The Problem With Dems

Many would say the problem with Dems is that they are communists. Though it would seem that way, they really aren’t communists. It is simply an interim for their real purpose, total control, as suggested in the book and movie, 1984.

They want to be big brother. However, they know it won’t work that way. The book spoiled it. Now we know to look out for big brother. So they are suggesting communism instead. Once they establish communism, then they will quickly establish what they really want, control.

Most of us hated the pandemic and what it brought. The dems loved it. It gave them a reason to control, and control is what they did, even before Old Joe took over the Oval Office. If you think about a while, you will have to agree with me. The pandemic was one of the greatest things that happened to the dems.

One might suggest that it was a huge windfall for them. This would suggest it was not planned. they just took advantage of it. That might be. However, bear in mind that it was the dems that provided monies for the research and it was the dems that helped it spread world wide. And, by the way, it was the dems who absolutely loved it, admit it or not.

They shut down schools, businesses and even some government functions. They stopped travel, where you could eat and where you could buy it. They dictated when and where you could worship, in spite of the 1st amendment and no one dare say anything against their program, again, despite any amendments, for that matter, regardless of the Constitution. As an aside, they just almost bankrupted all airlines.

For a while, they just almost had total control, exactly what they wanted. It was, just what they wanted but for one thing. It came to an end, sort of. We are still stuck with businesses going under and a total disruption to our schools. It took a long time for the airlines to recover, though some would say they are still recovering. Finally, it drove good, patriotic men from the military. Much of what they did cannot be undone.

Also, most people are afraid to say the wrong thing(which is likely the right thing). I’m not. I’m almost 77. If they want to wage a war on me, that’s fine. It won’t last long. Neither will I.

Waste Not, Want Not

Certainly not a new thought. I mean, who was it that said, a penny saved is a penny earned? While true enough, a penny was worth a lot more back then. At that time, a person could live comfortably on a dollar a day.

None the less, let me get back to my point. Likely 4 or 5 decades ago, supermarkets used to donate their food that was out of date but still good to kitchens. There was little chance of it spoiling. The food was likely prepared and served in two days, three at the most.

It really worked well. It actually cost money to have trash trucks haul off good food. The kitchens provided good food for really hungry folks, even Christian oriented outfits.

Then suddenly, it stopped, as they say, instantly. But why? Who was complaining? Who in the world would have an objection to such a good arrangements

Well, as usual, let’s look at the lawyers. They are always looking for a way to spoil things when they can profit on it. Of course the judges must take part of the blame.

A man got sick from the food. A lawyer found out about it and the next thing the store owner knew, he was about bankrupt for doing good. Word got around instantly and no one had to be warned twice.

So, you want to know why the stores don’t give food to charities, that’s it. I am sure it was far more involved. I am sure the trial took a while. I am sure that there were efforts to get the judgement overturned. But in the end, it doesn’t matter, even if the grocer was not at fault.

So, the lawyer made his wages. The person who got the food poisoning got his share of the cash and now the folks who were going to the kitchens go hungry. Who is it that likes that outcome?

Just now, I was watching CBS news. Guess what one of the stories was about. Grocers in San Francisco giving food to charities, as if it’s new thought.

Now that makes me wonder. Just how many lawyers are keeping an eye out, as the wolf waiting for the chance to strike. They might even help things along by feeding a willing accomplice a piece of spoiled meat.

I don’t like the idea. I don’t like wasted food. However, I have no say in the matter. No one asked me to pass a law. If I tried, no one would help me. You see the laws are made by the lawyers and for the lawyers.

For those unaware, the story of the good Samaritan was told as the result of the question, “Who is my neighbor?” Do I need to tell you? It was asked by a lawyer… apparently looking for a loophole in the law, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” I suspect there was a neighbor or two he did not like.

Unfortunately, we do need lawyers. Just not so many. Moreover, maybe we need a few laws to keep them in control.

Kamala’s Doing Well in the Polls

It is easy to understand why. It’s not because of what she is but what she’s not.

She’s not a man. She’s not White and most of all, she’s not Biden. Well, there is one more thing. She has the total backing of the press. You can look high and low to find some mainstream reporter saying anything but good about her. And, I refuse to admit any human is that good. It is as if it’s all a big conspiracy.

May be a Time for a Change in Strategy

Millions have been brought across the border, strictly to increase the chances for the dems. Thousands have been sworn in as citizens, so they can vote. Others will vote without the formality of citizenship. It is entirely possible they might get enough votes to turn the outcome.

Maybe it is time to change the strategy. These people have left countries to get to the US. Why should they continue to live here should they let the communist destroy this country become as their homelands. Maybe we need to point that out to them. If they let the communist destroy things here, what border will they run for then? Maybe it is time for us to start targeting ads to the illegal aliens. Maybe we need to target ads to those who have been rushed into citizenship. Maybe we need to explain it to them them.

It is not my cup of tea. Ever since I have been blogging, I have been trying to stop the rush of illegals into the US; and that has been before Obama. My words were basically, if they had guns and tanks, it would be called an invasion and we would immediately defend ourselves. However, because they have no guns, we allow them to just walk in. While they might not be armed, it is still an invasion and we need to defend ourselves, with weapons if need be.

Nonetheless, it may be too late. The invasion seems to have succeeded with the aid from within. Now, we must be realistic. We need to start an emergency education and tell them just what will happen to them and all of us if the dems win this election. I have no idea if it will work. I don’t know if it will prevent even one bad vote. However, I suspect it might be more important than any of us know to make a try at it.

Then again, I might be reading this all wrong. Maybe their goal was invasion. Perhaps their goal is to take over. If it is, is it too late to stop them?

I Don’t Know but I’ve Been Told

Just a rumor, you know. Still, it wouldn’t surprise me. It sounds completely logical to me. I suppose it is possible even probable that we will never know. With decisions, it is often that way. You hear that someone is considering something and then they not to. You never know if they were considering it or not.

Then too there is my rule concerning rumors. If it is a good rumor, it won’t come true. If it is a bad rumor, it is almost certain to come true. Then too, the worse the rumor, the more certain. And of course, there is the other possibility. If it doesn’t matter if it comes true or not, then obviously, it doesn’t matter if it comes true. Hence, one my favorite saying, if it doesn’t matter, then it doesn’t matter.

Still if I were a gambling man, and I’m not, I’d put my money on the rumor as being true. It would be a very safe bet. It would never be provable either way. I would at least suspect the idea was at least brought up and discussed for a while. Some advantages would be brought up. Then they would bring up the problems it would cause.

It does make me wonder if Kamala will even be brought in on the discussion. I mean, just because she’d the candidate, why should she have any say-so. Besides, her candidacy was not earned. It was handed to her on a silver platter. She never received a vote. It was an emergency situation, you know. They couldn’t stay with Old Joe. I would say figuratively they would have had to drag him across the finish line; however, in this case, it might be literal.

Worse, the damage had been done and it was getting worse every day. The Old Joe race was slowing to a casual walk.

At first it was starting to look really good for Kamala, but it was soon discovered that she does not do well as a public speaker. Actually, she is lousy at it. Maybe that is what she is doing in the basement now, learning how to read one of those fancy speech making machines.

The problem is, now they are discovering a new problem, a weight that is slowing the race down. Apparently, some habitual liars have real problems when they claim they did things in the military when they didn’t, especially when they turned tail and run the first time there is a chance there is going to be some shooting at something other than a paper target.

So, the rumors start. Indeed, I suspect it is even now being considered. To be sure, they might even now be looking for a replacement for a running mate.

As I say, wouldn’t surprise me none. Wouldn’t surprise me if they replace him. Wouldn’t surprise me if they don’t. At this point, they would have a very difficult time finding a dog catcher who would be willing to take the job. Who would be willing to be connected to this disaster. Hence, we will never know if the rumor was true or not.

Let’s be real. I am sure the subject came up. Most everyone would have to admit it is only logical.

Officially Ignorant, Maybe Worse

Kamala says she will get rid of the filibuster. Sorry. She lost her chance to do anything about that. The president has no control over it. It is a rule set up by the senators and no one else.

Kamala can spend her entire life jumping up and down and throwing a temper tantrum. Only a vote of Senate can change it. Because she was a senator, if nothing else, she should know that.

Guess what, I learned it in the 8th grade. Why didn’t she?

Moreover, the real purpose of the filibuster is to protect the little guy. It keeps the majority from ruling over the minority. Without the filibuster, those with the money and power can rule over the little guy.

It can be a very frustrating thing, but it is a good thing, which the dems likely have used more than the Republicans. It can be used to protect. On the other hand it can be and has been used in abuse.

Why Have Primaries?

We could save millions of dollars. Think of all the money we spend in having primaries. What we could do is just find someone who no likes and let him or her represent the party. That would work, right?

What is it that I’m referring to? If you don’t know, I’ll explain it. Old Joe won the primary. He received about 14 million votes. He was going to represent the Democrat party. Then, a horrible thought occurred to the hierarchy of the party. If Old Joe were to run, he would lose. Worse, it would cause the loss of many of the down ballot races. They realized if they let Old Joe run, the damage would not only be severe in near future but also in the long run.

The truth is that they would spend decades recovering. Most everyone realized it. Mostly, those who provided campaign funds realized it and withheld their money. Panic ensued. And so it is, in a few minutes, a few men, as it were, in smoke filled rooms decided to negate the votes of millions of voters.

I can understand it. It really does make sense. The problem is that it’s not kosher. It is not the way things are suppose to be done.

However, they decided to take matters into their own hands. No one told them to do it. They just decided to do it all by themselves. The first thing, they knew they had to get Old Joe to stop aside. It seemed so easy. All they needed to do was offer him some money and ask politely for him to step aside.

The problem was, it didn’t work. Then there was more panic. They thought about doing this. They thought about doing that. I am sure they even considered backing a third candidate. It all just came back to the one problem. Old Joe was still in the way.

They visited him again. This time they not only sweetened the retirement, but they added a threat. Well, you and I will never be privy to the conversations. We will never know exactly what was said. I am sure there were no recorders allowed. I don’t think they allowed any stenographers. I am sure they made sure there were no bugs or listening devices. If the actual conversations were to get out, it would be the death of the democrat party and no one wanted that.

At any rate, for some time, they continued to dangle and enlarge the carrot while they kept to threaten and enlarge the stick. Finally, it worked. Whatever the threat, whatever the enticement, he finally accepted the deal.

Then, in a matter of a few hours, millions of votes were negated. They were not given any option. They weren’t asked about it. They were not asked to raise their hands if they agreed.

I would like to think the Republican party wouldn’t do something like that. I don’t know.

Nonetheless, if Kamala goes on to become president, it would be the result of the least democratic method by a party that claims that Trump wants to do away with democracy. Indeed, it is the party that claims it champions democracy. So much for their premises. We know the truth now. It’s about power, not democracy.

If it’s really about the power, and it is, why even go through the primaries? It would seem to be just one huge ruse. It’s one huge expensive fraud. Their goal is, “We chose, you go along like it or not.”

And… Let’s not forget. The media has helped the power brokers all the way, even to the point of changing Kamala’s history in less than a week.

As the Youth Die

When I wrote my book, “Mitch” I tried to put passages in it that would drive the youth away from drugs. As you can see, that didn’t work. Not many read the book. If they read it, they haven’t paid any attention. I would say my words fall on deaf ears, but they fact is my words don’t reach their ears.

In one of the passages, the main character, Mitch, is explaining to Margo one of his worst fears as policeman in drug enforcement is to one day look down the barrel of a gun held by a twelve year-old. In the book, he doesn’t explain it further. The reason for his fear is obvious. Does he kill the youth in self-defense or because of his age, does he allow the youth to pull the trigger on him?

As I wrote the words, and more over the years, I do wonder if there are similar situations that police officers are put in from time to time. I suspect it does happens. Sometimes the officer allows the youth to pull the trigger. In some cases, the officer pulls the trigger, knowing that he will live with the regret… knowing that those who appointed him to protect and serve will accuse him forever and a day. For sure, many times the officer goes to prison.

Don’t get me wrong. The officer is not always right to pull the trigger. I would never make a good cop. I would be among those that might pull the trigger when the kid has a B-B gun. Then I would have to suffer the rest of my life knowing that I made a mistake, though it isn’t really a mistake. B-B guns frequently do look like real guns, especially in the heat of the moment.

When I was a kid, that sort of thing didn’t happen. Why is it so commonplace today? There might be many reasons. However, I know of two. When I was a kid, kids were not involved in crime. Today, it is more and more common for younger and younger kids to have real guns and pull the trigger with little or no reason. Without police, the eleven and twelve-year-olds would be shooting each other as, to some degree, they do today.

The second reason is a little more difficult to see, but it’s there. The proliferation of the drug culture. At first, it was just the adults that were the only ones shooting at each other over the drugs and money. I guess, in the future we can look forward to 10 or even 9-year-olds shooting at each other.

As the youth die, the dems don’t care. They do nothing to curtail drug use. In fact, they seem to do things to encourage it and the accompanying violence, you know, like letting the cartel import the poison over the border.

You never, ever see the dems shedding a tear at the loss of the lives of children, actually over anyone. It facilitates the goals of ridding the country of law enforcement by decreasing their funding, which only adds to the problem, which, of course is by design.

I Was Wrong

I’m really slipping. Second time this month. At any rate, to the best of my knowledge, Old Joe is still hold up in his home and saying he will not come out and play the games the godfathers of the Democrat party want to play.

I’m not sure, but I’d guess that the dems will start getting serious with the threats. On the other hand, Old Joe is likely pointing out a few skeletons the dems are hiding in their closets. I think what we are seeing here is a real power war held within the Democrat Party and they are firing salvos at each other daily, if not more frequently.

The disadvantage to the dems is that when fighting is internal, the damage can be severe and long lasting. But what else can they do? If Biden holds onto the nomination, the dems know it will be a crash and burn election. The power that they have been fighting for will figuratively go up in smoke inside a month or two after Trump takes the oath. They know Trump will not just threaten to reverse their accomplishments, he will do it. He did it before. Unlike any of the former Republican presidents, Trump owes nothing to anyone and he will close the border and open the oil spigots.

The county club republicans won’t like actually having to pay an honest wagees for labor and the dems won’t like losing all those wonderful potential voters. Iran, Russia, Iraq and the Saudis will not like the drop in oil prices. The Ruskies will have to give up their efforts to take over the world until another dem takes over the Oval Office.

You want to see how the dems try to do damage control, just keep an eye on the news for the next couple of months.

Just one more little reminder. The dems still have the 25th amendment. They can remove Old Joe from office in ten minutes. However, Old Joe will still remain the Democrat candidate for president. I am sure Kamala is also well aware of it. It puts her in a real quandary. Does she remain with Joe and figuratively go down with the ship, which will end her career; or does she abandon her “fearless leader,” and fall in line with her communists comrades.

Any way you look at it, I don’t see her winning. Even if she stays with Joe and they win, she will have distanced herself from the party. The only hope she would have is that she might say she did it for the party. Using the 25th after Joe takes his oath, Joe would be removed from office and she would be president; the first black woman pres. However, who in the world would she pick to be her VP? She just might have to get very desperate to find someone who would be willing.

Well, I suppose her husband would volunteer, but I’m not sure. He likely knows her too well.

THIS JUST IN. As they say, reliable sources suggest that there is an agreement, so to speak, a gentleman’s agreement. Old Joe would not pull out of the race, but he would lose the candidacy during the Democrat convention.

Well, that’s what I heard. This, of course brings up many questions. Can they really manage it? It would take very little to cause it all to blow up in everyone’s face. Just how will that play in the general election? Somehow they will have to explain how the leaders of the Democrat Party, the guardians of the democracy, just threw away the results of 14 million votes in the rank and file of the party.

I mean, I know why they would do it. They don’t want to lose the general election. They don’t want to lose their power. It is, as I aforementioned. It’s their damage control; AKA, panic.

Would this mean I was actually right. I wished I could say so, but no. I was still no. My guess was that he would already be out of the race. Besides, we still do not know how this will play out. As the guy said, Man’s best plans…

The Tragedy

There will be many that will disagree with me. Then again, as I have said before. I try to be honest in my posts in the way I think and feel. I do believe, frequently, I do have proper and or logical reasons for what I write.

There has been a recent news story about a 13 year-old shot by police in Utica. To be sure, I cannot claim I know everything about the situation other than it was a tragedy and that should never have happened. Yet, it happens all the time. As I said in one of my first posts, sometimes decisions are made that cannot be undone. I did so by saying that life does not have “undo” functions. There are no backspace keys. I used the case of an old woman shooting her own son thinking that he was a burglar. Certainly that woman would have done anything to reverse the last ten minutes. But, sometimes, it is just impossible to change the past.

Sometimes, while driving, I take a wrong turn. It can have consequences, but generally, I think little of it. On the other hand, I have made mistakes, big ones that I will never be able to change. It does happen. I am sure most others have too.

Going back to the shooting and what I know and what I suspect. I would think right now, the officer that shot that boy would do just about anything if he could hit that backspace key. When he left for work that day, I am pretty sure he did not say to himself, You know, I think I will just shoot a 13 year-old-boy today. It was not part of his plan. It was likely the farthest thing from his mind.

In one of my books, a detective told a woman that his greatest fear was to look down the barrel of gun being held by some 14-year-old. The book is fiction. However, I am sure many policemen do live in that fear for real.

As near as I can tell, he saw the pellet gun and thought it was real. So I ask, one and all. If you were a policeman and some thirteen-year-old was pointing a gun at you, would you shoot him or would you let him shoot you and others.

As I said, it was and is tragic. It should have never happened. As with most tragedies, there were likely many things that led to the time the officer pulled the trigger. Now, I am going to guess at some of it. They said he was an alien. I would suspect he and his parents were here illegally.

Does that make it alright to shoot him. Of course not. However it is part of what led to what happened. He ran from the policeman. Why? Maybe because he was illegal and didn’t want to be caught. No one will really know the reason he ran.

The instant the policeman confronted him, he should have told the officer he had a pellet gun and then followed the instructions. Regardless, run or not, he should have never pulled the gun out. He had to know the policeman would have thought it was real.

Running was a mistake. Pulling the gun was a mistake. Then again, 13-year-olds do make mistakes. I certainly did. It just so happens, the mistakes he made became fatal.

And now, the shooting will have repercussions. It will change the life of the officer who shot him. It will likely change the city and the police department. I guess it can be said that there are and will have repercussions throughout the country.

There will be those who will say the officer should not have shot. There will be those who will rush to the officer’s defense. I suspect that few will consider that which led up to the tragedy.

In the end, as bad as it is, we the public will have to face it. It was a horrible accident. However, it was an accident. It was one that did result in a death, which I hate and I’m sure most others dislike it too.

Now, let’s get realistic. As the official observer of Memphis, I notice that there are shootings about everyday in the city. It seems there is an average of a murder a day and most go unsolved. There are just so many they don’t have the manpower.

Where is the concern for those lives. And I might mention, many of those people killed are not running from the police. Sometimes we are talking of children lying in their bed at the time the bullet hits them. Where is the concern for them? Where is the outrage? Why are we releasing people guilty of crimes involving guns without bond?

Sorry. I don’t understand the outrage of a policeman doing his job and the lack of outrage at real murders and murderers.

Also, let’s take another look at the media. Why do they like to make the officer the villain before the investigation is started, while making the criminal just an unfortunate man down on his luck. To me, that in itself is a tragedy.
