Don’t use the condiments

On a local social networking site, a person sounded off about some child drinking from the chocolate syrup bottle at the local BBQ joint. She corrected the child and told management what had happened. The girl behind the counter tossed the syrup. When the boy told his father, he glanced at the woman, waved, and left the establishment.

The thread went on with many weighing in.

Since my thoughts are more verbose than intended, I thought I would put this on my blog instead.

It starts with the parents. It might be more profound than that. Kids are being raised by video games and what used to be Hollywood.

The economy is such that usually, both parents must work. Your children are not raised by ‘Father knows Best, or Leave it to Beaver.’ If they are in a single-parent home, that lack of good behavior goes double. Where do they then learn what is socially acceptable?

I am a writer. Often my characters bump into today’s value system. It has been incumbent upon me to learn where these kids get their values. It was not an exhaustive search. After looking at some of the games they play, examining the amount of unsupervised time they have, and the educational system tolerating bad behavior, I had my answers.

Not long ago, I was in the food court close to some teenagers who were lamenting about their home lives. These were kids wearing designer clothing. They each had a smartphone, some had braces, and they went on about how crappy their parents were. I had to leave.

Speaking with children of different generations, I notice a variance in what they think is acceptable behavior. It is rather shocking.

Today’s 30-somethings that I speak with are clueless. At their age, they should be saving for retirement. Instead, they rent an apartment equivalent to the house they grew up in. They attempt to live as if they were still under their parent’s roof and eat out as if it were free. Many parents enable this behavior by supplementing their income. Their kids live paycheck to paycheck, usually running a deficit by the end of the month. Much like that college loan, they also have credit card debt. Why? They were never taught to manage money.

Instead of attempting to do it for themselves, they complain about how crappy life is and, yes, spend their free time on the computer playing video games. It is no small wonder they cannot afford their student loans.

The gaming industry is $188 Billion. Proponents of video games will argue against what I am telling you. Still, from Sandy Hook to many other mass shooting events, most of those shooters had one thing in common. Can you guess?

One of the officers investigating Sandy Hook told the press that the kid was ‘very proficient’ at killing that many people. It was almost as if he were trained in the military. Huh…

The Parkland Shooter was part of a unique program where his misdeeds (criminal) were kept secret from the School to avoid the school pipeline to prison. The argument for this program is that kids will grow out of it. One trip to the south side of Chicago will change the mind of most. The FBI knew about the shooter’s violent proclivities and were even warned before the shooting. They did nothing. I am still amazed that the activist David Hogg has yet to figure it out.

A teacher in California was beaten by a student because ‘she gave him a failing grade.’ The school system tried to convince the teacher (while she was still in hospital) not to press charges. If memory serves, he broke her jaw, among other things. It would ruin the boy’s life if you pressed charges. I wonder where that ‘child’ is now?

Playing video games releases endorphins which make the player feel good. The hormones and chemicals released are addicting. We humans can be addicted to almost anything, even pain. Does that fact shed some light on why some self-harm?

Those game players reading this will likely chime in, telling me I am wrong. Truth is, I am not mistaken. If you were to honestly log the amount of time you spend playing games, you might be surprised. How does it make you feel to win or take that hill? How do you feel when you lose? When confronted with the truth, how does that make you feel? How does that make you feel if you are a sniper and kill the ‘enemy? No, I am not wrong.

Can you guess why Syrup Boy was drinking the syrup? Sure, it tasted good, but what else? Yes, chocolate is addicting, as is anything that makes you ‘feel’ good. That little feature of most animals is for the survival of the species. I don’t need to spell that out for most of you.

Those proponents of video games immediately tried to spin things differently, but…If you live in a world full of violence, day in and day out, guess what happens to your psychic? Where did this Sandy Hook killer learn to be so proficient? He blew one of the teacher’s heads off and was heard laughing about it after the fact. One wonders why. Was it what he expected?

Were you aware that you could get PTSD from video games? Now we have VR (virtual reality), which will most certainly make the game more real or immersive. Are we even looking into cause and effect? No, it’s the guns doing it.

It is almost as if we should have a consumer protection agency or something looking into cause and effect. What happens if?

There is a real danger among us; syrup boy is just one minor symptom that we are doing something wrong. The prison population is a vast indicator we are doing something very wrong. PFFT

Cause and effect, garbage in, garbage out. Why has nobody put this together? Is it that unpopular? Can we not handle the truth? Are we not paying anyone to look into such things?

Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte, it will all be ok.

I mention the $188 Billion gaming industry because they hire PR firms to spin events like some mass shooting in another direction, away from the obvious. IT’S THE GUNS!!!

Guns are an easy emotional target or trigger word. That is why gaming lobbyists push the gun narrative. They know what it is, but $188 billion pays for PR firms and lobbyists and buys congressmen. It also makes the 2cnd amendment and the NRA the enemies of the people. If they can tie it to a political party, that is just a bonus.

Mental illness is rife. Covid, the lockdowns, and much more play into what is happening. With the lockdowns, the youth have more time to immerse themselves in these games. During the lockdown, the youth were not as socially active as they might have been. Games are an alternate reality. One wonders where reality and games collide. Add drugs into the mix, and that line will get super blurry.

Uvalde; his grandfather was a drug dealer, his mother a junkie, and you know grandma was not innocent or clueless about where the money came from. Pot today has a THC content of up to 95%. In the ’70s, the THC content was about 5%. The effects on the brain are mind-numbing and can cause uncontrollable rage. A toxicology report is still pending on the Uvalde shooter.

Riddle me this, why did the City of Carrollton, Texas, spend tax dollars on creating an E-sports (gaming facility for kids to play video games?) Wouldn’t it be better for kids to play these around their parents? Is this a taxpayer-funded babysitter or surrogate guardian who would also drink from the syrup bottle? Is it for kids who can’t afford a gaming computer?

In truth, I am uncertain what this facility is. On the surface, it sounds like a taxpayer-funded Dave and Busters, only for video games, period. Shouldn’t we try to get kids away from the keyboard and outside playing sports?

I am glad that the kid that shot up the July 4^th celebration was such a coward that he gave up without committing suicide by cop. We need to learn what motivated him and everything else we can. He, like others, will end up being a statistic, but nevertheless, information is valuable.

Where did he learn to be a sniper? He must have known about ballistics to shoot that distance and hit the target. Where did he learn?

Many people claim that School is a pipeline to prison. They blame it on things that are far from the facts. To quote Jack Nicholson, ‘They can’t handle the truth.’ In School, you learn the basics to get by in life and are introduced to social mores.

When I went to School, if your shirt was not tucked in correctly and you were caught, you earned a swat. For the rest of that day, every time you sat, there was this stinging reminder to make sure your shirt was properly tucked in.

Some parents argue against such things. They doth protest. Their argument is that you are teaching kids to hit; I disagree. You are teaching them that we have rules. While you are here, you will follow them. Trust me, parents, kids know how to hit already.

If you have flown, there are more rules than I care to count. Do not joke with the TSA.

In society, there are rules. You and I have those same rules. We get hit in the pocketbook if we speed or drive erratically. If you have one of your tires over the line in a handicapped parking area, the fine is over $600. I am talking about accidentally crossing that little white line with one tire.

One lady had just picked her kid up from school. She was on her phone while speeding through the school zone. The motorcycle cop had his lights on. He tried to get her attention for over a mile before he was forced to go up to her window at a red light and tap on it. I hope her child watched that interaction.

She was terribly distracted by the conversation on the phone. Speeding through a school zone is a hefty ticket. On your phone, while driving in a school zone is yet another. Not seeing the cop for at least a mile…Those mistakes will be quite the spanking.

My point is that there are rules; when do we start teaching them to our kids? There are social mores that are also incumbent upon us to teach. We don’t drink from the bottle. We cannot be our children’s friends. We must be parents first; that is our job. We are not talking about child abuse or beating anyone; we are talking about course corrections. We are talking about parenting. Know what your child is doing. We parents are held accountable for their actions until they reach adulthood. Our job is to raise them so that the criminal justice system does not have to.

Some scream about prison overpopulation. We, the parents, are in part the cause of this. The lack of morality and, yes, the violence are symptoms of not being engaged with your progeny.

Dysfunctional families are endemic to the problem, and that is what congress should be addressing. Breaking the cycle of single-parent homes requires education.

Drugs and the promise of easy money probably eclipse poor parenting, as even the best of parents end up burying a child due to an overdose. Some lose them to gang violence. That, of course, is systemic of drugs and the drug culture.

It starts at home. You are the person they will model until such a time they attempt to emulate some actor or actress. If you teach them correctly and raise them right, you will not need to worry about what the schools are doing to indoctrinate them into this woke world of weirdness. You might also keep them from hanging with the wrong crowd.

Anyone who teaches your kids to hate their country must be in a different vocation. Any person who grooms your young child must be behind bars for pedophilia. The messages children get today are mind-bending. Homeschooling is almost a must.

Your options are clear. Either be of good moral character and lead by example or teach them how to look innocent in a lineup.

Open Letter to Greg Abbot

With the latest power issues in Texas, one would think that we wouldn’t have these issues in a country like this.

“But it is cold.”

And, in the summer it is hot. The last time I mentioned to the city where I live, we had not enough water, trash pickup, and now electricity to add more businesses and apartments I was told to sit down and shut up. (in so many words)

It is all about taxable revenue. When I mentioned that to the city, they told me, “We have more churches than other cities, and they don’t pay taxes! We have to stay competitive.”

We have lost sight of the ball. When we can’t take care of what we have, we don’t need to add more.

Government is over-bloated and is more concerned about ways to keep their jobs and bring in more revenue than taking care of their constituents. Many of those are elected, and trust me, that can be remedied.

One cold snap and millions are without power. This incident was not even ice-related. It was supply and demand.

Maybe some child who knows nothing of economics or how the government works and thinks, might buy that. It is a crap argument. It is all about supply and demand.

In my line of work, we do something called a root cause analysis.

Why did it happen, and what can we do to better prepare for the next time.

We have not invested in the infrastructure or planned worth a damned for there to be power outages to the tune of millions of people because there is not enough supply.

Mr. Abbot, heads need to roll.

February and March are the cold months in Texas; the rest are hot and hotter.

We see California going through this because they have not invested in their infrastructure. I thought we were better than the Golden State.

You owe it to the people of Texas to do this root cause analysis and then tell us how you are going to fix the problem.

Platitudes, and turn off your heat or air and don’t run anything that uses electricity is not the answer. Controlled power outages are not the answer.

ERCOT needs to be held to account for this.

I have lived in Texas since 1962. This cold snap is not our first, and it will not be our last. Next Summer will not be our first days over 100.

If you want to attract more revenue in the form of a tax base, prove to the tax base that you have that you are worthy of it.

Pelosi wants a 911 commission to distract the country from its bumbling of issues. Maybe we should have a 911 commission to see how this happened. My guess is that you all already know, and knew it was a possibility. If that is the case, that makes you all negligent.

Media Bias

Today in the new, the President’s legal team wrapped up their case. By all accounts, they should move to acquit and get back to the business of the people.

What we are not hearing about in the media is a possible pandemic. To date, 131 people have died from the coronavirus. What they have not reported on is the coronavirus is and has been a problem in dogs, and the Chinese eat dogs.

Viruses mutate, so it is no surprise that ingesting dogs might have something to do with how it began.

If it indeed has mutated to now be transmitted human to human, the number of 131 deaths of 1-28-2020 will be higher by 1-29-2020. Depending upon the veracity of the disease, the amount will increase logarithmically.

Why the US is still accepting flights from China is questionable, but here is the kicker, as we are a very mobile society, the virus could quickly become a worldwide pandemic in no time.

Of course, the mainstream media is focused on calling Trump supporters Credulous Rubes.

Since CNN pays to have all airports only have CNN on its televisions, one might think that they would fulfill the role of ‘actual news’ instead of meddling in the upcoming elections.

Another story that is very important is the Chinese spy ring that we have captured in the US. No, you didn’t hear about it because it does not fit the hate trump narrative. From a Harvard professor to students sneaking technology and biochemical research out of the country to China, should have made the news. It didn’t.’ But we know that John Bolton is writing a book and someone alleged that he leaked something to the New York Times.

You didn’t hear that the Democratic Party is falling apart, and they don’t have a good strategy nor a qualified candidate. You don’t know that Joe Biden should not be running nor even driving, because of his mental state, they don’t like Warren and they certainly know that the Socialist Bernie Sanders cannot beat Trump, so they are pushing Bloomberg to the top using lots of money to purchase air time to attack Trump on made-up numbers and so forth.

You didn’t hear any of that because they are too busy on their campaign to destroy Trump by death with a thousand cuts. By attacking his ‘Credulous Rubes or the Deplorable’s, which are too stupid to know that they should not be trusted with the vote. Those with money and power hope to keep 65 million of us silent, while they go after Trump on made-up facts.

You might not have heard that once again, the yapping heads on CNN think it would be improper for Trump to give the State of the Union Address as then the American people would hear his voice. This whole Impeachment thing has been about destroying his credibility and swaying people in the electorate who think Socialism is a good thing.

Yes, the media is the enemy of the republic and is part of the left-wing crazies who ilk, like them, has destroyed country after country, while raping their people, resources, and wealth. In short, these people are not your friends, on your side or have your back etc. They are out for what they can get from you while promising you the world.

There are no free lunches and no free anything in this world. Someone paid for it.

It is time we demand Term Limits be on the ballot for all officials.

It is time we create an accountability law for the media. If they profess to be a journalist, they must damned well act like it.

Stalin said the sharpest tool in his weaponry was the written word. With CNN and social media, we have no idea if the trolls from other countries or the MSM is a more significant threat to our democracy.

If Paul ran for office, would we vote for him? @realdonaldtrump

Political discourse in this country, as I suspect in many others, is rife with opinions, hate, and discontent. Some with a passing understanding of the facts speak out as those who are heavily vested in the process. Many, like Armchair quarterbacks in our lazy boys we scream at the TV or our friends on social media.

The disconnect is that depending on what part of the country you are in influences your opinions.

East and west coast alike are more liberal and have a definite liberal bias in the news, radio programs, and newspapers and of course the mega elite who live in the Ivory towers of Hollywood. We hold them up there; they are Gods don’t you know? Because they are either genetically gifted with looks, or symmetry and have learned to emote when they talk, we believe them to be as their characters on our favorite movie or TV show. They are so wise in that they must certainly know of what they speak!

download (3) — I am certain that she knows about all the issues… not!

Politicians wise to the ways of the world, hob knob with these Gods as they want to be accepted, so they will talk nicely about them. Comedians also take on the liberal biased as they too are influenced by some politicians who wield power and might; with their pen and phone.

Politicians will spend vast fortunes of their own money to get the vote of the people as once there; it can be a lifetime job where suddenly the rules and laws that the little people must deal with, do not apply to them.

hillary angry 4 — It does make a difference ….

Evangelicals are looking for Jesus to run for office. They might dispute that, but they are. The problem is, even if Jesus came back and ran, I doubt few would actually vote for him because he was the son of a Carpenter, and his mother became pregnant before she was legally married.

Twenty-Six Million evangelicals stayed home in 2012 because the idea of a Mormon in the White House was unfathomable. How did that work out for you?

51COkV-g4NL._SX332_BO1,204,203,200_ — Wonder how many of these he sold?

Today we have “conservatives talk show host.” bashing Trump because of things that he did as a businessman. Some of their allegations are true, most are out of context or flat out falsehoods concocted by those that study and practice political science and social engineering.

A perfect example of that was the nude photo of Trump’s wife on the cover GQ magazine sent to all of the voters in Utah, telling them that this was their “first lady.” “Smarmy attacks like this “not to pick on the Mormons, will work because they will vote their conscience. They did, and the sycophantic lawyer won by a landslide! They were played like a Steinway! In her defense, she was a model back then and a damned fine one! She speaks five different languages and is a successful business person in her own right!

Now we are being played. We have Evangelical leaders listening to other leaders talking about things in Trump’s past that may or may not be true. They are telling their followers to vote their conscience after dissing Trump.

The last thing I read said that no matter who won, the world will still keep spinning, the country will still go on, not to worry, just vote for someone you will not feel badly about casting your vote for.

If I ever doubted that the devil was real, this is where I would have clear evidence that he is real and active.

If you vote for anyone other than Trump, you are voting for Hillary. Independents are there to funnel votes from Trump. Hillary is such a corrupt, candidate that she has to pander to those who are only looking out for what is in it for them. What is my vote worth to you?

She has peaked out, so her strategy must be to take votes away from Trump, anyway that she can.

garyjohnson-600x400 — Do you really think this guy has a chance in hell?

Established politicians know if Trump is elected that their gravy train of $600 hammers sold by their brother-in-laws is over. They would rather support the devil for their fortunes on earth than do what is right for the country!

Is Trump the perfect candidate?

“No.”

Is Hillary a better candidate? Only for the State Pen. She is, in fact, the first person to run for the office of president that could not pass a standard background check.

If Paul came and ran, would you vote for him knowing his baggage?

Wise up and do the right thing!

#RNC Recap @realdonaldtrump

During the RNC I expected what we saw. Those that were for America, and those who were there for themselves.

The candidates that supported Trump are for the party, country and let’s face it, you!

Those with bruised egos were in it for themselves, to begin with.

Trump gave Ted a chance to redeem himself, set him up for a possible run later, (he is young) and he blew it. There will be a few that agree with him, but there are a number of folks who are voting for Hillary in spite of the fact that she should be in jail!

“Vote your conscience???” During the debate, Hillary was the person to beat no matter the cost, now it is, “it ain’t me, I don’t care, let Hillary win..????” Ted, I think you let a lot of folks down! Your excuse was so damned lame it was pathetic!

You signed a pledge Ted, a man’s word is his bond!

With this much at stake Ted, you come in front of 50 million people and basically tell them that you are picking up your marbles and leaving!

Politics is a rough and tumble game sport. If your skin is that thin, I suggest you go be a professor somewhere, where you will have an audience that has to listen to your whiny rhetoric. You sent a naked picture of his wife to all of the voters in Utah! I think if anyone had a right to a grudge, it was Trump!

Politics is a big boy game, stay out of the deep end!

This race is a binary race. Vote for Trump or Hillary, any other vote is for Hillary and that includes sitting at home. The race is inherently rigged for the democrats to begin with. With activist judges allowing the dead to vote, multiple times, well you get the point.

Some are calling for the libertarian candidate who will siphon more votes from the evangelicals who are drinking the Koolaid of the liberal media. Hillary is spending over a Billion Dollars in smear tactics to besmirch Trump. She is targeting the evangelicals much like Ted did in Utah. It is not her game to gain more voters but to take them from Trump, much like it was Cruze, Kasich, and others tried to steal the primary from Trump with lawyer tactics and last minute rule changes.

Evangelicals will not vote for her so, making Trump look like Hitler or Satan or pick your villain is her strategy. Fear mongering will most certainly come into play as few follow this stuff, and many get their news from comedy central or MSNBC…same thing!

Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, Lawrence O'Donnell — MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow, left, Lawrence O’Donnell, center, and Chris Matthews take part in a panel discussion at the NBC Universal summer press tour, Tuesday, Aug. 2, 2011, in Beverly Hills, Calif. (AP Photo/Chris Pizzello)

In 2012 Evangelicals stayed home, and Romney lost. 26 million of them could not stomach a Mormon in the White House, so they stayed home. Hillary and her minions will do their best to target them again.

It is rather interesting that the Evangelicals who preach “judge not” could not bring themselves to vote for a Mormon. Do you actually look at that Bible or do you just simply dress nicely on Sunday and let everyone see how pretty your are?

I am glad that Jesus is not as judgmental as some of his followers, we might have a problem.

The propaganda is flying all over social media with “friends looking surprised by what they are reading.” They are surprised because they are drinking the Koolaid! It is unsubstantiated facts and outright lies, and people read and say things like “WOW, JUST WOW!” There is your first clue lassie; it is probably all make believe!

John and Ted were a disappointment, but at least they are not the candidate, Bush was never a contender; it just took him a little longer to figure it out, maybe his battery was low.

The primary is for vetting the candidates, the people have spoken. The General should be lively as we run that last lap of this race. It should be interesting to see how the Hillary camp spins her lies and how much more this administration will do to protect her!

My Two Cents

Is #Melania #Trump a Liar? @realdonaldtrump #RNCRockAnthems

Is Melania Trump a liar?

It would seem on the surface that Melania Plagiarized 50 words of her 1400 word speech.

The liberal-leaning press is having a heyday with this, the idea being to smear Trump and to put him on defense thus controlling the narrative. If Hillary, or her staff, can do anything to take some of the wind out of the sails of the Republican National Convention, they will do it.

Most of the press is liberal leaning, for reasons only they know.

Did Melania lie?

She said she wrote most of the speech with little help as possible.

I would tend to believe that she did indeed write a speech.

I would also tend to think that once she wrote it, the speechwriters took it, and re-wrote it. English is not her first language and even though she is fluent in five different languages, writing a speech that will resonate with the American public is best left to those that do it for a living.

The fifty words she is accused of plagiarizing out of the 1400 word speech are relatively common sentiments or phrases said by different people over the years, including the writers of “my little pony.”

Here is the error.

It is easy to check online if what you are claiming as yours was plagiarized from somewhere else. As a writer, I often check what I write against it, just to make certain that I did not write something that I may have heard somewhere in the past. The Trump Campaign should have done that!

In short, she is not running as an elected anything. There are so many more plusses with her and her husband than the “other person who’s name I will not mention,” That I am willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Some of my friends will find this as fodder for many heated posts, and reasons why a corrupt, morally bankrupt, self-serving psychopath should be elected Vs Trump… “Vote how you like, right now it is still a free country…..”

Trump is not perfect, so I cannot vote for him! @realdonaldtrump

Many on the extreme right saw Cruz as the model of their idea of the perfect candidate.

He said all the right things to woo the evangelicals and of course hid his dirty work under the covers so the “perfect” voters could feel good about casting their vote for a man that held their ideals and worshiped the same Jesus that they worship.

This person won Iowa by cheating and pulling Lawyer tricks.

This person took delegates that should have belonged to Trump again through Lawyer tricks, and when accosted by Trump his response was, “all is fair in love and politics” paraphrasing.

To garner his win in Utah “he” sent out a nude photo of Trump’s wife advertising to the UBER right wing Mormon class, that this was going to be their new first lady!

Twenty-Six million evangelicals stayed home in 2012 because they could not stomach a Mormon in the White House. We got Obama for a second term. How did that work out for you?

Here we are in 2016.

A self-made business man who has had ample opportunity to screw up his life, has managed to not only not screw it up but raise a family that manages to deal with wealth and not be totally rotten to the core.

This is a man that does not drink, smoke or do drugs yet he could easily afford the best, like many celebrities, athletes, etc. and he does not. His vice is a milkshake at the ballgame with friends.

yankees-v-oakland-s — If I remember correctly Oreilly bought them!

I see many evangelical posts on social media saying that they cannot vote for Trump. Alas, he is not perfect!

“No Christian should bow their knee to Trump; his past is questionable.”

Trump is not running for a theological leader of anyone. Trump is running because he wants to give back to a country that has been good to him.

Self-funded the primary, handily beat 16 qualified candidates and now he has to survive $1.5 Billion dollars of negative ads, social engineering and right wing nut jobs who think that the next president should be Jesus himself!

Jesus is not going to run to save you from yourself! He gave you a brain and reasoning skills and expects you to use them!

This next election is so important you have no idea.

The progressive agenda will utterly destroy what is left of this country after this last 8 years.

bill_hillary_rect-460x307 — He never inhaled or learned what the meaning of “is is…”

We will be $20T in debt because of this administration and have many more problems than answers for the next president to deal with.

I am not an apologist for Trump.

I know who he is. He is not perfect Folks, we could do one hell of a lot worse than him. If you stay home, you are voting for Hillary. If you are willingly voting for her, you need to stop drinking the kool-aid.

Trump_makes_friends — If you can’t chuckle at this your not trying!

Isn’t it a good thing that God does not judge you as harshly as you judge Trump?

Vote to “Make America Great Again!” It’s the right thing to do!

United we stand @realdonaldtrump @TheWellsReport #NeverHillary

Engaging in protracted debates on social media, I am just amazed at how successful the social engineers are.

Bottom line

You are either going to vote for HRC, or you are voting for Trump. It is a binary choice at this time and contrary to the Trump naysayers, I don’t believe that it is a selection of the lesser evils.

Social engineers will spin the lie to manipulate the masses. They do this with your emotions.

I could get used to seeing her on TV “Class Act!”

Case in point.

The day before Utah was to vote in the primary, Cruz or his Superpack sent out a nude photo of Trump’s wife who at that time was a model.

“Here is your first lady.” The ad said. Mormons had to reject that one and of course, Cruz, who swept in as Jesus incarnate, Got their votes. That is how elections are won and lost friends.

The Hillary camp will use those tactics against any evangelical hoping to keep them home again as they did in 2012. 26 million stayed home giving the election to the Democrats.

*Well, lady, this is what you are voting for if you don’t vote.*

“I can’t in good conscious vote for that ungodly man!” one posted.

“So, you are for late term abortions, political correctness, more jobs going overseas, blacks going into even more poverty, more crime from across the border, tens of thousands of unvetted Syrian refugees and the list goes on!” Is that really what you want! Are you going to fall for it again?

“Hillary wants open borders and bridges!”

He gave her another $6 million for open borders!

The lack of jobs in this country does not bother you even just a little bit?

The #nevertrump movement must be a creation of the Democrats and they have coopted many Republicans by feeding them lies or half truths.

Tea-Party-Patriots-Citizens-Fund-Endorsement-Ted-Cruz-2.jpg — Our guy lost folks, best get on the TrumpTrain.

I also found it interesting that those in the Tea Party movement would use vitriolic vernacular against those of us who liked Cruz and now feel like we must support Trump to stop Hillary.

These folks are calling anyone that votes for Trump, a traitor!

Folks, you must vote for Trump to stop Hillary, end of story.

All of the things that you are against, Hillary is for, and then some.

While Trump thinks that Planned Parenthood helps women but would not fund it for abortions, Hillary thinks that late term abortions are ok. As long as it is not breathing it is ok to kill it. That I find repugnant, and if you don’t vote for Trump, then you must think it is ok too.

There is a dichotomy between them on the important issues.

Radio talk show host who say Never Trump are either closet Democrats or incredibly stupid.

RedState Editor-in-Chief Erick Erickson is a #neverTrump guy.

Anyone who says “Never Trump” is for the liberal agenda or woefully ignorant of the facts.

I would prefer Bernie Sanders over Hillary, and that is saying something!

Over the next few months, the candidates will spend anywhere from 1 to 1.5 Billion dollars each to either talk about the issues or tell you how bad and low down their opponents are.

$1.500,000,000.00 That money would feed lots of people. Multiply that by two for the two candidates and you have $3 Billion in ads and other media just to feed you lies and innuendos so you think that each of them are the spawn of the devil. Obama called it part of the process and “Sometimes the process gets messy!” Obama

We are in for several months and thousands of ads targeted in swing states of “messy!”

At the end of the day, we must vote Trump if you want to stop Hillary and save this country from ruin.

Anyone that says NeverTrump needs to be informed and if they still say that, then they are for Hillary Clinton.

The liberal media will sing her praises and report on the issues with a heavy slant in her favor and of course, anything that you hear or read you had best fact check!

After the political discourse of the GOP have you noticed that most of them are talking again? They said what they needed to say to manipulate the voters. I still think it will be a Trump / Cruz ticket after they bury the hatchet. Lyin Ted turned into a “hell of a smart competitor” just hours after he dropped out. Little Marco is a smart guy, and the list goes on.

The voters of this country have spoken, and now we must pick up the torch and run with it.

I still like HairForceOne! That is my favorite line out of the GOP Primary!

Garbage in = Garbage out! @realdonaldtrump

Recently I had a conversation with a “friend” who was voting for Sanders.

Listening to their pros of the man, I listened without interruption.

This person is a college graduate “Millennial”, so I was not surprised when they said they supported Bernie.

“What is wrong with Trump?” I asked.

“Well, he is a fascist!” I could never vote for a fascist!

“ Tell me what exactly is a fascist?” I said.

“Well, I would have to look it up?” She said while reaching for her smartphone.

“I will save you to data, a fascist a dictator that believes not in democracy but total power of the masses.”

“Still think Trump is that?” “Well, I guess not.” she said, “but Bernie is great!”

“Tell me, what is socialism?”

“I would have to look it up?”

Now thinking that this person had a legitimate lawsuit for her college in that they must not have taught them anything, I began to explain what socialism was.

“Well, he is only for the good parts of it, not all those bad parts of it!”

Wringing my hands trying to keep from slapping this person, “there are no good parts, there are only bad!” When you run out of the other guys money the whole system falls apart into anarchy!”

Churchill-Socialism-650 — My cousin… Shameless Plug…maybe…

“Tump is a capitalist and a populist. Do you know what either of those are?”

She was beginning to listen as I explained what they each were and why that is a good thing.

Since Bernie cannot win unless Hillary ends up with a free supply of orange pantsuits, I think I do not have too much to worry about there, however; I also found it fascinating that she did not like her either.

In other conversations with other friends, I discovered that their news was coming from late night comedians and yes, John Stewart was one of them that probably helped get the current POTUS elected.

That thing down there on the lower right coner…yes that…Comedy Central is not the damned news!

People are burned out with the 24-hour news cycle and are tired of the rhetoric. The negative infighting in the GOP must stop!

If you want the news, don’t watch this. This is so far left and opinionated that I would have to check the sky if they said it was blue.

Many have tuned out, but they are confident that Hillary is Crooked. They think fondly of Bill, however, and I think that they are thinking that he will secretly be running things again, and he might be. Maybe Monica can re-apply for a job there.

Bill might be forced to run the country as his wife may have a number across her back and either an orange or striped uniform.

“Can she pardon herself?”

Trump needs to appeal to the female voter, and the way to do that is simple. Kiss some babies, in this case, start with his newest grandchild.

The “Your Fired Guy” Needs some more humanizing moments in front of the camera.

There is a reason that politicians “shake hands and kiss babies.”

Negative ads work for those that are not engaged in the process and believe that someone will truly step on baby chickens and create death panels and do all sorts of mean, nasty things.

If you ran this ad in the right demographic and put a politicians face to it, a number of voters would believe it!

Finding those demographics are now a scientific category in the political science area.

“Who can we tell what lies to that will see the ads and believe them?”

Who are they and what do they watch on TV?

Target those shows, pepper them with poison and let the useful idiots of the world do their bidding.

They may not have a clue what socialism is but if you tell them it is a good thing they will buy it.

The best ads are ads that are funny, catchy or appeal to emotions and not logic.

A simple person narrating an ad is not near as effective as an ad that will make you laugh or make you get pissed.

Ok, this is a funny ad. It makes the point as well as captures more than two seconds of your attention.

Got your attention and made you chuckle.

I wanted to pontificate quickly on the latest GOP developments.

Since there is no way for Cruz or Kasich to make it mathematically, they need to drop out as they have each called for the other candidates to do.

Kasich is taking mega dollars from unsavory donors, why?

Cruz too is showing his true colors with his Smarmy lawyer tactics.

That leaves Trump.

Having read his books and followed his family, I tend to believe that he would be the Pit Bull we need in the white house.

He just needs some hair and you have it!

For Cruz and Kasich, not to mention the entire GOP establishment to torpedo their front runner shows their true intentions. Someone is investing millions of dollars towards their campaigns, and my guess is it is because they know that they cannot control Trump, but either of these two would gladly attach strings on their feet and hands and dance the dance of the puppet masters to ride around in Air Force One!

I recently saw Obama dancing with his wife with Beyonce singing just for them. Spending billions of taxpayer money on private vacations is a true dream for some as they can now fulfill their narcissistic fantasy while loving that person in the mirror!

Cruz’s latest bit of garbage is to espouse his ability to fortune tell.

According to Cruz, if Trump gets in, Hillary wins.

hqdefault — “Look at that Face!” Truthfully, are Americans that stupid to vote for this!?

This is the same blowhard that has been spewing his brand of hatred for the last several months saying he is the only one that can beat Trump.

“Cruze, buddy…you lost…!” Save what little dignity you have left and lead by example!

I know and have known many lawyers in my day, most of them deserve the unkind remarks that they get. I will leave it at “Smarmy.”

When a lawyer will look you in the eyes and tell you that it is easier for him to get you off, if you are indeed guilty, that my friends is a subhuman life form. That is where we are today.

The rich power brokers while keeping the middle class under foot promising folks the rich folks money in return for their votes, is tantamount to bribery not to mention that money comes from the middle class, not the rich people that they pointed to.

lobbying-nobody-tells-me-what-do — “I do whatever I want to, when they let me.”

California is such a state that will have little middle class left as they have taxed them out of existence forcing them to flee to other states.

The very wealthy will be served by the very poor, and that mentality is spreading like cancer.

If the GOP cannot see that they need to be working on unifying their base then we have one of two things. Either they are incredibly stupid, or are no different than the progressive political class that currently has us $20T in debt and counting.
