But if P.R. becomes a primarily Democrat Party state (which would not be wise but it's currently most likely in statehood) one simple thing entirely with our ability is: Like I've done for a few other misguided states: They will also be boycotted. Not on my radar and not directly receiving our business or money. No one from there hired; No products purchased; No venues or services used in-transit. It's this little thing we can do. Multiply that by 75-100 million + of us or more (who have the means to travel); it may be something they want to consider. Statehood? Maybe OK; but Democrat? Look at the record and think about it. I know they are misled; but they are not fools.

I don't believe there will be a turnaround unless somehow the Leftist mob's education system,"Press" and internet that they control change their ways. The American public, with no sense of history and never-ending censorship of conservative thought, is completely malleable in the hands of the likes of AOC and the corrupt, lying, demented doofus we now have in the White House. Biden's plans to welcome D.C. and Puerto Rico into statehood will thrust four more liberal senators into our lives, and unless the unions raise hell in response to the thousands of jobs being lost (that are directly to Biden's executive orders) with no promise of more entitlements due to those losses, I see no way for conservatives to even be heard. Add in the RINOs already present, and we can count on more loss of freedoms. Josef Stalin couldn't have planned it better.<br /><br /> At this time, Biden and crew are the de facto dictators. They now own the CIA, FBI and other agencies that exist without voter input. The Constitution has been trashed, and I feel that the country is now wide-open for a military and economic takeover by China, with or without their Russian allies. Who would have ever thought that a President would get away with so many destructive edicts and re-establish the onerous policies established by Obama. No shots fired, and little comment in what used to be objective news---prompted by spirited debate and exchange of ideas. <br /><br /> My faith in the American voting public has been thoroughly destroyed, and the only bright spot is that I won't have to personally live through the complete fall of the nation, and it will surely fall. I'm waiting now for national rent control; a mandatory gun buy-back and national gun registry; a new law that will prohibit further manufacture of internal-combustion autos; new laws mandating "reprogramming" classes for children and adults; elimination of laws regulating citizenship for immigrants; higher minimum wage laws for both government and private employees; more red flag laws that eliminate due process; a judicial system solely based on "identity politics," "equity" and "diversity;" jail time and fines for "extremists" who speak out against federal and state governments. <br /><br /> Our elected officials are smart; they know that there will be no uprising if they can only hand out (redistribute) money to those unemployed who would have ordinarily been enraged for having been put out of work due to the incompetence of our elected officials. Free "entitlement" money paid has acted as a salve that numbs anger and feelings of betrayal. To summarize: The once-free market system has been rigged for destruction. We have lost; they have won. I can only hope that our children and grandchildren will someday figure it out, but I'm not betting on it.<br /><br /> Alfonso Bedoyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12275837016861108459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-15030781314266164592021-01-30T15:46:16.023-06:002021-01-30T15:46:16.023-06:00@Stilt - I'll still support you if you get car...@Stilt - I'll still support you if you get carted away on a fake charge.

I'm not wildly optimistic in the short run ("short run" being my remaining lifespan) because the evil lunatics have got the cultural momentum now - and draconian enforcement powers. I certainly hope that viable challenges to all this arise, but I can't yet see where they'll come from. Let's hope we're pleasantly surprised.<br /><br />@TrickyRicky- I'd be pretty damn bad at remembering any works of literature verbatim. Although I remember my one line from a school play about 60 years ago: "Your father's garden is the one sore spot in the Alcalde's life." After which all of us onstage sang "My Beautiful Wide Sombrero." It was, as they say, a simpler time.<br /><br />@Fish Out of Water- They did indeed. But only because Fahrenheit 451 was written long before butt-friendly thumb drives.<br /><br />@DougM- Tell them you're not home!<br /><br />@John the Econ- See, when the Germans tell you that you're going overboard, it's really time to listen.<br /><br />@Mark McKinney- Hey, when I get a nice "attaboy" it makes <i>my</i> day! <br /><br />@Colby Muenster- I agree with your whole list except for making me President. I might, however, make a decent Oval Office Jester.<br /><br />@Sortahwitte- I still haven't wrapped my head around this ongoing trainwreck either. Hell, I haven't adjusted to daylight saving time yet (really)! And thanks for the reminder that I need to start carrying chalk...<br /><br />@JohnF- Good suggestion about making backup plans to have others communicate the situation in case I'm suddenly indisposed. As far as springing me, arranging bail or sending pastries packed with power tools will suffice. <br /><br />@dmv gringo- You're right, but it may be a distinction without a difference. There's still "free speech" for those who want to kiss Biden's rear end and those who are firehosing radical hate in our direction. But when "free speech" only allows one view, it isn't free at all.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-86421263900969664192021-01-29T15:22:32.340-06:002021-01-29T15:22:32.340-06:00@Chizbro (and others who had problems with the 2nd...@Chizbro (and others who had problems with the 2nd link)- It should be fixed now. If you're still having a problem, make sure you refresh the blog page to update the link!<br /><br />@M. Mitchell Marmel- Is "Fahrenheit 2021" yours?! Because I want to run with it. Really!<br /><br />@Velveeta Processed Cheese Food- While my purpose has always been to entertain and vent, the old stuff really does hold up well as a contemporaneous history of a lot of stuff that the left would like us (or force us) to forget. As I look back over 12 years of this (!) I'm both humbly proud and saddened that the accuracy of my writings has been proven by time.<br /><br />@NaCly Dog- Feel free to post and share! I want to decentralize this stuff and the more it spreads the better I like it. Plus, in case anyone ever tries to claim I wrote something that I didn't, I like the idea of having a lot of copies out there!<br /><br />@jpb252- Amen.<br /><br />@Roger Myers- Good point! I just read about the Chinese using anal swabs to check for Covid. Which seems like the hard way to get to someone's sinuses, but at least they don't have to take their mask off.<br /><br />@Fish Out of Water- I know speech suppression isn't new, but holy CRAP - the Dems have lost their friggin' minds.<br /><br />@Duke of URL & Philb3- the link should be fixed now. Let me know if you still have problems!<br /><br />@Jerryskids- I would never have believed that I would someday need to worry about having my harmless and reasonably-lovable self suddenly thrown into a black van and be made to disappear to some gulag. But yes...here we are. Living under the actual oppression that the left accused Trump of for four years, but was never a reality.<br /><br />And yeah, not many people will care if I get carted away on a fake charge. Although I do have an unnamed card to play that might at least get me noticed for a nanosecond or two.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- I'm humbled that you've backed my stuff up. And the story about your friend being visited by the fibbies is disconcerting.

Time for "the people" to take back control.<br /><br />I forget the exact ratio, but I believe 2/3 (or 3/5) of the states can create new amendments to The Constitution. We need:<br /><br />1) Term Limits. Senators get two 4 year terms; congressmen get two 4 year terms.<br />2) Permanent Senate and House rules; not ones that change with every election.<br />3) Federally mandated election rules, which include voter ID, banning electronic voting and voting by mail.<br />4) A Supreme court judge MUST preside over any impeachment, and the opposing party gets to pick which judge.<br />5) Rules that media must abide by if they want to be classified as "news" outlets with Constitutional protections, break one rule, and you become an opinion tabloid with zero protection.<br />6) Bolster the second amendment by putting a stop to gun laws that violate it.<br />7) Balanced budget amendment that has a maximum tax ceiling tied to it.<br />8) Somehow, put a top to the executive and judicial branches "creating" laws out of thin air.<br /><br />And last but not least:<br /><br />9) Make Stilton Jarlsberg President for life.Colby Muensternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7492406791849373430.post-44923050252550806092021-01-29T12:03:08.216-06:002021-01-29T12:03:08.216-06:00When I get something from you it makes my day.

All that's happened over the last several years is that they've finally succeeded in infecting the rest of society with what has been passing as deep thought on college campuses for the last 3 decades.<br /><br />So considering that the state has now decided to throw its weight at a meme writer really shouldn't be a surprise either.

From Pennsylvania Ave to Wall Street to Silicon Valley the warnings of Orwell and Rand have now become operations manuals. The US Constitution has been rendered into a segmented roll. <br />I foresee the ChiComs not needing to invade, the Dhimmicrats will welcome them in with open arms, expecting to become co-rulers. I expect, however, that the ChiComs will treat them like Uighurs. It is also possible that Kurt Schlichter's fictional dystopian series may be moved to non-fiction. <br />If I were 30, even 20 years younger I might have a more optimistic expectation of being able to help stop it, or at least escape it. If a Gault's Gulch did exist, no one is looking to direct me to it. <br />There has to be some conservative minded entrepreneurs who will provide web access and digital sanctuary for patriots to preserve constitutional rights.
