The Scarecrow Reply

Posted in Abuse of Power, Being woke, Crime, Elections by

I am sure by now, most have seen The Wizzard of Oz, half a dozen times. I refer all to when Dorothy is confroted with a three way split in the road and asks which one to follow.

You’ll recall the scarecrow points one way then the other. Finally, he, wraps his arms about himself, pointing out all 3 ways and he says, effectively, or you can go that way, indicating all 3 roads led to Oz.

As the local news tries to pin down who is resposible for the crime increase, it reminds of that reply by the scarecrow. Some point here, while others point there.

The truth is that the mayor, city council, those that make the laws, the judges and the district attorney all have their part in it. The scarecrow can lagitamately point at all of them. However, let us not overlook where it all starts… the voters.

It is sort of the thing that happens when the voters vote for the dems for over a decade now.

A Free Hint

Posted in Abuse of Power, Being woke, Christian values, Communism, Crime, Drug Abuse, Education, Elections, FOC by

Five dead from shootings in Memphis over in Memphis, that is if I have heard the news right.

It seems those in authority, stand around pointing fingers and asking, “What should we do?”

Hint: what they are doing hasn’t had a lot of success.

Clue: they might try what has worked for close to a hundred years. You know, putting high priority on God and family. You know, locking up the bad guys. Perhaps, letting the police, police. How novel that would be.

Then again, what is the point. I may as well be talking to a wall.

Well, there is one advantage for those of us south of the state line. The value of my house value keeps skyrocketing. The hitch, occasionally, that crime does make it south. Good thing our officials know how to deal with it.

Perhaps that statement is not fair. I suspect very strongly those north of the state line know very well how to straiten it out quickly. However, knowing and doing is not always the same.

Safety First

Posted in Being woke, Biden, Cancel Culture, Crazy Nuts, Going Green by

I guess safety trumps going green. Still I do wish someone would make up my mind. First I’m told, “Save the planet. Buy an electric car.”

Then during the big midsouth freeze, I’m told, please don’t charge your car. It might cause the electric grid to go down. Please, how is it that I am supposed to get around? I have no horse.

Now, I see news segmemts on TV saying I’m supposed to give up the electric car because it is too heavy. It seems they go through bearriers intedended for regular cars. Worse yet, the electric cars have an unfair advantage in an accident. It seems if my car and another car collide, I have a better chance of survival.

I have no idea what kind of organization is complaining, but I sort of like the idea. I need to have the car well labeled for all those Memphis drivers. That way, they are less to try to hit me. Mind you, the method may not be fullproof. Some of those characters just might try it to find out.

I’m sure you think I jest. You try driving around here and you will realize I speak too kindly of them.

At any rate, it’s too late. I’m going to keep the car…unless someone wants to by me the 300 mile model. I suspect I’ll have no takers. It has more battery power and likely more weight. Then, for sure, no one will want to hit me. I like that idea.

Now, I wonder, will those going green folks ever make up my mind?

POW!

Posted in Being woke, Education, Fear, Fight or Flight by

Surprise.

In the last couple of years, I have taken a real liking to Uncle Ben’s rice. I suppose, given that my name’s Ben there just might be some significance. Most likely not.

At any rate, I got hungry and decided to warm a packet. So I put one in the old MW. After pressing the 2 buttons I needed for a minute and a half, I went about getting my ice & cola.

Being just about time, I started to turn to the MW when there was a very loud POW! Well, I tell you, this old 76 year old frame jumped as if I heard one of those rockets in Vietnam. I’m a little slower these days so my jump was but 3 inches instead of 3 feet.

Smoke was billowing from the MW and i just knew the old thing gave up the ghost and I would have to get another.

Then, I realized my foolishness. I never created the small opening to let the steam out.

Other than the 30 minutes of life I lost from the noise, it turned out well. The package opened very neatly the instant it was ready. I wonder if that was intentional.

Also, the rice was effectively pressure cooked. Turned out pretty good.

Still, I think I’ll do it right next time. My recomendation is that others do the same.

Just What do the Dems Care About?

Posted in Abuse of Power, Adam Schiff, Being woke, Biden, Climate Change, Communism, Controllers, Deceit, FOC by

Some think they know. Some would like to think they know. But few actually have any idea what the most important thing is to the dems.

Some would say that the African-American is. However, conditions for the Black population increased while Trump was in office. Then, they immediately plummeted as soon as Old Joe took the oath. Schools, safety and social environment all improved during President Trumps short years. The facts, not the implications show that Old Joe’s methods have led to ruin for everyone, especially the African-Americans. Actually, that hold true for all the hyphenated groups.

Joe and his puppeteers obvious/y don’t care for those from Latin America. Their lives have not been improved either. Those of Arab decent might be improving for the short term, but I assure you that will change. Right now Old Joe is juggling two balls that he knows he must keep in the air. He doesn’t want to give up the campaign financing from the Jews but he knows if he doesn’t drop support for them, he will lose the support of the other middle eastern descendants.

Beware those in unions. Joe and his cohorts are very busy packaging up your jobs and sending them elsewhere, where the manufactures don’t have to meet the more stringent standards and higher wages. By the way, where the businesses do not have to pay retirement and health benefits.

The truth of the matter is, the dems and Joe have no concern for any of them. You notice how quickly they turn their backs on everyone so quickly after the elections. It is only when one of the groups starts complaining that anything is said from the dems or the media.

You see, the dems, Old Joe, the media. None of them care about anyone. Their goal is power. They will use anything, any group or even each other to that goal. It is what they have used in Russia, China, Cuba, and on and on. It is a pattern set in steel that is easily recognizable and without a doubt, it will be used again.

Take note. Be ware. Keep watch around you. Each time, just before taking over, there has been mass killing. In Germany, over 6 million, far more the Jews. In Russia, about 10 million. No one can get an accurate count. China set the record. I looked it up and even I was surprised. I can’t remember, 30 million maybe.

Clearly, the communist don’t care a bit out life. And, soon, the dems will completely reveal their real color. When they do, it will be red, as in the color of blood running though the streets of our cities.

Then, of course, after it is too late, all will know what the dems care about…power. The black man, those who speak Spanish, those coming here from all points of the globe. They will just be so many bodies, as it was said, statistics to be recorded in the new regime.

Those businesses going along to get along. Take note, commies don’t like businesses or business men. Their bodies will join the rest, just as in Russian, China, Korea Vietnam and Cambodia. I am sure the vast number out there don’t believe me, but now you are forewarned. I have done what I can.

Beware those who seek only power. They have no pity. They let nothing or no one stand in their way. It is what the dems care about, the only thing.

Just Noticed

I might be wrong, but it seems they never have famous people speaking for AARP. Do you suppose that word has gotten out that AARP is now joined at the hip with the dems.

Well, just a thought. As I said, I might be horribly wrong. maybe some famous people would like the association and AARC are the ones who are rejecting the famous people.

To be sure, I don’t like AARP and never will. After all, why would any conservative want to do business with anyone tied at the hip with the dems. For that matter in any which way. I have not 1 reason for it and about 30 thousand reasons to have nothing to do with them and pass the word along.

Died in a Day

Posted in Abuse of Power, Being woke, Border wall, Cheating, Communism, Compromise, Controllers, Deceit, Elections, Immigration by

For weeks, the dems and rinos worked in secret to pass the so-called border security bill. They maintained secrecy that rivaled the WWII Manhattan Project.

Then they released the truth of the bill and they hoped to pass it in days. Indeed, it went flying through the Senate. However, before the proverbial ink was dry, it was declared dead by the House.

In spite of all the conspiracy and collusion by the dems & rinos, the bill died in just about a day. I wonder if anyone keeps track of such things. It just might be a record.

That substance on the faces of the Senate leadership is mud. That description which fits them so well is, “Really dumb,” for trying it.

However, we conservatives need to take note. If we don’t win some elections, that river on that south border will be illegal aliens and it will be flowing north at record rates.

Could it be…?

Posted in Being woke, Biden by

I heard a speach by Old Joe where he just went on and on as if on some kind of drug. And then it occurred to me, it made me wonder if I have have this backwards.

I’ve been thinking they have been giving Joe drugs to make him as cognizant as possible. What if they are giving him drugs to cause him to appear… well, drugged.

Why would Joe’s puppeteers do something like that? Why would anyone behave so dastardly?

I don’t know. Why would they? No one would do something like that, would they?

ONE LAW?

I have a list of them. May I include a group of them, as in each legal voter would be allowed one vote and no one would be permitted to vote for anyone else.

The trick is that in order for that to happen, many laws would have to be changed, mainly in registering. Honest efforts would be needed to make sure that those laws and the old laws would need to be followed.

What i would really hope for is for folks to follow the ones we have. Instead we have an army of lawyers that help those who are dishonest find ways around the spirit of the law.

Then too, there are those who openly, intentionally ignore the laws we already have without penalty. This even to the point they make no attempt to hide it.

Indeed the law ignorer in chief sits in a chair, behind a big nice desk, in an oval office, in a big white house, on Pennsylvania Ave. sometimes. When he isn’t taking a nap.

Old Joe says he needs laws to control the border while he ignores the oodles of laws that are there. If he had more laws, he would ignore them too, that is, unless he could use them to lock up those that actually seek to properly enforce the laws we have.

They Don’t Mean it

It is a blatant lie. They know it and they know we know we don’t believe it. At least twice a day, they still tell the lie on radio in hopes of changing our minds.

The so-called covid 19 inoculations don’t work. I would guess they made an effort at it, but I had it and, since then, I am sure I have had the virus 3 times. I am not alone. Some of those that had the inoculations suffered from the inoculations. Some died from it.

And now, the argument is being made, “let’s knock out covid 19,” as if we can strike it with blow our fist and the dreaded disease will go away. It won’t happen that way. The virus will not go away from the inoculations. However, of course, those who make the inoculations will have a very healthy bottom line.

Meanwhile , the government keeps us from using things that do work.

Now let me see. Do you suppose the government is providing financial aid to those who make that which works not? This, of course while some of us suffer illness, while young people suffer long term heart problems, and some even die…needlessly.
