Balance Sheet


I have a suggestion for everyone before you vote for president this coming November. Take two pieces of paper labeling one Trump and the other Biden ... and draw a vertical line down the middle of each ... indicating pluses on the left and minuses on the right.

Next list all the good things for each candidate on the left of this balance sheet and, of course, the negatives on the right. Be honest. If you have no pluses for Trump or minuses for Biden ... you are clearly a partisan idiot ... or work for MSNBC.

And now, if you have some extra time, weigh and then rank the pluses and minuses for each candidate ... using the same metric for all four columns. Use your logic ... not your emotions.

Once you have conscientiously done this exercise ... look it over carefully ...  then you can go vote.

President Trump is once again vilified for doing the right thing ... sending DHS agents to Portland to protect federal buildings ... which is not needed? Well, what were these peaceful protesters doing yesterday outside the federal courthouse there ... toasting marshmallows? See: MSM Video.

Was a model with a classy chassis.

There has been a kinetic aspect added to the Trump-Iranian standoff ... a continuing series of explosions and/or bombings at Iran strategic facilities. Is it Israel? Is it Saudi Arabia? Or is it the United States? 

Well a podcast offered through the Powerline blog ... featuring the former head of Israel’s military intelligence ... does not answer these questions directly ... but it does offer broad hints. Take a listen by activating the podcast within this link: Powerline Reference ... it’s fascinating!

Short Note


I recently wrote about how new national coronavirus deaths,  not new cases was the metric to follow how we were progressing against this virus ... see: Scaredy Cats. Now, new deaths are starting to creep up ... primarily because of new cases spikes in Florida, California and Texas are causing new deaths to follow. (Not so much in Arizona.) I think the issue in the Southwest is all driven by what is happening in border leakage from Mexico. But the Florida numbers well might be the result of some number funny business.

Bottom line: Overall new deaths are still the metric to use ... but until new cases in California and Texas level out and decline I have gotten less optimistic and, as President Trump has said, things are likely to get worse before they get better.

Obvious Truth



A police force that is forbidden from exercising soft authority, even hard authority when required to keep the peace, is not a police force ... it’s a Cub Scout troop. And those who automatically equate the exercise of authority with Fascism are not just gullible ... they are criminally naive.
