If you're away from snow and frigid cold right now, congratulations! If you're me, however, I'm enjoying both against my will. Should I sue? I'll return someday soon, when It's All Over, but for now here's a new visual for your interest, and this 1862 comment really seems to suggest it IS all over!

An Infectious Presidency?
It should have
been
obvious by last summer that something more
than thousands of
illegal immigrant "children" from Central America was likely to crash
the U.S. border -- compliments, in no small part, of President Obama's
gelatinous border policies, and what might be perceived by some as an open
invitation to potential border jumpers.
That something
more was disease: Bacterial and
viral diseases of dangerous repute, and in some cases diseases we thought were
eradicated from our country long ago.
Only now -- and
this is almost beyond comprehension to me -- are some members of the media
starting to question whether, indeed, measles, mumps, a highly dangerous form
of tuberculosis and other "alien" illnesses sprouted from the border,
from whence came thousands of uninspected, unvaccinated, untreated individuals,
medical histories thoroughly unknown -- people whom the Obama bunch proudly and
quickly dispersed all over the country like demon seeds from unlabelled packets
acquired from trash cans.
This is not
brain surgery. All one need do is look
at early maps displayed by media sources just days ago,
where the Southwestern United States, including California, indicated the
origin of multiple illnesses -- which subsequently spread all over the country.
Predictably,
however, mainstream media mouthpieces, for the most part, remained off trail, focused instead upon troublesome
hometown parents who just won't vaccinate their kids. No, it matters not WHY diseases which
disappeared long ago have resurfaced.
Better to blame parents first.
Think this is bad? Wait until the
really good infectious stuff grows feet and walks over the borders. Expecting to be saved by the Centers for
Disease Control or the Food and Drug Administration? Okay, trust whom you wish.
Meanwhile,
stories surface about government plots regarding pre-planted diseases and
(again) autism's possible relationship to childhood vaccines.
Of course,
you're familiar with those stories about crazy people who write letters to the
White House all the time? Well, since
allowing e-mails years ago, I'm sure the nut material continues to grow, and
I'm sure I could be thrust into the mix because I sent an e-mail (unanswered,
natch') to the White House bunch wayyyyyyy back, last mid-July, and my first draft (which actually is pretty
much the same as my final copy) looked like this:
I'm a Vietnam
Era veteran, subject to the military draft, who instead enlisted in the Air
Force, and over the course of four years assisted in treating thousands of
patients in USAF hospitals. What I am
NOT is a U.S. president of considerable privilege, engaged in a hissy-fit
because I can't get my way regarding immigration -- and taking it out on
essential border security personnel and valuable health care workers, exposed
to a range of profoundly serious diseases and chores for which their talents were
never intended -- as adults, children, gang members, probable terrorists and
invading nationals from countries not even on this continent flaunt our laws in
apparently well-organized waves. Worse,
Mr. Obama is shipping these folks all over the country, exposing Americans,
near and far, to potential untold illness, crime and expense, all with the
consequences of changing this country and plunging it into chaos with
characteristics of the Third World. The
evidently established fact that this onslaught was anticipated back in January
or previous to that puts this Administration in a very bad light. President Obama could end most of this in
days simply by putting the National Guard and/or other military personnel on
the border to stop these folks from even encountering our convoluted legal
system -- and we do have laws which this Administration merely chooses not to
enforce. Mr. Obama took an oath as
president and appears unwilling and/or unable to carry out his duties and
responsibilities to protect the USA and its people, and as this becomes
increasingly clear, I must confess an inability to understand why people both
high and low in this Administration haven't yet been arrested, led away in
handcuffs and put on trial for reasons and actions best known to the legal
system. There's a word for the appropriate accusation, but I won't use it here.
Obviously, this president, who claims a background in constitutional law, needs to come forward and
explain to the American people exactly which country's constitution he
currently references, as he may harbor a little confusion or intent over the
differences between acting as a U.S. president and dictating as a king. In the meantime, it is my opinion that every
military veteran or active duty person who ever served this country honorably
has been slapped in the face by this president's actions and possible
lawlessness, something that not even the temporarily unrestrained rabidity of
Executive Orders can fix.
Again, that was
sent last July. I should not have needed
to engage in such strong language, but we apparently host an administration
intent upon doing its own bidding, and to hell with the ("elections
have") consequences. Impeachment? Why impeachment? Why not just cut to the chase and make some
arrests of folks who, when it comes to the borders, have gone all out to place
the citizens whom they swore to protect in medical jeopardy? This isn't just Obama-bashing -- he has a
whole community of collaborators willing to jeopardize us all to attain goals
of which most of us wish no part. And
it's not merely a Democrat vs. Republican issue. As we can see by the apparent breakdown of
all the tough talk we heard from Republicans before the elections regarding
immigration and Obamacare, promises are lies and lies can be promises.
Children and
adults die from diseases that should not exist within our borders, and I doubt
that one can place blame strictly on international airline flights or the
like. But I am confident, simply as a
plain old moron American who sees what he sees, that we can blame this
administration for much among current health issues, and when it comes to
exposure and death, maybe a little consideration of negligence, criminally
negligent homicide, manslaughter or even murder should be entertained and
administration entities arrested, tried and, we hope, convicted with a ticket
to long prison sentences.
Impeachment? Seems as though the
justice system would be obligated to step in and accompany the niceties
involved with that slick, but imperfect process. As if we currently have a legitimate
Department of Justice to do the job. So
surprise us already. We, the American
lab rats and human Petri dishes.
(What if, by
the way, the seemingly frantic push to pour "fresh" people into
the U.S., no matter what, relates to fears that just a few years down the road
most Americans might be consumed either by autism or Alzheimer's?)
The current
definition of White Privilege: Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton. That just about covers it.
Valentine's Day
arrives this month, and we remind those of us getting along in
years that eventually love is right around the coroner. Right around the. . .see what I did there?
The Jordanian
Pilot: Death by Fire. The expressed anger and outrage on the part
of Jordan's king over the savage torching of his military's pilot is
encouraging -- at least Jordan has a national leader who holds nothing back and
acts appropriately, unlike "some" who seem unable to make a move
without worrying about following to the letter what some university textbook or
leftist foreign policy booklet dictates.
ISIS, a highly extremist Islamic hive representing terrorists in some 11
countries, has presented to the world the ultimate torture video, and one hopes
Arab states and other countries which, until now, seemed unconcerned, unaware
or scared to death of this herd of maniacs will step forward and vow to stomp
this brutal Muslim Brotherhood offshoot tentacle to pieces.
Among my duties
in Air Force physical therapy way
back when was the treatment of burn
patients, and once you find yourself engaged in taking a scalpel and
painstakingly cutting layers of blackened, burned skin off charred human beings
who suffered severe, life-threatening war injuries or fire-related incidents,
one gains an appreciation for the degree of hell the Jordanian pilot must have
endured. Personally, I'm a proponent of
holding grudges, and I hope the human scum colony responsible for performing
this horror upon the pilot and a multitude of other folk enjoys an
equal-opportunity favor returned someday soon.
A vast majority
of millennials can't even name one of their own state's two U.S. senators? So we're told. Who will save them? The military that some profess to hate? Who will save them? The police that some profess to hate? Who will save them? The firearms that some profess should be
taken from every American for some greater good? Bitter may be the lesson learned by
uninformed young dreamers who think they can talk or charm their way out of
every occasion, or walk away from life's threats as if successfully ending a
video game.
Brian Williams: Good grief, can we just use science to resurrect the late Tom Snyder, one of the last good things about NBC, and try him on the news desk again, as they did in Los Angeles? Sometimes I regret that I'm old enough to remember David Brinkley and Chet Huntley. News was news and journalists were journalists.
