Irish men need not apply.

Some will recognize the words on signs after the great potato famine. Many, maybe millions immigrated legally to the US. Their number was so great that employers were turning them away so as to hire “Americans.”

Nowadays, we have two more qualifications. When Old Joe looked for a running mate, he basically announced, male whites need not apply.

When he started looking for a Supreme Court Justice, again, he announced Whites & men need not apply. Incidentally, he also eliminated Jews, Asians and Arabs as well.

I do find this odd in a way. The woman he selected for justice admitted she could not define a woman. I am quite sure she could have defined African American.

I laughed when I saw her admit she couldn’t define a woman. I should not have. It’s not humorous, not even a little. Think about it. A woman on the highest court in the land cannot define women. Probably, more accurately, she lied through her teeth in order to be selected. She did not want to be held guilty of being politically incorrect. It would’ve immediately disqualified her.

So. Do we have someone ridiculously dumb or intolerably dishonest. As I think it over, maybe some of both. Regardless. She is qualified. She is a woman, though maybe she isn’t aware of it. She is also black. What more can you ask for?

It is not that it stops there. It has spread throughout industry. Some company needs to hire an electrician, a welder or a plumber. Never mind his skill or experience. The front office says, “We need more minorities. We need more women. Never mind the qualifications. We can teach ’em.”

The odd thing. The signs still say, “Irishmen need not apply.” They lost out then and now.

Seems a number of well known people have died at 76 lately. The thing is, I’m 76.

Can’t complain. I’ve already lived several years longer than I expected. God has been more than gracious to me.

After the shooting in Memphis yesterday, the media is having interviews, in which the people are amazed at what happened. They just don’t get the connection. It is exactly what the dem leaders want. It strengthens their power and power, to them, is what it is all about.

So, when people vote Democrat, they should never be surprised when violence and death are the result.

Watching fishing.

I find it so amazing that they show both on TV. It means there are people who actually watch it.

When I first started this blog, a couple of few years ago, my incorrect assumption was that most if not all of those reading my writings would be in the US, maybe Canada.

It seems, as it worked out, most of my readers are from all parts of the globe. I guess that makes me an international blogger. For sure, I am more than pleased and very thankful. It just surprises me.

I don’t know how the language thing works. Either there are more than a few who understand my English, which I must admit, from time to time I intentionally corrupt for effect. For those whose 2nd or 3rd language is English, it might make things difficult and might lose a little in the translation.

From time-to-time I wonder if some are simply from English speaking countries or parents, conceivably just temporarily international.

Then maybe some are studying English in school or college. In such a case, you would be wise not to use my grammar as a guide. I may speak well, but my writing is horrid.

Regardless, I welcome all comments good or bad, as long as there is no profanity. I have found all comments interesting and informative. More than that, it would be good to hear what you have to say, even if not on the subject.

Most importantly, if I am saying something that is wrong or misunderstood, I need to know, especially if I don’t like it.

It seems the subject of news and talk shows alike. And why shouldn’t it be? It is a very important subject, especially to Israel.

My question is, what is the difference. Iran has, indirectly been attacking Israel ever since Old Joe gave them the financial where-with-all.

The best way to stop Iran is to remove their finances and destroy their ability to wage nuclear catastrophe, be it small or large. Otherwise, as I say, there is no difference between retaliation and attacking.
