THE END IS NEAR

The "Republican Party" or actually the historic businessmen who supported it in the past, have relinquished political power and there was little to take its place. To be fair, they were busily building companies after World War II, innovating for the benefit of everyone in the world, and creating jobs and prosperity at home. And so came and went the greatest moment for the greatest country in the history of the world. Politically however the country was being infiltrated by liberals who went on to become socialist-informed Progressives. Then came the '60s and the kids went crazy. Most university professors climbed aboard sex, drugs and rock n roll to be popular -- the "achievement" goal of that time. Mainstream, older university administrators were ill prepared and with little backbone gave in to the kids. From there on it simply was a matter of time. JFK got killed and LBJ took advantage. The world of squeaky-wheel activism was born and grew...almost all on the Left because Republicans were too polite and too busy building businesses. Somewhere around then, trial lawyers thought activism was a great thing for making money. They started suing and business executives, frightened of negative reputations and potentially large awards by clueless jurors, they caved and settled for cash their insurance companies paid. The Democratic Party saw the same opportunity and legislated for more possibilities to sue, and greater awards, including class actions where the awards became gigantic. Trial lawyers slowly became one of the major sources of financing for the Democratic Party which handed out quid pro quo whenever possible.

Fast forward to NOW. Republicans are clueless. The Democratic Party owns the educational establishment from pre-K through Ph. D.; the educational industry, non-profit activist non-profits; the entertainment industry; the non-Fox/WSJ media from the New York Times and its long tentacles, and  Rolling Stone, to the alphabet of propaganda NBC CBS ABC NPR CNN MSNBC PBS MTV;  The Left is financed by Democrat-legislated union monopolies over government workers and mandated dues taken from them; and, of course, the aforementioned trial lawyers..... The end is near. 

I am writing a book about The End.

The World Needs Jeb Bush

In his blog Bernard Goldberg.com today, Bernard Goldberg declares that The Donald will not run for president, again.

 I respond:

I for one am sick and tired of a narcissist mismanaging our country and the world.  Trump would be unable to work with anyone else or certainly to give a modicum of credit to anyone else.  Sound familiar?  That is the situation the world faces with who I like to characterize as the President of the Democrats. Obama has attempted naive resets with killers around the world: Putin, Assad, the Castros, and now the Ayatollah of Iran. These people have taken advantage of Obama's dangerous ego coupled with his absolute ignorance of much of anything except how to convince the ignorant and naive to elect and reelect him. With the outright anti-Republican support of the New York Times, and its branches of "news" (sic) papers around the country including the Seattle Times; the wrongly labeled popular media assisted: NBC MSNBC CBS ABC PBS NPR CNN. Plus the educational establishment,   entertainment industry and more. All want LiberalProgressiveDemocrats to control this country. Why? Because they seem to think the Left is standing firm against The Man who they see as businesses and Republicans.  While in reality The Man is the Democratic Party clinging to its near-absolute power. Its destructive-to-prosperity union bosses, trial lawyers and non-profits that take the money created by businesses and use it to destroy those businesses. It is working, our growth after the Democrat-run federal government-caused recession has been miserable while the government has thrown billions around to keep its power, calling it "stimulus."

The world is on fire from dictators' uprisings or plunges into near-anarchy: Pakistan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Burundi and others I can't remember or spell.

Russia and the Peoples Republic of China are ominously threatening us and former allies in the Gulf states, Egypt and Israel (and France, Germany and England) are distancing themselves from a confused and weak America. 

All the while, Obama is worried that there aren't enough women here running businesses or that homosexuals can't get married or that some people succeed while others don't.  And he states that the greatest threat facing our country and the world is...the sun.  Hun?  Yep, Global Cooling (the '70s and '80s), Global Warming (the '90s and '00s), and now that those two labels have been proven wrong: Climate Change (no duh, it ALWAYS changes). "The End of the World is NIgh!" Malthus stated in the 1700s and now Obama promises that centuries later.. WTF?  Are most Americans just wanting to be fooled? And hasn't humanity proven the ability to innovate to solve every problem since 5 billion years BC (Oops, that is not politically correct, it's B. C. E. now.  Look it up.) Either you believe in "We the People" (Republicans) or you do not (Democrats)!

So in reality, the world NEEDS an experienced, solid, sober, comfortable, intelligent, modest pro-business president with a sense of humor. That leads only to one person who can win: Jeb Bush. The country and the world are at the brink.  The U. S. can die from bitter Progressive oppression of any single person or organization that disputes the primacy of its funding groups (freedom of speech): union bosses, trial lawyers (the quiet thieves), environmental billionaires, and the moral superiority of its "squeeky wheel" microrities who reap billions of dollars in payola: The gay, the rich, those with darker-colored skin, government workers and the less-than-1%ers.  True that covers most everyone in the country except the rational, the hard-working, the employers.  Bush has a better chance of capturing the non-Hillarites.

They Got Us Again

Here they go again.

The LiberalProgressiveDemocrats (PLDs) have turned the tables on the regular people of the United States of America. Used to be -- when I was young -- we were respectful and a little bit afraid of the police. Afraid enough not to commit crimes.  Well I did a couple times. My brother and I threw stones to break windows in an abandoned house in Cedar Hills, Oregon. After the act, we looked at each other and not wanting to go to jail, hightailed it (as we used to say) home. No one ever said anything.

That wasn't the case two other times.  Once alone I shoplifted a couple of candy bars at Ranko's Pharmacy in Tacoma. The clerk caught me and luck wouldn't have it, a policemen was outside.  He was brought in to lecture me. I was about eight, and he truly scared me, he was tall and imposing in his blue uniform and deep voice. Mom was called and she came and led me home in shame.

It was years later, about seven or eight when my cousin and I were at the grocery store in Lakewood, Washington.  Seemed a good idea to steal some more candy (I think, I really can't remember what it was) and we did.  Apparently we weren't opaque with our activities: the store manager was watching from a mezzanine-office window. He came down, nabbed us, took us up to the office and called the police.  Then Mom, again, and I suppose my aunt, my cousin's mother. We were 13 or 14. The police came and as they say, read us the riot act, and scared the heck out of me. I don't know about Diana, whether she even remembers. That did it! My life of crime was scared out of me.  I have never committed another robbery.  Or theft.  Or crime, except perhaps speeding.

Fear worked.

Now, though, fear seems to be evil (or perhaps "against Progressive social norms," because there is no such thing as "evil") and that concept is supposed to be a reminder of Republican times. There is a new federal Justice Department probe of Baltimore is to "repair the public's trust in the Baltimore Police Department...by bringing about transparency, accountability, and greater community understanding" said Baltimore's mayor, Stephanie Rawlings-Blake wrote in a letter to the new United States Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, both darker-skinned females. This federal probe which looks only for misconduct on the part of police officers in order to renew "trust" of the community with the police. ("Poleeeese.")

Call me old fashioned.  But I actually naively thought that the duty of the police is to degrade and destroy crime. Crime against citizens and their property. Part of that is to cause a healthy respect and fear of the police, not derision.

The LPDs have convinced us -- "We the People" -- that the police are hanging around to make the community feel great about itself, just after that community burned, destroyed and looted its own community and beat a few of them up.  WHAT?  The community that pelted a retreating police troop with huge, dangerous rocks and cement blocks. And a week or so later, amidst celebratory parties and media coverage of the arrest of policemen.

Yes, here they go again.  And they got us again.

Ladies and gentlemen we have lost our country to a gaggle of mad power-hungry politicians and reporters.

They will never stop!  No one in power EVER has voluntarily relinquished their power except by our political system that itself is being ignored, and George Washington.

BLACK LIVES MATTER: Blacks, Whites and crime in New York CIty

There are approximately 8,500,000 residents in New York City.

Blacks make up about 23% -- 1,955,000 people--
YET:
They represented 62% of murder victims
          committed 80% of all shootings
                            70%  of all robberies
                            66% of all violent crime

Whites make up about 35% -- 2,975,000 people
YET:
They   committed  1% of all shootings
                               5% of all robberies
                               5% of all violent crimes


There are about 25,000 police and allied law enforcement officers.

Since the 1990s a Republican Mayor, Rudy Giuliani and Police Commissioner William Bratton launched a war on crime, of sorts.  Since then crime has dropped 80%!  Correlation not causation?

Beginning 1994 they began to attempt to stop crime not react to it, using data, and including legally-justified asking questions to those thought (arbitrarily and racist to some, based on experience and common sense to others) to be acting suspiciously. Precinct commanders were held responsible for crime in their areas. Like it or not, playing with the numbers comes up with about 10,000 black and Hispanic male lives saved, since nearly 80% of the homicide deaths were of those groups.  BLACK LIVES MATTER!

Instead of "Hands Up, Don't Shoot!" how about "Hands Up, Please Frisk!?" And live.
