I have been regular, listening to Glenn Beck and Mark Levin in the past and enjoyed their musings, analysis, postings. Then they got behind Cruz they made me wonder.
After Trump fought for and won the nomination, they went nuts. Successful businessman, family man, one seeing the derailment of Regan's GOP into RATs ditch became the enemy of these "big mouths". They disregarded the support of majority of disenchanted population, they "know better" - he is not "good enough conservative". I gather he is supposed to be as conservative as establishment republicans, who shafted recent Tea Party elected reps into the garbage bin of GOP - the branch of Uniparty, who let Obama get away with dismantling US and building Caliphate.
They are getting behind who? Lying Ted Cruz who proved himself to be weird proselytizing "Christian" of Seven Mountain Dominionist Church and with all the baggage and twists during the primaries. They still stick to him and can't get over that Cruz did not succeeded in continuing the line of ineligible Presidents.
They, media and establishment seem to overlook the "small" problem that Obama and Cruz are not NATURAL BORN CITIZENS as defined by founding fathers. Do we need another, even more complicated Cuban, Canadian destroyer of US? Wasn't Obama enough to demonstrate how wise were the Founding Fathers in defining that important requirement not to have foreigner at the ruder? The silence of media and covering up ineligibility is deafening. But attacks on "birthers" are plenty, so shut up and enjoy the "politics". Vote for another phony. If not we, Becks, Levins, et al will help to elect crooked Hillary, RAT Supreme Court and finish the conversion of US into paradise like Cuba, N. Korea, Venezuela....
Is Trump perfect, conservative, angel, savior of all? Can't guarantee, but we are at the choice now Hillary or Trump. Compare past of both and we have the choice of really crooked politician vs. patriotic businessman who sees the present path to destruction and is offering some solutions to prevent that and to shake up the media/politician's cabal. To stop the march to socialist hell, the choice is clear - Donald J. Trump.
Beck and Levin do not seem to get that we are at the threshold of irreversible path to destruction if enabling and electing another, more crooked Clinton. Frankly, I and many others had enough of their screeching and proselytizing and stopped to tune into their programs. It is just amazing to see how some "conservatives" are turning against people's choice and trying to subvert candidate that people and reluctant party elected to represent in the next Presidential election.
Here is the chance to "fix" the rotten establishment and get the US back on track to greatness again, but we have unprecedented efforts of "Republicans" to destroy own frontrunner and our final surrender to Uniparty establishment to keep march of destruction into New World Order.
Looks like BeckLevins are losing big with their audiences. Cable network (Optimum in NE) just dropped Blaze from their channel lineup - The Blaze is no longer available.
I hope that Trump will replace bunch of Not4Trumps with millions of people who see what has happened under ineligible command and shake the establishment and bring the Freedom and Great America back.
Bye, bye, Becks, Levins, National Review and wake up before is too late!
Well... bye.
How much debt do you carry in your life? I carry zero debt, which is why my family can live well. There are no interest payments in my budget.
We are in debt to the tune of $65,500 for each living man, woman & child in United States. The cost of servicing this debt (also known as interest) will exceed total military budget in a decade or less.
Yes, if we are attacked, such as on 911, we must respond quickly and decisively. Then get out. No foreign nation building whatsoever. Because we are essentially a bankrupt country by standard accounting practice.
Very good post! Also see my post #82.
Apparently all their talk about “God” is just talk, too.
They preach and pray, then have a fit when Gd’s will is not theirs.
If the Lord wanted Cruz, then Cruz would’ve won. All of the preacher-types who are having a tantrum about his loss are actually saying, “*I* know better than Gd!”
I saw another freeper post, “if God wanted Ted Cruz to be President, he would have been born here”.
Ted really took on too much of the Jimmy Swaggart act for my comfort.
As to the burden of interest, it occurred to me nearly fifty years ago when I was graduating college as a history major (many trillions of national debt ago/ Obozo Akhbar!) that the United States is destined to repudiate that debt. Our politicians love to spend money and hate to raise taxes on ordinary voters for obvious reasons. People and nations holding T-Bills will be caught holding the bag. We now owe (for PAST unfunded expenditures for whatever purposes) nearly $20 trillion. We are also committed to future unfunded expenditures for Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid in gigantic amounts.
The good news in all this? Once we effectively bankrupt as a nation, we will be on the same kind of fiscally responsible program as that of your family. No one in his, her or its right mind will buy US T-Bills once we have demonstrated a willingness to repudiate that debt. As a nation, we will again learn to understand the concept of "Can't afford it!" We will actually have to prioritize our nation's spending habits. Sell the bulk of the utterly unnecessary humongous amounts of land owned by the federales that strangles the economies of our western states. Put the proceeds in a genuine iron-clad trust fund for actually NECESSARY expenditures starting with military and care of the elderly (like me). Make the trust EARN money by prudent investment practices.
Abolish each and every unnecessary government agency and program: BATFE, EPA, Energy Department, Education Department, Labor Department, Commerce Department, Civil Rights Division of Justice, and set a goal of abolishing a department or agency or major program each day until we have gotten rid of about 80% of the fedgov monstrosity.
Apply all savings to paying down the debt (if we think we can). Scrupulously avoid any further accumulation of debt. Abolish or severely reduce as many taxes on ordinary folk as possible once the ship is righted. Amend the constitution as necessary or desirable to prevent future accumulation of debt.
The courts have begun to decide that they somehow have jurisdiction to order governments to tax and spend on pet projects of the left. When we again have a genuinely American POTUS, abolish all existing fedcourts to get rid of the judges. Have Congress enact a new Judiciary Act to allow the appointment an entire new group of "judges" under a different name to replace the "judges" being retired. We may have to pay the old judges for life but we don't have to put up with their judicial evils. Call the new "judges" something like "presiding judicial officials." Overwhelm the SCOTUS justices by adding about nine new and sound justices. That should cause Ginsberg, Breyer, Sotomayor and, maybe, even Kagan to collectively drop dead. If so, replace them too.
Once we have taken these giant and painful steps, we can rebuild our own country. Then and only then will every American join your family in living well.
Ronald Reagan had no intention of rebuilding Russia and the former soviet satellites after he caused the downfall of same (without firing a single shot just by revving up an arms race which the soviet marxist economy could not afford). Those suffering in the gulag were freed without our wasting our resources on rebuilding Russia. The freeing of the gulag was well worth doing. A side benefit was some major future savings on wars and military expenses related to soviet schemes. It was good business.
Each of the ethnic groups in our country has its own traditions and from those traditions we weave an American tradition. Your home page indicates that you emigrated here from India which suggests many quite desirable character traits of responsible and diligent behavior, thrift, business acumen and a respect for learning. You bring that to us. You came here and stayed because you must have found in our existing civilization (however flawed) adequate reasons to do so.
Nonetheless, for good or for ill, we have our own traditions. One of them is an aggressive military tradition. George Washington, Mad Anthony Wayne, Light Horse Harry Lee, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Nathan Bedford Forrest, Ulysses Grant, William Sherman, Alfred Thayer Mahan, Black Jack Pershing, Douglas MacArthur, George S. Patton, Jr., Omar Bradley, Bull Halsey, Chester Nimitz, Ernest King, Lewis "Chesty" Puller and many other fighting generals and heroic enlisted men like Sergeant York and Audie Murphy. As we must learn from you, so you would be wise to learn from us.
To understand people like beck etc is very easy. Just understand prostitution. Keep in mind that even the most enthusiastic prostitute spends a relatively small amount of time en flagrante delicto. So it is with the chattering hookers of the right. They may muse about article V, or woodrow wilson, but when it becomes time to satisfy the johns who are paying for their upkeep, they deliver. In the case of the chattering hookers of the right, their johns are the political establishment.
So their sometimes hard to reconcile behavior is very easy to understand when you come to recognize that they’re just turning a trick.
Women should not be allowed in combat (at the very least). The draft is selective slavery but I would see it return before approving women in combat. OTOH, there is nothing wrong with soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen being paid and treated at least as well (and better) than civilian government clerks. No POTUS should ever again be allowed to behave like Lyndon Johnson or Nixon drafting men who were reluctant to go and to smugly cop an attitude of "you will go where we send you for as long as we demand or you will be jailed. My father and all three uncles enlisted voluntarily on 12/8/41. One uncle was killed when his destroyer was sunk by a German U-Boat off Salerno. The others survived.
There is nothing wrong with giving young men the freedom to choose military service or not. The politicians should have to plead with them since it is the young men whose lives are at risk. That said, if we take the Maoists out of control of gummint edjumaksshun, we can again raise patriots eager to serve in causes that appeal to their sense of patriotism and country.
I have no interest in "the timeless wars of others." The others can die in those causes. If the camel jockeys only killed each other, I would say: Have at it! Save us the trouble! But they behead Christians and CRUCIFY Christian children for refusing to convert to the religion of the desert child molester. And when they blow themselves up they take a lot of us with them. They love death so much? Let's help them die!
When called for, strike them suddenly, brutally, memorably and effectively, taking whatever assets from them as are necessary to pay every nickel of expense incurred. Then promptly get the hell out. Repeat as often as necessary until they learn the lesson of not crossing us.
Finally, this cliche about being "the world's policeman," that, like "national self determination" and "national liberation" is a Cold War era communist cliche normally used to demoralize the American public. I do not suggest that you are a communist but rather that you are not being a practical patriot in this time any more than Neville Chamberlain was in his time.
Besides getting interesting jobs in design and manufacture of heavy machinery, main reason I stayed is because of easy access to numerous magnificent golf courses in US. Few other countries can boast that.
And yes, the government is way too much bloated. Too many dis-incentives to work because of too many freebies by the government.
I feel the same ‘no war’ way regarding the Mid East and Far East. Would you also feel your same way about wiping out China if they took over the China Sea? Regards,
Also keep in mind historical superpowers met their demise not at the hands of enemy fire-power, but because of over-spending and debt.
I just did.
“Any food products Made in Mexico carry with them a health risk.”
Not always. There are several large Amish farm communities in Mexico that produce food that is sold in the US. Their farming practices are what they were in the US.
I agee. I do give credit to Limbaugh for encouraging entrepreneurship. I started listening to him in the 1990’s and he always pushed creating business opportunities for yourself. I took the leap into my own business and away from a steady paycheck in 1996. Best decision I ever made , second only to marrying my sweet Baboo.
Sadly disappointed in Rush since then. I always had the feeling that he secretly roots for the other side, because he needs that enemy to battle. If things are going great, who needs him?
TRUMP WENT TO MEXICO
but wait, he doesn’t speak Spanish
but wait, he speaks against Mexico a lot
but wait, he should be afraid because he is not popular
wait no longer
WHAT TIME IS IT?
ITS TRUMP TIME.
As per The Art of War, it’s good to overestimate the enemy. However, as a Trump supporter, I lmao at the weakness of dead Cruz.
Hell yes
If we could get 30% of the patriot community to stand up, right now, lace up the Reeboks and grab the pickets signs, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in. But getting people up off the couch to do anything other than go to BW3 to catch the game is dang near impossible.
We could fix the nation using the First Amendment if we'd just do it. Instead, we wait for someone else to do it for us.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho! God Bless Texas!
I meant that you should address your question directly to Mark. You posted to Lodi90.
Sorry if I sounded snippy. Didn’t mean to.
