How Many

Posted in Abuse of Power, Truth, Uncategorized by

The balloon will pop. I have no idea when but it will pop. The dems keep telling lies. Those who support them continue to believe or pretend to believe. I really don’t know which. Either way, the leadership in the democrat party will tell one lie too many and the balloon will pop. Very possibly to late.

My question is how many lies will it take before the truth persists. At what point will the limits be exceeded. When will those in the party finally put their feet down and say enough!

It has amazed me at how many lies they have already gotten away with. Then again, I shouldn’t be so surprised, not with the main stream media helping. Since I gave up cable TV, I have had to settle for main stream media. Guess what. They lie too, in support of the leadership in the party. It would seem that everyone who is anyone is required to take an oath, not to support the nation but the party line, no matter what that lie might be.

Oddly, there are still those in the country, indeed vary many that still believe in the collusion idea. It has been years since that has been totally and objectively debunked. Even the dems don’t try to make us swallow that one anymore. However, it has served its purpose. As long as no one tells the truth about it, many still believe it.

Then, of course there is the letter from the so-called intelligence folks. You know, the ones who are not so intelligent. Because of that lie, there are still those that believe that the laptop was not from Old Joe’s son. If you ask them, it is just another Russian plot.

The lies have taken hold and so very many are reluctant to let go of them.

However, suddenly, like the popping of a balloon, it will become plain that they were lied to. I do wonder if it will be too late to do any good. But even more, I wonder just how many lies they will tell before the truth becomes apparent to one and to all.

Times Past

The wife and I went to a Baskin and Robins ice cream place a while ago. Across the street was a sizable post office. Compared to the one it replaced, it’s huge. The one replaced only had about a dozen or so parking places and the building was only a little larger than the parking lot. The replacement opened ten or twelve years ago. I don’t quite remember when. I don’t know for sure, but I’d guess it has close to a hundred places to park.

As I looked at the reasonably new building, the question came to mind. Just when last was it that I put a stamp on something and dropped it in the mail. In the old days, I made car and house payments by mail. I suppose I still can. However, most of my payments are made my internet. Communications with friends and family is generally by phone, voice or text. Occasionally I send an email, but not often.

It’s sort of odd. The post office is the one department that I know of that is specifically established by The Constitution. Could it be that it just might fade away. Will we reach a time when it will no longer be practical to open the doors of the post offices. 20 or 30 years ago, who would have figured that?

It does show, however what happens when something is run by the government. This was not something that came on us suddenly. If someone in the hierarchy saw what was happening, plans and methods could have been made. When things started to be sent by computer, the postal service did have the option of getting in on the ground floor. Indeed they had the advantage of having the infrastructure in place. Documents could have been sent electronically just as securely and much faster. This was especially true for commercial users of the mail system.

Federal Express popped up to fill the void left by the post office. There were those who needed documents and such things sent other places overnight. Indeed Federal Express invented the new verb, “overnight,” as in “Please overnight that contract to the Chicago office.”

Nowadays, many things such as contracts are sent at the speed of computer. They can be sent either by internet or phone. For all practical purposes, it is instantaneous.

So. What happens to the USPS? I certainly don’t know. I suppose it could just fade away. On the other hand, one day someone might decide to do away with it. In either case, how will I ever be able to survive without all those circulars.

On the other hand, some really forward thinking individual just might figure out a way to modernize the mail service. I’m not sure what a modern post office system would look like, but in the hands of the government, it would likely be worse than today. If turned over to some private company(s), it just might surprise a bunch of dems. Who knows? It might even start turning a profit.

As an aside. We just might could have secure elections all in one day. Don’t think the dems would like that. First they don’t like elections in one day and they certainly don’t like them to be secure.

It Has Been Suggested

Sorry. Don’t know the man’s name and I should. He is the third in the Republican running for President. Just is that I don’t know how to spell his name and I certainly can’t pronounce it. I guess this disqualifies me to ever become a reporter. Well, I will learn his name, both the spelling and the pronunciation.

Don’t get me wrong. I am still for Trump for president, but I heard the other guy say something I really like. He said that if he were elected president, he would send troops to the border. Now that is an idea I can live with. It should have been done a long time ago. The fact of the matter is that it should be treated as an invasion because an invasion is exactly what it is. They might not be using planes and tanks, but it is just as bad and maybe even more effective. We don’t shoot anyone because, well they aren’t really the enemy are they? They just want a job. Who can fault them for that?

Well, it is time to finish the wall and put some serious soldiers there. We need to arm them and give them authorization to shoot. Then we need to make it well known to one and all that we will no longer permit anyone to cross the border illegally.

No one would need to shoot anyone. The illegal migration would stop immediately.

Then the next step… the deportation. They should be rounded up and deported immediately. If they want to apply for asylum, fine. Let them do it from the south side of the border. It should have been done that way to begin with.

If we had done it right in the first place, there would be no need for the army to do the job. The problem is simple. The dems want more voters and the rinos want more labor. Then too, the criminals want the money they make off the smuggling, slaves, dope and prostitutes. It is why few people running for office will run for control of the border. It is why they like to come up with platitudes like, comprehensive immigration reform.

Comparisons

The dems just love making comparisons. Well, here are a few things to think about. To keep things straight forward, let’s use 2020 for it all.

364 by rifle. Too many to be sure but it is one of the lowest. More people were killed by hand, fist and feet that year.

1476 were killed by knife. My guess is that if we were to outlaw guns, this number would rise very fast, like at least double.

6365 killed by hand gun. I didn’t know that. In light of that, I really wonder why they want to outlaw the AR15. The AR15 is intended for distance. It loses it’s effectiveness in close.

Approximately, 71,000 are killed by drunk drivers. I’m not real great with math but that looks to me like more than all the above weapons combined. Maybe we should do more to keep the drunk drivers off the road. It would certainly save more lives than outlawing all rifles combined.

91,000 were killed by overdose, many of which were opiates. Many of those opiates came from China. Why do we let them do that? Why do we let criminals smuggle them over the border. Why do we let the drug aider in chief remain in office.

Note, every time there is a shooting, there is an uproar. Where is the uproar over the drugs that Old Joe intentionally allows across the border.

By the way, whether you want to admit or not, drunk driving is also drug abuse. So, really about 160 thousand are killed in one way or the other from drug abuse. That does not include the murders that are relative to drug abuse. There is no telling how many that would add to it. I would guess 20 thousand would be a conservative estimate.

Comparisons

Every time I look up, the dems are comparing another conservative to Hitler. I find two problems with that. First, Hitler was a socialist, nowhere near a capitalist. He was one of those who believed everything should be run by the government, though the truth be known, he just wanted the power. His idealism served only the purpose of gaining power. On the other hand, president trump believed in decentralization of power. Gaining power was neither his goal nor his desire. He was actually more powerful before his presidency.

Secondly, no one ever compares anyone to Stalin, a far worse man. I mean, if you really want to make a person sound bad, why not say he is like Stalin instead of Hitler. The only reason I can think of is that Stalin is one of the heroes of the communist movement. I mean, you will never find a true dem disparaging Stalin or Lenin, now will you? Have you ever heard anyone saying that so and so is just as bad as Stalin? Do you ever hear a dem say that he or she is as bad as Lenin? Of course not. That would be disparaging one of their idols.

Which brings the question to mind. What if I started using the phrase that so and so is no better than Lenin. I wonder just how long it would take for someone to jump on my case, one of the dems. No doubt that he will say I’m like Hitler. And by the way, I am not a socialist, as Hitler was.

A Word About Social Media

It is why I will never get on Ticktock or Facebook or anything similar. Perhaps I could be more well known if I did, but those folks have a serious problem. They publish lies without hesitation. The truth they disallow, while calling it a lie. That which aids and abets our enemy is welcome while that which encourages patriotism is verboten. They have permitted the rewriting of history, especially American history.

Well, let’s see what I mean. What about the virus. Much of what they would not permit from good ethical doctors could not be published. That damaging, which the dems wanted, was published and encouraged. Perhaps millions died because of that. It kept at least three effective meds from being used while allowing meds that had no effect. It caused two-year-olds to have to wear masks when they knew they had no effect. It obliterated the restaurant industry, especially in NY, NY and It just almost brought the American economy to an absolute halt. And then, as if that was not enough, they caused the US to go into a debt that we might never crawl out of, at least for another 100 years. Finally, they helped the dems outright steal an election right in front of our eyes. (Don’t tell me different. I saw what I saw. Others did too, but it is inconvenient for them to remember.)

People ask me why I won’t get on a social media. Now, you know why. I would appreciate it very much if you would let others know.

Incidentally, has anyone noticed the big increase in crime these last few years, especially shootings? Most of us don’t like it. The dems love it. It gives them a reason… well it just gives them reasons. That’s what they want.

Ain’t Such a Bad Idea

More than once I’ve heard it said that Trump is running for president to stay out of prison. If he don’t belong there, sound’s like it t’ain’t such a bad idea. It sounds pretty sound to me. If it works he can start putting some of the dems where they belong. He just might start by firing the better part of the Justice Department leadership. Also he can fix our borders and keep the drugs and cartels out. He can start driving the price of oil down, as it should be, which will stop the war in Ukraine instantly. If Putin has no money, he can’t fight his war. It might even encourage the Ruskies to find another leader.

Yeah. If that is President Trump’s strategy, I can live with that. Maybe a few more will live with it too. Not so much dying. Clearly, the dems don’t mind a few hundred thousand dying. It does not seem to have bothered Old Joe any at all. Haven’t heard him say two words about it. Haven’t heard the dems say anything about it. All they care about is stopping Trump, no matter what it takes.

Decisions, Decisions

Posted in Abuse of Power, Being woke, Bribes, Cancel Culture, Christian values, Climate Change, Communist Takover, Controllers, FOC, Uncategorized by

I saw something on TV, or was it something I heard on the radio. At the time, I didn’t think a lot about it but the more I think about it the more I realize both the wisdom and importance. The man said that when his children reached 12, he insisted on explaining something to them.

Up to this point, decisions generally have little if any effect on later life. Kids make decisions every day that will quickly be forgotten. Once a person reaches 12, decisions start taking on a more permanent nature.

That was as far as he went. He said no more about it over the air. More and more, I realize the truth in what he said. I wish someone had told me about it, though I was somewhat getting the idea on my own. Even so, as a young man, I did things and said things I wish I hadn’t. I wish I had told my kids, though mostly they turned out good in spite of my shortcomings. There is one thing I would suggest different than the above though. Nowadays, parents need to have the talk with their kids when they are 10, and again at 14, and then at 18.

It is a different world we are in today. What we do and say can follow us even from the preteen years well into adulthood. This is true about what is done and what is perceived to have been done. This is even more true for those that may go into public life. However, it would seem that nowadays, applications for employment have become far more probing.

Just think, if you plan on being a Supreme Court justice someday, that little thing you did at eleven just might make it to the news and you could lose that appointment. If you want to become president, that little fling with that prostitute could cost you the election. To make matters worse, It can cost you the election even if the fling never took place.

The dems are not above making huge money offers to people to give false witness just to destroy their appointment. So a person, when he makes decisions much consider, not only what he does, but he must also be able to defend himself should someone suggest he did do something he didn’t.

It’s not just the dems that like the idea. Satan just loves it when a famous upstanding preacher is accused of something horrible, especially when he’s not guilty. Indeed, he is quick to originate the thought of such false witness. Moreover, he is especially happy should a good pastor stumble. For them, all it takes is once.

And so it is, as we go through life, we must be very careful. When we make decisions, we need not only need to think about whether it good or bad, but also if it might look bad. In essence, we must go through life realizing that at any time, we might be attacked by Satan, himself, of any one of his thousands of willing minions who call themselves democrats, or in some cases, the church gossips.

As a point of fact, after years of the attacks waged on trump, before, during and after he held office, no one proved he did one thing wrong. However, they did manage to disparage him, based on his former life style. I guarantee, none of this would have come about had Trump went along to get along with the dems. It is how the dems maintain control, the threat of attack can have a big affect. In fact, Trump likely would still be in office, no charges of any type would have been made if he only made the bad decisions.

One more thing about decisions. If you do make the right ones, be ready to face those ready to attack you. Be ready to face the accusations. They will most certainly follow. The dems don’t like it when someone gets in the way of their plans. That’s also true of Satan.

How Many Quarts in a Gallon?

Most folks will say four. For most of my life, that is what I’d say. However, we are in a new world. In this world, the women might be men and the men might be women. This is especially true for some men. That is to say, some men are women so they can compete with weaker women. Then too, there are the men who are conveniently women so they can shower with the women in the ladies locker room. And by the way, you better not say it’s a lye of convenience. You will have your hand slapped by the political correct police. On the other hand, you could be punished far worse. Indeed, some have been.

So, I figure that some just might start tinkering with our system of weights and measures. Wait a minute. They already are. They want us to buy gas by the liter and food by the kilogram. In a while, we will have speed limits by the kilometer and who knows what the measure will be for a cup of coffee.

They will do it under the name of making everything easier. Already, I find it more complex. I have to keep two sets tools. My car engines were measured by cubic inch and horsepower. Now they are measured by liter and dins. Sorry folks. I still can’t get my mind wrapped around that centigrade thing. The only thing I know for sure is that if it is 0 degrees centigrade, it’s cold. If one hundred, it’s hot.

In the past, I watched weather reports in Japan. Didn’t get much from it other than if it was going to rain or snow. All their temps were in centigrade. Every time they said a temp, I had to try to convert it in my head.

Now let me see. Every degree centigrade is 9/5 s of a degree Fahrenheit. Now, convert 21 to Fahrenheit in your head in less than 30 seconds. Fact is, until the conversion is done, it doesn’t mean much to me. And, by the way, Fahrenheit is almost twice as accurate as centigrade. Did anyone ever tell you that.

So. I figure it is only a matter of time they will start messing with the English measurements. I guess they will start telling us that a gallon is really three quarts or will it be liters? Of course they will. Those selling gasoline or milk will likely get behind it.

Don’t doubt them. They will do it. They did sell the idea that a man was really a woman. Which is easier? Which is more believable? It is a new world you know. Down is up and up is down. Good is evil and evil is good. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll not dispute it.

It’s the Old Flim Flam

Posted in Abuse of Power, AOC, Being woke, FOC, law enforcement, Lawyers and Representation by

You ever think you’ve won one of those battles with the libs and found out you lost? Well, it looks like it’s happened again. And we had our eyes wide open. I suspect most don’t even realize it. On the other hand, others don’t care.

If the libs had suggested that we move our policing to be more centralized, it would not have happened. It is one of the strong points of our nation. In theory, the feds don’t get involved in most of the law enforcement. Indeed, even murder is considered a state law. On the other hand, the libs would like to make it against a federal law just to own a gun.

Then one day, their armies started shouting, “De-fund the police!” Now that’s dumb and most of us saw right through that, or at least we thought so.

At any rate, it did not take long to realize that didn’t work out so well. Overnight, the streets were filled with crime and the local police simply couldn’t keep up. Hence, they asked for help from the state and feds.

After a few weeks, it was clear this idea of less police was a big failure. So, the libs, supposedly, admitted their mistake and suggested that congress help fund the local police.

Now wait a minute. That was the idea of the libs in the first place. To put more control of policing in the hands of the feds. If the feds provide the funding, then they control it, all of it. It is not just the part they fund that they control but all of it. I am sure there are strings that come with that federal money. There always is.

Hence, we just moved one step closer to a totally central police. In other words, we just been flim flamed. I don’t think I like that but it would seem I am now doing all I can, not much. The best thing we can do is return the federal money and pay for the police locally. I don’t think that will happen. We will become dependent on the law enforcement money just as we have become dependent on federal education funding.

At 72, there is one thing I’ve learned. Cities, counties and states rarely give back funding, even if it means giving up some freedom.
