Children Crusades


About nine hundred years ago the elders of Europe sent twenty thousand or so of their children off on a silly, futile and fatal crusade to save Jerusalem from the infidels. This week hundreds of thousands of parents around the world encouraged their equally naive children to rail against that daemon, global warming ... caused by carbon dioxide ... otherwise essential to all life. History surely has a way of repeating its more bazaar moments.

Reality Show

The Apprentice

Donald J. Trump is  mocked as being nothing more than a washed-up  reality show host who stumbled into the American presidency. There is a certain juicy irony to this insult ... in particular because Trump has finally brought reality to our governance ... perhaps because of the clear eyes acquired on his reality shows. He has:

- recognized the reality of Jerusalem being the capital of Israel and moved out embassy there.

- acknowledged that many of our previous trade deals are bleeding this country dry ... and need to be renovated or scrapped.

- realized  that Washington, DC is infested with self-serving reptiles ... a swamp that badly needs draining

- saw that immigration into the United States is regulated by many cockamamie laws.... assuming that they are even obeyed. The whole process needs to be revamped and our borders secured.

- understood that our continually appeasinfg of North Korea and Iran has produced no good results. Our approach needs to be  hardened and confrontational if we have any hope of averting a nuclear holocaust.

- deciphered that the only thing that had been driving our economy has been the Federal Reserve's easy money  policy ... and that tax cuts, regulation reform and infrastructure spending are required to get our economy and employment back on track.

-  realized that the global warming  hysteria was a gigantic hoax and an covert attempt at wealth redistribution.

- sensed that our mi litany had been hollowed out and needed to be rebuilt.

If Trump's reality show experience has helped open his eyes to these and other realities our country was suffering under, then, rather than a mocking slur, this has been a positive... and provided him the keys to the White House.
