History

It is probably hard for me to say, because I have no children, or grandchildren; but you hear things, and maybe accurate history isn't being taught anywhere anymore.

Based upon my observations at the time, here's my rundown on American history since Bush's were in office.

As you recall, 911 was on Bush's watch. At the time, the Democrats were trying to say that he "let it happen". This isn't about whether or not that is true, it is simply reporting on what was said at the time.

The public rallied around Bush. His approval rating may have topped 90%, which is a pretty unheard of type number. Everyone was totally on board. But there were a few critics on the sidelines. They had to be quiet, but at first, they were not. I recall a certain amount of what appeared to me as being "satisfaction" at what the terrorists managed to do to us.

When I observed that, it was quickly and vehemently denied. You see, the left had the reputation of being less than 100% patriotic. This was a fact.

Anyway, Bush's adventures ended up with the US military sucked into a war in Iraq. Thanks to this, he let the Democrats off their leash. Bush's position was that there were Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq. The Democrats said that they were tricked into believing it to be true, but it later turned out to be doubtful ( according to Bush's defenders).

Now get this: Bush's actions were also the GOP's actions. Republicans had to defend Bush now, even if it appeared that he could have been wrong. As the war dragged on, Bush's numbers began to fall steadily. By the time of the election of 2004, it was a crapshoot as to whether or not he would be re-elected.

A disclosure here repeated once again because I've said it before on this blog: I had reservations about going into Iraq. Not any reservations about Saddam being a bad guy, but reservations about the Democrat support. I grew up during the Vietnam Era. I KNEW how treacherous the left can be, and to take a risk in empowering them was one that should not have been taken.

So when the war began I had this uneasy feeling. Nevertheless, you cannot unscramble the egg. Bush was GOP and I supported the war. But I turned out to be correct about the Democrats, and by the time Bush left in 2008, he had thoroughly wrecked his own polls as well as the GOP's. In the end, he was just like his Dad. His Dad inherited a united Party, and a united country. The country had turned mostly conservative. By the time Bush left, all that was smashed to hell.

So we get Clinton in 92 and Obama in 2008. Same pattern, same results.

Then Trump runs in 2016. He wins, but there is a very loud, vocal minority within the party that doesn't support him. Among these are the ones who pushed so hard for intervention in Iraq. Trump said that he opposed Iraq, amongst other things that upset this noisy wing of the GOP.

There was a big stink about Russia. Even though the GOP controlled both houses of Congress, and the Presidency, it didn't seem to matter. They allowed the Democrats to push this "conspiracy theory" of Russian interference in the election.

The subsequent investigations didn't support the conspiracy theory, but that didn't unite the faction of the party that still opposed Trump.

Personally, I never gave any credence to this theory. Besides, all the rules were being broken during the "investigation", which evidence shows that those who pushed it knew there was no "there" there.

It looked like a politically motivated misuse of the government to suppress political opposition. The Never-Trump faction allowed this. But they grudgingly supported Trump like they were being force to against their will. I believe that to be true. They really didn't want to support Trump.

Anyway, to fast forward a bit, we had the election year last year, and Trump is no longer POTUS.

Now I want to go back over something I wrote early in this piece. In 1992, the GOP was still considered to be the party the people trusted with foreign policy. But note now that the Democrats are trying to seize that issue and make it theirs.

My point is this: How were they able to get into position to do this? It is because of the decisions that George W. Bush made as POTUS. Furthermore, it was because of the decisions that George HW Bush, Bush's father, made that allowed Clinton to take over the law and order issue. Prior to that, the GOP owned that issue too.

Therefore, the Bushes lost two issues to the Democrats. Another issue that the GOP had was that they were considered to be the more patriotic of the two major parties. Note that the faction that supported the Russian collusion thing allowed the Democrats to seize that issue as well. The GOP party is now smeared with disloyalty to the country even though the Democrats are trying to overthrow the entire culture.

Look where the GOP is now. It no longer has the law and order issue, even though the Democrats would do nothing about the riots last year. It no longer has the foreign policy issue, even though the Democrats have historically supported regimes that were unfriendly to this country. The GOP is now being called "Quislings" by figures such as Krugman of the New York Times. We are now what the public USED to think about the Democrats ---- even though the Democrats have not become super patriots and lovers of freedom like "Il Duce, the Sawdust Caesar" pretends to be.

How the hell did all this happen? It all has one constant. The faction of the GOP which does not support this country, but only pretends to. I would call them the Bush wing of the party, but it includes a lot more than that.

Meanwhile, the conservative wing of the party gets all the blame.

Why does the conservative wing of the party have anything to do with these people, who I have labelled as Quislings? Haven't the conservatives being stabbed in the back enough times to call it quits with these losers? They ARE losers. Look at what they have lost. They seem to do this on purpose.

The GOP cannot win anything worth winning with this faction within its ranks. Either they go, or we SHOULD. There is no common ground with them. They share more with the Democrats than with the vast majority of the party's grass roots. All they are good for is to destroy the very things that we care about.

Quisling

The word gives me some trouble. Why it does is a mystery to me. If I don't refer to notes, the word gets away from me, and I have to look it up again.

Evidently this word has been splattered all across the Pravda-media-swine-complex which so many seem to be addicted to. Krugman used it in the New York Slimes, so the use of this word seems to be "theirs" for some reason.

For me to use it doesn't give it the impact that I'd imagined it might. It has been around since before World War deuce, and I suppose the leftist swines have been using it and it is really their word after all. A Quisling is a RIGHT-WING collaborationalist with the NAZIS. It is their word.

Here I am complaining about using their words. Well, that word was so ingrained in our common lexicon that it didn't mean in those days what it means today. Or supposedly what it means today.

It is best to think of a Quisling as a traitor. Someone who sells out his country to an enemy.

So, for Krugman to call the GOP "Quislings" for supporting Trump, he is calling them an enemy for selling out to Trump. First of all, for Krugman and his ilk, Trump would have to be an enemy, and two, they'd have to sell out to him instead of the country.

To refute that, they did not sell out to him. Their "support" for him was in the most superficial way possible without being openly opposed. Many Never-Trumpers were opposed to him in open. However, they didn't represent much of the party. Those who "sold-out" only sold out to their real friends, the leftist swine. This tells you that they didn't sell out to the left, but they did sell out their voters, who did not for them, but for Trump.

Interesting that they consider Trump an enemy. Evidently, they don't want America to be great again. But we all knew that. They hate the flag and founding fathers.

Too bad the "Quislings" in the GOP don't get that. Or they do, and are waiting for the best offer they can get from their real friends on the swinish left. Even the Quislings are Quislings for their lefty buddies. Well, we can agree on something after all.

Today's whatever theater

What to write about today? If you were wondering about the FBI surveillance, it didn't show up today. It is supposed to be a "van", but I have my doubts. They can implant devices somewhere, and turn it on remotely--I theorize. Maybe today they decided to give it a rest. Whatever.

There's good news out there, and maybe I'm too much on a downer to get all happy about it. The reason being that Manchin and Co. could flip any time, and all this good stuff that's happening could be flushed right on down the drain.

It is good news that parents are taking charge of their children's education and development. They are challenging this leftist garbage, and I think that is great.

Bongino was talking about the Chinese virus thing and how it is being confirmed. That's great, but you know what? We should have known that all along. Yes, it is great news, but it is really not going to slay this dragon if we don't get stuff like this when we need it.

Also on Bongino, there was this thing he thought was hilarious that he shared as he closed down the show for the day. Some dude in a video meeting didn't seem to think to get dressed appropriately, so when he stood up for some reason, managed to reveal that he was in his undies. A woman at that meeting was shown with her mouth opening up wide in shock at what this guy did. That was mildly amusing, but sad at the same time. People like this are running the show now. Sad.

It's Friday, so it may be appropriate to say something light hearted, but it is kinda hard these days. Civilizational rot is catching up to us, I do believe.

Anyway, that's the way it is, in my best Cronkite imitation. That was a different time and a different country. Keep up the good fight, and get back at it tomorrow. Hopefully, we'll all still be here.

It's getting a bit tiresome to hear people using their premises

The previous post had an embedded video, and it got pasted up here without a review. Yeah, I was so happy to do it. But the language is too soft. Way too soft.

We are getting some pretty harsh language thrown at us, but that is not right. We on the other hand are told to shut up, or if we are allowed to speak, we must tone it all down.

In the midst of telling how these guys are being treated, the narrative fails to realize that he is using THEIR language and probably THEIR premises. Somehow, this has to stop.

I stopped the video as soon as I heard "mainstream media". They aren't "mainstream". If people had a choice, they'd choose something else to watch besides these Pravda-impersonators that we give the euphemism of "mainstream", which is entirely unjustified by the facts.

The narrator did use better language to describe it as a dungeon in DC. I would use language that was a lot tougher like-- DUNGEON in the EVIL EMPIRE GONE WEST TO DC instead.

If they call you racist, call them "communist traitorous lying sobs" for that is what they are. If they object, then let them know in no uncertain terms will the namecalling go by any longer.

It's small things like this that cause the conditions to grow into what they have become. If the other side wanted unity and calm, they wouldn't use that sort of hateful language on the rest of us for merely disagreeing with them. If they really wanted order, they wouldn't have labelled riots as mostly peaceful protests.

If they want trouble, then there is going to have to be trouble. Talking of peace while they are trying to stomp on you only gets them to laugh at you.

Another video option

If cannot stand Youtube, then stop using it. There are options, providing this works.

Looks like embedding video in web pages isn't that hard.

If you use YouTube now, it is only because you are lazy.

If anybody doubts that the GOP is a bunch of Quislings

Seems that there's evidence from a leak that Manchin is trying to organize a Quisling faction to approve all of the Democrats' radical legislation, while pretending to preserve the filibuster.

Quite a neat trick. They can get 60 votes, that's how. If that don't tell you what is really going on, then nothing can.

We are going to be betrayed. There is one thing you can count on besides death and taxes--- the GOP Quislings will betray.

It appears that the rest is just a smokescreen.

I'm baaaaaaaaack, but for what?

The "van" is back this morning.

For those of you who are in denial, let me explicate a bit further. Since they aren't going to arrest me now, the idea is to do that later. Now is not the time, evidently.

Yes, I think you people are in denial. I say that because I was in denial. But being determined to be in reality, as opposed to this "Matrix" of lies, I am seeing this again this morning, I am convinced that it is the utter truth.

Being that, what is to be done about it? Right now, nothing but protest. But it is like the lamb protesting being consumed by the wolf. It is weak, but it may be better than nothing. Maybe it MIGHT alert the rest of the sheep that the wolf is on the prowl. Yes, and the wolf is real, and very, very dangerous.

But being sheep, you are going to stay "safe" in your denial. You hope to be eaten last, like the saying about appeasement used to go. It used to be a lesson that was learned, but a lot of lessons are being "unlearned" and "deprogrammed" Katie-Couric-style so as to disarm you from defending yourselves.

So this isn't for the sheep. The sheep gotta sheep. They are hopelessly out of it. As for me, I must have decided to jump into the shit a long time ago. I think this "van" has been around for a long time, and I have been under surveillance for a long time. The only purpose of this to make me aware of the surveillance. They are that arrogant now. They are not worried about being exposed. It only makes the sheep even more scared. They prefer scared sheep.

They can watch me anytime they want. That's the message being given. Now the point of this is that this tells them that the message is received. Actually it has been received for a lot longer than just yesterday, and they must know that too.

We used to have a thing called the Fourth Amendment that was to limit this kind of thing from Uncle Sam, who has turned into Mr. Hyde of Dr. Jekyll's persuasion. The government was lot more benign, but now it is intensely malignant. Because there is no reasonable cause for doing this surveillance, other than to intimidate me into silence or complicity of some kind.

The sheep get disturbed with guys like me. This is bothersome and "crazy talk" to them. They don't want to hear it. They don't want to think it. For do so would obligate to do something about what's going on and they aren't about to obligated to do a damned thing. So they won't.

As for me, well they must have plans or they wouldn't be here, right? What the hell do they think they are watching over? That's my first reaction. I figured "Keystone Cop time". What kind of threat am I anyway? Only a threat to them in that people could read this, and it may wake their stupid asses up to this kind of shit.

I've been at this for over 10 years now, and these people are hardly any more awake than they were then. It is somewhat different, but the pace is so slow that it is going to be way, way too damned late before people figure out that they are on the menu for the BIG BAD WOLF.

I have been quite harsh on the GOP. For good reason, I think. Their only reason for existence is to convince the sheep that they are really on the job protecting them against these ravenous wolves. But they aren't. That makes them collaborators of the Quislings infamy. Yes, what they are doing is even worse than the Democrats. They are the "muscle" to keep you quiet why they ram the plane into the World Trade Center on 911.

You should know that the Democrats are enemies because that's the way they talk. It gets meaner and meaner by the day. But being sheep, you listen to Il Duce tell you that you are free, but look at what they are doing. Don't listen to the lies.

Well, I can do this all day, but what good would it do? You people will never learn because you will never listen. Look at Fox. Fox's ratings are higher than CNN's, but so what? Fox lies to you too.

Face up to it. We are in the middle of the infamous creek without the paddle. The only possible hope is to rouse the sheep from their slumber, but is that even possible now?

Ten to one, you think this is paranoid ranting. But that is your sheep inside you talking. If you aren't totally gone, something of this may ring true for you. Let us hope so, because we don't have much time.
