   Reality Bites in Our Blue County

   22 March 2018

   Ah yes, once again we see our favorite white impotent, uneducated right wing racists on display right here, on the blog of the phoniest phony of them all. And all in denial once again. Seems that guns are the new porno habits for several of you losers, isn’t that right? and you know who you are. So yes, we are watching your lies and your treasonous rhetoric very carefully. For the rare science oriented amongst you old washed up geezers, y’all may want to check out the latest Scientific American. Several of you fit the exact profile of gun toting nutjobs as described by therein. Constant fear of non-white races, change and a new world. Guns replace the potency of masculinity long lost to multiple divorces and the frustration of a sexless lonely life. Kind of like that young punk christian terrorist in Austin. But much more pathetic when you saps reach age 55. You saps are going to be very very sad in the near future. Enjoy your fantasy world while it lasts. see ya soon.

   Re 1104pm & 757am – Readers may note visitations from the local fringe Left. These people make no pretense at being able to discuss issues or offer their own views on current events. Their frustrated forte appears to be just lambasting those commenters who don’t live in their tightly defined world. But the question always remains – if our forums here are so irrelevant, misguided, and (again) “treasonous” – why do they bother to post their screeds? Methinks they’re not getting their needed attention elsewhere.

   Trump better veto the spending bill. The neo-cons are running around yelling, “Military Spending, military spending, we got military spending!” That is all the neo-cons say, do, and think. It’s like watching the lying libs. Just run around waving the military spending banner and all is well.
   Yes, we desperately need to rebuild our military after Obama, Hillary (big time), toe licker Lynshay Graham and grunt sandwich McCain decimated our military by playing games in shithole countries. That decimated our men and women.
   The spending bill has money for building security walls in foreign countries, but no defense of our country. This bill is a generational sellout.
   Reagen got his agenda through only AFTER shutting down the Gov’t. Time for Trump to drain the swamp….the neo-con -illiberal con Swamp.
   It will be a rocky road at first, but worth it. Veto the Schumer-McConnel -Pelosi-Ryan happy pill bill.

    Paul, the neo-cons have always been a problem. The Swamp will never be fully drained. The reason we do not have The Wall, fiscal restraint, and a host of other items is because the Liberals and Neo-Cons never wanted those items. Never.
    Bolton is not as half cocked as he is made out to be. However, he supported Mitt Romney for Sec of State, so what more can I say…expect John Bolton would get walked over by Eoropean Socialists like they steamrolled Kerry. Neither am I so naive to say we should pull out of Afghanistan tomorrow and leave a note on the door that reads, “Next time you allow terrorist to flourish here, give us a call and we will be back.”
    Enjoy my neo-con bashing, Paul. I always said we have to clean up our side of the street before doing after the Dems.
    Trump did not write this monstrosity, Congress did. It’s no use bashing Mad Max or Peloski cause you can’t fix stupid. The bill probably contains 100,000 lawnmowers to mow the grass to prevent illegals from sneaking in, lol. What a embarrassment to our nation. She is a walking talking agrument for abortion.
    I urge Trump to veto this bill. Money for Sanctuary cities, billions for UNEARMARKED projects. and on and on it goes. Sure, some is good like money for hardening our soft target schools. But, when Chucky says the era of austerity is over, I know it’s one big poison bill I can’t swallow.
    We don’t have a revenue problem. We have a spending problem. Before the lady Great Recession, we called them “liars loans”. The RINO’s are liars.

    Archie, love how the Lefties paint Larry Kudlow as a boob tube celerity. Your ignorance is revealed on this one. Kudlow has a long history before the boob tube. He ain’t just some talking head reading the prompter like some airhead delivering the evening news. No, Mr. Kudlow has a long published history of his views and bio. He is opposed to tariffs, BYW.
    Bolton is a tough cookie and will get on the same page as Trump on geo-political policy, unlike the “Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran Johnnie”. Bolton knows the chain of command.
    And yes, I voted for McCain…before his thinker got destroyed with that awful brain tumor. May he Rest In Peace..sooner than later.

    On a lighter yet still somber note, it’s happening.
    On of my favorite conservative sites has been warning for quite some time that FB is blocking them. It goes like this. Once a small conservative site reaches 250,000 daily hits, they start getting throttled down and disappearing…or hard to find.
    A few months ago, the site disappeared. A Google search had buried the site on page 2 and when found, it took me to some Texas high school football team home page. Yes, the spelling was correct. Luckily, I had the site in my favorites, so I was good to go.
    As of last night, the site does not exist anywhere…even n FB searches.
    The silver lining is for the reader(s) who do not appreciate the memes I post. Sure, some are childish and some may have found them not funny and even crude. So, the now such readers can take some comfort in the fact that my main source of memes is gone with the wind.
    Oh well. I was warned repeatedly by the site what was happening to them and other smaller conservative sites, so I should not be surprised. I ‘m knew they would come after us rowdy Deplorables fine women and men sooner or later. Kinda wish they were wrong, instead of always being right.

    Bolton gives Fox viewers what they want. Lots of bomb, bomb, bomb; bomb-bomb Iran and North Korea and Syria and who knows who else. He is another blowhard who is trying to make up for the fact that he joined the Reserves so he would not die in a rice paddy and now he doesn’t want to lose face with the Enlistees.
    I put him in the category of deluded war hawk.
    “Many Iraq war advocates indulged unrealistic and ideological fantasies of what would happen after the invasion, but the war didn’t happen because of a “belief in essential progress.” (That wouldn’t have made the war any less unjust, but it simply isn’t true.) The motivation behind the invasion was an irrational fear of a foreign threat that was wildly exaggerated in the minds of the war’s supporters. The war was the product of panicked overreaction, dishonest claims, and shoddy reasoning. Above all, it was the product of having enormous military strength and no compunctions against using it against a much weaker country. Continuing to insist on the supposedly high-minded reasons for launching an illegal war almost fifteen years after the fact shows that many hawkish supporters of the Iraq war still won’t accept that the war was a massive blunder and terrible crime.”

    The plan is unfolding as we are headed into a fascist state. But, we knew that. Then again, the “private sector” can set their own rules and ban all conservative voices…so I am not upset. Besides, the human spirit that burns with the fire within for personal liberties and freedoms can not be extinguished by those who always force their will on others. Fascists by definition force their ideas on others and demand compliance…or else.
    Funny, I used to protest stuff. First one was one afternoon down at the School District office’s in high school over allowing some of us to grown our hair longer that the top of the collar. Chanted and marched around yelling stuff and even were joined by some fine female students demanding to be allowed to wear pants more often than the once a year on “pants day.” Some Board of Education lady came out crying and all upset. This was when FM radio was not widespread and some tiny tiny FM underground station played a song for us as word hit other towns, lol.
    Funny, after all these years, from jungle rot on my feet within my government issued boots to deadlines and commitments (what to leave in, what to leave out) I am still once again part of the counter-revolution,. The Deplorables are today’s counter-revolution. Go figure.
    Here is the song that tiny FM station played that evening moons ago. Oh my, youth is wasted on the young. FYai, I can only listen to that crap for 20 seconds now. Got bigger fish to fry.

    Here’s a Bolton quote
    “”We are confident that Saddam Hussein has hidden weapons of mass destruction and production facilities in Iraq,” Bolton said in 2002 while serving as President George W. Bush’s undersecretary of state for Arms Control and International Security. That wasn’t true, as we’d later discover after it was too late.
    Here’s where Bolton says the war in iraq was all about oil.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ09U_a80MM
    Also He was a major figures along with Cheney a Rumsfeldt that were drumming for war in Iraq within days after 9/11. He was one of the signatories to the influential, pre-9/11 neo-conservative “Project for a New American Century”, which openly called for the unilateral removal of Saddam Hussein.

    “Following perceived Iraqi unwillingness to co-operate with UN weapons inspections, core members of the PNAC including Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, R. James Woolsey, Elliot Abrams, Donald Rumsfeld, Robert Zoellick, and John Bolton were among the signatories of an open letter initiated by the PNAC to President Bill Clinton calling for the removal of Saddam Hussein.[19][24] Portraying Saddam Hussein as a threat to the United States, its Middle East allies, and oil resources in the region, and emphasizing the potential danger of any weapons of mass destruction under Iraq’s control, the letter asserted that the United States could “no longer depend on our partners in the Gulf War to continue to uphold the sanctions or to punish Saddam when he blocks or evades UN inspections.”

    This one reminds me of the old joke, “Why did the prophet have visions of dying? Because he was being stoned.”
    “Every classroom has been equipped with a five-gallon bucket of river stone. If an armed intruder attempts to gain entrance into any of our classrooms, they will face a classroom full students armed with rocks and they will be stoned,” said Dr. David Helsel.

    Well, it only took a stone for a shepherd boy to slay the mighty giant Goliath But, then again, old unarmed women throwing rocks at the shooters armed with rapid fire Hotchkiss designed M1875 mountain guns did not help them from getting slaughtered at Wounded Knee Creek. All in all, it was better than wasting away under government run housing, food, education, and care. Always a silver lining.

    Trump is a man who has no friends and likely soon to have no wife. How much can she take? First the porn star then the Playboy bunny and soon the DVD.
    From Fox:
    The saga between President Trump and the pornographic film star Stormy Daniels took on a new dimension on Friday evening when Daniels’ lawyer discussed a DVD he claimed “contains evidence” relating to the pair’s relationship.
    “If ‘a picture is worth a thousand words,’ how many words is this worth?????,” Michael Avenatti, the lawyer, tweeted on Thursday. The message was accompanied by a photo of what appeared to be a DVD in a white sleeve on a countertop. Avenatti finished the tweet with hashtags of #60minutes #pleasedenyit and #basta, the foreign word for “enough.”
    An interview Daniels (whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford) recorded for “60 Minutes” is to air Sunday.

The whole damn fed govt has been out of control for decades, so nothing really new there. The funny thing is that the Dems got a lot of what they wanted but will continue to lie about the Rs trying to starve the poor and cut off access to abortions for women. It is beyond me why Rs ever think the Dems will like them if they play nice.
