the world's most articulate and intelligent human is working on some type of nuclear agreement with Iran and I doubt seriously if we will come out well in that exchange. AND of course Obama has threatened to VETO any legislation which would impose sanctions on Iran as well as any legislation which would go against his Amnesty edict.

 

SO, I am predicting that we will not see any changes in our stature in the world for the next two years. Russia will continue to spit in our face;  The Muslim Terrorists will continue to do as they damn well please; ISIS will continue to gain ground in Syria and Iraq if we continue our present weak responses.

 

OUR  foreign policy is either  exceptionally weak or non-existent and I strongly imagine a touch of both.

"Many fine people have come here from Mexico.  But, as with any other group, some are just the opposite.  With open borders, however, we don't even know how many people who cross that border are Mexican, much less anything more relevant, like their education, diseases,  criminal records  or terrorist ties.".............................

MORE STUFF:

 

OK.  Several years ago I wrote a disclaimer that said that I WAS  NOT  THE FATHER OF ANNA NICHOLE SMITH'S  BABY.

Then later I wrote a disclaimer that I DID NOT WATCH  THE  GOLDEN  GLOBE AWARDS.

Then I had to assure everyone that I  DID  NOT  WATCH  THE  ACADEMY  AWARDS.

Still later on I had to disavow any RECOGNITION  OF  THE  PHONY  AFRICAN HOLIDAY,  KWANZAA.

Now I feel as if I must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that I  DID  NOT  FLY TO FOXBORO, MASSACHUSETTS THIS PAST WEEK END AND  LET  THE  AIR  OUT OF THE FOOTBALLS  USED  BY  THE NEW  ENGLAND  PATRIOTS.

 

Here is what I did observe about the game between the New England Patriots and the Indianapolis Colts:

 

New England was way more prepared for this AFC  Championship than was Indianapolis.

Tom Brady was way more experienced in Championship Play than was Andrew Luck.

I don't believe that the football, deflated or not, had any bearing on the rushing attack of the New England Patriots

I don't believe that the football, deflated or not, had  any bearing on the inability of the Colts to mount any type of offensive attack.

 

I know that the media doesn't like Bill Belichick which is one of the main reasons that I DO LIKE  HIM.  He is not the all time winningest coach in post season play, eclipsing Dallas Cowboy Coach Tom Landry because of his likeability, but rather for being prepared and preparing his team for big games.

 

NOW, since I disavow any knowledge of the much ado about nothing deflated ball story, I feel like I must also tell the world that I had nothing to do with the complete meltdown of the Green Bay Packers last Sunday.  The Packers had that baby won and did some really stupid stuff which allowed the Seattle Seahawks to come from behind and win the NFC Championship.

I am looking forward to the Super Bowl and I believe that the two best teams are in it.

-------------------------------

Do y'all remember back in the 1970's when the HIPPIES were running wild in America?  Remember when all of the great unwashed generation ALL claimed to be NON-CONFORMIST? Yet when you really observed them closely you realized that all of the girls looked and dressed and talked with amazing similarity? Then you looked at the male of the species and found that they dressed,  spoke,  and looked even more similar? SO, tell me,  what was so damned NON-CONFORMIST  about those bozos?

NOW, we have the Americans and Europeans who are going to the Middle East and growing a beard and letting their hair grow long and attempting to act exactly like their Middle Eastern Muslim compadres. Seems like a giant step backward. Where are those 1970's Hippies now, you ask? Most of them are in Washington, D.C.

-----------------------

God help us all if we sit back and let Karl Rove and the Beltway Republican Establishment choose our next presidential candidate.

--------------------------

Also, while I think John Boehner is a varmint, inviting Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before a Joint Session of Congress makes me appreciate him a bit more.

January 14th, 2015  SPARE ME

 

Wednesday -  January 14,2015

 

Hello once more from the Primary Headquarters For Jingoistic Fed Up Four Wheel Drive Operating Firearms Owners Of West Texas.

 

SPARE ME:

 

To all of the members of the News Media and to all of the Politicians and to all of the members of the White House Staff:

 

Please refrain from your unnecessary reminder that  ALL  MUSLIMS  ARE  NOT  RADICALIZED. It is getting plenty old when any reporter or politicians, particularly members of the gang of Obama Incompetents, must constantly remind us all when speaking of Muslim Terrorists or acts of Terrorism performed by followers of the Islamic faith that "ONLY  A  SMALL PERCENTAGE OF MUSLIMS ARE MEMBERS OF TERRORIST  ORGANIZATIONS."

 

Actually, this all started during the first Presidential term of George W. Bush when he made many statements that "Islam is a Religion of Peace".  I didn't buy it back then and I do not buy it now.  And I really don't believe that President George Bush believed it.

 

ALSO, let me make it perfectly clear that I personally DO  NOT  BELIEVE that any of these so called "Peaceful Marches" to show SOLIDARITY of the Non-Muslim world do one bit of good.  I believe that the Muslim Terrorists view this as a sign of WEAKNESS.

 

NOW, while I do not believe that the huge gathering in Paris to show "SOLIDARITY" with the people of France did one thing to diminish the danger of Muslim Terrorist Acts, I do believe that the United States should have at least had a high ranking official of the Obama Administration present.  I understand that the pure VARMINT Attorney General, Eric Holder, was in Paris at the time but had to address some group and then had to catch a flight back to the U.S. Of course I also understand that he went to and came home from France on a U.S. Government aircraft so he could have possibly showed up.... although I don't know if he would have been allowed by his master to show any behavior which might be viewed negatively by The Nation of Islam.

 

I also wondered why at least our bucket headed Secretary of State, John Kerry, could not have been in attendance. But then I learned that Kerry had to attend a very important meeting to discuss "Global Warming" with some ecological sensitive group.  Then later in the evening I watched some idiot Democrat/Socialist strategist tell FOX News that Global Warming was probably the MOST  IMPORTANT  ISSUE  on the agenda at this particular time and the in some convoluted manner, GLOBAL  WARMING  could be one of the prime causes of TERRORIST  ATTACKS.  I had never seen this idiot before and do not remember hearing his name or he would be added to the Varmint List.

 

Then I wondered why Vice President Joe Biden was not sent but then the thought came to mind that Vice President Biden was probably assigned to a very important mission by the world's most articulate and intelligent human.  I decided that Vice President Biden was more than likely devoting all of his efforts and intelligence trying to solve a problem which has been troubling the American public for years. What problem is that... you ask? OK, here it is:

 

Goofy (a dog), is Mickey Mouse's best friend;

Pluto (a dog), is Mickey Mouse's pet;

 

SO, since Goofy and Pluto are both dogs.... why is Goofy able to talk but Pluto isn't.

 

Inquiring minds want to know and it sure seems to me as if this assignment absolutely is tailor made for someone as useful and intelligent as Joe Biden.

 

I have watched a whole bunch of experts give their take on the killings committed by Muslim Terrorist in France.  And I agreed with some and disagreed with others.

BUT, I do feel this set of facts have to be viewed as pretty strong contributing factors;

France has an OPEN  BORDER policy and have allowed Muslims to enter their country WITHOUT requiring them to obey the norms of the French society.  They have allowed these intruders to settle in, so called "NO  GO  ZONES", and to pretty much disregard French Law and operate under Sharia Law.  This appears to be the situation also in Great Britain as well as some other European Countries.  SO, why should it surprise ANYONE that Muslim Extremists who are committed to terrorist acts against ALL  NON-MUSLIMS should kill innocent people at will.

 

Also, please do not try to convince me that those people who were brutally murdered at that French Publication were JOURNALISTS.  Please do not try to convince me that most people employed by many of our national and international news agencies are JOURNALISTS.  Publishing satirical cartoons is not JOURNALISM in my opinion. CREATING  THE  NEWS  is not JOURNALISM either. And while I think that that publication had every right to publish satirical cartoons  without the fear of being murdered, I do not view that particular publication as a real news outlet.  Also, I have received several e-mails with the cartoons which evidently were super offensive to the Nation of Islam and fail to see where any of them warranted the death of any of the employees of the publication.

 

AND speaking about someone who has been called a JOURNALIST for years, although I don't see how, I saw where that goofy broad Christiane Amanpour referred to the two Muslim Terrorist brothers as "ACTIVISTS". And still, another so called JOURNALIST on one report referred to the BLACK  ISLAMIC  TERRORIST  IN  FRANCE AS AN .... "AFRICAN  AMERICAN".  Now just how in the Hell is the term "AFRICAN  AMERICAN"  remotely accurate?

 

And of course there was one so called "JOURNALIST" that I viewed on one of the News Channels made the statement that Saudi Arabia was "ONE  OF  OUR  BEST,  IF NOT  THE  BEST  ALLIES  IN  THE  MIDDLE  EAST." Now if you want to believe that Saudi Arabia is our friend, then please spare me that opinion.

 

And once again,  please SPARE ME all the talk about our U.S. Border with Mexico being SAFER  THAN  AT  ANY  TIME  IN  THE  PAST.

 

The Obama Administration is, in my opinion, weak on fighting terrorism and I fear that  we are in for another  attack inside our border.  It might be about time for the Republican controlled  HOUSE  AND  SENATE  to get off their asses and start passing some legislation that will protect our country... or better still.... put the pressure on the White House to just enforce our existing laws.

 

Also, I have heard the figure at somewhere between 6% and 10% of the population of France are Muslim.  I saw one figure that the total Muslim population of France was placed at a little over SIX  MILLION which would make it closer to the 10% figure.  SO, if 90% of the French people are willing to live in fear of some of the 10% of their population then their goose is cooked.

 

Also, it is one Hell of a deal when the President of Egypt shows more courage about Islamic Terrorism than does the President of the United States.

QUOTES:

 

"President Barack Obama's absence from the great gathering in Paris of national leaders from other countries, to show their solidarity with France in its opposition to Islamic terrorists, was another sign of the Obama administration's continuing irresolution in the face of terror.... Even the recent courageous message of Egypt's president, Abdel-Fattah el Sisi, calling on his fellow Muslims around the world to revolutionize the interpretation of Islam, to make it more compatible with peaceful relations with other peoples, put no steel in the spine of Barack Obama."................ THOMAS  SOWELL 

 

"Not even the movement of the world's biggest sponsor of terrorism -- Iran -- toward  building a nuclear bomb has caused the Obama administration to change its vision of the world.  For Obama, the question has never been how to stop Iran from going nuclear, but how to stop Israel from stopping Iran from going nuclear.............  THOMAS  SOWELL

 

"The day will come when it will be recognized without doubt throughout the civilized world that the strangling of Bolshevism at birth would have been an untold blessing to the human race.".......... WINSTON  CHURCHILL

 

"Leftists -- They are the most disagreeable of people.... Their insincerity?  Can you not feel a sense of disgust at the arrogant presumption of superiority of these people? Superiority of intellect!  Then, when it comes to practice,  down they fall with a wallop not only to the level of ordinary human beings but to a level which is even far below the average."............  WINSTON  CHURCHILL

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.".....

MORE STUFF:

 

Why is it that in almost every sporting event, particularly on televised football games at every level fro High School through the NFL, that each televised game has at least one female, on the sidelines or outside a dressing room with a microphone, asking perhaps the stupidest questions known to man?  Almost all the questions are the same each and every game and are generally answered by a coach who has absolutely no intention of letting this female know what is really being planned.

 

I noticed it in each and every televised Texas State Championship game.  Every single game in every classification was shown in its entirety except for the two divisions of the Class A (Six-Man) games. That was a total of 10 State Championship games.  Now, perhaps the faces changed but the stupidity of the questions and the predictability of the answers remained consistent.

Now I don't care if it is a man or a woman asking stupid questions, it detracts from the game.  But for some reason, every one of the girls on the sidelines in practically every level of televised football sound like Chip an' Dale arguing over walnuts in a Donald Duck cartoon.  They all have little high voices and talk so rapidly that sometimes they are difficult to understand. HEY! I have an idea!  Cut all of the Pre-Game;  Half-Time;  and Post-Game interviews and opinions.  AND at half-time, let us see and hear the Fighting Texas Aggie Marching Band.
Anyway, this season is almost over with only the Conference Championships and Super Bowls left. Ohio State showed last night that they were probably the best team in the country at the college level.... well at least in the Division I. North Dakota State won their FOURTH  STRAIGHT FCS Championship.  North Dakota State has a heck of a football program and have beaten some really good teams to win FOUR  CHAMPIONSHIPS in a row.

-----------------------

I know that many of you will be a bit surprised to learn that I love poetry.  I don't like all poems but there are a number that I do like and have read many times.  I have probably a dozen or more books of poetry and am amazed at the beauty and the description put down on paper by some of these brilliant people.  I guess my favorite poet is Rudyard Kipling who wrote countless poems, many about the British Army as in Fuzzy Wuzzy and Gunga Din.

Last week I was going over some of Mr. Kipling's writings and came across one of my very favorite poems by this amazing man.  It is 10 verses and although it was easy to read, I had read it many times without really understanding what Mr. Kipling was telling us.  Mr. Kipling wrote the poem "THE  GODS  OF  THE  COPYBOOK HEADINGS" in 1919 after he had lost his son in World War I. The "Copybook Headings" refer to proverbs or sayings printed in perfect handwriting at the top of the pages in a 19th century school child's notebook.  The object of the exercise was to produce good handwriting by making the student copy out the heading phrase over and over again until he/she formed each letter perfectly.  While the producers of these books were not particularly interested in teaching moral values, which were normally taught at home, the proverbs were ones which we all would recognize.

 

And finally, after years of reading this poem, several years ago it finally dawned upon me that Mr. Kipling had a really valuable message in this poem.  Here are a couple of verses. See if they don't appear to fit what is happening to our civilization:

 

Then the Gods of the Market tumbled and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew

And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true

That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four

And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more.

 

As it will be said in the future, it was at the birth of Man

There are only four things certain since Social Progress began

That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire

And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wobbling back to the Fire

 

And that after this is accomplished and the brave new world begins

When all men are  paid  for existing  and no man must pay for his sins

As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn

The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return.

 

These are the last three verses in the poem. And they make more sense to me now that I have looked at our society and how our moral compass has been shattered.  And I particularly liked the line when Mr. Kipling in 1919 talks about ALL  MEN  ARE  PAID  FOR  EXISTING.

I believe just within the past couple of days, President Barack Hussein Obama revealed to us that he has a plan where everybody can attend a Community College AT  GOVERNMENT  EXPENSE. And just look at our welfare roles and how may American Citizens AND  even people who ARE  NOT  American Citizens are PAID  FOR  EXISTING.  Perhaps Mr. Kipling's works should receive more attention.

--------------------------------

I receive a monthly publication from Fort Concho here in San Angelo.  It has some news about coming events and always some history about past U.S. Presidents or about the Cavalry units that were stationed here during the Indian Wars. It normally has one page about old weapons used in the past as well as photos of recent events at the fort.  This particular publication had an article on Air Guns and of course told of the Air Gun which was carried on the Lewis and Clark expedition.  The article further said that air guns were used as far back as 125 A.D. It also told of the progress of air guns  BUT  stopped before  the invention of THE  GREATEST  AIR  GUN  EVER  MADE.  And if you are an old dude near my age you know that I am speaking of the DAISY  RED  RYDER  RANGE  RIFLE.  Now I have owned in the past AND own now air rifles and pistols which shoot at a much higher velocity and the old Daisy Red Ryder;  and  most  of them shoot a variety of projectiles;  BUT when the dreaded Boat Tailed Grackle  decides to raid your wife's bird feeder, nothing can replace the old Daisy Red Ryder.  If you should miss, it generally will not damage anything, of course you must be aware of your surroundings. BUT there is no telling what Lewis and Clark could have accomplished had they possessed a Daisy Red Ryder Range Rifle.

--------------------------------------

And, remember that it is reported that there are 1,619,314,00 (that is one billion, six hundred nineteen million, three hundred fourteen thousand) Muslims in the world.  And if the 10% they say are radicalized then that means we only have 161,931,400 (one hundred sixty one million, nine hundred thirty one thousand, four hundred) to worry about.

January 6th, 2015  OBSERVATIONS / SUGGESTIONS

 

WEDNESDAY - January 7, 2015

 

Greetings for the New Year from the Cold Jingoistic Fossil Fuel Burning Firearms Owning Fed Up With Politics West Texans.

 

As you probably noticed, I have not been on line for a while. My computer quit on me on about December 28th and I did not get it back until a few days ago. I have been going through stuff and deleting a whole bunch of photos and videos in order to make room for new stuff this year.

 

OBSERVATIONS:

 

Of course my observations are generally made from a very CONSERVATIVE view and many might no be shared by a great many folks.

 

I have, however, observed that the present occupant of the White House has continued to lie and violate his oath of office on a regular basis. We have heard him make statements and then within a few days completely deny making those statements. We have also observed that his cabinet and appointees have not fallen far behind him in the area of being untruthful to the American People.

 

We have observed the House of Representatives pass legislation only to have it blocked by Harry Reid in the U.S. Senate. We have further observed that the mainstream media AND the Obama Administration lay the blame completely on the U.S. House of Representatives. AND, while I do not have a very high regard for House Speaker John Boehner, the lion's share of the blame for lack of meaningful legislation must lie squarely on the shoulders of Barack Hussein Obama and the then Democrat controlled U.S. Senate.

 

We have observed the Justice Department under the direction of Eric Holder take sides in local matters in which they had no federal concern. HOWEVER, under the guidance of Race Pimps like Al Sharpton, the federal government has attempted to make racial, civil rights issues where NONE EXIST.

 

We have been told, ever since Barack Hussein Obama was elected that we were to be living in a "Post Racial Era". HOWEVER, it appears to me as if Obama and his band of merry men/women have made sure that racial divisions have increased just as they have attempted, and in many cases succeeded, to divide the American People by economic status, educational background, and regional places of residence as well as to increase racial tensions. This latest attempt to make ALL members of law enforcement a party to racial prejudice is just one example. As a career Police Officer, I will freely admit that I knew many black people whom I did not like at all; I also knew many Hispanic people whom I did not like at all; I knew some Asian people whom I did not like at all; BUT I probably knew at least as many Caucasian people for who I had absolutely no use. Just because there were people from many different racial and ethnic backgrounds that I did not care for in the least, that does not make me a racist nor did it influence my decisions when dealing with people from different backgrounds and social status.

 

When I see a group of protesters storming into a public building chanting:

"Hands Up, Don't Shoot"

or

"I Can't Breathe"

or, my personal favorite

"What Do We Want? Dead Cops. When Do We Want Them? NOW."

 

And many of these protests were in San Francisco, CA; Oakland, CA; Portland, OR; and several other large metropolitan areas.

 

Then we observe some real Race Hustling Pimps claiming that these are PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATIONS and are a right guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution.

 

I am sure that I have a somewhat slanted view on things but: WHEN YOUR PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATION CAUSES ME TO:

 

1) Deviate from my desired course

2) Causes me to stop doing something that I want to do

3) Causes me to do something which I have no desire to do

4) Creates any problems for me or anyone else

 

THEN YOUR DEMONSTRATION IS NOT PEACEFUL, NOR IS IT PROTECTED BY THE CONSTITUTION. IT IS PURELY AND SIMPLY A NUISANCE! AND WHILE THIS MAY COME AS A SURPRISE TO MANY, IN MANY INSTANCES, BEING A NUISANCE CARRIES WITH IT..... DARE I SAY IT? CONSEQUENCES! 

 

So, our "Post Racial President" is really not any different from AL SHARPTON, JESSE JACKSON, and all the rest of the Race Hustling Pimps.

 

BUT, I fear that we are in for at least two more years of this act UNLESS the newly Republican Controlled House and Senate show some balls and begin to take back control of their respective areas and be more concerned with doing what is right than what is popular with the crowd inside the beltway.

 

SUGGESTIONS:

 

The first suggestion I have is directed to the newly elected U.S. Representatives and U.S. Senators. I would point out that:

 

1) YOU WERE NOT ELECTED BECAUSE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WERE HAPPY WITH THE DIRECTION OUR COUNTRY WAS HEADED.

2) YOU WERE NOT ELECTED TO FOLD AND COMPROMISE WITH THE DEMOCRATS/PROGRESSIVES/SOCIALISTS.

3) YOU WERE NOT ELECTED TO CARRY ON LEGISLATIVE BUSINESS AS USUAL.

4) YOU WERE NOT ELECTED TO GET A GOOD GRADE IN -"WORKS AND PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS".

5) YOU WERE ELECTED TO OPPOSE BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S POLICIES AND OVERRIDE THEM WHEN POSSIBLE!

 

It is time for the American People to hold their elected officials accountable for their actions AND if they do not perform as needed....REPLACE THEM!

 

It is time for Conservatives and Republicans who try to pass themselves off as Conservatives to STOP ACTING LIKE DEMOCRATS/PROGRESSIVES/SOCIALISTS.

 

It is time for the Republican Party ON THE NATIONAL LEVEL to NOT ALLOW THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA TO PICK THEIR PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE FOR 2016. As most of us know, they gave us John McCain and Mitt Romney who both got trounced by Barack Hussein Obama. And if they continue to go down that road, we can prepare for EIGHT YEARS OF HILLARY CLINTON. Personally, I had rather be pecked to death by a duck than endure eight years of this screeching heifer. (And perhaps I should apologize to heifers nationwide)

QUOTES:

 

"What matters today is how well you can concoct a story that fits people's preconceptions and arouses their emotions. Politicians like New York mayor Bill de Blasio, professional demagogues like Al Sharpton and innumerable irresponsible people in the media have shown that they have great talent in promoting a lynch mob atmosphere toward the police....... Grand juries that examine hard facts live in a different world from mobs who listen to rhetoric and politicians who cater to the mobs.".... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The death of Eric Garner has likewise spawned stories having little relationship to facts. The story is that Garner died because a chokehold stopped his breathing. But Garner did not die with a policeman choking him..... He died later, in an ambulance where his heart stopped. He had a long medical history of various diseases, as well as a long criminal history. No doubt the stress of his capture did not do him any good, and he might well still be alive if he had not resisted arrest. But that was his choice."........... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"If you are killed by an unarmed man, you are just as dead as if you had been annihilated by a nuclear bomb. But you don't even know who is armed or unarmed until after it is all over, and you can search him.".......... THOMAS SOWELL

 

"The media do not merely ignore facts, they suppress facts. Millions of people saw the videotape of the beating of Rodney King. But they saw only a fraction of that tape because the media left out the rest, which showed Rodney King -- another huge man -- resisting arrest and refusing to be handcuffed, so that he could be searched."....... THOMAS SOWELL

 

 

 "An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.... Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us....

MORE STUFF:

 

Last week I was watching one of the sports channels and they had one program on in which it had Peyton Manning wired for sound over a period of several games against various teams. I have always liked Peyton Manning and thought he showed a lot of class in various interviews and the way he carried himself both on and off the field. My opinion was reinforced after watching this program. Peyton Manning is a team player and when he screws up, he admits it and accepts blame rather than trying to shift it off on someone else. In one clip he got sacked, big time, by J.J. Watt of the Houston Texans. As Manning was getting up off the ground he turned to Watt and said, "Man, you got me good that time". When he got to the sidelines he told his coach, "That J.J. Watt only has one speed ... wide open." Then a little later they had a film on the football career of Doug Flutie. Of course, Flutie was something like 5'9" and many of the so called experts said he was TOO SHORT to make it in the NFL. His first season or so he did not do all that good so he went to Canada and won several CFL Championships, with Toronto, I believe. Then he returned to the NFL and played with several teams and did well with all of them. In addition, he and his wife were raising their son who suffers from autism. Doug Flutie is a first class man and just like Peyton Manning was a pure team player. Anyway it was pleasant to see great players who were not acting like they had performed a miracle when they scored. I guess the most emotion I saw from Doug Flutie was on his very last play as a New England Patriot. He drop-kicked an extra point which has not been seen in decades. Anyway, Peyton Manning and Doug Flutie are definite role models.

---------------------------------

One of the sports channels also showed a program reviewing the football careers of Gayle Sayers and Dick Butkus. Of course they were team mates with the Chicago Bears and were both drafted one after the other in the draft for their rookie seasons. Anyone who ever saw Butkus and Sayers play will certainly appreciate their careers. Of course both of them played during the years when the rules were much different and Butkus had both his knees ruined but still played on bad legs for several years. Sayers got a knee injury in either his third or fourth season and was lost for most of the year. BUT, the year he returned, he rushed for over 1,000 yards and his longest run of that season was 23 yards. Both Sayers and Butkus were tough as nails. Sayers said that in practice they went full speed. He said that Coach George Halas told him not to let up or Butkus would knock his ass off.... and he was right. Sayers only played for six years but was voted into the NFL Hall of Fame on his first year of eligibility.

I watched a news program last night and saw where a retired New York City Police Officer had his concealed carry handgun confiscated by the Sheriff's Department. Evidently this man had gone to the hospital emergency room because he was suffering from..... now get ready for this...... INSOMNIA. For those of you currently residing in the People's Republic of San Francisco, that means he was having problems sleeping. Evidently in the State of New York if you seek medical help your medical records are sent to various outlets. But this man had problems falling asleep. I know a number of people who have that same problem. But evidently in New York, it is considered some type of mental disorder which prohibits you from owning a handgun, at least that was what was reported.

 

BUT, I don't know why this should surprise any of us. New York City has a Mayor who has seen fit by passing an executive decisions that the NYPD Officers can no longer do a pat down search for weapons, which incidentally allowed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Small wonder that Bill de Blasio is on the VARMINT LIST.

-----------------------------------

 

Anyway it is good to have my computer back and I am glad that the New Year is here. I just hope it is an improvement over 2014. AND, incidentally, I have NO PROBLEMS at all in falling asleep.

December 24th, 2014  SURPRISES

 

 

WEDNESDAY - December 24, 2014

 

Greetings once more from a very Thankful West Texan.

 

SURPRISES:

 

The first surprise is that my rants this week will be rather short and to the point.

 

FIRST:  I want to wish each of you along with your families a very MERRY  CHRISTMAS.  And I have a sincere wish that they year 2015 will be better for all of us.

 

SECOND:  This surprise was maybe the best I have received in a long time. Our daughter drove all the way from Denver, Colorado in some pretty tough weather and driving conditions to spend Christmas with her Mom and Dad.  It came as a complete surprise to her Mother.  She did call me and let me know of her plans just to make sure we didn't take a trip ourselves.  This is the first Christmas in a number of years that we have had her with us.  Anyway it was a most pleasant surprise and the best Christmas gift she could have given us.

 

THIRD:  As I was looking through some stuff at my desk, my cell phone rang and I did not recognize the number but I could see it was a local number so I answered and a man's voice asked if this was Jim Murphy.  I assured him it was and then asked him who was calling.  He told me his name and I was shocked to say the least.  It was one of the first people I had met after moving back to Texas and I drank coffee with him and some other new friends six mornings a week for several years.  About 5 or 6 years ago he lost his driving privileges due to health and bad eyesight.  He lived in an assisted living unit and I picked him up several mornings after that to take him to coffee.  Then he became more housebound and the last time I checked with his old address, he no longer lived there.  Then months later we heard that he had passed away. This was about 4 years ago.

So I was under the impression that he had passed away and I was sorry that I had missed his funeral.

Then this morning I find that he is still living although he is living in another assisted living location.  He is 91 years old and I asked him if I could come by and visit. He said that he would really like that.  So I have plans to go see him on Friday.

 

I don't know when I have had any better Christmas  Season than this one has been for me.

 

We have been pretty busy and I want to thank everyone who has sent us a Christmas Card or Christmas Letter or Christmas E-Mail. 

 

Since I feel so good about this particular day and this time of year, I will refrain from talking about people with whom I am not happy.  BUT, do not fear as I will be back in attack mode in a few days and by next Wednesday for sure.

 

God bless you all and I will be in touch next week.  Thank everyone who has put up with me for years.  You will notice that in honor of this wonderful Christmas Season I have deleted the Varmint List this week...... but never fear, it is saved and will reappear shortly.

QUOTES:

 

"An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!.... Sir, we are not weak if we make  a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power....  Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.... Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of the chains of slavery?  Forbid it, Almighty God.  I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death."..... PATRICK  HENRY
