Mars landing too risky

Posted on August 1, 2018 | Comments Off on Mars landing too risky

“In “Not Close Enough,“ a team consisting of NASA and international astronauts sits in orbit around Mars but doesn’t get to go to the surface.  NASA has decided it’s too risky.”

The story is from a good new book Blue Collar Space by Martin Shoemaker. Wherein NASA’s fear of losing astronaut lives is explored. That fear has crippled our space program, space lawyer Laura Montgomery argues. And it makes sense. Such that our only hope to ever land on Mars or do anything else except at great expense is with commercial space, and blowhards like Elon Musk.

If the Dims capture the House

Posted on July 28, 2018 | Comments Off on If the Dims capture the House

Historically the opposition party has taken part or all of the Congress in a mid-term election. So it would not be a surprise if the Dims do it in November. Impeachment of the president would be the first result, among other things.

“Most observers think the Democrats will, indeed, capture the House in November. Among other things, this will enable them to shut down the investigations that have slowly shed light on the extraordinary abuses of power that occurred during the Obama administration. All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men and women to do nothing.”

So get out and vote in November. The coastal elites that own the Dim party are notoriously lazy. The heartland and rustbelt working class could stop them.

Republicans: Party of the Working Class

Posted on July 27, 2018 | Comments Off on Republicans: Party of the Working Class

“Democrats are now the party of the rich! Not all kinds of rich people, of course. Mostly so-called ‘creative class’ types in the coastal regions, in tech, finance, and entertainment. People who make things out of raw materials—not so much.”

Because those people have turned Republican. They’re why Trump won and may go on winning this year and in 2020. And may be joined by Trump-backed Tea Party types as the establishment GOP is defeated. Because the working class get out and vote, while the coastal “rich” often can’t be bothered.

You say Beto, I say Beta

Posted on July 26, 2018 | Comments Off on You say Beto, I say Beta

“This is where we find our Texas Democrats today. With Betard Beta O’Rourke, the young soymigo from El Paso with a nationwide funding effort bringing sweet and skunky hippie money in from all over. This is their plan to defeat incumbent Senator Ted Cruz in the fall. And they will fail.  In the meantime, we shall point and laugh.”

The unprecedented presidency

Posted on July 25, 2018 | Comments Off on The unprecedented presidency

No honeymoon. None. Constant attacks from the Mediacrats, the Dims, his own party, the permanent bureaucracy, Leftists, celebrities, academics, etc. Yet he hangs in there. Doesn’t hide away.

Victor Davis Hanson: “Almost every aspect of American culture has been weaponized to delegitimize Trump….[President] Trump is said to be paranoid, uncouth, reckless, and crude. And he has been at times. But no prior president has been under investigation for 80 percent of his first two years in office, by an investigatory team that is so patently compromised by conflicts of political interest, and so unable to find collusion or wrongdoing in a sea of what is likely to turn out to be FBI, CIA, and Justice Department criminality in 2016.” Initiated by his predecessor, Bronco Bama.

The security breach Strzok ignored

Posted on July 24, 2018 | 1 comment

“The question is which of two scenarios is more likely true. Either 1) [FBI director of counter-intelligence Peter] Strzok was completely incompetent, or 2) his pro-Clinton bias displayed in the thousands of text messages between him and Page caused him to downplay this security issue and ignore it, because it could hurt his favored presidential candidate if it came to light.”—Swen Swenson at Instapundit.

“…according to the information [Texas Rep Louie] Gohmert received from the intelligence inspector general, something was causing Clinton’s server to send copies of all of her email communications outside of the country ‘to an unauthorized source that was a foreign entity unrelated to Russia.'”

Presumably China.

Treachery, thy name is Brennan

Posted on July 21, 2018 | 5 comments

“[Former CIA director John O.] Brennan, who supported the Soviet-controlled American Communist Party, meets the textbook definition of a useful idiot for the Russians. At the height of the Cold War, he cast his vote in 1976 for Gus Hall, the American Communist Party’s presidential candidate. He refused to take his Oath of Office on the Bible during his swearing-in ceremony.

“Brennan deplored Ronald Reagan’s description of the Soviet Union as an evil empire and joined other leftists in demanding that he pursue détente with Marxist thugs who make Putin look like a piker. During his time as Obama’s CIA Director he sanitized the concept of jihad and constantly whitewashed Islamic terrorism.

“Now that he’s left the armchair comfort of the CIA he has resumed the radicalism of his youth by calling for civil disobedience and the overthrow of a duly elected president.”

UPDATE: Kimberley A. Strassel in the WSJ: “Mr. Comey stands accused of flouting the rules, breaking the chain of command, abusing investigatory powers. Yet it seems far likelier that the FBI’s Trump investigation was a function of arrogance and overconfidence than some partisan plot. No such case can be made for Mr. Brennan…by his own testimony, he as an Obama-Clinton partisan was pushing information to the FBI and pressuring it to act.”
