"Anybody's Guess!"

I'm back again. Since I last wrote, the Republican herd has thinned out quite a bit, and it looks like more will be dropping out soon.

Trump looks like a runaway train, although, I have yet to see anything specific about his plans. Cruz and Rubio are in "attack mode" against "The Donald", but it may be too little, too late.

The Republican debates have degenerated into little more than screaming matches filled with vitriol and hate filled rhetoric to the point of becoming unlistenable.

If the establishment Republicans really want to "dethrone" Trump, it must be done over "specifics", not trying to match him in the amount of epithets they can aim at him. Let the Democrats do all the name calling and concentrate on the important issues that are now "on the table". Both Cruz and Rubio  are more versed on the actual politics of the issues than Trump and that is where their forte lies, not in a "getcha, gotcha" game.

As for Trump, he must present his actual plans instead of screaming names and ranting. I know Trump is an intelligent man or he never could have accumulated the fortune he now has; he needs some savvy political advisors to help him construct a cogent and easily understandable diagram of his plans and all the particulars of each plan. If he can do this, he will be virtually unstoppable, both for the nomination and the general election. Trump has "struck a chord" with the American voters; he has voiced the anger and desperation that have been building up over the years of the Obama Administration.

Now to the Democrats, where do I start? This is a party that wants to appeal to the most radical of its members and to the most "moldable" of society. It looks like the "perfect storm" for a Democrat defeat in November.

Hillary has more bad publicity and baggage than one could imagine. No candidate for president should be allowed to have a resume like this one. She has been proven, on video, to be a compulsive and really poor liar. Benghazi is a huge weight to carry into a national election, and she can't explain it away, no matter how hard she tries. Her "hubby" is the worst womanizer ever to hold the Presidency, yet she believes she can speak to women's rights, even though she didn't have enough self respect to dump "Slick Willie" when he treated her like garbage.

Bernie Sanders, what can I say about Bernie; he is a self proclaimed socialist, a draft dodger and a man who didn't hold a regular job until he was forty years old. He rants against the wealthy, even though the wealthy have been creating American success since the nation's conception. He says he wants "free college for everybody", but his plan is a fiscal impossibility to accomplish. He wants to expand welfare, a system that is already rampant with fraud and graft. Bernie's base is basically students and people who are looking for a free ride at somebody else's expense; to quote an old country expression, "That dog won't hunt!"

In short, the Democratic slate is a walking disaster, and the Republicans seem to be doing their best at trying to give the election away by appearing divisive within their own ranks.

It looks like the winner will be the one who "screws up the least" in front of the American public. I am at a point now that I believe almost anything can happen, and the prospect is scaring me to death!

Stay tuned, who knows what will happen next!

"Hello"

It has been over a year since I wrote anything on this site, I apologize for this, but health has been a concern and continues to be one.
Now to business, since I last wrote America has suffered greatly under the continued burden of having Barack Hussein Obama as its so-called president. The 1st and 2nd amendment of our constitution have been under attack from every left-wing lunatic under the sun and American soil has suffered terrorist attacks from those "peace loving" Muslim murderers. The Democrats have a verified liar as the front runner for their nominee for president only to be followed by a screamingly crazy socialist as her challenger. 
We have had riots against the police of our nation with little grounds for protest when facts of these incidents come to the forefront of investigation. This President stated he will work outside the Constitution when it suits his purposes and has little regard for the will of the people.
We have borders as porous as Swiss cheese and our President says not to worry, he is sure no terrorists will sneak into America; he is a man living outside reality and sanity.
The Republican Party has a larger roster then the NFL with only a few who are connecting with the American voter.
Obamacare is proving to be the disaster it was predicted to be, with outlandishly large deductible payments and huge payroll deductions. Oddly if you are unable to afford these plans you are FINED for non-compliance (the logic of the left).
I haven't seen such racial division since the early 1950s; this President is responsible for the decline of racial understanding more than the "Grand Dragon of the KKK", and it appears that Mr. Obama wants it this way.
Our closest ally in the Middle-East, Israel, has been treated like a "red headed step child" by the Obama Administration while we have coddled Iran and even engaged in a treaty that all but insures them the ability to launch nuclear missiles against anybody they wish to destroy.
In November we will be electing a new president and some members of Congress, and the current climate in America is to clean house completely.
As a veteran I am at my wits end over the way Mr. Obama has tried to neuter our military, leaving us open and weak in the face of real danger, both at home and abroad.
In closing I would like to say once Barack Hussein Obama walks out of the White House for the last time I will be giving a huge "sigh of relief", knowing he won't be coming back to do further damage to my country.
I will write again from time to time, but health sometimes dictates my schedule; be blessed and God Bless America!!

"Farewell for Now"

I realize I have not posted anything for some time without any notice to my readers, and I apologize for this.

My health has not been the best and other incidents in my life are taxing me too.

I am concerned that the November elections will not be the conservative success that I hope for, but it will all be in God's hands and His plan is always perfect.

I will not be posting as frequently as I have in the past because of the above statements, but I will post when I'm up to it. I know there are others out there who share my beliefs and I trust they will carry on in the defense of our constitutional republic against this overbearing and oppressive administration.

I want to thank those who take the time to read my observations, I try to serve truth and America as best as I can.

I will now be taking some time off to deal with some life trials, I will pop in on occasion, so peek in now and then; until you hear from me again be blessed because God is in control.

"I Am An American"

I am an American; I've been an American for nearly 70 years. I've seen recessions under several administrations during my life as an American and I've seen America come back from those recessions even stronger than when she entered them. I've seen several military conflicts in my nearly 70 years; I even wore my country's uniform during one of them, and I wore it proudly. I saw demonstrations over many of the decades of my life here in America, some I supported and some I didn't. I remember Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard M. Nixon, Gerald R. Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush and finally Barack Hussein Obama.

My experiences over these many years have given me some measure of knowledge about what makes
America what she has been to all of us, and to all of the world. We have been the symbol of peace and strength to the entire free world; we have been the "role model" for humane treatment for most of the world. We have been the giver of aid to many who have no hope from any other source, and the defender of the innocent in some of the world's most devastating situations and those acts always made me proud to be an American.

Since Barack Hussein Obama ascended to the office of President of the United States in 2008, many things have changed in America and the world.

America has taken a tremendous step backward in world leadership, confidence in our government is lower than it has ever been at any time in history (this includes Nixon's Watergate years) , race relations have degenerated to levels prior to that of the 1940s, and our military has been treated like a pariah by those in the White House. Terrorism is now on the increase throughout the world and is knocking at America's door like never before, and our President says he doesn't have a plan in mind just yet.

People are being mutilated around the world and heads are being chopped off on videos to prove a point to America by these terrorist animals, yet Barack Hussein Obama goes to fundraisers and plays golf with his buddies, totally distanced from the crisis laden situations that exist around him.

Every opportunity to divide this nation has been taken by this President; poor against rich, business against labor, and worst of all; black against white. This President has proven that he is more dangerous to America than any of those sources who seem to be trying to destroy her because of his calculated policy of division and hatred, coupled with his total disdain of America's Constitution.

Sometimes one needs to step away to gain perspective on everything that has happened over the course of the last six years; that is what I have been doing over the last few weeks. I haven't written anything lately because of my disgust over the lack of responsibility of those who are in a position to take actions against this BAD PRESIDENT.

I am an American, and I want America to recover its greatness and strength; but this will not happen while Barack Hussein Obama continues to occupy the Oval Office. He can only be removed by impeachment and prosecution, and that will only happen if the Republican Party can gain control of the Senate in November.

If you are an American and you want to see America once again become the "light of the world", I urge you to support the Republican candidates in all offices in the November election, or we may lose America forever.

"Whistling"


“Whenever I feel afraid, I hold my head erect, and whistle a happy tune, and no one will suspect I’m afraid!” Those words were from a song in a Broadway show many years ago and those words are sung to make the character feel at ease in a bad situation and to fool those around him about his true feelings. There is also a term “whistling passed the grave yard” which is meant to tell the “ghosts and goblins” that when you walk by, you aren’t scared of them; another phrase is “whistling in the wind”, which has the same meaning as the first expression, whistling to dispel fear or dread. False bravado is sometimes used as a safety mechanism in combat to burn off that foreboding of the upcoming confrontation with the enemy, but no matter what one does, eventually you have to face your fears and consequences in almost all situations.

Little boys engage in all types of conflict while growing up; fist fights are common and usually not too damaging at the grade school level. Sometimes conflicts are avoided by excuses like “this is my good suit and I can’t fight now”, or “my mom wants me at home right away”, or “I wasn’t the guy who said that, it was Johnny”; any statement was made to avoid those awful challenges the poor 10 year olds face as they grow into “men”.

America has been watching the growing crisis at the southern border, and America has seen the plethora of excuses that have been flooding from Washington and particularly the Obama White House.

The President refused to make a personal appearance at the affected areas in Texas because he said he wasn’t interested in a “Photo-op”. Anybody who has lived on planet Earth for the last six years knows that there is nothing Barack Hussein Obama likes better than a photo-op. This president acts more like a game show host on the “E” network and spends more time on television than any of his predecessors. The amount of pictures of Barack Obama with celebrities is astounding. Singers, actors and TV personalities are regulars to the entourage of our current president. Barack Obama loves being around the “beautiful people” and has plenty of pictures to prove it. The folks on the left in the entertainment industry love to “hang with the Prez” at every opportunity.

There aren’t too many “celebrities” hanging around the border in Texas right now, nor are there many standing on the highways of California who are blocking those buses full of illegal aliens. Perhaps that is why Barack Hussein Obama hasn’t taken the time to go to those places.

The alternate reason Mr. Obama hasn’t gone to those places is he is just a little “afraid” to walk passed those “graveyards” because his fear would show up with him.

America is UPSET. Mr. Obama doesn’t like to be held to account for his actions and he will find somebody to blame if it is at all possible, but border security is his job, no matter how LOUD HE WHISTLES!

Watching him on the news, you can practically “smell his fear” as he tries to explain away this gigantic confluence of unwanted and illegal entrants to our nation.

Mr. Obama can Whistle as much as he wants to, but the facts are louder than his “tooting”!!

"Guest of Honor?"


Do you like being invited to parties? I like parties very much; there is usually food, drinks, desserts and friendly conversation. They sometimes play music and dance, depending on the type of party it is. Funny stories are pervasive and laughter is everywhere. Family parties are fun because everybody knows everybody and they almost always get along with each other. Most people don’t invite people they don’t like to parties; who wants to see somebody they don’t agree with or get along with at what is supposed to be a fun occasion? You don’t see many Cub fans at a White Sox convention, or Packer fans at a Bears convention. All that would result from those occasions would be name-calling and possible physical confrontations; not too much fun. It would be best to avoid situations where you are subject to any possible confrontations, if that is at all possible.

Politicians are given their offices at the pleasure of the people and are obligated to those who have given them their office. The will of the people is foremost in conducting the business of government. Sometimes an elected official must face the people on issues that are particularly volatile, and that is not usually a pleasant experience.

Over the last few weeks, the continuing problem of illegal immigration has been festering in the public eye, as thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants are converging on our border and being sent to several American communities by the bus load.

Texas Governor, Rick Perry, has called upon President Obama to act on this situation, as it has put an undue burden on the people of Texas; thus far, no relief has been sent from Washington.

There are currently 50,000 “unescorted children” who have crossed into America and are now a burden on the citizens of Arizona and other surrounding states, and those taxpayers are expected to “foot the bill” for these unwanted visitors.

A policy now in effect is sending busloads of illegal aliens is meeting with great opposition from members of some American communities, as citizens have blocked the path of the vehicles and tried to prevent those criminal illegal aliens from entering their towns and cities. People have been arrested and violence has taken place because of this ill-advised action by the Obama Administration.

These communities have asked that President Obama come to the site of these protests and the sites of this conflagration of illegal entries; he has chosen not to appear there; so much for answering to the people.

This is odd, because President Obama will be in the area in question and would be able to personally address this situation to the affected communities, but he has chosen to go to a Democrat fund raising event instead of obeying his constitutional obligation to the American people. Mr. Obama’s attitude is arrogant and dismissive of the concerns of American citizens and their legitimate request that their President hear their voices.

There is a “party” going on at America’s southern border and Barack Hussein Obama has been invited to attend; in fact, he may even be the “guest of honor”, yet he is turning down the invitation.

Come on down Mr. President; who knows, you could be the “life of the party”!!
