It's Happy Fun Time Day!

Going to be doing Army Stuff all weekend.  Might I suggest a fresh selection from the blogroll?

Because we all know Twitter is going to ban you just in time for the 2020 election

So...  Social Galactic.  It's in beta stage right now.  Go check it out. 

Words of Wisdom

There's long been a short list of things to do if you want to avoid living in poverty:

1)  Don't do drugs.
2)  Graduate high school.
3)  Wait until you're married to have kids.

All of those imply a modicum of self control.  Robert McCain has another list that's very similar:

1)  Work Hard.
2)  Live Cheap.
3)  Save your money.

The rest of his post is a refutation of a socialist who is living large of of capitalism.  But that's the case with all socialists, isn't it?  They have to cannibalize a capitalist economy in order to fund their socialist pipe dream.  Louder with Crowder once pointed out that capitalism doesn't require a billionaire to exist in order for their system to function, while socialism, who's adherents demonize the rich, require millionaires and billionaires to exist in order to fund their immoral system.

And as an aside, take a good look at the photo of that socialist twink, Anand Giridharadas.  Hair done just so, face made up, wearing a MOTORCYCLE JACKET that I guarantee hasn't seen one second of actual ride time.  This is a guy living large like a fat tick on a well-fed dog.  But like all socialists, he'll kill the dog, and then blame the dog for not paying it's fair share, while he continues to live large on the efforts of others.

After all, that's what the adherents of socialism all want.  Hell, Hugo Chavez was worth billions, and Venezuela is a socialist hellhole of poverty and despair.  All those socialists think that they're going to be Hugo Chavez, and they have no problem with we Normal Americans being forced to eat our pets to survive as long as they can continue to wear fancy leather jackets and be applauded by their peers for being so noble.

The simple truth is that digging your way out of poverty requires a few simple rules, and a modicum of self control.  I've gone from eating Top Ramen three meals a day to driving a new car, having a motorcycle, living a happy life and eating damn well.  And I did it with self control and NOT demanding that others pay my way.

But that's the rub, innit?  Socialists don't have much self control at all with other people's money, and they always demand that someone else pay their way.

This is my shocked face. Look how shocked I am.

People knew that Democrat Justin Fairfax, the Lt Governor of Virginia, was a rape-y rapist before he got elected.

The woman who has accused Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax (D) of sexual assault informed Rep. Bobby Scott (D-Va.) of the incident more than a year ago, an aide told The Hill on Wednesday. 

An aide to Scott told The Hill that Vanessa Tyson first reached out to the congressman in October 2017 to express concerns about Fairfax, who was then a candidate for lieutenant governor. 

Tyson sent another message to the congressman that November expressing a desire to speak with Scott about the issue, an aide said.

Yep, that's the same rapist who likes to shout out "FUCK THAT BITCH!" when discussing the woman he raped.  SJWs always project.  That's SJW Rule #3.  If they're accusing you of being rapists, you should probably start digging into their past and see when they raped or sexually assaulted someone.

I was there in Virginia while the election was going on, and I remember listening to the adverts and the interviews and all the radio speeches, and the thing that I remember most is how creeped out I got from the Democrat side.  Ed Gillespie was no great thing.  He was a milquetoast, squishy "moderate" who thought that just being nice would get him a win.  But Northam and all the Democrats who got on the radio made my skin crawl.  Northam especially was this smarmy, lecturing, arrogant asshole from top to bottom, and it just got worse from there.  I think this whole episode of disaster and being hung by your own rules couldn't happen to a better group of arrogant, elitist, out-of-touch Marxists.  But of course, the Virginia GOP is too stupid to take advantage of it.

Had our priest over for dinner last night

Lots of food.  Then cigars.  Then dessert.  Then more talking.  Got to bed far too late.  So you might get shorted here today, because I didn't wake up in time for my usual news perusal.

Truth

I loved the fact that Trump took the National Socialist Democrat Worker's Party head on during the SOTU speech.

The SOTU speech

Trump:  Nearly 5 million people have been lifted off of food stamps!

Democrats wearing white:  *refuse to clap*

Well, I guess I see who their base is, right?

Trump:  Hispanic and black unemployment is at it's lowest in recorded history!

All Democrats:  *refuse to clap*

That's a good look for them.

UPDATE:  I see the Democrats are going with their tried and true look of sitting on their hands and looking pissed off at America's success.

UPDATE 2:  OH MY GOD THE GOP IS CHANTING "USA" AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE PISSED!  I'm laughing my ass off!

UPDATE 3:  Cory Booker looks like he's desperately trying to keep his anal plug from popping out.

UPDATE 4:  The googly-eyed socialist, Ocasio-Cortez, can't even clap for putting sex traffickers behind bars.  Telling.

UPDATE 5:  Trump sucks with a Tele-Prom-Ter.  He does.  The speech is good, but the delivery is stilted.

UPDATE 6:  Granny Rictus' dentures must be flopping around again.  She keeps trying to put them back into place.  Or maybe Trump has gotten her so pissed of that she's chewing on the inside of her mouth.  I hope it's option 2.

UPDATE 7:  I'm looking at the ribbons on the vet who helped liberate Dachau.  This is an honest to god war hero, and he's got a rather common set of ribbons.  I think the modern day Army could use a little lesson from that.  The Marines have it more right - AWARDS are for special situations.  You need to bust your butt for an award.  Stop making the Army look like 3rd World generals.

It was a good speech, but the teleprompter reading drove me up the wall.  Half an hour speech more or less, which is far, far better than the droning of Obama or GWB.  And it jabbed all the right people at the right time.

Well &*^#

It seems like everything is getting me pissed off these days.  Tonight it was the realization that the Ragin' Mrs., in her infinite ability to take what works and try to improve it, put an "ancient" salt into the spice mix I was using to make sweet Italian sausage.  It's some fancy salt that tastes much saltier than regular salt.  And now I have six pounds of sausage that are saltier than the ocean, that give me indigestion from eating them.

She keeps insisting that she can use them to make various dishes, but I'm about to just throw it all away and never look at it again.

If the GOP were smart.... hell, I should just stop there.

They would help Howard Schultz get into the race as an independent.  It would help fracture the Democrat Party, which has long been taken over by far-Left Marxists, perverts, and baby-murdering psychos.  Anyone who can help yank it back to the middle can only be a good thing.  But Glenn Reynolds has it right:

The parties’ biggest fear isn’t that someone from the other party will win. It’s that someone from outside the Beltway Uniparty will win.

And the GOP no longer represents it's own voters, as proven by their complete and utter refusal to do anything about border security, spending, or any of the ideas it claims to support when they had the opportunity.

Covington kids punch back

This is so awesome, I want to rub it all over my body and go streaking at an NHL game.

Attorneys representing Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann and his family indicated on Friday that they have sent letters for potential lawsuits to over 50 entities ranging from Democratic politicians to celebrities to media figures.

YES!  Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes!  Sue the bastards, hit them where it hurts, and make them bleed!  It's about damn time that someone finally yanked on the rope that these anti-American shitwads have used to fashion their nooses!

I don't just want that list of people sued, I want them excoriated on the public square for their hatred and inhumanity.  They can all go out of business, and then they can all go to hell.

I know my wife is going to heaven

Because she has to put up with my BS.  She just got done making some Monte Christo-type sammiches for lunch, and topped them with an over-easy egg.  So we sat down to eat some lunch.

Me:  Yeah, this is a really good Monte Carlo type sammich!

Her:  Christo.  Monte Christo.

Me:  Oh, right.  Carlo is the car, Christo is the sammich.

Her:  Just think of the Count.

Me:  What does Sesame Street have to do with a sammich?

Her:   ......

Me:  ONE!  ONE husband beaten with a rolling pin!  Ah ah ah aaaaaaaah!

Her (rubbing her forehead):  I love you, honey.

I'm going to a friend's house this afternoon for good food and good company.  Apparently they'll be watching a football game too.  I'll be outside with a cigar and a glass of brandy, because fuck the NFL sideways with a chainsaw.  The biggest problem I have with the Super Turd Bowl is that someone is going to win it.

The blunt truth: Democrats have no problem murdering babies

In fact, they're actively working to murder as many babies as possible.



Here's my question, for anyone who might be on the fence - given that the Democrat Party has no problem murdering babies just because they're inconvenient, what in the world makes anyone think that the Democrat Party wouldn't round you up, put you in a box car and ship you off to a death camp once you become "inconvenient" to them?

Sigh

People...  I don't know if you've heard about this recently, but...  it's cold.

Tens of millions of Americans braved Arctic-like temperatures on Thursday as low as minus 56 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 49 Celsius) that paralyzed the U.S. Midwest and were blamed for at least 21 deaths.

When the Ragin' Mrs. and I first got to Wisconsin, it got to -46 degrees.  And we moved there from Puerto Rico.  Yet, somehow, we knew enough to NOT go outside without appropriate clothing.

Yes, people have been found dead.  I got that.  Let me be heartless right here, m'kay?  I'm going straight to the "Ohmygodhowcouldyousaythat" zone.

If people get drunk and wander outside in -50 degrees, they probably deserved to die.

If people get high, crawl into an abandoned house and freeze to death, then I'm going to guess that they weren't really a contributing member of society.

I do feel sorry for the older folks with dementia who went outside in their underoos and froze to death.  I have no idea what they must have gone through, other than it was painful.  But if you're one of those people who died because you wanted to pull a stupid prank, or you got drunk and locked yourself out of your house, or you're a crackhead who won't go to a shelter because they won't let you smoke crack in there, and you end up a human popsicle?

Well...  that's what is called natural selection, folks.  The stupid people die off, and makes the human race smarter by their subtraction.

Let the hate mail commence.

Running

Put some new insoles in my running shoes.  Tried them out for about a mile.  Everything seems to be in order, with no new pain or stabbing sensations in my foot.

I might just be back to running.  Lightly, at first.  But running nonetheless.  Oh happy day!

I know why I drive a small car

Because if I had a big truck, I'd be ramming people off the road.  Like the slack-jawed crackhead who tailgated me for miles as I was following behind a work truck who was doing the speedlimit.  It wasn't just the tailgating, it was the passing me (on a double-yellow line) only to do a hard braking, swerving maneuver once you realized that I had a GINORMOUS FUCKING BUCKET TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME, which you were too oblivious to notice prior to attempting to illegally pass me, on a double yellow line, while flying past an intersection.

That mouth-breathing fucking retard put my life in danger, plus the lives of everyone else around him, and for what?  To get to where he was going five seconds sooner? 

If I had a truck, I would have run him off the road.  As it is, my car damn near had a stripe going down the side of it.  And yeah, I followed him a for a good long while, with my middle finger getting quite a bit of air-time.  I wanted that drooling fuckwit to pull over, but he wouldn't.  He just stomped on the gas.  Like his crappy, pathetic piece of shit hoopdy can outrun me.  Uh, no, there's something called maintenance that needs to happen with a car in order for it to function properly.  I finally decided that I didn't want to be late for dinner.  My appetite was more important to me than dragging this fucking moron out of his car and beating him with a tire iron, but it was a close thing.

Gah.  Poverty is a culture, people.  So is acting that fucking selfishly. 

For all the idiots out there saying that Climate Change is going to kill us all

Well, maybe, maybe not, but it's not like it was for the majority of this planet's history.



I know I'm preaching to the choir on a lot of this, but take the time to educate the people around you.

Robert Mueller is a dirty, crooked, corrupt cop, and has been for decades

That's why he was such an Obama favorite.  Barry O'Bumblefuck knew that his dirty cop would do what Barry wanted him to do.

And all it took to bring Mueller around to doing the right thing was the threat of a contempt citation by an ultra-liberal federal judge who went to Yale Law School with the Clintons. 

Of course, that wasn’t the first time Mueller’s FBI tried to broom the scandal of the four framed men. In 2002, Mueller directed the G-men to oppose state pardons for the four men because the FBI’s own evidence that exonerated them was merely “fodder for cross-examination. 

Despite the FBI’s knowledge that the men, including Peter Limone, were innocent, Mueller’s FBI claimed to a state board that the incontrovertible exculpatory evidence “does not necessarily mean, however, that Limone or any of the other defendants is innocent – it merely means that they are entitled to a new trial.” 

By the way, one of the innocent men, Louie Greco, was in Florida the night of the murder he was falsely convicted of. One of the crooked Boston FBI agents (who died in prison in Oklahoma while facing murder charges in another gangland hit) later bragged to a local gangster about their brilliant railroad: 

“How does Louie Greco like going from Miami to death row? He wasn’t even there.”

Good lord, the FBI has been exposed as a bunch of Mafia thugs with badges, haven't they?

Kamala Harris, who slept her way to power in San Francisco, wants to take your guns

Don't listen to me on this.  Listen to her.

She’s just packing her speech with anti-gun keywords hoping to elicit the right response from anti-gun proponents, who’ll open their wallets to donate to her campaign. Much like she opened her legs to advance her career. 

Yep, I just went there. Send me your hate tweets.

No hate tweets here.  If Kamala Harris didn't have an extramarital affair with Willie Brown while he was mayor of San Fransicko, then nobody outside the Bay Area would know who the hell she is.  But because she slept her way to positions of power, and then got more power, now she's running for president.  Her qualifications are whoring herself out to men, and whoring herself out to Planned Parenthood.

She's like the female Barack Obama.  Which means the media is going to be masturbating as hard and fast as they can every time she's on screen.

Oh, you want to talk "smirking"?  Check out Harris' face every time she talks to someone who isn't worshipping at her feet.  Sneering, smirking, entitlement, and outright hatred and hostility radiate from her like heatwaves from the sun.  Remember, the Left hates you and wants you to die.  Kamala Harris, who slept her way to the top, can't even keep her hatred off her face.  She's counting on the hordes of people who hate you like she does to get her elected.

The Deep State protects its own

A Leftist judge refused to unseal documents that were used by the FBI to trash a whistleblower's house.  Because there's nothing...  INTIMIDATING....  about the FBI ransacking your house after you blow the whistle on the government covering up for Felonia von Pantsuit's crimes.  Nah.

A federal court is refusing to unseal the government documents that allowed the FBI to raid the home of an alleged recognized whistleblower last November. Judge Beth P. Gesner, the U.S. District Court of Maryland’s chief magistrate judge, "also sealed her justification for keeping the documents secret in a single-page Dec. 20 order," The Daily Caller reported. Gesner is a Clinton appointee.

Absolute bullshit.  And crap like this is why Trump won, and why he'll most likely win in 2020.  Because people are sick and tired of watching the unaccountable, politically connected criminals in Washington D.C. get away with crime after crime after crime, all while the rest of the country crumbles.

Rodger Stone had his house raided by the FBI live on the Clinton News Network.  Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton, who committed multiple felonies, walks around free.  THAT is why Trump is so popular.  And the political animals in D.C. know it, which is why they're trying so hard to tear him down.

I want to make one small little quibble here

Jorge Bergolio isn't fiddling while the Church burns.  He's doing his best to burn it to the ground, because he doesn't actually care about saving souls.

There is a church in Rome called the Church of Domine Quo Vadis (Latin for “Lord, where are You going?”). It is situated on the spot where the apocryphal Acts of Peter described a meeting occurred between St. Peter and Jesus. Peter was fleeing Rome and Nero’s persecution. On his way, Peter saw Jesus walking in the opposite direction. Peter asked Him, “Domine, quo vadis?” Jesus responded, “I am going to Rome to be crucified again.” Shamed, Peter returned to Rome and was crucified, upside down. 

Pope Francis, too, has abandoned his post… except he hasn’t done by leaving Rome. Instead, he has dawdled, fiddled, and worse. He must address Archbishop Viganò’s allegations about his personal conduct. And then he must take up the sins of the victims and the perpetrators, and, with the help of bishops, priests, religious, and laity, energetically, and with a sense of urgency, clean house.

A bunch of bishops, and most the cardinals here in America, don't want to clean house.  They enjoy using the laity's money to live the good life while having sex with young men and young boys.  Why would they want to clean house?  They would actually have to practice what they preach!  Can't have that, you know! 

There are good bishops in the USA, just as there are good diocese.  Right now I attend probably one of the most conservative diocese churches in the USA, albeit a Novus Ordo church.  However, the priest offers a Latin Mass every first Sunday, so that's what I go to.  But I'm lucky.  Other Catholics have to attend a church where the priests, bishops and archbishops all essentially care more about this world than the next.  And those Catholics....  are leaving.  In droves.

The so-called leadership of the Catholic Church in America are abandoning souls in favor of fancy mansions and gay sex. 

My priest has been open about the fact that the Catholic Church in America will most likely continue to shrink.  Maybe that's what it will take for the current leadership to finally be pushed out.  We'll see.  I don't have any good answers to the problems that I see coming at us like a freight train.  I can only pray, and act within my sphere of influence.  That's all anybody can do, I guess.
