The Telegraphed Message

Old Joe just made a horrible error. He telegraphed the message world wide that American hostages are now worth a billion dollars each. That was a terrible mistake that has put all Americans, world wide in danger. The bad guys will do a lot to get the billion dollars, I assure you. That puts even people within the country in danger.

The way that the problem should have been dealt with is simple. First, announce that it is assumed that all the hostages are dead. The only thing that will change that is if they are returned safely. Second, announce that if they are not returned safely within five days, there will be retaliation. If we find out that they were killed after the the retaliation, we will retaliate again.

I am not saying that it will get our hostages back, though it very well might. The main thing is that it would announce that the wages for kidnapping Americans is quick and deadly retaliation. I can pretty much guarantee the kidnapping will stop.

The Benefit of the Doubt

I Don’t know if the saying applies here but hopefully you will get the point. Many are quick to point out that, contrary to what Old Joe said, he was not at ground zero the day after 9/11. Many say he lied.

The thing is as people grow old and the memory starts going bad, they will say things not true and they refuse to admit to things that are true. It may or may not be a lie but it might also be a memory failure.

As I understand it, he was there 10 days later. He might actually think it was the next day.

in some cases while I was still in my 60s, my wife and I would argue and argue a point. The next day I realized she was right.

The question at this point is, is it better that he was lying or his memory failed him. To be sure, when a person in the Oval Office Office has a bunch of memory failures, he…we have real problems…problems that cannot be ignored.

I Have Questions

While the news is all full of stories about the recapture of the murderer, Danelo Cavalcante, I have questions that, I guess no one wants to answer.

My first question is, did he enter the US legally? On my own, I determined he is from Brazil. However, I suppose he might have come legally. Given the way things are at the border, the chances are high his arrival was illegal?

That, naturally brings up the supposition that the woman he killed would still be breathing.

My next question is how many dems are willing to lay this death at the feet of Old Joe? Had it not been for Joe’s changes in policy, the man might still be south of the border waiting for a hearing.

Third question. How much time, effort and money was spent convicting the man? Thousands? Tens of thousands? A lot? By the way, his defense was also likely paid for by the tax payers.

Another question, how many more times is this story repeated to some degree all over the country? How many more times will it take before the dems decide it’s time to seal the border. How many more deaths will it take to open their eyes?

And now the escape and search! How many law enforcement men have been pulled from other important duties? How much money was dispersed in the effort?

And then, by the way, the man was armed. Law enforcement officials might have been wounded or killed. Oh, and by the way, bystanders – children might have been hurt.

My last question…would anyone, anyone at all ask Old Joe if he feels any remorse for opening the floodgates? I doubt anyone will. It’s one of those rhetorical questions. You know, the ones where we already know the answer. Besides, he might be one of the few in this country who wouldn’t understand the question.

I guess I lied. I do have 1 more question, the rhetorical type. Are we ready for Old Joe to pack his things and go back to where he can’t do any more damage?

A Definition of a Gullible Fellow

A person who believes that the Iranians will use the money given them for strictly humanitarian reasons.

Incidentally, it is another reason not to leave the country for a while. Those characters over there just found out that the American government will pay a billion a person for hostages. That is a huge incentive to kidnap Americans. This is another one of those actions that needs to be filed in the not-so-smart category.

I know that it’s good to get the men back, but this only encourages more, and more, and, of course, more. A few well placed drone strikes would have worked much better and we would have been far better understood.

Nonetheless, it does make me wonder if Kamala Harris would have been so dumb.

Just a Little Afeared

It looks like they will be opening an official impeachment inquiry. I don’t think the Senate would ever convict, but what a horrible thought to think of is a President Harris.

while I don’t think 66 senators would vote to convict, the dems just might be so embarrassed by what comes out in the trial, they might ask Old Joe to turn in his resignation.

Then guess who would be left at the helm.

The only thing that would stop that woud be if Harris bailed first.

Where’s the Penalty

The federal court has found the Biden administration guilty of interfering with freedom of speach through social media. Assuming the decision holds, I wonder who will be penalized. Who will go to prison? Who will have have to pay a fine? Who will have this hand slapped?

Who and how will those harmed be compensated? Where is justice when the law has no penalty? If I haul off and hit someone, the chances are pretty good I will go to jail or at least pay a fine. If I say something false about someone that causes him, I’ll likely going to make him richer.

On the other hand, the president and his crew can pretty much do as he wants. Then what happens? If it’s Old Joe, it likely won’t even make the evening news

Might I remind those who care, the above action likely chaged the outcome of the election. And the dems like to say no one is above the law. I guess that is also true when there is no penalty for flagrantly breaking the law.
