I'm nobody special, just a flawed
human, like
some / many / all of you. As you know
from my earliest blog years, our primary concern was UFOs, and I spent
considerable time and space putting up documents acquired from decades of
files. Even as a teenager, I quickly
realized that expressing a deep interest in the UFO subject -- and speaking out
publicly about it -- easily attracted labels from "normal" folks
whose instant impressions were often far from sympathetic. Lunatic!
Hoaxer! Liar! Fraud!
A long time transpired before I dropped the hard edge which caused me to
respond angrily or enthusiastically to such charges, and ultimately I
discovered somewhat sympathetically that, indeed, you can lead a closed-minded
human to the water of scientific mysteries, but you can't make him drink or
swallow even a drop. In fact, I
sometimes took to signing correspondence with the words, Sincerely, Robert Barrow, Prominent Local
Crackpot and Noted Public Alarmist.
One skeptical newspaper editor, not entirely ready to buy UFO evidence
raw and uncooked, at least got a laugh or two out of my sign-off and told me
so.
I don't do much,
of course, with UFO information in this particular blog anymore, not because
the story doesn't continue, but because I have little access to sources which
used to be abundant and rife with documentation. Far better it is to let others take up the
cause, for my efforts are neutered, and these days echoes of whatever meager
written contributions I made turn up as brief notations in occasional books
authored by others who take up the fight.
If you have taken the time to read my blog entries all the way back from
their inception in 2007, you know all there is to know about my attempts. Well, most of it, anyway.
The thing is,
however, that I never intended to write about anything beyond UFOs and a
paranormal event here and there. Yet,
here I am -- going damned nearly bonkers POLITICAL, dwelling in a place I
never, ever thought I would occupy. In
my wildest dreams, I never anticipated blogging about my utter contempt for a
presidential administration. Never did I
think the nation in which I grew up and served militarily would someday be
summarily weakened by an administration so evil, cunning and/or imbecilic.
And now Russia
and Putin are very much on the scene, touting a new world power, if Putin has
his way, and all of this occurs as President Obama & Co. continue to sit on
their hands and cower in fear, stupidity or worthless pensiveness. The deed in Syria is done, dude, done. The only person looking presidential is
Putin, and that ain't funny. While Obama
and Kerry entertain some weird concept of peace through negotiation and endless
blah, blah, blah, Putin eschews speech for action, and as a result the Obama
bunch grow even smaller right before our eyes.
I wonder about
some things. I wonder why the bigger
players in the UFO research arena don't join the battle and publicly denounce
this White House bunch in between writing or speaking about UFOs. If they truly believe that this Democrat (and
GOP, where applicable) nightmare currently occupying Washington like rats in
the mist is about to dump a pail of UFO
"disclosure" on the carpet, I'm afraid they're sadly off the
mark. Remember, The Most Open
Administration In History has become more secretive than any previously, and
unless something drastic occurs, the only place open government has to go is
down and away.
With Putin
appearing miles more presidential than the failed president we in the states
are stuck with, as segments of the American economy, military and society
atrophy and decline, as of October 2, 2015 it cannot possibly be more clear to
those who will look and see that Obama, H. Clinton, Eric Holder and other
players in this grand Washington fiasco known as the administration require
some serious legal attention.
Apprehension, arrests, trials and, could be, conviction? No, I'm no attorney -- but I'm perked up
enough as a mere human to realize the new U.S. normal ain't right, and that
those who violate their oaths and discredit sacred official positions must be
held accountable, stripped clean of any ol' boys network ingrained to protect
the guilty. A little treason in
season? Unacceptable. If only security personnel, government and
otherwise, could just get a new attitude and arrest some of those whom they
protect -- those who are actively taking down the nation, brick by brick. .
.and executive order by executive order.
Don't look to
the Secret Service for help in this regard, however. Some, too many members of this esteemed
agency, appear embroiled in scandals regarding sex, hookers, bad driving and
now unauthorized retrieval and reading of personal stuff they aren't supposed
to access under penalty of law (. . .penalty of law, ho-hum, yawn -- who cares
about that law stuff anymore?). Maybe
some agents fell off the honor wagon because they know the whole system is
rotting to pieces. And, good grief, just
look at the swine they're forced to protect every day.
Calcium
supplements may cause merely a little death:
Yep, it happened again. All those
calcium supplements your doctor insisted you consume for years reportedly don't
do a thing to build stronger bones -- but can prematurely calcify arteries and
put millions at risk for heart attacks.
NOW they tell us. Yes, I also
once had calcium horse-size pills foisted upon me by the medical establishment
-- and even then I thought, wait, stop the music -- how do "they"
know where calcium goes when you ingest it in pill form? Now
we know -- calcium goes to all the wrong places and can cause Really Bad
Effects, such as the perpetual six-feet-under syndrome.
The shootings at
a community college in Oregon:
I'm reminded that gun-free zones are like taking a bath with no
socks on (see what I did there?). Were I
back in my college days, I'd feel the need for speed in the classroom -- speeding bullets, that
is, and far from blaming guns AGAIN, it's time for wussy legislators to develop the
gonads to fully honor the Second Amendment and let young adult folks carry
protection. And we don't mean condoms.
Gun control, Mr. President? You already have that in Oregon, and look what good it did you. Go after mental illness? Sure, but since news reports are filled these days with the tip-off that there remains a serious psychiatrist and psychologist shortage, looks like folks will just have to continue reliance upon those voices in their heads, the ones telling them to kill, destroy or run naked through the streets. Some probably even believe they're President of the United States, and my dilemma might be that at this point I couldn't differentiate them from you.
Interesting,
too, that the president emerged from his lair to vocalize sweet nothings
regarding the college shootings, while otherwise remaining silent about Putin's
single-handed emasculation of the invisible Obama foreign policy. Now you see it, now you didn't.
