Open Forum Discussions and Debate

I do not care if Donald Trump called a woman fat. I do not care if he
tried to sleep with a woman or if he likes 'beautiful' women. I care that he supports our police officers and first responders. I care that he supports guns and standing behind our military. I care that he supports the death penalty and is AGAINST abortion. I care that he supports enforcing immigration laws. I care that he wants to destroy radical Islamic groups.

I care that he supports COAL. These are things I care about. Him talking about women does not bother me. Were they mean words? Yes. Were they words spoken in PRIVATE? Yes. Have you ever talked to your friends about the opposite sex in private and said things? I'm positive all of you have.

But, News Flash!! Women have been ogled for centuries!! Jay-Z, Lil' Jon, Lil' Wayne and every single other rapper helped establish that platform, but people are ok with music blasted all over the radio degrading women.

Ever heard of Victoria Secret? Or their fashion show? Ever heard of Hooters? People are ok with that too. Until all of these things are different, women will be viewed this way.

Your precious Obama couldn't change that and Hillary can't either.
I feel sorry for the women Donald has belittled and said terrible things about. But I'm still much more offended by what Hillary Clinton has DONE over what Donald Trump has SAID... PERIOD!!!!

So Trump doesn't do well at the debates, maybe he even sounds childish and incapable. But he is speaking the truth! Just because
he's not a polished politician like Hilary or Obama doesn't mean he's unqualified to be president.

He cares for this country, not growing the size of his pockets. That man has so much money he could never spend it all. He gets NOTHING out of being president! I'm standing for the man accused of saying mean words. I'll never back a woman under three different scandal investigations, possible murder at Benghazi, and the secretive email scandal which has been nothing but lies from the beginning. Trump 2016!!!

New Yorker Part 1

WHEN AN ULTRA, ULTRA LIBERAL MAGAZINE SUCH AS THE NEW YORKER.....WRITES AN ARTICLE SUCH AS THIS... YOU REALIZE AMERICA IS FINALLY WAKING UP TO THE CORRUPTION, INCOMPETENCE AND IGNORANCE OF Washington...

This is absolutely brilliant. A surprising article from the New Yorker Magazine. This magazine has always been a left wing apologizer so this article is even more amazing. Don’t pass it up.

The author is the political correspondent for Bloomberg and wrote extensively about Obama even before he was nominated.

'Who is Donald Trump?' The better question may be, 'What is Donald Trump?'

The answer? A giant middle finger from average Americans to the political and media establishment.

Some Trump supporters are like the 60s white girls who dated black guys just to annoy their parents. But most Trump supporters have simply had it with the Demo-socialists and the 'Republicans In Name Only.' They knew there wasn't a dime's worth of difference between Hillary Rodham and Jeb Bush, and only few cents worth between Rodham and the other GOP candidates.

Ben Carson was not an 'establishment' candidate, but the Clinton machine would pulverize Carson; and the somewhat rebellious Ted Cruz will (justifiably so) would have been tied up with natural born citizen lawsuits (as might Marco Rubio). The Trump supporters figure they may as well have some fun tossing Molotov cocktails at Wall Street and Georgetown while they watch the nation collapse.
 
Besides - lightning might strike, Trump might get elected, and he might actually fix a few things. Stranger things have happened (the nation elected an [islamo]-Marxist in 2008 and Bruce Jenner now wears designer dresses.
Millions of conservatives are justifiably furious. They gave the Republicans control of the House in 2010 and control of the Senate in 2014, and have seen them govern no differently than Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Yet those same voters are supposed to trust the GOP in 2016? Why?

Trump did not come from out of nowhere. His candidacy was created by the last six years of Republican failures.

No reasonable person can believe that any of the establishment candidates [dems or reps] would have slashed federal spending, rein in the Federal Reserve, cut burdensome business regulations, reform the tax code, or eliminate useless federal departments (the Departments of Education, Housing and Urban Development, Energy, etc.). Even Ronald Reagan was unable to eliminate the Department of Education. (Of course, getting shot at tends to make a person less of a risk-taker.) No reasonable person can believe that any of the nation's major problems will be solved by Rodham as she is simply the third verse of Obama’s waning swan song.

New Yorker Part 2

Many Americans, and especially Trump supporters, have had it with:
Anyone named Bush
Anyone named Clinton
Anyone who's held political office
Political correctness
Illegal immigration
Massive unemployment
Our out of control federal spending
Our National Debt that exceeds our GDP (Can you say Greece?)
Phony 'official' unemployment and inflation figures
Welfare waste and fraud
Money being spent on Illegal immigrants
People faking disabilities to go on the dole
VA waiting lists
TSA airport groping
ObamaCare
The Federal Reserve's money-printing schemes
Wall Street crooks like Jon Corzine
Michelle Obama's vacations
Michelle Obama's food police
Barack Obama's golf
Barack Obama's arrogant and condescending lectures
Barack Obama's criticism/hatred of America
Valerie Jarrett
“Holiday trees'
Hollywood hypocrites
Cop killers while Black Lives Matter
Gun confiscation threats
Stagnant wages
Boys in girls' bathrooms
Whiny, spoiled college students who can't even place the Civil War in the correct century... And that's just the short list.

Trump supporters believe that no Democrat wants to address these issues, and that few Republicans have the courage to address these issues. They know that Trump is their way of saying, 'Screw you, Hillary Rodham and all the Do Nothing Republicans!' The more the talking head political pundits insult the Trump supporters, the more supporters he gains. (The only pundits who seem to understand what is going on are Democrats Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell and Republican John eBoutillier.
 


But America does not need a tune-up at the same old garage. It needs a new engine installed by experts - and Hillary Rodham is not a mechanic; she merely manages a garage her philandering husband abandoned. Trump is also not a mechanic, but he knows where to find the best ones to work in his garage. He won't hire his brother-in-law or someone to whom he owes a favor; he will hire someone who lives and breathes car.

'How dare they revolt!' the 'elites' are bellowing. Well, the citizens are daring to revolt, and the RINOs had better get used to it. 'But Trump will hand the election to Clinton!' That is what the Karl Rove-types want people to believe, just as the leftist media eagerly shoved 'Maverick' McCain down GOP throats in 2008 - knowing he would lose to Obama. But even if Trump loses and Rodham wins, she would be nothing more than a caretaker, not working to restore America’s greatness but
merely presiding over the collapse of a massively in-debt nation. A nation can perhaps survive open borders; a nation can perhaps survive a generous welfare system. But no nation can survive both - and there is little evidence that Hillary Rodham understands that. The United States cannot forever continue on the path it is on.
At some point it will be destroyed by its debt.

Yes, Trump speaks like a bull wandering through a china shop, but the truth is that the bo

New Yorker Part 3

Yes, Trump speaks like a bull wandering through a china shop, but the truth is that the borders do need to be sealed; we cannot afford to feed, house, and clothe 200,000 Syrian immigrants for decades (even if we get inordinately lucky and none of them are ISIS infiltrators or Syed Farook wannabes); the world is at war with radical Islamists; and we cannot continue trying to spend our way out of debt.

Is Trump the perfect candidate? Of course not. Neither was Ronald Reagan. But unless we close our borders and restrict immigration, all the other issues are irrelevant.
One terrorist blowing up a bridge or a tunnel could kill thousands. One jihadist poisoning a city's water supply could kill tens of thousands. One electromagnetic pulse attack from a single Iranian nuclear device could kill tens of millions. Faced with those possibilities, most Americans probably don't care that Trump relied on eminent domain to grab up a final quarter acre of property for a hotel, or that he boils the blood of the Muslim Brotherhood thugs running the Council on American-Islamic Relations. While Attorney General Loretta Lynch's greatest fear is someone giving a Muslim a dirty look, most Americans are more worried about being gunned down at a shopping mall by a crazed Islamic lunatic who treats his prayer mat better than his three wives and who is fool enough to think that 72 virgins are waiting for him in paradise.

The establishment is frightened to death that Trump will win, but not because they believe he will harm the nation. They are afraid he will upset their taxpayer-subsidized apple carts. While Obama threatens to veto legislation that spends too little, they worry that Trump will veto legislation that spends too much.

You can be certain that if Hillary wins in November 2016 … her cabinet positions will be filled with the same people we've seen before. The washed-up has-beens of the Clinton and Obama administrations will be back in charge. The hacks from Goldman Sachs will continue to call the shots. And American will continue her continuing decline as other great democracies in history.

If the establishment wins, America loses.

Roy Kaplan

I see you are still slithering thru the hallowed halls of shame and divorce attorneys.

Now that the Republicans are in, does this mean no more political lambasting on the forum pages for the next 4 years?

I wonder what will happen if Trump 'n' Co don't live up to expectations?

Well Obama 'n' Co sure lived up to my expectations. Trump just took a play from the 'Hollywood playbook'. Do or say anything to get your name out there.

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE HOPELESSNESS OF DEMOCRAT LIBERAL ECONOMIC POLICY.

Seattle Employees Demand: REDUCED HOURS

Seattle employees ask for REDUCED hours so that ''jacked-up'' minimum wage won't cost them subsidized housing: Gee, who could have seen this coming...?

Now this is downright funny. They scream for a higher minimum wage, then, when they get it they complain because they make too much money to qualify for the free stuff, go figure. By jacking up minimum wage, Seattle has provided a valuable lesson in liberal economics. The plan has now backfired.

Nora Gibson, executive director of Full Life Care, told Seattle’s KIRO 7 TV she saw a sudden reaction from workers when Seattle’s phased minimum-wage ordinance took effect in April, bringing minimum wage to $11 an hour. She said anecdotally, some people feared they would lose their subsidized housing so they have asked that their work hours be reduced to remain eligible for all government subsidies.

It doesn’t stop at $11/hour. The law puts it up to $15 starting January 1, 2017, they will have to reduce their work hours even more to remain eligible for handouts.

Good thing the minimum wage wasn’t raised even higher, most would not work at all, they prefer to be spoon fed and remain on the government plantation.

So now workers work fewer hours, but for the same take home pay, business' labor costs increase so prices increase, buyers (workers) pay more and no one is better off.

Remember free market capitalism? Under that system, the harder and smarter you worked, the higher your standard of living. But that was found to result in income inequality, so now we have a system where wealth is bestowed by bureaucrats, and working harder doesn’t always make sense.

These ''citizens'' are NOT entitled to my earnings!

To All My Democrat Friends:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2017, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great.

An Older Lady Who Loves Obama
This is certainly a different way to look at what is happening...

One 82-year-old lady loves Obama and she may have a very good point. She says that Obama is amazing, and is rebuilding the American dream! She gives us an entirely new slant on the 'amazing' job Obama is doing, and she says that she will thank God for the President. Keep reading for her additional comments and an explanation. When discussing Obama, she says:

1. Obama destroyed the Clinton Political Machine, driving a stake through the heart of Hillary's presidential aspirations - something no Republican was ever able to do.

2. Obama killed off the Kennedy Dynasty - no more Kennedys trolling Washington looking for booze and women wanting rides home.

3. Obama is destroying the Democratic Party before our eyes! Dennis Moore had never lost a race. Evan Bayh had never lost a race. Byron Dorgan had never lost a race. Harry Reid - soon to be GONE!
These are just a handful of the Democrats whose political careers Obama has destroyed. By the end of 2016, dozens more will be gone. Just think, in December of 2008 the Democrats were on the rise. In two election cycles, they had picked up 14 Senate seats and 52 House seats. The press was touting the death of the Conservative Movement and the Republican Party. However, in just one term, Obama put a stop to all of this and gave the House and the Senate - back to the Republicans.

4. Obama has completely exposed liberals and progressives for what they are. Sadly, every generation seems to need to re-learn the lesson on why they should never actually put liberals in charge. Obama is bringing home the lesson very well: Liberals tax, borrow and spend. Liberals won't bring themselves to protect America. Liberals want to take over the economy Liberals think they know what is best for everyone. Liberals are not happy until they are running YOUR life.

5. Obama has brought more Americans back to conservatism than anyone since Reagan. In one term, he has rejuvenated the Conservative Movement and brought out to the streets millions of freedom loving Americans. Name one other time when you saw your friends and neighbors this interested in taking back America!

6. Obama, with his 'amazing leadership, 'has sparked the greatest period of sales of firearms and ammunition this country has seen. Law abiding citizens have rallied and have provided a 'stimulus' to the sporting goods field while other industries have failed, faded, or moved off-shore.

7. In all honesty, 4 years ago I was more afraid than I have been in my life. Not afraid of the economy, but afraid of the direction our country was going. I thought, Americans have forgotten what this country is all about. My neighbors and friends, even strangers, have

7. In all honesty, 4 years ago I was more afraid than I have been in my life. Not afraid of the economy, but afraid of the direction our country was going. I thought, Americans have forgotten what this country is all about. My neighbors and friends, even strangers, have proved to me that my lack of confidence in the greatness and wisdom of the American people has been flat wrong.

8. When the American people wake up, no smooth talking teleprompter reader can fool them! Barack Obama has served to wake up these great Americans! Again, I want to say: 'Thank you, Barack Obama!' After all, this is exactly the kind of hope and change we desperately needed!!

9. He has saved Carter’s legacy and made Jimmy Carter happy, since Jimmy is no longer the worst president we've ever had. Credit goes to where credit is due. I feel better now!

THANK YOU OBAMA

Twas the Night Before Inauguration!

Twas the night before Inauguration, and up in the tower,
The Donald reflected on his newfound power.
The conservative masses had come out in force,
And delivered a victory that would chart a new course.

The snowflakes were shell-shocked with tears in their eyes,
The media lied to them . . . What a surprise.
They had been promised a Hillary win,
But the criminal Clinton took one on the chin.

And though from all corners celebrities flew,
They made no impression, for they hadn’t a clue.
They talked about climate, racism, and such,
And they made up good stories . . . But didn’t know much.

The fake news and ignorance came at a cost,
And they can’t understand all the reasons they lost.
They blame it on Comey and Bernie and Vlad,
But fail to acknowledge the one that was bad.

Yes, Hillary Clinton, in many ways flawed,
Was her own biggest hurdle toward getting the nod.
The campaign exposed her corruptness and greed,
And her speeches were punch-less as ten dollar weed.

So out in the streets there arose such a clatter,
It was Soros-paid protestors and Black Lives Matter.
With cities to pillage and windows to smash,
They knew not the issues, but needed the cash.

Eight years of Obama had given them cause,
To expect a replacement of their Santa Claus.
But soon the protestors will feel the pain,
When the wheels fall off of the old gravy train.

And now all the snowflakes are riddled with fear,
Upset and offended by things that they’ll hear.
The cocoa and crayons will help for a while,
But fact-based opinions will soon cramp their style.

I originally supported, and voted, for Cruz,
In the end, I would vote for whoever they choose.
He wasn’t my first choice, but soon I would cede,
The one they call Trump is the one that we need.

I saw him on TV in front of a crowd,
He spoke about veterans, it made me feel proud.
He spoke about energy, safety, and jobs,
Taking this country back from the Washington snobs.

He was dressed in Armani, all tailored and neat,
And the Brunos he wore made the outfit complete.
For a man of his vintage, he seemed rather fit,
And he looked presidential, I have to admit.

His eyes glowed like embers, his smile was the best,
And his hair was the color of my old hunting vest.
His love for this country was on full display,
And his actions spoke louder than his words could say.

He thanked all his voters, and before he was gone,
Saved thousands of jobs while Obama looked on.
The fate of this country left nothing to chance,
So, he filled out his cabinet weeks in advance.

The men he had chosen were of the same mind,
Let’s set the bar high, and not lead from behind.
He picked up his phone as he rose from his seat,
With a flick of his finger, he sent out this tweet;

“Now Mattis!, now Kelly!’ now Sessions! And Pruitt!
On Perry! On Flynn, You’re the ones who can do it.
Start

Read pt 1 Above first...















“Now Mattis!, now Kelly!’ now Sessions! And Pruitt!
On Perry! On Flynn, You’re the ones who can do it.
Start lifting restrictions and building the wall,
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!”;

The roar of his audience rose from the stands,
He kissed all their babies and shook all their hands.
He answered their questions and calmed all their fears,
They knew it would be a fantastic four years.
Then he jumped in his limo, and off to his jet,
A fellow that Liberals won’t soon forget.
He sent one more tweet as the evening expired;
“Happy Inauguration to all,
AND OBAMA – YOU’RE FIRED!” by Joseph Soto

Do You Know Someone Suffering From Trump Unacceptance & Resistance Disorder (TURD)?
TURD is a pattern of pathologically dissociative and psychotic behavior, first observed in the late hours of November 8th 2016, and increasing in severity with passing time.  Sufferers of TURD often exhibit pronounced cognitive dissonance, sudden bouts of rage, rioting, and uncontrollable crying.  People with TURD are characterized by a persistent unwillingness to accept that Donald Trump is going to Make America Great Again.
TURD Is caused by the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States of America. For many, both in America and worldwide, this was a shocking and unexpected outcome; their preferred news sources having failed to inform them that the alternative candidate was a criminal parasite.
Research is ongoing, but TURD appears to correlate closely with some of the following environmental and behavioral factors:
* Membership in the Democratic Party
* Identifying as a Feminist
* Currently enrolled in college, and/or Possession of a Liberal Arts college degree
* Living in a densely populated metropolitan area
* Massive student debt
* Spotty or non-existent work history
Patients with TURD are very resistant to treatment, and dangerous in large groups. Any possibility of treatment requires that they be separated from their hive-mind support apparatus; they cannot begin the process of accepting reality in the presence of encouragement towards delusion and irrationality. Separation may require the assistance of law enforcement.
If you have a friend or loved one suffering from TURD, urge them to seek treatment. Together we can beat this scourge, and Make America Great Again.

'US' by Paul Genova


(Mr. Paul Genova has been President and Chief Operating Officer of Wireless Telecom Group Inc. since June 30, 2016.


I haven't said too much about this election since the start....but this is how I feel....

I'm noticing that a lot of people aren't graciously accepting the fact that their candidate lost.
In fact you seem to be posting even more hateful things about those who voted for Trump.

Some are apparently 'triggered' because they are posting how 'sick' you feel about the results.

How did this happen you ask? Well here is how it happened!

You created 'us' when you attacked our freedom of speech.

You created 'us' when you attacked our right to bear arms.

You created 'us' when you attacked our Christian beliefs.

You created 'us' when you constantly referred to us as racists.

You created 'us' when you constantly called us xenophobic.

You created 'us' when you told us to get on board or get out of the way.


You created 'us' when you attacked our flag

You created 'us' when you took God out of our schools.

You created 'us' when you confused women's rights with feminism.

You created 'us' when you began to emasculate men.

You created 'us' when you decided to make our children soft.


You created 'us' when you decided to vote for progressive ideals.

You created 'us' when you attacked our way of life.


You created 'us' when you decided to let our government get out of control.

You created 'us' the silent majority

You created 'us' when you began murdering innocent law enforcement officers.

You created 'us' when you lied and said we could keep our insurance plans and our doctors.

You created 'us' when you allowed our jobs to continue to leave our country.


You created 'us' when you took a knee, or stayed seated or didn't remove your hat during our National Anthem.


You created 'us' when you forced us to buy health care and then financially penalized us for not participating.



And we became fed up and we pushed back and spoke up.
And we did it with ballots, not bullets.
With ballots, not riots.
With ballots, not looting.
With ballots, not blocking traffic.
With ballots, not fires, except the one you started inside of 'us'

'YOU' created 'US'.

It really is just that simple.

During a recent Trump
stop, a heckler from the
audience hollered,
'Hey Trump, where are you
hiding your tax returns?'

The Donald politely responded,
'I've found a very secure place
that I'm certain they won't be found.'

The insistent heckler, then shouted,
'And just where is that, dummy'?

The Donald smiled and said,
'They are underneath
Obama's college records,
his passport application,
his immigration status as a student,
his funding sources to pay for college,
his college records, and
his Selective Service registration.
'Got another question?'

YOU Really Have To Ask Why
CONSERVATIVES Own Guns?

Because LIBERALS:

Block Freeways,
Burn Cities,
Throw Molotov Cocktails,
Loot,
Turn Over Cop Cars…

AND
Think This
Behavior Is
Socially Acceptable…

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed. What a beauty of a bird feeder it was, as I filled it lovingly with seed.

Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.

But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.

Then came the sheet. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table ... everywhere!

Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had
fed them out of my own pocket.

And others birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all
hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn't even sit on my own back porch anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned
up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was like it used to be ..... quiet, serene....
and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.

Now let's see.....
Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care and free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.

Then the illegal's came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor in some places;
Your child's second grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak
English.

Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to
'press one' to hear my bank talk to me in English and people waving flags other than ”ours” are
squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding
more rights and free benefits.

Just my opinion, but maybe it's time for the government to take down the bird feeder.

If you agree, pass it on; if not, just continue cleaning up the sheet!

~ Green Thing ~

Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the much older lady that she should bring her own grocery bags, because plastic bags are not good for the environment.
The woman apologized to the young girl and explained, 'We didn't have this 'green thing' back in my earlier days.'

The young clerk responded, 'That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations.'

The older lady said that she was right -- our generation didn't have the 'green thing' in its day. The older lady went on to explain:
Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the 'green thing' back in our day.

Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags that we reused for numerous things. Most memorable besides household garbage bags was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our school books. This was to ensure that public property (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribblings. Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags. But, too bad we didn't do the 'green thing' back then.
We walked up stairs because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.

But she was right. We didn't have the 'green thing' in our day.

Back then we washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throw away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220 volts. Wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.

But that young lady is right; we didn't have the 'green thing' back in our day.
Back then we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

But she's right; we didn't have the 'green thing' back then.

We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replace

~ Part Two ~

We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blade in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

But we didn't have the 'green thing' back then.

Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service in the family's $45,000 SUV or van, which cost what a whole house did before the “green thing.' We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.

But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the 'green thing' back then?

Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a know-it-all young person.

We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to tick us off... Especially from a tattooed, multiple pierced, product of the public educational system who can't make change without the cash register telling them how much.

Subject: Three Trees & A Woodpecker

It is hard to find a joke today without a dirty word or two in it, but here is one.

Two tall trees, a birch and a beech, are growing in the woods. A small tree begins to grow between them, and the beech says to the birch, 'Is that a son of a beech or a son of a birch?' The birch says he cannot tell, but just then a woodpecker lands on the sapling.

The birch says, 'Woodpecker, you are a tree expert. Can you tell if that is a son of a beech or a son of a birch?'

The woodpecker takes a taste of the small tree and replies, 'It is neither a son of a beech nor a son of a birch. It is, however, the best piece of ash I have ever poked my pecker into.

Strange how words, that are perfectly acceptable in the Australian media, will get one thrown in the '' naughty corner'', on this site...

A well written article someone posted on Facebook

To all the whiners on the left, and to the crybabies in the LGBT community, let me throw some reality into your bowl of fruity pebbles...

Nobody has a 'right' to serve in the Military. Nobody!! What makes you people think the Military is an equal opportunity employer? Very far from it. The Military uses prejudice regularly and consistently to deny citizens from joining for a variety of reasons, like being too old or too young, too fat or too skinny, too tall or too short.

Citizens are denied for having flat feet, or for missing fingers or toes, poor eyesight will disqualify you, poor hearing, undernourished, Drug addiction, metal implants, Criminal history, Anxiety, Phobias, Hearing voices in your head, Self-identify as a Unicorn, handicapped in anyway, Can't run the required distance in the required time, Can't do the required number of pushups or sit-ups, have an eating disorder, or any kind of mental disorder, have a below average IQ, can't read or comprehend English, can't problem solve or make quick decisive decisions.

Are you not really a 'morning person' and refuse to get out of bed before noon? You're out!

You have a pen is but want to use the women's restroom? You're out!

Don't like the camouflage uniforms because you'd rather wear pink? You're out!

The Military has one job. Prepare for War against anybody who threatens the safety and sovereignty of our nation! Anything else is a distraction and a liability.

Did someone just scream 'That isn't Fair'? War is VERY unfair. There are no exceptions made for being special or challenged or socially wonderful or different.

YOU change yourself to meet Military standards. Not the other way around. I say again: You don't change the Military standards... you must change yourself. The Military doesn't need to accommodate anyone with special needs or emotional and mental issues. The Military needs to Win Wars. If any of your personal issues are a liability that detract from readiness or lethality...Then, thank you for applying and good luck in your future endeavors. Who's next in line?

And yet DOA, this site was designed by an Aussie, (bit of a p‍ussy tho), for not allowing the use of everyday words. It really s‍ucks!

Just to play the ''devils' advocate''.....

In light of some recent comments, I feel inclined to offer this. -

I seem to recall that the 'boat people', (refugees) trying to reach Australia, were, instead, sent to an offshore island holding facility. How come Australia didn't welcome them with 'open arms'?


Ten billion, plus or minus, to build a wall between Mexico & the U.S., versus the billions spent every year to subsidize them, with food, housing, medical care, not to mention parallel, 'English as a second language' education, etc., seems like a bargain, to me. How do they show their appreciation? Burn or otherwise desecrate the U.S. flag, while proudly displaying the flag of the country they were so desperate to leave.

If the 'refugees' were willing to assimilate, meaning learn & adopt the language, work for a living and pay their fair share with the fruits of their legal gainful employment, perhaps I would feel different.

Would their native country readily accept U.S. citizens and provide them with the same benefits they receive here? Would they print all official documents in multiple 'foreign languages' and provide translators where necessary to accommodate the newcomers? Would they tolerate our burning their flag?

I think not...


I shouldn't have to press

1 for English

2 for Spanish

3 for Farsi

etc., ad nauseam.

Cinco de Mayo shouldn't be celebrated with greater enthusiasm, than 4th of July, or Veterans Day.

13 things Americans want so let’s DEMAND IT.

I like the way this is phrased because it recognizes that the political class are 'bought and paid for'. I believe that the basic premise is correct: If you listen to Trump, he is hitting many of the hot buttons of the electorate. But you have to listen to him and not be distracted by his showmanship and obnoxious behavior.

I like the list of 13 things that I, as a senior American citizen, want. Trump is at least talking about issues that most Americans are concerned about. My mantra about Trump is this: Truthfully, We are usually in agreement with most of what he says but wish someone else was saying it. We are offended by his brash manner. We are getting older and our tickers aren't what they used to be, but what matters is that he covers most of the 13 things we as seniors want, at least I do for sure.

1. Hillary: held accountable for her previous wrongs!

2. Put 'GOD' back in America!

3. Borders: Closed or tightly guarded!

4. Congress: On the same retirement & healthcare plans as everybody else.

5. Congress: Obey its own laws NOW!

6. Language: English only!

7. Culture: Constitution and the Bill of Rights!

8. Drug Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before & during Welfare!

9. Freebies: NONE to Non-Citizens!

10. Budget: Balance the damn thing!

11. Foreign Countries: Stop giving them our money! Charge them for our help! We need it here.

12. Fix the TAX CODE!

And most of all.

13. 'RESPECT OUR MILITARY AND OUR FLAG!'

We the people are coming!

I am Looking forward to deer hunting season but I do have a question. If I shoot a buck, but I only have a doe tag, can I claim that the buck wasn't really a buck? I mean … maybe he'd always wanted to be a doe, but with no choice of his own he was born with the physical attributes of a male.

And yet … on the inside he'd always known he was truly a female. I'm just wondering if I can get the game warden to buy that BS, because Society and the Supreme Court do.

The Democrat Party is the world's

most successful hate group. It

attracts poor people who hate rich

people, black people who hate

white people, gay people who

hate straight people, feminists

who hate men, environmentalists

who hate the internal combustion

engine, and a lot of bratty college

kids who hate their parents.

However, the real secret of the

party's success is that it attracts

the support of journalists who

hate Republicans, and who

therefore work tirelessly to

convince the rest of us that we

should vote for Democrats.



The election of Trump

did not create

the left's hate.


It Revealed It...

The Barber Shop





Donald Trump and Obama ended up in the same barber shop. Each being worked on by a different barber, not a word was spoken.

The barbers were even afraid to start a conversation, for fear it would turn to politics.

As the barbers finished their shaves, the one who had Obama in his chair reached for the aftershave.

Obama was quick to stop him saying, 'No thanks, my wife Michelle will smell that and think I've been in a whorehouse all day.'

The second barber turned to Trump and said, 'How about you sir?'

Trump replied, 'Go ahead; my wife doesn't know what the inside of a whorehouse smells like.'

See, folks .... we are not alone....

My Grandpa watched as his friends died in WWI

My Father watched as his friends died in WWII and Korea
..

I watched (1st hand) as my friends fought and died in Vietnam..

I watched as our friends and children fought and died in Desert Storm..

I watched and waited while our friends and children fought and died in Iraq....


None of them fought for or died for the Mexican Flag or any other foreign flag ..
Everyone fought for and died for the U.S. Flag!

In Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.
Guess who was expelled...
The kid who took it down.


Kids in high school in California were sent home this year on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough.


The message below
needs to be viewed by every
American;

And every American needs
to stand up for America.

We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough....
I'm taking a stand...



I'm standing up because the
hundreds of thousands who
died fighting in wars for this
country, and for the U.S. Flag
who can't stand up...
And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message...

Let me make this
perfectly clear!

THIS IS MY COUNTRY!
And, my making this statement
DOES NOT Mean
I'm against immigration!!!

YOU ARE WELCOME
HERE IN OUR COUNTRY!

Welcome!

To come through legally:

1. Get a sponsor!

2. Get a place to lay your head!

3. Get a job!

4.Live By OUR Rules!


5.Pay YOUR Taxes!

And

6.Learn the LANGUAGE
like immigrants have in the past!!

AND

7. Please don't demand that
we hand over our lifetime Savings
of Social Security Funds to you.

If you don't want to forward this
for fear of offending someone,
then YOU'RE PART OF THE PROBLEM!

When will AMERICANS
STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS ???

We've gone so far the other way..
We’ve bent over backwards not to offend anyone...
But it seems no one cares about the
AMERICAN CITIZEN being offended!

WAKE UP AMERICA!!!

Rosemary LaBonte to the editors of a California newspaper in response to an article written by Ernie Lujan who suggests we should tear down the Statue of Liberty because the immigrants of today aren’t being treated the same as those who passed through Ellis Island and other ports of entry. The paper never printed this response, so her husband sent it out via internet.



Maybe we should turn to our history books and point out to people like Mr. Lujan why today's American is not willing to accept this new kind of immigrant any longer. Back in 1900 when there was a rush from all areas of Europe to come to the United States, people had to get off a ship and stand in a long line in New York and be documented.

Some would even get down on their hands and knees and kiss the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the laws and support their new country in good and bad times. They made learning English a primary rule in their new American households and some even changed their names to blend in with their new home.

They had waved goodbye to their birth place to give their children a new life and did everything in their power to help their children assimilate into one culture. Nothing was handed to them. No free lunches, no welfare, no labor laws to protect them. All they had were the skills and craftsmanship they had brought with them to trade for a future of prosperity.


Most of their children came of age when World War II broke out. My father fought alongside men whose parents had come straight over from Germany , Italy , France and Japan None of these 1st generation Americans ever gave any thought about what country their parents had come from. They were Americans fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of Japan . They were defending the United States of America as one people.

When we liberated France , no one in those villages were looking for the French American, the German American or the Irish American. The people of France saw only Americans. And we carried one flag that represented one country. Not one of those immigrant sons would have thought about picking up another country's flag and waving it to represent who they were. It would have been a disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so much to be here. These immigrants truly knew what it meant to be an American. They stirred the melting pot into one red, white and blue bowl.

And here we are with a new kind of immigrant who wants the same rights and privileges. Only they want to achieve it by playing with a different set of rules, one that includes the entitlement card and a guarantee of being faithful to their mother country.

I'm sorry, that's not what being an American is all about. I believe that the immigrants who landed on Ellis Island in the early 1900's deserve better than that for all the toil, hard work and sacrifice in raising future generations to create a land that has become a beacon for those legally searching for a better life.

Part II

I'm sorry, that's not what being an American is all about. I believe that the immigrants who landed on Ellis Island in the early 1900's deserve better than that for all the toil, hard work and sacrifice in raising future generations to create a land that has become a beacon for those legally searching for a better life. I think they would be appalled that they are being used as an example by those waving foreign country flags.

And for that suggestion about taking down the Statue of Liberty, it happens to mean a lot to the citizens who are voting on the immigration bill.
I wouldn't start talking about dismantling the United States just yet.


FOR THE WRONG THINGS TO PREVAIL, THE RIGHTFUL MAJORITY NEEDS TO REMAIN COMPLACENT AND QUIET.
LET THIS NEVER HAPPEN!

Liberals have been pretty quiet about the recent shooting (at the Youtube Heaquarters). Maybe because it was done by a MUSLIM, VEGAN,
FEMALE who shot people in a “GUN-FREE ZONE” with a HANDGUN in a state with STRICT GUN CONTROL. That makes it pretty darn tough to blame straight white males or the NRA…

ALL OF A SUDDEN...

All of a sudden, 4 thousand Guatemalans
decided to walk 1,500 miles !!! Buy a
back-pack, arrange for food for 12,000
meals, every day for 2 months, get money
for travel expenses, have drinking water
for 4,000 people every day X 60
(that’s 720,000 meals and 480,000 litres
of water for the trip),
get directions for the best route to take,
have extra clothes and sanitary items,
have medical care available, prepare for
rainy days get 4,000 sleeping bags!!

If they can cover 25 miles every day,
it will take them 60 days to cover 1,500 miles.
And they all decided to do this all of a sudden,
all at once and they would arrive in the USA
just in time for our election. What an amazing event.

Let this sink in…

I've been quiet too long - time to ''stir the pot''...

Time we faced up to all the awful things about Trump. Memory can be tricky, so in case you have forgotten:

AH YES...REMEMBER WHEN !!!!


Remember when Donald Trump was business partners with the Russian government and his company got $53 million from the Russian government investment fund called Rusnano that was started by Vladimir Putin and is referred to as 'Putin's Child?”
Oh wait, that wasn't Trump; it was John Podesta.

Remember when Donald Trump received $500,000 for a speech in Moscow and paid for by Renaissance Capital, a company tied to Russian Intelligence Agencies?
Oh wait, that was Bill Clinton.

Remember when Donald Trump approved the sale of 20% of U.S. uranium to the Russians while he was Secretary of State which gave control of it to Rosatom the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation?
Oh wait, that was Hillary Clinton.

Remember when Donald Trump lied about that and said he wasn't a part of approving the deal that gave the Russians 1/5 of our uranium, but then his e-mails were leaked showing he did lie about it?
Oh wait, that was Hillary Clinton and John Podesta.

Remember when Donald Trump got $145 million from shareholders of the uranium company sold to the Russians?
Oh wait, that was Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation.

Remember when Donald Trump accepted millions in donations from Russian oligarchs like the chairman of a company that's part of the Russian Nuclear Research Cluster, the wife of the mayor of Moscow and a close pal of Putin's?
Oh wait, that was the Clinton Foundation.

Remember when Donald Trump failed to disclose all those donations before becoming the Secretary of State, and it was only found out when a journalist
went through Canadian tax records?
Oh wait, that was Hillary Clinton

OOPS....

*God bless America!*

World Series Pitch - 18 Years Ago

Wish we were this patriotic now. Most people are not aware that a secret service guy dressed as an umpire the night President Bush threw out the pitch during the 2001 World Series at Yankee Stadium. Great story!!

Remember this was just after 9/11...................

This is our country at one of its finest moments ....

If you don't do anything else today, just watch this.... it's great !!!

THE RAILROAD GAUGE HISTORY LESSON

This must be reviewed periodically to understand why we live in our current situation.
This is a history lesson that’s well worth reading… and the conclusion is obviously correct!

Railroad Tracks

The Canadian and U.S. Standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches.

That's an exceedingly odd number.

Why was that gauge used?

Because that's the way they built them in England, and English expatriates designed the U.S. Railroads.

Why did the English build them like that?

Because the first rail lines were built by the same people who built the pre-railroad tramways, and that's the gauge they used.

Why did 'they' use that gauge then?

Because the people who built the tramways used the same jigs and tools that they had used for building wagons, which used that wheel spacing.

Why did the wagons have that particular Odd wheel spacing?

Well, if they tried to use any other spacing, the wagon wheels would break on some of the old, long distance roads in England, because that's the spacing of the wheel ruts.

So, who built those old rutted roads?

Imperial Rome built the first long distance roads in Europe (including England) for their legions. Those roads have been used ever since.

And the ruts in the roads?

Roman war chariots formed the initial ruts, which everyone else had to match for fear of destroying their wagon wheels.

Since the chariots were made for Imperial Rome, they were all alike in the matter of wheel spacing.

Therefore, the United States and Canadian standard railroad gauge of 4 feet, 8.5 inches is derived from the original specifications for an Imperial Roman war chariot.

In other words, bureaucracies live forever.

So the next time you are handed a specification, procedure, or process, and wonder, 'What horse's ass came up with this?', you may be exactly right.

Imperial Roman army chariots were made just wide enough to accommodate the rear ends of two war horses.

Now, the twist to the story:

When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on its launch pad, you will notice that there are two big booster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank. These are solid rocket boosters, or SRBs. The SRBs are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah.

The engineers who designed the SRBs would have preferred to make them a bit larger, but the SRBs had to be shipped by train from the factory to the launch site.

The railroad line from the factory happens to run through a tunnel in the mountains and the SRBs had to fit through that tunnel.The tunnel is slightly wider than the railroad track, and the railroad track, as you now know, is about as wide as two horses' behinds.

So, a major Space Shuttle design feature of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse's ass. And you thought being a horse's ass wasn't i

Part 2

So, a major Space Shuttle design feature of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse's ass. And you thought being a horse's ass wasn't important! Now you know, Horses' Asses control almost everything.


Explains a whole lot of stuff, doesn't it?

Have a Wonderful Day!
