From a friend in the UK:
19 Feb 2020 From a friend in the UK: “Ambitious leftist politicians, here and there, are clearly prepared to seize political power by any means! By contrast, honorable politicians seek opportunities to serve their country, their fellow citizens, and future generations. Leftists simply lust after personal power and money, nothing else! Thus, used-car salesmen and […]
The real “class-war”
18 Feb 2020 “The real ‘class-war’ is between the snobbish, self-declared, elite ‘ruling class,’ who lust after permanent and unlimited power for themselves (at the expense of our rights as citizens), and the rest of us who just want to put food on our tables, be reasonably secure in our own homes, and survive wars […]
I do not wonder that the sordid hypocrisy of elitist/leftist politicians
12 Feb 2020 “I do not wonder that the sordid hypocrisy of elitist/leftist politicians, who enjoy continuous protection provided by stone-faced men bearing ‘weapons of war,’ yet so pseudo-sanctimoniously insist that ‘ordinary citizens’ should never be allowed to keep nor bear arms of any kind, is never questioned by the media. I do wonder why […]
He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything.
11 Feb 2020 “He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career!” George Bernard Shaw Democrats’ fawning adoration of the UK’s ecumenical gun ban, combined with their deep-seated hatred of guns that they believe are bewitched talismans, capable of ruthlessly appropriating personalities of their human handlers, irreversibly converting […]

Watch These Experts!
4 Feb 2020 Watch These Experts! During the BHO Administration, we all witnessed the bungling, abortive rollout of healthcare.gov and Obamacare!

No evil dooms us hopelessly…
4 Feb 2020 “No evil dooms us hopelessly, except the evil we love, desire to continue in, and make no effort to escape from.” Daniel Deronda In the former French colony of Upper Volta (since 1960, “Burkina Faso”), in the Sahel region of west Africa, the government has reluctantly decided to arm and train citizen […]
“Due process” is a “Notice Concept.”
3 Feb 2020 “‘Due process’ is a ‘Notice Concept.’ When the law cannot clearly tell me what I need to do in order to be legal, I’m denied due process. When those tasked with interpreting and enforcing a law suffer from the same dilemma as those who wrote it, that is, they can’t explain what […]
