A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the "Insurrection"



Oh, how bat-poop crazed and afraid the Democrats and certain members of the Republican Party must be of Trump. They can't banish him to a deserted island (yet), nor imprison him in a dungeon -- unless the rottenest attorneys in the leftist sewer can manage an action.

So, as Senator Charles Schumer imparts a harrowing tale of narrowly escaping the wrath of Capitol invaders, and Rep. Ocasio-Cortez takes her turn before the media to cry about, about. . . whatever the heck she was referencing, and ol' devil Pelosi herself demands an investigation of good ol' boys (she was probably particularly energized by the thought that the guy who sat in her office chair may have farted in it), one wonders:  Have any distinguished members of Congress taken the time to wonder why we have come to be here at this place in American history?  Could it be that these ladies and gentlemen, dreadfully wrong as they were to overrun and occupy the Capitol building, are a collective coal mine's canary?

An uprising, yes, but to call their efforts an insurrection gives the movement too much credit.  These folks were upset, irrationally so, and they surely demonstrated their anger to an extent many of them probably never intended. When individuality gives way to a mob scene bad things tend to happen.  Yet -- like creatures who react strangely just prior to a tsunami, did these folks have a premonition of the trouble which lies just ahead?

Were they rightly annoyed because few in Washington listen to constituents anymore, electing instead to honor cash-stuffed lobbyists?  At least in the past one could write a member of Congress and receive a letter in the mail that somebody would actually have to type on a sheet of paper -- and now an office secretary just pushes a computer button and sends the same reply out to a thousand people, each believing his or hers is unique because the response is addressed to them personally.

Wha's up?  Teenage suicides are rising, Joe Biden can't think beyond the Obama years and pre-packaged leftist crap, and he apparently believes China is some kind of victim.  Maybe I would also be sympathetic to those commies had I enriched myself and my family over the years via alleged Chinese business relationships.  The laptop won't lie, will it?

All of that aside, congressional and complicit mainstream media focus remains glued in a Trump-ward direction, hoping surely for social justice or something similarly unreasonable.  We ask, if Donald Trump bears responsibility for the Capitol break-in, does the dog that instructed "Son of Sam" serial killer David Berkowitz to murder also deserve impeachment or prison time?

The mob did not require a pep talk from Trump to invade the Capitol.  Every mind follows its own path and on that note we declare that there must be people out there who become enraged and dangerous at the mere sight of a salad dressing jar.

As for those, what, 11,780 extra votes Trump was looking for -- why WOULDN'T he ask, considering how bummed out he was over the election's fairness?

Which, for no reason whatsoever, returns me to House speaker Nancy Pelosi, whose true vindictive colors emerged a few days ago when she administered the oath to returning (second time elected) NY congressional Rep. Claudia Tenney. Tenney, a single mother and conservative, wanted her Marine son, a Naval Academy grad, to be present as the oath was administered.  Instead, Pelosi forbade his presence anywhere in the chamber.  Hmm.  Is this not the woman who took or perhaps still takes military flights around the country and treats military flight personnel as personal servants?  Oh, the luxuries that come with being among the Elitists of Congress.  Forget white supremacy, it's so much better to join the elite crop!

Carefully regarding Pelosi and other members of the untrusting or military-hating congressional class, and knowing myself how I would feel about this state of affairs as a former serviceman myself, I'm not sure exactly what action I could take to protect these folks in situations where a military presence is required.  I mean, I guess I might get around to it after I finish lunch or a nap, but circumstances might dictate that I take my time.  These fools have no idea what damage they do when they dismiss, bad-mouth and condemn essential U.S. military members -- of course, they've had plenty of practice by attacking law enforcement officers who simply try to do their jobs.

Rush Limbaugh dies:  If rapidly disappearing newspapers around the country had enjoyed an affiliation with a Rush Limbaugh type over the decades, they might have enjoyed the survival rate similar to AM radio stations, for Limbaugh is the reason AM radio didn't go away, as it has in other countries. If one enjoys talk radio, to include sports talk, thank Rush Limbaugh.

How sad it was to watch just one of the unenlightened ladies of ABC-TV's magnetic moron attraction, The View condemn Limbaugh as a racist, while his long-time -- black -- producer James Golden literally broke down while telling Hannity and others what a great, shy, unassuming and charitable man his boss was.  Anybody who spent some serious hours actually listening to Limbaugh would have known the man was unique and exemplified American values for everybody.  His use of satirical thought, however, may have been too much for leftists who actually have no sense of humor when they become the targets of well-deserved Limbaugh barbs (as you may have noticed, just as network news shows exclude Things Everybody Needs To Know About Domestic Marxist Government Takeovers, late-night TV talk shows on major networks exist primarily to lampoon the right and pure non-political humor is scarce).

Since my teen years, radio fascinated me and I'm old enough to remember hearing sci-fi radio plays in the early fifties.  When I first encountered Limbaugh in the eighties as I drove to work I really disliked his show, simply because at that time I was buying all the poop Democrats shoveled out through various media.  Over time, however, I realized his wit and facts were inescapable and my thinking did an abrupt turn. Of particular interest, Limbaugh wasn't a stuffy, bloated graduate of some pompous university.  Indeed, here was as close to a self-made man as we ever encountered. Though an Independent politically, I lean heavily to the right -- and with the new and returning occupants dirtying up the White House and Congress, I'm grateful to be where I am. Simply put, Limbaugh was all about personal freedom for all Americans.  Unfortunately, the current, obviously floundering administration does not appear to entertain that all-encompassing view.

The Green Lie:  As international oligarchs and lunatics press forward with forced green living for all, we hasten to mention vicious coast to coast U.S. snowstorms which have left wind turbines silent and frozen solid in place and solar energy panels encrusted in snow.  That the Biden cult and accompanying Obama bunch would shut off domestic free and clean energy long before anything can replace its benefits and necessities shows them to be exactly what rational minds feared.

Fascists at work:  Our bonkers and dangerous friends on the far left seem to have a goal of relieving college libraries of literature not worthy of their approval.  Mark Twain, you don't stand a chance.

Late-night radio talk show broadcaster Clyde Lewis has long been pretty hot on the trail of what seem overly brutal winters in the U.S.  No, his target is not climate change or global warming -- he asserts instead that Chinese and Russian efforts at the North Pole to melt ice, ease travel routes and gain access to valuable ocean minerals and oil by causing immense electrical effects on the ionosphere are the real culprit for anomalous winter weather.
Are you listening, Greta?

Plenty of loony ideas are floating through the education system now that those whose attempts fail miserably and consistently are in charge.  As the Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights are being twisted to fit one's desired agenda, it is worth mentioning that equality and equity are nowhere the same.  As long as leftists rule the roost, racism will be heartily endorsed. Yes, THAT racism.

A NY Times writer has offered up the proposal that a reality czar be appointed to check the truthfulness of Trump and Fox News.  Government pay, government truth?

Bill Gates, please, take your money and go away. Go lecture to China, India, Russia, Iran, North Korea and other not so green players -- and just what the heck do you plan to do when volcanoes blow and pollute the earth several times over what you THINK you can control?  Beware of people with lots of money who think they own a right to control every aspect of your life -- particularly the future version.
