POLITICS, THE PAST, LOST CIVILITY, THE "DRAIN"

I hear more complaints now from the main line media that the natives are growing restless, rude and oftimes CRUDE in the expression , opinion of the White House, Republicans and all things contrary to November 8th outcome.
    Disgusting is more like it.


    I became sentient during the Eisenhower years. He, the Chairman of the Board, was a gentleman, in control, and spoke with manners, courtesy and strength. What he said, you could believe. He brought our troops home from Korea. He ended a cruel recession by simply telling Americans it's time to go buy refrigerators if you need them. We did. Everyone felt safe when he was in charge. He was in control.
    That ended with Kennedy.
    Double that with President Johnson, drugs everywhere, the Communist infiltration well into the core of our society, insurrection in the government and downright incivility from some American citizens that drove the rest of us nuts.
    The 70's got crude, rude, the "kids" grew out of control, draft dodgers who previously were a national scandal became almost an ideal, one becoming a president.
Riots common place, Abortion was the law of the land, police morphing into public enemies thanks to rebellious
press - it seemed our societal norms were on the verge of being upset.
    Ronald Reagan saved the culture by reverting us back to our national, mainstream senses with two terms of common sense administration, followed by his Vice President's full term following him.
    James Carter, peanut farmer was later cast as possibly the worst president
the nation had ever endured.
    Republican president George Bush had two terms of the most outrageous press biased against him since Abraham Lincoln. Still, the public spoke loudly in his favor, voting him in twice.
    The tone of American Society had steadily circled the drain in the last twenty years, partially due to the type of candidate running for national and regional office: their educational backgrounds continue to deteriorate  as expressed in reports on high school and college school standards further collapse in score levels.
     Language, comprehension, and general attitude of our representatives sure reflect a one-sided and partisan view of the world and lesser non-partisan view engendered by political dogma, and not open minded exploration or greater academic adventure.
     Hence, stupidity seems to win the day.

CHILDISH FITS, TANTRUMS FROM NOV 8TH

....and on and on it goes. Michelle Obama said on her husband's election " at least I'm proud of my country." I was shocked, as were other Americans.
    I live and learn. Now it is me who is ashamed of my country, no longer proud of some of my fellow citizens: take for instance:
    The Mayor of New York, I don't dare speak his name. Mr. Sanctuary City. And, all the other clown Mayors who voice the same ruptured legal principals " I CHOOSE TO UPHOLD SOME LAWS, VIOLATE OTHERS AT WILL." So be it. The Federal Government chooses (I hope) to withhold federal funds from your cities until you comply.
    ex-Pres Obama once threatened seniors with, " I can't guarantee Social Security checks this August." Hmm.
    Actor Samuel L. Jackson falls somewhere SOUTH of racist with his radio TV spot spot violently (he's good at that) spewing diatribe at President Trump about...you guessed it, " he's a racist."  We're all impressed with Hollywood actors expressing their political opinions against Republican presidents, aren't we, Jane Fonda, the much over=exposed Madonna, and the "girls" from the violently sexual movies of late.
    Even Fox News Shepard Smith seems to be sniveling out some swipes against POTUS recently on his daily telecast. Of course, Fox walks a fine line with current administration, fair and balanced as it were. But with Smitty, of late, I've wanted to ask him, " what's your beef with Trump?"
    The Tax Day demonstrations all across the land? Who knows, my theory is this - pry open their voting records and I'll bet $5 for every Republican you find in every one of those crowds. Gut feeling is, the crowds are a set-up driven by the sour grapes Hillary-lost crowd and we're gonna belly ache until the country rolls over and kvetches.
    Trump hasn't been in office 4 months, probably just found the coffee pot and mens room in the White House, been working 16 hours a day and already the sour-puss Democrats are hounding the hell out of him.
     REMEMBER THE TOUGH TIME OBAMA HAD HIS FIRST SIX MONTHS IN OFFICE?  REMEMBER THE REPUBLICAN INSPIRED RIOTS?
     Yeah,.....I don't either.

SAMEUL L JACKSON SHOOTS HIS MOUTH OFF, FIRST AMENDMENT - OK, HAVE AT IT

The black actor from the movies best known for showing anger, resentment, hostility and violence (don't think so? Google his movies. Try to find on that didn't involve guns). Shooting people, or racial strife aimed at.......guess who? Yup, us - white people.
     That First Amendment cuts both ways, Sir, so - here's my two cents as my mother used to say. Ok, subject at hand this morning it was aired his interview about his Ad that will run escoriating Prez Trump as a (get ready) " racist." Yup, he called our President a racist. Here is a guy who is quoted as telling black community before Obama's second election, " Wake The F%^#" Up!!"
     And to him President Trump is a racist.
     In this country, the majority of people who violently disagree with someone's rude, angry and offense behavior usually vote WITH THEIR WALLETS. That is the country I was born into, Sam.
     As for me, this is just another drop from the "we're pissed off that Hillary Lost" crowd. Drip-drip-Oh,show us your taxes Don, crowd. It will NEVER end. But, Mr. Trump, if I guess right, will ignore this heavy mass of pestilence and keep on, keeping on. Remember citizens, he is NOT a politician - he's a CEO. Different breed of cat.
     By the way, Mr Jackson, WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLET?
