Biden’s Ad-Libbing Becomes More Dangerous
Excerpt: There’s a place for strategic ambiguity, but this isn’t one of them. Alas, this weekend, President Biden exclaimed, “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power!” and then his staff rushed to clarify that the president “was not discussing Putin’s power in Russia, or regime change,” which is the opposite of what the president actually said.

Ukrainian National Anthem
A wonderful performance of the Ukrainian National Anthem by the Metropolitan Orchestra and Chorus and conducted by Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin. You will notice one singer, a young man in the middle of the group, who has his hand over his heart, and needs no song sheet. Because he is Ukrainian, and knows the anthem of his beloved country by heart.
Pass it on as a form of your support.

Random Thoughts for March, 2022

Feel free to post or forward.
Health Update
I had my six-month lung checkup 2/10/22. Mostly good. However the CT scan
showed three small nodules in the lower part of my lung. Looking at the scans,
if the doctor said I’d live 20 years, or die tomorrow, I’d have believed him.
They meant nothing to me. I might be aspirating my food as I eat fast (Thank
you Parris Island). The danger is that they will lead to infection that could
eat away my (only) lung. Another CT sca
& meet with Dr. on 3/10.
Might also be aspergillus, which forced the removal of my left lung in
2020. But this is my last one!
I’ve been to Respiratory Therapy
to get forced sputum tests, with mixed results. Tacrolimus lab sad I need to
lower my tac intake by .5mg.. Doc wants me to eat slower (good luck) and to
sleep with a wedge pillow they got me. He ordered a swallow test on 3/1. Results
mixed.
Had two biopsies on the left side
of my head. One was pre-cancerous. The other was Basil Small-Cell Carcinoma, a
not-too-dangerous cancer. They called at 9:45 am 2/22 for me to come in by
12:00 noon to have it removed, or wait until May. I was there at 11:45AM. They
said it shouldn’t come back. Stitches out 3/1.
My creatinine level
is 1.5. It has been about that for years, though it is above normal. I have
given up caffeine and drink more water—I don’t want to be on dialysis. My FEV
numbers were the same as last time (they are better at home, but declining). My
6-minute walk was better than last time. Diabetes and Osteoporosis are holding.
Will update this as needed.
I continue to march.

The Washington Stupid Sons-of-Bitches

Who would Jesus abort?
The Jacobins are gaining power.
When they have full control, the Terror will be next. Followed by an American
Napoleon. Whether the Republic will eventually be restored is uncertain.
When you pick a candidate based on race and gender rather than competence
and ability, what do you get? Kamala! Joe Biden hasn’t learned this lesson.
You may have to wear a mask to the polls this November, but if you vote
right, not afterwards.
I’m not old. I’m a teenager with special needs.
We are ruled by the hypocrites in the mask-less elite.
“The heart has its reasons which reason knows nothing of...We know the
truth not only by the reason,
but by the heart.” --Blaise Pascal
The principal feature of
contemporary American liberalism is sanctimoniousness. By loudly denouncing all
bad things — war and hunger and date rape — liberals testify to their own terrific
goodness. More important, they promote themselves to membership in a
self-selecting elite of those who care deeply about such things. People who
care a lot are naturally superior to we who don’t care any more than we have
to. By virtue of this superiority, the caring have a moral right to lead the
nation. It’s a kind of natural aristocracy, and the wonderful thing about this
aristocracy is that you don’t have to be brave, smart, strong or even lucky to
join it, you just have to be liberal. Liberals actually hate wealth
because they hate all success. They hate success especially, of course, when
it’s achieved by other people, but sometimes they hate the success they achieve
themselves. What’s the use of belonging to a self-selecting elite if there’s a
real elite around? Liberals don’t like any form of individual achievement. . .
. Also wealth is, for most people, the only honest and likely path to liberty.
With money comes power over the world. Men are freed from drudgery, women from
exploitation. Businesses can be started, homes built, communities formed,
religious practiced, educations pursued. But liberals aren’t very interested in
such real and material freedoms. Liberals want the freedom to put anything into
their mouths, to say bad words, and to expose their private parts in art
museums. --From "Give War a Chance" by the late P.J. O'Rourke.
In many parts of the world, democracy is just a way to get
power so you can kill the opposition.
It is hopeless signing treaties with Communist or Muslim autocracies.
They will only keep them as long as it is to their advantage. Then, so
sorry, the agreement is broken.
Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant. Then it tries
to silence good. –Arch Bishop Charles J. Chaput
People see what they want to see.
“The Democrats are the party that says government
will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn.
The Republicans are the party that says government doesn't work and then they
get elected and prove it.” -- P.J. O'Rourke
Truth is whatever a politician can convince the public is true.
“Tories win elections, but because of who runs the British state, Labour
is effectively always in power.” --Steven Edginton
Slaves used to be branded in many countries so you would know them. Now I
wonder if a mask doesn’t serve the same purpose.
Democrats were shrill in lobbying for a $15 minimum wage. Now, because of
Bidenflation, they may get it de facto, if not de jure.
Martin Luther King said:
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an
inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever
affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” Looking at you, China, Russia,
and big sports.
Here
in the United States, the combined BLM/antifa riots of summer 2020 caused the
greatest property damage claims of any riot in U.S. history, around $2 billion.
The violence eventually led to over 35 deaths, the torching of a federal
courthouse, police precinct, and historic Washington D.C. church, over 1,500
police injuries–and, mysteriously, very few indictments of some 14,000 people
arrested. –
Victor Davis Hanson
In October 2019, Joe Biden
pledged that, “Putin knows that when I am president of the United States, his
days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and those in Eastern
Europe, are over.” So much for that. –Jim Geraghty
The one thing that history really
seems to teach most strongly: people don’t learn much from history. That is,
generations continue to make similar mistakes. –Walter Russell Mead
