Who was the last drunk president?

Posted on October 27, 2016 | 2 comments

Grant, maybe? He drank a lot during the war. Whoever it was, it looks like if she wins Nov. 8,  the Hildafelon will be the next one, according to HeatStreet:

“Hillary Clinton campaign aides had a frantic email exchange in August 2015 over who should call the candidate to “sober her up some” at around 4:30 in the afternoon. According to documents published by WikiLeaks, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta emailed communications aide Jennifer Palmieri with a question at around 2:00 p.m. “Should I call her and talk this through or better to leave with you?” Podesta wrote. “I’m worried she’ll get on with Cheryl [Mills] and we’ll end up in a bad place.”

“Palmieri wrote back more than two hours later with a response: “I think you should call her and sober her up some.”

At 4:30 in the afternoon, folks.  We thought she had neurological problems, remember? When she had to be helped up some steps? When she almost collapsed getting into her van? Parkinson’s? Epilepsy?

Could be she was just drunk as an old skunk.

While Trump, we are told, doesn’t drink alcohol at all.

Trump’s Proposed Presidential Actions

Posted on October 25, 2016 | Comments Off on Trump’s Proposed Presidential Actions

FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama

SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice Scalia from one of the 20 judges on his list, who will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States

THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities

FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants from the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that won’t take them back

FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be considered extreme vetting.

No. 3 will be wonderfully entertaining to watch/hear in Austin—especially the howls.

If the dominant, i.e. Democrat news media would report on these and the rest of the policies Trump stated in his Gettysburg speech, he would win in a landslide. But of course they won’t. They’d rather talk about women who claim he fondled them. Gotta get the Hildafelon elected, you know.

‘Ballot harvesting’ in Fort Worth

Posted on October 17, 2016 | Comments Off on ‘Ballot harvesting’ in Fort Worth

Well, technically Tarrant County, but the only city of any size there is Fort Worth. Where voting is being investigated by the state for “ballot harvesting,” an interesting form of paper voting fraud that still works in the computer age.

Never mind hacking a voting machine. Never mind voting the dead. Simply beg, buy or steal enough paper mail-in ballots to/from the elderly and the poor to make a difference in an election. Fill them out the way you want, affix the appropriate fraudulent signature and away you go.

If the election you’re out to defraud goes one way or the other by only a few score votes, as some sometimes do, your fraud is in business and you’ve saved yourself the need to learn computer programing or hire some criminal hacker to do it for you.

UPDATE:  Sometimes a rogue insider can upend the paper process all by his own self. And, the investigation intensifies with a reward offered for tips.

Private rockets still flying (and landing)

Posted on October 5, 2016 | 2 comments

1475685287-craft

This the landing, the fifth landing from the edge of space of this Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin booster, in a successful test of the crew capsule’s escape system. Watch it all here, scroll down to the video and begin it at 50:51.

Nice to know engineering work continues near Van Horn in West Texas without the mud-slinging and biased journalism of the presidential fandango. Should be said that our little Barry Hussein stimulated these private rocket ventures by forcing NASA to help them out while getting out of the way.

Coyotes

Posted on August 11, 2016 | 1 comment

Not the human trafficers across the Texas-Mexico border called coyotes, but the animal kind. City of Austin is telling neighborhood associations the animal kind are becoming plentiful and to watch out for them wandering into yards in search of food and water. And then preying on small pets let outdoors.

“Haze coyotes when seen,” a city news release says. “And always supervise small pets when outside. Hazing keeps these adaptable animals wary of humans and less likely to hang around. Yelling, waving your arms, spraying the animal with a hose or tossing non-edible objects near it will encourage it to leave.”

Shoot. And I thought the Californicator invasion was the main thing we had to worry about.

Go get ’em, Ted

Posted on July 21, 2016 | 8 comments

“’To those listening, please, don’t stay home in November,’ he said. ‘Stand, and speak, and vote your conscience, vote for candidates up and down the ticket who you trust to defend our freedom and to be faithful to the Constitution.’

“At this, the crowd stirred in discontent. Heckling broke out in some quarters. Boos could be heard behind the applause. Cruz was unfazed. As he closed, the volume in the stadium kept rising, equal parts applause and booing. Some were aghast, others elated as it dawned on everyone that Cruz was going to finish without endorsing Trump, and that he had appealed to the delegates and voters at home to ‘vote your conscience.’

“Then Cruz smiled, waved, and walked off the stage. He knew exactly what he was doing.”

Cool, Ted. Maybe it’ll help down the line. But I’ll still vote for Trump, because the alternative would be so much worse.
