Klueless Tim Kaine - Hillary's organ grinder's monkey

Could Hillary Clinton’s vice-presidential running mate have made it any clearer that he’s an idiot than he did in the opening of his Convention acceptance speech?

“Here’s the thing. Most people, when they run for president, they don’t just say ‘believe me,’” Kaine said, mimicking Trump. “They respect you enough to tell you how they will get things done.”*

Hmmm. Let’s take that at face value, Mr. Kaine. Do you really think we’ve forgotten Obamanation’s never-ending vague campaign platitudes of “Hope” and “Change you can believe in?” I don’t remember a lot of specifics or detailed plans in anything Obama campaigned on.

Kaine’s inane commentary continued with his saying over and over how much he and fellow Democrats “trust Hillary.”** Really? You’re saying you trust a woman who’s over and over been proven to be a liar? If so, then you are telling me that you’re a gullible buffoon and not a statesman worthy of my vote.

But, Kaine just kept on with the self-inflicted verbal wounding by mocking Republican nominee Donald Trump. Mocking, mind you! Oh, that’s statesmanlike. (Rolls eyes). In childish tone, Kaine said Trump says, “Believe me.” It’s going to be great, believe me.”** To try that tactic is poor salesmanship, Mr. Kaine. As proof, I refer you back to:

  • the Prince of Pap and Platitudes Obama who was elected president with such empty phrases as “Hope” and “Change you can believe in;” to say nothing of 
  • Kaine's running mate Hillary who claimed she landed in Bosnia “under sniper fire.” Yet reporters who covered that trip stated that “far from running to an airport building with their heads down, Clinton and her party were greeted on the tarmac by smiling U.S. and Bosnian officials. An 8-year-old Muslim girl, Emina Bicakcic, read a poem in English. An Associated Press photograph of the greeting ceremony, above, shows a smiling Clinton bending down to receive a kiss.”**

And yet, you’re passionately going to believe her over Trump? Because she's believable? Really? Seriously?

Sure, says Kaine. He went on to say, “Let me tell you why [he] trusts Hillary Clinton. First, she’s consistent.” [Emphasis added.] Are you freaking kidding me? The only thing Hillary Clinton is consistent as is telling tall tales. For example, Bill Clinton got $12 million for his memoirs and Good Ol’ Hill got $8 million for hers. Both are people that have repeated claimed under oath that they can’t remember anything detailed about much of anything put to scrutiny. (See above re Bosnia sniper fire.)

Kaine’s ridiculously misguided praise continued with “As secretary of state, she implemented tough sanctions against Iran to pave the way for a diplomatic breakthrough to curtail a nuclear weapons program.” Firstly, there’s Hillary’s record of taking..shall we say, questionable…donations from middle eastern countries not exactly friendly to the US for unprecedented access to otherwise unaccessible people or votes. Secondly, the outright “rolling over” and letting Iran get unprecedented access to develop nuclear weaponry…oh, excuse me; liberals label that nuclear energy could hardly be called a “diplomatic breakthrough.” It would more accurately be termed a “diplomatic disaster.”
Kaine has full confidence that Hillary “will defend and build on Wall Street reform.” Yeah…right…. Hillary’s the same person who paid only $1,000 for 10 cattle futures (normal cost $12,000) & in only 10 months miraculously turned it into $100,000 (a nice round number).*** Hell! If she’s that brilliant at investing money she’s wasting her life in government service. You “trust” that kind of person to further reform Wall Street? {Not that Wall Street needs any reform, thank you.]

Kaine just couldn’t resist furthering his acute case of hoof and mouth disease. Next he took on Donald Trump’s tax returns. Again in playground mentality tones, he mocked, “’There is nothing suspicious and my tax returns, believe me.’ …does anybody in this massive auditorium believe that Donald Trump has been paying his fair share of taxes?”

Any liberal Democrat who wants to bring up the honesty behind a candidate’s tax returns either has an incredibly poor memory or extremely poor salesmanship technique – given the likes of tax cheat Timothy Geithner who was Obama’s first Secretary of the Treasury. (You remember the Treasury - the folks who enforce the tax laws?) Geithner failed to pay taxes he owed (even though he surely must have known he owed them) until it became politically expedient [read appointment to Obama’s Cabinet] to pay them.****

Apparently Klueless Kaine forgot that even the liberal LA Times had to admit “Democrats are hypocrites when it comes to paying taxes”in a 2009 article by that title. In that article, it was pointed out that current VP Joe Biden “only gave an average of $369 a year to charity over the previous decade” yet rails at Republicans and Conservatives as being to greedy to give.

And, apparently Kaine has also conveniently forgot that the rabble-rousing windbag Charles B. Rangel (Dem Rep. from N.Y.) who - it should be pointed out - was also chairman of that supreme tax-writing mob in the Washington, the House Ways and Means Committee, was under investigation for tax evasion. So much so, in fact, he had to take a temporary leave of absence from the committee while all this got “straightened out.”**** 

So, what was the outcome of Kaine’s ridiculously hypocritical commentary? The blue koolaide drinkers cheered him wildly. Not surprising. Those idiots would cheer a blind lobotomy patient for political office if they thought it meant more handouts and stealing individual liberties.


But to those of us truly thinking people, Kaine just comes across as another clueless liberal hypocrite that will tell a pack full of bald faced lies to anyone’s face they need to further their agenda. Just like an organ grinder's monkey will dance all he has to so he gets fed when the grinder stops.

The Next Time You Need a Cop, Call a ...

The stories are increasing in number –a Dunkin’ Donuts employee in Hartford, CT;an Arby’s in Pembroke Pines, FL; Chuck E. Cheese in Bowling Green, KY; Whataburger in Lewisville, TX; Starbucks in Philadelphia* and now at a Taco Bell in Phenix City, AL.** More and more fast food workers seem to be refusing to serve law enforcement officers.

Really? So, these young punks think they’re really making some kind of social statement by refusing service to those sworn and protect…. All this in the wake of that divisive, rabble rousing “Black Lives Matter” movement. (NOTE: Who the hell ever said they didn’t matter? But, one more time let me tell you that ALL lives matter! And…isn’t it interesting that in most every case at issue the black perp who got shot that started all this hysteria was involved in some kind of criminal activity right before dying at the hands of law enforcement? Coincidence? I think not. There's wisdom in the old saying that "if ya lie down wtih dogs ya get up with fleas." But, hell; why should facts and logic get in the way of mob psychology?)

So now these young fast food punks think that not only should they make a career type wage flipping burgers but now they also think they have the right to be rude and refuse to serve cops in uniform.

So, to those know-it-all punks refusing to serve cops because of their self-righteous indignation at law enforcement I say this; the next time your restaurant gets robbed or you wake up to the sounds of a burglar in your house or apartment or the next time you get carjacked, skip calling your local police or sheriff dept. Instead, whip out your cell phone and call your local Black Lives Matter activist. 
Maybe they’ll “protect and serve” you faster, better and more selflessly than your average law enforcement officer would.

I doubt they would. And something tells me that despite your looking down your nose at cops in your fast food restauratnt, you’ll still faster call a cop or sheriff and expect more protection and service from them than you will your local rabble rouser.

This is what you get when a community activist is elected president.

President of the United States Barry Obama, responding to last week’s horrific sniper attacks on Dallas, Texas police officers protecting a protest by “Black Lives Matter” activists, just couldn’t help returning to his community activist (aka "rabble rouser") roots.

Not that his implicit calls for stricter gun control laws is anything new. Hell, the sound of gunfire from a mass shooting has barely quieted and the gun smoke thinned before he starts beating that drum – every time. (“The President also made an implicit call for tighter gun restrictions, saying the carnage could have been mitigated if the killer or killers weren't carrying powerful weapons.”*)

And not that his condemnation of law enforcement is anything new. Hell, every time law enforcement shoots a black suspect or one dies in custody he’s instantly mouthing off about racist cops before he knows anything about the facts of the incident. (“After arriving in Poland in the early morning hours Friday, Obama went to his hotel and delivered a statement about two police-involved shootings this week, saying the episodes reflected persistent racial disparity.

“Citing statistics showing minorities are more likely to be pulled over, searched or shot at by police, Obama said it was incumbent on the country to aim for better -- including recognizing deep-seated biases that he said must be ‘rooted out.’

“…right now, the data shows that black folks are more vulnerable to these kinds of incidents. There is a particular burden that is being placed on a group of our fellow citizens."*)

That’s the kind of “leadership,” “crisis management” and “conflict resolution” you get when you elect a community activist President of the United States.

O = One
B = Big
A = Ass
M = Mistake,
A = America

Can liberal hypocrisy be any more obvious?

Liberals love to get their backs in the air anytime they feel someone with opposing values is - as they like to phrase it - forcing their values onto others. They're quick to get all bent outta shape about someone's religion, morality and certainly politics when it disagrees with theirs. And, heaven forbid, a person actually voice an opinion on those issues they disagree with then liberals usually have a complete coniption fit about that person being perceived as forcing their beliefs on others.

But, of course, with liberals, it's only supposed to be allowed to go one way - their way. 

Take for example this obituary that was published recently in the local newspaper. Imagine what said dead liberal would think if they were to read an obit by someone espousing Christianity, Conservativism, the Republican Party platform, marriage as one man one woman or some such opinions that they disagreed with? Oh, there'd be hell to pay, I'm sure.



"[Deceased person] passed away [X date] of [whatever cause of death]. [Their] condition was undoubtedly aggravated by the catastrophe known as [Kansas Governor] Sam Brownback and [Secretary of State] Kris Kobach. [Deceased]  was born [whenever to whoever]... [Deceased] started working as a...teacher, [and became a spouse and parent]. .... Midway through life, [Deceased] evolved into a fierce advocate for women's rights.... On a whim, [Deceased] applied with Planned Parenthood and the rest is history.

[Deceased] was the face of abortion rights...on the front line...endur[ing] the anti's threats and protests on [the] lawn. [Deceased] lobbied in Topeka, led rallies, handled reporters, and worked the fair - anything to get the word out that women matter. [Ed.

Fight back with unprecedented donations to the fund."


Not that such a blatant political statement thinly disguised as an "obituary" would be "forcing one's beliefs onto others" or anything, huh? Could the hypocrisy of liberals be any more obvious?

George Orwell predicted it....

The headlines read “FBI recommends no charges against Hillary Clinton [for her use of a secret email server to conduct government business].”

In that same announcement, FBI Directory James Comey acknowledged that:
·        She was “extremely careless” in her use of that secret email server while serving as United States Secretary of State.
·        “More than 100 email chains Mrs. Clinton was part of contained information that was classified at the time she sent or received it, and thousands of other messages have since been ‘up-classified.’ 
·        “Her lawyers didn’t even read every message when deciding which ones they deemed work-related.
·        “He and his investigators found no evidence Mrs. Clinton intentionally tried to mishandle classified information, and he said they could find no other situations where a successful case had been made against someone in a similar situation.”

Are they serious? Sadly, yeah; they are. This is just more of the decay and corruption that has infested the United States government of the past 24 years – since her “husband” first occupied the Oval Orifice.

“[Comey] said those who behave like Mrs. Clinton often face administrative sanctions from their employers, or lose security privileges. But since she’s ”out of office now, neither of those alternatives is available in her case.” Sooooooo, do ya think that her conduct should render her ineligible to serve as….oh, I don’t know; President of the United States? An office she is currently the Democrat Party’s candidate for ? A position in which, if she wins, she most definitely WILL have to have a security clearance for!

As for not finding any evidence that Hillary Clinton intentionally mishandled classified documents, whatever happened to “Ignorance of the Law Is No Excuse?” And you’re telling me that in the Uniform Code of Military Justice or U.S. Federal Law, there are “no other situations” where a serviceperson was not dishonorably discharged and/or sent to Leavenworth for sloppy handling of classified materials?

In his announcement this morning, Director Comey said, “Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. …. To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who engaged in this activity would face no consequences.” Really, then why doesn’t Hillary Clinton have to face consequences for her actions then? This is fair and equal justice for all?

Oh, but I forgot; we’re talking about the Clintons and where the Clintons – both Bill and Hill – are concerned, George Orwell said it best in his book Animal Farm; “ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL,
BUT SOME ANIMALS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.”

“Up the rebels and down the British!” Independence Day blog, July 4, 2016

In the 1972 movie, “1776,” and the musical that was its inspiration, there is an dispute in the Continental Congress about referring to Britain’s King George III as a “tyrant.”

Delaware’s John Dickinson moved that any reference of George III as a "tyrant" removed from the Declaration.

Thomas Jefferson: Just a moment, Mr. Thomson. I do not consent. The king is a tyrant whether we say so or not. We might as well say so.
Charles Thomson: But I already scratched it out.
Thomas Jefferson: Then scratch it back in!
John Hancock: Put it back, Mr. Thomson. The King will remain a tyrant.

Today we celebrate the American Revolution's declaring the American Colonies’ independence from Great Britain. Our forefathers rejected the following imposed on them by Britain:

  • The Stamp Act which imposed on the American Colonists “Taxation without representation.”
  • The Coercive Acts, among other things, made British officials immune to criminal prosecution in America.
  •  The Tea Act in 1773, a bill designed to save the faltering East India Company by greatly lowering its tea tax and granting it a monopoly on the American tea trade. 


Well, let’s see where we stand now on these items 240 years downstream of declaring independence:
  •       America is taxed to hell and back with what has deteriorated into all but a sham of representation of the common man in Congress it has gotten so corrupt and self-serving.
  •       It seems that certain American officials are now immune to criminal prosecution in America –

o   Barry Obama was accused by Senator Ted Cruz, the Ranking Member of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on The Constitution, Civil Rights and Human Rights, of 76 illegal acts in his presidency to date.
o   Bill & Hillary Clinton (abuses of power – using the IRS and FBI as weapons against political opponents, lying under oath – hell; lying like rugs about anything & everything, attempts to loot taxpayer-funded items from the White House, Travelgate, Chinagate, Filegate and Pardongate and who could forget Hillary’s 9,987% profit in just nine months on cattle futures because of a highly placed connection at Tyson Foods, which – “coincidentally” was the largest employer in Arkansas and a BIG Clinton donor.  To say nothing of her alleged illegalities regarding accepting inappropriate contributions from foreign nations and her sloppy email security when she was Secretary of State.)
o   And let’s not forget Al Sharpton’s and former Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner’s  unresolved tax troubles.

Anyone want to place any bets that any one of these individuals will prosecuted on any of these things? Anyone want to place any bets that if any one of us commoners were to do any one of these things we’d get the same treatment in the law that these individuals have received?
And while we’re not being forced to quarter troops in our own homes (3rd Amendment of Bill of Rights) or rescinded the right of trial by jury, we certainly have seen:
  • assaults on religious freedom and free speech (1st Amendment of Bill of Rights),
  • assaults on the citizenry’s right to keep and bear arms (2nd Amendment, which states literally states “shall not be infringed.” Apparently somebody forgot to tell the Democrat Party about this).
  • Every man, woman and child traveling as a paying passenger on an airliner these days continue to have their rights under the 4th Amendment of the Bill of Rights constantly pummeled by being forced to take off their shoes and subject themselves to being x-rayed and illegally molested by TSA officials at the airport
  • The citizenry is not to be deprived … liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. Yet we’ve seen all kinds of violations of due process – the latest being the liberals’ latest idea to deny anyone who finds themselves on the “no fly” list with the ability to “keep and bear arms.” And should that be enacted, just what protection does one have from being declared a “security risk” merely for disagreeing with the liberal agenda? And Lord knows the EPA and “imminent domain” have done more than their share of denying property without truly “just” compensation. (5th Amendment)
  • And, just exactly how much did Nakoula Basseley Nakoula “enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense” as provided by the 6th Amendment of the Bill of Rights for his alleged crime of producing a supposedly anti-Islam video that Hillary Clinton et al tried to blame for her tragic and fatal fiasco in Benghazi, Libya in 2012?
  • And how does the infatuation with applying Sharia Law in US Courts – like the city council of Dearborn, Michigan which voted 4-3 to become the first US city to officially implement all aspects of Sharia Law – square with the 7th Amendment of the Bill of Rights which states that civil trials in any court of the United States, shall be decided according to the rules of the common law? Furthermore, how does it square with Bill’s 8th Amendment which prohibits cruel and unusual punishments – you know, like stoning, beheading, hands cut off and the like? Answer: It doesn’t.
  • And, let’s take a look at how the Federal courts – the Courts of Appeals and the Supreme Court being the most glaring examples – abuse the living hell out of the 10th Amendment to the Bill of Rights which states “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” Has the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court declarations that properly state legislated and/or voted on laws against illegal immigration, healthcare and gay marriage (just to mention three examples) been properly reserved to the States or the people therein? Answer: Not no, but hell no. If a state passes a law the liberal tyrants don’t agree with, the federal courts just rule it unconstitutional.

In light of such abuses to the Bill of Rights, it’s sadly obvious that we’re living in the midst of a tyranny just as devious and oppressive as that of King George III just by different means.

So what do you think? Personally, I can’t help but think General William Tecumseh Sherman said it best when he said, “You politicians have gotten us in a hell of a fix….”***
