If you didn't get a really bad feeling in your gut after listening to Biden impart maxi-socialism during his televised racist, wealth-stealing / redistribution, hate-America speech last week, some part of you is already dead, and rational intervention will neither resuscitate nor regenerate what's missing. Fascists running your country? Oh boy, are they ever.
White supremacy is the country's biggest problem? Excu-u-u-u-u-se me while I stand on a rooftop and make the recently now-dreaded OK sign with three fingers. These morons would not currently be chewing up the nation like the rats they are without votes, accumulated either legally or who knows how.
How I wish South Carolina's Sen. Tim Scott or somebody like him could have been the first black president. Instead, we got and continue to get Obama, served up on a leftist platter like poisoned quiche and recurrent in our government like incurable indigestion. Scott's insistence that fighting racism with a different kind of racism is absurd earned him lots of barbs from the left, predictably.
Oh, but I need to digress into vaccinations for a moment. . .
"You can bury your mistakes, I can't." My father and his siblings grew up during the Great Depression. He never finished high school because he needed to help bring in income for a large family, and he and two of his brothers eventually found themselves in the Army during World War II, while the youngest fourth later entered the military during the Korean conflict. As his life progressed, Dad held a number of jobs, many of them involving mechanics, and though he was generally under-appreciated for his ability to repair or build all manner of devices, he wasn't very efficient at caring for his health. He smoked constantly, disliked vegetables, could be as comfortable with a can of pork & beans as he would be with an elegant restaurant meal (while in the Army, stationed in Alaska, he was a cook, though he routinely assisted with mechanical work in the motor pool) and unfortunately exposed his hands to plenty of solvents, gasoline, etc. in the course of his life.
All of that may have had a bearing on the cancer which eventually claimed him. Nevertheless, my father was no fan of the medical doctor class, and when at last numerous visits to physicians for tests and exams became inescapable he relented and followed -- some -- medical advice.
And yes, he would mutter the words quoted above to his primary physician and others whenever he felt frustrated about something they said. He surely was not the first patient ever to say those words to a doctor, but one has to realize the sheer brilliance of the meaning inherent in such a brief word shower. So, why do I bring this up?
I haven't availed of myself an opportunity to receive a Covid immunization. Am I scared of needles? No, and I've pretty much had every routine immunization offered over the years. Do I trust science? I respect science very much, but also realize that change is constant, even in science, once one gets past what appear firmly established basics.
Frankly, while immunizations appear critically effective right now, nobody knows how the use of messenger RNA and various components will affect autoimmune systems way in the future. If you read this blog regularly (though I suspect a good deal of you visit just to click on the links, and that's great!) you know that during my medical Air Force years I treated several patient afflicted with a neurological dilemma known as the Guillain-Barre' syndrome, which can result in weeks or months of total body paralysis in the worst cases, sometimes necessitating a ventilator.
The thing is, later on when a "Swine Flu" outbreak embraced the nation and medical science came through with immunizations for the population, more than a few disturbing cases of the G-B syndrome popped up among those who received the vaccine, suspected as side-effect damage to neurological systems.
So I'm cautious. The practitioners of medical science often know what they are doing, but sometimes they don't -- on rare occasions, fortunately -- when the littlest of unanticipated things can go haywire.
Big pharma has an arrangement with the U.S. government regarding possible instances of vaccinations gone wrong: The government pays and Pharma can't be sued. Comforting, eh? Which prompts me to say. . .
The financially lucrative vaccine industry can bury its mistakes, I can't.
Condemned as they have been by "competent" medical science, Covid-19 fighting alternatives such as hydroxychloroquine (a common and cheaper drug) and even a veterinarian favorite, ivermectin (a few cents worth) have repeatedly shown promise. It just depends on whether one listens to powerful "anti" lobbying groups with a financial agenda (and not to forget Internet "cancel culture" censors) or independent researchers themselves.
Whether to take the Covid vaccine is an important decision and it should be, though it's not, left up to each individual. Now that Big Pharma also considers mixing the "flu" shot and a Covid booster together using the RNA messenger approach, that's an entirely new development to consider, and at least in the short term I'll probably just skip the whole affair. But you do what you feel best.
Good news? Pfizer, I think it's they, is reportedly working on an oral medication -- a pill -- to prevent Covid, and that may be a lot more palatable to those on the sidelines if successful. Is this the one that disables a particular enzyme needed by Covid to reproduce? So we've heard. Yet, the virus turns out mutations with which to deal.
Biden's speech: Take your money, take your kids' and grand kids' money and give it to somebody else so we can have equity in the face of doom. Is that about it? Nowhere in his presentation did I hear him distinguish between legal and illegal families and children destined to be the beneficiaries of other people's money. And just what the hell is this "fair share" that the rich, who pay most of the taxes already, aren't paying? Biden wants bigger government, more power and less you, that's for sure. His reflections on the Second Amendment were likewise charming, though he, like most leftist politicians who cry about gun control, failed to use the right words. While he talked about how many bullets it takes to go hunting and kill a deer, the obviously overlooked point is that the Second has nothing to do with hunting, unless one is referencing a rogue government in need of law and order. If the House and Senate approve the long-term theft of six trillion dollars plus a lot more for "infrastructure" involving socialist spending over actual road and bridge repairs the country desperately needs, certain folks need to exit Washington next time elections provide the opportunity.
Radical Democrats are in a frenzy to gain federal control over sheriffs and police everywhere, in addition to dominating children's education, voting and our very economy. They can hardly contain themselves, hoping to make gigantic gains before 2022 elections when, we hope, enough functioning brains aware of the truth exist in the USA to eject every extremist in D.C. There (sigh...) lies a major problem.
What floats your boat? One might ask this question of the "captain" and his cargo of illegals from that boat which self-destructed in San Diego this weekend, killing three and filling hospital emergency rooms with many more. Taken together with a house in Texas crammed with illegals from Central America discovered last week, we suggest that Biden, Harris and the rest of these hapless, dangerous "leaders" start thinking, as did Trump, of America first. Maybe they don't know how.
Kyle Rittenhouse: Good luck, young man. Whatever the circumstances, if people come after me and I'm armed, they're going to light up. Yeah, you should have been home, but I think your sense of wanting to protect others from the mob should mean something in court. I'm getting very comfy with the idea of just shooting those who riot and destroy, and if they go on the attack against somebody, that individual has an obligation to stop them by any means at hand. In this case -- thank you, gun.
How to make a ghost gun: Hmm. Well, the courts have decided it's legal to post how-to instructions online. Oh, that damned, damned Second Amendment, hey kids?
New York legislators should start shaking: This commie-light bunch, mostly that is, should perhaps be a tad nervous as the Supreme Court decides whether those with very limited handgun "carry" permits (in the house, basically) should be allowed to carry in public, everywhere, maybe even state to state. NY does not want people to enjoy gun rights unless its government approves -- and this will not go over well, depending.
Black farming in the USA: At least one lawsuit has emerged over the Biden syndicate's insane intent to assist black farmers financially, but not white farmers. This lawsuit regarding the ultimate in racial discrimination should be successful and resound all the way to at least Mars.
The ticking Chinese clock: One hopeful note arises among all the pure evil intended by Chinese communists intent upon conquering the earth -- China's vast population is ageing, just as much of the world experiences a similar "crisis." Shall the planet be taken over by advanced Chinese weaponry obtained via the theft of American intellectual property, or by old Chinese folk waving canes and dinner-snakes in the air? We suppose the Chi-coms could always consider putting millions of rocking chairs on those precious artificial islands to care for its true future.
Computer chip shortages and cars: Oh my. Well, a chip shortage will affect lots of things, and we find no comfort in the bare-faced fact that China produces most of the chips. Perhaps auto manufacturers might consider returning to the past, where cars drove just fine without computers, chips or government over-regulation? O' course, that would mean using more gasoline again, but. . .oh, silly me, forget it.
Bill Gates, the farmer: Apparently, (before the marriage split, just announced) he's bought up a lot, a LOT of farm property. Will our micro-cellular systems soon be choking to death on even more GMO foods as attempts are made to both feed and poison the world at the same time, thanks to genetic engineering? Frankenstein-approved nutrition, the, um, key to the future.
At home with "The Great Reset:" If this international plan was concocted by a room full of kind and beneficial elitists, we might have something. Instead, the evil that humans can do will be aptly demonstrated upon nations which do not deny and prevent its germination. The United States, ripe for the pick-pocketing under Biden's select dog pile cabinet, has much to lose as the Third World will be more than happy to remake us in its own image. The global elite, like my father's physicians, can bury their mistakes. Countries harpooned by self-serving decisions, unfortunately, cannot.
