American Grocery Stores and the USSR

I borrowed this piece from Joe For America.

As documented in a biography about Boris Yeltsin that was written by Leon Aron in 2000, the difference between capitalism and communism/socialism became painfully clear. Here's some limited details of a 1989 stop at a Randall's Grocery store in Houston, Texas by the Communist Party of the Soviet Union member, Boris Yeltsin that changed the USSR for good.

If Boris Yeltsin, a one time devout communist could recognized the difference between socialism, communism and capitalism from one visit to a typical grocery store in the United States then why can't the rest of us?!

Our card carrying, chest thumping, die in the wool American communists and socialists have absolutely no idea what they're asking for, what they're demanding. They want their cake and they want to eat it too. You can't have both. As the article linked to above suggests, Boris Yeltsin saw the difference up front and personal and returned to his Soviet Union to effect changes that would positively affect everyone. Or so he hoped.

And they did. That one visit to that one Texas store in 1989 changed the world forever.

Is China Ready To Lead?!

With the European Union in disarray, Brazil falling off of their short lived global plate re: production and economy, India being (once again... or should I say "still") pre-occupied regarding their seemingly never ending quarrel with Pakistan it appears China's got a somewhat free pass to take a shot at increasing their global leadership if they want it.

At least that's my take from reading the article I linked to above.

China's poised to take on a more robust global leadership role in manufacturing, economy and trade and quite frankly we're seemingly encouraging it to happen. While we're so busy quarreling within about what tweet is appropriate or not, whether the NFL should kneel during our national anthem, whose lives matter more than others, our open borders, Clinton's travesties, etc., the liberal "hate America" agenda, global conquest and other things of the sort we're letting our what's left of our global influence fall to the wayside.

And China's poised to take advantage of our internal quarreling. Why wouldn't they? We would... hell, we have.

I'm thinking I'm witnessing a crumbling of our values, of our global influence. Every "empire", every dog eventually has its day and then it's all downhill from there.

Are we there yet? Because we're certainly not poised to lead or at least it doesn't appear to ME that we are poised to lead. Nah, from what I'm seeing we've become a distraction to many, a reduced influence globally and a liability to some. Our infighting is fraying our unity and the whole world's watching, noticing.

That given, why WOULDN'T other nations start posturing and start testing the global markets, the competition at least? It makes sense to me... I don't like it but it makes sense.

Life goes on.

Okay POTUS Trump... you're going too far.

At least in my opinion.

I woke up and read where you, POTUS Donald J. Trump are trying to dictate to the NFL Commissioner how to run his business. Suggestions and sharing of ideas is one thing but demanding, dictating action is a simple way to shut down all communications, regardless of what it's about, at least.

Rush Limbaugh, a true supporter of yours has this one right! And like Rush Limbaugh I'm concerned about your edicts to that NFL Commission Goodell on this NFL stuff too.

POTUS Trump, I don't like what the pampered pups at the NFL are doing either but then again, I don't have to, neither do you. I shut them off and shut them out. Not my problem anymore. But you're taking the issue over the top and I have to say I can't agree with you dictating what someone, anyone should do with or to their business.

If it's your business then by all means lay the law down and make it happen... your way or the highway but the NFL isn't yours. It isn't ours... it belongs to... hell, I don't even know or care who it belongs to but they have every right to run it into the ground if they want to. And quite frankly I hope they do. Much like I have every right to tune them and their prim a donnas out altogether.

But POTUS Trump, you're not a dictator. Don't go there. You won't win.

The Butcher Bitch of Benghazi's "What Happened"

Here's what happened. A great open letter to the Butcher Bitch of Benghazi, hillary clinton, one of the elite members of the "Clinton Cartel". This letter was found in the comment section of a Conservative website that was "hyping" clinton's tear soaked, vodka stained, finger pointing, "everyone else but me" confessional in really crappy book form.

Thanks to The Conservative Book Club for the affording us an opportunity to read the great comment offered by James Hennighan, a Brit who regularly visits our mighty fine United States of America!

No need to click on the link above unless you want to review the book info and see Mr. Hennighan's comment as it's posted. Either way, here's Mr. Hennighan's comment.

"What Happened……?

Really Hilary……..?

The fact that you have to ask this question reveals that you still don’t get it……..or are in denial.

Permit me to enlighten you.

You were an exceptionally poor candidate..

You ran an appalling campaign which was totally disconnected from ordinary people…..

You believed it was your right to the Office of President….

It was all your fault, pure and simple.

I am a British Citizen, living in England and I regular visit the USA. During the last few years, including the run up to the election I travelled extensively in the Mountain States, California and The Deep South.

In conversations with ordinary people it was obvious to me that radical change was going to be the order of the day in US politics. It was clear to me, at least, that Mr Trump would win.

People favouring Mr Trump readily expressed their views, whilst those on the left to whom I expressed my opinion looked at me as a stranger from the Old Colonial Country……….and could not understand how I came to the conclusion that I did.

But they had only to look deeper, (if they were prepared to), and they would have reached the same and only conclusion that I did.

Time and again, ordinary people were telling me something had to change……..and would change. Trying to make ends meet by having two or three jobs came across to me regularly. This is just one example of the dissatisfaction that was expressed to me.

I shall be in the USA during the month of October, travelling to New York, Pennsylvania and then down to Georgia, where I shall, once again, be talking to ordinary people. I fully expect that I shall encounter, and people will express, their trust and faith in the decision they made to elect President Trump.

This is democracy…..

Incidentally, whilst I have yet to read ‘What Happened’ it will be rather interesting to see how many times the word democracy crops up within its pages……..!"

I love it! Very well said! Thank you Mr. James Hennighan!

And The Leaks Continue!

Lately it seems like every time I power up the ol' laptop and start reading my morning news I read about MORE leaks from "someone, somewhere" about the White House, Donald Trump's business dealings, Trump's allegedly corrupt cabinet, our corrupt Congress, etc.

I'm beyond wondering if there's a "coup" of sorts going on out there. I'm convinced there is a coup. It's obviously a liberal coup. Both major parties and those who aren't "party affiliated" have been doing all they can to discredit our POTUS Donald J. Trump and effect a change that we, the people do not want.

The leaks, they're not subsiding. They're getting more blatant, bolder. It's time to start getting serious. Someone... a lot of someones needs to be reined in, held responsible and go to jail. We're becoming a banana republic to the world.

We voted for change, we're getting change and both sides of the aisle (including the back row seats) are insisting we were wrong for voting for change!

The thing about these leaks and this alleged corruption.... The longer it's allowed to be said, the longer the lies and deceit are allowed to continue the more acclimated to the false accusations the general public becomes and eventually the more accepting the public is regarding the accusations.

Is this all a build up to a coup d'état that's designed to overthrow our republic and assign a global "order" to us? If so, it's a treasonous act from where I'm standing. We, the people voted for this change in the direction our country was being taken. Now we, the people expect that change. We surely don't want to accept what the liberal, global elite expect us to accept.

But then again, I could be wrong.

Is the Democrat Party doomed?

Well, lately they've made blithering fools of themselves. They showed their hand early and now they can't win the game, or so it seems. The Democrats, the liberals have blatantly demonstrated they're NOT our ally in this journey we're taking as a united United States of America. They've demonstrated they'd be better served if we, the citizens of this mighty fine country would just shut up, get out of their way and let them do what they thinks best for them, the democrats and in particular the liberals... collectively, globally.

Given that, Here's Julian Assange's take on "Why The Democrat Party Is Doomed"

Like it or not I think Assange has some valid points here. I have to admit it's an interesting take, the Assange piece.

Assange makes it about us, he makes it about the voters who refused the liberal agenda. He makes his piece about the democrats. When I read it, "the dog chasing it's tail" seemed to come to mind. Those democrats, scratch that... all of the global politicos... they're looking for some recognition, some authority, some "progress" relating to their global agenda(s) and for now, the vote of the people keeps getting in their way.

How dare us! How dare us to vote our conscience, our choice!

Get over it libs, politicos. We had a rebellion at the ballot box.
