INDIVIDUAL OFFICIAL MISCONDUCT Week of 2017/03/13
It is quite obvious, to me at least, that those of the C/S persuasion, with either a
'D' or 'R' on their voter registrations have no intention of sitting back and letting the newly
installed President and his staff go about the business of 'governing'. It seems like several
times a day someone of that number breaks out with a statement blasting PRESDT or his new staff
for some, usually made up, supposed wrongdoing.
Unfortunately, we also have a 'major media' the staffs of which are completely on
board and seem unable to find the truth go right along and give those railing full coverage and
accepted as absolute fact. One wonders just where all the 'honest' and 'investigative'
reporter types have gone. It is my opinion that those died off decades ago to be replaced by
younger 'journalism school' graduates who have either been brainwashed in said academic
locations, or were already imbedded in that arena before entry.
If in the former category, there can be some latitude understood, since the 'educators
' have the upper hand and can easily intimidate their students. If you don't go along, you
might not be allowed to pass a course, or even continue in the school. My experience was in
the School of Engineering studying Aeronautics. The primary professor in those courses
believed in 'grading on the curve', where a certain percentage would automatically fail. In
most of the classes under him, there were only two students, which meant the even if both
tested above 90%, one would fail. Being younger by several years, that usually meant me.
It never ceases to offend me with the language most often used by those raising
accusations against those they hate. My term for them is 'mean mouthed' and it can be applied
to some in the newly installed majority party as well as most in the opposition party. The
latter seem to feel that it is their 'natural right' to be in the majority and thus able to
'rule' as was stated eight years ago when the PRESBO administration was taking over. In the
USA the proper term is 'govern' but it seems that it was their intent to 'rule' as did the
dictators of the last century and the ruling monarchs of those earlier.
In those cases the "law" was whatever the ruler said it was, thus the term "the King
can do no wrong" because whatever the ruler said the law was, it was. We all need to remember
that the inspired, in my opinion, by GOD founders prepared a Constitution to be the "rule of
law" for the USA and, despite some ill conceived amendments, it has served us well in the 240
years since, when fully followed.
Unfortunately, there have been far too many nominated to federal judgeships, at all
levels of courts, who in their self important feelings seem to feel that their bias and belief
is more proper than following the law as written. Congressional leadership must bear some
responsibility for their 'dereliction of duty' in failing to bring impeachment charges against
even the most flagrant of such cases. One fairly recent one was Ms. Justice Ginsberg of the
Supreme Court who was recorded as stating in a speech a few years ago that she 'uses
international law' in reaching decisions.
Finally, a personal note. This effort completes nine years since the publisher of the
Banner Newspaper, in Adair OK, asked if I would consider writing a weekly column. My reply was
"I will try anything once and if it doesn't suit me will end". My effort has been to be
informative, factual when available, and sometimes amusing. Thank those who have rendered
support by compliments and those who considered me worthy of publishing. I hope to continue at
least one more year and, GOD willing, maybe more. Internet difficulties and my fingers aging
have made the effort more difficult, but hopefully the old computer will continue to work.
Thank you all again.
