CRUZ FALLS OFF THE EDGE

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER posted a picture of Lee Harvey Oswald passing out flyers in New Orleans in 1963.  According to the pulp publication, Ted Cruz' father, Rafael, is in the picture standing next to Oswald.  

Donald Trump brought the story up Monday night, and by yesterday morning Ted was literally foaming at the mouth.  He went into a lengthy diatribe about how much he admired his father and what a garbage mouth Trump is.  

The only problem I have with this story is that, as of post time Cruz has yet to deny that the NATIONAL ENQUIRER picture is of his father standing next to Lee Harvey Oswald.  

CRUZ: EVERYONE IS TO BLAME...EXCEPT ME

The whining from Ted has become almost obnoxious in the last few days.  He sounds a lot like Barack... wallowing in self-pity and pointing fingers all over the place.  

He's blamed Trump, he's blamed voters, he's blamed the media... he's blamed everybody except himself.  Yet, he's the one who pulled the dirty tricks against his opponents, who lied about their getting out of the race, who misspoke the truth about his past votes in the Senate, who started the flap about candidate's wives and then tried to denigrate Trump when Trump responded.  He says he's the only one who can beat Clinton, but he can't beat Trump and sometimes can't even beat Kasich?  

To hear Ted speak, one would almost surmise that he thinks we're all part of the same, vast, right-wing conspiracy that plagues the Clinton family.  I mean after all... it's the damned voters who keep voting for Trump...

Wah!

OWN GUNS? HOLD ON TO YOUR WALLET!

The latest and growing tactic of the lefties is to tax gun owners until they give up.  How about paying an annual tax of $50 per gun you own?  I mean... guns cause crime, murders, injuries and mayhem, don't they?  Those costs are passed on to society in general through the rising costs of law enforcement and regulatory oversight, so shouldn't gun owners pay an annual tax?  

Never mind that the gun crime problem is a social problem, just like violence in general.  Never mind that the government has not even begun to address those social ills that plague the nation.  The left and the government is not to blame... gun owners are.  

In Seattle, they already levy a $25 dollars per firearm tax on guns purchased, with a nickel tax on ammunition over .22 caliber, and a 2 cent tax on smaller calibers.  In the Northern Marianas Islands, to compensate for losing their handgun ban in court, their Governor imposed a $1,000 “excise” tax on the importation of firearms.  

These idiots intend to force the Constitutional right to bear arms in this country to a showdown and they don't seem to care that millions and millions of more guns are being purchased by Americans every month.  To them, if we are going to exercise our rights, we're going to have to pay for it.  

OBAMA RELEASES 20,000 CRIMINAL ILLEGALS

The Obama administration is under Congressional investigation for releasing almost 20,000 illegal aliens who committed crimes while in the United States; 200 of them were murders.  Over 64,000 crimes were committed by these illegals.  ICE Director Sarah Saldana say the release came at the order of the Obama administration.  Dozens of the released illegals later committed murders.  

History teaches us that when the leader of a country ceases to abide by the laws of that country, it's called tyranny.  In this country, it's also an impeachable offense.  

Constitutional law professors know that, don't they Mr. Obama? 

HOMELAND SECURITY BLAMED FOR BLEEDING MONEY

The Department of Homeland Security is now ten years old and is plagued with massive and unmonitored spending, failing programs and gross mismanagement.  For example, they have more vehicles than they have employees and a substantial number of these employees are desk-bound.  Officials from the Government Accountability Office say that programs continue to cost more, take longer to field, and fail to meet mission requirements. 

Oh, and by the way... Agencies involved are still not communicating with each other, a major problem leading up to the 9/11 attacks.  

NEW GOVERNMENT SHOWDOWN LOOMS

In insisting that there's nothing wrong with selling fetal tissue or body parts from aborted fetuses, the Obama administration has warned more than ten states which have reduced or eliminated funding to Planned Parenthood that they may be "out of compliance" with federal law.  

Judging by the past records of federal agencies when they feel they have been wronged, armed task forces with tanks and helicopters are now being formed and will be descending upon the errant state capitols soon... AK-47's in hand.  Stay tuned...

WHEN THE RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD

Cruz and Kasich are now officially united. 

For Trump and his supporters, this is where the rubber meets the road.  They need to get out and energize in order to get Trump's numbers consistently above 50% for the rest of the primary season. 

Otherwise, Cruz, Kasich and the RNC might just pull this maneuver off and the "establishment" will win.  This is truly a battle for the soul of the Republican Party... and America.  

  

MICHELLE'S TAIL IS IN A KNOT

She made a speech over the weekend at Jackson State University in Mississippi and complained about the dirty-rotten Americans who question Barack's eligibility to be president, who called him liar during a State of the Union Speech, and who say he doesn't believe in God or America.  

I don't recall that Michelle has ever said anything nice about our country.  I think the proper term is "bigot?" 

GOP: "DON'T BLAME US FOR SELECTION PROCESS"

Insisting that "this is the way we've always done it," the Republican National Committee and individual state GOPs are saying that the current systems of selecting delegates to the party's national convention are just fine.  In the wake of that stance, we learn that Pennsylvania's elected delegates will essentially have no obligation to vote for Trump, even if he wins the state in a landslide.  

In other words, Pennsylvania votes don't matter.  

So why have the big charade?  Why not just tell voters to go f*** themselves up front?  

 

BLAME ISRAEL

According to FOX NEWS, "Vice President Joe Biden said Monday night that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government was leading the country 'in the wrong direction' hours after a bus bombing in Jerusalem wounded at least 21 people. 'I firmly believe that the actions that Israel’s government has taken over the past several years — the steady and systematic expansion of settlements, the legalization of outposts, land seizures — they’re moving us and more importantly they’re moving Israel in the wrong direction,' Biden said."  

So, the bus bombing by terrorists was Israel's fault?   
 

KASICH GETS FLUSHED

No, this isn't about New York.  The situation is that he was asked about North Carolina's law protecting women and children from having men entering their restrooms; he admitted that he had not read the bill, but said that people should just "chill out" and get used to it. “Why do we have to write a law … can’t we figure out just how to get along? Everybody chill out, get over it.”

Religious leaders and broadcasters around the country came unglued.  

Evidently, Kasich doesn't understand that these new laws allowing people to go into any restroom they wish to use has just opened the door to perverts and all kinds of depravity. 

CRUZ: DON'T BLAME ME

The first major outrage was when Cruz told Iowa voters that Ben Carson was dropping out the the race on the eve of the caucus there, so Carson supporters should switch their votes to Cruz.  Then there was the Cruz Campaign news release that Rubio was afraid that he might lose in Florida, thereby ending his political career, so he was going to drop out.. the news release occurred on the eve of the Hawaii primaries.  Then, voters got flooded with "Voter Violation" notices, another Cruz dirty trick.  

As it turns out, Cruz's slimy hands are all over the Colorado debacle; every delegate there who voted to scrap their traditional primaries is a Cruz delegate.  Then there's the fabricated story that Trump is threatening delegates, another Cruz dirty trick.  When conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly endorsed Trump, all kinds of dirty emails started flying from the Cruz corner, causing chaos in The Eagle Forum.  Finally, Cruz operatives have been out coercing Trump delegates to drop their allegiance to Trump and vote for Cruz unless Trump scores the required 1,237 delegate votes going into the convention.  

But, you can't blame Cruz.  He can't be blamed for the things his campaign staffers do... can he? Remember now... he's a nice, clean living evangelical Christian.  

RNC: "IT'S THE STATE GOPS, NOT US"

Responding to outcries of cheating and broken ethics, especially with regard to Colorado and Wyoming, the RNC has declared that the state GOPs make their own rules, not the RNC. 

Over the weekend, there was another brouhaha at Georgia's 7th District where party workers supporting Cruz and Rubio tried to steal Trump's three delegates.  http://www.bizpacreview.com/2016/04/17/trump-delegates-walk-georgias-7th-district-gop-convention-take-american-flag-329891  As a result, the Trump delegates walked out, taking their American flag with them.  

While the RNC tries to claim innocence, it is obvious that these efforts to thwart Trump voters come from a centralized and organized force.  That's why, when I got the inevitable phone call from the RNC looking for donations, I told them to go "F" themselves.  

This is America, not Iran. 

KOSKINEN: "NOT OUR JOB TO CATCH ILLEGALS"

IRS Commissioner John Koskinen says he doesn't care if illegals steal your social security number in order to use it for getting a job.  He says it's not the duty of the IRS to catch illegals; it's their job to catch people who don't pay their taxes.  

So, if an illegal uses your social security number to report earnings and your tax return doesn't have the right numbers on it, guess who is going to jail.  

Frankly, it should be Koskinen.  

 

 

SOME PEOPLE CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH

GOD NO LONGER EXISTS?

The  Missing Man Table was established during the Vietnam era. It was a solemn reminder of those who were Prisoners of War or Missing in Action.  Such tables are typically displayed on military bases, in the halls of veterans organizations and VA clinics, and they are steeped in tradition. There are empty chairs for each of the five services, a red rose, an inverted glass, a yellow ribbon, salt sprinkled on a plate, a lemon slice, a candle... and a Bible.  “The Bible represents the strength gained through faith to sustain us and those lost from our country, founded as one nation under God,” reads the official ceremony script.  

Those Bibles are now being surreptitiously removed at the request of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. And we are allowing it to happen. 

YES, BLAME TRUMP

I've come out and said that I support Trump, but I have to honestly admit that I'm starting to waiver.  One of the things I've always asserted about Trump is that you can't get to the top of the financial heap without relying on some pretty savvy people around you; so, it would stand to reason that Trump will surround himself with savvy people in the White House and things will get better for the country.  

I'm beginning to wonder if I'm correct.  

Trump is whining and complaining that he's being out-maneuvered on delegates.  Does this mean the Democrats are going to out-maneuver him in Washington?  In this respect, Cruz is running circles around Trump; he's got a great ground game and he's deadly serious about doing whatever it takes to win the presidency.  Trump, on the other hand, has no ground game and appears to be faltering.  For example, here I sit in California, a state Trump is now going to have to win, and I've yet to see one Trump ad.  In fact, I think I own the only red "Make America Great Again" cap in the entire state.  

Trump needs a lot of strong and knowledgeable people around him.  Where are they?  When you stop and look at the mistakes Trump has made and the number of times he has blamed someone else, you really have to ask if this is not just political deja vu... another Obama all over again.  

Come on, Donald.  As Barry Goldwater said... if you're really serious about winning, it's time to shit or get off the pot.  

REPUBLICAN HIERARCHY IS DUMB, DUMB, DUMB

The party bosses have made so many mistakes over the last twenty or so years that there's not enough space on the Internet to list them all.  The biggest single mistake they've made is in thinking that they can pull the wool over the eyes of their members for ever and ever... and get away with it.  

They now find themselves having to burn the midnight oil trying to figure out how to retain their establishment power in the face of Trump evil.  Smart folks would wake up, realize their mistakes and change their ways.  

CLINTON, HER FOUNDATION AND THE PANAMA BANKING SCANDAL

Uh, yeah... The FBI has been looking at Hillary's emails to determine whether or not donations to the Clinton Foundation have actually been tied to favorable actions on her part when she was Secretary of State.  And now the plot thickens.  

John Podesta, who is Hillary's campaign manager, has a brother who has ties to Russia's Sberbank; he's listed as being their lobbyist.  He's also been bundling campaign contributions for Clinton's campaign.  Sberbank is linked with companies used by members of Russian president Vladimir Putin’s inner circle to shift government funds into personal offshore accounts, including those in Panama.  

This could well be the iceberg that sinks the Titanic.  

RUSSIAN'S GROWING NUCLEAR STOCKPILE

Totally disregarding its treaty agreements with the U.S., Russia has added over 150 nuclear weapons to its weapons closet over the last year.  Nuclear weapons are weapons of mass destruction; it is estimated that there are more than enough such weapons held by either America, China or Russia to end all life on the planet.  

There's only one reason you add to such a horrible capability: you strongly think the need may arise to use it.  

In showing that the U.S. is determined to prevent Putin from using his nuclear weapons to gain dominance over the globe, Barack Hussein Obama has reduced our stockpile by 57 nukes in the same period.  

Maybe gun control will become a moot issue?
