Musings on the
Week
December 15, 2018
Immigration – The bosom of America is open to receive not only the opulent and respectable stranger, but the oppressed and persecuted of all nations and religions; whom we shall welcome to a participation of all our rights and privileges, if by decency and propriety of conduct they appear to merit the enjoyment.” George Washington.
Politics – Every time I hear Democrats assert how Republicans think, they either
read their minds (unlikely) or are projecting their own
mental shortcomings on their opponents.
Politics – A lie is only a lie if it comes from the lips of a conservative; but
a “misstatement” if it comes from a liberal, with immunity agreements granted
only to Democrats under investigation, but not conservatives who are blackmailed
into career-ending, bankruptcy.
Politics – As much as
Democrats want it,
pursuing business deals with Russia, seeking opposition research and paying “hush money”
are not crimes nor grounds for impeachment!
Politics – The American people ignore the Democrats’ “impeach screech”
as deranged ranting based on wishful political thinking
with no factual basis or underlying crime.
Politics – If Democrats were
surprised by the
negative impact of their Kavanaugh smear, they “ain’t seen nothin’” if they
decide to impeach Trump based only on politics.
Media – President Trump should drive the Democrats crazy by nominating Mike Flynn as a new National Security Advisor
considering he has already been vetted and experienced!
Immigration – “We must say no to illegal immigration so we can continue to say yes to legal immigration.” William J. Clinton.
Census – The question is not
when will white people become a minority,
but rather when will diversity be achieved and we
can finally stop tracking peoples’ heritage and beliefs?
Subsidies – Our government has a horrible
track record picking winners and losers, so we should stop
subsidizing agriculture commodities and energy producers.
Immigration – The
Immigration Act of 1882 barred from entry into the United States "any person unable to
take care of himself or herself without becoming a
public charge."
Immigration – A Gallup world poll found
that the U.S. is the top destination for immigrants with nearly 160 million people around the world wanting to emigrate to the United States.
Environment – The IPCC
conference made more apocryphal predictions, based on pseudo-science and
inaccurate computer models requiring redistribution of
wealth to poor countries and promising to deliver miniscule climate change
since solutions do not address problems.
Education - In the most recent Programme for International Student Assessment, the United States ranked an unremarkable 38th out
of 71 countries in math and 24th in science.
Family – Children
are victims in the welfare state of fatherless households: 63% of youth
suicides; 90% of all homeless and runaway children; 85% of all children who
show behavior disorders; 71% of all high school dropouts; and 70% of juveniles
in criminal detention.
Immigration – “It’s a national embarrassment that an illegal immigrant can walk across the border and receive free health care and one of our veterans that has served our country is put on a waiting list and gets no care.” Donald J. Trump.
GWOT
– Christianity is the single most persecuted religious group on the
planet and that
in 80% of these instances of persecution, it is Muslims who are the
persecutors.
Europe
– Protests have spread from France across the rest of Europe as populism rejects the ruling elite cramming climate change and globalism
down peoples’ throats to drive up energy
prices and import immigrants who want to fundamentally change their countries.
Afghanistan
– Foreign policy failed because the need for military action (“Powell Doctrine”) has disappeared: no clear attainable
objective was ever defined; no plausible exit strategy was defined; both
American and international support has been allowed to erode.
