Safety in Numbers

Weinstein? Who is Harvey Weinstein? Since we were treated to our first sexual perv, there has been such a flood of like-minded miscreants, that we have almost forget who opened the spillway. Now, the lawyer for perv Rep. John Conyers is threatening to reveal the dozens if not hundreds of Congresspersons (there has to be at least one female) who have engaged in inappropriate horizontal cha-chas on Capitol Hill.

This sounds like a safety in numbers strategy on this lawyer's part and, I strongly suspect, it just might work. So, if the 254 lechers are revealed whose payoffs cost us taxpayers around $16 million ... plus those 50 on the current Congressional "creep list" are unmasked, the print media should have enough fodder to feed a cattle drive. And John Conyers (and Al Franken) can lose themselves in this crowd.

And what might the political persuasions of these over 300 pervs be? My money is on at least 75% Democrats. If not, I'll down a hefty dose of Fletcher's Castoria ...

Afterward: I think I just figured out why they call themselves "congress" ...

Rhetoric

Here are the concluding lines of  last night's address to Congress by President Trump. Surprisingly, I thought for a short while he was  transformed into a classic rhetorician (I think Melania was crying) :

When we have all of this, we will have made America greater than ever before. For all Americans.

This is our vision. This is our mission.

But we can only get there together.

We are one people, with one destiny.

We all bleed the same blood.

We all salute the same flag.

And we are all made by the same God.

And when we fulfill this vision; when we celebrate our 250 years of glorious freedom, we will look back on tonight as when this new chapter of American Greatness began.

The time for small thinking is over. The time for trivial fights is behind us.

We just need the courage to share the dreams that fill our hearts.

The bravery to express the hopes that stir our souls.

And the confidence to turn those hopes and dreams to action.

From now on, America will be empowered by our aspirations, not burdened by our fears — inspired by the future, not bound by the failures of the past — and guided by our vision, not blinded by our doubts.

I am asking all citizens to embrace this Renewal of the American Spirit. I am asking all members of Congress to join me in dreaming big, and bold and daring things for our country. And I am asking everyone watching tonight to seize this moment and — believe in yourselves.

Believe in your future.

And believe, once more, in America.

Thank you, God bless you, and God bless these United States.

But Nancy Pelosi and Al Franken did not seem to be moved ...

The Resistance

We are living in interesting times wherein there is a strident and seemingly widespread resistance to our current Trump administration ... unfortunately even some of it from within the administration itself ... as witnessed by the continued embarrassing security leaks. The energy in this resistance over-states its actual support as much of Middle America seems to understand the time-worn dynamic of how those on the left ... much of the print media, many entertainers, some judges, SNL, paid agitators, prog politicians, cable TV talking heads, even some foreign leaders ... are over-reacting to a few greenhorn missteps by the Trump posse.

Many on the left ... Meryl Streep, Michael Moore, Al Franken, Rosie O'Donnell, Chuck Schumer, Lena Dunham, Mark Cuban, Elizabeth Warren, etc. ... are all elbowing each other out of the headlines ... fishing to be first in the public's eye with even more outrageous Trump and Company smears.

And John Hinderaker, like always, has it pretty much right in his Powerline Blog diagnosis of the double teaming that SNL and the AP perform almost every weekend since Trump was inaugurated. Their purpose has clearly expanded well beyond humor to delegitimizing our current administration ... see: Powerline Blog. This is verification of the extent and vigor of the resistance I am noting above. Somehow, I think that these naysayers will eventually tire of concocting their innuendo and fake news and Trump will prevail ... just like he did in the general election. He will "punch through" this picket line of pikers.

Down We Go

Nixon had the good sense not to contest the 1960 election when it was pretty clear that Texas and Illinois  had been stolen for J.F.K. by L.B.J. and Mayor Daley (in Chicago).  He thought that it would besmirch the election process and this would create future problems.  Al Gore was not so patriotic when, in 2000, he lost in Florida and fought tooth and nail to overturn the results there.  Whether or not you believe that the Supreme Court gave this election to Bush 43, it seems clear that there were sufficient shenanigans on the part of Democrats to suggest that they had tried mightily to subvert the election process.  (It is suspected by many that punch-card ballots were gang-punched for Gore by Democrat inside operatives ... and this is how the hanging chads occurred at the bottom of each stack of punch cards.  Funny how none of the Bush 43 ballots had these same hanging chads?)

I think the resentment rising out of this Supreme Court decision has created a mindset among many Democrats that it is OK to take any questionable measure to insure that your candidate wins.  Witness how it has been recently revealed that one of the major duties of the "community organizers,"  ACORN, was election malfeasance.  I also suggest that Harry Reid's last victory in Nevada and Al Franken's drawn-out dog fight win in Minnesota might well be specific examples of voter fraud.  Now, we see that our Attorney General, Eric Holder, appears to be steering the ship of state into this maelstrom to try to insure a victory for The Barry next year.  See the details of his questionable actions here and here.

To me, it is very disturbing that there are people (mostly Liberals) who believe that a voter does not have to prove his/her identity in order to cast a ballot ... while they are required to do so for something as simple as buying a six-pack of beer.  And the accelerating trend toward motor-voter registrations and massive absentee ballot casting, again IMHO, may cause the election process in this country to become as corrupt as it was in Iraq under Saddam Hussein and how it currently seems to be in Russia.  I think I can hear a number of our august founding fathers gyrating in their sepulchers.
