Pray, Cry, Go Away

I'm no way Catholic, but I guess I would have hit the streets to watch the pope go by, if I could have given him an appropriate gift along the way.  Unfortunately, I was unable to find a Linda Blair "Exorcist" doll featuring a spinning head.  No matter, the Vatican is probably well-stocked with similar paraphernalia -- you know, for demonstrations, like when you learn mouth-to-mouth in EMT classes?

And wasn't it confusing when the pope spoke before Congress and departed, and then Speaker John Boehner spoke before Congress and announced he's leaving, too?  For a moment there, I wasn't sure which actually had a seat in Congress to give up, until I realized the pope's the one without a pink tie. 

So let's put this into perspective:  Boehner's ulterior motive, consciously or not, seemed to involve inviting the pope to speak before Congress, after which he and his family could receive personal papal blessings -- while the rest of our souls remain in extreme jeopardy, untouched and blessed not by so much as a hamster on the wheel.  And now the great Boehner, whose leaderless leadership allowed the Obama bunch to get away with pretty much its every desire, even as his concentration focused upon slamming Tea Party conservatives at every turn, is abandoning his elected position in the House, betraying the voters who put him there last election.

A job well undone, Mr. Speaker -- now, ride off into the sunset and have a good cry.  After all, that's apparently what you do best.

Senator Mitch McConnell:  The next GOP mannequin out the door?  This task might be a lot tougher, since the Senate wolf pack traditionally tends to circle the wagons and protect one another.  That is -- they're esteemed senators, and they can do no wrong.

The Obama Bunch:   This politburo should have faded into bad history long ago.  Will voters be smarter in the next election?  Once the dust settles, will Obama cult members be charged with treason, high crimes and misdemeanors, or plain old incompetence in some cases?  Isn't Marxism a tad incompatible with the presidential oath?

Want to stop Obama's plan to bring 200,000-plus Syrians (and likely terrorists) to the USA?  If you're mean and obviously a crackpot and a racist like me, and you just hate everybody who isn't you, then you'll want to pay attention here:  The organization, NumbersUSA.com suggests phoning all of the following GOP budget planners and demand that they exclude funding in the fiscal year 2016 budget for resettling Syrians in the United States.  Call now, don't delay, this is the last week to call.  To do otherwise says you can't wait to have Sharia law in your neighborhood and you love the smell of disarticulated body parts in the morning.  Here's the list:

 Like every kid in America, from the earliest age I longed to be the first on my block to build a briefcase alarm clock that looked like a bomb and counted down to zero rather than advancing forward.  Oops, wait, nope, make that a tree fort.  Sorry about my confusion there. . .

At any rate, it appears that Ahmed, 14, wasn't confused when he brought a clockie-bombie looking device assembled in a case into a Texas school and made concerted attempts to make sure several teachers saw the device, before somebody actually took the government's  see something, say something  advice seriously and called the cops (we also learn that Ahmed is allegedly well known to the school district, whatever that means. . .).  No matter that, for now the school is in trouble for daring to follow government guidelines, and no doubt a lawsuit is in the works for violation of Ahmed's civil right to pack any little suspicious thing he wishes as he's school-bound.  You've already read about this curious incident (and don't forget about Ahmed's dad, who hosts a very interesting background involving aspirations to rule The Sudan and an association with the Muslim Brotherhood and C.A.I.R.), so we won't belabor the issue -- but be assured that, had Ahmed's name instead been Throckmorton D. Wellington III, he would already be in reform school and there would be no invitation to meet the White House Marxist-in-chief, who can be very, very understanding and accommodating when members of particular religious and ethnic populations are involved.  After all, Black Lives Matter, dedicated to making a hell on Earth for cops everywhere, just left the White House with best wishes and compliments.

(Please, please, please -- somebody take this president and his willing accomplices into custody, try them and convict them.  Big Time prison sentences, too.  Intellectual criminals, lunatics or (more likely) both, this bunch needs to be held legally accountable for its actions.  And get the Muslim Brotherhood cult out of our government, where it isn't supposed to exist in the first place.)

The Anchor Monster from the Media Lagoon:   Leaks from ABC state that ABC-TV News anchor David Muir has taken to yelling rudely at his subordinates and has become the "anchor monster" ever since his ratings began dropping while viewers flocked instead to Lester Holt on NBC.  Murkying up the situation even more, Muir reportedly insists upon doing his own TV makeup, rejecting the work of ABC's makeup personnel as he re-applies makeup appealing to his own standards -- resulting, according to some, in a yellowish facial hue as the cameras focus.  May we suggest that he employ the cosmetic talents of Caitlyn Bruce Caitlyn Bruce Caitlyn Bruce Caitlyn Jenner prior to future appearances on the nightly news screen?  Besides, that yellow face is sure to produce jokes about yellow journalism and the like.  Muir, who nearly collided with me years ago as he galloped out of a store I was entering, needs a fast facial fix if he wants those ratings back.  Or maybe he just needs to take on the Lester Holt persona.

TV's Lost in Space, 50 years later:  Surviving cast members still get together now and again to celebrate and remember, and now the whole series is available on DVD.  Cheesy sets and mindless scripts, yes, but the series was enhanced by the antics of "Dr. Smith" and the robot.  The robot's  oft-repeated warning, "Danger, Will Robinson, danger!" has become a part of our American vernacular, and we wonder if an older Billy Mumy (Will Robinson) still hears himself starting off almost every sentence spoken to his scheming dark-side mentor with the words, "Dr. Smith. . ."  As for Mumy, forget Lost in Space -- I'm far more intrigued by the song, Fish Heads, written and performed in later years by Billy Mumy and a friend under the phony names, Barnes and Barnes.   Exuding simplicity and sparse on words, Fish Heads can probably be interpreted by some subversive minds as a very naughty song.

Trump and Carson on Islam:   Sharia law is incompatible with the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights.  You've heard it, you've read it and it's true.  The question remains, how do you tell the peace-loving Muslims from the terrorists as this population grows?  Imams in this country, some already expert at visiting prisons and converting bad guys into worse guys, will continue their work and we'll be screwed as a society without quick intervention, as the flood of "refugees" continues.  Are there Islamic villages in the U.S., places which worry the FBI?  Yes.  In fact, in travels, I sometimes pass near one.  One doesn't wish to think the worst, but becoming dismissive of the evil planned over and over to destroy one's own nation is as hazardous as ignoring the elephant in the living room.  Carson -- and Trump, despite his other comments -- need to be taken seriously on this one.  Danger, Will Robinson, danger! 

From Anchors Aweigh to Anchors Away

 >>>Side Notes: UFOs.   Controversy rages on, but the April 25, 2013 video of an alleged UFO leaked by a whistle blower sort working for an offshoot of Homeland Security boggles the minds of those with boggle-able minds.  Was it a UFO with the power to split into two separate objects via some high-tech mitosis?  Just birds?  Digital tomfoolery?  A government project involving submersible drones?  Like a Bob Dylan song, the answer's blowin' in the wind, but the fact is that something was tracked over Aguadilla, Puerto Rico in 2013 by a Customs and Border Protection aircraft equipped with thermal imaging capabilities, something traveling fast & furious and thrilling the casual viewer with several minutes of video evidence, the climax being its apparent (?) ability to convert one bogey into two.  The video is Internet-accessible now, as is at least one lengthy .pdf report prepared by scientific image investigators, so if you've not yet witnessed the wonders of a real flying what's-it mystery, be sure to check it out -- and also consult the fine work of reporter Billy Cox (see link) and Frank Warren (see link to UFO Chronicles).  They and others have offered documentation and links regarding this most interesting case.  Whatever the video depicts, nobody checking after the fact has found any evidence of obvious propulsion components for the thing or its eventual companion.

Also -- Robbie Graham's new book, Silver Screen Saucers  (see link of the same name), was published this month.  I've not seen it yet, but knowing of Robbie's detailed writing regarding UFOs and the subject's relationship with motion pictures, Hollywood and government entities, I'm sure his extensively researched book will be a fascinating and sober addition to every library, private or public.  A movie or documentary based on the book is reportedly in preparation as well.  Amazon currently sells the book, and surely many other outlets carry it.<<<

"People who need people are the luckiest people in the world."   With apologies to Barbara Streisand and her lyrics from the "Funny Girl" musical's feature song, "People," gotta disagree.  Anybody coming to the United States either by hook or by crook, and actually making it here in violation of every ignored violation in the book, those are the lucky people -- and they don't "need" American citizens for anything except paying their welfare bills, which we do because we're a nation of suckers, of compassionate fools who know not when to say NO MORE.

It's not just border-jumpers -- or is the politically correct term  wetbacks?  This gets so confusing. . . -- from the South who cross boundaries just to reach U.S. territory so they can drop an automatic citizen baby out of the womb:  It's also Chinese women and others who fly in and take up space in hotels and illegal safe houses so they can give birth to on-site American citizens, with all the instant benefits and free citizenship tickets for other family members that money or no money can buy.  Congress could have stopped this Constitutional Amendment chestnut long ago, but chose not to.  If anything needs to be done right now, it's addressing the anchor baby travesty and, indeed, it's time to toss this baby out with the bath water  birth water.

Wherever you go, people are just people.    Good grief, how many times have we heard  that  piece of advice from others whom you just want to pounce upon and strangle?   Not all people are created equal, at least not according to their religion.  Take all these "refugees" flooding Europe and, coming soon to your town, the United States.  If you haven't watched videos -- the ones they aren't showing on mainstream media news -- showing waves of young Middle Eastern men, angry and arrogant, you've missed the boat.  Scrambling over fences and across countries, they scream F*** you! to the established citizenry as they invade countries and cities, sometimes throwing feces at onlookers -- and on one occasion young men dragged an old woman from her car so they could use it for their intended trip to Germany.

They arrive not with starving bodies and hands out in gratitude.  Instead, they come well-attired, shouting Allah's name and regarding those whose lands they invade as infidels, as lesser people, and in time they will build schools where their children are taught to hate and perhaps kill anybody who won't kiss Allah's butt in a certain way.  And mosques, yes, mosques will rise, towering higher than competing religious institutions.  If they can, they'll probably buy up or simply take abandoned Christian churches and either destroy them or take them down and build a new mosque where faithful followers of Jesus used to pray in peace.

Of course, many arrivals with Islam in their hearts and minds will go about their new lives quietly, but others of the radical bent will never, ever be content to live in a land not yet violently conquered by Islam, as dictated by the Koran, and there is nothing native governments and security forces can do to change their minds.  To reinforce their vows to murder Christians, Jews, atheists and other "non-believers," the new arrivals,  a significant portion of whom will never assimilate into the American way, will do what they have always done in the course of bloody conquest throughout the centuries -- they will produce large families, many offspring with malleable minds, brains poised to learn hatred for the infidel as they are taught everything within the walls of their own madrasas. 

Don't tell us to take pity on Muslim children's faces as they come streaming like parasites across Europe, not any more than we could be coaxed to pity the cockroach or the viper!  Ingrained among them will be hatred for us and the centuries-old promise not to assimilate among the infidels.  When you treat those who take you in as enemies, subservient to you and as dirt under your feet -- baby, that ain't assimilation.

Anybody who anticipates some miraculous reformation of Islam in the years ahead into something harmless is more than likely deluding himself or herself.  In this case, as has been demonstrated consistently, people are not always just people -- a lesson the West will soon learn dearly, as it rolls out the welcoming carpet of compassionate stupidity amidst societies populated by the lazily detached, stupid or ignorant.  We can still choose, but we will probably choose unwisely.  As we said last time, the Trojan Horse is back in a spanking new Middle Eastern model, and its compartments of death and evil are greater than ever.

Have we learned nothing since 9/11/2001?  Just who pulls the strings to destroy the West?

The new TV season:   Whoa, what a load of televised poop slowly winding its way to TV-friendly homes across the USA this season.  We predict a high level of cancellations among shows which fail to feature zombies, particularly when we've read of extreme conflict among producers, directors and writers desperate to rewrite or put a fix on new shows already destined for the corpse bin.

Kim Davis:   Her job requires issuing marriage licenses to gay folk, and if she can't handle the specs she should resign and find a way to celebrate her religion in other employment.  Or maybe she could explore jobs working as a zombie in the new TV season.

Planned Parenthood:   Conservatives and just plain embracers of the GOP need to stay out of the bedroom.  These attacks never go well for Republicans, come voting time, but darned if they aren't immersed in the abortion quagmire all over again.  To paraphrase some wise advice, the road to polling place hell is paved with good intentions.
