I still remember, however, Charlie chasing a woman down the street trying to tighten her hex shaped buttons with two wrenches.<br /><br />McCain... I don't watch much network TV, but it seems every time I turn it on, there is some Democrat singing the praises of the (choke - cough) "Maverick." the only thing maverick about that guy was his in your face determination to buck every good idea of his own political party.<br /><br />Moon landing done up Hollyweird style... As a youngster, I was enthralled by everything NASA and wouldn't miss a launch or splashdown. I even named my dog Gus Glenn Alan. In my adult years, I dragged the family to the Kennedy Space Center, and was like a kid in a candy store. I loved "Apollo 13" and "The Right Stuff;" I've watched them many times each. So now, a bunch of California retards made a movie about the first moon landing, but don't want to offend moonbats by putting in the flag of the USA?! I'm pretty sure that the huge amounts of money spent to get those guys to the moon and back all came form US taxpayers. The Canadians didn't put up a penny as far as I know, so there was no friggin' maple leaf on the moon in 1969. Also, as far as I know, every last nut and bolt that went into those ships were made in the USA. The Saturn V did not have Rolls Royce or Toyota engines. Yes, Dr. Von Braun was a German, but became an American citizen in 1955 and was paid by American tax money.<br /><br />Sheesh!<br /><br />Done ranting now...

You would think the Queen of England died. The only good thing about the slavish displays all over the media is it has kept Omarosa, Mueller, Stormy, Cohen, Avanetti and the like off that valuable airtime, at least for awhile. Trump I expected, but when I heard that spiteful little man rejected the only person who injected any chance of winning into his moribund campaign, that was the final straw. Instead he has George W. Bush, whom he despised, and the man who defeated him and rubbed it in his face and who damn near ruined our country, as speakers.

Maybe we did it for all mankind, but that doesn't make it less of an <i>American</i> achievement. The symbolism was and is important: it shows what a free people can accomplish. Too bad that's not a politically correct message to convey to the world anymore.<br /><br />@Roger Myers- Are there <i>any</i> Republicans who haven't been accused of racism? It gets so old...<br /><br />@Fish Out of Water- I think McCain disinvited Palin not so much because of herself, but because he wanted to send a signal (well, a finger) to the Tea Party folks who were energized by her addition to McCain's moribund campaign.<br /><br />@REM1875- That must have been a fun day for McCain, going through a checklist of who is and isn't invited to the funeral. I wonder if he also made out a seating chart?<br /><br />@Jim Irre- Just a mite.<br /><br />@Bobo the Hobo- I'm pretty sure it's offensive to socialists to mention "careers"...<br /><br />@PvtCharlieSlate- The original mercurial disposition.<br /><br />@Emmentaler Limburger- I think "Gallium" should be called "Liberated-womanun." And I'm pretty sure I don't want to sample any produce which was fertilized by the late Senator. And thanks for the Claritin tip!<br /><br />@Laura D- The name <i>does</i> have a familiar Ring to it.<br /><br />@Geoff King- The "I'm offended by that inoffensive word" game could go on endlessly. In fact, it already has.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- Don't drink the beer <i>too</i> far ahead of time - there's likely to be a line.<br /><br />@MSG Grumpy- By wild coincidence, Monday happens to be the birthday of <i>my</i> twin brother. I guess we know how our parents spent New Year's Eve!<br /><br />@Alfonso Bedoya- I genuinely hope this flag-snubbing really costs the film at the box office. The filmmakers could easily have sold the idea that this event was for all mankind while still including the flag-raising scene. But no - they're choosing to treat the American flag as offensive, and I say to Hell with them.<br /><br />@Geoff King- Still, people say they monkey around.<br /><br />@valvenator- Maybe the Lefties will attend the flick if they hear "it's the Neil movie." (Note: strained Colin Kaepernick joke).<br /><br />@TrickyRicky- Very well put. We <i>did</i> "build that." American ingenuity is a real thing, and the entire frickin' world should celebrate it.<br /><br />@rickn8or- Nor has any alien craft landed in a metric country and said "Take me to your liter." That's true - you can look it up on Snopes.<br /><br />@Alej- Also, ixnay on the gay apparel.<br /><br />@AmyH- Amazing how many of the greats have their birthday on that date (grin).<br /><br />@CenTexTim- And isn't "moon" offensive?

Is this a surprise? The only thing that gets me is that half of those people considered him a Nazi when it counted and suited their agenda. With friends like that, who needs enemies?<br /><br /><b>Slapping the Monkey:</b> I refuse to get particularly excited about this. IMHO, it probably wasn't the brightest thing to say considering the environment in which it was said. But since I've been called a racist for far less for pretty much all of my life, I've embraced it. Don't care. As for the Democrat Sandernista, I like when socialist experiments take place far from where I live.<br /><br /><b>Hillary's Server:</b> The only surprise should be that there is surprise. I'm just impressed that this story saw any light at all, considering the MSM's <a href="https://twitter.com/iowahawkblog/status/332494589934047234?lang=en" rel="nofollow">diligent work at ignoring it</a>.<br /><br />The other server story that has successfully been snuffed with a pillow:<br /><br /><a href="https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/21/politics/imran-awan-sentencing/index.html" rel="nofollow">Former House IT staffer at center of debunked conspiracy theories avoids jail time</a><br /><br />Good work, CNN. <i>"Debunked conspiracy theories"</i>? It's pretty tough to "debunk" something that you lacked the curiosity to investigate in the first place. It guess they get to consider it "debunked" because the deep state is letting Awan off the hook.<br /><br />Never mind <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/the-awan-it-scandal-put-congressional-data-at-risk_2489845.html" rel="nofollow">the scam being run by the Awan family</a> was at least as bad as Manafort's crimes. Of course, there will be no questioning of the 44 Democrats who let this happen, and continued to pay Awan long after it was public what had happened.<br /><br />Meanwhile, the Pakistanis now have pretty much all the dirt on the Democratic leadership. Expect Pakistan to become our new best friend the next time the Democrats are in power. What follows that will probably make the Iran deal look like chump change.<br /><br /><b>First Man:</b> You'd think that by now, Hollywood, which still is largely a commercial venture, would be getting the message: <i>You didn't build that-ism is so 2015. Want more Trump? Because this is how you get more Trump.</i><br /><br />America landing (and returning, which was the real trick) people on the moon in such a short time frame was an unprecedented technical and political achievement. It's both sad and ironic that we may never again match an achievement such as this because of the attitude of this movie's directors/producers.<br /><br /><b>And my Contribution:</b><br /><br /><a href="http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2018-08-29/chelsea-manning-australian-government-may-ban-entry/10180236" rel="nofollow">Chelsea Manning: Federal Government preparing to ban US whistleblower from Australia</a><br /><br />Imagine that. <b><i>Manning has been barred from entering a former penal colony.</i></b><br /><br />Have a great weekend all!John the Econnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-45462698349745917142018-08-31T11:00:18.638-05:002018-08-31T11:00:18.638-05:00I give up.
