A thought for

All of you folks who like to toss around the word ‘Nazi”….
Especially those who use it for Trump and his supporters, or Right wingers in general.

I’d like to see even one example of Nazi-ism. Seriously. You toss it around, but you won’t back it up.

The Right leaning folks aren’t acting like Brownshirts, we aren’t eradicating you because you have a different race, nor religion, nor gender appeal, nor sexual identity. For the most part, we follow the law….. We are not frying people or beating them because we don’t agree with your lifestyle…..We haven’t penned you up because you don’t meet the norms…..And you are still alive to use the word “Nazi”….Trust me, if those you care calling “Nazi” were, in fact Nazis, then you’d have a hard time complaining because you’d be dead or imprisoned awaiting death…..

Whereas the Left has nothing but hate for those who are different from them……They bash out windows everytime someone who is different than them or has different views tries to speak, they loot, they burn, they threaten violence and death. They don’t seem to follow the rule of law, instead depending on numbers to let them get away with their violence and disregard for others. There is no tolerance for those who are different than they are. They use a lot of terms that aren’t true, and make false statements (“against the Constitution!!!” when that thing isn’t) and generally lie…. and people hear those words and believe in an unthinking manner…..Much like the happenings about 1938 and 1939……

So, again, where is the validity of the comparison to Nazis? How can you legitimately compare the Right to the National Socialists of Germany? Do you even know what the word means? Do you know enough history to even know what you are saying?

Or are you just parroting the words your facebook acquaintances are using to feel like part of a group? Following in and wallowing in the GroupThink and the crowd?

I’m waiting to be convinced I am wrong….

ETA: Read THIS too…

Activist Judges

So Trumps “Muslim immigration Ban” (which isn’t a ban, and doesn’t target muslims, but hey, let’s not quibble over the truth) has been (temporarily) stayed by a judge in Seattle. On a Friday (of course).

The temporary ban will likely be overturned.

It is my belief, that in cases like this, if a judges order is overturned they should be  temporarily removed from the office of Judge pending removal as a judge permanently  after case review by the judges who overturned that decision. Give them a chance to explain their reasoning and justify their decision…

Judges can make such decision with no consequences. There should be consequences. They have HUGE power, and it should be used well, and sparingly and with good conscience. Too often, judges fail to do the latter.

If they had the possibility of being removed as a judge, they might well think twice before making such decisions.

How many

Feminists does it take to change a lightbulb?

They Never Will. They’d rather march and blame men…Because “Patriarchy”. The bulb will stay dark, but there will be calls for legislation and eventually a government commission that will result in no change in photon output…..

Go ahead, tell me where I am wrong…

Gah

How does one deal with a person who is so totally party loyal they that they simply cannot look at any issue outside of “Political Party” and “What I read on Facebook”. Not stupid, mind you, but really unthinking… Just a sheep following the herd. Parroting the party line because others do it.

Especially when it is a family member.

So far left they couldn’t see the center if it was lit with flares. And they can’t even understand that.

State of Jefferson on the horizon?

So California is making noises that they will defy the Federal government and make the entire state a Sanctuary for illegal (Mexican) invaders immigrants.

I say, Bring it. They need the US more than we need them. And, really, it is the southern part of the state (occupied by Leftists), not the northern, which wants this. The northern part wants to form their own state….They’d rather secede from California.

And if California goes up against the Feds, they will lose. They need the monies from Federal coffers to keep ’em alive. If they lose that, they lose about $100Billion in revenue. Add in revenue from the ports, (which would close if the Feds blockaded them or put an import tariff on all shipments from California). Other west coast port cities would thrive. The State needs the Fed money to keep the road network running. Without interstates (and the Fed monies to keep em in repair) the state is in Gridlock nearly immediately.

The southern part of the state can’t pay their bills now. If they are no longer a part of the US (CalExit) then they won’t have the rest of the states to prop up their deficits….The day it happens, they are bankrupt. The State doesn’t produce enough electricity to power itself., so if they choose to defy the Feds, that can be a lever too.

If they want to secede, let ’em. That is just more wall to build, and more jobs to do so. The rest of the US can do without their vegetables, but they can’t do without our cash. 

Not my “values at stake”

My values are just fine with Trump’s actions, so far at least….

Asshole.
Barry can’t stay quiet. Can’t stand not being the center of attention. Narcissist.

Or maybe he gets his news from CNN and a bunch of liberals on Facebook, like most of the folks who protest everything Trump does. Sure as hell isn’t fact based.

On Jan. 18, President Barack Obama told reporters in his final news conference that he would comment on his successor’s actions only at “certain moments where I think our core values may be at stake.”
He managed to stay quiet for less than two weeks.

And, of course, he forgets that HE named the 7 countries as hotbeds of terrorism and all….And HE banned musilims (or at least folks from some muslim majority countries….)  But that isn’t any of our business ’cause it all be in the past and all….
