Self-Destruction, by Proxy

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

We are witness to some amazing changes going on about us, not the least of which is the race to total irrelevance by the Democrat Party. We know this because it’s true nature has been revealed in its defeat: it is the hateful and intolerant Liberals who are authoritarian and lawless and represent the true threat to our liberties. It’s not Trump, the Republicans or conservatives.

The presidential campaign of Donald Trump was temerarious and his electoral victory threw the entire political establishment into convoluted paroxysm of rage, despair, spitefulness and hate, doubtless engendering the democrats suicidal pact of self-destruction, not primarily of themselves but of our country as well. Their self-destruction is their business. It cannot be allowed that they take our country with them. The paroxysm continue even to this day.

We cheered the DNC’s leadership meeting in Atlanta knowing full well who we wanted the DNC to select as replacement for Debbie Wassermann Schultz, Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Ws), but feared that saner minds could intervene and arrest the process of decay.  Alas, It was Tom Perez, former Secy. of Labor and Obamas choice, who prevailed over the black Muslim Representative from Wisconsin. But, we are informed that Hillary Clinton pushed for him too and some in the mediocre media opined that “the fix was in” for Tom Perez. So, the question now is: who is running the DNC, or who will be, and is the democrat party still as corrupt as always?

Barak Obama with his Organizing for America (OFA), formerly Acorn, is organized and wants to be calling the shots for the Democrat Party, never mind that he single-handedly destroyed the party nation wide. Hillary, who couldn’t muster enough grass roots to get herself elected, apparently thinks she’s still relevant. I see a debilitating fight coming. The solution to their problem does not lie in slavishly embracing a continued role for the Planned Parenthood’s infanticide factory’s or re-empowering unions, as Tom Perez said in his acceptance speech. It lies in reclaiming its lost base with a believable agenda on local levels everywhere.

Apart from that, in its death throes, the Democrat Party has revealed its inner demons and for awhile, they will remain the coastal nuisance party. The feckless former Democrat Senator from Nevada, Harry Reid, gifted the Congress with what he considered a rule that would keep Progressives in power forever, the “nuclear option,” and it’s about to blow up in their faces.

As the nuisance party, it is indeed being a nuisance by hindering the confirmation of Donald Trumps selections for his cabinet. It is time for Majority leader Mitch McConnell to go all out with the “nuclear option,” install Trumps picked professionals and get this country moving again, and right now. He has been given the opportunity to kill the wounded Democrat beast that long ago abandoned any pretense of Americanism. Just do it Mitch, for America. Kill it and git ‘er done!

The destruction process, like a flood across the plain, will sweep away with it many venerable institutions like the Hollywood Motion Picture Industry. Actors and celebrities who think they are possessed of a higher political acumen simply on the basis of their notoriety, still presume to lecture Americans on the nature of Americanism. They have no clue and we know it.

Celluloid privilege, in the wrong hands, is more destructive to the true principles of Americanism today than ever before. During WWII, Hollywood was “all in” in its contribution to the war effort against fascism. Today, they have become the fascists propagandists!  We cannot rest. The fight is just beginning. We must stand and deliver. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (26 Feb 17)

Misusing Language

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

Democrats are practiced in the art of circumlocution. They say one thing then claim they meant another. They change word definitions to fit their narrative, hide them in a flurry of rhetoric and then shamelessly move on to the next lie or problem they create.

In case they didn’t get the message, they have also lost three elections in a row. Judging by the incredulous, vituperative reaction to Trumps presidency, now being harmlessly showered down on a Trump who doesn’t really care, I think the Democrats days are probably numbered. Trump vanquished them, completely and he sweeps on while they’re trying to figure out their next plot to undermine him. Their message doesn’t resonate any more. Donald Trump was elected by Americans who believe his policy proposals will reverse years of economic decline brought on by, among other things, Obama’s overregulation, overspending and mismanagement.

The rising level of opprobrium belongs to the Democrats alone. Their propaganda machine, the MSM, is itself now under serious attack by Trump while it flails away at the wrong issues. Trump doesn’t play the game their way. By ‘tweets’, he chums them and they rise to his bait. To us, he speaks simply, in clear words and then follows up on his pledges and they can’t keep up. All this tawdry unpleasantness simply because the Left don’t know what is and is not the truth anymore, unless it’s the truth that fits their socialist agenda. We’re not listening!

Here’s an example of media driven fake news. The Weekly Standard, still clinging to their “Never Trump” mantra, would have us believe that the mass State Department resignations of senior officials must signal a loss of confidence in Trumps administration. An interesting point, since Trump hasn’t hardly even got started yet. In fact, their resignations are pro forma when a change of administrations occurs. As presidential appointees, they serve at the pleasure of the President, not the Civil Service. The resignation letters submitted by Obama’s appointees, Progressive all, after the election, were legal and accepted immediatelyTrump was sworn in. They weren’t fired! Interestingly, the last time the US Government experienced such a mass loss of employees involved in foreign diplomacy was at the Little Big Horn.

Such change Is good for the government, good for realigning our foreign relations priorities and good for setting the parameters for knowing who is really for us and who isn’t. Doubtless, good relations with other governments, including the several sanctuary cities and counties in America, are critical to our own security as a country. American’s see that, the Left doesn’t and frames their dissent in terms of hate words, i.e.: we are racist, homophobic, islamaphobic, & etc. Their power to instill fear with twisted language is fast ebbing.

These Short Takes essays you read are exercises in anti-circumlocution. One can show a level of intellectualism without verbosity. When published, they are limited to filling one page with basic truths, free of peripheral nonsense that say’s nothing. They are direct and to the point! To achieve that end, I always have at hand three essential books: a book of Synonyms, a Thesaurus and a Dictionary. Searching for the best word(s) that succinctly explains my thoughts, eliminates the boring and mind numbing verbosity that the Left uses to explain their ‘truths’. Winston Churchill is my literary example. I confess also, that I am occasionally aided by a friend who apparently has a dictionary too.

What do you call 68 democrats who refuse to attend a Presidential inauguration?….. A good start!  Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, Let’s help Trump make America Great again. Trump can’t do it alone. Let him lead. (27 Jan 2017)

Feminist Hooliganism

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

As the shocking photos of the Women’s DC march following Trumps inauguration are now being published, it is apparent that modern women are much filthier than modern men, in their thoughts, words and probably deeds. I’ve never been accused of being a prude but I am totally shocked by the cultural sickness I read on the signs these women carried in their perambulation alone the streets of our nations Capital. More shocking was the recorded vocals of their chants and demands, their sole focus on female body parts. Ashley Judd, if you listened to her crude, screaming remarks on the speakers dais, has for me, descended into the abysmal depths of obscurity as a non person. I’m sure she doesn’t really care, but I do.

What we see signals a loss of whatever it was of the sacred place once held by women in American society. These Mall creatures are the very personification of the sick swamp dwellers from the primordial muck of paleolithic America, once the habituates of Red Light Districts.

And what was their message? I don’t know, really. Everything had to do with sex. Apparently most of them haven’t encountered muslim men yet who has a totally different take on what a infidel woman’s role is in his society. These women had better prepare themselves and their daughters, to spend some long hours daily on their backs, and not at times of their choosing. It might be suggested that a suitable occupation for these bedeviled creatures, given their desire to publicly flaunt their genitalia, a career in a brothel.

This madness has even spread abroad. In Spain, a known nutter of their feminist movement, at a grand opening of a Wax Museum, half naked, immediately walked up to the new Trump wax  figure and grasped its crotch. Wow! What a statement, what a thrill that must have been!

One of President Trump’s promises was to return respect for law enforcement. It should also include the a return of self-respect. Primarily, this woman’s march on DC is the cutting edge of George Soros’ plan to foment anarchy on American streets. These women are nothing but chattel to Soros’ plans and will be destroyed as the useful idiots they are. This march was preplanned and paid for. Even the fingerprints of Islam has revealed themselves in the preparations.

The small crimes committed on the streets must be punished, not by a wink and a nod or a slap on the hand, but by real penalties including some time in the slammer. Burning a US flag, for example, has been defended by the US Supreme Court as freedom of speech. Arson hasn’t! That applies to trash cans and tires too. Police departments need to know they can now apply a vigorous campaign against street hooliganism, simply to protect righteous people, children and the elderly so they too can use the streets without fear of being attacked or humiliated by some incoherent leftist screaming abuses in their faces. All of this because their candidate lost.

Hillary tweeted: “Thanks for standing, speaking & marching for our values at the Woman’s March. Important as ever. I truly believe we’re always Stronger Together.”  I would be interested in knowing exactly what she means by “our values.” I don’t think she really knows but her personal misery can best be fed by Tweeter. Hillary’s not out of the woods. Jason Chaffetz, (R-UT) and chairman of House Over Site Committee, said the investigation of her activities could take years. In political speak, that means not until the lawyers have drained her of whats left of her   fortune. She might have to return to redneck Arkansas. One wonders, is she, as a former first lady, still entitled to Secret Service protection in prison? Just asking!

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (01/24/17)

Bad Trends Coming

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

I’m becoming a bit concerned that Fox News Sunday’s Chris Wallace, is edging to the ‘dark side.’ Today’s interview (01/22/17), nay challenge, of Trumps Chief of Staff, Reince Priebus, was a tawdry example of combatively exploring the trivial to energize the petty, in order to trivialize Donald Trump’s presidency by giving credence to pure nonsense. Who cares? The Leftists do!

The MLK bust issue, a chance opportunity taken by a pool reporter who “tweeted: “Trump ordered the MLK Bust removed,” because he, the reporter, couldn’t see it. It was purposely designed to start tongues wagging on the same level, or worse, as when Obama handed the bust of Winston Churchill back to the British Ambassador on his first day in office. If you can’t see something, wait for it. If it’s still not there ask about it before tweeting a “gotcha” to the world. I would suspect that guy will have his WH press credentials taken. Who needs him?

The media doesn’t understand Trumps push back on these small issues and so they waste valuable Sunday airtime talking about nothing. The same with the head count. In two more days, who will even care unless the media chokes themselves trying to keep it alive? The end result, Trump will still be president and the press will still remain untrusted.

Hit Trump and expect to be hit back. In this era of divided loyalties, no politician can stand the free hits the press constantly delivers against Conservatives. George W. Bush, had a policy of not responding and look where that got him. Obama blamed him for every Democrat congressional failure in the Americas political and economic scene since the last two years of Bush’s final term. Trump isn’t going to stand for that.

Then comes the vagina vigilantes, the woman’s march, most of ‘em white feminist distraught that Hillary lost the election, demanding freedom. From whom, from what? Looking at the close ups of the feminist crowd, no two signs they held, said the same thing, One group wanted free sex without consequences, another wanted state paid contraception, another group demanded abortions, it was painful. Even street interviews revealed some really stupid young women.

It did not go unnoticed that the alleged feminist celebrities seized control of the microphones to proclaim their anti-Trumpism. The odious and scraggy Madonna, in her usual profanity laced profile, screamed out to the assembled women her vile thoughts and demands. So did the beautiful Scarlett Johansson and sadly, the once sweet and lovely Ashley Judd felt compelled to join the fray and smear herself with anarchist shame. Who got to her one wonders?

Why is celebrity granted a free pass? These people are basically stupid about events, guided only by a mistaken philosophy that abhors men except when its time to get impregnated, if a machine can’t do it first. Who is Alicia Keyes and Janelle Monae? I’ve never heard of them and didn’t recognize them when they spoke on live TV but they had a stupid message to proclaim and a platform to proclaim it.

The first feminist, Gloria Allred, now an aging old hag, screamed out that “if Trump registers Muslims, then we will all register as muslims.” This woman is certifiable. If it’s that important to her to welcome Jihadists, shouldn’t she be wearing a hijab now? If she really wanted to be a muslim woman, perhaps she should practice first by living in Saudi Arabia for a year. A beating once or twice a day would do well for her reeducation. She might even beg Donald Trump to get her out of there. Naw, he shouldn’t waste his time on silly trivia.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now. go get ‘em! (01/22/17)

Those Pesky IC Reports

Opinion

Opinion by George McClellan:

The media, including fair and balanced Fox news, has bought into the Left’s narrative that Russia gave the election to Donald Trump by ‘hacking’ the DNC, revealing the DNC’s secrets thus costing Hillary Clinton the Presidency. The IC Reports said so! The biggest secret the DNC had to hide was its own incompetence protected as it was, by a body guard of arrogance, lies, campaign failures and deceit.

The Sunday Talk shows do not help in seeking the truth. The media is in the business of collecting ad revenues with “gotcha” points and firsts. It’s a sad business. The direction of Chris Wallace, on today’s Fox News Sunday (01/08/17), the first talk show of the day, is to insist that the interviewee, in this case Reince Priebus, admit that Trump does accept the Intelligence Communities Report or, if not, agrees that the Intelligence community’s report, that Russia indexed hacked the election, was accurate and accepted by all the IC agencies. The premise here is how can Trump, a totally non-political person, even doubt the product of the Intelligence community?  Priebus, to his credit did not permit himself to be ensnared by Wallace’s carefully crafted talking point questions and presented counter-points generally ignored by the main stream media and certainly ignored by Chris Wallace in rebuttal.

On Meet the Press, hosted by Chuck Todd, quite the opposite is true. Todd interviewed Democrats and acolytes from their leftist pool of media propagandists, who are already prepared to support the Left’s narrative that Trumps election must be invalid because those nasty Russians hacked the election.

The line of questions from the interviewers I watched, totally ignore the real crime that was revealed, the mishandling of US Classified documents on Hillary Clinton’s private servers and their subsequent exposure to Russian hacking by John Podesta’s laziness. The whole issue is driven by Hillary losing the election to a neanderthal and Obama’s late realization that his legacy is in danger. Time’s running out.

Nowhere on today’s shows, did I hear any comment about the interview of Representative Pete Hoekstra by Fox’s Megan Kelly the night before. Hoekstra, former House Intelligence Committee Chairman, shocked Kelly with his comments. Hoekstra, basically conducted his own forensic examination of the unclassified IC reports and found them wanting, opening the question of their authenticity.

He said the declassified report only represented the views of three intelligence agencies, not the claimed  seventeen. He also questioned why the DHS and the DIA were not co-authors of that report; why they did not have input, or why it lacked dissenting views, a normal procedure on high level reports of fungible data. Those are very important questions and they’re not being asked nor answered.

The declassified report, issued on 6 January, was an abridged version of a previous longer report ordered by Obama to conclude that Vladimir Putin did indeed order a hacking campaign to damage Hillary’s candidacy and promote Trump’s. Whoever the IC functionaries were who wrote the report, they expressed ‘high confidence’ in their conclusions but offered no evidence to support them. Evidence is hidden behind “protecting confidential sources and methods,” a trick used to avoid exposing real important information or worse, exposing the political plot to undermine Donald Trump. The timing of the disclosure, the clumsiness of its preparation, was clearly an attempt to provide Obama with an alleged intelligence report on Russian interference in our election that Obama could release prior to his leaving office. The goal, is to undermine the legitimacy of Trump’s election, pure and simple.

I couldn’t be less concerned were I reviewing an intelligence report or evidence of a murder, but all data, all information relevant to the issue must be supported by provable or substantiated evidence of its truth. In this case, lacking that, all we can conclude is the scheme is another pitiful, clumsy attempt by Obama, to maintain the illusion that his legacy matters, and will show him to be one of America’s great presidents.

If I were a conspiratorial type, I might think that IC agency insiders produced that sloppy report on purpose. I believe there are career employee’s in those agencies now willing to sabotage Obama’s legacy. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (08Jan17),

Wounded Beasts Are Dangerous

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

Unlike most wounded beasts, instead of retreating into the dark recesses of its own sick imagination to lick its wounds, the deranged Left is striking out blindly at its tormentors, those who snatched away its dream of possession, its absolute right to power. Lurking in the hidden depths of its own delusions, abetted by a similarly affected media feeding their angst, the Progressives still harbored a faint hope of thwarting the Trump mandate through suborning the Electoral College vote. Threats and intimidation not withstanding, It failed, miserably!

Still, Donald Trump must be on his guard. The book of tricks the Progressives carry with them to every fight includes deception, the extended hand of friendship, a particular weakness to which John McCain and Lindsay Graham are susceptible, dirty tricks, outright lies, fake news and media propaganda to delude, misinform and confuse, all while their other hand holds a club.

Right now, the ultra left-wing media is wielding its propaganda club of fake news. They would have us believe that all Americans were so “outraged” that the Russians hacked the election and gave it to Trump, that therefore the electors, in their righteous fury, were not obligated to vote for Donald Trump. Were these guy’s writing a movie script or smoking pot?

We are in a decades long struggle with the dark forces of totalitarism. Many Americans are just now beginning to realize that. No longer schooled in Western Civilization, the Humanities or Civics, the training necessary to establish firmly in the minds of Americas impressionable school children the real gift that is America, has been replaced with socialist dogma of you’re too dumb to know how to live, we’ll do it for you and, everybody gets a trophy.

Pay close attention to the next several months. The Progressives, never, ever concede, but will attempt, with sophistry, to delegitimize Trumps presidency using any stupid idea they can come up with to convince Americans he’s unfit for the hight office he holds and should, therefore, be impeached. This from people who have never earned an honest dollar let alone several billions.

They will try to associate him negatively, with Russian President Vladimir Putin. They will attempt to link Trumps choices for Cabinet positions and lower executive offices, to anything nefarious they can think of, like the false claims of Russian hacking. They’ll invent something. They have a deep bag of tricks from which they can draw, many used successfully in the past to demean, humiliate and destroy their opponent of choice at the time.

In two years, 2018, mid-term elections will find the hobbled and injured Progressives in a full court press to affect state elections in order to replace Republican lawmakers with their own commie toadies. Tea Party and grass roots efforts by Independent Republicans must stamp that out, immediately it rears its ugly head. Look for the signs, they are always visible.

On November 8th, American was gifted with a lucky break. Trump did it. I can even go so far as to suggest that Trump is God’s instrument. As a Judaeo-Christian nation, we simply cannot squander that gift by inattention to its protection and preservation. It is imperative that we remain alert because the beast is not dead. It lies coiled in it den awaiting the moment we forget or drop our guard or fail to re-strengthen the foundations of American Constitutionalism.

Our first enemy is corruption. It cannot be passed over or ignored, especially by our leaders. We put them there because they asked, and by God, they had better perform as we want, or else. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (20 Dec 16)

Are We Like the Romans?

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

We often talk about the fall of the Roman Empire, but we don’t do anything about it. Let me try. Most of us, me included, do not speak Latin or Greek so, if we are interested in reading the ancient philosophers whose writings helped form the basis of our western culture, we must rely on the interpretation of those classics by modern scholars who do understand how they apply to our modern world today. With that understanding, the parallels become frightening!

The worlds once greatest empire, the Roman Empire, extensively written about in the classics,  existed for over a millennia and covered a vast area of Europe and Africa. The strength of Its existence was its strong foundation based on Roman Law (the Constitution) until, for convenience, the law was circumvented, first by the Emperor (think Obama), then the powerful (think the Clinton’s), and then by anyone else who could get away with it (think the Democrats).

As a result, Roman Law weakened until it was inevitably ignored altogether and the once amending principles of public discourse turned into static positions as solid and unmovable as concrete, resulting in no agreement, no compromise and certainly no advancement. Sport, sensuous pleasure and dissipation were the compromise issues of the day to which all acceded.

Politically, respect for other opinions died and debate was supplanted by tribal loyalties where competitive arguments were only solved on the fields of combat. Here, we use the ballot box. The Romans, at first, absorbed other cultures making them Romans too including, later, the Barbarians (Germans, Celts, Huns) who really didn’t want to be Romans and worked to eventually undermine the Roman Republic. They too were absorbed until they turned on their protectors.

By comparison, today, many Americans, especially democrats, seemingly don’t want to be Americans any more and don’t want the rest of us to be Americans either. To bolster their positions, because America is bounded by two oceans, they import their own foreign barbarians (Islam) who definitely don’t want to be Americans and, are actually intent on introducing their own philosophy (Shariah Law) as Allah’s gifted principles for a happy existence for everyone.

In the end, the great Roman empire is now just Italy, a holiday destination. The former Greek empire of Alexander the Great, is now a bankrupt, motley little collection of islands immobilized at the hands German Bankers (the EU), the former barbarians of old, and Spain, once over run by Visigoths then Muslims, is barely hanging on to its own European identity.

Back then, issues were argued by oratory in public forums. Today, screaming barbarians disrupt Town Halls. The third actor in the play, the Mediocre Media has lost any pretense to objectivity and, by its own account, is attempting the realignment of the American mind along ideological lines it thinks we need to embrace, which includes the unlimited immigration that is bent on destroying our American democracy. They have altered the free flow of information and freedom of thought by believing it’s their responsibility to tell us what to think. They’re in a fight now!

Donald Trump promised he would drain the swamp of its corruption, I hope it includes the Mediocre Media. Trump, like the barbarians of old who lacking stealth were content to just bash in the helmets of anyone standing before them, is using his own weapons, like Tweets, to bash the Mediocre Media into submission. Ossified as they are, the MM will, in its turn, eventually succumb to the lessons of truth and learn its own lesson in objectivity. Only then can America become great again. We can’t, so long as the hounds are braying at our heels.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (28 Feb 17)

The Jewish Question

Opinion

Opinion by George McClellan:

The deranged radical left media, looking for any issue they can use to smear, derail or destroy  President Trump, have almost got their slavish followers believing that Trump is staging a pogrom against America’s Jewish community. Total made up nonsense.

We see increasing reports of actual, not fake, but actual attacks against synagogs, Jewish graveyards and individual Jewish business’s that lie outside the protection of their community, and it’s the so called neo-nazi white hate groups who are, without any evidence whatsoever, blamed. It is not Jews who paint swastikas on synagog walls. That is the radical Left’s constant meme against the white race, guilt by association by being white and therefore, anti-semitic.

A female Black Lives Matter leader at a western college, just last week, offered up the proposition that all white students should be required to wear a distinctive badge on their outer clothing alerting other students that they were “white” and therefore privileged and to be shamed. This is history repeating itself. Nazi Germany required Jews to wear a yellow Star of David on their outer garments for ease of rounding up to be sent to death camps.

The media chooses to ignore the facts that most attacks against religious groups here in America, especially Islam, have proven to have been staged by their own followers to garner a sympathetic response and reinforce claims of racism and Islamophobia. Except the Jews.

The Jews haven’t been caught doing this sort to thing, but Muslims have. Islam, which is decidedly anti-Semitic by the teachings of their Koran can, in their minds, commit about any crime so long as it advances Islam. Remember, Islam means ‘submission.’ It is not in the Jewish tradition anymore than the Christian one, to demand anyone’s submission upon pain of death.

In America’s big eastern cities, the Orthodox Jews, like the Italian’s, the Poles, German’s and Irish of the past century, are slowly dissipating into the fabric of American culture. It’s not gone by any means, and shouldn’t, because of all the ethnic groups that have come to this country, it is still only the Orthodox Jews that keep and protect their ancient culture and traditions.

But, Islam is also attempting to keep and maintain its ancient traditions, with a few other ones thrown in like hanging or precipitating homosexuals off the roofs of buildings, beheading people who offend Allah, demanding total subservience by their women, honor killings of apostates and chopping off the hands of thieves. These guy’s don’t fool around.

Judaism survives because it has melded quietly into the American fabric based on its many centuries of experiencing anti-Semitism in other countries. Maintaining a low profile helps it to be be ignored. Not the case with Islam, whose advocates come screaming at us “Allah-u Akbar” demanding we accept their ideologies on danger of being labeled Islamophobics, being hacked to death on the spot or gang bludgeoned into submission. What a lovely religion of peace it is.

Thank God for Donald Trump. His daughter Ivanka, converted to Judaism when she married, and her three children will be raised in the Jewish faith. End of argument. Trump also ended Obama’s slavish devotion to Islam in the White House. Obamas rules of fifteen minutes of silence whenever the call to prayer is made, and special places for Muslims in the WH to pray undisturbed (there must have been a lot of ‘em), are history. America is not muslim but, until we recognize the invasion for what it is, that prospect lingers as a potential truism. Remember freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!

Draining the State Department Swamp

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

The departures of the top management from Obama and Kerry’s State Department is a welcomed step forward in draining the swamp. These Quislings were the Departments “top brass,” Obama appointed acolytes place into positions to oversee the stonewalling of the court ordered releases of Hillary’s emails and the editing of potentially incriminating data contained therein, specifically her unauthorized exposure of US Governments classified information on unsecured servers, a crime! Where’s the FBI when you need ‘em?

Practically, it’s inconceivable to deny these ‘managers’ did not know about Hillary’s secret server and its ability to be hacked, which it was, by at least five different foreign entities. The staff said nothing about it of course, because losing a very good ‘gig’ at the State Dept. by becoming a whistleblower can also be a killer but, that’s how some folks are able to sleep at night. To abandon ones personal integrity simply to keep a job that facilitates another’s criminal enterprise appears to be the norm in Washington politics under the political elite politicians of the corrupted government establishment.

These people had to be aware of the cash contributions of foreign governments to the “Clinton Foundation” that permitted “priority” meetings with Secretary Clinton. Those “Pay to Play” schemes were restricted to only the most powerful and corrupt leaders at the highest levels of any government who thought they needed to influence American policy. But once corrupted, the corruption spreads, even to those poor saps who need their jobs.

These Dept. of State 7th Floor ’managers’ also had to know about the fifty-five million of our tax dollars the State Dept. granted to Laureate Education, a for-profit college company that paid Bill Clinton more than sixteen million dollars to serve as its honorary “chancellor,” while they were then under investigation for fraud. There is also a six billion dollar loss to be accounted for. In any event, it appears the swamp there is, at last, being drained of its more dangerous leaders.

We haven’t heard yet what Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos plans are to drain her swamp. Expect massive hysteria to come from that quarter, all those thousands of highly educated illiterates who can’t hold any job but one in government, will certainly rally their base to warn us about the dangers of abandoning Common Core and the other such socialist programs. Socialists know that Education is the heart of the Marxist scheme to seize the minds of the America children for Socialist indoctrination. Saul Alinsky called for it! Like a vampire it needs a stake driven into its heart. Stand by for that one. It will be a really big fight.

The next big swamp to be drained is the EPA, arguably the biggest threat to American business, prosperity and constitutional freedoms since the coming of Islam. The Congress is moving rapidly, behind the scenes, while Trump takes the medias hits, under the Congressional Review Act to remove Obamas odious rules and regulations. They’ll be gone and no one will even know until they realize the yoke of regulation has been lifted from the shoulders of the American people. The relief will be staggering.

Rick Perry hasn’t been seated yet. His mandate is to collapse or even abolish, the really unnecessary Dept. of Energy. It’s not needed and it’s over staffed by thousands. The free market can handle our energy needs. Government only needs to keep ‘em honest. The media would have us think, Trumps administration is spinning out of control. Don’t believe it for a moment. Its biggest danger is being undermined by Obamas appointees still in place.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (20Feb17)

Propaganda vs. Reality 

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

The latest Super Bowl, the last game of the 2016 season, provided yet another opportunity for sheer mass Progressive propaganda. It did not fail to comply. We saw an Airbnb commercial of split screen faces, mostly third world people, morphing into divided faces of supposed Americans, all wanting to come to America. It was designed to burden us with the accusation that because of Trumps Immigration ban, fair process was denied. Oh, you hateful white people.

A 84 Lumber ad, designed to pull at our heart strings, showed a tired and ragged Latina with a small girl child, together, alone in an inhospitable wilderness, facing the impenetrable barrier of Trump’s hated wall, meandering endlessly along until it disappears forever over the far horizon. Suddenly, a massive door slowly opens allowing the exhausted duo to pass into the welfare state supported by the inexhaustible money supply of the American tax payer. Oh, joy, rapture! 

We are assuaged however, when we see a Latino man in his boss’s pickup truck loaded with workman tools, joyfully racing along the highway, apparently to meet his illegal immigrant family so they can live forever in the land of never ending happiness, diversity and multiculturalism; simple people looking to experience Americas tolerance, compassion, and diversity. Donald Trump, how could you be so damn mean and heartless? 

What was not shown was the reality. The thousands of men, women and children, their bodies racked with unspeakable diseases, lurking in the background ready to rush the gate soon as it was opened to claim victimhood and demand their free housing, free medical care and free schooling, because the “gringo’s” can afford it. Of course, many bring with them a deep desire to achieve but, also their diseases, drugs and crime. Embedded amidst the seething mass of our hopeless southern neighbors banging on the wall “yearning to be free,” are coteries of Islamic Jihadist yearning to establish an Islamic caliphate. 

Most Americans know that not every early immigrant was a German beer maker. Americans know that illegal immigration causes severe strains on social services and jobs but beer helps. People know that unvetted immigration’s has proven to be dangerous to local communities. The violence from Muslim immigrants, in lone wolf or organized attacks, cannot be tolerated any longer. Americans must realize that we can be compassionate without also being victimized. 

One wonders why the media and Democrats don’t accept the reality of young uneducated thugs joining gangs and young pregnant girls coming over to bare their children here so as to become American citizens. The US taxpayers must foot the bill for their children, and the imprisonment of their criminals. Too, the cost of the billions of dollars worth of drugs being smuggled into America by these hoards of organized crime invaders is too much to bare any longer.

We have long been conditioned for compassion by TV. Who doesn’t love watching little puppies and kittens at play, tongues flicking and tails wagging? I do, we all do, but our compassion can only go so far. Puppies and kittens demand nothing but our attention. We welcome that, we feed them happily and spend hundreds of dollars seeing to their good health. Then comes the hoard of diseased children doomed to poverty and, like little puppies, we take them in.

How’s this for reality: a few Smith & Wesson, Colt or Remington firearms ads offering solutions to our fears? Ads for training ranges with targets of running people? “Oh no you don’t! “ “That’s racist, Islamophobic, cruel and unAmerican. Enjoy the future. Thank a Democrat. Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (08Feb2017)  

Anarchy in Full View

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

UC Berkeley, California. It’s started again. The Left’s anarchists are running wild, burning, smashing university windows even beating up innocents they meet on the street in a fury of anti-Trump hysteria all because a conservative speaker was scheduled to make a speech to a sold out audience. “He might say something truthful, we can’t have that!”

While these hoodlums were not attired in neat uniforms echoing the “Brownshirt Stormtroopers,” of Germany’s Nationalist Socialist Party, their depredations are none the less exactly like the uniformed thugs that brought a civilized nation to its knees, murdered or drove out millions of hated Jews and other non conformists, and drove their country into the hands of a madman who pursued the Nazification of Germany, until he ultimately destroyed it.

Yesterday, Berkley residents experienced a 1938 Nazi style “Kristallnacht,” an event then, that should be a warning to us all, now. The Left are fascists, they’re crazy and they’re still out there polluting our schools. 1500 people tearing up the university and only one arrest made.

President Trump has thrown the solution to campus barbarism back onto the shoulders of the University’s leadership: fix it or he, Trump, will stop federal funding. That’s a great start! UCB gets about $370 million federal tax payer dollars per year. If Trump say’s it, he’ll do it.

Exactly what lesson should be learned here? The violent reaction of these far left fascists of Berkeley’s Student Union show us that our colleges and universities are no longer safe centers of liberal education. The free exchange of ideas where the opinions of speakers from different political and scientific persuasions are openly listened to and discussed, are things of the past. A new dark age of political oppression has rotted out the veneer of American higher education. Now, college students, deciding they are the law, have become completely misanthropic, hating all mankind, unless, of course, all mankind agrees with them, totally.

This was how it was in National Socialist Germany in the1930’s. One either agreed and went along with the party or one kept their mouths shut and stayed in the shadows lest they be carted off to Dachau as punishment for social deviation. What has not happen yet, in these violent disruptions, but probably coming soon, is the wanton and deliberate taking of lives. Innocent people will get hurt or killed if they even attempt to defend their property from these hooligans. To confront them on the streets will be a sure invitation to a beating or worse.

Presently, the fascist infection has mostly centered in the colleges and universities abetted by liberal administrators. The disease has spread into the halls of city councils and many state legislatures. Those in the federal government have just been routed but, wherever they are, their goal is the same, to enforce progressive dogma by threats, violence and intimidation if necessary, to any who fail to sufficiently embrace their demands.

The object of their affection was a Breitbart editor, Milo Yiannopoulos, who has been addressing schools around the country. But, the left said: “Although we object strenuously to Yiannopoulos’s views, he advocates white supremacy, transphobia and misogyny. It is rather harmful conduct to which we call attention in asking for cancellation of this event.”  When we hear words we don’t understand like transphobia and misogyny, be assured the speaker is a Liberal, socialist, fascist, commie and does not have our best intentions in mind, only theirs. You will obey, or…..!

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, got get ‘em! (02Feb2017)

The President

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

Donald Trump is the President. I reckon it’s all over but the shouting and they’ll be a lot of that. Friday, 20 Jan 2017, American history was made that will reverberate in the history books for decades. A single individual who could have as easily been cast as one of the hated 1%er’s forced himself upon the body politic as the savior of the American Dream, the indispensable leader of a Great America and the primary threat to all who represents the corruption in American politics, Lo, these many decades.

We have witnessed the slow encroachment on Americas traditional values by the freedom eroding concepts of multiculturalism and diversity, inclusion and political correctness and we haven’t known how to resist it, until now. Once, we were told resistance was futile. Now, resistance is inevitable while the dark forces of the corrupted class, in danger of being dislodged from their sinecures, tryi to regain their footing to reestablish themselves as necessary to the good functioning of government. We must be prepared to resist a return of the power class. A battle is surely coming. Judging by the vehemence of the street protests, its already begun.

Today, Donald Trump, a very rich New York real estate developer, the antithesis of our ideal of the hard working American, is President. He stood before us and said even he’s had enough, then set about working hard to snatch away the hopes and dreams of the ruling class, our over educated ‘betters’ who seek to rule, not by personal experience and hard work, but because they were taught somebody else’s beliefs (Marx) on the value of labor and who should reap its rewards. It is a renewed battle between Capitalism and Communism, for the moment, leaving the ruling class reeling in confusion. They will comeback. Watch out for the elite GOP too.

Donald Trump is the President! His short inaugural address, derided by the pundents as “dreadful,” short of content and an in your face threat to the existing ways of doing governments business, was a brilliant statement of purpose. We all heard it, loud and clear, even if the pundents and talking heads didn’t. They didn’t like what he said because it didn’t comport to the way things have always been done. They still don’t get it, but we do! Trump didn’t extend an olive branch across the aisle, he threatened their very existence. He told them to do their work on behalf of the American people, not themselves. Dangerous words indeed for an idealistic, novice politician who never held office before.

These are the same people who promised that Trump would never, ever be President, and well, here he is, our President facing his greatest obstacle, actually draining the swamp. We know what that means, and we know the swamp is a bit deeper, muckier and smelly than originally thought. We must help. Much of the far left media focuses their attention on the opinions of the Hollywood Leftist elites. That’s got to be a loser. None of them, not one, that threatened to leave America if Trump won the presidency, seem to have left yet. Why is that? We could help them by not buying tickets to their movies and concerts.

Realistically, we’re in for a rough ride now. The battle is joined, the concepts are clear and the moribund democrat party, leaderless, except for the most vocal of the Marxists within its ranks, will strike out at every opportunity to thwart the Presidents promises to Make America Great Again. It is our duty to help him. The rising tide of optimism sweeping across America is a rich field to be harvested. Every American should carry a copy of our Constitution in their pocket, learn it and use it at every opportunity to reeducate our failing youngsters. That’s where the battle will actually be joined. Prepare yourselves. This battle is not even close to being over.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, Go Get ’em! (21 Jan 2017)

Then, Along Came Trump

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

One can’t be too sure if Obama’s current round of main stream media interviews, praising himself and his eight years of administrative failures, is an exercise in ego exigency or a victory lap that only his warped mind could envision. One suspects the latter. Then, along came Trump.

The miasma of political corruption that accompanied Obama into office and has lingered over the swamp that is Washington DC, or more correctly, the creatures that have populated Washington DC for the past eight years, is quickly being blown away by the winds of populism.

We all know exactly what’s happening. The swamp is being drained. The Left hasn’t grasped that yet. They still threaten, beg, plea and pretend that they still matter and must be heard.

Obama, indeed the entire Progressive Liberal agenda, including the weak, go along to get along Republicans, have been choking America for decades with unAmerican ideas, philosophies, rules and regulations that nobody really wants. The Socialist programs of top down government control has turned a great many young Americans into sheep to be sheared when needed. Then, along came Trump. The shearing will stop and a new era of reeducation will commence.

The shock waves of Brexit, followed by Trumps victory over the standard bearer of all things socialist, Hillary Clinton, is still reverberating throughout the western world.  Teressa May just announced a British hard exit from the EU, mellowing her vision with faint words of praise about still being a European country but becoming an important part of the larger world. Did she signal an end to elitism? Maybe Brits are tired of Brussels telling them how to make beer!

Our focus however, is current. We hear blowhards like Georgia Rep. John Lewis, declaring Trump’s election as illegitimate. How does he know being one of the sheep that the left has periodically sheared? He is still consequential to them because its important for the left to have dim witted fellow travelers in the ranks proclaiming the lefts mantra, especially black ones. That Lewis, and a bunch of other Democrats will not attend Trump’s inauguration is absolutely a non story because nobody really cares anymore. They lost. They should get over it. They won’t!

Are we alarmed that the Hollywood entertainment elites are telling America that they won’t perform at Trump’s inauguration? No, we are not! Why?  Because they weren’t invited. Trump will attend three inauguration Balls, not fourteen. His speech will be short, succinct and to the point, and his parade, short as well, then he’ll get down to the business of draining that swamp.

Has anyone noticed that the old Republican functionaries, many long ensconced in the Republican ranks of operation of government agencies, haven’t been invited to return to their old posts and form the foundation of Trump’s presidency? No! We hear the term “Blacklist” being bandied around. That’s exactly true because along came Trump.

All those lower level functionaries that Trump is not considering to fill those 4000 bureaucratic jobs that government requires, are creatures of the swamp. How do we know? Because they signed the “#Never Trump” letter, forever eliminating themselves from any future consideration for a meaningful position in a populist, Constitutional government.

Trump will be there for eight years. The left’s message of dependency will no longer rally the sheep and America will resume its rightful role as the worlds leader. Get over it. Remember, Freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, let’s go get ‘em! (18 Jan 2017)

The Trouble With Legacy’s

Opinion

Opinion by George McClellan:

Ever since the elections that delivered the House into Republican hands in 2012, and the subsequent disappointing inaction they showed, I have taken the position that their form of conservatism should have never taken the floor if they were not willing to fight the Democrats, i.e.: Progressive-Socialist party over the direction Obama was taking Americas. They promised but they didn’t deliver.

In the election cycle of 2014, Americas delivered the Senate into Republican hands, but sadly, with both houses of Congress in GOP hands, they still failed to deliver, except to provide feeble excuses for why they couldn’t do what they were sent there to do, basically restore a  Constitutional America and the rule of law. That’s a legacy one cannot be proud of.

So, in this last election cycle, American’s sent a novice candidate with no political experience to the White House to run things as we want and by damn, some Republicans still don’t get it. In his ascendancy, Mr. Donald Trump swept away all the usual political roadblocks to conservative performances, as well as the usual suspects that couldn’t get anything done, and did so with the vicious cruelty of a grim reaper, and still the GOP political class haven’t got it. Some still insist the old GOP formula of inclusion and hands across the aisle should be pursued as the fastest way to political harmony and doing the peoples work. Nobody told the Democrats that!

As President-elect, Trump has already done so much more to bolster the spirit of America and Americans than the current buffoon who is departing, that the very air crackles with a spirit not felt since VJ day. This is shown in polls showing that conservatives will support President-elect Donald Trump’s on key issues over those of the old, dying GOP elites. It’s a new legacy forming.

Fifty-three percent of all Americans, not specifically Republicans, support the GOP’s positions while thirty-seven percent say they strongly identify with Trump’s positions. Compare this to only sixteen percent who identify with the positions of the average Republican lawmaker, or thirty-seven percent agreeing with those of the average congressional Democrat.

Rasmussen, the major poll taker, crunches the numbers down even further showing that of Americans who describe themselves as Republicans, sixty-three percent side with Trump’s views on major issues. That leaves a pitiful twenty-seven percent who said they were in step with the average GOP (establishment) politicians. That’s the trouble with legacy’s

Most folks don’t really know how Trump will lead the nation. We know he is a tough negotiator and generally gets what he wants. We know he listens to sage advice of his counselor and does not surround himself with “yes” men. We suspect he will ardently push his ideas, like his cabinet choices, through a basically still hostile GOP congress, and we know he will probably win because the GOP could never fend off the Democrats, how will they possibly fend off the one man who not only defeated sixteen other GOP hopefuls, but the Democrats main candidate, the corrupt and very beatable, Hillary Rodham Clinton? Trump knows weakness when he sees it.

The question arises, will Trump, like Obama, ignore constitutional restraints in his pursuit of change by becoming an autocrat, or will he wisely stiffen the backbone of the this Republican congress to remove America away from is corrupt past and into his promised economic future that appears to be dawning on the horizon? Trump is in the drivers seat. Let him drive.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (10 Jan2017)

Who Is Obama?

Opinion

Opinion by George McClellan:

Philosophers, even as far back as Aristotle and probably earlier, have tried to explain the difference between man and God in logical, understandable terms. It hasn’t been done, but scripture does tell us man is made in God’s image. But man, looking around him see’s that that could not possibly be so because of the many imperfections man possesses. Maybe man could do it better! That has opened a can of worms to haunt us forever. The operative word that encompasses the whole concept of religion, is “faith.” Either one has it or one does not!

America’s founding documents acknowledge, indeed trumpet the reality of divine providence by actually crediting God with providing the gifts of life, liberty, freedom and etc. Philosophically speaking, our founding fathers credit God with gifting America with the divine providence that America has enjoyed for over two centuries. Religious scholars argue that it’s in man’s providence to lose God’s favor, by choice, as the last forty years have seemed to prove.

In Religion, as in politics, people are fractured into separate groups as disparate churches, each staking a position of having “true belief” through direct communication with God. If they claim so, who can deny it? But, In the book of James, anyone with faith is given that ability. If that’s true, then why do we have organized religion? Well, follow the money!

Political philosophers, like Marx, Engels and Lenin, threw out God as the “Opiate of the people.” Later, Marxist apostles like, Saul Alinsky, Barak Obama, et. al., view mankind’s progress through the eyes of the true anthropogenic, one who considers man to be the most significant entity in the Universe. When applied, these philosophical theories have morphed into unworkable schemes called fascism, communism and socialism. All deny any association with God, except as a tool to be used to corral the masses they consider to be mere sheep.

But, Obama takes it a step further. He is a real narcissist. He believes he alone is the one most significant entity in the universe. Once, mental institutions were filled with like minded people who firmly believed they were the reincarnations of Napoleon or Genghis Khan. Many such people occupy the seats of power in their own spheres holding the reins of government in their grubby hands, dragging their followers with them, to ultimate misery.

That suggests the obvious next question: Was Obama made in God’s image? By our own experience we know he is not God. He’s too inept. That’s an issue that may be argued among the intellectual class for decades. Obama, by word, action and deed has shown he was either a Christian, a Muslim and probably even a hottentot if he’d thought of it, but the evidence of our own eyes indicates, apart from being a fool, that he assiduously worships at the alter of golf.

Fortunately, Obama has never claimed he was the reincarnation of Mohammad. The Jihadists would soon have his head mounted on a stick as a blasphemer. He’s never claimed to be God either because he simply does not believe there really is a God for him to emulate. He would have us believe that he alone is solely the one superior intellect who has risen up from out of the primordial slime that is humanity, to gift the universe with the brilliance of his wisdom.

We are now realizing, I think, that wisdom is the by-product of hands-on work and experience, talents Obama did not bring with him to office. He was a community organizer and created nothing by his own hands. That his ignominious term is coming to an end can’t be soon enough.

I trust we realize the mistake we made, as God fearing people, and do not repeat it.

Damage Party’s

Opinion

Opinion written by George McClellan:

The tatters that is the Democrat party still survives, barely, as the evil antithesis of Constitutional government, morality and decency. For the next four to eight years the total aim of the Democrat Party will be to destroy, delegitimize or render ineffective, anything the Trump administration attempts to do. It will be a hard task, but, It’s for the children, isn’t it?

Thanks to Harry Reid, the Democrats, having little political leverage left, will resort to all manner of tricks to keep their narrative in the publics mind, abetted naturally, by the media. In any event, they will have a tough row to hoe as they have no vision that is truly American or fits within the Constitutional framework Americans demanded in November. But, that’s their problem.

How did they arrive at this unhappy state? I believe it was because their charming, black candidate Barak Hussain Obama, was just that, a candidate, a Democrat in name only. In intelligence trade craft lingo, it was good cover. He allowed the party to go its way, slavishly lingering on the periphery of his marxist leadership. Basically, he ignored the Democrat party and allowed it to atrophy. They didn’t even realize it until after the shock that was Nov. 8th.

Populism swept all that away and ushered in the era of Donald Trump, as a Republican candidate. But, here is the caution: Trump is, and will remain just that, the Republican candidate, pushing ahead with his own vision just like Barak did. He will do so with or without the establishment Republican’s active support. If they don’t catch on they too, ignored and unwanted, will atrophy. Both parties are severely damaged clinging as they do to failed ideas.

The Republicans, however, unlike the Democrats, still have some political leverage because they control the majorities of both houses of Congress. But, they do not have the good will of their voter base. Donald Trump has the “Bully Pulpit” and knows how to use it. It will be a sad fate for the establishment Republicans if they fail to recognize the populist juggernaught that has overwhelmed them and crushed the Democrats. Socialism is endemic but not incurable.

Unenlightened GOP advocates, like John McCain and Lindsay Graham, will still stubbornly cling to their old philosophies of crony conservatism, unfettered immigration, extending the hand of friendship across the aisle, and find value in the Democrats narrative that should be nourished, all in the name of bipartisanship. The comparisons are complete!

Republicans beware! You are still distrusted and the Tea Party activists will start moving their populist message forward, just like the never dead Democrats will try to do. Right now, appears to be the best open window available to start making the changes to enfranchise the Independent conservative Republican movement, the one built on the corpse of the out of date establishment Republican Party. The mechanism is in place, only the people need to be changed. Remember, all politics are local. That’s where populisms greatest strength lies.

And, let’s not forget how Trumps victory is affecting the Democratic world. Populism is sweeping Europe. It started with the Brexit and was confirmed with Trumps victory. The path forward has been revealed and soon, we’ll see the cracks in the EU’s foundation open wider. France, Germany and the Netherlands are right behind. It’s a bright day dawning, but it will not be an easy one. Among our other problems, the fascist forces of Islam still hovers within our midsts and like a cancer, must be cut out and neutralized.

Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (27 Dec 16)
