Compromise

So Hillary says that during her watch as Sec. of State, we didn't lose a single person in Libya.

Say What?

If I were one of the parents of the Benghazi victims to whom H lied straight in their face about "that video"..... I can't imagine the level of disgust and loathing that I would feeling about now.

It is known as "The Big Lie".... perfected in the Germany of the 1930's.....  and Hillary Clinton is a prime devotee of its use and effect.

Peeps.... I know that Trump is hard to swallow, but he is truly the lesser of two evils...  and in this case, way freaking lesser.

You know where you stand with Trump.  You may not like it.... but you know where you stand.   With Clinton... you stand in a murky swamp where she will do or say whatever she feels she can get over on you.

I pray that she does not get over with the American People.   And frankly, I'm astounded that she influences even one of us to induce us to vote to give over the Executive reins of the country to her massive lack of dignity and morality.

Politics is the art of compromise.  But can you compromise enough to allow a Liar to be your President?   Your call.

Paranoia Runs Deep... Into Your Life It Might Creep...

Peeps...
As the saying goes, "You're not paranoid if they're really out to get you."

Raise your hand if in your heart of hearts you feel that criticizing Obama could get some jaded NSA Geek listening in to your phone conversations and monitoring your emails.

Raise you hand if you also have a nagging suspicion that your tax returns may well be audited in the short term.

Or Raise your hand if in your heart of hearts you feel that spouting your feelings about Hillary could leave you as one of those suicide victims with two bullets in the back of the head.

Course this is paranoia running deep.  This stuff could never happen.... Right?

This attack by the left on Donald Trump..... calling him a Nazi, calling him Racist, stifling his First Amendment rights and sabotaging his campaign rallies......This attack is the kind of big Government tactics that Fascist regimes have engendered historically.

The Left has had a good ride with Obama, but couldn't cut the deal.  They are showing their true colors in their reaction to Trump.

Fire and Rain

So Iran just fired off some missles... reputedly with a "Death to Israel" slogan painted on them.

Do you think this is a practice run for a nuclear attack?????

Thank you John Kerry!   Maybe it's time for you and Sweet Baby James Taylor to lumber over to Tehran for another verse of  "You've Got a Friend".   How about a new release for the occasion ...... something like "Fire and (Radioactive) Rain"?????

History has a nice spot reserved for Jawn and BO.... right next to the Neville Chamberlain section.

So sick of these Phoney, Incompetent Libs in power.   Please God... get H indicted and jailed before her sheep herd can make it to the polls this November.

Donald and Mitt

Donald Trump is running for President.

He is a blunt talking successful businessman whose statements sound like the loudest, most opinionated person sitting at the bar.

When you are hanging at the bar, that person sounds cool even if you are not taking him seriously, but what if he actually could be elected President?

He inspires a lot of people.... and scares the hell out of a lot of others.

Mitt Romney today is set to give a national speech denouncing him as a phoney and a fraud.

STFU Mitt.  Your train has left the station.  You had a chance to shine and gave us BO instead.  You may not agree with Trump, but to call him a phoney is lacking.

Trump says he is going to build a wall, and that Mexico is going to pay for it,  Then he expressly says that the wall will cost $6Billion and that Mexico can foot the bill to protect their trade deficit.  That is specificity.  If you disagree, fine, but you can't say that Trump only makes empty assertions.

For Romney to call him names, calls out Mitt as envious that Trump has found a rally point for Republicans that his establishment could not locate.

I wish that there was a better candidate than Trump.  But I will vote for him in a heartbeat over Clinton.

Super Tuesday

Hillary Clinton squeaked by Bernie Sanders in Massachusetts getting 50% of the Liberal Democratic vote here, compared to Bernie's 49%

That is a powerful story which the press has thus far ignored.  The most Liberal state in the union.... "The People's Republic of Taxachusetts"..... the only state to vote for George McGovern.... comes within 1% of the vote from saying no to the ultra establishment Democrat... the disgusting, immoral Liar H.

There is a part of me that is proud of my home state.

I had feared that the Clinton sheep herd here.... the same nice folks that made a Fake Indian, Liz Warren, their United States Senator.... would sweep H to a huge plurality of victory.

But not so.  A 74 year old Socialist came within a hair of handing a loss to the anointed Clinton in this bastion state of Liberal Moonbattery.

My other Super Tuesday MOAM Observation occurred wheI was standing to vote in a long precinct line in Marblehead. Everyone took a red Democratic ballot. One guy asked the poll checker if she wanted his ID. When she said "No", he said, "How do you know that I am who I say I am?" She said, "I don't."

The opportunity for voter fraud is enormous, and I was impressed that the Dem in front of me posed the question.

Trump trounced the Republican field here. I don't know anyone who outwardly says he or she supports Trump here in Massachusetts. Secret ballots are essential to a true democratic process.

Senator Marco Rubbio, who has yet to win a state election, has been running ads that Trump is a "Con Man", and that no Con Man will ever win the Presidency.

Spoiler Alert to Marco.  Check out the current POTUS.  You are wrong.  Barry Soetoro, an Indonesian Exchange Student, happens to be sitting in the Oval Office in a direct contradiction to your assertions about Trump.... who may be unsavory to you, but the successful Billionaire is far from being a Con.

Marco should bail.

Gun Crisis at UMASS

Peeps....
These reports of a man with  gun at UMASS seem overstated.
Did someone flash a handgun?  Was He/She licensed to carry?  The press is acting like having a gun is a crime.

Reminds me of my own crisis when I was a Freshman at UMASS Amherst, which never hit the public airwaves fortunately.  I posted this back in 2010.

Grenade Pin

Clammers found cases with 126 grenades in New Bedford.  Some were live.   They were safely detonated and no one was hurt.
~
That reminds me of an old college incident, in James House at UMASS.  The Vietnam War was in play, and a crazy vet was visiting his friend in the dorm room next door.
~
In those days, a lot of guys would come back from the war, fresh from firefights and other horrific shit that only happened a week or so ago.  One day, you are on patrol, firing off your M1 in DaNang at VietCong hell bent on killing you, and the next week you are hanging out on campus at Amherst, MA.  I always felt bad for these guys who didn't have a college deferment, and was enrolled in Army ROTC preparing to go myself.
~
This guy was really jacked in a lot of ways, and we all were leary of him.  It was my freshman year and he used to drill Aaron Boykin and myself when we had our uniforms on to go to ROTC class.    But that's another story.
~
One day, he came into my room with a grenade in his hand, stuffed it into the hand of my roommate, Jeff Middleton, pulled the pin, and told him to hold the lever, or we would all die.  Then he left the room.  Jeff and I stood there with a WTF look on our faces.
~
After about thirty seconds of standing there stunned, I said to Jeff that we should carefully take the grenade outside, walk it across the athletic fields, and heave it into the woods.  Jeff stood there ackwardly holding the thing with his hand clasped on the detonation lever.  We were too dazed to be afraid.
~
Before we got the plan into action,  the crazy vet came back, put the pin back into the grenade, quietly took it with him. and left without a word.    We never mentioned it again.... like it never happened.
~
I often wonder whether that grenade was live, and what would have happened if it blew up on the edge of the intramural field.  My guess is that if it was a dud, the vet wouldn't have come back so soon to take it back.  He would have let us sweat a lot longer.
~
It's one of the many things in my life that could have gone drastically wrong...... but didn't.... so I'm sitting here blogging today.  There is enough stuff that could have gone wrong and did.... but I'm here anyway.

Nope to the Pope

So Pope Francis says that Donald Trump is not a Christian if he wants to build a Wall on the Mexican Border.

A stupid move Pope.   And I'm not defending Trump.

Are Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton Christians while they support the abortions of Planned Parenthood????

Pope, you have poured oil on a slippery slope. If you are going to call out one, you have to call out the other.

Now it seems that you are injecting Christian doctrine into American politics while a Socialist is running for President.   And you are known to have Socialist leanings.

So the people that you like are Christians and the people that you don't are not?

There are a lot of flaws in my Catholic faith, and you've just added another.

Survival

Peeps....
Lately getting old has been occupying center stage in my thoughts.

My mother turns 90 next month, my father-in-law is 92, and my mother-in-law is 88 and in the hospital after having surgery for a brain aneurysm.

When I was growing up, I thought that people in their sixties were old.  All four of my grandparents died young... I only briefly knew my Maternal Grandfather.

But since then, things really have seemed to change.


Now with my parents in their nineties, and some of my best friends in their seventies, I'm starting to think that our kids and grandkids will see centenarians as a matter of course.  Not sure of the reasons for the uptick in longevity.  Probably a mixture of the availability of food and shelter as well as medical technology.

Most likely, my Mother-in-law would had died without her recent brain surgery, and a number of other family members and friends have recently had medical procedures without which their lifespan could have been threatened.

So getting old is not the challenge.  Surviving is no longer the issue.  The emerging concern is quality of life.  What will you do with that survival?

Time's Up for H

The Democrat Spin-Doctors are now saying that a win for H in New Hampshire would be to lose to Bernie Sanders within ten percentage points.

That is quite a stretch of logic.... since she led Bernie Sanders by over 40 points in the early going.

Looks like the original strategy... to keep Hillary out of the public eye and away from the press as long as possible.... was probably well founded.  Too bad she had to eventually have some light shed upon her.   But who would have thought that a Vermont Hippy in his seventies would be the first to take her down???

How do you think all of the Dems who, were scared off by her initial "coronation" feel now?  They didn't have the balls to take on the Clinton Syndicate, and let a Crazy Commie fill a widening chasm.

You have to believe that Jawn Kerry is in a loathesome quandary.  He could have had it all if he had the fortitude to break ranks and fulfill his destiny.   These Lefty Loonies have treated the Clinton's like Moonbat Royalty with only one problem.... young voters don't recognize the narrated legacy, and don't trust the despicable H.  All they needed was a guy who knew the words to "KumBaya" and promised free tuition, and H was history.

Your MOAM is feeling a bit elated.  It's time for the Clinton's to retire to their New York estate and stage fundraisers to keep H out of a Federal Penitentiary.

I'm thinking that she loses by at least twenty points tonight in New Hampshire.... which proves the old adage... "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time... but not all of the people all of the time."

Time's up for H.
