WHAT'S WRONG IN AMERICA?--- WATTER'S WORLD KNOWS

To me, it is as simple as that. Jesse Watters broadcast on Fox has declared the needle in the haystack, the Nigerian in the fuel supply, the skunk in the works: our educational system for our young people.
Why? Who is plotting to take out the meat of education in our schools? And why are the doing it? My mother used to kid me and say it was a Russian Plot. Even Chem Trails, a Russian plot.
     Don't think so? Tune in on O'Reilly some night and catch Watter's World where he cruises the campuses of America or, walks the streets of modern America and asks such brain-draining questions such as " Who won the Civil War?" (Harvard Student) - answer, " GERMANY!!" (and she belted it out like she was proud of it, too). My favorite was " Name three countries in Europe." Rutgers kids came up with England, France and Nebraska.  We no longer teach History in our sch
     The fact that 98% of the children that followed Bernie Sanders around screaming for his brand of the new America (Socialism), couldn't find the definition in Funk & Wagnals, nor understand the financial devastation in 1938 that fell on Germany. And, the Socialist harvest after the war when they took barrels full of Deutch Marks and burned them for heat as they were worthless.
     Much of the political and economic instability we face here at home today will be all to familiar to older Americans who remember the pre=war atmosphere in the late 1930's before Germany went south on us.
     Socialism: Ask a friend what it's like to live in Denmark. (80% tax brackets), but the good news is , the government comes around to tie bibs on you when you eat soup, wipes your chins, does your dishes, gas and oils your cars, and tells you just about everything else you should be doing with your life.

THE NATIVES ARE REVOLTING........

I think it was Dr. Livingstone that said that once, upon being discovered in the jungles by an English colleague hunting feaverishly for him.     I feel that way.
     Almost daily now, there is reported a riot, somewhere in my country, guns blazing, bodies dropping, Police and apparently white citizens dying. Here's what I am thinking. What's going through my head. Maybe it has nothing to do with reality, but it's what is going on in my hand divisin among us.ad and heart: IT'S TIME TO BUY AN AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN.  and, while I'm at it, a handgun with a large caliber that has stopping power, like a .44 caliber. As a lone citizen of my country, I feel helpless and abandoned by a government who, in my opinion has done little or nothing to cast some sort of comfort and or protection out over the citizenry during the stressful time of terror among us.
      I went out the other night for some of my favorite donuts at Circle K. I do that a lot. Normally, nothing scares me, I'm 6'3" and 220 pounds. My wife said before I left, " carry your gun." My wife HATES GUNS. She's never said that before - ever.
 Had I assessed Tucson, Arizona the wrong way? One hour I $got back, there was a shooting on the west side of the tracks, 1 dead, 1 wounded.
     Now it occurred to me with the randomness of it all, that I could be walking into the next black on white ambush in a shopping center, nut=ball type ISIS machine gun party at the local Y, without even knowing what's next.....
     The Boy Scout Motto: BE PREPARED. I now carry a gun. Always. And I advise every one of you to carry, two. We're down to the knuckles, folks.

On the Brink of a Revolt?: DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA;

On the Brink of a Revolt?: DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA;: THIS IS THE MAN AMERICA ELECTED TO LEAD US. In the middle of a terrorist invasion he wants to DISARM  US.  WHY?

DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA;

THIS IS THE MAN AMERICA ELECTED TO LEAD US. In the middle of a terrorist invasion he wants to DISARM  US.  WHY?

THE YEAR OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY......

What can the average citizen walking the streets of America do about the world swirling about hi

m, do?
     The nation of Greece is about to circle the drain financially and the " news " here is it might, could, "we'll see" if it affects us. Past US history ( the 1929 Depression 25% unemployment) still ragged around the edges here, banks shut, money gone, people living in lean-to's, cars, etc, still fresh in 0lder peoples' memories. I hear talk in my country of withdrawing money and hiding it in the mattress. No kidding.
     No one I know believes anything they hear about Iran "peace talks" on the nuclear issue. Not one. The television stations stake out their talking points, but the truth lies in history, and individuals and what they've said and done in the past. Who do you believe?  I do not trust my own government, from the president on down. and that includes the Supreme  Court. Congress couldn't organize a Sunday Picnic.
     I trust John Bolton, George Will and Charles Krauthammer.
     Obama is cutting military strength just when we are going to need it. Danger, Will Robinson, Danger. China's economy as well as Greece are shining examples of the failure of what the president should be touting to all of America - the failure of Socialism. SHOULD BE TOUTING.
     But, being a socialist, he won't.

The American Government Under (De)Construction

 Let's analyze: so far in about six years, I can account for the Health and Human Services spending (untolled ) millions of dollars in just setting up a computer system for Health Care for the government and "Obamacare." The job to do it never went out to bid. The contractor has a hazy past, the press never did a follow up on it, who were they? The IRS..hmm. Lois Lerner failed to turn over emails, documents required by Senate subcommittees even under subpoenas blocking legal investigations. Several IRS big wigs, ditto, and then resigned under " clouds of suspicion."
     Subsequent IRS operations, loss of taxpayer records, loss of work hours to employee playing during work time on house computers as reported in press stories, then recent explosions regarding the loss of 20 million taxpayer files to hackers and IRS officials waving their hands in confused desperation over the matter.
     The official response from IRS manager Koskinen? Arrogance mixed with mumbled and vague I don't knows to the Senate subcommittee who subsequently have done nothing about it.
     Meanwhile I believe the Office of Management and Budget audited somewhere near $100 million dollars in over payments to either dead people, welfare recipients and over payments to some government contractors who deliberately over billed Uncle Sam. " We are investigating."
     Then there is the recent hacker of 200 million PERSONAL FILES from OPM, another government agency. That's everything they know about us, social security cards, credit cards, your grandmother's birthday to your kids prison records. EVERYTHING. And what do we hear from our government? Zip? Zero. Nada from the White House. That's because they don't know what to do about it. God forbid the Chinese attack        
         Then, there was the woman testifying before a Senate subcommittee this week. One Senator asked, do you need help.  "yes, please, thank God," and by the next morning, she's retracting everything she said and hiding under her desk. Government pensions are hard to come by these days.
     The San Francisco killing of a beautiful young American girl has turned into a political finger pointing game of " he said-she said" as the INS, ICE, SFO, sheriff's department seek to shift blame behind the cold, dead body of their collective guild
     The girl is dead. The Illegal Alien is an ILLEGAL ALIEN, not an undocumented Democrat.
     On retrospect, in spite of what the president says, nothing in the government seems to work. To me, every time I see someone on the national level making a pronouncement, I tend to believe the opposite. This is the first time in my life I AM NOT PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN, with apologies to Michelle Obama.

BILL COSBY -- IF it's true

I grew up on the Cos. I watched every one of his TV episodes with whats his name, Culp, was it " I Spy?" The TV series way back when. He was funny, serious, I thought a knock down drag out comedian, I spent the front end of my young life, laughing My guts out at his humor. Cos was dynamite because he was a cross-over, he could talk to all cultures, black, white, neighborhood kids in North Philly and Congress.

    Everybody listened. I listened. The death of his son hit him hard and we all felt badly for him.
    Then this thing happened. The ....molestation stories, RAPE stories. I can't even say it without choking. He's acting so strange now, different.
    Fifty women, almost all white, have come forward with about the same story, pretty close, anyway. As I recall, I don't think many of them know each other. I have to admit, I'm losing my faith in Bill Cosby. Each time a camera catches him, his wife and another woman in public, his frown is a mile wide, and his wife smiles broadly.
   I'm sad when I think of the broader implications: IF IT'S TRUE....IF. It means two extraordinarily sad things. Bill thought so little of himself, he had to drug fifty women in order to take sexual advantage of them. His public image was that of a gentleman.
   It meant he felt that was the only way he could ever be good enough to gain their trust, and access to their bodies. How devastatingly sad for him.
   Next, if it did happen, the damage to those fifty women will never be tolled. The destruction of their personal sense of safety, femininity, their emotional stability in personal relationships may have been affected or destroyed. Who knows if some, a majority or all of them have been in therapy as a result.
   One hopes not.
