I have always been told there are two things your never going to get out of this life alive: ‘Taxes and Death’ so it really doesn’t matter if it’s one minute or one second...if we know God and have faith in Him, we are ready...

My clock says ‘It’s morning in America!’

We didn’t just pull over the car and tell Barry to get out. We slammed the door shut behind him, dumped the clutch and in a cloud of burnt rubber left him a tiny dot in the rear-view mirror. Those tires have a lot of traction now too, foolish policies are getting reversed and things that needed attention are getting done.

Just a bunch of liberals claiming Trump will start WWIII. They did the same thing to Reagan, but not to Obama who had a war during every single day of his administration.

And at least a broken clock is honest twice a day.

Haven’t heard from these idiots in years, since last time we had a Republican president.

Ironically, they moved the clock back in the late 1990’s-under the Bubba administration. Very close to the same time that Clinton lackey, General Wesley Clark, ordered British General Mike Jackson to seize the Pristina airport, which was held by a Russian unit.

It was also fairly close to the 1995 missile scare in Russia. Russia’a aging radar system interpreted a Norwegian rocket as a precursor to a larger strategic attack. Allegedly, aides to Boris Yeltsin had activated the nuclear briefcase that accompanied the Russian president.

I wonder if those incidents were close enough to nuclear war for this phony group?

LOL. A Republican is back in office. The doomsday clock is back. I’m sure the old media will shortly discover homelessness and income inequality.

What, exactly, is an “Atomic Scientist”, anyway? I mean, is there a degree program somewhere? A certificate? A secret handshake?

From Watchmen

Janet Black: Doctor Manhattan as you know the Doomsday Clock is a symbolic clock face analogizing humankind's proximity to extinction, midnight representing the threat of nuclear war. As of now it stands at four minutes to midnight. Would you agree that we are that close to annihilation?

Jon Osterman: My father was a watch maker. He abandoned it when Einstein discovered time is relative. I would only agree that a symbolic clock is as nourishing to the intellect as photograph of oxygen to a drowning man.

So Obama gets elected and receives the Nobel Peace Prize ... for no apparent reason. Trump gets elected and suddenly we’re closer to doomsday. Whatever.
