Social commentary

Bernie endorses Hillary (Yawn)

You knew this was going to happen. It couldn’t have been any other way. Bernie caucuses with the democrats. If he hadn’t he would became a REAL independent in the Senate. Especially if Hillary should lose because Bernie’s supporters decided to sit this on out.  The democrats still haven’t forgiven Ralph Nader for Florida.

In Vermont according to the latest poll it’s 62% to 31% Hillary over Trump.  This woman should be in prison. She may be the next POTUS.  But she’ll be our first WOMAN president. And we’ll have free healthcare, free college tuition, and a $15 min. wage.  Who could possibly be against that. Those EVIL Republicans that’s who. I wish we could set up an exchange student program.  Send 1000 Vermont high school students to study for a year in Venezuela. and bring 1000 Venezuelan students to Vermont to stay with nice liberal families.  That would be interesting to see what results.

I do think that another factor is in play.  Yes, they’re conditioned to love Hillary and that big “D” by her name but they Hate Republicans, Conservatives, Christians, Capitalism, freedom,  and the Constitution MORE!

At least 2 Generations have been brainwashed into believing that their country sucks and Republicans are evil.  Howard Zinn’s history books are required in our schools. College Campuses are nothing but indoctrination centers for the left.  This may be the most important election in America since 1860.

A friend of mine has said that we’re lucky to be old, that we won’t be around to see the final catastrophe that will finally put an end to the grand experiment that was America.

Perhaps one person who should be wary if Hillary should become POTUS is that old pervert Bill.  Like the drones in an Ant or Bee colony, he will have served his purpose. The Queen will have no further use for him.  If he thinks that they’ll be co-presidents he may be in for a rude awakening.

 

 

Do Millennials comprehend what they’re losing?

“I want to tell you about the town of Stockbridge Massachusetts where this happened here. They’ve got three stop signs, two police officers, and one police car. But when we got to the scene of the crime there were five police officers and three police cars, being the biggest crime of the last fifty years and everybody wanted to get in a newspaper story about it…”  (Nov. 1965)

From Alice’s Restaurant Massacree.  By Arlo Guthrie.

When one generation gets old they often reminisce about the times when they were young.  I was born at the beginning of the age of television. Black and white and only two channels, on ABC, the other CBS. Cable and NBC didn’t arrive on my street until 1966.   We didn’t have dial phones, party lines still existed.  Standard shift meant cars with a clutch and you had to move a stick to shift. The sound system was an AM radio,  FM was an option, as was A/C. The most modern office equipment was a electric typewriter.  Needed a copy? That’s what carbon paper was for.

For our Parents the technological advancements that occurred in the 60’s were nothing short of amazing, (We landed on the moon for crying out loud)  compared  to the times  of their youth in the 1920’s and 30’s.  But airplanes and radio existed then, not for their parents who still used the horse and buggy.

The same holds true today for us baby boomers.  The internet, laptop computers, cell phones, and flat screen T.V’s to name a few examples.

But while technology has progressed in quantum leaps, something else has regressed.  Our love and desire for freedom.  That, along with moral relativism which has all but destroyed societies ability and desire to state unequivocally what is right and what is wrong.

It seems to me that millennials, unlike us old fogies have no concept of history.  It’s like the world was created the day they were born.  And their corruption by  government run schools and colleges has been very through.

They’re just such little snowflakes. They start to melt whenever their worldview is questioned. Being pro-life on campus is just the latest.

They want everything to be “free”, free college, free healthcare, free from worry. free from ideas they don’t agree with.  Make the “rich” pay for it. They want to be sheep, to be taken care of.  What they fail to realize is that sheep require shearing.  and sometimes led to slaughter. But it will never be them, always those other people.

According to Wikipedia Arlo is now a registered Republican. Was a Ron Paul supporter, and is a believer in the Constitution.  He’s disappointed in both political parties. As am I.

Arlo remembers a time and place when “littering” was considered a major crime and Tricky dick didn’t get away with it.  But today if you have a “D” by your name you can.   It’s the Democrats who want to shred the Constitution.

Arlo remembers what it was like when he was young. Millennials  can’t conceive of getting old, or ever considering that they might be wrong.

Troubling times indeed.

 

 

 

 

Taking an Oath means nothing today.

For the President:   “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and to the best of my ability preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

For the Supreme Court:  “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as _____under the Constitution and laws of the United States; and that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I Will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.” 

For Congress: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any metal reservation or purpose of evasion; and I will faithfully discharge the duties of the office I am about to enter. So help me God.”

The domestic enemies of the Constitution are the Progressives, and Democrats. Like the Ten Commandants, the Constitution is full of “Shall Not’s” that are meant to limit the power of government.

Obama and his minions  hate the Constitution, and wish to shred it. Their oaths mean nothing to them.

This is especially true for 4 members of the Supreme Court.

And the Republicans oaths mean nothing also,  because they’re afraid to defend it.

We live in dangerous times.

 

 

Thoughts on a heinous crime.

Three stories about sexual assault, a heinous crime if there ever was one. It’s when a man male choses to debase himself, to throw off any pretense of civilized behavior and wallow in abject debauchery.  Then offers lame excuses about being intoxicated, or it’s the culture,  and everyone was doing it.  In the Stanford case this was Brock Turner’s excuse. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/09/us/brock-turner-blamed-drinking-and-promiscuity-in-sexual-assault-at-stanford.html

In Nashville another case of student athletes behaving badly.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/nashville-rape-case-echoes-sex-assault-stanford-swimmer-143504290.html;

In both cases the evidence was overwhelming, witnesses and video. Of course one was white, the others black. The parameters of the cases being that separate states have different rules.  One judge had leeway, on didn’t.

And an outrage I just heard today.https://www.yahoo.com/news/man-accused-groping-13-old-130006872.html

For some people it’s apparent that “NOTHING” is beneath them.

Of course there is one group that will always get a pass, especially in Europe. At the speed and the direction were going it won’t be long before it will be the same here.

Closer to home two sex assault charges were dropped against Sen. Mcallister due to inconsistences  in the accusers latest testimony and previous accounts. He still faces four more charges from accusations of another woman.

Since there seems to be no extra evidence (video or audio recordings, other witnesses) it boils down to a he said/she said situation. Some people seem to want to put the crime of sexual assault in a special category were the burden of proof is placed on the accused to prove his innocents from the presumption that he’s guilty.  The majority of the state senate already believe he is.

Kris Lukens director of Voices Against Violence said “it is common for victims of trauma to confuse the details of what happened to them”. That may be so,  but when we’re talking serious prison time, the defendant and his counsel have to do whatever they’re legally and ethically allowed to do to counter the accusations.

I don’t know if Sen. Mcallister  is guilty or innocent.  All I know that if I was accused of assault and the only evidence was someone’s word, and with the distinct possibility of a long prison term,  and I was innocent, I would have to pull out all the stops to defend myself.  I’m allergic to prison.  But like Sen.  Mcallister,  where does one go to get their reputation back?

 

 

 

Do you know the way to San Jose?

Does this guy need a geography lesson or does he know something we don’t?

San JoseMaybe we should give California back to Mexico. The whole place is going to fall into the ocean anyway.

It’s not like we have a border or anything.

Oh by the way,  San Jose California is richest city in America.  A lot of very wealthy silicon valley libs live and work in San Jose Ca. .  I’m sure that they favor gun control and wealth redistribution.  Bet you can make good money as a security guard.

Maybe they should convert their money to the peso.

Waiting for the other shoe

Just happened to be watching “Sportscenter”.   they had a short feature on a former basketball star from UCONN who is turning professional with the WNBA.  Women have more “leagues of there own” now then anytime since WW2. The level of skill and competition has grown tremendously, and with that more money is involved.

Now that “Dear Leader” has decreed that men who identify as women (and I assume women who identify as men) are free to utilize the public restroom facilities they feel comfortable with, what is to stop men and boys who identify as women and girls (MABWIAWAG) from joining female sports teams at any level.

George Washington University briefly had a transgender athlete on the women’s basketball team who was transitioning from a woman to a man.  The reverse would have to be allowed. Now athletes professional and college are routinely tested for performance enhancing drugs (PED’s). Would the male hormone testosterone be considered a PED? Apparently not now.

Professional, college and high school sports are suppose to be a the ultimate meritocracy. The best players make the team, all other are cut. This I know from personal experience. You want to win or at least be competitive.  The days where everyone has fun, play to a tie and all go out for ice cream are over.  If a team can obtain an edge and still be within the rules, well you’d be crazy not to exploit it. So if a big strapping “male” athlete who has excellent basketball skills announces that he “feels” like a women and is in the process of “transitioning” [He/She?] still has the male plumbing, that transition will (maybe) come later. There is nothing to prevent [him?] from trying out and if [she?] is good enough making the team.

A Billie Jean King in her prime could easily beat an over the hill Bobby Riggs. A college women’s basketball team would likely beat a boys high school team. But a equal contest between the best teams of both genders would be no contest.

For the first four seasons the NBA was (with the exception of one Asian- American) an all white league. The color line was broken in 1950. today the NBA is 74.4% African-American. Why is that? Well, there is no affirmative action involved, no quotas. It’s just that the majority of the best players happen to be black. If a transgender player gives a women’s team an edge, why not have two or three. And if one team does it the others will have to do the same. So this means fewer slots for real 100% women.

Now someone may say that they’re not enough transgender athletes that it will make a difference. Apparently they’re enough transgender people that they have to be allowed to used the “ladies room”, along with the nearly 750,000 registered sex offenders in the U.S.

I would highly recommend my readers to visit the bookworm room for more excellent essay’s on this subject.
