Criminal Negligence

I am still fuming over the nonsense spewing from all sides in the recent school shooting incident.

Once more, our political class falls all over themselves in positioning to do nothing.

We send our kids into unsecure, unprotected open shooting galleries and demand useless things when it occurs over and over.

When all of these people were afraid of highjackers killing them, they demanded armed air marshals on planes. They demand their money is protected by armed guards. They want armed police to respond to a threat of violence in their home.

Yet they send their kids to an unsecure building where no one there can respond to an assailant armed with minimal weaponry.

It’s as if the children were expendable to make a political point. Oh wait…

Deep State Thoughts On A Winter Night

There is a rally scheduled for 2/21 in Pennsylvania.

I grow more encouraged by the day.

He made a real offer on immigration and the Dems are looking bad to refuse.

He got the military funded, knowing he will have to cut spending in the executive branch at execution level, not by congress.

He is holding firm on trade, so far.

The progressives are showing themselves to be more and more extreme every day. Anti real prosperity, Anti military, anti white, condescending to blacks and browns.

The corruption is slowly coming to the public consciousness.

Time for a rally.

If the GOP holds the house and gains in the Senate, the GOP is his and the deep state will have a new master.

One thing about shallow power … Continue reading

Meet Frank Luntz

Here’s Frank Luntz in the initial wave of #Shithole commentary.:

Someone please tell me how insulting billions of people across the globe makes America great again.

Teach me how you defend the indefensible, because I sure can’t. https://t.co/ASRJ3SF7cZ

He’s been a darling of the squish-right since the squishies were granite.

His focus groups were popular during the Bush (I think) and Obama administrations for telling the truth of popular conservatism to the power of leftist media shills.

Back when I was all into Hugh Hewitt’s formerly wonderful radio show, Hugh was all into Frank Luntz.  I bet that relationship has not soured, but I’m no longer down with Hugh.  Hewitt showed himself to be a scorched-earth … Continue reading

Newser — Leftist News, or just Lefty News?

It can be difficult to sort out the source from the selection.  I’m looking at Newser.com because it popped up in my FB feed a couple of times, and so far, hasn’t #triggered my bias meter.  Oh, it’s all likely leftism of some sort or another, seeing as it’s news and all, but I wonder if it is damnably biased or merely flawed.  In today’s news environment, those are the two ends of the spectrum.

Any opinions one way or the other?

Death to the Kims

North Korea has sent some athletes to participate with South Korean athletes in a combined team.

This shameful proposal should have been rejected by the South Koreans, and should not be celebrated by anybody, least of all Americans.

Do you know the horrors of the North Korean slave state? The torture and frankly, genocide? Kim Jong Un, his foul family, and his political cronies may all be North Korean, but genocide it is — like the Khmer Rouge.

I do not want to be friends with Kim Jong Un, neither with a successor state, nor with anybody who will become friends with the unspeakable horror from beyond the 38th parallel.

I want Kim Jong Un dead, killed before, during, or after regime change. The exact sequence is a … Continue reading

Curmudgeon Musings- The Long War for America- Meme Battlespace

The sources I have been following indicate that there is a significant more to come on the FBI-DOJ-DNC-Russia Imposter Nexus.

I think I can see an information and messaging war plan here, at least I hope the Good Guys have one.

The White Hats had to know that the Media and their street gang the Democrats were going to trash the Nunez Memo no matter what it said. I do believe it was kept simple for that purpose. One message has to be retained: THE FBI and the DOJ spied on Trump and his campaign and let Hillary off the hook. It is simple and it hits the American “fairness” reflex.

The response has been actually all over the map and contradictory. The accusations by the Left are … Continue reading

Atlanta Fed Calls 5.4% First Quarter GDP

I have talked before about the signs of growth in our economy. Since the election, the small to midsized companies I deal with have seen good times.They have full order books, and are giving raises to keep skilled employees, hiring new ones, replacing the aged truck fleets and production equipment they have run the wheels off for the last ten years.

Their employees are spending on new cars and buying health insurance for their families.

I just talked to a Ford dealer who had the last hi roof extended length commercial Ford Transit van in the Pacific Northwest, all the rest were sold as soon as they rolled off the train.

Manufacturers are adding products and a metal fab place I know is adding a third shift to … Continue reading
