POLITICAL POOR CONDUCT Week of 2018/02/05
As this is written, the first 'State of the Union' speech by PRESDT is about 36
hours from taking place and already petulant members of Congress most, if not all,
with a 'D' behind their name, have publicly stated that they will "boycott" the joint
meeting on Tuesday, January 30, 2018. What a bunch of sore losers!! It appears to
me that they are so used to being in sole charge that it is just not possible for them to
not be able to push others around and act as they please. I don't know about their
colleagues but my friends and I will hold them in contempt for such conduct.
It is my hope that PRESDT will 'make it short and blunt' and proclaim that the
'Union is in great shape and getting better'. That would, of course, offend the major
media as it would give them much less to complain about. My memory of these in
previous years is that the sitting President would drone on and on about his
accomplishments, for the most part. However, it was a refreshing change to have
PRESBO be called a "Liar" at least once for a flagrant falsehood. Unfortunately the
proclaimant was soundly ridiculed for some time after by an "in the tank" major media.
Certainly PRESDT has no shortage of accomplishments to mention in a
favorable way. In my memory of these occasions there have been none that can
honestly make claim to so many improvements in the situation, at least as far as the
citizens and Nation are concerned. In fact, from the reception he seems to have
received in Switzerland recently it would appear that officials from around the World
feel better about the future. Along that line it has been proven, unfortunately all too
seldom, that the take charge and do things attitude he expounds will garner respect
from most, if not all, the other World leaders.
In my memory it remains clear about the discovery after V-E Day that the Nazi
military had orders to the effect that if they experienced ANY resistance on entering
Poland they were to turn around and return into Germany. Perhaps Hitler was
astounded when the British and French promptly declared war in September of
1939 to start World War II. His attack to invade was initiated just two days after
British PM Chamberlain declared on return from Berlin "We have achieved peace in
our time". So much for being able to trust ANY person in total dictatorship position.
Back to the "Swamp". It seems to me that PRESDT, Pro-tem McConnell, and
Speaker Ryan are faced with the same adversaries in minority leaders Schumer, D-
NY, and Pelosi, D-CA. Their promises seem to be totally unbelievable and should
not be accepted. Fortunately for we poor, overtaxed, and under served citizens it
seems to me that Trump is equal to the task, with plenty of business experience
dealing with such individuals in foreign nations.
So far, I am encouraged and pleased with how much Trump has managed to
accomplish in just one year in spite of opposition from individuals in both parties!! It
would please me to see the RNC meet and at least vote on declaring to be RINOs
those who are in open opposition to the President and his goals. Hopefully those
who are up for re-election this year will be subject to retirement in November, or
even earlier if there happens to be a primary for any of them.
Along that line, some are already talking like the nomination of Cong. Jim
Bridenstine, R-OK1, to head NASA may not garner enough Senate votes because
of two empty seats held by Republicans, due to illness, and Sen. Marco Rubio
steadfastly refusing to even consider a vote for him. It appears that his objection is
because Jim supported Sen.Ted Cruse in the primary. Well, duh, Cruse is from
Texas, much more like and physically closer to Oklahoma than is Florida. In
addition, Cruse has an attitude much closer to ours than does Rubio. In fact he was
my original choice, but am pleased with probably the only one of the 17 that could
have won over HRC and her blindly supporting major media.
In any event we shall soon see just how far the 'sore losers' are willing to go to
express their outrage at having lost the election. To them I/we say: "Get over it, you
lost". If they are so willing to bash the Nation and disrespect the flag, then it seems to
me that they should just go to one of those C/S nations and see how they like living
there. I've seen none of those claiming they would do that if Trump won carry out
on their promise to us. On the other hand, none was expected, they were just
blowing off steam.
