ECHOES OF THE PAST
Opinion October 12, 2018
The United States has only seen the face of war one time. That time was during the Civil
War and was mostly in the Southern states from 1861 to 1865. It was an ugly time of brother
against brother and the first time total war was practiced on the civilian population by General
William T. Sherman.
In this the US has been blessed, but Europe, of course cannot say the same.
I watched the movie The Monument Men at last. I had resisted watching it in the past as I abhor
George Clooney and Matt Damon for their high handed, self righteous politics. However, since it
was in the $3.74 bin at the local big box store, I relented.
I came away with two points of concern.
Number one was how the face of war came very close to destroying all that was beautiful in the
arts and historical artifacts. If it had not been for a small, dedicated team that searched for,
recovered, protected and returned the precious works that had been stolen by the Hitler regime,
imagine how intellectually poor the world would be.
Hitler was planning on being the victor of the Second World War. He was so sure that he sent his
minions out to collect and store all of the arts he enjoyed as inventory for his plan for the great
Hitler Museum.
As he fancied himself a great artist, he knew exactly the pieces he desired. Many were in the
Louvre, many were in private collections, such as the Rothschild’s. None of that mattered as he
had them stolen from wherever they resided.
Those artists whose work he didn’t care for were pulled from any and all sources and burned.
Contemporary artists like Picasso were beneath his high opinion, therefore no one else was
allowed to like or enjoy them either.
How very coincidental.
Hitler was a censor and an oppressor, and those were the least of his bad qualities.
No one dared to stand up to him allowing him to cause untold destruction and misery.
Number two is that the US is facing the same kind of potential travesty of freedom of expression,
and it cannot happen.
By allowing social media outlets like Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube to
censor who is free to put out information and who is not, the US and the world are at the
beginning of a real issue of freedom and the American way of life. If the media giants don’t like
or approve of opinions and facts, they are no different than the burner of books and arts of the
Third Reich. It isn’t necessary to agree with ideas and concepts, neither must they be true and
proven. Whoever posts them has the RIGHT to say what they please and those who see or hear
have the right to believe or ignore them.
This censorship is likened to Hitler’s defiance of the Treaty of Versailles. It was step one and the
new social media censorship is at step one.
This cannot be permitted. The First Amendment is protection against censorship.
Another disturbing movie The Book Thief, brought to life what happens if step one is breached
and permitted to thrive. This true story of an adopted German girl named Liesel whose family
were caught in the terrible time of Hitler and the Third Reich is heart wrenching in its tragedy.
Her family was hiding a Jew in their basement, and had been for quite a while. He was the son of
the man who had saved her father’s life during the First World War.
They were frightened to death when German soldiers came into town and were inspecting
basements in people’s homes. The people under Hitler had no personal rights, they could not
disallow the soldier from entering. They managed to hide the young man and escape detection,
but it was a nerve wracking affair.
The Fourth Amendment of the Constitution guards against unlawful search and seizures, while
setting guidelines for search warrants and other ways to legally enter a home.
That wasn’t the only time absolute law ran into Liesel’s family.
A man who had lived in the village his whole life was drug from his business one day, beaten
and taken away by the Gestapo.
He was charged with being a Jew because of his surname. His name was spelled with one letter
less than a typical Jewish name that sounded the same. He kept yelling that he was a German and
he was not a Jew. The whole village stood around to watch.
No one protested at all because of their fear.
The only one to come forward was Liesel’s father. He vouched for the man and earned a head
injury from the Gestapo. They took his name as they left the area. As his wife tended his wound,
he cried because he was terrified that his actions would cause them all to be taken away to the
death camps.
Seems history is doomed to repeat itself. We are seeing a small example of guilty by accusation
in the news today concerning the Kavanaugh nomination to the Supreme Court, but this example
is not the only one. Someone casts out an accusation sans proof, of course, and the media circus
and the Soros paid protesters are running to the gallows, screaming for blood.
It is no better than the time of Hitler. Someone is accused without any concrete evidence, and
they are guilty. Maybe they are aren’t (yet) sent to a death camp, but even if cleared from the
charges, the residual taint is a long time fading.
The time to stand up is now. The time to put a stop to this is today. Mob rule is testing us. They
are hoping we will be soft and complacent. Good Americans MUST NOT let this pass as
acceptable.
Free thinking people such as Susan Collins are now persecuted and receiving death threats for
DARING to study the facts and draw her own conclusions. Those such as Joe Manchin who
stood up to the Democratic Party’s mandate that NO ONE was to vote for any Supreme Court
pick by President Trump are also in the line of fire by the Soros financed mob of spastic crazies
whose shame has NO bounds.
The first line of defense can be formed on November 6th, 2018. Everyone must vote for the
protection of our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Those who want “socialism” or worse, sharia
law must be stopped in November!
Remember, Socialism is just the training bra of Communism.
It gets the populace used to the tight restriction building up to the total loss of personal freedoms
and wealth in favor of the “State.”
Everyone has a stake in this game. If one allows for a faction to be persecuted and say nothing,
who will be there to protest when it turns on the same one who said nothing?
Make a mark today, be sure to vote and do not be silent!
Feminism As A Weapon
Opinion October 8, 2018
The screaming attacks by brainwashed ninny’s on US Senators over the Kavanaugh
confirmation vote, no matter how the media tries to frame it, it still remains that ignorant young
women of college age, many quite probably Georgetown students or grads, infected with the
disease of Marxist feminism, have been rallied to the Anti-Fa cause to destroy, on the
Democrats behalf, a singular individual whose personal testimony by practice and example,
stands as a threat to their advancement of Socialism. America must be feminized!
Their argument is: ‘What counts is only what women say and women, therefore, must be
believed.’ Men are grouped collectively as sexist, immoral pigs with no legitimate reason to exist
except to obey and procreate on demand. “Otherwise they can just shut up and go away.” I
wonder how many real mothers will subscribe to that notion? How many moral, happy families
will be adversely affected by this philosophy when their own children go to college.
Like the anti-fascists, these organized squadrons of feminist Amazons, financially supported by
the George Soros organization, Hillary Clinton’s backers and other anti-Trump PAC’s, can be
thrown into the breach of any social conflict when numbers and loud voices are needed to kill an
unpopular proposal, mangle an idea, intimidate politicians and bully conservatives.
Several years ago, Rush Limbaugh revealed his list of life’s undeniable truths. I forget how
many there were but one I recall was “feminism was invented so ugly women could have sex.” It
also required beer. But, alas, lo these many years later they apparently still haven’t got the sex
they wanted so now, by God, nobody can have any, or beer either for that matter because it
harms women.
In a change of tactics, the Democrat derangement syndrome has refocused on women the
Democrats are fast losing to conservatism, including American women of African descent. They
are desperate to recapture the issue of women as victims while at the same time, using the
power of the scream to destroy Trump’s second conservative Supreme Court nominee from
he rightful elevation to that high bench. He is too dangerous to them on several levels.
In light of the scurrilous charges made against judge Kavanaugh as an individual alleging that,
when he was a teen age boy thirty-six years ago he attempted to fondle a teenage female, by
today’s standards is a complete violation of the feminists rules against fraternization between the
sexes for any reason. In consequence, these hoards of failed female sexless vampires have
descended on Congress to bully and inflame passions against only one person, judge
Kavanaugh, like it was he and he alone who was responsible for them not getting laid.
So, according to the new feminist mantra, if one is a teenage white male who matriculated
through the American school system(s) without being sufficiently indoctrinated, then he is
automatically disqualified from high office. If he drinks beer he’s disqualified from any office.
The shameful thing is that many of these “feminists” who graduated from their schools of
Marxist indoctrination are now professors in those colleges and universities promulgating the
very anti-man hatred that may soon be visited on them. An unleash feminist mob, without a
mans steady guiding hand, will naturally turn to screaming idle threats, wearing silly pink hats
glorifying the vagina’s they don’t use, and wearing their voices hoarse screaming at men who
will pay them no attention. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go
get ‘em! (06Oct18)
Another Reason I Despise Democrats – They Don’t Like Guns
Opinion October 3, 2018
Schumer: “If you believe Dr. Ford, then Kavanaugh is Guilty!” “This man does not belong on the
Supreme Court,” I heard no such remarks from any Democrat about Bill Clinton’s victims or that
he should remain President. Soviet show trials started that way. An accusation made was proof
enough of guilt. Stalin made the accusation and to save time the accused went straight to the
firing squad. That’s what Democrats want. That’s a reason why I despise Democrats.
We have fallen victim to overuse of the term “Double Standard” that our betters, Hillary Clinton,
Loretta Lynch, Obama, Dianne Feinstein, et. al.., are not responsible for their crimes because
“they meant well” or “didn’t intend to.” We’ve heard “Double Standards” so often and seen it in
action that even talking about it deadens our senses because while we know it’s true we also
see that nothing is ever done about it. Case in point, the Kavanaugh show trial.
Democrats are fixated on their end goal, the Socialization of America. That plan includes
population control but, instead of pogoms and mass starvation of the middle class (kulaks) like
the Soviet Bolsheviks did, Democrats are content to allow the death camps of Planned
Parenthood to murder vast numbers of little citizens for them.
I had long entertained the idea that the Democrats, shocked beyond belief when Trump
defeated Hillary in 2016, remained in their continued meltdown because of Trump Derangement
Syndrome. Then it occurred to me that the vehemence of this dastardly attack against Judge
Kavanaugh went far beyond merely trying to thwart Trump’s destruction of the Deep State, but
because Kavanaugh himself portends a singular threat to their plans to overcome America.
It all falls to Kavanaugh’s dissenting decision as a Judge on the DC Circuit Court of Appeals,
against the Washington DC council’s rules imposing firearms restrictions on the citizens of
Wash. DC. The issue passed and in its appeal to the Supreme Court, it was Judge Kavanaugh’s
written dissent, almost in its entirety, that the Supreme Court used in striking down the DC
restrictions as unconstitutional, ergo, Kavanaugh remains a clear and present danger to the
safe establishment of a Socialist Soviet style state. Democrats are absolutely despicable.
Our elite leaders, who firmly believe they serve as our betters, especially the despicable
Democrats, actually despise us. They hate us beyond imagination because enough of us won’t
swallow the crap they’ve been shoveling out to move their plans forward. They want to remain
the “Elites” with all the perks that come with it and as long as Americans remain armed and
ready to defend themselves, their plans to disarm and socialize Americans cannot proceed.
Squatting in the political shadows pretending they too can be counted among the ranks of our
betters are several really stupid congressmen and women. They identify themselves every time
they open their mouths but, to avoid confusion they are Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Watters, Shirley
Jackson Lee, Hank Johnson and others. They make all Democrats look despicable.
It’s sad for the nation but I suspect from now on it will take people with supreme grace, strength
of will, stern resolve and rhinoceros hides to even consider wanting to stand for high public
office. Trump is certainly one and now so too is Judge Kavanaugh. The stable of Republican
contenders suffers a paucity of likely candidates and many know it. That’s why losers like John
Kasich and even Jeff Flake entertain the notion they can run for president in 2020 and defeat
Tumps. These are really stupid people too!
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (02Oct18)
The Ultimate Insult
Opinion September 24, 2018
It would please me no end to see Senate Judiciary chairman, Chuck Grassley, at the very
commencement of Thursdays extra-judicial hearing on the Kavanaugh confirmation to interview
Dr. Christine Bassey Ford, to publicly ask Senator Dianne Feinstein to immediately tender her
resignation from the committee by reason that she has lost the faith and trust of the Chairman,
and her continued presence would be inimical to the good order and discipline of the hearing.
It’s time for chairman Grassley to grab hold of this committee and run it like General Patton
would. Whether he realizes it or not, the political war between the Marxist Democrats and the
American Republic has been joined and because Trump has thrown a “monkey wrench” into
their expected America take-over plans, the battlefield has shifted dangerously to the judiciary.
Comity, statesmanship and fair play are unknown to Democrats so, neither should it be granted
to them. Whether the Democrats intended it at this time or not, Dianne Feinstein’s singular
attack against Trumps nominee to the Supreme Court, has launched a war that could soon get
completely out of control. This could be Grassley’s finest hour or his worst nightmare.
But imagine for a moment, the gasp of disbelief and total shock from Judiciary committee
Democrats, suddenly wondering how to quench the bleeding from Grassley’s stab wound.
All would be in chaos, Dr. Ford’s testimony would be forgotten or ignored, her attorney’s would
be stupefied, and then a call for a vote right then and there while the flood waters of panic
sweep over the Democrats would be a sight to behold. God, I would love to see that. It would
rejuvenate my faith in the GOP.
But, alas, it won’t happen! This is now a media event, a three ring circus led by MSNBC and
CNN, & New Yorker. I wonder if CNN and MSNBC, & et. al. realize they no longer have the
huge audience they once enjoyed? I also wonder who is paying for Dr. Ford’s high
maintenance attorney’s? Just asking! it would appear Grassley is going to allow Dr. Christine
Ford to testify, some day, Thursday probably, but if she perjury’s herself, who will know?
Democrats think Grassley is between a rock and a hard spot, feeling the heat for “fairness,”
something Democrats don’t practice while heaping the blame on his shoulders for the debacle
now unfolding. As I think on it, he should demand Feinstein’s resignation from the committee.
I had hoped that Grassley would announce that the committee vote would occur on Monday,
regardless. Suddenly ,Deep State RiNO’s like Jeff Flake, indicated he would probably not agree
meaning Kavanaugh could go to the floor without a committee endorsement. Won’t happen.
And what would Collins and Murkowski do? They all forget Americans voted for Trump so he
could put jurists like Kavanaugh on the bench, not dick around with “he said, she said” in-
actionable allegations. Probably, the most acceptable decision is to allow Dr. Ford to testify on
Thursday. Wednesday was offered but that wouldn’t do because we’re no longer concerned with
36 year old allegations, but obstruction and delay until the November elections.
Will Grassley and Mitchell capitulate? I have this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach that
another Republican defeat is in the works. Will Grassley hold his ground like a good soldier, or
throw in the towel as Schumer expects he will do. First, demand Feinstein’s resignation. It’s the
very least he can do. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get
‘em! (23Sep18)
