Democrats want to legalize child abuse.

CHILD ABUSE AND IMMORAL MEDICAL EXPERIMENTATION IN THE NAME OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS

DO WE NO LONGER PROTECT CHILDREN

As pledged during the election campaign Joe biden and the democrats have passed a bill that will endorse gender transition therapy for children. It will eventually likely force insurance companies and medical professionals to engage in these practices. During the campaign, Joe Biden was asked by a mother, concerned about the rights of her 8 year old male child, who she claims is a  transsexual girl. Biden voiced his support to changing all laws concerning gender transition in the military and also for 8 year old children. Having passed the house yesterday this abomination is on its way to becoming the law of the land.

This practice for children is an abhorrent practice that is discarding societies norm of protecting under age children. In this case from their parents and medical professionals who believe they can change the sex of these children.

Gender Dysphoria is claimed to be caused by an imbalance of hormones to the fetus during pregnancy.

Cases are diagnosed by counseling to conclude that the party in question is really a girl in a boys body. 

The prescribed therapy is then to treat the subject with hormone blockers, so that the patient will not mature during puberty as a male. Then they are given female hormones so that they will take on the physical characteristics of a female. One problem is they still will have the sexual parts of a boy.

There is no real possibility of making a male into a functioning female, even with gender reassignment surgery.

Many older people who have engaged in this practice often later regret it. There is also a very high rate of suicide among trans-gender people.

These are not decisions that should be made by minor children or their parents. What do these young children really know about gender and the consequences of this therapy.

This practice should be outlawed, and anyone who is responsible for giving or consenting to such therapy for a minor should be severally punished.

When someone reaches the age of 21, then they can make these decisions, if they think it is what they need to do. Can anyone predict what is going to be someones view of their gender after they go through normal puberty?

These are the types of experiments that we have seen in the past in Nazi Germany. Today, it seems 
anything is acceptable if people are intimidated by fearing they are not politically correct.

Are Americans becoming incompetent and dependent?

 IS PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY NO LONGER AN OPTION

IS EVERYTHING SOMEONE ELSE'S FAULT

It was with astonishment that I watched video's of crying women in Texas who were lamenting the water pouring from their ceilings and destroying their homes. The cause was, of course from frozen pipes caused by a 100 year event. The pipes were likely frozen for days and when it warmed up the water poured from the broken pipes. Did none of them think of turning off the water and possibly shutting off the electric to their pump. You would think everyone would think of a solution other than recording it and putting it on facebook.

Then there is the family suing the electric company, because a child froze to death when the electric went out. How come the other family members did not freeze? Are they saying they have no responsibility for the death of this child? Sounds more like a clear cut case of child neglect. 

We also see the result of the hysteria over renewable, but obviously unreliable renewable energy. Texas is dependent on windmills for 25% of their electric production. Did the experts inform everyone that windmills can freeze up in cold weather, just when the demand for electric goes up multiple amounts. It also has been revealed that windmills need to be kept warm in cold weather with what? electric heat. I suspect that there would be very few windmills and solar panels if they were not subsidized with federal grants and tax credits. 

I of course live in Pennsylvania, and I have been lamenting only seeing the sun for a handful of days in the last 3 months. Guess what, solar panels do not produce electric from daylight, it has to be direct sunlight. So if we were dependent on Solar in Pa. we would have electric for less than 10% of the days. The other thing is they will not work when covered by snow, so it would take a great effort to keep them clear even if the sun were out.

Wind and solar will never be a workable alternative to our present electric generation. Our only options for clean non fossil fuel electric generation is hydroelectric and nuclear power. When are we going to have a debate and discussion about where we are going concerning energy. Electric cars need electric and at present we have no plan to produce safe, clean reliable electric to run them. 

Rather than waste money on solar panels and windmills government money would be more productively spent on research and development of nuclear fusion. A truly clean and renewable energy of the future.

It is just another sign of the incompetence of our leaders and the incompetence of Americans who believe them and are dependent on them.

Congress wants earmarks, bribery by another name.

CONGRESS NEEDS TO MAKE CHANGES, EARMARKS IS NOT ONE OF THEM

TRADING OR BUYING VOTES SHOULD BE A FELONY

Congress in their infinite wisdom is claiming that the answer to a more bipartisan congress is to renew the practice of earmarks. This is were the powers that be can induce someone to vote for their bill by offering money or approval of projects in the congressman or senators state. Sometimes it is a trade, you vote for my bill and I will vote for your bill. It is just a form of bribery, plain and simple. It should be illegal, a felony and prosecuted in full. It is not in the best interests of the country.

Now how about some real reforms, why do elected officials operate under a system of seniority, why should one senator or congressman have more power than my senator or congressman. Just because his state keeps reelecting him because he brings home the bacon. It is never mentioned in the constitution that one elected official has more power than any other. House speaker and Senate leaders should be elected by secret ballot. Nominees for these positions and committee chairs should also be put up by secret ballot. This is real democracy. We keep hearing about preserving democracy, but they hypocritically don't want any such thing.

Seniority is an evil and should be unconstitutional. Representatives and senators are under great pressure to support these people and if they don't they will be punished in some way.  Do the citizens of this country believe the seniority system is in the best interest of the country?  Is this how democracy works? Would the Senate and House members vote for this, if given the opportunity? It would be a lot harder for special interests to influence legislation.  This one reform would change a lot about our government. 

Another possible reform is providing representatives an office in their district and this is where they would work. They are to be representatives of their districts to Washington, not representatives of Washington in their district. Congress would convene for 2 30 day sessions a year, mostly just for final voting on legislation. They would be provided housing during their session. All work on legislation would be done at home on zoom or other electronic means. What legislation to be addressed at the next session would be voted on at the end of a session. No voting on legislation in the same session as introduced. This would give representatives time to listen closely to their citizens. This would allow for more bi-partisanship and a more responsive legislature to their voters. It would make representatives more exposed to their district, instead of constantly exposed to the lobbying and elitist mentality of Washington.

Back to earmarks, why not give every representative $1 million annually to be spent on worthy projects in their district. This is only $50 million, a pittance in today's federal budget. Then the taxpayers could look at their representatives priorities. All this money would be the same for all representatives and it would not require a bribe to get it. 

Earmarks will not increase bipartisanship in the government, but it will be legalizing corruption. Eliminating the corrupt seniority system will go a long way in enhancing democracy and also would likely encourage bipartisanship.

Rush Limbaugh, always a positive optimistic message.

RUSH WAS LIKE FAMILY OR A BEST FRIEND

HIS AUTHENTICITY WAS HIS MAGIC

I have always been a radio listener,  from pre-television listening when going to bed, until always on as I worked or drove. As a family, we listened to radio in the late 40's and early 50's when we went to bed until we fell asleep, Amos and Andy, Jack Benny and others. Later I remember listening to the Lone Ranger and other stories at bed time.

Later in life I was always self-employed and while I worked at auto body, furniture restoration or in a retail environment, I always had the radio on. I remember listening to Garner Ted Armstrong and Bob Grant in the late 70's and early 80's.  Most of these programs were 30 to 60 minutes and only a minority of programming dealt with politics or other talk radio. Most programing was music and news and weather.

Rush Limbaugh came on the scene in 1988, at the end of the Reagan presidency. If I remember right, the left's big talking point and issue was homelessness, this was before national healthcare. Rush was excellent at dissecting their rational, pointing out the causes and solutions and at the same time playing songs like " I ain't got no home". 

Rush's success was that he validated the thoughts and opinions of millions of American's, who.up until then were discounted and ignored by most of media. Many were outraged that he would dare  to challenge the endorsed opinions. He was successful because he was real, he really believed what he said and so did millions of Americans.  He was able to present his opinions in a entertaining, sometimes humorous and optimistic way.

It was amazing that he could do a talk show, with him doing the vast majority of the talking, that was entertaining, enlightening and insightful. He did this for 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. If anyone has done speeches we know that after 20 minutes people start to loose interest. Rush had new material everyday and keep listeners attention for the whole 3 hours. It is a feat that is unlikely to be duplicated.

Again, his success was due to his authenticity, he believed what he said and would back it up with good arguments. He loved America and the opportunity it provides. He believed, as many conservatives, that all people have talents to make them successful, what is needed is cultivating those talents, doing something that you love and working hard..

Rush loved doing radio. He started out in Sacramento, California, was the announcer for the Kansas City Royals and finally found his place at age 37 in his famous Rush Limbaugh show. 

He was successful because he was authentic, loved what he did, and worked very hard. 

 

Bureaucratic bungling of Capital security.

CAPITAL POLICE CHIEF DENIED GUARD BACK-UP 6 TIMES BEFORE JAN.6

MOST WORRIED ABOUT A NEGATIVE VISUAL IMPRESSION

The capital police force has a contingent of 2000 officers and a $460 million budget to provide security for the 270 acre U.S. capitol. Their main back-up is the D.C. metropolitan police. Stephen Sund was the chief of police of the capital police on January 6. He and most of those under him were forced to resign by Nancy Polisi the day after the Jan. 6 incident. The capital police force is controlled by the house speaker and the senate leader through the capital police board.

In the days preceding the January 6. rally all those concerned had information that this rally was going to be exceptionally large and that there were some unruly behaviour expected. Chief Sund, asked anyone who would listen, for National guard back-up six times and was rejected every time. National guard has to be requested by the mayor of D.C. Muriel Bowser. It then has to be approved by the Pentagon.

Earlier it was reported that President Trump told Christopher Miller acting secretary of defence that he was letting them make their decisions concerning this event. He told them that a lot of people were coming and he recommended 10,000 national guard be brought in. Muriel Bowser would only approve 340 unarmed national guard.

The capital police knew they had a security problem as soon as 1:00 pm and started asking for help. There really was not much help quickly available. A reported conference call between D.C.government, capital police and the pentagon took place at 2.26 PM. The pentagon was reluctant to send in national guard as they didnt want to create a negative visual. They offered to back-up D.C. police so they could send more of their officers.

Finally, national guard was approved at 3.04 pm. It took approximately 2 more hours until they arrived on the scene. It would have been better if someone would have had complete authority to make these decisions, not just after the crisis was ongoing but beforehand. There could easily have been national guard stationed nearby in ready so they could have been deployed in minutes not hours.

Whenever you get emergency bureaucratic decisions, most freeze with fear that they will be responsible for a wrong decision. Their fear can be born out with the forced resignation by all those in leadership at the time, even when they were hindered in their job by other bureaucratic fear, when they attempted to make preparations beforehand.

We now hear calls for a 9/11 type of commission, a so called bi-partisan effort, a very unlikely proposition. You can bet it will all focus on Donald Trump, the arch enemy of the bureaucratic state.

It should be simple to get schools open.

IT JUST TAKES WILL AND MANAGEMENT ABILITY

LET TEACHERS AND PARENTS HAVE THE FREEDOM OF CHOICE 

There seems to be a dilemma about opening the schools, it should not be that hard. First, if some teachers are elderly or have health issues, let them take a voluntary lay-off. Voluntary lay-offs have been part of union negotiations for decades in other industries. Let the younger teachers open the schools and give opportunity to young teachers to fill in openings, if needed.

Some parents may fear sending their children back to school. Possibly because some children may have underlying health issues or their relatives who they live with have health issues.  Ok, give them options to fulfill their education requirement. Help them choose other possibilities. Maybe even give them a partial subsidy to make all this possible.

Just a matter of listening to the concerns of teachers and parents, while letting them know that the schools are going to open. Let them all make choices that make them comfortable it a positive way. Time to get over the one size fits all policy and forcing administrations to be put in a position to please everyone. Lay out the fact,  the schools are going to open and it is up to parents and teachers to make choices that make them feel comfortable.

Trump aquited again: Democrats, do you feel better now?

PARTISAN JUDGE/JUROR, EDITED VIDEO, HEARSAY FALSE WITNESSES, LAST MINUTE SURPRISE WITNESS

JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF DEMOCRAT PLAYBOOK

For 5 days the Democrats showcased their unrelenting hatred of Donald Trump, it ended the same as the Russian collusion fiasco, the Ukrainian /Biden corruption impeachment, emoluments, Stormy Daniels and numerous scandals initiated by anonymous unnamed sources. Will they ever step back and reevaluate their strategy for dealing with Donald Trump. I suspect not, they apparently just can't control themselves. 

What we witnessed is reminiscent of the Kavanaugh hearings. There is no depth that the democrat's will not stoop to accomplish their goal. It is amazing that they cannot overcome their hate and delusion to see themselves as half the country and the rest of the world sees them. I assume they just keep patting themselves on the back and congratulating themselves on a job well done. The media will also portray them as the relentless warriors for democracy and an example for the world.

Their performance just reinforced the belief that they cannot be trusted, ever. That anyone who behaves in this manner would undoubtedly do whatever is necessary to win an election. After all, that is how all this started, with an election that was suspect and just reinforced by their insistence that no one dare question anything to do with it. WHY?  If everything was on the up and up, they should be the first to call for a full audit and analysis, but no, they as much want to make questions about the election  unpatriotic and possibly illegal. WHY? 

As for Donald Trump, I suspect he will adapt to his new role in the political affairs of the nation. It looks like Biden is going to give him a lot of ammunition. I suspect he is fomenting a plan that may very well be more than just running for president. Will the media be able to resist talking about Donald Trump? Will the Democrats be able to ignore Donald Trump? I doubt it. 

Then there is the Trump or I should say the America first supporters, are they going to become  establishment republicans and vote for the likes of Toomey, Romney, Flake or Bush, I don't think so.  They are the new Republican party. I suspect there is going to be a lot of contested primaries in the future.

Many establishment republicans will join the ranks of Dent, Flake and McCain in being rewarded for their alliance with democrats and the bureaucratic state with ambassadorships and jobs in think tanks and the media. The deep state can still protect and nurture their loyal servants. After all, isn't that the goal of the majority of so called public servants.
