Flag Waving

Posted in Abuse of Power, Border wall, Cancel Culture, Communism, Communist Takover, Crime, Deceit, Elections, FOC, Immigration, Lawyers and Representation, Liberals, Politally Correct by

They are coming to America, as the song title says. However, the flag they wave is not the Stars and Stripes. Instead, they prefer the flag of the country from which they come.

Repeatedly, the dems point out that we are a nation of immigrants. True, but always before, the immigrants let go of their old flag, and country; and took up their new flag, and new country.

I don’t know when it changed, but there was a time when dual citizenship was not permitted. If anyone knows the benefits of split allegiance, please let me know.

As Jesus said, a man cannot serve two masters. I do believe that goes to nations as well. For when the time comes for decisions, do you decide for the Stars and Stipes or for your former colors. To be sure, the decisions just might confront you each time you enter a voting booth. Are you, for sure going to vote for the good of the US, or will you maintain your ties to your prior country? Just which country will benefit from your vote?

Which flag gets waved? Which flag gets saluted? In my book, a person ought not gain citizenship until they are ready and willing to put down their former colors.

This is greatly amplified in Congress. There is a Constitutional requirement for the president to be a native born American. It is a shame that there isn’t such a requirement for both houses of Congress. This very day we have people in our Congress who wave foreign flags and they are proud to do it.

There’s just some wrong about that. To whom do they owe their allegiance? For whom do they cast their votes?

There is a Word I Am Thinking of

I saw a pickup today that obviously belonged to a marine as it had a Simper Fi and a few other markings on it. However, the one that really caught my attention was the one “If you haven’t been there, shut your mouth.”

Well, I was a marine too. however, I repaired airplanes. I very likely was never where he was but I still have an idea of what he means. I have been close enough that my garments were partially singed so I do have something of an idea of what he was saying and why.

People all the time like to “play” expert, as if they are smarter than those who have been there. No one, not even me is smart enough to know until they have been there. It is a strange place. It makes cowards out of the brave and it makes heroes out of boys. I have seen both. A man does not know until he’s been there which one he is. When the bullets start flying and the rockets start falling, it is a different world.

First, it is loud. Have you ever shot a weapon? Do you have any idea how loud they are. After a year in Vietnam, I still flinch when I hear a loud noise and that was over fifty years ago. Second, it is a world of death. That men with which you go through training just might end up with a bullet through him. Those bullets are very impersonal. It could have gone through you just as easily and when you’re there you suddenly realize it to a point you never knew before.

It is a world where you, that’s right, you pull a trigger as you look at the man coming at you. Then he falls in front of you none too soon. It is a place you didn’t want to go and you never want to go again. Yet, some men do. It is a scary, bloody place, many times a place of confusion. One minute, your convinced that the enemy is in front of you. Then suddenly, you hear shooting at you from the right or from behind.

When the marines landed at Da Nang, the Viet Cong hid in holes and let the marines by. Then they popped up and fired on the marines from behind them. How would you like to face a surprise such as that. The problem is that every war is different. The methods used in the last war just might not work.

I can’t tell you what it was really like because I’ve never really been there. Maybe I should shut my mouth but for one more thing. I did know what it was like to wake 2, 3 times at night to the horrendous, loud sound of rockets exploding. The only reason I lived through it was because they missed me. Some were not so fortunate. I arrived a little after the Tet offensive. Fortunately, I got all my education from that second hand. That was more than enough for me.

Then I come home and I hear what the experts say about the military, experts who have never been there. They say we should allow women at the front. I am no expert, but I have seen enough of it to say that’s not right. Putting women at the front lines should be a last resort, not SOP. I know it Mr. Expert because I have seen women close to combat situations and I know the problems it creates. When you are in a fight for your life, problems are one thing you don’t need.

The experts say that women are at the front now and just fine. Well, I would argue that point twice over. First, no women have ever been in a real battlefield condition. We have always had to superior forces by far. Secondly, every time they have been close, they have caused problems. The experts don’t want to believe it because they are all wrapped up in their cause of equality for women. “If they aren’t treated equally, they will not have the opportunity to advance in rank.” By the way, my best guess, if there were problems, they were covered over. The experts don’t like to admit failure.

Let me put this on you. When you are at war, the object is to win the war quickly with as few casualties as possible. The concept of equality for women’s rights is the furthest thing from my mind, or at least it should be. The job of an officer is military tactics, not social engineering.

The word I am thinking of when we turn officers and generals into social engineers is DISASTER. And all will know it if we send women into a real shooting war.

I know the experts disagree with me. However, most of the experts have never been there. Until they have been, they need to keep their mouths shut.

Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely

John Dalberg-Acton is credited with the above statement. The other day, I was considering it and what the Bible says about the love of money being the root of all evil. (1st Timothy 6:10). As I thought it over, I realized that the love of power certainly has it’s part in it too.

However, there is a difference. Not everyone thirst after power as they do after money. Most of us wouldn’t want the power if it was given to us. I certainly don’t.

On the other hand, there are those who lust after power almost since birth. History is replete with them, mostly bad. Moreover, as the above saying suggest, the more power a person has, the more he wants. It becomes, as has been said by others, something of an opiate.

However, it is also true of groups and organizations. Indeed, some generals have gone insane from it. Those like Nero went absolutely mad with it. There has been more than one fight over throwns because of it. Europe was full of one war after the other during the dark and middle ages. Modern wars have been fought to either maintain or gain power, such as both world wars. The Soviet Union was formed to take power(control) of the world by lying that communism would fix everything.

The western world was not alone in the striving for power. I mean, just why was the Great Wall of China built? By the way, did you ever notice all the ancient cities were built with walls around them. For sure the walls were built frequently before the homes. Why? Because there were those who sought to rule over other cities and other nations.

Now, I ask you, what modern day organization seeks power? I’ll give you a hint. They break the law all the time and claim that others are breaking the law. They promise the moon but provide little or nothing. They break the election laws and claim their opponents do.

They take away our freedoms, (the Bill of Rights) while claiming others are trying to take away our democracy. They lie while claiming everyone else is lying. They promise life but kill by the millions.

Now let’s see, it is the dems that fraught for slavery. It was the dems that tried to keep the Black race from voting. It is the dems that tried to keep the Black people from learning to read. Now they have the nerve to try to claim the Republicans did it.

It is the dems that will not let people pray in school. It is the dems that try to make everyone pay for the killing of Black babies. (abortion) And it is the dems that are trying to keep people from having their say in colleges.

Sounds to me like those dems are maybe just a bit power hungry. Sounds to me that those dems have been corrupted by that power.

My Thanks and Appreciation to the Voters of Memphis

Posted in Communism, Communist Takover, Deceit, Elections, FOC, law enforcement, Politcal Opinion, unbelievable by

Don’t know for sure.  However, my best guess is that the value of my property just went up somewhere in the neighbor hood of 8 or 9 thousand.  Just a guess.  It does take a while to verify things sometimes.

However, Memphis just had an election and they chose a mayor who will not quash the crime problem.  Most likely, he will make sure to drive the treasury well into debt and he likely won’t help the transit system much either.  If anyone expects the LG&W outfit to improve, think again.  You just put the wrong man in the job of mayor to expect that.

The fact is that the new mayor will likely do everything he can to destroy the city from every point he can think of.  I would say it will be from ignorance but he will know exactly what he is doing.  By the way, he will also have the Dems, AKA communists, behind him helping him in every way.

Even now, I suspect the phones at U-Haul have started ringing.  They will be one of the few businesses in Memphis to benefit, at least for a while.  Already, many businesses have threatened to shut down or move.  Why should they stick around when their customers are heading south, north, east and west?

And so it is… the property values in Memphis will head south as the populace takes off for parts unknown.  And, of course, part of them will be headed for Desoto County.  That will drive my property value up.

There are, of course three downsides for me.  Our streets will be more crowded.  Those driving our streets will be more reckless.  Worst-of-all, they will likely bring their democrat ideas with them and ruin things down here the same as they did up there.

Be it know that the voters just put a Friend of Criminals, what I call FOCs in the mayor’s chair. No doubt, as time unfolds, he will make sure to put more FOCs into various city positions. Also, he has friends, AKA as city councilmen and women. If this keeps up, I just might be able to retire.

Wait a minute. I am retired. I am sure you get the idea.

Not a Fan of Crowds

Daily writing prompt
Tell us about a time when you felt out of place.
View all responses

Put me in a crowd and I will head for a corner.

Actually, when I saw the prompt, I had a little laugh. People rarely are interested in anything I want to say. Moreover, much of what I hear in a crowd, I wish I had a way to unhear. (Or un see) Many crowds have folks who are drinking, and I don’t mean tea. I don’t like being around others who are drinking, even one on one.

Very few have any interest in discussing electronics, computers, Christianity or politics. Might I remind that we are cautioned about taking about religion and politics. It somewhat limits my conversation.

As usual, I could talk about the weather. As Mark Twain, said, “Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it.”

I guess old Samuel Clemens never felt out of place. He seemed to always have something to say. I sure wish I had his gift of gab. It sure would be nice to have folks listen to me when explaining the plan of salvation. It would be nice if I could command the attention of thousands when I warn against the fallacies of communism.

Well, little as it is, I do what I can, even though I can’t draw a crowd.

Intelligence and Actors

Posted in Advertising, Bribes, Deceit by

Contrary to the thought of some, it does not take a great deal of intelligence to be an actor, just a script, a good memory and the ability to pretend your something your not. Some might even call it the ability to make believe.

Don’t get me wrong. Some actors are very intelligent, but not all. Take the ad I saw one night. The man stood there and told me I should not let the water run while I brush my teeth…in order to save water.

When I saw the ad, I shook my head and thought about it a while. In this case, I not only knew the actor wasn’t so bright, but one who wrote the script wasn’t all that brilliant either. The man telling me not to waste water likely had a big house that used more water in one day than I use in a month. Moreover, he lives in California where fresh water is far more sparse.

We must remember that the Jessica Fletcher woman doesn’t catch the bad guy because of her incredible abilities observance and deduction. The fact of the mater was that she simply read the script. All those guys on that Scorpion show, they weren’t really geniuses. Even more, most of the things they did on the show would not have worked. Not even the writers were all that smart.

I love the way actors just press one or two keys on a keyboard and poof, the answer pops up on the screen. That is pure Hollywood. First, it usually takes several keys. Second, it generally takes a while. It would seem Microsoft is responsible for that. Windows nowadays is getting slower than molasses.

However, when an actor stands up there and tells us something or other is so, we really need to take it with a grain of salt. All they are doing is reading a script. They may or may not agree with what they read. After all. They are paid for it. When people are paid to say something, it makes it difficult for me to believe they believe what the are saying.

I have some experience on the matter. Some actor stood up there and said how good product xyz is. When I go out and buy that product, I find out the actor was either ignorant or lying. It makes no difference to me which. It amounts to the same thing.

By the way, this sort of goes for baseball and football players too. After all, that athlete is getting a lot of money to say how good the product is, even if he never used it.

One more thing everyone should remember. That actors job is to deceive you, to make you think, if only for a short time, that he is someone, perhaps something he isn’t. If he doesn’t fool you, he isn’t a good actor.

Why the Delay?

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Christian values, Collusion, Controllers, Deceit, Education, Politcal Opinion by

It is no secret that the dems wanted to indict President Trump even as he left office. However, they had a strategy for waiting. First, if he wasn’t going to run again, there was no reason to risk the truth getting out. When he decided to run, the dems figuratively turned all their guns on him and opened rapid fire.

The second and more important reason was that it was far more effective to level the charges during the election.

One aspect they might have overlooked is that the charges could actually fall apart in front of their eyes. The egg on faces would be but a small part of their problems.

On the other hand, Trump just might have a strategy of his own. While he provides the distraction, DeSantis just might slip into office unscathed by the dems dirty tricks. That would provide a probability of a very strong president.

The truth of the matter is that any of the major Republican candidates are lightyears ahead of Old Joe…or any dem for that matter. (Sorry. The lightyear idea is a poor one, but I am sure you get the idea.)

On a side note, I saw on the news that a man is going to prison for tax evasion. My guess is, his real mistake was not having a last name of Biden.

The man is guilty of just 1 year of not paying taxes. Joe’s son, Hunter has admitted to 2 years and is likely guilty of at least 4. However, Hunter is quite safe. Not only does his dad control the justice department, but Hunter also knows where all the skeletons are not so well hidden.

A Second Thought

Posted in Abortions, Abuse of Power, Adam Schiff, Awkward Situation, Christian values, Deceit, Hillary Clinton, January 6, law enforcement, Liberals, Politcal Opinion, Uncategorized by

My original thought was that President Trump should try to have his trials moved. Let’s face it. NY, NY is not a friendly town for him anymore. He used to be popular there. Now, when he is tried there, the chances are pretty good that he would be convicted regardless of how weak the case is against him. I would prefer to have the trial moved up to northern New York where he would stand a better chance of winning.

Then of course, almost any republican would be convicted in DC. The city approaches 100 % democrat. Worse, most are very strong democrat.

However, consider this. What if he were tried in NY, NY and found not guilty. What if her were tried in DC and found not guilty. WOW! Would the dems be red faced then. I mean, it would mean he really was not guilty. It would mean the dems really don’t have any proof of any guilt.

It is sort of the way things went while he was still in office. The dems kept saying that they had proof positive. When it came down to time to show the proof, they had none. In spite of four years of some of the most intensive investigations, they had nothing. Even their accusations fell apart in the end.

I suspect, out of all the things President Trump did that the dems were really angry with, the appointments to the Supreme Court were the one thing that really angered them the most. He caused the fall of their great god of abortion. For that, they decided that he must fry. The decided that it was very important that he be made an example.

If they can’t prove him guilty of anything, then they will have failed miserably, especially if they fail with the home team advantage. They will have the judges. They will have the jury. The one thing they really lack is a case.

However, even if they do manage a conviction, it won’t hold up. You and I both know that. The Supreme Court does not like kangaroo courts. That is exactly what the trial in NY, NY will be as well as the one in DC. They know it. The only reason they try is that they are desperately desperate. Once they lose, they will be in a really awkward situation.

How’s This for a Scenario?

Old Joe fights to maintain his leadership in his party and loses the election to Trump. First day Trump is in office, the price of oil is cut by 25%. In the next week it goes down to $40 a barrel. Russia and Putin go into a tailspin and inside a month they are broke and can’t fight any kind of war. They won’t be able to give their oil or natural gas to anyone.

All those folks in Afghanistan that Trump knows who they are and where they are, decide it is time to head for the hills and Afghanistan become a free country again.

China is afraid that the cost of trade with the US will go up so they start getting more reasonable about Taiwan. Who knows? They might even let go of their hold on Hong Kong.

The folks in Iran are afraid of being picked apart by drone strikes so they agree to give up their effort to build atomic weapons. After a few more months, the money going from Iran into terrorists groups starts drying up so they stop sending rockets into Israel.

All those folks heading the no-justice department are afraid so they start for parts unknown. Possibly, they might join that commie friend of theirs north of the border and find their refuge there. Some might go to Russia or China and find out what it really means to live in country where freedom is no more than a word.

I would hope that Trump would hold some serious housekeeping and fire anyone he can in the leadership of the FBI, CIA, IRS and Justice department. On day two, he can start arranging the return transportation for all illegal aliens. He can tell them that they would be far better off if they go back willingly.

Okay. I know. It is wishful thinking. First he has to get elected. In a country that holds elections like that last one he was in, that is going to be difficult. I mean, when the laws and rules of elections are ignored, it will be a uphill battle all the way. This is especially true when the media is on going to be all out for Joe.

I don’t hold out much hope. However, I think this just might be the last chance for the republic. If Old Joe wins; if the dems win, I’m afraid there will be little left of the constitutional government that so many gave their lives for over the years and over the decades.

Unfortunately, it might also be an end to peace in the Middle East as well. Israel just might have to start fighting for her survival. I don’t have any idea what that will lead to. I sort of hope I won’t be here to see it.

The Mysterious Ray Epps

Well. He’s surfaced. Apparently he has been charged by information, whatever that means. As near as I can tell, he will never spend a day in prison, or jail.

Just try, just try to tell me this does not smell of rotten eggs.

The man was recorded instigating the whole thing. Now he’s going to walk?

My guess is that, if he was not officially on the government payroll, he was likely slipped a few dozen C-notes to wave those folks in. I really don’t know nor do I care if it was from the government or from the dems. I mean, it is right on the video, waving people into the Capitol. By the way, at the least, he ought to be required to tell us what he whispered into that policeman’s ear.

Let’s file this one under, “JUST NOT RIGHT,” ’cause it’s not.
