Easy Credit, America’s Tar Baby
Opinion August 14, 2019
While the Democrats are spinning out of control and the media is focused on Trump’s destruction, and fake news fills our TV sets, let’s take a look at a serious issue facing us.
Okay, America is a mess, politically, socially, and economically. Yes, the economy is humming along and jobs are widely available, but the money is phony. We are pawns in the hands of the world bankers and money manipulators, dependent on them for every dollar we think we earn and spend when every dollar really only represents our personal IOU note of debt to them! In effect we exist by debt and deficit spending, in other words, easy credit!
So, why has this practice of living off credit/debt become so common and why has it been allowed to continue? First, any changes to existing laws on spending limits, etc. requires a legislative process! But alas, politicians, being the parasites they are, benefit from the existing monetary system. Their greed and avarice is boundless. Why do you suppose that poor politicians retire wealthy after only a few years in service but a soldier doesn’t? Their well-paying conflict of interest schemes are solidly entrenched and once new politicians are compromised, they’re in forever like getting stuck on that ol’ Uncle Remus’s Tar Baby.
Several questions arise. How do we find honest politicians? Terms limits have been proposed but no politician worth his life, would sponsor such a bill or, if he did, it would never get an affirmative vote. That’s how democracy really works. We vote the crooks in ourselves and they vote for themselves.
Draining the Swamp, as Trump promised, was a harder task than expected. Trump promised to do it and he’s working on it but, anyone without Trump’s personal strength to resist the constant scurrilous political attacks against him, would have been gone weeks after their inauguration. Instead, because of Trump’s strength, the failed FBI coup using that swamp scoundrel, the honorable Robert Mueller as its spear point, actually exposed the worst of the decadent DC Swamp Creatures proving the Deep State does exist. They should be gone soon.
Trump’s arrival, a complete shock to the DC political system threatens their money machine so carefully crafted over the past decades; but, that money machine itself has changed. Today we are totally dependent on the commercial private bank system, including the Federal Reserve as every dollar in circulation is a borrowed one. What makes the system work is the continued printing of valueless fiat money and dispersing it rapidly into the system with low interest rates. There’s that tar baby again! Maybe we should invest in green ink.
When banks print debt money we prosper; when they don’t, we’ll see recession and hard times. Once we understand what’s in the empty cash bucket were looking into, it seems we’re in a hopeless position to the point of absurdity and yet, all the signs and warnings are out there for us to see, just garbled up and papered over to confuse us.
Does our system of economic debt portend America’s demise? Will it happen before Islam gets here and our wealth lies in the camels we own? Are we capable of repairing the situation or do we still rely on our elected, mostly corrupt politicians, to do the right thing?
Who has a vested interest in not wanting changes? Well, tax accountants for sure. Politicians of course, and special interest groups because it’s all about money. It’s their vested interest in wealth creation and It’s scandalous yet, we’re moved to do nothing. That’s how revolutions are born, out of politicians doing nothing.
Most folks look to the Fed to solve the credit/debt crisis. Can it? No! It would be impossible as the banksters created it. All this subprime lending and collateralized debt was a scam from the beginning. There is no added value anywhere. Everything in America is paper shuffling. It’s a paper bubble empire backed by paper fiat money. It has to eventually shake itself out or collapse, if not this time it will come later, during most of our lifetimes, i.e.: soon!
How do we get good people to send up there? How do we recruit, vet and elect intelligent, yet courageous people who are smart enough not to get entrapped in the tar baby morass that is the political cash machine and yet not be afraid to confront the Progressive kill machine that is the Marxist Democrat party? Don’t be fooled. They might be in disarray, but they’re not retreating in confusion.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!

Diagram for Civil War
What sane, logical thinking person, who isn’t a Progressive, could possibly believe the opusculum that was presented by former Special Counsel Robert Mueller, opining publicly, in lieu of facing a Congressional Committee hearing with Republicans on it, the sanctimonious nonsense that fell from his lips. Complete rubbish! Mueller is and has always been a “never Trumper” and he proved it beyond all doubt. His role was integral to saving the Deep State.
By the speed with which the Democrats seized on Mueller’s twisted meanings, i.e.: “If we had confidence the president didn’t commit a crime we would have said so,” indicating that there was something indeed, Trump did that requires congressional over-site. It convinces me that the true believers who have feasted for so long at the table of the ‘Elite’ Deep State, believe we are all stupid and really need their guidance. That includes the insufferable Robert Mueller.
His comments obfuscated his official clearance of Donald Trump of colluding with the Russians, or obstructing the investigation yet, with the clever manipulation of words, he left the Democrat crazies and their Leftist media propaganda organs, armed with enough doubt to pursue their obstruction of government for another year and a half. Now, Nancy Pelosi’s Leftist crazies are demanding Trumps immediate impeachment. Clearly, Pelosi has lost control. The Democrat Party, including all its presidential contenders, have become a mere babbling rabble. Pelosi has a divided house and I cannot see her pulling it together again. In fact, it needs to be destroyed.
Their division illuminates what we all suspected, that the American body politic is infested by a cancerous disease, an elitist cabal that has eroded American values to the point that all that was good is now bad and etc.. They consider themselves our betters entitled to rule simply because they believe they know better how to make everything equal and fair for all people, except them of course, because they are our betters. Didn’t we read this story in Orwell’s Animal Farm?
We have two seriously competing ideas about how government should be run. First and definitely very American, is Representative government according to the Constitution that ensures all citizens their right to self-determination, freedom of speech, religion and assembly and even freedom of self-defense. The other is a completely opposite philosophy that firmly asserts that government, run by experts schooled according to the Gospel of Karl Marx, are better prepared to equalize government for all, and that all people have the same opportunity to serve the State which will then feed, house and educate them for free. “From You according to your ability, to you according to your need.”
The American ‘Left,’ having almost achieved their goal of complete success of altering American minds, an essential first step, while ignoring us simple deplorable’s in fly-over country, are now on the ropes, because we have been awakened by Donald Trump to see the real dangers facing us. America has arrived at the point for a reckoning. How will it develop? The Progressives, who have spent decades incrementally installing socialism into the fabric of American politics by attacking family values, American history and religion, have been stymied by Trumps ‘Bull in a China Shop” style of leadership. Backed into a corner and in danger of losing all, they won’t go without a fight, a real one if necessary, to hold on to what they got.
Right now, a coming civil war can be averted simply by the arrests, trials and convictions of the Deep State elites who had the audacity to violate their oaths and now stand suspected of treason against the US Commander-in-Chief. Their wicked plan has been thrust into the disinfecting cure of bright sunlight. The opportunity to strike back should not be squandered.
Who Should Govern, POTUS or Judicial Activists?

Who Should Govern, POTUS or Judicial Activists?
America is returning, kicking and screaming all the way, to the old original ideas of American Constitutionalism. Progressives, having been so successful for so long in altering the American mind and reducing American culture and moral standards to the levels of dysfunction, that they have come to assume that governing is their divine right because they’re good at it, and should never be challenged. Well, it’s being challenged! We voted for Trump, not a Federal Judge.
In their diligence to achieve for America the Utopian goal of a Marxist society, like the one that worked so well for Russia, they’ve left no stone unturned to protect their flakes by placing Marxist thinking judges on Federal benches where their political mischief could halt any turn of the law inimical to the Left’s goals of mongrelizing America.
This week, in a frenzy of crazed decision making, a Federal Judge in the Socialist State of California, blocked Trumps order to use DoD funds to fund the wall. This judges draws on the “Separation of Powers” as the anchor for his decision. He wrote: “The position that when Congress declines the Executive’s request to appropriate funds, the Executive nonetheless may simply find a way to spend those funds ‘without Congress’ does not square with fundamental separation of powers principles dating back to the earliest days of our Republic,” What I take from this is that It’s more important to find specific Congressional funding than to protect America. Federal Judge Haywood Gilliam of the Northern District of California was an Obama appointee. What would happen if the President should stop funding this judges court?
In February, Trump declared a national emergency. The goal was to obtain funding for the border wall since Congress was unwilling to protect America’s borders. If Trumps order was simply an arbitrary one, I might agree with the Judge but, America is being invaded by unskilled peasants, drugs, disease and criminal gangs so, I don’t agree with the Judge. His ruling stood against Border Security, in favor of crime, drugs and human trafficking.
Judge Gilliam also opined: that “”Congress’s “absolute” control over federal expenditures—even when that control may frustrate the desires of the Executive Branch regarding initiatives it views as important—is not a bug in our constitutional system.” Other Federal Judges, as we know, have stymied other of Trumps initiatives, even his trying to stop illegal ones that never made it into law, like Obama’s illegal “DACA” program.
How the progressives have been changing America, like the DACA thing, among others, is to appeal to our personal feelings, featuring heartbreaking and woebegone tales of manufactured anguish that alter our attitudes to rebel against heartless laws made by dead old white men. If we continue in this mode, America is doomed to socialism.
Remember, in his empathetic appeal to “Dreamers”, Obama said we had to let ‘em stay because, “It’s who we are!” That’s a shame because it’s not who we are, it’s who they’ve conditioned us to be. We do have laws that are simply being brushed aside because these hoards of poor downtrodden useless peasants swarming our southern borders “just want to enjoy the American Dream.” Well, the American dream doesn’t include welfare, free housing over unhoused Americans, free education for their children or free healthcare you and I have had to pay for out of our monthly salaries all of our lives. I’m getting sick and tired of this Socialist BS and the Federal Judges who promulgate it. Lets have an expedited appeal!
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go fight ‘em!
FAKE NEWS OR PROPAGANDA

FAKE NEWS OR PROPAGANDA
President Trump has run a constant fight against what he calls the Fake News since the day he came down the elevator in Trump Tower to announce his candidacy.
He has good reason as many of the networks and periodicals have published information on the President, and later are forced to recant it and apologize because the information was incorrect, or just an outright lie.
There is no doubt that they handle the truth carelessly, but is that all that it really is?
It is possible that the news media along with the government in collaboration are trying to spread fake news or propaganda to the American people.
Isn’t that against the law?
It was up until 2013, the year that it all changed. The NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) removed a 1948 ban on the United States government allowing them to release propaganda on its citizens. This action neutralized the Smith – Munt Act of 1948 and the Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987.
The NDAA was created with the “purpose” of protecting citizens here and abroad from undue influence of foreign governments on the Internet. What it didn’t mention (outloud) was that it also allowed the government to create and release propaganda on its own citizens.
Most people were not dismayed at the time with this as there was no funding for the government to create and distribute any propaganda.
WAIT – THERE’S MORE
Then President, Barrack Obama signed a bill into law in 2016 for the NDAA that included what was called “Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act of 2016.” Though designed to protect the US from foreign entities such as Russia and China, it also allowed the release of propaganda to US citizens. It set up a grant funding for non-governmental originations and others that were already engaged in counter propaganda related work.https://freedomoutpost.com/is-the-us-engaging-in-propaganda-against-its-own-people/
This provided the funding needed to propagate propaganda.
When a falsehood is repeated many times on a form of media trusted by the people, it can become the accepted truth by the public.
When the “fake” news networks repeat “impeachment” 222 times, like they did one day, it makes one feel that some law had been broken and the President was sure to be impeached. On what grounds no one could really say, but that was not important. The repetition convinced many that it was inevitable.
Of course, since the Mueller Report has been released, OBSTRUCTION, is the new catch word.
It is hard for any lawyer to explain how one can obstruct justice, when no crime has been committed. Probably in the LaLa land of Washington D.C., the rules are made up and the law doesn’t matter.
So, if propaganda is okay, how far behind can full censorship and the removal of the First Amendment be?
Actually, it isn’t too far away.
Facebook, Twitter and YouTube have recently banned Alex Jones and his conspiracy theory show and commentary from their platforms, citing hate speech, violence etc. https://www.npr.org/2018/08/06/636030043/youtube-apple-and-facebook-ban-infowars-which-decries-mega-purge They claim that they are fine with opinions but all must be courteous to each side. Who decides what is courteous or respectful? Who died and made them king of free speech?
Many might think that Alex Jones is a kook, so who cares? Everyone should care, as this sets a precedence for anyone with an odd idea or theory to be shut down.
The parents of a young man in a Connecticut high school are suing his school because he offered an opinion about a Shakespearean character who was transgender in one of the Bard’s plays.
His conservative views on transgender and same sex marriage were “offensive” to some others in his class. He refused to apologize or submit to suspension as he has First Amendment rights.
Everyone has First Amendment rights to free speech. It is guaranteed in the Constitution.
No one who is offended has the right to usurp another’s free speech rights.
They have the right to be offended, but they also have the right to ignore it or walk away.
The American People must stand up to censorship and propaganda. It is like water on stone, if allowed to continue, it will break down the hardest surface.
Beware The Serpent Selling Apples

Beware The Serpent Selling Apples
No matter how the package is wrapped, how sweet and sensible sounding the charming words that fall from candidates lips are, always keep in mind the end goal of the Democrat party is to destroy America’s representative government, its constitution and its values, to create in its place another failed Communist empire but, on a world wide scale. The Democrat party is now totally Socialist and moving rapidly further to the left as more radicals infiltrate its ranks.
One such serpent is the former mayor of South Bend Ind. Greg Buttigeig, a sweet talking, sensible sounding, young politician, with administrative accomplishments in his resume’. But, he’s still a gay Democrat! Unlike the rest of their cast of characters who presume to be Presidential material and firmly linked to the radical philosophy of the Democrat party, Buttigeig is not and that makes him dangerous. Like the snake dispensing forbidden apples, he could win!
The other Democrat candidates lining up for their party’s primary approval are exposed as rotten apples having already employed the party’s pernicious techniques of spreading lies, falsehoods and innuendo’s against anyone and everyone who does not tow their ‘politically correct’ line, whether they be bloggers on internet sites, network news readers, entertainers, other politicians or simply folks who write their concerns to their local newspaper editor.
Among the more visible Nimrod’s with presidential aspirations are the three B’s of political fantasy: Beto, the Irish Mexican, Biden the Elder of the free hands, and long past his shelf life due date, and Bernie, the house hoarding socialist. All are open to examination.
Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke, aka: Roberto Francisco O’Rouke will, like a single candle in the wind, soon be puffed out because he say’s idiotic things. But one must wonder, by what measure of competence did he manage to snatch six plus million dollars out of the ether on the first day of his announcement? How about George Soros? It simply cannot be true that the multitude of “deplorable’s” in fly over country, all at once, ponied up that much cash, in a single day, to start his campaign for president. Something’s amiss here, for sure and it ain’t apples.
The rapidity of amassing a campaign chest of that magnitude from individual donations, is clearly not in the cards. Unquestionably the stipends came in the form of gracious endowments by progressive billionaires who see in ‘Beto’ the best bet of a Democrat replacing Donald Trump. I don’t think they really believe it can happen though, until 2024, so this is preparation only, a test run as it were, like polishing up that ol’ apple.
Improbably, should “Beto’ win the Democrat Primary, I can hardly wait for the first debate. One wonders what nickname Trump will permanently affix to Beto’s persona, ya know, like he did to “Little Mario,” and “Low Energy Jeb,” that sort of thing? But, Beto is perceived as popular and he ran a near race against Ted Cruz (a legitimate Latino), for Texas Senator, losing by three points. Should we hold a contest for a best nick name for “Beto?”
A quiet hush fell the other day, news wise, after an honest Reuters journalist revealed that years ago, Beto harbored a deep pathological problem about killing little children playing in the street with his car. A pre-campaign revelation of this nature should crush poor Beto like an order of refried beans in a taco shell. It was also revealed he was a member of a youthful gang of intellectual “hackers” who did much damage. So, we can presume I suppose, he has a good technological mind even if it does involve running down little children on the street with his car.
Remember freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way, Now, go get ‘em!
The Covington Boy’s vs. Rules for Radicals
Opinion January 24, 2019
The Covington Boy’s vs. Rules for Radicals
This Covington, Ky., High School business in Washington DC is another example of how the “Left” is guided by Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, Marxist garbage written in the 1940’s and 50’s, on how to steal from the producers for redistribution to the poor, the homeless and today, most certainly, the millions of illegals who have invaded our borders.
Saul Alinsky did not advocate violence for his time but, the modern antifa’s have done that for our times because they see a socialist victory on the horizon, if that terrible Donald Trump can only be removed, and quickly. They must be very careful with violence, that’s a two way street.
The media’s feeding frenzy over the Covington Boy’s followed Alinsky’s Rule No.13: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” By the misuse of “Twitter,” the SJW’s network, the task becomes easier. The goal of media is to cut off support for the Covington Boy’s by shaming them and their defenders thus isolating those awful Catholic Christian boys from any public sympathy. Alinsky said: “Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions” thus the ‘Tweet’ threats to Covington HS student Nick Sandmann, his parents and others. Those “Tweets” are probably machine generated anyway.
Following Rule No.12 of Alinsky’s opus to Radicalism: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” He meant, “Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.” For this media constructed incident, that meant interviewing Sandmann and elicit an apology out of him, a “gotcha” proposition.
Thus, Sandmann permitted himself to be interviewed on the “Today Show” by network talking head Savannah Guthrie who asked him if “he felt the need to apologize.” To his credit, he said: “As far as standing there, I have every right to do so, My position is that I was not disrespectful of Mr. Phillips,” referring course to the weird Indian banging on his pots.
To attack the Covington High School boys was an opportunity presented by the news worthy women’s pro-life march on the Mall that attracts not only American citizens concerned with the murders of millions of American babies by abortion, but also attracts the lice and fleas of the drum banging losers whose have dedicated themselves to disruption of the process.
I do not give Nathan Phillips, the Indian percussionists and alleged USMC Vietnam War veteran any credit for being associated with the Saul Alinsky bunch, he’s not that bright, but he is dedicated to his purpose and being brown skinned with stringy long hair did, for propaganda purposes, qualify him as a hero of the day because he was ‘disrespected’ by the Covington boys. Subsequent video tapes supplied by others present quickly changed the atmosphere, showed the truth and opened the door a bit, allowing us a peek inside Leftists dementia.
Two of Alinsky’s rules the media failed to observe was No. 7 that warns: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news,” and No. 5, that say’s: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating, It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.” The media lost control of their message.
Apparently, the humorless Democrats and Leftist media propagandists no longer understands the power of humor. It is being used against them by astute conservative observers and they don’t know how to respond. What’s the use of having good rules if the other guy can use them too? Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!
The Criminal Party
Opinion November 12, 2018
The Democrat party has made winning elections an art form. Their speculation knows no bounds,
abides by no rules, except their own, and would not consider for a second, capitulating to the
inevitable until all votes are counted including those from unknown precincts that suddenly were
found in the trunk of a car or stacked on the shelves in someone’s office. They were never
reported loss but, now they are found. Imagine than, an amazing grace.
In Georgia, the extreme radical left wing socialist Democrat candidate for governor, Stacy
Abrams, came up short in the general election vote count, even for the number required for a
run-off so, in typical Democrat fashion her minions filed a law suit in the US District Court for
Middle Georgia, to allow absentee ballots from Dougherty County to be counted, so long as they
were postmarked on or before Nov. 6 or received by last Friday.
Well, guess what Federal Judge is charged with supervising the suit. It’s Leslie Abrams, an
Obama appointee and, Oh, Joy! the sister of candidate Stacy Abrams. Should one anticipate a
possible conflict of interest here? Will she be asked to recuse herself? Democrats, like Chuckie
Schumer will insist, with a straight face, that Leslie Abrams is an honest duly appointed Judge
whose integrity can not be questioned, etc. & etc.
Democrats, through shenanigans like Abrams is pulling, simply will not concede an election until
the Supreme Court of the US makes a final decision. In the meantime, a trove, of Democrat-leaning
provisional ballots, 1,811 to be exact, were discovered in Fulton County Georgia, that, if
believed, could yield results in her favor even though the “trove” is filled with duplicates, wrong
names and wrong signatures. 42% of those provisional ballots were in fact rejected.
Florida is another case in point. Three counties there, Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, are
officially deemed corrupt almost beyond repair. Post-election Florida faces a statewide recount
for both the Governor and Senate races. Protesters have assembled at the core site of the
storm raging over both races and that is the long suspected of election criminality, Broward
Election Supervisor, Brenda Snipes.
Snipes held a Press Conference and didn’t show up. Brenda Snipes, is a wicked elderly lady
with straight white hair, and dedicated to socialisms advancement. She reminds me of an
African version of Disney’s witch in ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.’ In any event, she has
a history of losing, misplacing or burning ballots if the outcome doesn’t agree with the needs of
the Democrat Party. Snipes’s lawyers was asked “how the voters of Florida can expect to have
any confidence in the integrity of the election process in Broward County when Brenda Snipes
“was found by a judge to have destroyed ballots in the race between Tin Canova and Debbie
Wasserman-Schultz?”
A follow up question was how to explain it was ‘transparent’ to have a woman who’s been found
to have destroyed ballots overseeing an election? Those ballots, it was claimed, had been
counted and weren’t relevant to this election. Brenda Snipes has a well documented history of
destroying ballots and breaking the law, yet, she remains in her sincere, rising from the swamp
muck every two or four years to ensure her party’s victory.
A reckoning has to come. Republicans are starting to fight back, for what little good it might do if
the system is rigged, but it’s a start. The fascists are on the move. What’s next, more violence?
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get’m! (12Nov18)
Temporary foreign nationals drivers license “proper” ID at Georgia polls
Opinion November 2, 2018
Written By: D.A. King
This seems far, far away from “voter suppression.” The drivers license Georgia issues to
non-citizens – including illegal aliens who have already been ordered deported – is
acceptable and “proper identification” when casting a ballot.
This, according to multiple staffers at the main office of the Cobb Board of Elections and
Registration office in Marietta when asked multiple times by this early voter last week. To
get an answer, I had to explain what a limited term license is.
For those who are not well versed in the topic, the drivers license DDS issues to foreigners
is labeled “LIMITED TERM” across the top, which is the only difference between it and a U.S.
citizen’s drivers license.
Georgia’s temporary “Limited Term” drivers license. Photo: DDS.
The acceptance appears to be in compliance with Georgia law (OCGA 21-2-417) which
merely says “proper identification shall consist of any one of the following: A Georgia
driver’s license which was properly issued by the appropriate state agency;…”
This brings to mind the several attempts in the last few years under the Gold Dome to
clarify the limitations of the limited term driver license, which, generally, is supposed to be
valid for the period of an alien’s visa.
In the 2017 General Assembly, House Rep Alan Powell introduced a bill to add “INELIGIBLE
VOTER” – which was a compromise to his original language, which would have added the
term “NON CITIZEN” to the non-citizens drivers license. Powell came under attack from the
anti-borders lobby and their media allies and his attempt at driver’s license/voter ID
reform died in the Republican-controlled House.
More than 20,000 aliens who have received a deferral in deportation proceedings or who
have already been ordered deported also hold the same limited term license according to
information from DDS early this year.
In 2016, the state Senate passed a bill sponsored by Senator Josh McKoon that would have
marked the limited term driver’s license held by this group with “NO LAWFUL STATUS.”
McKoon rightly contended his bill would help prevent voter fraud and terrorism. The
driving and ID credentials are also accepted as ID to enter federal buildings and to board
airliners in America’s airports.
Including the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials (GALEO), corporate -funded
opponents argued such reform would “stigmatize” people and represented a ‘Scarlett
Letter’ for “immigrants.” The legislation died in the House.
For this writer, the lunacy that a drivers license designed and intended for foreign nationals
is accepted as valid ID to vote in Georgia is surpassed by the fact that literally no official I
have ever spoken to at my Cobb polling place over the years – supervisors included – had
ever even heard of a “limited term” drivers license.
For a memorable first-hand education, readers may want to ask about this when they vote.
Readers who care about vote security may want to ask their state reps and state senators
about this one.

The Great Awakening, You Can Look It Up!
Opinion October 29, 2018
Trump has moved America so far beyond Obama’s era of compliancy, apathy, and despair that
Obama has personally taken to the stump to stem the Red tide. We’re in a new “great
awakening “of what it means to be a prosperous, industrious, hard working nation of achievers.
That will not do for Socialists or advocates of the New World Order.
There’s more news today about Obama hitting the campaign trail to save his pathetic legacy,
than there is about the bomber from Miami, the caravan from Honduras or the mental
breakdown many of MSNBC and CNN’s entertainers are suffering on camera.
Obama is making fiery teleprompter speeches to dozens of admirers to try to stem the Red Tide
that could signal the final demise of the Democrat Party. Obama himself put the party’s
existence into jeopardy when as president, he all but ignored the party entirely, indeed helped
Hillary drain its coffers while local and state Democratic losses started mounting.
For Obama, Marxism is his catechism, weakness and ineptitude is his policy and arrogance is
his worst enemy, i.e.: “I think that I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters. I know more
about policies on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you right now that I’m
gonna think I’m a better political director than my political director.”
At midwest speaking venues in Milwaukee and Detroit, Obama claimed Trump and Republicans
were just “making stuff up.” Without mentioning Trump by name he said this midterm election
(2018) was about the “character of our country.” Obama cited a recent Trump comment that he,
(Trump) would pass a tax cut (a second one) before the November election then told the crowds
that “Congress isn’t even in session before the election! He just makes it up!” Look it up!
Obama then told a truth: ”Here’s the thing. Everything I say you can look up.” Yes, Barak, we
can: ”If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your health care plan, you can
keep your health care plan.” Then Obama sets about describing himself: ”What we have not
seen before in our public life is politicians just blatantly, repeatedly, baldly, shamelessly, lying.
Just making stuff up, calling up, down. Calling black, white. That’s what your governor (Walker)
is doing with these ads, just making stuff up.” Look it up!
Now Obama wants to claim the rocketing economy as his. After the 2016 election, Bloomberg
reported that: “Trump was inheriting a stable and improving economy compared to the economy
that Obama inherited.” It is from this assertion that Obama now claims: ”When you hear all this
talk about economic miracles right now, remember who started it,” but what Bloomberg failed to
mention was that “the standards and statistics by which they measured economic improvement,
were entirely fraudulent. You can look that up too!
Clinton and her private email server featured in an Obama comment. He said: “Trump used
Hillary’s ‘server’ crimes to try to scare the heck out of people before every election.” He even
trash talked about Trump’s cellphone usage saying the Chinese heard everything he said.
Obama: ”In the last election, it was Hillary’s emails. He quoted Trump: ’This is terrible’ … ‘This is
a national security crisis.’ Obama: They didn’t care about emails and you know how you know?
Because if they did, they’d be up in arms right now that the Chinese are listening to the
president’s iPhone that he leaves in his golf cart.” What?
Listening to Obama stammer and stumble his way through a Castro like speech event is painful
as well as boring, especially as his facts, comments, and opinions won’t stand the muster of
examination. By the way, forget snopes.com. It’s a progressive site that obscures the truth.
Obama intimated that Trump’s concerns about a caravan, especially as the thousands of, well,
how did Obama phrase it?: “a bunch of impoverished, malnourished refugees a thousand miles
away,” are headed here from Honduras, were more important than “health care, whether or not
folks are able to retire, doing something about higher wages, rebuilding our roads and bridges
and putting people back to work.” Say what? Have you looked closely at the photos of those
overfed, clean, prosperous Honduran travelers out on their walk-about?” I think Obama went
into his very short Rip Van Winkle routine on jobs, the economy, and retirement. Barak, you can
look that up as well, it’s in nearly all the papers.
I think Barak worries that he himself could face inditement for involvement in crimes associated
with his former Secretary of State because he rails on about not having anyone in his
administration indited for crimes. Well, that’s for sure when his Attorney Generals were Eric
Holder and Loretta Lynch, both facing probable inditement themselves. Obama: ”In Washington
they (Trump’s Administration) have racked up enough indictments to field a football team.
Nobody in my administration got indicted.” Don’t believe for a minute that Hillary Clinton or her
corrupt Foundation has escaped the scrutiny of Trump’s DoJ.
Obama told his admiring minions: ”I’m hopeful that despite all the noise, despite all the lies,
we’re going to come through all that. We’re going to remember who we are, who we’re called to
be. I’m hopeful because out of this political darkness, I’m seeing a great awakening.” Yes
indeed, for sure he is seeing a Great Awakening but, it’s not a Socialist one.
So, hang in there conservatives, be strong, be steadfast in the face of the Left’s confrontational,
deranged screaming idiots and vote Republican.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (17Oct18)
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)
Making Choices
Opinion September 7, 2018
Every day, we all are faced with making choices. Some are automatic like a shave and shower
and tying our shoes, but the really hard ones, what to wear, what to have for breakfast and how
to avoid work that day, actually requires some thought process. Other are made easy for us like
the News Media that expects us to swallow what they tell us as the truth, even when it isn’t. Like
Pavlov's dog, they expect us to respond accordingly, so long as it advances the Left’s agenda.
Politically, the tawdry display by the degenerate Socialist party USA (Democrats) at this weeks
Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, including by two potential Democrat contenders for Trumps
job, both Marxists, is scary to even contemplate let alone consider seriously as even possible.
Two Democrat hopefuls for POTUS sitting on the Senate Judicial Committee, Cory Booker and
Kamala Harris, demonstrated their complete lack of comity, decency, integrity, respect, and
statesmanship to question their bonafides even to be US Senators. Both were incredibly
disrespectful with their constant ‘showboating’ interruptions, that, combined with the other
Socialist nimrods on the committee who behaved as disrespectfully, then our choices for
political leaders should be easy. Immediately Sen. Grassley opened the hearing, they came on
him like a swarm of locusts attacking a wheat field. What we saw was a Democrat version of
how ‘democracy’ should work. We do have choices, don’t we?
The Socialist Democrat party wants us to accept that America is a ‘democracy’ when it clearly is
not. The word Democracy is found nowhere in our Constitution. Presently, the deranged
socialists, still distraught that Trump beat Hillary for the grand prize, are now demanding a
referendum to change the election process for President from the Electoral to a popular vote.
That’s pure democracy, leadership by popular choice, follow the mob, do what the crowd wants,
“It’s what the people want!” Of course such a change would leave the selection of our President
forever in the hands of the illiterate, unwashed, illegal voters in America’s great sanctuary cities
and states like San Francisco, California, Portland Oregon, Seattle, Washington, Florida and
New York City, hot beds of progressivism, petri dishes in which foment the germs of Marxism.
If you watched any of the Democrat circus performance at the hearings of the Senate Judicial
Committee on the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh then, unless you are a complete Marxist in
heart, mind, body and soul, any thought of voting for any Democrat in this mid-term election,
should have been washed away. It’s a choice we have to make.
It turns out, and confirmed by Democrat Senator Dick Durbin no less, that the disruption of the
hearings had been indeed been orchestrated by Chuckie Schumer. Well, who would have
believed it? The spectators who trumpeted their orchestrated outrage and were dragged out
screaming their socialist nonsense, were there by invitation and required tickets to get in, issued
to them by Democrat Senators. When asked, Schumer said Democrats even wrestled over
staging a mass walkout on the Kavanaugh nomination hearing. Maybe they should have done it.
Isn’t it better to be thought a class of fools than stay there and remove all doubt?
What we see is that the Democrats cannot derail the Kavanaugh confirmation. He going to the
Supreme Court and they can’t stomach. Worse, they worry that Trump may get a third and even
a fourth choice during his remaining six years. I hope the Democrats choke on it. It’s our choice!

Short Takes – A Not Unlikely Solution to the North Korea Problem
Opinion May 14, 2018
A Not Unlikely Solution to the North Korea Problem
A time, date and place has been picked for the historic first meeting between a North Korean family oligarch despot and a definitely nonpolitical mover and shaker President of the United States. The world stands back in breathless anticipation. I still think that “Rocketman” will generate an excuse to back out except, he has lost the favor of China. but, we’ll see!
When one views the whole of the Far-East Asian sphere from space, nearly all the countries, especially Communist China, the largest, are enjoying unparalleled economic prosperity, except there sits, nestled among them North Korea, a small squalid little country, a rotten black spot on the earth un-illuminated by either the science of electricity, the ingenuity of invention or any level of prosperity for its starving people; a savage little kingdom that spends any money it gets on the toys of destruction. and exists only by the power of its threats.
One could suppose the only reason for North Korea’s existence is to keep South Korea from being an Island. We know it exists because we can see it from space in the daylight but as the shadows of night envelope the Korean peninsula, the hermit kingdom retreats like a sea worm back into its dark hole of obscurity, save for the occasional nuclear test flash.
North Korea only exists at China’s pleasure. Now they are becoming a nuisance with their nuclear threats to America, their nuclear detonations that have collapsed a mountain and spewed radioactive contamination, and is still contaminating, a large area of Chinese Manchuria, North Korea itself, the aquifers that lie beneath them, and the Yalu River that is now carrying the poisonous contamination to the Sea of Japan.
China does not want a united Korea on its borders, especially one united under the South Korean model. So, what to do? To solve the problem of the petulant Kim Jung Un, once and for all, China should remove Kim and the hierarchy of the North Korean government that supports him and replace it with a Chinese approved North Korean puppet government and allow No. Korea to enter the prosperity sphere enjoyed by all other asian countries and, that quickly, the Kim problem is solved for everyone. China doesn’t need Kim, it needs quite.
What would China ask in return? How badly does China want their problem child on its border neutralized? I suppose they would demand the return of Taiwan for sure, complete hegemony in the South China Sea, both economic and militarily, and a demand the US Fleet stay out of its waters. Naturally, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Australia, Malaysia & etc. would never agree to that but, those are the cards laid out on the table and they’ll have to be played or negotiated. Trump is the very man for that.
Of course, for successful US policy, the Democrats can never, ever be allowed again to have a seat at that table. If Obama’s foreign policy fiascos are indicative of how a future Democrat government will govern, then it would be a greater danger to the entire world than is Kim.
Obama and Kerry’s Iranian fiasco, their leadership characterized only by back door agreements with Islamist militants, unsupported by any treaty, but agreed upon by a sheepfold of political lackey’s, then Kim and his Ilk, would stay in power forever.
it’s in the Democrats genes to ruin anything that would make America Great Again and doesn’t support inclusion, diversity, multiculturalism, perversion, and etc., etc., & etc.!

Short Takes – 2018
Opinion January 4, 2018
2018
Today is the first day of a brand new year, that drags along with it the sum of all the problems and pretenses of the old year, but accompanied with a dash of sincere hope that under new management, our country can succeed in restoring America to its rightful role, for all the world, as the “Shining Beacon on the Hill.”
I noted that we approach the future under Donald Trump, ‘with a dash of hope,’ but also with a marked lack of enthusiasm. The TEA Party experience seems to have evaporated into thin air after having achieved three consecutive election victories for Conservative principles that finally showed the Marxist-Democrats the door. But those rascals are still out there plotting and scheming and organizing, to undo the grass works efforts that made a Trump Presidency and a Republican Congress possible. From Republicans, there is no gratitude.
Shockingly, the lack of acknowledgement of that effort from our stunned elected politicians who constitute the Republican Party, and who still fail to grasp the import of the tidal wave of political change that eliminated the Democrats, has also swept the GOP’s influence out the door too. They are still reeling in disbelief wondering how a pragmatists became their leader. Apparently some have even “reached across the aisle” to join hands with the Socialist enemy to try to restore their combined hegemony over the American political process. Let the looting continue.
Primary among the GOP “Never Trumpers” stands 4th place loser John Kasich, Governor of Ohio who, if the frequent appeals from his web site to my email address are any indication, still believes he should be the rightful Republican candidate so as to restore to proper governing, the failed process of “bipartisanship” and return our government to the capable hands of the one world government crowd composed of mega banks, international corporations and the quasi assembly of third world nations gathered under the blue banner of the United Nations.
2018 will be another important midterm election experience for conservatism. Also judging by the volume of their appeals for donations, Democrats must truly believe, because Americans really, really hate Trump, that they will capture the House and the Senate again. How they accomplish that goal with an intractable and intransigent, but aging leadership, themselves ready for hospice care, is in serious doubt. Their message never changes, free stuff for everyone, no border walls, protect sanctuary cities and states, and free education and glorify perversion because it’s only fair.
Future leadership for the Democrat party is an unspoken contest between old time American leftists and the corroding influence of foreign ideals (Islam), they are trying to force into the American culture as a norm, a precursor of the coming jihad that turns America into a Caliphate.
Presently, both party’s find their bases confused by indecision. For the Democrats, it’s do they move further left and double down, or move center right to save themselves? For the stupid Republicans, a golden opportunity has been laid at their feet and sure as heck, they’re going to flub it. Where is the TEA parties when we need them? The GOP needs to be cleansed of its socialist heretics. Younger conservative candidates need to be encouraged to step forward and seize the reins of American constitutionalism. As my friend Jack Smith reminds us constantly, “if not now, when?” “If not you, who?”…or something like that. We’ve got to get moving, now.

See What Trump has Wrought
Rumor has it that the GOP will suffer terrible losses in 2018, an off year election losses that comes as surely as Elm blight comes in January. Rumor also has it that the Democrats may survive their current malise and sweep all before them in the off year election, if the had something to offer. A return of Obamacare perhaps, or more perverts in bathrooms? How about making all of America a “sanctuary” country by law? Yes, that should do it. Good selling points.
Why is it assumed that the alternative to the GOP should be a Democrat? They have moved so far to the “Left” as to be no longer recognizable as an American institution. They are a facsimile replica of the old Communist Party USA, an odious group of Marxist-Leninist social engineers whose goal, as a political philosophy, was top down “collectivism.” Losers for over 100 years.
American’s already cast their vote for change when they elected Donald Trump despite the screaming establishment GOP’ers who fought against him and the purveyors of doom and gloom, the geriatric Democrat leadership who fear the truth of Trump’s “Make America Great Again” program could doom them forever. We now know Trump was not bombast but a man of action. We took our chances as voters sick and tired of “diversity and multiculturalism, lying and stealing, Hillary Clinton and her Money laundering foundation and, we see it’s working.
It has taken a year for the “Establishment” GOP to realize that Trump, like a bulldozer, has made changes never thought possible. That’s what Americans wanted, a fighter, not a phony group name that was scared to do anything against the supposed might of the Democrat colossus that wielded power for themselves, not Americans, like they were entitled to it.
Democrat programs have turned out to be a concoction of lies designed solely to social engineer American society into a diverse, multicultural collection of perverts, homosexuals, transgenders and other victims that would keep the Democrats in power. Americans do not want “sanctuary cities” harboring illegal criminals, protecting them from the consequences of their crimes. Americans do not want perverts sharing bathroom facilities with their little children. Americans do not want “collectivism” as their guiding principles but rather would prefer a return to some level of moral and cultural certainty based on the centuries of Judaeo-Christian moral codes that made America great.
For 2018, Trump’s successes are out in the open for all to see. Passing the major overhaul of the “Progressive Tax Plan,” including all but killing off Obamacare by eliminating the odious mandate to buy the thing, is a success that should be trumpeted daily. Let Democrat politicians try to explain why they voted against tax cuts when the rewards start flowing in simply because they didn’t like Trump? Republicans had best get on board and help Trump, not hinder him.
Americans are vaguely aware that the EPA is being reduced and its unconstitutional laws, rules and regulations are being rolled back returning to property owners control of their own property. The Dept. of Energy, under former Texas Governor Rick Perry, is likewise making changes to advance America’s role in the energy sector. Now, we’re selling energy, not buying it.
Another occurrence this past week that made the Democrats go berserk was Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the legitimate capital of Israel. That act alone flushed out the real enemies of the US, the third world nations in the UN enjoying the generosity of American taxpayers. Supported by Nikki Haley that could bode ill for them. Americans want out of the UN!

Short Takes – The Sexual Predator(s) in Our Midst

The Sexual Predator(s) in Our Midst
This story is not new, it just involves new people. I read an account of Maureen O’Hara’s entry into the Hollywood scene in 1945, before her stardom, when she was propositioned by a film studio owner, not identified in the article. Her Irish temper flared and she quickly put an end to his pretensions by telling him if what he wanted was a key to a Hollywood film career, then she was out. Charles Laughton in fact, saved her career.
So, it’s not a new story. It’s still happening and our daughters and grand daughters are not necessarily safe. Even the Boy and Girl Scout programs have been sucked into the perversion of the Left’s plan for sex neutrality. Scouting’s national leaders advanced the notion, for fairness sake of course, that homosexual men could be approved for Scout leadership roles. WTF? I don’t think that’s going to work well after this sexual predator stuff blows over and, it hasn’t even half started. The fallout will be brutal as well as disgusting.
We know “power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” In the sexual harassment cases now bursting out in the Hollywood entertainment industry, the DC swamp, and the Media, so far all Liberal Leftists, are simply the old game being played out by new people who exercise authority over other people who really, really want something (film fame for example) and who are willing to compromise their morals to achieve it. Not all do of course, like Maureen O’Hara, but many do. They might not like it, they might be offended by it, but many do succumb to it. Too, in today’s new America, gay’s, pervert’s and transgenders have openly come out under Obama’s tutelage, to enter the fray, not necessarily to advance their careers, or choose which bathroom to use, but to find easy prey for seduction.
On the political front, apart from Al Franken, it is reported that Rep. John Conyers is in hospital suffering from a stress complaint? I’m not surprised. At 88 years old, he quite possibly is suffering a little bit of the ‘shame’ for his actions that was drilled into us as children, by our parents, our school teachers, our neighbors and our ministers, black and white, back in the 1940’s and 50’s. That’s all gone now. We are left in the hands of perverts, nincompoops and Democrats to tell us how to live in a world of happy diversity and multiculturalism, all while fending off new threats from Sharia Law that permits the raping of infidel women. Conyers’ lawyer said all the complainants against him were from “White Women,” meaning apparently, their complaints were unjustified. Well, no, that’s not what it means at all. What it really means is that Conyers only targeted White Women. Could he be a closet Muslim?
The danger here is that for years these powerful politicians, movie directors, studio owners and Liberal college professors and media icons, have stood as “role models” for the younger men in their employee. Therefore the lessons that cheapen one gender, women, are encouraged as acceptable for the next generation of men to emulate and so on. Another problem sure to face us is that filling the management voids now occurring by the firings of predators, will be challenged by screaming feminists demanding control of the male ego. If a young woman and a young man are in the wooing stage for the purpose of matrimony, a natural act, the feminists will immediately poison the well. Let’s not forget tenured male Progressive professors in America’s communist colleges and universities. Will they be exempt? We haven’t looked there yet.
We’re in trouble folks and we must tread very easily. The weapon of accusation and innuendo can do as much or more damage than a real act and must be seriously guarded against. Roy Moore is a good example of unproven accusations poisoning the well.

Here Comes John Kasich Again
America is caught in a tsunami of sad news, depending on one’s point of view. Mueller hasn’t found dirt on Trump; NFL players openly disrespects the American flag and National anthem; a shooter in Las Vegas kills 58 people; The Hillary campaign and the DNC were responsible for the phony “dossier” against Trump; another Muslim murders eight with a truck in NYC & etc..
But, we still have internal problems that, if not countered could make the next few years a mirror image of the past eight. I have pointed out in previous articles that Ohio Governor John Kasich has a deep yearning that “he needs to be President,” an obsession almost as bad as Hillary’s. The Governor said: “he would represent a different viewpoint, insisting he wants to restore “basic principles of caring, of love, of compassion, of connectedness.” Well, we just got rid of those dysfunctional viewpoints, didn’t we? Ya just can’t keep a good man down, can you?
What he means is that his ‘different viewpoint’ isn’t the one that the impostor Donald Trump, embraces. Kasich clearly believes the polls that shows Trump’s popularity at a low 30% so Trump must be universally hated, not only by the “establishment” but by the citizens who voted for him. That borders on dementia just like Hillary’s. If you believe Trump’s popularity lies at 30%, you should give up reading tea leaves for a living.
Kasich’s ‘different viewpoint’ is the same “compassionate conservatism” BS that George W. Bush championed. It was such an un-conservative point of view that it left the conservative electorate wondering exactly who we were and, it opened the door to the Democrats. We were also suddenly attacked by the dark forces of Islam. It was the 9/11 murders. We were off guard.
Kasich also said “there has to be a fundamental change, in my opinion, with all of us. I’m willing to be part of that (as President). I want my voice to be out there. I want it very, very much.” Fundamental change? Isn’t that exactly what Barack Obama sold enough of us on that he got himself elected twice despite revealing himself as a complete and ultimately incompetent liar, cheat and hypocrite? John Kasich now enters the ranks as a new Progressive.
Since Trumps November 2016 election victory, 4th place runner up John Kasich still pursues a campaign for Trumps job, as a #Never Trump” darling of the “Establishment.” He insists that Trump was really not who the American people wanted but that Trump was a usurper of the Republican party platform substituting his own “Make America Great Again” plan while ignoring the Party’s principles and advice.
But, Trump is President, and indeed, has started draining the swamp, including republicans. My only observation about that is that Trump never realized just how deep the swamp really was, and despite all the caterwauling from the “elites” including John Kasich, Trump has revealed that the swamp creatures individually are unidentifiable as anything other than corrupted politicians, no matter their party affiliation. Party affiliation only counts at election time. After the election, let the looting continue!
John Kasich reveals himself. Essential to his desire to “restore basic principles of caring, of love, of compassion, of connectedness” is his determination to cling to bipartisanship,with Democrats, to do Americans work. I don’t believe Kasich really knows or understands the enemy he wants to embrace with his “hands across the aisle” nonsense unless he’s one of them. One need only look no further than John McCain, to see and understand the failure of that idea.
