Month: November 2017

So, you heard the story yesterday right? Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi were no-shows for the meeting with the President and the two republican leaders. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the proposed tax bill.

Early Tuesday morning, well before the meeting, President Trump tweeted “Chuck and Nancy are for open borders, weak on the military and illegals. I don’t see a deal.”

This morning all over the internet the headlines read “Chuck and Nancy refused to go to meeting after Trump attacked them!”

Here’s my two cents:  First off, I hardly call President Trump’s tweet an attack. These two, so called Democratic leaders are crybabies. All Trump did was set the stage for the meeting with them. His tweet was letting them and us know that he is not interested in open borders, illegals walking the streets of America and not interested in lack of funding for the military. Fat boy Kim of North Korea actually did the President a favor (hey maybe there is collusion there. We better investigate) by shooting off another rocket.  That only proved the President’s point that building up the military is more important than ever.

Their absence reminded me of a school boy telling his mommy that some other boy was mean to him so he isn’t going to school today. Seriously though, this was truly childish. I guess, somehow, they think this was showing how strong they are, they took a stance, “we refuse to let the President insult us anymore.”  Of all people to talk about insults, the Dems have done nothing but insult the President from day one and not by some tweet but in front of microphones. Impeach the President, they decry. Sure, impeach him for what? Because you don’t like him or don’t agree with him? I hate to sound like Fox News but, they are OK with all the stunts Hillary, Bill and Obama pulled over the last eight years but, Trump should be impeached? No hypocrisy there…

It’s stuff like this that makes the Democrats look so stupid and why they lost the election in the first place but, I digress.

In the real world, wouldn’t a stunt  like Chuck and Nancy pulled have gotten them fired or at least written up.

Example:  A large company with shareholders. The CEO calls a meeting with his top four executives. Knowing that two of these executives do not see eye to eye with him, the CEO sends out a memo letting the company, the shareholders and these two know exactly what his stance is. Like Chuck and Nancy, neither show for the meeting because in their eyes they were “attacked.”

Same question, are they fired, do they quit? Worse, have they let their shareholders down? Yes they have because some of the shareholders agree with their stance and not the CEO’s. But, because they didn’t show up, there is no discussing their concerns nor their ideas. There is no back and forth, and zero chance of somehow convincing the CEO to see their side of anything.  The CEO moves forward with his/her plans.

The reality is, the two attending the meeting may have had a few good things to bring to the table for their shareholders, they might have been able to help the CEO see things differently making whatever plans he/she had even better.  But, the shareholders, the CEO and the two executives will never know, will they? Because instead of a good ole fashion debate, these two took their handkerchiefs and hid in their offices instead of doing their jobs.

I don’t see how the stunt these two so called Democratic leaders pulled is any different than my example.  But, in Washington you get away with crap like this. I think both Chuck and Nancy should resign! They let half of the entire country down by not attending the meeting.

What do I know? I feel like Trump is willing to deal with anyone to be successful. He wants these tax cuts for America and for him personally in order to put a W on the board. Both of these leaders had an opportunity at least to try to debate and get some of what they want. Instead they got nothing but a news conference.

I completely believe that President Trump does not want to kick the dreamers out of the country. Like a smart businessman however, he is playing hard ball and using this issue to make sure he gets the things done that won him the election.  In this case tax cuts and a big, beautiful wall.

The top story this morning is the news of Charles Manson dying at the age of 83, after being jailed for 48 years .  Whatever he was, he has finally died and left us with the joy of no longer having to look at his face.

48 years in prison is a perfect example of waste beyond waste of tax payer dollars. I understand we want to do everything possible to make sure we get the conviction correct, but 48 years? Millions upon millions have been spent holding this murder and feeding and housing him on the tax payer dime.

I don’t have a lot to say about this and really don’t want to give this rotten individual another minute of air time. I simply want to point out that keeping people like him alive for this many years is an insult to those he killed and their families and an insult to tax payers. He should have been hung by the neck in downtown San Francisco three decades ago.  Hopefully now, the very face of evil will no longer hit our television and news stands. You know, once all the media outlets get done printing his story, again…

As is my routine, this morning I was browsing through online articles. This is always a depressing adventure because now-a-days finding a feel-good story is nearly impossible and trying to weed through what is real and what is phony is, well, impossible. All I can do is rely upon my own opinion and if proven wrong somewhere down the road, learn from it admit it and keep plowing forward through all the BS.

This morning though it hit me. Obama made it clear during his acceptance speed that he would fundamentally change America. Whether you’re an Obama fan or not, and I certainly am not, you have to admit, he accomplished this task.

Just for fun, think about it. Today, being white is bad, being successful is bad, wanting to have secure borders, bad. Being against anything that is illegal, bad. Being a man and choosing to stay a man, bad. Oil, bad. Coal, bad. Corporations, bad. Wall Street, bad. Wanting to save the life of the unborn, bad. Owning a gun, bad. Believing in God, bad. Being married to a women, bad. Not wanting to be forced to pay for other peoples insurance, bad. Disagreeing with nearly anything, you’re a racist, hell, I’m a racist for not liking Obama’s policies. I’m a racist if I think the black, brown, yellow or purple person was wrong about anything. If I voted for Trump I am a deplorable person not fit to walk the face of the earth. Putting America first, bad. Putting family first, bad. Having a different opinion from the left, bad. Demanding legal immigration, bad.  Being patriotic, bad.

There is simply no end to this list and the few things noted above weren’t always true. If you want to be the scum of the earth then be for any or all of these things and then you’ll join me in being, “bad” and be part of what is wrong with America – or  so says the left wing loons. Not all, but most. Obama has indeed succeeded to fundamentally change America. And it’s fair to say, not for the good.

I’ll stay a man, stay married to my wife, work hard, pay my own way, call people out despite their color when I think they’re wrong and stick up for them when I think they’re right, I’ll go shoot my guns, read my bible, put oil in my car and proudly hang my damn flag. As deplorable as that may be.

Sincerely, Mr. Bad

So yesterday, five Democratic law makers stood before the microphone and called for the impeachment of President Trump. The reasons given are completely baseless and the worst part is, they know it. Yet, they stood before the cameras to announce this to their fellow law makers and the world.

These law makers are perfect examples of what is wrong with Washington. Both houses have as low an approval rating as one can have yet they plow forward with their political agendas basically flipping the voters the middle finger.

Do these morons have any idea what impeaching the President would do to this country? The division we have is bad enough (thank you Obama).  Impeaching the President would truly create a second civil war.  Even the stunt they performed yesterday creates further divide and the message it sends to the rest of the world, one can only imagine.  Such announcements not only divide us more but undermine our national security and standing in the world. We have a President trying to get things done, trying to protect us, trying to enlist the help of the world and we have these five guys cutting the legs out from under the President.  Translation: cutting the legs out from under us, the American people.

It is my humble opinion these law makers should be impeached. I understand free speech and know the importance of it but, these are people in leadership positions who are literally working to undermine our country, our people, they are no better than Russian spies. Free speech is one thing but these idiots are supposed to do the work of the people not the work of a party. They don’t care about us and by way of their actions, they certainly don’t care about America.

I keep blogging to these radical leftest asking them to tell me specifically what it is that the President has done to be impeached?  Don’t make shit up, give me factual evidence. They can’t because there isn’t any.

The same is with all of the claims that the President is racist. Where does this come from? What has he specifically done that is racist?  And for God’s sake, don’t tell me it’s because of his stance on immigration, the wall or the dreamers.  None of these are racistl.  These are things that involve up-holding the law of the land and protecting us.  The travel ban, that’s racist too according to the left. Really? Where do these people (the left) come from, what planet do they live on? We finally have a President that is doing something to keep us as safe as possible and the left wants to impeach him.

I work really hard attempting to understand what goes on in the heads of the left.  When it comes to putting America first, I can’t get to a point of understanding.  Open borders, sanctuary cities, Obamacare, being okay with Hillary deleting emails after the FBI telling her not to, oh hell, the list is so long you hardly have the time to hear it all.

To end, when we have elected officials undermining our country we have a problem and that’s where we are today.  The Democratic leadership better put these five law makers in their place and fast, otherwise to paraphrase Obama, the bible carrying, gun holding folks are going to revolt.  God Bless America.

Today is Veterans Day, a day we should all pause to say thanks for their service and sacrifice. Without them our lives would be much different.

I cannot tell you how many times in my life I’ve watch a news story or a documentary showing the awful living conditions in other countries, the killings, the oppression, the lack of food or water or clothing and mostly the lack of freedom. Each time I see this, I find myself silently saying, “thank God I was born an American.”

We all take so much for granted, most of us really have no clue how very fortunate we are.

While we can argue about the wars and conflicts we’ve fought, those that have gone out in uniform to serve on our behalf must always be remembered, must always be given our deepest respect and heart felt gratitude.  Without their sacrifices we would not have the freedoms we have nor enjoy the lives we enjoy.

Stand up for our veterans and thank them for their service. When you see the old retired vet proudly wearing a hat announcing his/her service walk right over to him or her, look them squarely in the eye and say “thank you for your service.” They appreciate it and it is the very least we can do, they’ve earned our unending gratitude.

Today especially, stand up and be counted, show your respect and be thankful.

God Bless our Veterans and all those who serve to protect us.  

This morning there is an article on Yahoo quoting Dianne Feinstien saying gun control will end once the Nation decides it’s unacceptable to allow guns in Churches, Schools and so on. She said it will end once the Democrats regain control of Congress. Wonder why you on the left didn’t end it the last time you were in control of both houses and had the white house too?

I am one of these Americans that scratches his head when the left start attacking our right to arms. I am also like millions of others who simply cannot understand the thinking of the left on this issue and to be honest, most other issues too.

Introducing stricter gun control only punishes law abiding Americans and places them in greater danger. Why doesn’t the left understand that the killers and the mentally ill don’t follow laws? Why does this issue have to be about anything other than this simple truth?

The left could round up every gun in America and melt them down.  All that would be accomplished is that the evil law breakers would have guns. No law is going to stop the people who want to kill. No law is going to stop the underground sale of guns. Such a law will punish good, honest, law abiding people and leave them without a means to protect themselves.

Any reasonable person whether a law maker or citizen ought to be able to understand this. I would argue that there is not a law on the books today that isn’t being broken everyday by someone.

Finally, to Ms. Feinstein, you say that killings like this horrible one that just occurred in Texas will not end until we Americans decide we don’t want guns in Churches, Schools, and anywhere in public. I’d say that Americans already have the desire to not have guns in these places. Having said that, until such time that you and the left figure out how to remove the evil and sick from earth, we gun owners will continue to fight for the right to protect each other and even protect people like you.
