At What Point Do You Stop Listening?

The press just can't get enough of the "feud" between President Trump and The Squad of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib and that overt Jew hater, Ilhan Omar.

It's the media corps that have elbowed Nancy Pelosi to the back of the room and put the spotlight on these four Horsewomen of the Apocalypse and it is they who are the reason that this is all a big deal.

It's not a big deal.

If you're worried that people may be believing all the zany things these people are saying just because they're all over the airwaves, I wouldn't be.

It isn't like the political arena lacks for want of crazy, prescription-drug crazed politicos because there seems to be no short supply.

I don't blame the Socialist Sisters for being camera hogs, I blame the people who are supplying the cameras. It's Fox News and "The World is Coming to an End" Drudge Report that are making the most political hay out of this. Talk about "It's all about the Benjamins".

All the accusations of "Racist" and constant media deluge of media hate towards the president, the wobbly GOP who would still rather have Hillary Clinton than prosperity and a good economy, the radical leftist states that every day announce another reason for their working citizens to get the hell out of there, it's all for naught. It's just the constant stream of nothingness and minutia that the "News" has become today. Nothing more than an incessant drone of negative energy, causing no good and if you listen too long, will cause mental instability.

In the Oppressive Ogres Corp where I work I share an office with another person. He's a political guy and a Trump supporter and each day he can't help but peruse MSN, CNN, Politico and other such non-sense media sights and read me some of what they say. He gets upset about it. I say, "I don't understand why you do this to yourself, you already know what they're going to say." But he can't help it. He gets even more upset when Fox says the same thing.

"Stop reading that crap!" I insist, "You're going to drive yourself Koo-Koo!"

And here we are.

I've checked out. I don't give a flying Phitt about what any of these people have to say or the so-called "conservative" media outlet that gives them a forum because I know it's all just about ratings and the advertising dollars they bring. Fox isn't in business to "Defend the Republic", they're in business to make a buck and if you're stupid enough to jump through a hoop or run into the streets in outrage every time they come up with a "Crisis' then you have nobody but yourself to blame. It's all just Street Theater for the Rubes.

As my older brother used to say to me all the time...

"Don't be an idiot."

It's not going to make one iota of a difference when it comes time to vote. Nobody is actually picking up what they're putting down and all the dead people in the country won't be able to out-vote the living when the time comes.

Because, quite frankly, even though we are not all "Brothers under the Skin" like most whackos want you to think, we do all want the same basic things.

We all want a roof over our head. We want a good livelihood for ourselves and a future for our children. This includes an acceptable level of education and opportunity for them to pursue their interests when they are old enough to decide and choose.

We all want...stuff! Whether it be a nicer car than most people drive, a boat, a nice house with central air conditioning and nice patio furniture. Oh, and a patio!

And we're all too willing to work for it, to drive great distances daily to get to our chosen places of employment and to withstand most daily torments of American life to get this...stuff!

Now I don't care where you're from originally. If you grew up here, you'r ruined for any place else anyway. Once you are "Americanized" you're screwed. No, we should figure out what to do with the Dreamers because even though your name may be Hernandez and you're parents are from Mexico, you'd be fucking lost in Mexico. I have black friends that went to The Gambia for a visit. They're like, "Wholly shit, I couldn't live there!" Of course not, your a friggin' American. You haven't washed a dish by hand since childhood never mind having to live on rice and beans. They don't even have cable!

So anyway, no matter what your background, if you're working for a living, trying to play by the rules and putting up with hearing all this whacko bullshit on the television and radio, when you finally get to the voting booth this November are you really going to pull the lever for what these nutjobs are trying to sell you?

No, I don't think so.

Like me, you may not have the best setup but it's working. You can go out every so often, have dinner and drinks, maybe once a week, take in a show, go for a hike, hit the gym and have some semblance of a decent career and life. You're hanging in despite the effort. But you know as well as I do that if you let this group of Quarter-Stalins get a hold of the means to your paycheck and livelihood, it could all turn to shit in a hurry.

There'll be no place to go but down...

And everybody knows it.

Muslim Hordes Poised to Overrun Europe!

Doesn’t look like the European Union has spent any time studying the “American Example” of letting too many people into the country that have no vested interest in the nation beyond receiving benefits that the taxpaying citizenry receives but also pays for. With some reports stating that anywhere from 51% to 71% of our burgeoning illegal immigrant population receive some form of assistance whether that be Food Stamps, Section 8 type housing allowance, WIC (Women, Infants & Children) Benefits, A Welfare Stipend, Free Public School Education for the kids, Instate Tuition for the college bound kids and Free Health Care. Take your pick.

What is happening in the United States is that the government is jamming large groups of kids into public school systems that don’t speak English and expecting the teachers to prepare them, as well as the other students in those classes, for mandated evaluation exams. Increasing class sizes and integrating non-english speaking students is a recipe for disaster. What is happening also is that communities are being put under tremendous pressure to house these people and to provide for their needs. 

The bottom line is that there are quite a bit of resources going to these people that are paid for by resident taxpaying workers in a time of economic contraction and declining wages. Every dime that is taken for this assistance means less for the people who pay, less for the businesses they would otherwise frequent and less for the overall economy of the nation. In short: A downward spiral. 

The reason why we are stumbling through the Obama years is that too much is given away for free and the people who are paying for it have to make hard economic choices when it comes to their spending. It’s the taxpayer that is going without, not the illegal immigrant.

This imbalance has proven to be the unsettlement of the nation.

The reason we even had Health Insurance in the first place was to protect us from crippling balloon payments connected with costs of health care. But now we have big payments for everything AND we still have to pay the insurance premiums.  It’s like we’re paying into a system so that we can be allowed to pay into the system. And on the other end, it’s all being handed out for little or no costs. Their costs are SUBSIDIZED by the American taxpayer who, right now, is struggling to keep ahead of the rising costs of food, housing and yes, HEALTH CARE.

This model will not stand.

Yes, the United States is a melting pot but this is not the way to do it. 

On to Europe!

So now the turmoil of endless warfare and the ever growing injection of increasingly sophisticated weaponry into the region by the United States in its unthinking effort to “Shovel Shit Against the Tide” in the Middle East has started an Exodus.  And since the EU has enacted welcoming laws like those of the United States, rather than stand and fight, the great unwashed masses of the Middle East have decided to take the path of least resistance and head to the wealthiest states in the Union. They can give two shits about Hungary or Poland, heck, they got nothing for them. No, they are making a B-line towards Germany and Austria, the most well-to-do, for now, states in the EU.

And why not, these people aren’t just content to be out of their war-torn countries, they want MORE. More of what YOU have since you have become rich beyond measure in comparison to them.  THEY want what YOU have. And now’s the time you give it to them.  After all, you’re suckers to begin with so why not see how much they can take? It’s only human nature.

AND the added benefit of the Middle East is that these hordes asking for help from the Christians are Muslim, a group that is notorious for not assimilating into countries they invade. And why should they? It is YOU that must change. Witness the protests and the demands these interlopers have been making in Hungary. Will they be any different somewhere else? I think not.

Hungarian leader Vicktor Orban, has been heavily criticized in the International Press for being, of all things, Nationalistic! He has referred to the immigrants as "illegal". He has warned that Christians will be the minority in Europe it this mass migration continues. He has been accused of hypocrisy because he was raised an Atheist. It’s as if it is a crime in itself to have a love of country or perhaps to even find God, especially if it is a Christian one. Seeing the situation for what it is has made Mr. Orban a lightning rod for scrutiny. 

But for whatever reason, we already have evidence of what happens in countries where the Christians become a minority. They get Run Out on a Rail or killed and their churches burned. This has been happening recently in India, Egypt, Syria and Saudi Arabia, Niger and Israel to name just a few.

When people are out to get you, “Paranoia” becomes just “Good Thinking”.

It is easy for The Global(ist) Media to criticize people opposed to this human influx, put out pictures of drowned kids and lead the charge to champion the "plight" of these poor, poor, poor people who have the money to pay thousands of dollars for passage and who all seem to be holding smart phones. It won't be THEY who will have to deal with the consequences of this mass immigration.

But ultimately it is the competition for resources that will be the biggest conflict. With nations heavily in debt, where is the money going to come from? With large groups of unmutable peoples, how are the host countries going to deal with the discontent that will invariably arise from too many people chasing too few resources. How can a country the size of Germany possibly prepare for 300,000, 500,000, 800,000 people?

Good question, glad I asked it. 

Why Europe? 

A question also comes to mind of why, with all these other Muslim countries these "Migrants" can "Emigrate" to, are all these people heading straight to Europe? Wouldn't they rather be with people who believe in what they believe or is there something else involved?

We don't hear any pledges to take ANY of these Syrian refugees coming from Iran, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Indonesia, Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, Sudan, Algeria, Jordan or the UAE, No, it is Europe who will best set these people "yearning to be free" up in style better than any of these places with free lodging, clothes and free schooling. At least until they can set up their own separate religious schools.

Back in 1675 in New England, King Philip had the Colonials on the ropes early in what has come to be known as King Philip’s War. Towns like Springfield, Middleboro and Deerfield had to be abandoned or nearly abandoned and by putting people on the move, the more established towns were really put out in their efforts to support these “refugees”. It momentarily changed the war in the favor of the Indians. If it wasn’t for the scourge of European diseases and lack of food, King Philip may well have triumphed in his efforts to rid New England of the invaders. At least temporarily.

Putting people on the move has always been a good tactic in warfare since it ultimately destabilizes an enemy’s position when they have to absorb so many people.

This time the enemy has put people who are more like them on the move rather than like the people they are going to. Doesn’t take a genius to see the problems.

We need only look to America.
