Month: November 2018

Believe it or not, there is more to me than just politics. While I admit I am a political junkie I do enjoy other things in life.

What makes you smile came to me this afternoon when I was surfing around on twitter and happened across a video of a female soldier.  She had just landed and was walking through the airport when a friend of hers lets go of the leash so her dog could greet her. Watch the video below, I am certain it will make you smile too.

So for the fun of it, I thought I’d share with you some of the things in life that make me smile.

In no particular order:

• When I get up in the morning and the coffee is already made (Thank you hon!)
• When I crawl into bed at night at the sheets are freshly clean and the pillows are cold
• When my dog catches the ball in mid-air
• The look on my wife’s face when I bring her flowers
• When I am sitting in the lobby and the massage therapist comes out and says Dan?
• When following a medical procedure, the doctor says “everything looks good”
• When one of my boys says “Love you”
• Anytime my wife brags about me
• When the lady in front of me at the grocery store has a full basket turns to me and says “go ahead of me” And when I do the same to others
• When a neighbor says “Your place really looks nice”
• When one of my boys gets a promotion at their job
• When something is broken and I fix it
• When someone is sad and I make them laugh
• When one of the boys call asking for advice
• Whenever I think of my mom, my dad, my grandpa and my brothers (they’re all gone now)
• When someone tells me they are going to do something and then does
• When I open the door for a stranger and they say thank you
• When I thank a soldier for his/her service and they smile
• When anyone asks for a hug
• When I fell a tree and it lands where I wanted it to
• When I find something I thought I had lost
• A good country song like; “I’m Proud To Be An American” or “Okie From Muskogee” or “A Father’s Love Never Dies.” Among many.
• Going back to places where I lived as a child
• Saying Merry Christmas
• Looking at old family pictures
• Holding my breath underwater longer than the kids can
• Flipping the toggle switch raising the gear (wheels) up after take off
• Driving a new car off the lot
• Having the entire family sitting around our dining table for dinner
• Seeing your son tear up with pride
• Having your grown kid say “now I know what you meant”
• When my flight departs on time
• When my flight lands
• My sister’s fried chicken
• My wife’s potatoes
• When I weigh less than I thought
• Floating in the pool
• Winning
• When God answers my prayers
• Making this list
• You taking the time to read it

These are things that came to me without much thought. I highly recommend you take the time to make your own list because you know what? You’ll be surprised how many things actually make you smile and even better, you’ll no sooner get done with your list and look forward to your next smile.

It is so easy now-a-days to get buried in the negative. Sadly, we are surrounded, bombarded with it 24/7. Just remember the one thing you have control over is you. Choose to smile.

The Mindless Drones & Civil War

The days of taking the middle ground have long since passed. Sitting on the political fence is no longer an option if you care at all about personal liberty. The invasion of our country is real and I am not just talking about the one at our southern border. Although, to be clear; that is a part of the organized movement toward the removal of the America that we’ve been fighting for since the beginning.

I’ve been asked if I think there will ever be another civil war. My response? “Today’s version of the civil war began after the first year Obama was elected and has been quietly growing ever since.”

Michelle Obama wrote in her book that she will never forgive President Trump for promoting the Barack birther question. I was never one of the theorists that bought into this. I must say though, Trump has been right so often, I’d be lying if I don’t consider it. This theory, coupled with the fundamental anti-American actions taken by Obama makes it hard to believe he is an American. Then again, just look at the millions of mindless, almost drone like people who still promote the Obama globalist agenda.

I think what makes President Trump so dramatically shocking to the liberal left is the fact that he is the exact opposite in his beliefs from those of Obama. In this, there are no gray areas. One promotes America first and one doesn’t.

I used to be more open minded, willing to listen and make an earnest attempt to understand the Left’s point of view(s). Under Obama’s leadership though, those days are gone. Obama has moved half of the country so far off of the common sense cliff, I can’t understand them and in fact I can no longer even listen to them. Their radical anti-American stance on nearly everything is beyond unacceptable and it is a pathway to literal destruction of the American way of life. Our liberty, freedom and justice is slowly eroding into chaos and millions of the mindless drones are allowing it to happen.

Also this week, Hillary (will she ever admit defeat and just go away?) announced that Fox news was the right arm of the republican party and is playing a role in the demise of the moral fabric of the country. The drones hear these comments and believe them even though they never watch Fox News. The free minded American hears this and asks; “It isn’t enough, is it Hillary, to have ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, All of the major suburban newspapers, most of the internet and all of Hollywood, but you need Fox News too?” By the way, those of us who consider ourselves free minded American loving patriots aren’t all that happy with Fox now-a-days either but for very obvious and different reasons.

I don’t honestly know how you can possibly care about our country and still remain a Democrat. Better said, you cannot honestly care about our country if you remain a registered Democrat. Even better, are you an American or a Democrat? You can’t be both.

This week, another liberal judge in the leftist California 9^th circuit ruled on Trump’s Executive Order which stated anyone seeking asylum into the U.S. must do so by going through any one of the official border crossings. Translation, you cannot swim across the Rio Grande, sneak up through the bushes, climb over the fence and illegally enter the country and be granted asylum. You must do it legally. The liberal judge ruled this unconstitutional. The Left cheered the ruling, Hollywood cheered the ruling, every mainstream media outlet cheered the ruling and thus the mindless drones followed.

Even seeing thousands of migrants occupying Tijuana and committing crimes, and observing Mexican citizens clashing with these occupiers, our own courts and our own people on the Left cheer this ruling; basically giving the green light for these people to storm our country and do as they wish. Tell me how this is good for America, good for you and me?

This isn’t surprising.  The one thing I’ll say about the Left, they’ve been extremely clear as to their intentions. They’ve been telling us all along that they care more about the illegal alien than the American citizen. They have called us racist because we want to control our borders and want to have a say in who can or cannot enter our country.

When we didn’t elect Hillary, we became sexist, deplorable, uneducated, pieces of shit Walmart shoppers. I believe it was former Vice President Biden who called us the dregs of society.  In a speech just this week, Obama even added that we on the right have mommy issues. This is the Democratic Left.  This is who we have allowed to run our country for the previous eight years and this is who the country gave control of the House of Representatives to just two weeks ago.

Whether you want to acknowledge it or not, the Left is in an all-out civil war with us. They have only one goal in mind and that is to again gain their power back and they will do so at all costs.

When I went to bed a little after midnight on election night the Democrats had won 27 seats in the House. Two weeks after the election, that number is nearly 40 seats. Does that bother you at all? Do you find it at all questionable that not one of these too-close-to-call races for the House, not one, turned in favor of a Republican? Every race that counted ballots after the polls closed went to a Democrat. I am not a sore loser, I know how to lick my wounds and keep working but, not one of these favored our side? Please. When a Democrat loses an election the Right is charged with voter suppression. When a Democrat wins an election the people have spoken… Take the Governor’s race in Georgia for example. The Republican winner beat his opponent by 50,000+ votes on the night of the election. His Democratic opponent refused to concede and in fact it wasn’t until two weeks later that she had no other choice but to concede. In her speech she said that she will concede to the fact that her opponent received more votes but made it clear that it was not a fair election because of voter suppression. In this case, voter suppression occurred because Georgia cleaned up their voter rolls prior to the election. God forbid a state should do that…  What does that mean? It means that they removed anyone off the voter rolls who had since died or had been identified as not being a legal American citizen. That will lose a Democrat an election every time. Those bastard-Walmart-shopping Republicans stole the Governorship. The dead have rights too! I know for a fact that the only time you’ll catch me voting for a Democrat will be when I’ve long since passed.

The Left’s entire platform is anti-American and completely devoid of any common sense. They have openly stated that they want to completely dismantle ICE.  What does ICE do? They arrest criminal aliens who have committed crimes such as drug and human trafficking. Those bastards in ICE are even so bold as to bust down doors in the middle of the night and arrest illegal aliens who have committed murder upon one of our fellow Americans. Bastards! No, unlike what the Left attempts to make you believe, ICE has nothing to do with border control. That is the responsibility of the border patrol agents. Thus the name… The mindless drones aren’t interested in the facts though. They watch, hear and believe the MSM.

The Left knows that their mindless-drone-followers are so programmed that they can say and do anything and still be supported. The Trump supporters are the same way. The only difference is the Trump supporters love America and want Government the hell out of our lives.

Davis was a Democrat who aligned with the confederacy

A great example of this is Obamacare. No one in their right mind can say that Obamacare was a good thing (unless of course you don’t pay taxes and get it for free). We lost our doctors, couldn’t keep our medical plans and today we pay double for coverage than we did BOC (before Obamacare). Yet, the Left made this one of their number one political talking points in the last election. Why? Because their base is the non-tax payer, the ultra-elite rich billionaire/Hollywood and the illegal sucking the tit of the American taxpayer. The Left promotes socialism (all things free at the cost of you and me). The mindless drones will march in the streets and beat you with a club if you disagree. You have to laugh don’t you? I mean if socialism is so damn great why aren’t all of these Central Americans marching into Venezuela instead of the U.S.? Hell, it’s even closer.

Another example of the mindless drone voter is the economy. Nancy Pelosi, when asked what she and her party would focus on if they won back the House said, among many things, the economy. Even with more Americans back to work than ever before, more black and Hispanic employment than ever and more women working than in the past 30 years, she and the Left feel so emboldened, they say that they will make the economy better. They say this with a straight face even though we all just came off of eight years of economy hell. For the first time in 20 years, wages have increased. Increased! Yet the Left knows their audience, they know the mindless drones have been so brainwashed that they will believe anything they say.

The Left, mostly to Obama’s credit has convinced not only the American drones/sheep but all of Europe that loving one’s country isn’t patriotic and in fact is a very bad thing. Trump said he considers himself a nationalist, meaning he puts America first. This has been condemned by all of the American Left and Globalists around the world. It is unimaginable that an American President would put his country first. Even the German Chancellor this week condemned this; stating that all nations must be prepared to give up certain rights in order to bring the world together as one. Sounds so nice doesn’t it. This is maybe the worst country of all countries to have this mindset. We lost thousands upon thousands of American lives to save Germany from the very thing she is now promoting. This One World Order approach would make Hitler proud… Had the Chancellor made this speech at any college campus in America or during the Oscars she would have received a standing ovation.

So there you have it patriot friends. Do I think there will ever be a civil war again? It is upon us as I type. Our enemy this time isn’t the south or the north, it is however our mindless neighbors, our elite globalist media and the far Left Democrats backed by our beloved Hollywood (not an ounce of real life common sense among them); all morons.

Fight for your liberty or lose what little of it you have left. It’s bad enough that I won’t be allowed to sit my granddaughter on my lap and let her steer the car or ride in the back of my pick-up. It’s a shame a man can no longer open the door for a women. It’s too bad I can’t keep more of the money I earn. So sad that in today’s America I am afraid to promote my President with a bumper sticker or hat. But the mindless drones are out there looking for me just waiting for a chance to put me down. We are living in a time were tax cuts are considered a bad thing. Where more people working and less collecting food stamps is simply unacceptable. The Left will punish you if you choose America first. We are like the old underground in Germany and France during WWII. Today, we dare not stand up for our flag much less openly recite the pledge of allegiance. But don’t worry, there will never be another civil war…

California on Fire, Again

How horrible are these fires? The deaths and so many homes gone, it is nothing short of heartbreaking.

The President weighed in early when the first fire in the south raged by blaming California for choosing to place restricting regulations on the treatment of the forests. Governor moonbeam Brown moved more than a billion dollars out of forest management to other pet projects like feeding, housing and educating illegals.

Having said that, is the President right to lay blame on Brown and California leadership in general? Translation, Democrats?

You know I am going to agree with the President right? I am sorry for being so predictable. I promise you, when the President is wrong I’ll be all over him! I promise. He is however, right on this.

No one can stop forest fires. I’ll never forget the time my boys and I were driving down the freeway in southern California on our way to Six Flags. While driving we came upon a fire on the right side of the freeway, it was burning the very dry grass and spreading extremely fast. As it turned out, there was someone a few miles ahead of us, who had been stopping on the side of the freeway lighting the grass on the fire. The fire was put out fairly quickly and thankfully no structures were damaged and no loss of life.

Setting the crazy-ass arsonist aside, Mother Nature will cause fires, accidents will cause fires and stupid people will cause fires. Sadly, Smoky the Bear was wrong when he said “only you can prevent forest fires.”  Having lived in the Sierra Nevada Mountains for 30 years and watching Mother Nature throw down lightning bolts cutting trees in half and starting fires, I say it again, there is no way to stop the fires from happening. Some say this is Mothers Nature’s way of ensuring our forest remain healthy. I don’t know about that but I do know that thinning the forest absolutely does create a healthier environment.

Ensuring a safer forest isn’t rocket science. It’s all about the fuel right? The more fuel to burn the more the fire spreads, gets hotter and more dangerous. There honestly isn’t much more to it than that.

California has laws that avoid any resemblance of common sense. Did you know that when an old growth redwood, or any redwood tree falls down due to age or wind or whatever the reason is, California will not allow you to harvest that tree? They would rather the tree lay there and rot than for anyone to remove it and turn it into lumber or firewood or chips or paper. Tell me how that makes any sense at all? This is what the green party people have been able to accomplish in our country. “Save the Forest” right? Wrong.

Forests are just like farms. You plant, harvest and replant just has you do with corn. The harvest turnaround time takes decades not a season but the concept is exactly the same. But, California doesn’t see it this way.

Allowing years upon years of growth creates an overgrown forest that is ripe for major destructive wild land fires. These fires cost the tax payers hundreds of billions of dollars to fight and to rebuild.  The loss of life, while not large in terms of numbers is still priceless and if you personally lose a loved one there is no money you wouldn’t pay to have them back. It is tragic.

Instead of running after the fire breaks out we should be spending our tax dollars on reducing the forests ability to become so massive, destructive, dangerous and expensive.

This would be accomplished by removing the stupid restrictions and adding common sense regulations. Open the forests up to logging again with very specific guidelines. The public can no longer stomach clear cutting so simply define what can and cannot be taken from the forest. As an example, the rule could be that no tree that is less than 30 inches in diameter could not be removed. Any down tree can obviously be removed. The rule should be, that the loggers must remove them. Large piles of slash (limbs) becomes illegal. Make the loggers either burn the slash or better yet spread the slash out so that the piles are no higher than one foot. The slash will actually disintegrate back into the soil giving the forest the nutrients it needs and wants. Finally, make a rule that for every tree taken another is planted. This gets back to the farming example. 20 years later those seedlings will become good sized trees. The logger goes back in and cuts the larger trees that were not cut the first time and leaves the new trees to continue to grow. And on it goes from there.

As far as the homes, barns and sheds that are burning down as a result of these fires; we must go back to prevention. Each structure, by law, must have a well-defined defensible space around them. The men and women of the fire departments and forest service can tell you what they need in order to save your structure(s). Typically, they will recommend that your home or structure has at least 100 feet of clear space surrounding it.  That doesn’t mean you cannot have any trees, it means you have to allow the fire fighters the space they need to get in and around your property to fight the fire and save your property. A tree here and there is fine and actually encouraged. Today though, through stupid regulation we have homes with trees and bushes right up against the house and if you are a responsible homeowner and want to clear these out you are forced to first go to the county, file for a permit and pay for the privilege of protecting your home and loved ones. Make sense? Of course not.

In these large developments, contractors should be forced, as part of the building permit, to create fire lanes (dirt roads) separating the development from the forest. This also provides the fire fighters pathways to bring in equipment to fight the fires. Make sense? Of course it does.

When I see these grassy hill fires in the Santa Anna’s (I see them every single year), I scratch my head in puzzlement as to why they don’t remove the grass hundreds of yards from all structures. I know, I know, that would cost a lot of money. Again, rebuilding homes costs a lot of money too. Losing a love one, your life long pet is, as I said above, priceless.

I really believe that if we implemented these common sense ideas (they’re not new ideas), we could save a lot of the heartache that we are watching unfold this week in California. These are not money issues, we are already spending money fighting these fires and rebuilding homes. A lot of the prevention can be accomplished at the cost of the loggers and contractors. With “reasonable” regulation these free market businesses will thrive and protect so many in the process.

God Bless all of you involved in these horrible conditions. Millions of us have you in our prayers.

I am old enough to remember the Bush/Gore election and the nightmare vote tallying debacle that went on in Florida’s Broward and Palm Beach Counties. Remember the bald guy with the thick glasses using a magnify glass to inspect each ballot’s “chads”?

I could be wrong, but I believe these two heavily weighted Democrat counties have pooched every election since. They didn’t get better, they got worse. Voting in Florida today couldn’t be easier. Using a black pen you fill in the circle next to the person or issue you want to vote for. Then your ballot is scanned into the tabulation computer. Pretty simple and one would think, very reliable, not to mention easy to total up the votes.  Then there are the early votes; which this year appear to be where the funny business begins and ends.

Just a few weeks before the election, the Florida Pan Handle suffered a major hurricane that flattened many areas completely and left thousands without homes, power and water. Guess what? They managed to tally all the votes and submit them on time and according to the election laws of the great state of Florida. All other counties throughout Florida did the same. Then comes Palm Beach and Broward, both are still counting as of November 10^th.

The person in charge of the election tally in Broward County, Brenda Snipes, was ruled guilty two years ago for destroying thousands of ballots which resulted in the reelection of Debbie Wasserman Schutz. You remember Debbie, right? She’s the one that was forced to step down as the Democratic Party chair-person during the Hillary campaign in 2016. Ms. Snipes claims to this day the destruction of ballots was nothing more than an accident…

By 1 a.m. the day after the election this year, Republican Ron DeSantis had won his election for Governor. His competitor had conceded. The race for the Senate was too close to call. When Floridians finally went to bed, Republican Rick Scott has a slight 17,000 vote lead. His competitor Nelson had not yet conceded. Which makes since, it was a very close race with only 99% of the votes counted. Yeah, 99%.

Well, three days later and Ms. Snipes announces that some 80,000 non-tallied votes had been found. Found? She ordered the votes be counted. Okay, we all believe in counting every vote. We expect that they would not have been lost and that they would have been counted within the Florida law timeframe which has long since passed but, votes must be counted nonetheless and I agree with that. The problem I have is that to date, these “found” votes have all been for Nelson. He is now just a few thousand votes off the lead with thousands more of the “found” votes still left to be counted. The other facts that reduce any confidence in the process is that these votes were found in a school that had been used as a polling station on Election Day. Nothing weird about that, right? Wrong. These “found” ballots were all early vote ballots. How in the hell did they make their way to some Broward County school? Well, it gets better. A video has now surfaced of a rental truck showing up in the middle of the night containing ballots. There was no police escort for this transfer just a couple of good ole boys and a truck. Voting is the most important damn thing we do in America and it comes down to this. Two guys and a truck, three days after the election is over. I’ve thrown the bullshit flag so many times over the last couple of years I don’t know if I can even find it again but, when I do, I am throwing it again.

Ms. Snipes has quite a history. If you have any interest in learning more about her past this site https://t.co/eATmsSocaj gives you a pretty good idea of her on-going history.

As of Thursday (two days after the election) Snipes still had not provided the public with the number of votes she still had left to count. This is another direct violation of the state election laws.

It appears, on the surface anyway, that the Democrat policy is to count votes and keep counting votes until they win. Everyone on the Left is accusing the Right of not wanting all the votes to be counted. Wrong again. We have no problem with all the votes being counted.  We do however have a problem with the person doing the counting. She is a Democrat with a proven history of cheating.

Here’s the deal and this runs true with each of the election results throughout the country being contested (Florida, Arizona and Georgia). The winner of these elections, in the end, will have nothing to do with us, the voters. The candidate that wins will be the one with the best lawyers.  Thus is the way of our country nowadays. The very idea that the Republicans maintain their majority in the Senate is something that the Democrats will not allow to happen. They are all-in to make sure, no matter what it takes, that this does not happen. Why? Why do the Democrats have such a problem living with defeat?

A Republican controlled Senate means the President maintains the ability to nominate more judges and most importantly Supreme Court justices. Also, a Republican controlled Senate will halt any Bills sent over from the House. They learned that trick from Harry Reid. Bottom line, the Democrats want their power back and by God they are prepared to do whatever it takes to get it. Hell, they’re even willing to allow non-Americans to vote along with murders held in prison. Am I going too far? The famous Sheriff in Broward County sent county officials into their prison before the election to get the convicts registered. One of the prisoners was the sick kid who shot up the Parkland High School earlier this year. You can’t make this crap up folks. The outspoken Parkland father who lost his daughter in the shooting is an eyelash away from popping a cork and who can blame the man.

To end, here we are in 2018. We have cars that drive themselves, a box in our living rooms that can remind us the time of the day and what happened 50 years ago on the same day and the same time but, we can’t seem to count a damn vote.

I’ll leave it right there. I have to go find my damn bullshit flag.
