These are personal opinions based on my love of reading and love of country. When I was still in high school, I read a recent novel about the destruction of America caused by socialism, corruption of power and the economic destruction. The novel? “Atlas Shrugged” I read another novel about the abuse of power by the government. The novel? “1984”. It is obvious that the left and the DC UniParty (Establishment GOP and DNC) have taken “1984” as an instruction manual, and the result is “Atlas Shrugged”. What triggered this epiphany in my mind was reading about the relocation of...

So, what is meant by the modern term referred to as 'POLITICAL CORRECTNESS'? The definition is found in 4 telegrams at the Truman Library and Museum in Independence, Missouri. The following are copies of four telegrams between President Harry Truman and General Douglas MacArthur on the day before the actual signing of the WWII Surrender Agreement in September 1945. The contents of those four telegrams below are exactly as received at the end of the war - not a word has been added, edited or deleted! (1) Tokyo, Japan 0800-September 1,1945 To: President Harry S Truman From: General D A...

This is my own position, and if it is in the wrong venue, just change it, but I really don’t need to be bitch-slapped by the self-annointed keepers of Freeper Purity! (And you guys know who you are!) Okay, my Mom passed away about three years ago. My sister, who was living with her, is getting ready to retire and move away. I suggested to her that she make sure that Mom’s name has been removed from the voter registration rolls. I believe that it is incumbent on all of us who have lost beloved family members, to insure that...

What the heck is Tucker smoking? He claimed that “Trump” fired McCabe? Jeff Sessions fired McCabe on the recommendation of the FBI IG.

Tucker just let that Congresscritter get away with claiming that President Trump rescinded the DACA Program. That is an outright lie.

Tucker Carlson had two liberals on who between the two of them, failed to answer a single direct question!

Mayor of San Francisco and major sanctuary city proponent died "suddenly" in hospital, surrounded by family.

This evening, I had to stop at the Rite Aid Pharmacy in Milford, NH. I parked next to a car, proudly proclaiming “No Hate in My State”. As I got out of my truck, the owner of the vehicle, a twenty-something female came striding out, with her nose in the air and an aire of superiority and contempt. Actually, she had a look of latent hate all over her face. I realized that the main source of hate in this country is sourced from the left. For the first time in their entitled lives, these snowflakes have had the word...

We have gotten two calls from the RNC warning about Hitlery and extolling the virtues of Donald Trump and pleading for donations. When we told them that we were disgusted with the RNC, they told us that the only way to donate to Trump was through them. We hung up, both times.

A widely-distributed govvenment email announced today that there would be a discussion session held devoted to the plight of the transgendered service personnel, IN THE BASE CHAPEL!

A couple of days ago, I commented on Facebook about how the Nazi persecution of the Jews and other undesirables in Germany was being denied now. How Ike ordered that as many photos as possible be taken because eventually, the incident would be denied. Now, the Muslims are denying that it happened and are trying to continue the Nazi's work on Jews in the Middle East. I commented that in the end, all we needed to know about Muslims was how to killed them as efficiently as possible. I hate to be that way, but I do not see any...

I just got an email from DFAS advising me that my retirement pay from the US Army would not be delayed due to the shutdown as the source of the funds is not from the CRA.

Today, Tax Day, I sent this email to my rep: Mr. Hodes, On this Tax Day, April 15th in the Year of Our Lord, 2010, I want to express my enthusiasm for the forthcoming midterm elections where I will enthusiastically vote for your permanent retirement from government "service". You have successfully avoided representing my interests for the past two years, mindlessly parroting the orders of Ms Pelosi, voting to destroy the health system and the economy and undermining the safety of this Blessed Nation. I hope you shuffle off into the dustbin of history with your head hung in shame...

Okay, all of you forum propriety Nazis, you will all complain that this isn't in the proper forum and today, I really don't give a hang!Today is Scout Sunday, celebrated throughout the land, except, probably, in those churches that detest the Boy Scouts of America for their stand on Youth Protection and Homosexuality.Tomorrow is the 100th Anniversary of the Boy Scouts! I was a Scout on the 50th Anniversary and have the privilege of being a Scouter on the 100th.If you see a Scout at Church today, please congratulate him or her and thank him or her for service to...

I just received an email from a friend regarding something new on the 2009 Federal IRS Tax Return requiring all gun owners to disclose all firearms they own. It claimed that this was verified by Snopes.The email claims it was snuck in under a list of minor regulatory changes to the IRS laws and signed off without being read by the Congress Critters.According to the email, all gun owners would need to pay a registration fee of $50 per firearm and also would require that the owners be fingerprinted.It seems far-fetched, but I wouldn't put it past the pResident. Has...

I was called the other night by a recording of Senator Jean Shaheen (Socialist - NH), inviting me to "join her in a telephone townhall meeting" this evening (Thursday, August 6, 2009). I was told I could opt out by calling her Washington office.I have noticed a flood of "telephone townhall meetings" by the RAT Party. They obviously have decided that this is a safe venue for them, where they can cut off anyone who dares to question the party line. I called her office this morning to opt out of the telecon. I told her flunky that if she...

I noticed this morning at Starbucks that the headline above the fold on this morning's "Old Grey Whore" is pushing the belief that the Iraqi River Operations against the Terrorists (my word, not theirs, of course!) is remeniscent of Viet Nam.You have to give the Whore credit...she never stops!

General Dynamics unit moves to Charlotte Charlotte Business Journal – 07/28/2003 General Dynamics Armament and Technical Products Inc. is moving its headquarters and light-manufacturing operations to Charlotte.

AU REVOIR, MARIANNE...AUF WIEDERSEHEN, LILI MARLEEN The End of America's European Romance By Ralph Peters Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, May 15, 2003 The societies of "Old Europe" remind Americans of the Arab Street. Preferring comforting delusions to challenging realities, Europeans talk a great deal, do very little, and blame the United States for home-grown ills. The recent chants in the boulevards of Berlin were almost indistinguishable from those heard-until recently-in downtown Baghdad. Europe's culture of complaint, its enthusiasm for accusing America of every wickedness while assigning every virtue to itself, and its stunning lack of self-examination leave Americans bewildered. We thought...

Yesterday, Bob Shrum, noted DemocRAT strategist, hurriedly called contacts, digging up "accomplishments" to include in the eulogy that Tom Harkin is to "deliver from the heart" today at the Wellstone Memorial Service. I sat near him in the First Class Car of the Acela Express from Boston, where he was coaching Shannon O'Brien to be an attack dog, to Newark, where he was scheduled to meet with Lautenburg that evening.He used a variety of sources. A virtual RAT focus group. Look for such accolades as "campaign finance reform", "saving the family farm from big agri-business" (Can anyone say Tysons Foods?),...
