Nancy Pelosi's folly of impeaching the president now goes to the Senate with a group of managers from the worst of the herd. by Michael Wilson Nancy Pelosi will load her Gang of Seven "managers'' into a Yugo clown car, and they will convey the articles of impeachment to the Senate. After three years of concerted but ineffective search, and the squandering of unknown tens of millions of our tax dollars in their futile effort, they have produced two nebulous charges that do not even name real crimes. Their is nothing, even in the "penumbra" of their allegations, that even suggests the "high crimes and misdemeanors" required by the Constitution to remove a POTUS from office. Proven and eventually confessed perjury was not sufficient to remove Bill Clinton from office, as those who lived through his impeachment will recall. The House Democrats cannot even come up with spitting on the street or impure thoughts on a steamboat landing. Congress...

In a society devolving more and more to non-thinking, anti-American people who operate strictly from their biased political beliefs and hate with no sense of propriety, or intellectual integrity I am fortunate to know many people who are of a better character and mindset. Janet McNeel, teacher, author, business owner, analytical thinker and more, is one such person. Janet wrote this thoughtful piece and has permitted me to post it here for many to enjoy. May it elicit thoughts in you to help deal with our current decadent national condition. JAM by Janet McNeel I've been doing a lot of soul searching lately as to why my political views have become passionate, when previously I could take it or leave it, respond or not respond. Soul searching and lack of sleep has led me to this conclusion. * I believe it started when Maxine Waters stood before a group and shouted for her supporters to accost people at the gas pump, in the grocery store, anywhere they could be found in public. ...

In a F acebook discussion this morning I referred to Nancy Pelosi in negative terms as she introduced her "impeachment management team" to send to the Senate for the sham impeachment. My comments were rebutted by a person who proclaimed that Pelosi only spoke truth and followed the constitution. He suggested I might read it. I have and I have watched far too much of Pelosi to believe she has any integrity or that she is a constitutionalist.  Progressives  A f ter listening to Nancy Pelosi introduce her "impeachment management team" this morning, I thought it necessary to come back to this and simply ask you what part(s) of the constitution do you refer to. Or, what constitution, what country.? In my most reckless thinking, my worst dreams, did I ever expect to see our representatives as reprehensible, ignorant and just plain intellectually insufficient as Pelosi and her crowd are. Also, as one who grew up among honorable Liberal Democrats, but left them after ...

I'm reposting this blogpost for those who may be inclined to believe the nonsense coming from the likes of one Congressional Representative of the hard left, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, now becoming a spokesperson for the "Progresssives." Continued devolution. Sad. 97% CONSENSUS FALLACIOUS March 05, 2017  97% “consensus” on global warming is derived from prejudice, not from data and not by the "Scientific Method." This article was run March 4, 2016 in The Daily Press, a Tribune Paper. I'm posting here to reach readers beyond our local, Virginia Peninsula, area, especially for worldwide readers. On Monday morning, February 27, 2017, The Daily Press published a letter by a citizen , in which he used the fallacious 97% “consensus” on global warming to deride the newly approved EPA Director, Scott Pruitt. He also took a swipe at new Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos for speaking quite a bit of truth about misinfo...

The Commonwealth of Virginia, with huge sums of money from the likes of George Soros and Michael Bloomberg invested in left-wing Democrats, went Democrat in both chambers of the General Assembly. The top three officials are hard leftists, from Ralph Northam, who supported infanticide and gun control, to Lt. Gov. Fairfax to AG Mark Herring, both rabid leftists and the promise a legislative agenda that will mimic California. Governor Northam, not one who shows much intelligence or integrity, promises to make gun control a major issue. At least 70 counties and cities across Virginia have declared opposition to what is anticipated as extreme gun control and have, consequently, adopted resolutions opposing the initiatives. Commonly called "Gun Sanctuaries" it has become a major issue. This post is by the erudite Michael Wilson and I am pleased to post it. Gun Sanctuaries, a Virginia Initiative to Counter Democrat Extremists By Michael Wilson After exposure to more political...

Trump's impeachment is the "Progressive" Democrats' attempt to defeat him in 2020 to avoid permanent loss of their cultural revolution to transform America from 1st to 3rd world. This was Obama's charter and he did much to effect it. Election of Trump president in 2016 gives Americans one chance to stop the "Progressives" march to perdition, destruction of traditional America. Out of 1st world status into lesser status, 3rd world -- Obama's stated goal, "change America then change the world." He remains active in trying to do just that.  IMPEACHMENT: After declaring Donald Trump a criminal and beginning to look for the crime, even before the election of 2016, and spending 10s of millions of dollars and the majority of congress' time for nearly three years, the rabid "Progressive" Democrat American transformation advocates have contrived to form two (2) articles of impeachment: 1) Obstruction of Congress and 2) Abuse of power...

I proudly publish this thoughtful inspirational consideration of impeachment of President Trump for a thinking individual and one I'm honored to call a friend. He's a hero as well as one who has dedicated his life to service to our country and to an exemplary family. I'd hope all who read this will, in whatever way you can, evenly silently, salute Chris Emanus, US Army, for his service, his wisdom and character as demonstrated by his thoughts here. By Chris Emanus, CW5 US Army History is filled with the tales of those that have taken stand against tyranny and corruption. They hold a place of honor within our collective consciousness serving as inspirations during times of strife. We celebrate their names, some we elevate to Sainthood. They endure persecution, vilification and, in many instances, death at the hands of their accusers. As ashes smolder, the wicked rejoice in victory ….. only to be judged or forgotten. The impeachment of Donald J. Trump may well result in th...

PRESIDENT TRUMP: I SUPPORT YOU BECAUSE OF THE NEED TO STOP 8 DECADES OF "PROGRESSIVE" CULTURAL REVOLUTION . You are doing that. I do not support your every action reflexively as do the "progressive" acolytes support their leaders. NOW, your abandoning the KURDS in N. Syria is of great concern. The Kurds are the most reliable people in that miserable part of the world. They helped destroy the ISIS caliphate. They are opponents of Erdogan, arguably the worst leader Turkey has had in decades and he's trying to undo all that Kemel Mustafa Ataturk did to modernize, secularize, Turkey in 1923! BTW, there are at least 12 million Kurds in Turkey majority of whom oppose Erdogan's efforts. Reconsider now, sir.

The chaos we're new experiencing in the form of atempts to remove President Trump from office has far more significant root cause than just angst at Trump personally. As I've discussed in the past, the "Progressive" cultural revolution of 7-8 decades is being disrupted -- and must be, the reason I supported Trump. "Progressive" initiatives have destroyed many traditional American institutions, the crowning one being regard for life with abortion-on-demand, now infanticide, next will be even worse. DEVOLUTION!!! This post will surely cost some "friendships" and perhaps elicit a threat or two. However, since college days I have studied the cultural revolution now 7-8 decades long and the effects, some ravaging, on every American institution as "Progressives" have sought transformation of the nation, unfortunately to a lesser one than the nation that has been a model for the world. Our nation is all but "broken...

This is a short note I wrote to a FB group that was having the normal, but senseless, discussion about gun control. It's surely not extensive and not even profound, but it's real -- the way people act and think. While I continue trying to instill the concept of analytical problem-solving, finding root cause and segmenting problems into component parts, people just cling to the same old simplicity -- don't seek cause, treat the symptom, confiscate the weapon, the one currently used...… !! Bury head in sand, or somewhere and ignore that a gun isn't the only instrument of death to one who wants to kill. If you haven't heard of explosives, look up the term and numbers of same, More!! If one choses to ignore the human conditions that cause some to commit murder while others with the same experiences in life do not, then foolish is but one term, of several, that defines you. Why do we continue to elect to offices that execute, legislate, adjudicate etc those who are in...

 REFLECTIONS AND IMPORTANT FACTS LEARNED WHILE STRANDED OUT OF      THE USA ON 9/11/2001 -- HEZBOLLAH IS IN THE USA FROM THEIR BASE IN S. AM. It was a beautiful September morning in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, as it was in New York. I had enjoyed my favorite Mexican breakfast, machaca nortena (eggs & dried beef, jalapenos, more) and papaya. I bade adios to the smiling breakfast cook and waiter, both of whom always made me feel it was very important to serve me. I checked out of the hotel, chatted with the friendly manager, who asked me if I'd return in one week as usual. No, maybe two to three weeks. After going home, I had to go to Scotland to negotiate a contract with SGL Carbon to convert Mann Industries-Grupo Cydsa carbon fiber precursor into carbon fiber for aircraft brakes. Our recent work had been very successful, the outlook positive. The day was good! Until I entered the waiting car and my driver/engineer said a “small plane had hit a New York T...

E DITOR'S NOTE ; I have written much about the 7-8 decades long cultural revolution of the so-called "Progressive" Democrats and the societal changes, devolution in fact, decadence, political corruption and even potential loss of 1st world status as they march to perdition, national transformation, aka destruction of all traditional American tenets, including the Rule of Law which underpins our constitutional republic. This post is by one I've come to know as a "thinking person" who is clearly concerned about these cultural changes that are destroying our America. Please enjoy this post: BY PATRICIA SCARPERI WEATHERS A friend told me this story the other day. She was working her one job in a wealthy town in the northeast. A man that she knew came into the store and was looking around. She walked over to him to say hi and he didn’t seem to recognize her at first and seemed distracted and disturbed. Finally through a weird forced con...
