And a Happy Birthday to you Mr. Coolidge.

Random thoughts / July 4, 2020 July 4, 2020

Be Thankful your dead. You wouldn’t want to see what’s become of America (and Vermont) today.

“It was not because it was proposed to establish a new nation, but because it was proposed to establish a nation on new principles, that July 4, 1776, has come to be regarded as one of the greatest days in history…

Those words were spoken by President Calvin Coolidge on July 5, 1926 at a speech delivered in Philadelphia commemorating the 150^th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. It was especially fitting that Coolidge — the only President born on the 4^th of July — deliver this tribute to the Declaration.

In his speech, Coolidge spoke passionately of the principles in the Declaration, the special inheritance bequeathed to us by Thomas Jefferson, whose legacy is now being threatened by the progressive mob.

“If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people.”

Oh, if the progressives gain the power the people will be ‘ruled, you will be made to care, you will take a knee.

There is plenty of blame to go around for the present peril of our country. Some to the Greatest_Generation for raising spoiled brats. The Supreme Court who certain members think that they’re so much smarter then the founders and reinterpret the Constitution away from the oringinal intent. The Democrat party whose lust for power cancelled their love of country. And Finally the ‘Republican Party’ who for the most part sat around with their thumbs up their ass and watched it happen.

The Fourth of July 2020

Is America Doomed? / July 4, 2020 July 4, 2020

THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated.

File:Abraham Lincoln O-36 by Butler, 1860-crop.jpg ... — ***A. Lincoln***

“Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide.”

45 Patriotic Picture Quotes From Presidents of the United ...

The biggest failure of the Greatest_Generation was that after living through the the ‘Great Depression’ and saving the world from from Fascism they despreately wanted to spare their children, who they spawned in great abundance, the hardships that they went through. But they didn’t pay attention to what was really happening. The Long_march_through_the_institutions had begun, and they would utilize our own freedoms and Constitutional rights against us. Aided and abetted by an out of control judiciary hell bent on rewriting the Constitution as they saw fit. Because they could.

The irony is the Soviet Union collapsed. But the infection of Marxism/Communism simply found a new host. And this evil poison was injected into three generations of our young people by none other then the schoolteachers of our children, whose salaries and health care are paid for by the taxpayers of their towns.

“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”

― G. Michael Hopf, Those Who Remain

Hard times are coming Hopefully Srong men will return. Though probably not in my lifetime. The chaos that is enveloped the nation wasn’t spontaneous. This has been building for decades. The death of George Floyd by the knee of a Minneapolis simply lit the fuse to a powder keg that was already there.

In spite of the Pandemic and the rioting which has roiled the nation, our Country is 244 years old today. It’s still worth celebrating.

So here’s to the fourth of July, Independence day for the U.S.A. . “A Republuc if we can keep it.“

I refuse to be a worm!

Courage on display / June 30, 2020 June 30, 2020

Dinesh D’Souza ✔ @DineshDSouza

When there is pressure to conform—to declare that we are worms—there is one person in 10 who is brave enough to say, “I am not a worm. I will not kneel. I will not fly the swastika flag.” In all times and places, that person is the hope of the future.

The source of Landmesser’s protest, like many great tragedies, starts with a love story.

Vermont is doomed / June 30, 2020 June 30, 2020

***Former Windsor High Principal Tiffany Riley***

Expressing a different opinion different from the orthodox Party line makes her a thought criminal. Perhaps she should be thankful she’s only being purged, someday it may be “to be shot” !

Just read some of the awful things (sarc.) she said.

“I firmly believe that Black Lives Matter, but I DO NOT agree with the coercive measures taken to get to this point across; some of which are falsified in an attempt to prove a point,” Riley wrote, according to the school’s website. “While I want to get behind BLM, I do not think people should be made to feel they have to choose black race over human race.”

“While I understand the urgency to feel compelled to advocate for black lives, what about our fellow law enforcement?” she added. “What about all others who advocate for and demand equity for all? Just because I don’t walk around with a BLM sign should not mean I am a racist.”

“The (School) ~~Politburo~~ Board does not even entertain the possibility that Riley might not be a racist and still question BLM, …

This whole episode stinks. A blatant violation of Principal Rileys First Amendment right of Free speech. And Lawyers are in total agreement on this. As of this writing I have not heard or read of any comment from the Vermont chapter of the A.C.L.U. Somehow I’m not surprised.

Maybe I’ll contact them and see what they have to say.

The Media is Racist ?!

The media are enemies of the people. / June 26, 2020 June 26, 2020

Why yes…yes it is.

Commentary from Bill Whittle.

From “The Peoples Cube”

Antifa, Socialism / June 24, 2020 June 24, 2020

He was there, he should know,

We’ve all heard about the Antifa collective who have seized six city blocks in downtown Seattle and are now trying to set up a collective farm there to grow their own food.

As a former Soviet citizen, I feel obligated to offer their leaders advice based on practical experience.

Since none of you know how to grow seeds into beets, make Mike Bloomberg your minister of agriculture; he’ll be your best expert. Coerce him into joining your collective farm. That way, what’s yours will be his, and vice versa. That’s a lot of seed money.

For a collective farm to work you must first cleanse your ranks of wreakers, spies, saboteurs, and other enemies of the people, once you collectivize their property. Convert one of the six city blocks into a Gulag (aka concentration camp or forced labor camp), where these thoughtfelons can redeem themselves by toiling for the Common Good™ planting beets.

Then there’s an issue of some collective farmers being more successful than others. Round them all up, label them kulaks, and dekulakize them. Convert one more city block into a forced labor Gulag. Now, with so much free labor, you’re bound to have great economic success and prove to the hateful world that your way is better than their capitalist wage slavery and oppression…

Black lives only matter…

BLM, Liberal hypocracy, Progressivism / June 21, 2020 June 21, 2020

when they’re taken by white people.

Wilfred Reilly@wil_da_beast630·Jun 12I can confirm that the letter in the thread below was sent to me and Tom Sowell. It’s really worth reading, in a time of widespread panic.Quote Tweet

Tracy Beanz@tracybeanz · Jun 11Thread: I was sent this and felt the need to thread it here on Twitter. It will be long. It is purported to be an anonymous, open letter from a professor at UK Berkeley in the History Department. The only comment I will make is to say it is worth every moment of the read.

“If we claim that the criminal justice system is white-supremacist, why is it that Asian Americans, Indian Americans, and Nigerian Americans are incarcerated at vastly lower rates than white Americans? This is a funny sort of white supremacy. Even Jewish Americans are incarcerated less than gentile whites. I think it’s fair to say that your average white supremacist disapproves of Jews. And yet, these alleged white supremacists incarcerate gentiles at vastly higher rates than Jews. None of this is addressed in your literature. None of this is explained, beyond hand-waving and ad hominems. “Those are racist dogwhistles”. “The model minority myth is white supremacist”. “Only fascists talk about black-on-black crime”, ad nauseam.“

BLM has on its side an American equivalent of the Stasi !

Increasingly, we are being called upon to comply and subscribe to BLM’s problematic view of history, and the department is being presented as unified on the matter. In particular, ethnic minorities are being aggressively marshaled into a single position. Any apparent unity is surely a function of the fact that dissent could almost certainly lead to expulsion or cancellation for those of us in a precarious position, which is no small number.

I personally don’t dare speak out against the BLM narrative, and with this barrage of alleged unity being mass-produced by the administration, tenured professoriat, the UC administration, corporate America, and the media, the punishment for dissent is a clear danger at a time of widespread economic vulnerability. I am certain that if my name were attached to this email, I would lose my job and all future jobs, even though I believe in and can justify every word I type.

And Blacks killing Blacks…white progressives couldn’t give a rats ass !

The vast majority of violence visited on the black community is committed by black people. There are virtually no marches for these invisible victims, no public silences, no heartfelt letters from the UC regents, deans, and departmental heads. The message is clear: Black lives only matter when whites take them. Black violence is expected and insoluble, while white violence requires explanation and demands solution. Please look into your hearts and see how monstrously bigoted this formulation truly is.

In addition sixty years of one party Democrat rule in our cities, coupled with LBJ’s Great Society which destroyed the Black family.

On average 1,876 Black babies are aborted every day in the United States

Minority women constitute only about 13% of the female population (age 15-44) in the United States, but they underwent approximately 36% of the abortions.

For “Planned Parenthoods” founder Margaret Sanger this was not a bug but a feature.

Black lives matter indeed.

Now they’re going after Lincoln!

Antifa, Democrats, deranged Libs / June 20, 2020 June 20, 2020

And the ‘Democrat’ mayor of Boston (no surprise there) is fine with it.

Inquiring minds want to know: Will Stephen Spielberg be throwning Abraham Lincoln under the bus?

Will author Doris Kearns Goodwin renounce her book “Team of Rivals” on which Speilbergs movie is based ?

But according to Doris: “Lincoln would be a Democrat today”.

Like these Democrats Doris…?

The Memorial to 54th Massacheusetts Regiment was also defaced. I wonder what Denzil Washington and Morgan Freeman think about this?

Washington and Jefferson statues are being toppled across the country.

K-12 public education in America has been rotten for the last fifty years. I saw the begining of Marxist indoctrination with my own eyes back in the late sixties. It’s all part of the radical lefts ‘long march’ starting by taking over college academia, teachers colleges especially. And from there training not teachers but political commissars who have poisoned the last three generations to hate their own country.

The results of their efforts are plain to see right now in real time.

How others see…

It’s a real word after all.
