Trump Goes Unquoted

 “If the United States has $40 billion to send to Ukraine, we should be able to do whatever it takes to keep our children safe at home. We spent trillions in Iraq, trillions in Afghanistan, and got nothing. Before we nation-build the rest of the world, we should be building safe schools for our own children in our own nation.” 

So said Donald Trump at the NRA Convention in Houston yesterday. But nobody on the left repeats this because all they want from him is scandal and corruption.

Sorry Mom and Dad, It's On You

According to the mother of the teen-age gunman who shot 19 adorable and innocent children in cold blood, in the face, as he looked straight into their pleading, tearful eyes, her son was "not violent." She was also quoted as saying she was "surprised " by what he did and that she was "not feeling very well right now" and was "upset." Oh gee.

Today the good, sweet, decent townsfolk of Uvalde, Texas are comforting her and "not blaming her." Those are some really nice people. I could not be one of them since I strongly disagree. If not Mom and Dad, then who is to blame? 

Every Republican according to my husband's demented nephew Keith. Every member of the NRA. Any hunter with a rifle, according to all Democrats. And let's not forget everyone who owns a gun for self-defense that they keep locked in a drawer or in a box under the bed. 

Being a mother myself, I'm sticking with Mom and Dad, if for nothing else but withholding their love, offering no support, abandoning him and turning the other cheek despite warning signs like his cutting himself and having no friends. I wonder what drugs Mom was using that allowed her to believe her son was not violent. I might need some of those just to get through the next few weeks processing what he did to the 16,000 residents of Uvalde and to every the student and teacher in America.

Delusional Democrats

My husband's fat, brain-washed nephew Keith posted the usual loony left inanities on Facebook yesterday, as he always does since he is a paid foot-soldier in their army, working for some grass roots pols in his little corner of the world, I forget where but it's nowhere good. Anyway, Keith wrote that the tragic shooting in Uvalde, Texas was done by Republicans who "all have blood on their hands." He wrote, "Republicans pulled the trigger, no doubt about it."

What an ass, and I don't just mean how big his is, which is mammoth. 

I am a Republican, having morphed into one after many years as a Democrat and then as an Independent, and I was not in Texas at the time. In fact, I have never even been to Texas. Also, I don't own a gun, don't like guns, and have never seen a gun in person. My husband also votes Republican and he was home in Maine at the time of the shooting. He also does not like guns and would never own one. 

Several of my friends vote Republican and none of them travelled to Texas, do not own guns, do not belong to the NRA or have rifles or anything like that.

That dumb-ox Keith is delusional (characterized by or holding idiosyncratic beliefs or impressions that are contradicted by reality or rational argument, typically as a symptom of mental disorder)!

Ricky Gervais Says What Most People Think

A new Netflix special causing a stir gives British comic Ricky Gervais a bare stage and an hour and 19 minutes to say whatever the heck he wants. Much of it is funny, while some of it is hard to take. In fact, I had to turn it off halfway through because some content concerning cats was a bit too graphic for my tastes.

But the bit he does before that about transgenders is hysterical, and the appreciative audience thought so too. This of course is the part that's making the news, since it is decidedly not woke. Despite that, it's how most people feel in their hearts, not counting the small percent who call themselves transgender or aspire to be so, and maybe their parents.

Ricky mocks the belief that women can have penises. He mocks men in dresses using women's public bathrooms. He mocks pronouns, as if by calling a man "she" or "her" makes everything just fine. He points out all the inane things that make up the whole transgender "movement," and somehow gets away with it. Or he has so far; only time will tell.

Surely George Carlin, Joan Rivers and Don Rickles are laughing in Heaven. They're better off there, since here on Earth they would definitely all be cancelled. 

 

The Lies They Tell Us

First there was Covid, and now Monkeypox. Obviously God is pissed! And who could blame Him?

* Teaching impressionable kindergarteners that "sometimes the doctors make mistakes when they assign our gender at birth" has become the clarion call of many on the left. This is nothing short of child abuse at the hands of parents and teachers who condone dispensing puberty-blockers to innocent youngsters in order to swell the ranks of transgenders and increase the power of the Democrats.

* Spreading the false notion that obesity is okay through the concept of "fat acceptance" is a sick and twisted ploy of all the corporations that manufacture and package the poisons that line the shelves of our supermarkets, and secondarily the diet and weight-loss industry. The truth is that being fat is ugly and unhealthy.

* Selling the mass murder of unborn children as "a woman's right to choose" and linking abortion to "women's health" is sneaky and untrue. Claiming that poor women will have no options if abortion is made illegal is downright false, since several "morning-after" pills are already on the market and available at the local pharmacy. Simply swallowing a pill following sexual intercourse to prevent unwanted pregnancy is far easier and cheaper than having a surgical procedure several months down the line.

* Allowing illegal aliens to swarm our southern border, thereby destroying the local economy of the small towns located along it, is a heinous crime with only one goal: more Democrat voters. This practice is presented to the weak-minded as "helping" people who are escaping oppression while ignoring the alarming rise in drugs entering America and fueling the rise of fentanyl overdoses. 

All we can do is vote out those who endorse harmful policies and hope it's not too late to make America great again.

COVID Lessons

Happily, COVID has left our home. It spent nine days with us and was a crummy guest causing us great inconvenience, especially my husband who actually had it living in his body. Hopefully it will not return, although by all reports it might since I have never had it and thus remain a target despite all vaccines and boosters. 

During our COVID week we both took many nasal swab tests. In fact, Mitch and I are now experts at doing so. We also have lots of tests left over for future visits, or if we miss the daily swabbing.

Naturally we could not sleep in the same bed, so I moved into the guest room and discovered how very uncomfortable the bed in there is. I now have remorse for all the guests we have forced to sleep in it over the years and will be buying a new guest bed immediately. So I guess you could say that COVID did one good thing!

A few of the bad things were we could not see our son, or go out anywhere since we had to quarantine. We also had to cancel plans with an old friend who was visiting Maine and was going to stop by for brunch.  And of course no hugging my husband, or anything along those lines. This forced us to watch a lot of TV, and as you know that's never good. There's the war in Ukraine or all the bald-faced liars on the news stations, inane sitcoms or police dramas, and commercials for medicine and insurance. 

Last night we watched an episode of SVU in which a woman was abducted from a bakery by a serial murderer and tortured and ultimately killed, although we turned it off long before her untimely end. Still, I couldn't sleep, what with the bad bed and the scene where the abducted woman was tied up and stuffed in the guy's car trunk begging him to let her go, and he just laughed.

Thankfully Mitch tested negative this morning, as did I once again. Now we are free to rejoin society until it comes back. I hope it doesn't, and I also hope that I don't get abducted. I am never going to a bakery ever again.

Thanks for Nothing, Hillary

Surprise, surprise! It turns out that Hillary Clinton gave the go-ahead to her campaign manager, Robbie Mook, to leak false information concerning Donald Trump's alleged "connections" with Russia.

The mainstream media then intentionally and ruthlessly destroyed President Trump with non-stop stories based on deception, propaganda and lies so the Democrats could elect the cognitively-impaired Biden as their puppet. 

Face it: Anyone who believes that Joe Biden, who lost two attempted presidential runs when he was young and still had all his marbles, and then on his third attempt stayed homed and refused to campaign, got the most votes in history, is too far gone to reason with. 

And now the grossly incompetent Kamala Harris, who got no support from the American voters during the Democratic primary race so dropped out early, is just one heartbeat away from becoming the President and Commander-in-Chief.
