Democrats Address Their Issues

Since President Obama ascended to the Presidency, his party has since lost over 1000 seats across the nation at all levels of Government. Their numbers have dwindled by more than sixty seats in the House of Representatives, they have lost twelve Senate seats, eleven Governor’s mansions, and they now only have full governing control in five states. They have lost mayor’s seats, city and county seats, and at every level of Government. The party is now in a state of disarray and they must do some serious soul searching to try and figure out how to rebound from the devastating losses they have experienced over the last few years. In addressing the Democrats losses the other day, President Obama showed crucial insight and lots of courage laying the blame for his party’s dismal showing at the polls right where it belongs. Fox News! How is that for being on the money? He blamed the network for poisoning people’s minds and muddying up the political waters in a way that they could not clearly see what was in the water. He went on to add to the list of villains, the ubiquitous and shadowy “fake news” outlets that are now saturating the airwaves, the internet and every other medium. Never one to be outdone, Hillary Clinton joined the fray, and also claimed that “fake news” in addition to the Russians, the “alt-right,” and white supremacists are responsible for her loss. Other leaders chimed in, blaming the Nazi Donald Trump, his appeal to the fears of the American people, and his appealing to our “darker angels” as just some of the reasons that the Democrat Party is now in disarray. To battle these nefarious forces of the Republican Party, conservatives and the populist movement that have toppled them from power and taken the nation by storm, they have called on the formidable duo of the old guard in Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Shumer to lead them back to the green pastures of the promised land, out of the political wilderness. To lead the Democratic National Council, they are now looking favorably at the popular, and by no means controversial young congressman Keith Ellison. To show that they are on the right track, Mr. Shumer recently gave a hint of the strategy that they intend to employ, when he recently charged that “Republicans are about to wage a war on seniors.” Mrs. Pelosi, showing that she was quite in touch with the rest of her party declared that she did not think people were calling on Democrats to go in a different direction. Mr. Ellison let it be known that he did not believe the Democrats should forsake identity politics (he actually said this folks).
Now that they have shown their hand, everyone should congratulate them for their self-awareness, their honesty, recognizing their problems and addressing them head on. With such honesty, insight, foresight and the ability to make the tough choices, they should reclaim their former glory sooner rather than later. Let’s cheer them on. They will be back in power sooner than expected. Bravo!

The Politics of Fear and Crying Wolf

Hitler, Nazi, fascist, racist, hater, bigot shouts the leftist at any one who does to disagree with the leftist ideology or agenda. The term that is most popular and in vogue currently is white supremacist. To be labeled a white supremacist, all one has to do is read Breitbart News. This labeling is meant to stir deep seated emotions. It is meant to raise the fear factor up a notch or two and cause great alarm amongst minorities, victim groups and anyone else for whom the left sees itself as the premier advocate and champion, and those who sympathize with the cause. No proof of racist, fascist, hateful, or bigoted behavior is ever needed. Those labelled simply have to have a different opinion that the left interprets this way before the political inquisition to silence the offensive opinion begins.

Many of the people who hurl out the term white supremacist have no interest in healing what racial tension does exist amongst the populace. They prefer to keep grasping at straws that they can then hold up as proof that “racism is alive and well indeed.”  Since the election of Donald Trump, the race pimps have been out in full force, and seem to have a bigger vested interest in propagating the myth that white people want to take the country back to the halcyon days when black people rode at the back of the bus.

Weeks after the election, the Clinton campaign is still on the trail trying to convince anyone who would listen that they lost the elections because of the bigots, who apart from being white supremacists, are also sexist, misogynist, homophobic, xenophobic and other bigots, but by a long shot their favorite villains are the white supremacists who are about to revive the Klu Klux Klan. The people who continue in their attempt to irresponsibly stir this kind of tension amongst Americans refuse to take a deep introspective look to figure out why their candidate was unable to connect with the electorate, to win the coveted prize. Instead they choose to cast aspersions on tens of millions of Americans who simply wanted nothing to do with someone they considered a flawed, dishonest, corrupt candidate and her destructive policies, in addition to the horrible campaign that she ran.

Since the election of Barrack Obama the Democrats have suffered devastating losses across the country, from Senate and Congressional seats to Governorships, state legislatures and local governments. They have suffered such tumultuous defeat that the Republican Party is now the strongest it has been since the 1920’s.  Instead of looking inwardly for solutions, leftists continue to make excuses for their dismal showing at the polls over the last eight years, and they refuse to accept any responsibility for their own fall. They point instead to scary monsters disguised as the American people. That is fine. Let them continue to hold millions of Americans in contempt. Let them continue to accuse those who disagree with their agenda of being bigots. They can continue to desecrate our great institutions and mock our traditions.  Let them go ahead and be the party of flag burners. They can continue to spew their anti-police rhetoric, and hold the Military in disdain. Let them continue to be the party where anti-American sentiment is welcome, and patriotism is frowned upon. Let them be the party of illegal immigration and the party that holds brutal dictators like Fidel Castro in high esteem while they denigrate the founding fathers who were products of the age in which they lived, yet were way ahead of their time in developing the concepts that laid the foundation that made today’s America possible. Let the Democrat party continue to be the place where freedom of religion, freedom of speech and the second amendment are no longer cherished, but are now considered as major hindrances in the pursuit of their agenda. Let them be the party that continues to push the doctrine of victimhood and government dependence. The American people are slowly recognizing them for who they are as they continue to expose themselves.

The truth is that they can only label people, insult them and accuse them of being evil scoundrels who only want to destroy the elderly, eat babies for dinner, subjugate women, take black people back to Jim Crow while releasing toxic gases into the atmosphere for so long before that type of message reaches a wear out date. So let them continue indeed with their destructive policies, and their derision of the American people. As long as they do, those who continue to believe in the cause of freedom, the virtues of self-reliance, faith in God, respect for our traditions while appealing to our can do spirit, and sense of togetherness will hopefully succeed in advancing their infinitely more upright cause.

Trump, Flag burning, Twitter Trolling, and the First Amendment

Yesterday Donald Trump sent out a controversial tweet about what he thinks should happen to people who burn the American Flag, and in the process he sent the media into a tailspin. Swift denouncements followed, and discussions about the legality of flag burning ensued. The media loves to call Trump a dictator, and a tyrant even though he has not yet assumed the office of the President of the United States as yet, and Mr. Trump’s declaration that people who burn the flag should either have to spend a year in jail or lose their citizenship gave the media more ammunition to fire at him. It should be made absolutely clear that the idea of throwing people in jail for burning the flag is utter nonsense. It is not going to happen! Donald Trump has no authority to make this happen, neither does the congress have this authority, unless they make a fundamental change to the United States constitution. It has been established that flag burning is protected free speech, and this is not something that the courts are likely to ever overturn. Free speech and the other rights guaranteed in the first amendment are the hallmarks or a free society, and whenever governments succeed in their attempts to infringe on any of these fundamental rights, that society will eventually cease to be free, because if such fundamental rights can be tampered with, then no other right is sacrosanct.

Having said all of this, some believe that the media is reading Trump the wrong way on this issue. He did not propose passing a law that punishes people for burning the flag. He simply expressed his personal feelings on it. This may sound like a stretch  to some, but consider the words of no less a figure than Justice Antonin Scalia, the towering conservative stalwart who sat on the Supreme Court for a number of years. Justice Scalia, a strict originalist was the deciding vote on the Supreme Court in the case that upheld flag burning as speech protected by the first Amendment. Here are the words of Justice Scalia during an event held by Princeton Professor Robert George, he said: “If it were up to me, I would put in jail every sandal-wearing, scruffy-bearded weirdo who burns the American flag, but I am not king.” Again, just to reiterate; this is the Supreme Court justice who conservatives hold in extremely high esteem, expressing how he feels about a certain type of speech (flag burning) that he unequivocally abhors. He recognized that his feelings did not matter, but his fidelity to the United States constitution and his obligation to be true to it was the important issue at hand. We should also remember that back in 2005, Hillary Clinton co-sponsored a bill in the Senate to make flag burning a crime, but that too was destined to fail. Donald Trump expressing how he feels about flag burners should not alarm anyone, he is not king.

Donald Trump, apart from being a successful businessman is also a gifted and accomplished “musician” with a skill that no one else possesses. He can play the media like a fiddle. The media probably does not even recognize when they are being played, and if they do; they do not have much of a choice, but to cover him. President Elect Trump knows the kind of attention that his tweets generate, and he is using the media to draw attention to something that he cares deeply about. The primary theme of Mr. Trump’s recent campaign was “make America Great Again.” He has stressed over and over again that he intends to put “America first.” The man is un-apologetically pro-America, he loves his country, and is proud of it. While it is trendy amongst many millennials and remnants of the hippie generation/mentality to point out America’s flaws as reasons to be contemptuous towards the country, Mr. Trump sees the good, the tremendous accomplishments of America and the leading role this country has played in moving civilization forward, more than any other country, empire or kingdom has ever done in the history of the world. In highlighting his tweet and the hysteria that will naturally follow, Trump knows that some will be incited to do more flag burning to protest what they perceive as his tyrannical stance. In doing so the left will again be on display for all to see. The rabid hatred that many people who have been born and raised in this country have for it is astonishing, and the more that they expose themselves, the more people will reject their message, and support for Mr. Trump will be stronger and perhaps even increase.

Donald Trump is a classic Twitter troll in many respects. He knows how to rile up the traditional media. He understands very well that it does not take much for those who oppose him to become unhinged. Tweets like the one he sent out yesterday are purposeful, and true to form, the leftist/Democrat media sycophants whose job it now formally is to discredit Mr. Trump at every turn, reacted according to script. Donald Trump cannot do anything to people who burn the flag, he has no intention of even trying, but he does certainly intend to continue trolling the media and the rabid haters afflicted by Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Thankfulness, and Appreciating America

It was absolutely uplifting and refreshing to see a young man who emigrated to the United States give his perspective on the whole flag protest controversy. The young man’s name is Cyrus Kouandjio. He is a tackle who plays for the Buffalo Bills. Here is what he said, “my father still tells stories of running away from the violence, hiding out in the woods, his baby sister on his back. He lived in a far different world.” He said “I can’t kneel during the anthem, I don’t blame Colin Kaepernick for doing what he did. But for me, I have too much respect for a flag and anthem that represents freedom and liberty. I love this country,” he said. “Me myself, I’ll just tell you, I’m a Christian, and I feel like the forefathers of this country built this constitution around Christian values — Christian values like freedom, liberty and the pursuit of happiness — and I’m just glad to be a part of it.”  How’s that for a perspective based on gratitude?

Here is a young black man who understands and appreciates how blessed he is to live in this country. He understands that there is no other country in the history of the world that has afforded so much opportunity to so many of such diverse backgrounds. This young man feels the need to show gratitude to the country that has given him such a magnificent chance to be successful. He understands that success or happiness is not guaranteed, but that the pursuit of these endeavors is what’s guaranteed, and that he has as good a chance as anyone to achieve them. He feels no animus towards America because it is imperfect. He does not view the United States through the prism of any injustice committed in the past, but instead through the lens of what it has done to correct past mistakes, what it is today, and continues to striving to be.

People like Kaepernick and so many other Americans frown over slavery without appreciating that many worked diligently to abolish it, and that a civil war was fought over it. They complain about Jim Crow, but do not consider the civil rights acts, and desegregation that put Jim Crow in history’s garbage can to combat injustice. Any American who experiences prejudice in the workplace can go to his/her HR department to remedy the situation, or they can file a case with the Equal Opportunity Commission, and the case will surely be given priority. Members of the victim patrol only see the prejudice, and never appreciate that there are structures in place to combat it. They see injustice but not the fight to overcome it. Mr. Kouandjio has the outlook of many foreigners who come to this country truly knowing what hardship, and prejudice and injustice is. They recognize how blessed they are to live in America where racists are generally shunned, and many advocacy groups (private and government) always fight on behalf of the downtrodden.

This young man is a true role model. He has made a choice to not take on the posture of a victim. He has no desire to spit on our venerable traditions, nor to trample them under foot to prove a point. He understands that in life bad things sometimes happens, that prejudice, and injustice are facts of life. He does not have an impossible standard of perfection in order to appreciate the country he has adopted as his own. He has no unreasonable demand to see all injustice cease before he can be thankful for the many blessings that he does have. It is a beautiful thing to see this type of maturity in a young black man whose mind has not been polluted or poisoned by college professors who tell young people every day that America is an unjust land where black people, and certain other groups are at a major disadvantage simply because of who they are. The indicators suggest that Mr. Kouandjio has rejected that narrative, and he is thankful to be an American. Yes! Thankful. A mentality that many Americans will do well to embrace. Being thankful does not mean sticking ones head in the sand and denying that life is sometimes fraught with difficulties. It is simply a demonstrated and felt appreciation for the good things in one’s life, and even recognizes that in the bad there are also reasons to be grateful.

Paul the apostle, in a letter to one of the early churches wrote; “in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Trump Protests

Anyone who wonders what life in the twilight zone looks like needs only to look at the post 2016 Presidential Elections. All across the country we see protesters marching against the President-Elect in the hope that…not quite sure what they hope to achieve. They do not like the election results so they are screaming at the top of their lungs “not my President,” “hey, hey, ho, ho Donald Trump has got to go.” Students have staged walkouts, others have blocked roadways, some are calling for his “impeachment,” others are destroying property, attacking Trump supporters, and in some instances others are rioting. The entire display is filled with unbelievable hate and vitriol. The people in the streets at the moment are the ones who were calling for, and demanding that Trump accept and respect the election results when they thought their candidate would win. Of course the media is not condemning the current events with the same gusto they used when they railed against some violent incidents that occurred at a few Trump rallies, (incidents that paled in comparison to the acts of violence against Trump supporters) prior to the elections. Protesting is a cherished tool of Democracy, but it is important to keep in mind that Mr. Trump has not even been sworn in to office as yet.

“There will be casualties on both sides, there will be, because people have to die to make changes in this world.” These are the words of one protester as she raised her voice in righteous indignation protesting against Donald Trump. Liberals are blaming racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia and other types of bigotry for the election of Donald Trump. It is shameful that people are behaving in this way, and it takes away from the genuine occurrences, and the seriousness, and elements of real racism that exists in our country. From a purely ideological perspective, it is quite delicious to see people on the left lose their minds over this election. Observing the breath taking hypocrisy of the left is truly amazing. Once again we have proof positive that in America the left is not held to the same standard that everyone else is held to, and that they can get away with anything. One thing that they must keep in mind however, but of which they seem to be totally, and blissfully unaware, it is that crying wolf falsely, eventually loses its effectiveness.

The left believes that screaming “F… Donald Trump,” or “Rape Melania,” flying Mexican flags and burning American flags will endear them to most Americans, but they are incapable of self-reflection and recognizing their error. They do not even see the irony in their behavior as they bellow at the top of their lungs “love trumps hate.” This behavior means that they will continue refusing to self-reflect, and as a result; they will make the same mistakes over and over again-until they do learn to self-reflect.

The left refuses to consider the possibility that the American people simply do not like their agenda and many of the things they stand for, and the American people therefore rejected it. This refusal on the part of the left bodes well for the conservative movement if they make use of the opportunity, and refuse to give in to the left’s premise, and accept the narrative of the left, then become defensive. Leftists fail to realize that they are the ones who are trying to change the country in ways that Americans just a few years ago would have found difficult to believe.

In addition to the aforementioned, constantly labeling the people of this country as bigots is not a winning strategy. In the minds of leftists, white people have no reason to be dissatisfied with anything because after all, white people are a monolithic group of rich oppressors. It seems that liberals believe that targeting the largest ethnic group with negative and hateful rhetoric, and caricaturing and stereotyping them is a way to draw these people to their side. They say the nastiest things about white people, they celebrate because white people’s numbers are decreasing, they blame them for everything that is wrong in the country, and they delegitimize the concerns of white people, but then are surprised when white voters reject their agenda and their ideology.

Those who opposed Barrack Obama never reacted this way to his election. People were just as disappointed when John McCain and Mitt Romney lost, but they never acted this way. The Tea Party never behaved in this manner. No one can produce any video of a tea party rally with people shouting F… President Obama, or beating up his supporters, in fact; tea party members were the victims of violence at their own rallies.  The Tea Party was the model of conducting dissent in a civil manner. They even cleaned up their garbage, and tried to leave the sites where they held their rallies cleaner than they met them. They opposed Mr. Obama’s policies, and never started protesting until Mr. Obama was sworn in to office and began implementing his agenda. They were savaged by the press and accused of racism at every turn. Criticizing the first black President was anathema. Today it is once again considered patriotic to dissent. It is now OK to say anything no matter how vile against the new President-Elect, and he has not even taken the oath of office as yet. It is going to be one heck of a ride!

Lift Up Your Head Trump Voters

Keep your head up those of who you voted for Donald Trump, and remember why you did it.  You did nothing wrong, you have no reason to feel ashamed, and most of all; do not allow yourself be cowered into silence. You listened to the candidates. You examined their stance on the issues, and you voted your conscience for the person you believed is best suited to run the country for the next four years (regardless of how you feel about him personally). That’s the way the system works. As the left becomes more unhinged, and shows their true colors you should feel vindicated in your decision. Once again, the people who continue to always demonize those who disagree with them as bigots, are demonstrating that they are the intolerant ones. As usual, they are engaging in what they do best when they do not get their way. They are resorting to acts of violence and intimidation, destroying property and insulting those who did not vote for their candidate.

Ladies and gentleman when we say to you that leftism is dangerous, it is not hyperbole. We do not say this to get people riled up emotionally, or to be provocative, but to enlighten them, and help them to understand this nefarious movement. It is often disguised in the mantle of caring and compassion, and is based heavily on feelings. It is an ale of self-righteousness that leaves its practitioners inebriated, and in the process affects their ability to reason.  Results do not matter! Because liberal policies generally do not work, and they cannot survive in the arena of ideas, the tools that the proponents of this dangerous philosophy employ are designed to shame those who oppose them into submission. There is no need to argue on the merits of illegal immigration when you can simply paint opponents as anti-immigrant. Having a discussion on the barbarism of abortion is not necessary when one can portray abortion opponents as anti-women or misogynists. A discussion on how a mandatory minimum wage hurts the people it is intended to help, and how it hurts the economy in general becomes totally unnecessary if one can successfully convince everyone that those who oppose it are heartless politicians who only want to protect their rich friends, and big business. One simply needs to throw out the word homophobe, or bigot to kill any debate about why it is not a good idea for the government to force a business to participate in a gay wedding if the owners have a religious objection to it. This strategy saves liberals from the need to always defend their ideas, because they win most of their support by tapping into the raw emotion that is usually attached to their policies.

When the left preaches tolerance, what they mean is tolerance for their agenda. Tolerance in their world is a one way street. When they speak of diversity, it does not include diversity of ideas. What it actually means is conformity to their ideas or else… Their behavior since the election of Donald Trump exposes these people for who they are. In this video a group of black men beat up a Trump supporter. “Beat his a..s,”, one of the women shouts as the young men pummel the man for the sole reason that he voted for Donald Trump (or they think he did because he is white). How’s that for tolerance? In this story, the righteous crowd in their indignation become very hostile. They called for an end to “white supremacy,” they vandalized buildings, burned Trump in effigy, and shattered glass in a surrounding building. With their usual grandiose eloquence they wrote: Die whites, F..k Trump in graffiti, and engaged in other strident misbehavior.  This is not incidental, it is standard operating procedure for the left, they will do anything, they will stop at nothing to further their agenda. This is who they are. We have seen it over and over again across the decades. Here are just a few more stories that feature the “tolerant” left:

As the left continues to discredit itself, hold your head up high If you are a Trump supporter. Those of you who are still in the closet, come out with boldness. Remember why you voted for Donald Trump. Your causes are just, they make sense. Illegal immigration and a smart overall immigration policy that places emphasis on the benefits to America is a legitimate issue. Smart trade policies that place Americans first make sense. Addressing the plight of Americans in the inner cities who have been taken for granted by Democrats for decades is not racist. You are not misogynistic because you rejected one of the most corrupt people to run for the office of the President. You voted to get rid of the albatross that is Obamacare, because of the constant race baiting, class warfare and the incessant appeal to identity politics. You do not like the stupid Iran Nuclear arms deal, the way that the fight against Islamic Terrorism has been fought, and you voted for law and order. The freedoms enshrined in the constitution like the first and second amendment are important to you, and you are tired of political correctness. Some of you liked the message of more school choice for you children, and the idea of school vouchers. This is why you voted! So no, do not hang your head in shame because you voted for Donald Trump, in fact; you should be proud because you said no to the status quo, in favor of someone who you believe is willing to make tough decisions, tackle the issues that are important to you, and initiate real change.

President-Elect Trump

Congratulations to Donald Trump on his astounding victory on becoming the President-Elect and defeating Hillary Clinton in the Process. No one would have thought this possible when Mr. Trump first announced that he would be running to be the Republican candidate for President. Using an unorthodox approach to run his Campaign, Trump mowed down all 16 of his Republican rivals in the process, leaving many hurt feelings, bruised egos, alienating many and making some enemies along the way. He was not the preferred candidate. Many found his style boorish and completely lacking in civility. At times he unnecessarily made himself a pariah, pushing away some of the very people whose support he would need to help him win the election. He never fully gained the backing of his party, but managed to rally many of the disaffected grassroots who were tired of the establishment, and were just plain weary of the seeming contempt in which the people of the country were held. Mr. Trump became the leader of a movement. He seemed to shoot himself in the foot over and over again. Many felt that he would eventually commit political suicide, and that his campaign would blow up in the process. Mr. Trump proved his resilience though, and in keeping with the theme of one of his books he demonstrated “the art of the come back,” over and over again.

It is difficult to recall any candidate having to overcome so much odds to ascend to the highest office in the land, but Trump with his take no prisoners style fearlessly took on all comers, mauling them all in the process and leaving a trail of blood along the way to the his victory on election night. The media industrial complex galvanized themselves in opposition to the candidate, forsaking all pretense of journalistic integrity in the process. They were exposed but did not even care. There is a lot to dislike about the way that Donald Trump ran his campaign. There is a lot to dislike about his style, the way he treated his opponents along the way, and some of the things that he has said. Elements of his private life came back to haunt him in the process, but even that was not sufficient to keep him from attaining the prize on which he steadfastly fixed his gaze for most of the last year and a half. He refused to surrender to any narrative that the media, his opponent or anyone else attempted to attach to him, and he fought “tooth and nail” to fend off any attack that he deemed unfair. In the past, one simply had to pull out the race card, the misogyny card, the homophobe, or other bigot card to send any Republican candidate scurrying in a corner and begging for forgiveness, then doing everything in his/her power to prove that he really is not a bigot, as the media refused to let up. Trump refused to play that game and remained focused on his message. His platform of border security and stemming the flow of illegal immigration, putting America first, appointing originalist jurors to the Supreme Court, protecting the first and Second Amendment, repealing Obamacare, removing onerous regulations that stifles businesses, and his tough stance on terrorism resonated with the voters, but it is perhaps his fighting spirit that endeared him the most to the people. They appreciated his candidness, his refusal to apologize when he felt he had nothing to apologize for, his lack of political correctness, and the fact that he simply never backed down from a fight.

Many have been longing for a candidate like Mr. Trump, and the people who elected him to power made a decision that they were not going to allow anyone to topple his candidacy. Despite the media and other elites trying to destroy him, the people used their chosen candidate as an example of how to fight. They decided to fight back by ensuring that he attained the ultimate prize. The choice of Donald Trump is also a harsh rebuke to the Democrat Party who for years have ridden the race horse to hold on to the reins of power. They rejected Mr. Obama’s obvious shenanigans when he told crowds that Donald Trump will encourage the KKK, and Mrs. Clinton’s claims that Donald Trump is a misogynist. They did not buy in to the scare tactic that because Trump tweets at three in the morning he will be a danger with the nuclear codes. The people appreciated his message of law and order, and support for the police when Democrats were telling black people that they are being targeted by the police.  At the same time they appreciated his outreach to the black community and minorities, pointing out how much they have suffered under Democrat leadership in the inner cities for decades, and more than a century in some cases. Most of all, people appreciate that Mr. Trump loves America, and that he is unabashedly proud of his country in a time when it is fashionable amongst liberals to hold the country in contempt.

Mr. Trump’s election is a rebuke to the Democrat party for the middle finger that they stuck in the face of the electorate by choosing to run the most corrupt candidate in modern history. They knew the sordid history of their candidate, but with the arrogance that they have displayed for many decades; they decided to put her up anyway. Donald Trump may be a flawed man, lacking many of the personal attributes that we love to see in our leaders, but his fingerprints are not on any of the disasters that we have faced as a country in the last few years. None of the perils facing the country at this time can be pinned on him. His failings are all of a personal nature without the comparable effects as Mrs. Clinton’s actions. Mrs. Clinton’s failings are not only personal but they are, and have been dangerous to the country.

Mr. Trump’s victory is just the first part of what is going to be a long arduous, rough road ahead. Though the media has been exposed, they are not going to go into hiding, and President-Elect Trump will face unprecedented opposition during his tenure. It will be once again OK to criticize the President without being called a racist. He has to make a concerted effort to show that he is the President of all the people, that he will work to heal the divide where possible, and govern with fairness. People have to also tame their expectations and realize that Donald Trump is not the savior, their problems are not going to disappear because he is the President. They too will have work to do by coming together to get things done, drawing on the American spirit of hard work, self-reliance and faith in God. Many of us believe that God rules in the affairs of men. He uses the good and the bad to help bring about his ultimate purpose. We will continue to look to him for guidance, for wisdom and comfort in difficult times. It is he to whom we look whether Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton is the President-Elect.

The Candidacy of Hillary Clinton and the Arrogance of the Democrat Party

The candidacy of Hillary Clinton should serve as the primary exhibit on the colossal arrogance of the Democrat party.  This woman has been in public life and served in some of the highest positions of influence for decades, but has no significant accomplishments to her name. When asked what her major accomplishments are, she spits out a nebulous cliché that she has been “working for women and children her entire life,” without giving any specifics whatsoever on what she has accomplished. Her record in the Senate is less impressive with no significant accomplishment to her name there either. She has left a trail of failure behind her, and everything that she touches turns to dust. She has enriched herself through her connections, not because of any particular skill that she possesses, and has been a controversial figure since she first entered public life. She has been directly linked to some of the biggest scandals in politics over the last four decades, but she continues to skate on by without being held accountable. Mrs. Clinton’s life is the perfect example of how the level of outrage directed at politicians for their misdeeds depends on the party to which they belong. If the politician is a leftist Democrat, it most likely means that no apologies would be necessary, but in the event that they do say sorry; that apology will wipe away the multitude of sins. Just like the statement “black lives matter,” should be changed to “black lives matter…but only when shot by a white policeman,” so too should the saying “speaking truth to power,” should be changed to “speaking truth to Republican or conservative power.

What is most alarming about Mrs. Clinton’s candidacy is the way that she flippantly brushes aside all calls for accountability, and calmly goes about her business with an attitude that suggests she simply cannot be bothered by those who do dare to call her out on her recklessness. Recall for instance how she won her party’s candidacy. We found out that during the primaries the Democrat Party fixed the process so that no other candidate in their party would stand a chance at winning. When Bernie Sanders started making a challenge out of nowhere, the leadership of the Democrat Party conspired even further to prevent him from winning the candidacy. The proof that the leadership was actively working against Sanders was so extensive that the head of the DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schulz who was not the only one on the leadership committee working against Mr. Sanders, resigned (but not in disgrace). After she resigned she got a job working on the Clinton Campaign. That is the height of arrogance! We found out recently that Donna Brazile who was the vice chair of the DNC and took over from Wasserman Schulz, also worked against Sanders providing the Clinton Campaign information on Sanders. The dishonesty does not end with Mr. Sanders. Donna Brazile while working for the CNN provided information to Mrs. Clinton on one of the questions that Mrs. Clinton would get during the debate with Donald Trump. CNN has since gotten rid of her but there has been no outcry, no looping of the story in the Media, and Donna Brazile is still the head of the DNC. The life of a Democrat is blissfully unaccountable. They can do no wrong, and they become more arrogant as time goes on.

Mrs. Clinton’s history of corruption is well known. Prior to all of the revelations in the WikiLeaks documents, everyone knew who this woman’s reputation. The WikiLeaks dump was just more confirmation. Mrs. Clinton’s candidacy demonstrates the contempt that the Democratic Party has for their supporters and the country at large. They know and understand well that they are held to a different standard so they do not even make any effort to give their best. This does not suggest that the Republican Party is pure and has no corruption. The difference is that Republicans and/or Conservatives generally are not allowed to get away with any hint of corruption, and those caught in it generally end up disappearing or being ostracized by their party.

Here are just a few examples of what Democrats have been allowed to do over the years without much political repercussions. These examples clearly show why a candidate like Hillary Clinton can be celebrated in the Democrat Party and the Media, while a candidate like Donald Trump is excoriated.

Champion Democrat Congressman Charlie Rangel “repeatedly used his office to raise money from corporations with business before him, concealed thousands of dollars in rental income and illegally accepted multiple rent control apartments in his district.”  Outrage over his deeds were largely absent and he has never paid a political price.

President Obam never got called out when he put a defense industry lobbyist to be second in command at the Pentagon.

Timothy Geitner was confirmed as Treasury Secretary even after it was revealed that he failed to pay tens of thousands of dollars in taxes.

We could go on and on, the list is extensive but here are just a few more:

Rob Filner a Democrat Mayor resigned in 2013 after too many allegations of sexual harassment, and he ended up pleaded guilty on other charges. We never heard about the war on women in this case and again hardly any mention that he was a Democrat.

NJ Mayor Tony Mack was convicted after being caught in a Federal sting back in 2012. He was just one in a list of Democrat NJ Mayors who have found themselves on the wrong side of the law since 2000.

California Senator Leeland Yee in 2015 was caught in a planned gun smuggling scheme after pretending to be a staunch gun control advocate. Americans were never bombarded day and night with such a significant story of corruption.

Keith Farham was caught in a child pornography sting operation. Think about the difference in the way that Republican Senator Larry Craig was portrayed and how he could not get out of the news cycle for his far less egregious act.

During the corruption scandal and the trial of Rod Blagojavich no one emphasized the fact that he was a Democrat. He was just a “corrupt politician.”

Who can forget the lion of the Senate Ted Kennedy, the Democrat poster boy for being held to a different standard or Marion Barry who somehow managed to successfully turn calls for his resignation after being caught smoking crack with a prostitute into charges of racism. He went to jail and was reelected as Mayor. How about Barney Frank who survived for years as a congressman after running a brothel out of his home-in addition to other improprieties.

Many would remember how the news media constantly talked about the link between Jack Abramoff and the Republican Party when he was convicted on his corruption charges. By the same token, when Bernie Madoff was caught in the biggest scam in American history that involved over fifty billion dollars, to this day; hardly anyone knows of his connections to the Democratic party.

Again, this is simply to demonstrate the double standard that is constantly applied to the Democrat party, to show how they continue to get a pass on their misbehavior yet continue to thrive while portraying themselves as models of virtue. It is in this environment that a candidate like Hillary Clinton is allowed to run for the highest office in the land. It is time to say no to the Democrats with a resounding rejection of their candidate.  Call them out on their hypocrisy. Say no to Hillary Clinton.

 

Hollywood Has Spoken

Here are the words of some in Hollywood making their final appeal to the electorate:

“Je…s F…ing Ch…t, please vote.”

What do we expect from the people who have done the most in contributing to the cultural rot that now plagues our society, where everything is relative, where nothing is right or wrong, and being judgmental is the only sin?

From Miley Cyrus who spread eagles herself during her performances on stage and then cavorts on upstage to protrude her hips so that audience members can grope her private parts, to Madonna who promises bl..w j…bs to anyone who votes for Hillary Clinton, not to forget that sophisticated regular visitor to the white house, Beyonce Knowles (who the first lady said she would be if she could be anyone else) who lets us know that “I’m the sh..t, I’m the sh..t (what you want I’m the sh…t), curvalicious, p…y delicious, or Robert DeNiro who wants to punch Donald Trump in the face, yes they all want us to go out and vote for Hillary Clinton. In a classy display of tolerance, those smart people in the video admonish us all (including the basket of deplorables) to vote for their candidate who has a known history of corruption, failure, whose fingerprints are smack daub on many of the perils currently facing the country, and who has shown that she is willing to do anything for power. Let’s ignore everything that we know to be true about her, and go pull that lever for Mrs. Clinton. The policies that she has told us with her own mouth that she wants to institute do not matter.

The Race Baiting Continues

Have you heard of the Sonderkommandos? Jewish guards who helped murder Jews in the camps. So there were even Jews that were helping the Nazis murder Jews! So blacks who are helping the other side are seriously f…ed in the head. They’re only helping the enemy who will destroy them. Maybe they think ‘if I help them we’ll get along okay; somehow I’ll save my race by working with the murderers,’” These are the words of another Democrat engaging in what they have so skillfully done and mastered over the decades. As usual, their strategy of never discussing the ideas is conspicuously at work. These race baiters refuse to trade their thoughts in the market place of ideas. Their strategy is to stir discontent, to insult and embarrass, work people up emotionally without discussing the issues. Think about what this man is saying.  The only reason that black people would not vote for the Democrats is because, in his words; they “are seriously f…ed in the head.”

This attitude is what conservatives refer to when they invite black people to get off the Democrat party plantation. Leftists believe that blacks owe their political allegiance to the Democrat party, and that anyone who dares to think independently, and stray off the plantation are uppity n…… who are sick in the head. To this gentleman who thinks so little of black people, it matters not that more black men are murdered in the United States than any other group, though they make up only 12 percent of the population. In his mind and those of his ilk, black people must ignore the fact that most of the crime ridden inner cities with failing schools and drug infested neighborhood ahave been run by Democrats for decades. In his mind this is not a good enough reason to make a different political choice. Black people must ignore the fact that unemployment is the highest level it has been for black people in decades. Black people must remember who their lawful masters are, ignore the high rate of teenage pregnancies, homes absent of fathers, and the disproportionate number of abortions in the black community (probably surpassing Margarete Sanger’s wildest dreams) and elect leftist Democrats. We must ignore the cultural rot that is taking place all around us as traditional institutions are attacked and torn down by the left. We must know and get in our place, and do what we were born to do. Vote for Democrat leftist politicians.

The people who engage in this nasty, vicious, dangerous race baiting are shameless and do not care about the consequences of their actions. Their goal is to stay in power at any cost. This statement by Mister Barber is not isolated. It is standard operating procedure for the Democrat Party and leftists in general. Let’s examine some of the things they have said in the past.

Neil Rogers said about Condoleezza Rice: “Is you there ’cause you a high-toned public Negro? Is you their black-haired answer-mammy who be smart? Does they like how you shine their shoes, Condoleezza? Or the way you wash and park the whitey’s cars.

For daring to stray from the leftist plantation Gloria Allred called Colin Powell (before he became a darling of the left) and Condoleezza Rice “Uncle Tom types.”

Donna Brazile: “Republicans bring out Colin Powell and J.C. Watts because they have no program, no policy. They have no love and no joy. They’d rather take pictures with black children than feed them.”

Spike Lee on Clarence Thomas: “A handkerchief-head, chicken-and-biscuit-eating Uncle Tom.”

Senator Dianne Watson: “He’s married to a white woman. He wants to be white. He wants a colorless society. He has no ethnic pride. He doesn’t want to be black.”

They continue to play the race card with the following:

Senator Clair McCaskill: “George Bush let people die on rooftops in New Orleans because they were poor and because they were black.”

Congressman Charlie Rangell: “if you’re black in this country, and you’re poor in this country, it’s not an inconvenience – it’s a death sentence.”  He continued, “If there’s one thing that George Bush has done that we should never forget, it’s that for us and for our children, he has shattered the myth of white supremacy once and for all.” He also said “President Bush Is ‘Our Bull Connor.” Doing what Democrats do best, and inciting division, he continued playing to the Democrat gallery which included then Senator Clinton, articulating; “if you’re black in this country, and you’re poor in this country, it’s not an inconvenience – it’s a death sentence.”

Congressman Barney Frank, also on New Orleans: I believe what we are seeing with regard to New Orleans and the surrounding area is a policy frankly of ethnic cleansing by inaction.”

Here is the great “uniter in Chief” President Obama: “The legacy of slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination in almost every institution of our lives – you know, that casts a long shadow and that’s still part of our DNA that’s passed on. We’re not cured of it. Racism – we are not cured of it.” Of course not Mr. President we live in an imperfect world where bad things sometimes happen, including racism…good grief!

Here’s Jimmy Carter, in his mind this is the only reason people would oppose Obamacare: “I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African-American. … Racism … still exists, and I think it’s bubbled up to the surface because of a belief among many white people, not just in the South but around the country, that African-Americans are not qualified to lead this great country.” So there you have it folks, no proof necessary.

You can find an endless supply of these quotes from the race baiters without looking too hard. They say these things in public with impunity, and without the fear pf repercussions because they are leftists who know they will never be held accountable for the things that they say or do. Is it any wonder that there continues to be so much racial tension in our country, when public figures are constantly stirring the pot of racial divide? On and on they go, decade after decade. After being on the wrong side of every single major piece of civil rights legislation from emancipation to the civil rights acts of 1957, 1960, 1964 (and the voting rights act of 1965), 1968 (every single one! And those in between). After being absent from the fight for equality for over two hundred years, these charlatans now see racism everywhere: in opposition to their policies, in wanting to enforce immigration law, in wanting to decrease tax burdens on all Americans, in wanting to protect the Second Amendment, in being tough on crime, if you say all lives matter. You name it, they cry racism. Every shadow is a gun, and on and on they go.

Black people really need to open their eyes and reconsider their political allegiance.
