An Amazing Gift

We have a Creator so loving as to have given us free will. We have the choice if we want to sin. We also have the option not to go against our Lord. We all at times fall short, but we also have the chance at redemption. I will try to stay on the straight path, but when I fail, I know a loving God grants Grace to the fallen.

One Billion Severed

Any American who has had to deal with foreign call centers in all likelihood never wants to deal with them again, and many are willing to pay more to avoid it. Decades ago, I had my first encounters with outsourced technical support, having to interact with contemptuous folks in India, who automatically presumed I was an idiot and who all too often were incomprehensible on the phone. Later, I found interacting with the Philippines was almost as bad, though the employees there seemed less arrogant. I feel like I have won the lottery when I actually reach US call support. I would gladly pay a premium for a product to ensure that it uses only American call centers. I think many other American consumers would gladly pay more as well to have quick answers by people who are easily understood. I often never make a purchase again from a company once I realize that they have taken jobs away from my countrymen and caused me headaches by directing calls to them to foreign shores.

Selling More Frustration

Walmart has more physical retail locations by far than anyone else. Visiting them may well bring savings versus other retailers. Online, you may save too, but dealing with Walmart sometimes makes the DMV look warm and inviting. The in-store associates are all too often the opposite of welcoming and helpful. Internet purchases from Walmart are complicated by calls that are often routed offshore, where your satisfaction as a customer seems a very peripheral concern at best. I am lucky to be in a position to shop virtually anywhere, but I still like a bargain. It is no bargain though if you want to tear your hair out by the roots after dealing with Walmart.

Our Unprecedented Prosperity

America is enjoying a stock market that keeps surpassing all-time highs. The United States is enjoying statistical full employment. African-Americans and Hispanic-Americans are enjoying their highest levels of employment ever along with the highest wages they have ever earned. The fifteen dollar minimum wage Democrats have been pushing is irrelevant because the average starting wage under President Trump has surged to twenty-two dollars an hour. America has never had it better and President Trump, by lowering taxes and decreasing regulation, is the person who deserves most of the credit.

Endless Loop Impeachment

The members of Congress who despise Trump are oblivious to the disaster that was the Mueller hearing and everything else except their blind rage against the President. The performance of the Democrats is embarrassing but not to them, because they have no shame.

Job of Congress

I always thought the function of members of the United States House of Representatives was to represent their constituents while enhancing peace and prosperity. The Democrats in Congress could not care less about this. They want to impeach or defeat President Trump beyond all else. They hate Trump and despise the country as it was founded. They are determined to block Trump, no matter how logical his proposals are or how much good he is doing.

The Conspiracy Unravels

Robert Mueller did not drive the last nail in the coffin of the Trump administration the way Trump opponents wanted. Trump came away unscathed as Mueller looked doddering at his best moment and like a deer in the headlights through the entire proceeding. Mueller knew less about the case he purportedly assembled than many casual observers who have only gathered details on the case through the media. The entire effort could be called a hoax against President Trump, except it is far too malicious to call a hoax with stakes that are far too high.

Voting Our Hopes

We just "early voted" in Nashville's election. I have been disappointed too often by politicians who say one thing to win votes and then do the opposite after they are elected. I hope the candidates I voted for are true to their word and do not tax us out of my hometown.

Destroying All Morality

The Left has banished prayer and attempted to chase God from schools in America. They have put out the welcome mat for perversion. These mis-educators have ushered in gender confusion. They have sparked a surge both in unwed birth and abortion and now we have "stars" crawling out of the woodwork to declare the are gay, bi, or pansexual. The social engineers have turned the campus into a shooting gallery, with school massacres never seen in such numbers and blood staining our classrooms. The reason the United States became great was that we embraced the Providential blessing of liberty. Now,students are taught in the public schools to subordinate the individual to the good of the collective. This is a negation of the American Founding and is destroying the unique fabric that enabled the US to be the storehouse of freedom for the rest of the world.

State of War

War is the natural state of man. In all of human history, only a few decades have not been visited by active conflict. From when Cain slew Abel, the human race has been trying to erase itself. Now, with the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, humanity actually has the means to that end. Murder, war, and killing will never cease, until the human race is extinguished. I differentiate between murder and killing because murder is wrong while killing is sometimes necessary to thwart evil. War can be either good or evil. A war of aggression is bad. A defensive war is not. World War II is the perfect example of a great good emerging from violence. It took force to wipe out Hitlerism and stop the spree of conquest by Japan. Without war, every Jew on earth would likely be dead. All of Asia would be under the boot of the Empire of Japan. I do not want my country shedding blood anywhere, but I would rather eliminate the threat of Iran becoming a Middle Eastern Nazi Germany now, than see Israel wiped out once Iran has their nukes.

Politically Correct Movies

The left-wingers that dominate the entertainment industry are determined to spend hundreds of millions of dollars making absurd movies that virtually no one will pay to see. The folks that make the James Bond franchise are planning to kill off their audience by making the next James Bond with a black female lead as the iconic male British spy that Ian Fleming turned into one of the most watched MEN in the world. Natalie Portman is now going to be starring as a female Thor, in an absolutely laughable casting choice. The Oceans heist movies have been ruined by the female ensemble replacing more entertaining male performers. Hollywood is killing its own box office and I couldn't be happier to see liberals squandering their own clout.

Not Backing Down

Iran will never back down until they (the mullah leadership) are beat down or removed. It is not simply a matter of national or religious pride. It is a matter of devotion to an apocalyptic faith that the world must be brought into violent chaos to bring forth a sort of salvation for believers in the 12th Imam, who in their twisted theology has been hiding in a well for over a thousand years. People who fervently believe this can not be reasoned or negotiated with, but must be defeated in the same way Hitler and Imperial Japan were.

Drone for Drone

In the vein of an eye for an eye, the US has just downed an Iranian drone, after Iran had knocked an American drone down over international waters. There is a Biblical symmetry here, even if the US drone actually cost over a hundred million dollars more than the Iranian drone. Tehran should realize now that they are playing with fire and back off their aggressive path, but they won't.

War Is Inevitable

Iran has just seized an oil tanker owned by the UAE. Every day, Iran grows stronger and bolder. The world must act now to wage war to replace the expansionist theocracy that enslaves the Iranian people. If not, we will be facing a nuclear-armed Shia superpower based in Tehran but stretching across Syria and Yemen, having already taken effective control of Lebanon through Hezbollah. I would rather fight them now without nukes than later when the mad mullahs have the ability and inclination to kill millions with their shiny new atomic arsenal.

Stronger Than Ever

I am disgusted by the liars in the US House of Representative who have censured our President. Four Republican turncoats joined all the America-hating Democrats to assail Donald Trump, whose policies have ushered in an unprecedented era of prosperity in the United States. I will stand with Donald Trump more fiercely than ever, because he is standing up for his voters and most importantly, the Founding Values of our nation!

Liars Against America

I do not care if the Democrat dominated US House censures President Trump. I will continue to back my President and do all I can to see the America haters defeated.

America Haters Chastened

President Trump is right! If you think America is riddled with faults or nothing but evil, fix it or leave it. I sand with my President against the Marxist Four.

Strip Law Abiding

New Zealand experienced the horror of the mosque massacres. In response, the lunatics or morons who control that country are depriving law-abiding people of the right to defend themselves with firearms. Do you think criminals, who by definition are law breakers, are suddenly going to decide to turn in their guns because the government ordered it? No, they will keep their weapons and marvel at how easy it is to victimize the sheep that turned in their guns.

Fine Tempered Steel

Donald Trump has been tormented like no previous President. He has been attacked by Democrats, which you would expect. Virtually the entire press is against him. And now, false friends like Paul Ryan have shown their true colors. Despite this, President Trump has surpassed even Reagan in stimulating an economic boom. Trump has been forged by fire into the greatest President of my lifetime.

Hoping for Katrina

Some of those who despise President Trump are actually rooting for a tremendously destructive hurricane. They hope the storm that hits New Orleans will wreak damage and cause deaths. It is not that they personally hate the residents of Louisiana. They want an example of Trump failure so profound that it will cause him to lose reelection. They welcome chaos in service of removing Trump as President.

Pelosi Stifles Radicals

Nancy Pelosi is an old-line liberal, but she knows that America is not ready for Marxism just yet. Pelosi is smart and experienced enough to know that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the other Communist House freshmen, who only call themselves Democrats, are too far out of the mainstream to be allowed to direct the Democrat Party. These young women may win a Congressional District, but their radicalism is so pronounced that it would turn off most Americans. Pelosi would rather keep power and try to grow the Democrat base than have a few bomb throwers destroy the Democrats' chances nationally.

Rule of Leftists

Facebook sent me a survey today. I find it hard to believe that out of hundreds of friends sharing their political opinions, only around a half dozen support our President. I think Facebook manipulates the public and is trying very hard to see Trump removed from office. I know more people support traditional values and the Republican Party than I am seeing portrayed by Facebook.

Free Tommy Robinson

President Trump should grant Tommy Robinson asylum. The United States should intervene on Robinson's behalf. President Trump is facing the same vipers in the United Kingdom that have framed Tommy Robinson. President Trump can save Robinson from prison and quite possibly death during his incarceration.

The Epstein Saga

I do not care who is trying to inflict political damage based on the Jeffrey Epstein case. I care profoundly about the girls and young women harmed by this alleged monster. I hope all those who sexually exploit children face the wrath of justice that deprives them the chance to ever hurt another child.

Justin Amash Running?

It is with great excitement that I heard Congressman Justin Amash may seek the Presidency in 2020. This is the same kind of enthusiasm I would have if a rabbi sought the papacy. A Justin Amash Presidency is just not going to happen.

California Still Shaking

Another major earthquake just hit Southern California. It was even larger than the previous quake. Ironically, folks in tents on Skid Row are safer than those living in mansions in the event of a monster quake. If your tent collapses on you, not too much harm is done. If tons of masonry fall on you, chances are you will be killed. I just pray for the millions of people in the quake zone.

Love a Parade

The Washington DC Fourth of July parade was not militaristic nor menacing. It was not a campaign event for President Trump. It was about pride in the country. The event was pure patriotism.

Happy Independence Day

I woke up today with a great sense of relief. I realized if America had lost her revolution, I would be British, a horror too terrible to even contemplate. If we had lost the war for independence, we would be forced to watch the New England Redcoats thrashing our pro football teams. If we had lost the war against the king, I likely would never have seen a dentist. If we had not chased away those lobster backs, what is now Washington DC might still be a swamp- oh never mind!

Raising a Stink

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that detainees were being forced to drink from toilets because they had "no running water". How do toilets work without running water?

Not Raising Cash

Governor John Hickenlooper has not raked in millions for his Presidential campaign. He is a liberal Democrat but is just too far to the right for the radicalized Democrat Party. He would have been called left of moderate in 2016, but now he is just too centrist for the AOC Party. How far left have these Democrats gone? They have almost left the country but would fit in great in Havana.

Raising Campaign Cash

Some fringe candidates who will never be elected President are raising enormous sums. That is nice for them, but you have to remember, President Trump (the billionaire) can outspend whatever they raise by writing a check to his own campaign.
