Nobody Wonders About Thomas Sowell’s Thinking
Nobody Wonders
The right of a nation to kill a tryant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.—John Adams
I am a BIG fan of Thomas Sowell, and I don’t think that I have ever read a piece by him that I could disagree with: But this week, Thomas sided with the progressive Republicans in saying that Ted Cruz did damage to the party by trying to defund Obamacare. Nobody has a different opinion on that matter, so Mr. Thomas, forgive me, but I must protest. (Read his article here.)
Thomas: The tea party’s principles were clear. But their tactics can only be judged by the consequences.
Nobody: Tell me Thomas, you are basically saying that the only time to fight for your principles is when you are sure to win that fight…right? I don’t think there were many men that signed the Declaration of Independence that thought America had much of a chance of winning that fight…and yet, they stood together on principle. You don’t win a fight with just one battle. Instead of attacking the one lone man who did, we SHOULD be attacking the rest of the men that didn’t stand, and that was most of our Congress.
Thomas: Since the tea party sees itself as the conservative wing of the Republican Party, its supporters might want to consider what was said by an iconic conservative figure of the past, Edmund Burke: “Preserving my principles unshaken, I reserve my activity for rational endeavors.”
Nobody: You reason here that because the democrats are in the majority, they can pass Obamacare and therefore fighting to defund it was “irrational.”
Irrational? If you know something is going to destroy America, do you stand aside because you don’t have the legislative power? That’s irrational. Your rationality depends on honest and fair elections, something that NO one has the power to verify since elections results are now done in Spain, in secret, and reported to an elite few. Where have you been Mr. Sowell? Vacationing? The whole process of our elections have been changed with technology. This is not the America you remember. Not to mention, the power of the Feds and the corporate lobbying. The ‘people’s voice is very little right now. We are being boiled like frogs.
Thomas: Most people outside the tea party recognized that defunding Obamacare was also beyond their power — and events confirmed that.
Nobody: Right…we knew we would lose, so don’t fight. We also knew that Obmacare had other nasty goodies in it—like establishing civil armies in our cities, and that it would doom us to poverty, and in many cases death, but hey, it will die of its own accord, right Mr. Sowell? With only a handful of men opposing it, why should we feel confident about that? We can’t. Ted Cruz looks like a hero right now with all the people losing their insurance. John Adams would have been right up there with him..
Thomas: With the chances of making a dent in Obamacare by trying to defund it being virtually zero, and the Republican Party’s chances of gaining power in either the 2014 or 2016 elections being reduced by the public’s backlash against that futile attempt, there was virtually nothing to gain politically and much to lose.
Nobody: Okay, what you are saying that since our principles are just, we should compromise them, in order for the progressive members of the party to remain in power. Right now, there is no public backlash against Ted Cruz. The public backlash is against Obama and his lies. You, dear sir, are still on page one.
Thomas: However difficult it might be to repeal Obamacare after it gets up and running, the odds against repeal, after the 2014 and 2016 elections, are certainly no worse than the odds against defunding it in 2013. Winning those elections would improve the odds.
Nobody: We have lost the last two Presidential elections with your kind of thinking. The power of the President trumps all of Congress at the moment. And the tea party will not vote for another loser, especially if they believe in Obamacare as Mitt Romney did. The Democrats will successfully smear all republicans because they are just better at it, and their people have been brainwashed by years of liberal education, and they are being supported by the government. This is all by design.
In the meantime, Mr. Sowell, people will die waiting for the RIGHT time to defund Obamacare. Tell me, if I have cancer, and lost my doctor, do I have to wait until 2016 to get my treatment? I could very well be dead. Does that matter to you? Or does the success of the ‘party’ matter more?
Thomas: If the tea party made a tactical mistake, that is not necessarily fatal in politics. People can even learn from their mistakes — but only if they admit to themselves that they were mistaken. Whether the tea party can do that may determine not only its fate but the fate of an America that still needs the principles that brought tea party members together in the first place.
Nobody: It’s just your opinion that the tea party made a mistake. From our side of the isle, because Ted Cruz was honest, and right to oppose this horrible death sentence to America, we are proud to follow his example. You’re the one making the mistake by siding with the progressive Republicans, who are run by the corporations and banks, and you have given in, probably to keep yourself employed. Don’t worry, Peggy Noonan did the same thing.
When Hitler was in power, would you have told the Jews to just wait to the next elections to protest?
Nobody Wonders what happened to Thomas Sowell great thinking cap, and if he will ever admit HIS mistake in taking political expediency to principle. Our founders didn’t wait, and one of the reasons our country has gotten to this horrible point, is because more good men did not stick up for principle. No, they WAITED until the NEXT election. They sold out their principles every single time.
You might want to live in a country like that Thomas, but I don’t.
You admit the tea party is right on principle, but wrong on ‘tactics.” I disagree, and probably because I have much more to lose than you.
Only time will prove which one of us is right.
Nobody Should Ask ME to Design Obamacare Posters!
Nobody Knows—
—Just what idiot is designing posters to try to get people to sign up for Obamacare, but I have to say, they SHOULD have called me! Let’s take a look at Obama’s suggestions:
With Obamacare, you will get laid more. (lie) With Obamacare, you can drink all you want because you can get a new liver! (lie) Go ahead! With Obamacare, you girls can get rough, and fight all you want, because your broken bone will be fixed! (lie) Trust us! You people are just sluts and alcoholics, and we know…you do need our help. (half-lie) But, here’s what I would have posted….
Got insurance?
Got insurance?
Got Insurance?
Got Insurance?
Would You Like a Dounut to Go Along With That Obamacare?
Nobody Flashes
Obamacare is changing things FAST: For instance, I went to my regular doctor last week, and found out, that he no longer wants to push me off on specialists…NO…he wants to take over all their jobs! Weird, I thought. The last time I was here he was complaining about having to refill a few prescriptions that I had gotten from “specialists” because my “specialists” had resigned, due to Obamacare. So, I went out and found more “specialists.” You’d think he would have been happy.
But now, the good doctor was willing to keep me from having to travel all over town going to different ‘specialists.’ To that I said, “Well, I thought you were just a general practitioner and If I came to you, you would just push me off to another specialist.” That’s what he has always done. I began to wonder if all these “specialists” were giving him kickbacks on every referral.
“Hey, I’ve been a doctor for over 15 years!” he said as he ran to his trusty computer and started typing out my “special” prescriptions.
And then we got to the— “You need a blood test so I can fill your prescriptions.” part.
Okay I said, I’ll go to the same place I always go— Quest Labs. They are all over the city, and before Obamacare, you could call them up and make an appointment. In and out. Piece of cake.
Well, I found out yesterday that those days are GONE. The good nurses at the lab will NOT be answering the phone. Nope. Obamacare has taken that luxury out of the equation.
You want an appointment, you have to make one on the computer (good luck with that) or just come in and sit and wait your turn. Just like in good old India.
Find a seat, and HOPE you get in. And good luck, if you have to fast eight hours before that test, which I do.
Something tells me, the sight of a donut at the Quest lab might cause a riot.
So, if you need some extra cash, you might want to set up a donut stand right outside your local medical lab, before they outlaw donuts.
And just think: Obama could say he was creating jobs.
Don’t you just LOVE turning into a third world country?
Nobody’s Perfect: Jimmy Kimmbel VS Michael Moore
Nobody ‘s Perfect
This week, we have two people very interested in death, and then they had to open up their mouths to talk about it….all in the name of humor. But, instead of getting laughs, they got critizied.
Let’s start with Jimmy Kimmel first. It seems China is upset that Jimmy Kimmel did not cut out this very interesting conversation he had with a little boy on his program:
From Reuters:
(Reuters) – China sharply criticized an American talk-show host on Monday for a remark made by a child on his program which has set off protests by Chinese-Americans in the United States.
The controversy blew up when a six-year-old replied “kill everyone in China” after the host, Jimmy Kimmel, asked him how the United States should pay back the $1.3 trillion it owes to the world’s second-largest economy.
Kimmel, who hosts a program called “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on broadcaster ABC, replied: “that’s an interesting idea”.
Yes, to the kid it was an obvious solution. Even though the kid sounded just like something the Illuminati has been saying for years…he was, after all…a kid. And no doubt, Jimmy helped put that fun line in his head, or not. The kid probably plays video games.
But Michael Moore is NOT a kid, and he tweeted this on Veterans day, which…was not exactly in good taste:
“Today, as every day, 22 American veterans will commit suicide. Happy Veterans Day!”
I’m sure the families of those who have lost anyone to suicide would not find this very funny. But he said it. and got his new movie promoted. And I can’t wait till Michael starts twerking because he is running out of stupid things to say. I think he has just about hit every stupid thing ever said on the planet…..he has to step it up a bit. Twerking with Miley would work. We need a Michael Moore Movie—” Twerking for Suicidal Veterans because Michael Cares.” Don’t you think? 
So, who wins the Nobody’s Perfect award of the week? Jimmy Kimmel or Michael Moore?
Do I HAVE to decide? Because I can’t. I can’t get rid of this mental vision of Michael Moore Twerking …sorry.
Obama Celebrates Martin Luther King Day on Veterans Day!
Nobody Reports
I watched Obama’s veterans day speech today at Arlington, and in my humble opinion, it was just another talk about race. Race, is the only thing that Obama has going for him. When the chips are down for Obama, Obama rises up to how prejudice people are against him, and blacks.
After talking about some woman who had been injured three times, and kept going back to Iraq (promoting women on the front lines) Obama had to bring out his token feather: The oldest living Veteran was 107 and black. If he had been white, you would not have seen him.
Yes—go ahead…use Richard Overton to talk about how Richard came home to a “nation bitterly divided by race” and how they did not always support blacks or respect them.
And then he said this:
“This is the life of one American veteran living proud and strong in the land he helped keep free. Earlier this year, the folks at Honor Flight Austin brought Richard to Washington, D.C., for the first time and he and his fellow veterans paid their respects at the World War II Memorial,”
Okay…does anyone else but me find it hard that he even mentioned this after this summer when Obama shut down the World War II memorial to all those vets? What a slap in the face to every veteran there.
“Then they visited the memorial to Martin Luther King Jr. and as Richard sat in a wheelchair beneath that great marble statute, he wept, and the crowd that gathered around him wept too to see one of the oldest living veterans of World War II bear witness to a day, to the progress of a nation he thought might never come. Richard Overton, this American veteran, is 107 years old,” Obama continued. “We are honored that he is here with us today
LOL! Leave it to Obama to tell the world that Richard was more impressed with Martin Luther King than that boring old World War II memorial.
Obama was also stating that the election of himself was the greatest moment in American history…basically, by mentioning “the progress of a nation.” He is just so proud of his country…for once in his life.
And YOU thought it was only Michelle who was proud of us racist bigots electing him.
Obama has decimated the military, left men behind, prosecuted generals, put women on the front lines, and gays in all the showers. But…he’s pretty good at killing people with drones.
This wasn’t a day about Obama, but somehow, he made it ALL about himself .
At least that’s my Nobody Opinion.
Nobody Remembers The Day A President Declared War on Veterans
Nobody’s Opinion
Instead of copying and pasting some “Happy Veterans Day!” picture, I thought I’d share a little history to ponder…about what some vets did in 1932:
********************
Our government has made a habit of not always honoring their promises…as we have all been witnessing with Obama’s lies and promises about how, “You can keep your doctor, period.” But, imagine how the good American men felt during the last great depression, when the government refused to pay them what THEY had promised. Back then, there was no such thing as food stamps. But in 1932, millions of veterans of WWI, traveled to Washington D.C. to collect the ‘bonus’ that was promised to them eight years before. The men were tired of waiting, and the talk in Congress was to defer the payments until 1945. In 1932, 32,000 businesses failed, and unemployment was up to almost 25 percent. Two million people wandered the country setting up shacks called “Hooversville” because they blamed Hoover for their plight.
(This was before credit cards.)
Just like George W. Bush, when the market crashed, Hoover couldn’t stand by and do nothing, so Congress passed a massive income tax increase–from 24 percent to 60 percent. And they kept spending, just like today. (Obama is the biggest spender in world history.)
Bad idea.
So the vets, who couldn’t find work anyway, took their families to Washington D.C, and built a small “Hooverville” around Pennsylvania Avenue near the Capital. They 
build an even bigger site on the outer reaches of the city and they called it Anacostia Flats. Over 25,000 people gathered there to take their claims that the government owed them. This protest came from all 48 states and the men were given food and free railroad passes from people in every state to help them get there.
Basically, they were all homeless, and starving.
Nevertheless–the people were peaceful…in fact, they had a commander in charge who rules were, “No panhandling, no liquor, no radical talk.” They even set up a school, a newspaper, and a library..The people in D.C., rich and poor, took them food.
Then on June 15, the House of Representatives passed the bonus bill 211 to 176. The next day, thousands of veterans surrounded the Capital in anticipation —- but the Senate defeated the bill. For a moment, it looked like the veterans were going to attack the Capital.
But…they didn’t. Summer ran on, many went home, but over 20,000 were still there.
The politicians were getting scared.
So, on July 28, Hoover ordered the police out. There were a few fights. One veteran lay dead, three policemen were injured. And then, General MacArthur, who had been training his troops for this moment, ordered his men to clear downtown of veterans. For the first time in American history, tanks were brought out into the streets, and 300 helmeted infantrymen, with loaded rifles and fixed bayonets, and gas masks, led by George Patton, cleared the streets.
From there they went out the camps and set fire to the camps.
Eisenhower (who was at the side of MacArthur) said MacArthur went too far.(Not the last time he disobeyed an order.)
MacArthur defended his actions:
Had he let it go on another week—-” I believe the institutions of our Government would have been severely threatened.”
FDR opposed giving the men the money, but after the event, he told an adviser that “this will elect me.”
Attacking the American Vets assured FDR election.
So, did the vets ever get their money? Yes. In June 1936, Harry Truman gave it to them. Almost $2 billion was handed out to 3 million WWI veterans.
Then in 1942, Congress passed the G.I Bill of Rights.. which, by giving vets education and loans to buy homes, built the middle class, whose consumption would power the postwar economy.
And now, Obama has been purchasing billions of hollow point bullets. .
Apparently, the U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security has ordered 750 million handgun, rifle, and shotgun rounds (in addition to the 450 million purchased earlier this year.(Add to this tanks and drones.)
Our police departments all over the country are being militarized.
Either they are expecting a full-fledged invasion, or more likely, a collapsed of the economy. Someday, the “promises” of pension rewards, welfare, and food stamps will run out.
And if you think that your government will NOT fire on its citizens,
Think again.
They did it once before.
And if that isn’t a reason to thank a vet today, I don’t know what is. Someday you might have to depend on that vet for your very survival, to protect you from Obama’s generals…who are at this very moment, training their troops.
The “Compassion” of Howard Gardner is Not Logical
Nobody Reads Email
Howard Gardner is the John H. and Elisabeth A. Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and Senior Director of Harvard Project Zero. In his book, Five Minds for the Future, he makes a case for all people to respect and honor each other:
“In the complex global terrain in which we now live, we should , whenever possible, give priority to respect for those with different backgrounds and beliefs–and hope that they will return the favor.”
It’s the liberal philosophy that permeates all the elite colleges. Right now, we are watching the leaders in Europe work out a deal with Iran, that they “hope” will work. Even after the mistake of giving North Korea Plutonian for ‘peaceful” development. (thanks Bill Clinton), John Kerry is just so excited.
The lone voice of reason is Netanyahu.
I guess Howard Gardner from Harvard, never got this email…like I did. According to those that live among the radical Muslims, there is little hope they will return the favor. Nobody hopes, some Muslims move next door to the professor, so he can find out how far his “hope” takes him.
(Thanks to J.R.)
“I’m 72 and I’m Tired”
I’m tired of being told that Islam is a “Religion of Peace,” when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family “honor”; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren’t “believers”; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for “adultery”; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur’an and Shari’a law tells them to.
I’m tired of being told that out of “tolerance for other cultures” we must let Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in Australia, New Zealand, UK, America and Canada, while no one from these countries are allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia or any other Arab country to teach love and tolerance..
I’m tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of all parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I’m tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.
I’m also tired and fed up with seeing young men and women in their teens and early 20’s be-deck themselves in tattoos and face studs, thereby making themselves unemployable and claiming money from the Government.
And I’m sick and tired of seeing young kids walking down the streets looking like idiots with their underwear showing.
Yes, I’m tired. But I’m also glad to be 72 because I’m not going to have to see the world these people are making.
Nobody Notes—If you can figure out what the heck Project Zero is, you are a genius. To me, it looks like an excuse to pour gobs of money down meaningless holes in order to make a bunch of professors very rich.
The Japanese—Do NOT Tolerate Islam
Nobody Gets Email
I was in my local drugstore the other day, and I was talking to the makeup sales lady who was telling me how rude the Muslim women are when they come in to buy makeup. In fact, they buy the makeup, use it, and return it the next day. This is a great expense to the store, because they say they “only used it once” and want their money back.
They don’t watch their children in the store, and the children will grab candy and eat it in the store, and the mothers will refuse to pay for the candy saying that they did not give the kids permission to eat it, therefore it’s not their problem.
We could all get along if Muslims were tolerant, but they aren’t. and so, I found this email very interesting….The Japanese won’t even deal with them…did you know that? I didn’t.
It’s actually pretty smart. Nevertheless, if you Google a bit, you will find a few pictures and proof that there are Muslims there…but not many. (Dandapani…Nobody remembers.)
(Thanks to J.R.)
*********************************
The Japanese focus on maintaining their own culture. Therefore . . . ..
* No political leader or a prime minister from an Islamic nation has visited Japan – not the Ayatollah of Iran, the King of Saudi Arabia or even a Saudi Prince!!
* Japan is a country keeping Islam at bay by putting strict restrictions on Islam and ALL Muslims.
1) Japan is the only nation that does not give citizenship to Muslims.
2) In Japan permanent residency is not given to Muslims.
3) There is a strong ban on the propagation of Islam in Japan.
4) In the University of Japan, Arabic or any Islamic language is not taught.
5) One cannot import a ‘Koran’ published in the Arabic language.
6) According to data published by the Japanese government, it has given temporary residency to only 2 Muslims, who must follow the Japanese Law of the Land. These Muslims should speak Japanese and carry their religious rituals in their homes.
7) Japan is the only country in the world that has a negligible number of embassies in Islamic countries.
8) Muslims residing in Japan are the employees of foreign companies
9) Even today, visas are not granted to Muslim doctors, engineers or managers sent by foreign companies.
10) In the majority of companies it is stated in their regulations that no Muslims should apply for a job.
11) The Japanese government is of the opinion that Muslims are fundamentalist, and even in the era of globalization they are not willing to change their Muslim laws.
12) Muslims cannot even rent a house in Japan.
13) If anyone comes to know that his neighbor is a Muslim then the whole neighborhood stays alert.
14) No one can start an Islamic cell or Arabic ‘Madrasa’ in Japan.
15) There is no Sharia law in Japan.
16) If a Japanese woman marries a Muslim, she is considered an outcast forever.
17) According to Mr. Kumiko Yagi, Professor of Arab/Islamic Studies at Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, ” There is a mind frame in Japan that Islam
” is a very narrow-minded religion and one should stay away from it.”
The Japanese might have lost the war, but they are in charge of their own country.
There are no bombs going off in crowded business centers, “Honor Killings”, nor killing of innocent children or anyone else.

The President Apologizes…Who Cares?
Nobody Cares
The President…has apologized—-
Not for being a liar, not for being a scum-bag and forcing his Obamacare rip-off on the American people, but somebody in his PR department said he should make an appearance.
So he did. He gave an interview in which he said this:
BARACK OBAMA: I am deeply frustrated about how this website has not worked over the first couple of weeks. And, I take responsibility of that. My team takes responsibility of that. (Notice—NOT him) And we are working every single day, 24/7, to improve it. (He is also thinking about how to get jobs for the middle class 24/7, on the golf course, at his Hollywood fundraisers, White House parties) And it’s better now than it was last week. It’s certainly a lot
better than IT WAS on October 1st. (yes, TEN people have now signed up—four more than last week.)Having said that, given that I’ve been burned already with a website–well, (Whoa…YOU”VE been burned? YOU, YOU have been burned? ) —more importantly the American people have been burned by a website that’s been dysfunctional, (Obama catches his big mistake of showing off his offensive narcissistic view of the world) –what we’ve also been doing is creating a whole other set of tracks, making sure that people can apply by phone effectively, making sure people can apply in person effectively.
Yes–call up your local government ACORN worker and let HIM get all your information and then rip you off.
Whether you think that Obama is a Christian, an Atheist, or some kind of Voodoo priest, one thing is sure: He has the Muslim attitude. Muslims believe that anyone who is not a Muslim is inferior to them, and they act accordingly with everyone they meet. They lie, cheat, bribe and steal. In all respect, Obama is a faithful Muslim.
Obama is sorry? Oh, that breaks your heart.
He could never be as sorry as we are.
Two Whistleblowers: Two Different Times
Nobody Remembers
“This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs.: When he first appears, he is a protector”–
—Plato, the Republic.
I was cleaning out some files this morning when I came upon this drawing. It was made by a young guitar player named Glenn Fink, in a hotel room, and if I remember correctly, we were in Omaha, Nebraska. I was a drummer on the road with a group, and I do remember Glenn played just about the best Jeff Beck around, so we were best buddies. While I was watching the Nixon interview Glenn kept laughing at me, because then, just as now, I get real intense when I hear a politician talk nonsense. So..he drew a quick sketch.
I had to laugh. I still have this same expression on my face whenever I’m watching Obama on TV.
The picture also brought me back to the question of how Nixon was brought down…it was really by one man: Daniel Ellsberg. Nixon was taken down by Watergate, and Watergate was all about Nixon’s ‘plumbers” looking for psychological dirt on Ellsberg because he had just leaked the Pentagon papers.
For those of you who are younger and don’t remember, basically the Pentagon papers revealed this:
From Wikipedia:
After serving in Vietnam, Ellsberg resumed working at RAND. In 1967, he contributed to a top-secret study of classified documents regarding the conduct of the Vietnam War that had been commissioned by Defense Secretary McNamara. These documents, completed in 1968, later became known collectively as the Pentagon Papers. It was because Ellsberg held an extremely high-level security clearance and desired to create a further synthesis from this research effort that he was one of very few individuals who had access to the complete set of documents.
In late 1969—with the assistance of his former RAND Corporation colleague Anthony Russo and the staff of Senator Edward Kennedy—Ellsberg secretly made several sets of photocopies of the classified documents to which he had access; these later became known as the Pentagon Papers. They revealed that the government had knowledge, early on, that the war could most likely not be won, and that continuing the war would lead to many times more casualties than was ever admitted publicly. Further, as an editor of the New York Times was to write much later, these documents “demonstrated, among other things, that the Johnson Administration had systematically lied, not only to the public but also to Congress, about a subject of transcendent national interest and significance”.
Yes, WE were being lied to…by three President no less. See…it’s not the first time is it?
Daniel Ellsberg became an overnight hero, but unlike Snowden, he didn’t leave the country.
On June 28, 1971, two days before a Supreme Court ruling saying that a federal judge had ruled incorrectly about the right of the New York Times to publish the Pentagon Papers, Ellsberg publicly surrendered to the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts in Boston. In admitting to giving the documents to the press, Ellsberg said:
“I felt that as an American citizen, as a responsible citizen, I could no longer cooperate in concealing this information from the American public. I did this clearly at my own jeopardy and I am prepared to answer to all the consequences of this decision.“
Now, fast forward to today–it’s much the same thing that Edward Snowden said, but Daniel Ellsberg had something Snowden did not have. At that time, the government couldn’t legally listen to your conversations, and Nixon was wiretapping him.
On May 9, further evidence of illegal wiretapping against Ellsberg was revealed in court. The FBI had recorded numerous conversations between Morton Halperin and Ellsberg without a court order, and furthermore the prosecution had failed to share this evidence with the defense. During the trial, Byrne (The judge in the case) also revealed that he personally met twice with John Ehrlichman, who offered him directorship of the FBI.
So, Daniel got off, Nixon quit, and many of his boys in the White House hood went to jail.
(Ahhhhhhhh, those were the good old days!)
Later on, Ellsberg claimed that Watergate Prosecutor William H. Merrill told him of an aborted plot by Liddy to kill him. In his autobiography, Liddy said it was an “Ellsberg neutralization proposal.” They were going to put LSD in his soup. And then, kill him, and let’s see…didn’t Obama just say he was REALLY good at killing people? So, in light of this knowledge, many said that Snowden should have stayed here and gone on trial. But, does anyone think, that Snowdon would have gotten a fair trial?
Nobody Thinks that Snowden would have just ‘disappeared” Remember, Obama has GIVEN himself the power to put anyone he deems a threat to the United States away forever, without a trial. While Daniel had a decent court system to protect him: Snowden does not.
I doubt seriously if China would have ‘protected’ him.
Putin, on the other hand, gained immensely from welcoming Snowden into Russia. Putin would protect Snowden–if only to rub it in Obama’s face that Russia, is superior…and that’s exactly what he did. Snowden is a bright shiny feather of an American pawn in Putin’s game.
And IF your FIRST plan is to stay alive—-let’s just say that Nobody Thinks I might have made the same choice as Snowdon with Obama as President, being as he did sign the National Security Authorization Act, giving himself the power of judge, jury and executioner. Nixon did NOT have that luxury.
Both these men, Ellsberg and Snowdon, in their time, have done the world a great service. It’s clear that both men, did what they did because of their own conscience and morality.
And Ellsburg recently, had more to say:
“Various things that were counted as unconstitutional then have been put in the president’s hands now. He’s become an elected monarch. Nixon’s slogan, “when the president does it, it’s not illegal,” is pretty much endorsed now. Meaning not only Obama but the people who come after him will have powers that no previous president had. Abilities on surveillance that no country in the history of the world has ever had.”
Hey, makes perfect sense to me. See the rest of his interview where he enlightens us about the Manning arrests here:
By the rights of our Constitution, we have a right to know what our government is doing, and let’s hope more whistleblowers come out…
Common Core, Obama’s new educational tool for America, is teaching our children that you must NEVER disobey the government.
Tyranny—-is just a whisper away, I’ll be listening for the whistlers.

It’s a Beautiful Day in My Neighborhood…
Nobody Wins–
—When your local town is filled with just as many crooks as Washington.
While we marvel at the lies in Washington, here in St. Louis, the local democrats are just as good at stealing money.
Right next door to me, is the city of Florissant, and the town’s representative, Steve Webb, just did his very best imitation of Jesse Jackson Jr.
CLAYTON, MO (KTVI) – Missouri State Representative Steve Webb of Florissant has been charged with violating laws for reporting and use of campaign money. He has been charged with a felony for stealing campaign funds and spending them on himself.
According to a St. Louis Post-Dispatch report he has received $28,916 worth of gifts from lobbyists. Nearly two-thirds of the value of those gifts came from utilities. He serves on the House Utilities Committee.
St. Louis County Police say that Webb asked for a political contribution of $3,000 from Community Loans of America. He told them that the donation would be used to sponsor a reception held by the Missouri Legislative Black Caucus in Washington, D.C. Webb then deposited the funds into a bank account he established with the name of Missouri Black Caucus. Then he transferred the funds into his personal bank account and used the funds for personal use.
I want to know what happened to all the money that we don’t know about.
And just to prove that the local democratic women can steal just as well as the men, we have another robber of money, She just got caught:
ST. LOUIS • A Florissant woman was indicted Wednesday on 24 counts of tax fraud.
Federal prosecutors in St. Louis say Evelyn Silas, 53, an employee with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in St. Louis, filed fraudulent tax returns in order to collect tax money for relatives, friends and herself from 2009 to 2011. Authorities say she filed phony business and individual returns resulting in losses of an estimated $90,000.
Silas often directed the IRS to send her family and friends’ tax refunds to her own bank account, the indictment says. Silas would then forward a portion of the refund to the taxpayer and keep some for herself.
(Bet you’ve had this happen in YOUR little town:)
And to prove to you, that it’s not only the black democrats that can steal, did I mention the local liberal judges like to do cocaine?
ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) – A former probation officer pleads guilty to supplying cocaine to judges in St. Clair County.
Federal agents say James Fogarty admitted he sold drugs to two St. Clair County Judges; Judge Michael Cook and deceased Judge Joe Christ. Christ died of a cocaine overdose.
Fogarty went straight to jail after pleading guilty and will be sentenced to 60 months in February. The Judge warned that he may cancel this deal if prosecutors find Fogarty’s cocaine killed Christ.
Wow. We have congressmen stealing money from the public till, a government worker who wanted her equal opportunity to steal from the public till, and judges dying from cocaine overdose.
And now the GOOD news:
ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI)– The St. Louis Airport Commission took a major step toward its latest attempt to become a major player in international cargo. The beginnings of a deal are in place with a Texas company to create a customs hub for goods going in and out of Mexico, which would literally and figuratively replace the ill-fated “China Hub” project.
If the judges weren’t dead from bad cocaine, they would have been in ecstasy to learn that soon, coming to St. Louis, will be the Mexicans cartels, who will no longer have to drive their trucks of cocaine through Texas. Just think—- James Fogarty wouldn’t have had to do jail time.
And if you live in Florissant and are not fortunate enough to have a government job , don’t worry. They will need help unloading all those planes.
And THIS is why I don’t go out of the house, unless I have to.
Death Countdown Watch
If You’re a Christian in Virginia…Don’t Call the Lt. Governor
Nobody Wonders
You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to see that Hillary Clinton is lining up her generals in Virginia, Terry McAuliffe and his pick for Lieutenant Governor, Dr. (I won’t shake your hand if you’re a Christian) Ralph Northan, both won in Virgin last night.
During an on-air debate, Ralph Northam, the McAuliffe-backed Democrat running for Lt. Gov. in Virginia, refused to shake hands with E. W. Jackson, his GOP opponent, who happens to be a black minister. Democratic Virginia lieutenant gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam on Friday stressed during an interview with the Washington Blade that he feels ending anti-LGBT discrimination in the commonwealth is good for the state’s economy.
(The state economy? That’s stretching it a bit too far don’t you think?) Is that going to be the democratic platform: The economy is bad because people just hate women, blacks, AND gays?
Of course, they had loads of help from Karl Rove and the Republican Party, who want to back Chris Christie in 2016, because they know he will lose to Hillary. This will force the true conservatives to run on a third party ticket (which they are hoping for) and therefore when Hillary wins, they can blame it on the tea party.
Nobody has always Wondered why the Bushes and the Clinton’s have always been so close.
It’s all about the global. Remember, Jeb Bush just gave Hillary an award.
In the meantime, a democrat can refuse to shake the hand of a black man, and still win, on points that the black man is conservative. If a white Republican refused to shake the hand of a black Democratic opponent, we would never hear the end of it.
Nobody Wonders if that race in Virginia’ didn’t come down to who had the most money and who played the dirtiest?
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
