Opinion by George McClellan:

Immediately after the attack in Nice, France by a frustrated muslim nut case driving a truck that killed eighty-four people including twelve children, the French Police, at all levels, immediately commenced raids of suspected mosques, homes and offices of potential Islamic suspects. French intelligence had laid the ground work long before to insure that their human rights were not violated.

The expected results were reveling. Police found recordings of Islamic chants glorifying jihadists martyrs linked to the terror organization Jabhat al-Nusra”, the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda. Also, recordings teaching islamic youths jihadism were found in an undeclared and unauthorized madrassa or religious school. To them, the need to wage jihad on infidels is paramount.

French investigators have been called racists, but it isn’t racist after they found a stashes of 7.62 Kalashnikov ammo along with ISIS propaganda videos. Police raided one of the mosque’s leader’s homes and found a revolver hidden with other jihadist documents. Whining muslims are complaining about the closure of a “prayer hall.” Well, they can they pray at home instead.

Apparently, France isn’t messing around with these people any more. More than 230 Muslims have been arrested and more than 324 weapons seized. Others are under travel bans or house arrest. Police have shut down three mosques, raided more than 2,300 homes and will continue their operations until such time that the jihadist threat is ended, the EU and political correctness be damned. Islamophobia is self-defense!

Bernard Cazeneuve, France’s Minister of the Interior noted that the number of weapons seized in police raids was staggering. He said: “In mere hours, we have seized one-third of the quantity of war-grade weapons (Kalashnikov’s) that are normally seized in a year.”

The Islamic Jihadist attacks in America started in Bill Clinton’s term with the first bombing of the World Trade Center and they have continued apace. The death toll here has climbed since then but is basically ignored or excused by our media as misadventures of unassimilated youths, all nonsense of course! Sexually frustrated Islamic attackers desire to die so they can get laid in their heaven. Accordingly, their attacks will succeed. Are we not the “Great Satan?”

The Internet is a veritable treasure trove of reports of world wide jihadist attacks against the west, including India, Africa, and all but eastern European countries. A recent report from Norway apparently shows they too have had enough crimes by Islamic refugees and have reportedly deported 4800 Syrians. Suddenly, the report goes, their jails are near empty, police officers are again turning their attention to neglected traffic problems and women are feeling safer too. We do not hear these reports in America.

Many French leaders have joined others in the EU calling for an end to importing Syrian Islamic refugees. From Obama, however, who blames the San Bernardino and Fort Hood attacks on “workplace violence” he imports more. What kind of a nut case calls for the prosecution of Americans who speak out against radical Islam? A muslim president will! He won’t even speak the phrase “Islamic Terrorism” hoping it will go away.

It appears that Trump’s comments were right, and it’s time to start treating Muslim communities with extreme suspicion if not outright hostility! Living with rattlesnakes is no fun. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go to work for Trump! (11 Aug 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

It’s all over but the shouting. Trump has achieved the required 1237 delegates vote count and will be the GOP candidate for president. There will be no brokered convention, no behind the scene machinations to bring in Jeb Bush or Mitt Romney, no nothing! Oh my!

The GOP Establishment is opposed to Donald Trump. He’s a threat to their corrupt life style and now, they’ve run out of options. Either they embrace the candidate or they flock to Hillary only because they believe if in office, she will continue the big government depredations against the American people. Because Hillary is a part of the establishment nothing will change, they hope!

At this point, I believe the Democrat party is in deep turmoil. Clearly, because Obama has allowed the release of the State Depts. negative IG report on Hillary’s mishandling of classified documents, that constitutes tacit approval for her removal. I believe the next shoe to fall on Hillary’s head will be the FBI Investigation on her criminality. That will also expand to include her Clinton Crime Foundation schemes now under investigation for possible RICO violations. Oh my!

The vast wealth the Clinton’s have amassed while she was Secretary of State and since, from the Middle-East OPEC nations, Wall Street Financial Institutions and other sources seeking political favors when she would become president, are now additional objects of criminal inquiry that will adversely affect her candidacy as the anointed Democrat standard bearer.

Shakespeare said right: “Oh what tangled webs we weave when at first we practice to deceive.”
Hillary is now entangled in a web of her own lies: The State Dept., she said, allowed her to use her own private server. A lie! They didn’t. As a matter of fact, she was the State Dept. and they must operate on rules previously made that cannot be ignored, except by the Clinton’s of course. She knew the rules and continued to ignore them. After her server was hacked she was told to use the State Department server. She refused not wanting facts to surface that her efforts were solely to enrich the coffers of the Clinton Foundation, not to do her job as Secretary of State, a position she used as a vehicle only to enhance and enrich her Foundation.

As expected, Hillary blames the State Department for sloppy record-keeping, for not preserving her real time records. On CNN, her spokesman, Brian Fallon, said “the State Department’s system was in such disarray it thwarted Clinton’s effort to meet the standards under law for filing and saving her records.” What? The IG report simply said “she did not comply with the department’s policies that were implemented in accordance with the Federal Records Act.” So, there we have it! What are the democrats to do?

Will Hillary bow out peacefully for the good of her party? Don’t count on it. Will the DNC National Chairman, Debbie Wassermann Schultz, put a word in her ear about saving the party? Don’t count on it! Will Bernie seize the initiative? He’ll certainly try! We can already hear the chairs falling over as democrats rush too repair the damage of having a criminal pre-selected as their presidential candidate. Oh my!

Look for poor ol’ uncle Joe Biden to come to the rescue. It will be his swan song, his last great act of public service, to throw himself on the flaming pyre of democrat dreams to rescue the drowning party from its inevitable fate – extinction. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (26 May 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

Some well meaning blog writers on conservative subjects fail to grasp the true nature of America’s eclipse. They have bought into the left’s message that a good life through government assistance is possible. They compare the changes America is now experiencing to an aging process folks encounter as they grow older rather than the deliberate plan of a cynical wholesale change that it really is.

While diseases and illnesses eventually come to the human body over time, and always followed by death, it should not be extrapolated that a great, prosperous nation like America, displaying the symptoms of old age as humans do is, in effect, near the end of its life term.

America should last for the millennium as the one and only beacon of freedom to the world. It would if its enemies have not been allowed to penetrate it’s constitutional fortress and spread their cancerous disease as we now see happening.

Less than 240 years since our founding, America has become ill not because of old age, but because we’ve been told to abandon God, accept secular atheism, place our personal self-defense in government hands and trust our elected politicians to see to our wants and needs. In short, America has been injected with the cancer of socialism, to be followed soon by the disease of Islamic fascism and then, the disease of abject apathy. Do we even stand a chance?

As we grow older, groups like the AARP start filling our mail boxes, and email sites with a constant drum beat reminding us that we are aging. They tell us we’re getting old, that we need care and attention so that we can blissfully enter our golden years without worry to ourselves or our families. Oh yes, And, for only a few dollars a month they are prepared to help us to achieve this nirvana. They tell us, in soft pleasant tones, “you worked hard all your life and deserve to be helped in your old age, comfortably surrounded by family and friends, etc., etc. & etc.”

The Progressive-Socialists have constantly told us this same message about our nation, in need of remedial social changes that only they can bring if we would only abandon our backward beliefs in the greatness of God, the greatness of America, and reevaluate our moral standards that inhibit Americas deviates from living their lives without fear or conscience.

The Progressive-Socialists (Democrats) don’t talk about America the way we do. Instead they tell us that America is sick and can only be fixed with increased spending, more inclusiveness, less racism, free education, free food, free rent, job killing minimum wages, free birth control and, even more unaffordable, free education for all, especially including illegals.

Our youth are now being taught that white European Americans are to blame for the world’s problems and to see the progress of European culture as crimes against humanity that have adversely affected life’s bottom feeders liking them to life’s lottery losers who need to be protected from silly notions such as self reliance, personal independence and a faith in God.

Our illness is easily diagnosed. It’s the malise created by the corrupt political establishment in both parties. We have sat quietly while the political tools of greed and avarice have destroyed our nation. Trump has simply brought us a tremendous reality check. He has brought us our first hope of political redemption.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (23 May 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

I don’t mind giving kudos when they are deserved. In my last essay, I mentioned detecting some twitch of movement in what has long been considered an inert and moribund life form, the GOP congress.

Apparently, the House Oversight and Reform Committee, chaired by Jason Chaffetz, the House Freedom Caucus, chaired by Jim Jordan, and the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Bob Goodlatte, Republicans all, are deserving of support and encouragement because they are indeed commencing the process to impeach the corrupt IRS Director, John Koskinen for his contempt of Congress. It’s a good first step and about time too!

The House representatives mentioned above, believe they have a very good case that can proceed against the IRS director and, apparently, they have the gonads to do it. If they start the impeachment train moving against mere bureaucratic functionaries, like Koskinen, perhaps other Republican house committee chairmen may feel the urge to get involved and start the process of bringing down other of Obama’s socialists. How? By kicking out the leaders. More power to them. Socialism is not good for Americans. It’s not who we are!

Obama is a criminal. He ignores court orders against his despotic edicts; he expects his acolytes, like the young ignorant DoJ lawyers who lied to a Federal Judge in Texas, to purposely lie to judges to simply to advance his Progressive goals by edict. So far, a few Federal Judges who have not been corrupted, have thwarted many of Obama’s plans for the social re-engineering of our America, plans designed to legalize border crashers, deny Islamic Jihadists terrorism, release apprehended felons, create parity for the sicko transgender crowd, and to continue to separate our nation from its centuries held moral base of Judaeo-Christianity.

As conservative voters who make up the base of the Republican party, it apparently falls upon us to renew the pledges we have made to our country that affords all our citizens the right to prosper under the protection of its laws. We have seen the Progressive/Liberal movement over the past several decades, slowly erode away our great American values on the premise of fairness, multiculturalism, equality of outcomes, diversity of opinions (Liberal only), inclusiveness of all cultures no matter how backward they are, and other nameless acronyms of BS they can think up to blur our minds.

The head of the IRS is the first target for congressional removal, but hopefully, not the last. If Koskinen’s impeachment is actually accomplished, can we soon look forward to the impeachments of the heads of the EPA, DoEd, DoEnergy, DHS, HUD, etc., etc.,& etc.? One can only hope. Out here, in flyover land, the base conservative voters expect to see such GOP action against criminals to proceed apace with energy and enthusiasm; to do their job legally and kick the bums out. I should think, as individuals, each representative in danger of being faced with a primary challenge for his job, should view these actions as necessary to restore the long lost trust the GOP so desperately needs.

Trumps amazing ascendancy, and Bernie’s too for that matter, directly reflects the voters frustration over the course big government politicians have taken our once great country, into the odious far left field of absolutism. I for one no longer want to be governed by battalions of unelected bureaucrats supported by products of corrupted liberal law schools, appointed for life, as arbiters of the law while being encouraged to push the leftist agenda along.
Remember, Freedom is the goal, the Constitutions the way. Now, go get ‘em! (22 May 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

Our dilemma is trying to understand the how and why our constitutional republic does not function the way as was originally laid out in the US Constitution. The answer is that politicians have meddled with it at a time when no one was apparently looking.

First, the 16th amendment, ratified in 1913, establishing the income tax has turned out to be a candy dish for politicians to painlessly extract taxpayer funds for what ever use they wanted. Second, is the 17th Amendment, also ratified in 1913, that deprives the fifty states of real direct representation in Congress. Somebody thought Senators should be voted for directly like in popularity contestants, in effect becoming six year Representatives, not two year ones.

It didn’t take long for Congress to legally corrupt itself and start passing out legislative favors for money, so they could stay in office, while side tracking the individual states from participating in overall government as the 10th amendment once provided for. For the 10th amendment to work, the 16th and 17th amendments must be repealed.

Originally, Congress was the superior of the three branches of government simply because they had the citizens ear and the states concerns in mind. Indeed, the Speaker of the House is third in succession to be President of the US, on an accidental basis of course. The House is the only chamber of the three branches authorized to allocate money. The Senate, whose job was supposedly to represent the interests of their States, ratified house spending bills, or not. It was the Presidents job to say “Okay” or veto a bill if he didn’t like it. By a majority vote, the House could make the bill a law by overriding the veto. Other machinations can be used.

This current election process has become the vehicle for our education. By the Trump phenomena, we should be learning that the people (us sheep) don’t select the President, the political parties do, with ‘electors.’ Its always been like that and will continue to be so. Lastly, the Judicial branch, now formalized into near political efficiency. is a creation of the Executive and the States. It is apparently now, being created by crony favoritism, disregarding the law as it exists, substituting instead individual judges own feel good solutions to accommodate the weirdo’s, deviates, illegals, fraudsters, and social bottom feeders who think they need to be served and the rest of us should pay for it.

Once, all that worked well is now gone. In 1946 the Congress passed the Administrative Procedures Act which permits Federal agencies, created out of whole cloth, to make rules and regulations that carry the force of law, suppress our constitutional freedoms and threaten our personal security, without the authority or even knowledge of our Representatives.

It’s the little things that irk so much! Regulation of lawnmower emissions, prohibiting animal ponds on private property, stealing vast swaths of land from the states and forbidding use of it by the citizens without strict controls, changing our moral and social standards to accommodate a .03% of the country’s deviates so they can potty freely where they wish without getting the crap kicked out of them. Did I fail to add murdering babies for their body part? When do we say enough? When do we strike back, after it’s too late?

I have been down on the GOP for inaction. I now see some movement in a once lifeless form, the happy talk about impeaching the Director of the IRS. They can do that you know! If that dam of fear finally bursts, look out Feds., Look out Obama, and Eric Holder, go into hiding. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (21 May 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

“Friends, delegates and fellow Americans” (Friends, Romans, Countrymen), “I accept your nomination…” What a way to start an acceptance speech. The Donald, not the most polished of public speakers, became one of the best Thursday night. He’s a doer not a talker, a producer, not a destroyer and he clearly laid out a course for Americas return to the rule of law, social stability, economic fairness, military strength and a return of respect for America, world wide, now being snubbed by tin horn despots in meaningless countries Obama has permitted to challenge us. Trump even promised to ensure protections for the weirdest among us.

His task, our task, will be difficult. It has taken decades for the Marxist infiltrated Democrats to bring America to the brink of a total socialistic, one world government. It will take some painful years to undo the damage, if we can. First among those necessary items to be repaired is to restore trust in government, one that issues lies and half-truths, all supported by a corrupted media determined to imposed Socialism upon us.This type of government is a criminal enterprise to be uprooted and destroyed. Trump told us it will end. I believe him.

The lawlessness on our streets, the murdering of our police officers, aided and abetted by Obama’s policies, i.e.: the importation of young, male, Islamic jihadist, the failure to suppress urban criminal gangs, indeed encouraging the beginnings of new ones like Black Lives Matter, serves only to further divides our citizens into armed camps of mutual distrust. Obama has even added federal law enforcement to his side of the armed camps, if they come. This was not mischance, this was planned all along. Trump will sweep that mind set of evil away.

The Dept. of Justice and the IRS, the two agencies that have the most frequent contact with the public are the most in need of revision. Unconstitutional bureaus and agencies, like the EPA, DoEd., and the BLM, with assumed police powers not authorized in any founding document, can be swept away in a moment. Errant Federal judges can be quickly brought onto line by simply cutting off their operating budgets. We know who those judges are. They are the ones who decide to make law instead of ruling on their constitutionality, apparently in contradiction to already established law.

Trump addressed, in no uncertain terms, the complete failures of Obama’s and Hillary Clinton’s foreign policies that have left us with a nuclear Iran, a Red Lined Syria, a destroyed Libya, ISIS running around the middle-east cutting off peoples heads and launching bloody attacks against the west. Trump recognizes that Obama, with Clinton, has put America in dire peril.

Trump clearly understands how world wide trade agreements negotiated by Obama and his incompetent minions, Hillary Clinton and now, John Kerry, has economically damaged the ability of Americas citizens to survive without government assistance. Trump understands that middle class wage earners have lost their earning ability, their health care options and the ability to educate their children at affordable prices. The middle-class is dwindling away, by design.

America’s economy has been twisted to satisfy a Marxist dream of a one world government, a world without borders, a world where all workers are the same (think Venezuela), and a world where only the elites make decisions. I don’t see that happening in my life time so long as Donald Trump gets cracking and starts pushing back on all the silly Democrat nonsense.

The Republican Party is dead! Trump did it! Long live the Republican party. Remember, freedom is the goal, the constitution is the way. Now, celebrate, then go get ‘em! (22 July 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

The potential disaster for the GOP is already beginning to reveal itself. America is no longer government of the people, by the people, or for the people instead, it has become government of, by and for the politicians who believe it is their right to remain there, at least until they can achieve a comfortable retirement. That is sacrosanct!

Clearly, our system of government has altered our country from a Republic into a tawdry attempt at a dictatorship of the establishment subject to the co-dictatorship of an unelected Federal judiciary, including the SCOTUS, who happily legislates from the bench to enforce the establishment’s Progressive sociopolitical agenda on the nation. They are all wolves! We, apparently, are a nation of sheep and wolves do not concern themselves with the opinions of sheep!

The elites want our new state religion to be Atheistic Secularism, our national motto, In God We Trust to be, In Atheism We (must) Trust. To witness a political party, like the GOP, actually contribute through inaction, to the demise of world’s once only global superpower while China, Iran, North Korea and other tinhorn dictatorships ready themselves to pounce, is damn well scary and demands that the sheep get involved!

This election, at first sight, appeared to have been another exercise in the elites selection process of a hand picked moderate loser. The sheep were not motivated until Trump flashed on the scene and all but settled the matter on who would be the conservative presidential candidate. The GOP recklessly disregarded the grassroots and strove to nominate, not a new face, but a moderate face, one that wouldn’t frighten the sheep, no matter who wore it. They didn’t! Otherwise, this would have weakened the Republican Party by sheer apathy. Trump changed that, he has energized the base.

The arrogant GOP elites didn’t see it. At the next General election, the grassroots voters, basically, would not have voted for another party moderate. Without doubt, this voter apathy would have extended to our States GOP Senators and Representatives races, maybe even all the way into the local and state elections. There may be no Republican elite after a couple more election cycles. Hell, there may be no America either.

Elite enablers, like the cunning Karl Rove, the GOP’s so called “architect,” who speaks for the Republican Party, has gone missing. Since Trump can now all but claim the party’s candidacy, we hardly hear from him any more. One wonders what destructive plan he is hatching in the depths of his secret lair to defeat Trump? I would call it his bat cave but that would be unfair to Batman, wouldn’t it?

If Trump gets “Borked,” so to speak, and goes with a populist third party, most of the GOP’s base would go with him. Millions. The GOP’s arrogance toward its followers (sheep) had nearly reached the point of complete apathy. Trump has revived the GOP but they’re slow at accepting it. He’s got their measure. He say’s of them: “These are very stupid people.” Oh, he is so right! Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is there way. Now, go get ‘em! (18 May 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

Trust is the glue that binds! lying is the solvent that erodes that trust and empowers a culture of dishonesty. People, in groups, communities and businesses all function well together when each member can be trusted to do the tasks they were assigned. Most of our daily encounters involve the little things we normally don’t give a second thought about. When we trust the person assigned to do the task, life is happy and uncomplicated.

It is with little children that the task of teaching truth telling becomes a primary function of parents and family. Many issues will alter that mission if a person harbors ill intent, has devious sexual proclivities, or is afflicted with social diseases such as Kleptomania or drug use. These things we understand and can account for. That’s why we have regulatory agencies like our city, county and state police forces; deans, principals and truant officers in our schools.

Our parents taught us, often using strident measures, the folly of lying and the consequences of even thinking we could get away with fibbing on some issue that came to their attention. Our parents recognized B.S when they heard it and corrective action was always immediately taken. Government has relieved us of those burdens. It doesn’t take a village.

There are exceptions: When war time Prime Minister of Great Britain, Winston Churchill, was told that the German Enigma Cipher Code had finally been broken and virtually all Nazi communications could be read, often, even before the German High Command got them, he slammed down a veil secrecy so tight that the Germans never suspected for one instant, their vaunted, unbreakable cipher codes had been breached.

The result was the permitted continued attacks on ships at sea and cities in the mid-lands, with death and destruction raining down on English production by the German Luftwaffe. This was clearly a lie of momentous proportions but Churchill said, the Enigma discovery was so important, “it had to be protected by a body guard of lies” to safeguard the deceptions Britain was using against the Germans. It worked, but it took time.

What is Hillary Clinton’s excuse? “I didn’t know, I’m just a silly woman who doesn’t understand these thing?” “My staff did it!” “I never passed classified information on my private server, not once. I gave everything to the State Department!” “It was a video!”

Her lying is now so completely exposed to public scrutiny that even jokes are made of it. Are they so egregious that they can’t be ignored? Is America’s security, at the hands of this hapless government functionary, so inconsequential as to be meaningless to our country’s future? Can she can be trusted for one second to be our Commander-in-Chief?

Clearly, the depths of her lying far exceeds the level of loss of trust, yet, there is the FBI and the DoJ, enabling her to be the Commander-in-Chief and the Democrat Party, upholding her demands to be President, because “It’s her turn and isn’t it time we had a woman president?”

The Democrat party, infected by the Clinton’s and the Obama’s with the solvent of lying, has lost all moral authority to govern. But, the disease spread so quickly, even to the GOP and main stream media, that ‘trust’ has become a silly word no longer understandable to the daily business of government. The contagion of deceit has spread into our school curriculums, our food production, our manufacturing abilities, our religion, our economics and even into our daily lives. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (21 July 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

A fundamental disagreement is in play now, about who runs, or will run, the Republican Party.
On the larger scale the crypto-globalists, the Bush’s, Romney’s, John McCain, Lindsey Graham, et. al., the GOP’s political ‘elites,’ have killed their chances of holding on. They revealed their hands by not even electing to attend the grand spectacle, like children in a snit!

We can leave the explanation to that black hearted Governor of Ohio, John Kasich, who signed his pledge to support whoever became the GOP’s candidate. He revealed their motives when he was asked if he would speak at the GOP convention on Trump’s behalf, let by-gone’s be by-gone’s, that sort of thing. The Governor said: “Well, no. He’d have to change everything that he says. We can’t be attacking Muslims and Hispanics, and trying to shut down trade, and not caring about the debt. Those are all problems for me. And so it’s not — I don’t hold any personal animus towards Donald Trump (yes he does). We just are two companies that have different values, different directions and different philosophies.”

That attitude reflects exactly why the GOP is losing its popular flavor with its base and the new, populist GOP, now in the throes of conversion by Donald Trump, will be assuming political control and replacing the old elites. It’s been a long time coming.

The drama was first played out in the rules fight started by the Washington State delegation, who wanted to amend the rules so those states that held a “closed” primary system could play a greater role in the selection process by allowing their delegates to vote their true feelings, just like the Democrats would do. All sorts of formulas were posited by different anti-Trump groups to make such an action possible but the GOP’s leadership, sensing, at last, the dire danger facing the Republican Party if Trump was dumped, stepped in and astutely quashed the rebellion.

The GOP’s rules committee, composed of those who run the party between the conventions, drafted the rules and were in no mood to see them altered by a parliamentary sleight of hand of “#never-Trump crowd. The whole weird process, of yelling and screaming, signed petitions and numbers count is controlled by the Chairman who relies on an approved Parliamentarian who knows, or should know, Roberts Rules of Order, inside out and backwards. There is a process!

When committee members didn’t agree to submitted amendments, it was thrown to the chatter of convention delegates to decide. Like herding cats, the convention chairman called for a voice vote and ruled the originals rules were adopted, followed immediately by the parliamentary sleight-of-hand ruling that a motion for reconsideration, which wasn’t ever called for, was denied, and “without objection, so ordered.” That killed any further progress.

That trick will work only until delegates realize they had just been had, but by then, it’s too late. In this case the chairman said he didn’t “hear” any objection and attempted to move on to the next order of business. As it turned out, the process was delayed until Trump’s people could meet some states delegations and convince them to reconsider their objections.

The dispute was caused solely because the Convention chairman didn’t want (wasn’t going to) hear any “objections” from the floor. The decision was already settled and, like him or not, that there would be no opposition to Donald Trump in order to save the party. And that’s politics folks! Trump is now the GOP candidate for President of the United States. Never Hillary, never! Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!

Opinion by George McClellan:

Is the GOP in crisis? Yes, of course it is, but worse, so is America. The GOP’s crisis is called Donald Trump in whose hands potentially lies the salvation of an America quickly slipping away. America’s crisis is called the Democrat Party (Progressive socialists) which has worked fastidiously to denigrate, downgrade and outright trash the rule of law (the US Constitution), to be substituted by the knowledgable and learned input of the intellectual business and banking class who claim they know better how to govern the masses better then the masses can do themselves. Do not doubt them!

The GOP crisis, when this Trump shock phenomena finally fades out, is really nothing more than a needed adjustment to the political party that improperly calls itself “conservative.” Trump has redefined the word conservative and the voter base has latched on to it. Maybe he should rename it the America First Party.

Sadly, the posturing by the politically connected GOP elites, those that once said “#Never Trump,” are now falling all over themselves to get in line to kiss Trumps hand, like SC Senator Lindsay Graham. That is pitiful to behold. Even in defeat the GOP’s ruling class seems to show spinelessness in the face of reality. Or does it?

Perhaps this shameless fawning by GOP insider elites could be a cunning device to sideline Trump and make him their creature, usurp and nullify his Fair Tax plans, quash his immigration plans and readjust his foreign policy ideas so the crisis profiteers can continue making armaments and money. Then it would be back to business as usual.

Theoretically, the base would be pacified, for awhile, and the ruling class could get on with their task of ruling and re-entrenchment. Trump is a political outsider after all, unskilled in the fine art of political mischief and mayhem. But, beware, Trump is still an experienced fighter. Perhaps? We’ll know soon enough! Here’s my take: Do Trump supporters really want agreement with the GOP on the GOP’s terms? I don’t think so.

But, worrying so much about Trump takes our eyes off of keeping the US Senate. Losing that would be a crisis as the Progressives need only six seats to regain control of the Senate. They have targeted Illinois’s Mark Kirk, Ron Johnson of Wis., Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, Ohio’s Rob Portman, Pat Toomey of Pa., and the now available seat of Marco Rubio of Florida. We also have three geriatric GOP Senators, McCain, 80, Richard Shelby, 82, and Chuck Grassley 83. All are apparently healthy men for their age but all are already politically fossilized by their overly long terms in office (a good argument for term limits). Democrats aren’t much better off. They need to save six key senatorial target seats themselves filled by weak incumbents.

Here in Georgia we have a Senatorial problem in Johnny Isakson who tells us he is facing the onset of Parkinson’s disease but will run again. Nonsense! He will assuredly resign, allow Gov. Deal to make an appointment, probably Jack Kingston, thus depriving the GOP voters of having a choice of who our next Senator should be. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (13 May 2016).

Opinion by George McClellan:

Easy question! it’s the GOP’s globalists, that obsessive New World Order crowd who will not be there. The once familiar face of the old Republican Party has decided to miss this seasons convention. Folks like the Bush family, John McCain, Lindsey Graham and the Romney’s, as well as Ohio’s black hearted Governor, John Kasich, are all opting out. Pity! They won’t be missed. There are probably others, like George Will and Bill Kristol but they don’t count any more. After this convention, you can stick a fork in ‘em, they’re done!

Their era is passing and the anti-Republicans (not referring to the Democrats) are bringing in a new crop of “populists” conservative politicians to effect the changes it is desired that Trump will initiate. Hopefully, these new politicians can avoid the corruption that comes from International Banks, Wall Street Investment firms, Lobbyists, and political think tanks loaded with Liberal thinkers, elites all.

To control the future of world trade and the inestimable profits that they envision, the elites need corrupt politicians in positions of power. For the next cycle, Hillary Clinton will do. The absence of the Bush’s, Romney’s, McCain (et. al.) from the Populist GOP Convention seriously suggests us that they actually hope Hillary Clinton prevails.

Trumps triumphant ascendency over the elites other choices, reflects a major turn from the political oppression we have experienced for so many years and as mere voters, were unable to address. We have learned that if it is organized, if it appears to exist lawfully through the veracity of its proponents, then clearly we are coming to believe therefore that it must be evil and corrupt. The non-inditement of Hillary Clinton is the prime example of the obvious corruption we see in government every day. We also now recognize it to be the norm and not the exception. Most folks know tyranny when they see it. Obama, and Hillary if she wins, is indeed the face of tyranny! Where’s the GOP when you need ‘em? Lost, looking for retirement I hope.

Globalists work tirelessly to corrupt and dominate all the worlds societies, empowering, thru corrupted governments, organizations they have created, like the United Nations, OPEC, CFE and the IMF, among others. They must assume total population control through the social and economic functions we need to operate our daily lives.

The greatest controlling methods of all, of course, are the war cycles created by the machinations of these global elites. The ability to manipulate the worlds monetary standards, fix the prices of metals like gold, silver and platinum, commodities like wheat, corn and oil, and create the social diseases of envy and hate, give them the tools that keep us in check.

One thing the ‘elites’ cannot do is predict the actual future.The laws of probability always interfere and the fickle state of nature frequently thwarts “the best laid plans of mice and men.” There is always the unknown principals that make life interesting but leaves everything a mess.

“There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop. And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!”….Mario Savio, Univ. of Calif. Berkley, Ca. 02 Dec 1965.

Opinion by George McClellan:

The crisis of chaos, violence and mayhem, cleverly introduced into our society in 2008 by Barak Hussein Obama, and now actually appearing on our nations streets, in our communities, our schools and universities, is the ‘organized,’ dedicated precursor to allow Obama to declare martial law. That he denies Islamic fundamentalism as a threat only helps him in gauging the rising level of violence on our streets for use as propaganda to enactment martial law.

That he hasn’t called for martial law is only because America citizens refuse to surrender their guns. That’s a game stopper. Its pending implementation is similar to events that occurred in a weary, post WWI Germany, orchestrated by the new German Chancellor and leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party in 1933, six years before the outbreak of WWII.

Without explaining all of the political details, the act the new German Chancellor introduced was titled The Enabling Act of 1933 and “gave the German Cabinet – in effect, Chancellor Adolf Hitler – the power to enact laws without the involvement of the Reichstag. It passed in both the Reichstag and Reichsrat on 24 March 1933, and was signed by President Paul von Hindenburg later that day. The act stated that it was to last four years unless renewed by the Reichstag, which occurred twice. The Enabling Act gave Hitler plenary powers.” The acts title, when translated from German to English is the “Law to Remedy the Distress of People and Reich”

So, is history repeating itself? How is Germany’s “Enabling Act” comparable to anything allowed by our Constitution? I’m glad you asked. Obama is now, purposefully creating distress by fomenting social and racial turmoil in America. Surprisingly, unlike Hitler’s Germany, Obama’s party doesn’t even hold the majority in Congress so, with his pen and cell phone he is creating edicts and Executive Orders carried out by the growing minions in the multiple, duplicative, federal regulatory bureaucracies, offices and agencies, which do obey his edicts.

Our “Enabling Act” lies hidden in the depths of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that allows the President and/or the Secretary of Homeland Security to select the organizations they deem a threat and a danger to the country allowing them to “remedy the distress of the people and the state” by fiat.

If fully enacted, the law authorizes our military, to detain selected individuals without trial, and held indefinitely until the danger has passed. It is argued that the offending provision of the NDAA, constitutes a significant, unconstitutional expansion of the laws regarding indefinite detention already established by Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists.

In comparison to the Nazi Party’s complete control of its legislative body, supporting their Leaders edicts, our Republican Congress has apparently been neutered by a political chieftain who appears unafraid to pursue his promised goal of fundamentally changing America. Remember, after his election and before his oath taking, Obama said: “I have found myself about to become President of the United States and I have put my hatreds aside. I will use my power to bring change to this nation, and offer the people a new path. My wife and I look forward to becoming our country’s first black family. Indeed CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of america.”

Like Hitler promised in his book Mein Kampf, he told the world exactly what he was going to do, and did it. Obama, orally and in writing has also showed us his way and, we are letting him do it. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (17 July 2016)

Opinion by George McClellan:

The GOP is finally realizing that Donald Trump will be the conservative party candidate. Meetings are scheduled between Trump, Speaker Paul Ryan and GOP Chairman, Reince Priebus, to try to convince Trump to become the Republican candidate. To do this, the GOP must persuade him to accept the GOP’s principles so the GOP, presumably, can support its unwanted, but none-the-less, inevitable standard bearer (insert gag reflex here), to defeat Hillary.

What Trump decides to do is unknown but I’ll take a WAG . Trump already knows what the American voters have known for awhile, that the GOP, as it currently stands, has no principles, and stands for nothing except maintaining their hold on power, promoting big banks, big business, big government and a new world order.

Trump is already big business so he can’t be all that impressed with the GOP’s desperate need to remain relevant. Trump knows how business works and in Republican hands, he knows that their principles of constant capitulation can never make America great again.

Trump holds the key to the GOP’s future, not this interloper, Paul Ryan from Wisconsin. Inevitably, the GOP will come over to Trump’s side and then we will see a shift in America’s direction back to the “right.” Trump, love or hate him, is not rigid in orthodoxy but triumphant in business. He has stepped forward to bring the status quo crashing down because he knows that American voters are disgusted with the supposedly “conservative party” constantly failing them, indeed actually promoting their own weakness in the face of true Americans values.

I suspect that Trump will be telling Ryan and Priebus what they will do. He could say “I won, you didn’t so I’ll set the parameters for moving forward. Either you come along with me or get off the stage.” Imagine what Trump could do if he decided at the convention that he had been shafted. Trump, with his millions of followers around the country, at the spur of the moment, could declare his position as a third party candidate and that would be the finish of the GOP.

I am reminded of the story of a linguistic competition. The questions was: “How does one explain the difference between Complete and Finished in a way that was easy to understand?” Most said there was no difference. Ah, but one competitor described the different this way: “When you marry the right woman, you are complete. When you marry the wrong woman, you are finished but if the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are completely finished!” That will be the complete finish of the GOP if they abandon Trump for a compliant lackey.

Who are the losers? The consulting class, the lobbyists, camp followers and hangers on. Karl Rove, crafty an operator as he is, leads the pack of the potentially unemployed. There is also a whole congress of representatives who can be added to that list. It’s simply a matter of voting them out when their time comes. It is the politicians who have ruined America and it is the politicians who refuse to correct their errors, blaming others instead.

In our own Congressional district, the incumbent can’t satisfactorily explain his vote for the Omnibus Spending Bill but attacks a challenger for alleged perfidies that never reached the level of a crime. Folks, listen to the facts, challenge their premises and vote the bums out.

Opinion By George McClellan:

The media is trying to shape the news for us now that Donald Trump is the prospective GOP candidate. It’s probably time to completely turn off the TV news programs, including Fox News, and rest your minds for awhile secure in the knowledge that your are missing the left wings massive propaganda campaign against America’s middle class and its candidate.

Both Bush presidents, plus Jeb Bush, Michael Reagan and Mitt Romney have declared they will absent themselves from the GOP Convention in Cleveland. Probably a good idea because I have a feeling they are not welcomed anyway, at least by the GOP’s base voters. They’re old, out of date and out of ideas. Even the hopefully soon to be “Cantored” Paul Ryan, has agreed to step down as convention chairman if Trump should ask him. Is this an idle threat, an idle promise, or another example of GOP capitulation in the face of a stronger force?

It has been fun watching the entitled (they think) GOP political class disintegrate into hysteria and retreat in confusion all the while shouting threats and predictions that the GOP will disintegrate if Trump becomes the party’s disastrous candidate. Most of us don’t believe that any more and most of us don’t really care any more. There’s a revolution coming.

Talk of a third party is Nonsense. Trump has managed to redefine the word “Conservative”. It is not how the GOP defines it and that is the schism between the voters and the party. The GOP is not conservative. It is big business and big government and for those clearly apparent reasons, base voters are rejecting the GOP’s conservative values to be replaced, hopefully, by real constitutional conservatism. It won’t come under Trump, but it will come.

The voters have recognized that Government is out of control militarily, socially, economically and morally. It does not create jobs but destroys them. It does not create wealth, but absorbs it, each year spending more that the year before. Government does not honor or respect the small businessman but strives to crush his business and the jobs he creates.

Government has saddled Americans with countless uncontrolled bureaucracies, unlimited in the scope of their assumed powers to bring top down government control over every aspect of our lives. Our courts have turned from considering the law to making it. Our colleges and universities have already morphed into perfect examples of George Orwell’s “Animal Farm” where every one is equal but “pigs” are more equal. There’s a revolution coming.

Americas history, developed from European western cultures, especially religion, is being trashed and rewritten to remove our European caucasian influences and replace it with the multicultural crowd of incompetents, Islamists and third worlders who couldn’t make it on their own even under the protections of our forgiving constitution. There’s a revolution coming.

It has at last occurred to the voters that it no longer makes any difference which party controls our government as they are both corrupt. The supposedly conservative GOP with its abandoned conservative principles, is losing its right to speak for the American base. This election proves it.

The Party has arrogantly missed the clues of the 2010, 2012 and 2014 elections that should have pointed the way back to America’s greatness and could have saved them but, alas, I fear it may be too late. The entitled holders of govt. jobs are fleeing, as are the voters. There’s a revolution coming and it’s already underway, so get ready!

Opinion by George McClellan:

House Speaker Paul Ryan can’t yet bring himself to support Donald Trump on the misconstrued grounds that Trump does not meet Republican principles. He said: “the party needs a standard bearer who meets our standards.” Just what are “our standards” and now, who cares? Here’s a clue for Speaker Ryan: the GOP has no standards except to have constantly yielded to the left’s demands for social changes, trashing the constitution, looting the treasury and gratifying their own sense of personal power. That’s why Donald Trump is the party’s presumptive “standard bearer” and not one of the malleable simpletons the party would have preferred.

Besides, who is the party? Is it really Ryan and the careerists, who are actually removable politicians, or we the people? I’ve never really trusted Mr. Ryan but I especially don’t after his ramrodding Obama’s Omnibus Spending Bill through the allegedly conservative house, as John Boehner arranged before he was kicked out of office.

Mr. Ryan want’s a rapport between Trump and the party to bridge the gap “to do what’s best for the American people.” Mr. Ryan said: “most of the burden for unifying the party must come from the nominee (Trump).” I think the conservative American people have already made that decision, the Republican party, and Speaker Ryan, be damned. But, this is a mere hiccup!

We can extrapolate the misery that is the GOP’s by accepting that any and every GOP representative who thought it expedient for their careers to vote for that bill needs to be replaced at this election by a citizen oriented representative who might have enough sense to occasionally vote “No.” Where are the good men and women when we need them?

Unrecognized by Speaker Ryan and the self-anointed party ”elites,” the lobbyists and the professional consulting class, is that they have lost the battle for the conservative base, the one they despise so vehemently but need so desperately. They cannot abide Trumps message which is not theirs. Let’s examine Trump’s message: Against all advice to the contrary, Trump continues his pledge to enforce immigration laws. The Chamber of Commerce won’t like that but the base does! Trump said he will negotiate better trade deals because American is getting “raped” in trade deals when it doesn’t need to be. He said would rebuild our military, reestablish our presence in the world and thus provide for our national security. When we are safe, so is the rest of the world.

Trump’s message is both conservative and hopeful. Trump knows how to get things done and he’s going to fulfill his promise to “make America great again.” What a message! He certainly understood what the voters want, most of whom are infuriated at the leadership who have consistently refused to do what was best for Americans, according to Republican principles.

Trump has created fundamental hopefulness that will become even more clear as time passes. Trump said: ‘I know how to fix this problem and it’s been bad leadership, bad decisions, and you paid the price for it, and we’re gonna fix it.” That’s a fighter speaking.

The American Conservative voters have said they like Trump and voters in other states have affirmed, by the electoral victories he has achieved and the size of the vote he has garnered, that he can win. Against Hillary, he will win easily. Rush Limbaugh believes he will win by a blowout. The outrage against Trump is a mere hiccup. The real battle coming is who will the “elites” want to force on us for their Vice-Presidential choice? A lot of good names are out there almost any one of which would do well in that job. Is it time for a woman or an old Pro?
