Stimulus Check


Let us assume that sometime soon I get Uncle Sam’s economy stimulus check for $1,200 ... which I didn’t ask for and don’t particularly need. What should I do with it?  Here are some possibilities:

- Buy $100 gift cards at 12 local restaurants to help them stay alive?

- Donate it to the local food bank?

- Put it in my grandkids’ college funds?

- Buy hydrovychloroquine tablets for everyone in the neighborhood?

- Donate it to the Trump re-election campaign?

- Buy 12 round-trip Delta airline tickets to Hawaii?

- Donate to a local pol’s “campaign” in exchange for a cushy no-show state job?

- Fund a gun-rights billboard on the Mass pike?

- Buy a lifetime supply of toilet paper?

- Give it back to the government?

My wife won’t tell me how she is going to spend her check ... lots of Netflix movies for our grandkids to keep them occupied during this long shutdown?

True Grit

From the movie “True Grit”

Republicans’ favorite Democrat, Tulsi Gabbard, a Iraqi veteran, a Representative from Hawaii and of Samoan heritage, recently appeared again on Tie View to face down these harpies. I couldn’t find this video on YouTube so I’ll send you to were I found it ... Diogenes’ Middle Finger.

Tulsi surely comes off courageous here. Too bad her politics are so far left. She has a full case of Moxie and would make a good Republican.

Protected Slander


Senators are protected in session from accusations of slander. Big mistake! Spittle-flecked Hawaiian Senator Mazie Hirono shows above why this protection is a travesty. The venue is Wednesday’s Judiciary Committee hearings of Attorney General William Barr on the Mueller Report. See Crazy Mazie make a complete horse’s ass out of herself with impunity.

Green Dreams


John Hinderaker of the Powerline blog has punctured the ballon of the greenies who want wind and solar energy to replace fossil fuel electricity production ... see: Green Energy Pipe Dreams. Read and be informed.

Both California and Hawaii have committed their states to this chimera which any rational analysis will show cannot occur ... not even close. This red herring will cost both these states tremendous financial pain and social disruption. To summarize, this is because these technologies cannot supply power on a windless night ... and battery technology cannot fill in the void.

However, there is one way for any state to go totally green ... nuclear power plants. But clearly this is heretical to the Green religion but so it ain't gonna happen.
