Nobody Remembers the Cuban Missile Crisis
Nobody Remembers
Russia. We are told she is no longer a threat to us. She is no longer a super power we are told, and yet, Putin is bringing back the cold war, and he did it this week by putting a ‘spy’ ship in Cuba. And so those of us who DO remember this famous speech, also remember that on 9/11 a few dozen men brought the great United States to its knees…proving that Russia doesn’t HAVE to be a superpower…all Russia needs to do is get one EMP over the middle of the United States and we are toast.
Just one. Not a hard thing for many, and certainly not Russia.
When I listen to Kennedy, I can’t help but compare Kennedy with Obama…and realize the vast difference in intelligence. Kennedy at least acted like an American President. Obama acts like a political version of Will Smith. Not only has Obama put America back to the sixties in terms of racial relations, he has put America once again on a path where we will start living in fear because he sells weapons to our enemies, and attacks what few allies we have left.
Putin has finished his successful Olympics (Where Russians were top gold winners) and now he sends 150,000 troops to take back the Ukraine. Who’s going to stop him? Mr. Swift Boat John Kerry?
Last night I heard a general say on the radio that we will be down to just 100,000 troops that will be capable of firing bullets.
So, on that note, listen again to President John F. Kennedy, if not his finest hour, at least, unlike Obama, he made a bold attempt to control the situation…and it worked. If Obama had been President, I’m sure Youtube would not have been invented.
Nobody’s Fool: Jonathan Turley
Nobody’s Fool
This week, we have a more than welcomed surprise…a Constitutional expert who warned Congress about the danger our Constitution is in, and how the President holds too much power. Jonathan Turley agrees with many things that Obama wants to do, but now how he is going about doing it.
“The fact that I happen to think the president is right on many of these policies does not alter the fact that I believe the means he is doing [it] is wrong, and that this can be a dangerous change in our system,” he said. “And our system is changing in a very fundamental way. And it’s changing without a whimper of regret or opposition.”
This coming from a professor out of Georgetown, University? Amazing in itself.
So, Congratulations Mr. Turley! You win the Nobody’s Fool award for the week.
Now, was Congress listening?
The Transient Life of the Rich and Famous—And Why It’s So Easy to Throw Us All Away…
Nobody Wins
I really dislike the man….Alvin Toffler. Wait…I hate him. There… I said it. Joe Biden take that.
Yes, when it comes to social engineers, I think they should all be tried for treason. They are usually university professors who sit on ivy league Harvard and Yale think tanks, and groom future politicians on how to control the vast human masses, and its because of them that politicians come up with such ridiculous ideas…like the War on Poverty.
(Yes! Let’s build the blacks HUD housing and put them in the city all in one spot! GREAT idea! )
Saul Alinsky was a social engineer…and he did a fine job with Hillary and Obama. Personally, I don’t think we talk enough about these guru’s. For instance, Woodrow Wilson came up with the idea of a United Nations…and he got his ideas out of running a university. Luckily that Congress voted it down.
But…this Congress would gladly hand over our sovereignty—-and they are working on that night and day like little chipmonks chewing on a really juicy twig.
Nevertheless, despite my feelings for the man, But…I have to admit, Alvin has a point when it comes to all of us suffering from “Future Shock” …his book which was first published in 1970—the world we live in now, is build on a throw-away society.
It’s not just our paper bags that go out with the trash, it’s now our whole moral system and Constitution.
The progressives are tired of it.
Michio Kaku was talking about this throw- away society last night on Coast to Coast. When Bill Gates helped put a computer on every desk, he sold the idea that it was going to save paper, and yet, more paper was used than ever before: The picture that comes to my mind is the thousands of sheets of paper falling out of the sky on 9/11.
And that was just the paper that DIDN’T burn…imagine. .
Did Bill Gates expect that? Who knows? With each new I Phone and I Tablet we get so much old computer junk to fill up land holes, (what isn’t sold to China) because every product now has an expiration date. In fact, if you do not make that invention with a short shelf life, you are not going to get ANY buyers.
I found that out with my little product. I spend hours on the phone arguing with Presidents of companies because I wanted my product to be collected, not thrown away.
I was in the wrong century. Not once did I win that argument.
Alvin goes on to point out that our relationships are no longer long-term either. Everyone..every relationship, can be throw away.
“The average urban individual today probably comes into contact with more people in a week than the feudal villager did in a year, or a lifetime.”
Which brings me to my point about the rich elites and why they are so…out of touch with the humanity around them. The rich elites who run our governments of the world, with the corporate CEO’s, have no permanence in their lives. They meet so many, many people and travel all over the world, ;and so, the only thing that lasts to them is money. (and power)
They are so removed from real life that psychologically they have transported themselves to another world, where there IS no allegiance to country, or people, or even building a future for those people.
Remember—-Obama, who from early childhood, has bounced around from one adult to another, was a transience himself, and can easily disregards all emotional ties to any permanence or people. He’s used to it. Look how he treated his mother when she was dying. 
If a rich man’s dream destroys millions, it just doesn’t register. If a King of a country builds a mansion for himself at the expense of his people, he just doesn’t care. He HAS no allegiance whatsoever to that country.
He is…on his own—living for his own day to day pleasure. That’s his transience world.
And that’s Obama.
It may seem a bit simple, and certainly there is much more to why someone is drawn to a ‘progressives” outlook on the world, but that’s exactly how they see themselves.
‘Progressives”
They live, in the here and now. They’re here and now, and that serviceman who Obama alludes when he gets off his helicopter could just as well be a potted plant. He feels no emotion whatsoever for the millions losing health care, or dying from lack of care, or the four dead in Benghazi…psychologically speaking, it’s just not in his makeup to care. He has no relationship with people at all.
Psychologists would call Obama a sociopath…but in the social engineering world, Obama is simply part of our new found and wonderful transient world.
Alvin is right about the throw away culture…many of us are in shock daily—-but that doesn’t mean I still can’t hate him.
Trust me…that’s another blog I might have to keep myself from writing…being as hate is now becoming a crime.
Nobody Knows: Gays, Immigrants, Holder, Pizza…
Nobody Knows
Nobody Knows if Obama and John Boehner solved how to pass amnesty this morning at the White House, but what Alex Sink, a democrat running to represent Florida, showed in her almost blatantly funny statement, is that most democrats are just worried about WHO is going to landscape their mansions. It’s a concern.
“We need to bring these people out of the shadows so that they’re paying into social security, paying into Medicare, they’re paying federal income taxes,” she said. “So they’re not security issues, but they have to earn their way, but we need immigration reform.”
Nobody Knows, but nobody can guess that if the immigrants stopped coming, Americans would be doing those jobs…and wages would, just by free market demand, have to go up. And that’s what the big companies don’t want now do they?
Nobody Knows, but– we are finding out, Obamacare demands that all calories of food must now be listed by restaurants. So, is Obama going to excuse all the pizza delivery places from spending the money and listing the calories on their pizza boxes until AFTER the 2014 elections to save his butt? No doubt, he will. And nobody knows if listing calories is going to keep anybody from getting extra cheese.
Nobody Knows that the Supreme Court has ruled that the police can gather DNA from anyone whenever they want. And nobody is pretty certain they already have most everyone’s. Anyone born in America has their blood taken right after birth, illegal or not.
Nobody Knows why Chuck Hagel, our Secretary of Defense, is taking our military back to pre-WWII levels when he says we are in more danger now than we have ever been.
Oh, that makes sense.
Hagel stressed that such changes entail risk. He said—
“We are entering an era where American dominance on the seas, in the skies and in space can no longer be taken for granted.”
So therefore, we can’t win, so we should just retreat. Nobody Knows why the democrats hate the military, but they do. Bill Clinton did such a fine job of downsizing our military it took George W. Bush almost 9 months to build it back up enough to attack Iraq. Going to the U.N. was just a stall. (That’s my opinion)
And while the veterans get small pay raises, Congress and their government lackeys ALWAYS get a raise.
Nobody Knows where Hagel is going to ‘store’ all our unused military hardware, sell it to China?
Nobody Knows just when Russell Crowe is going to find out…he’s not really Noah. 
Nobody Knows that I actually heard reported today on the radio that “hate groups’ have gone down in the last year. ‘Hate groups” being those white conservative radicals who were all in a hussy about Obama trying to take their guns away. Right. You cannot not hate anyone who tries to deprive you of your rights.
Nobody Knows when anyone who hates anything, will be arrested. (First they came for the Jews…and I said nothing….)
Nobody Knows how Eric Holder can tell the state attorney generals to just ignore the laws in their state and go ahead and sanction gay marriage and rights, and then have the audacity to say our founders had gays in mind when they wrote our founding documents.
Nobody Knows how John McCain got to be a Senator from Arizona. Somebody enlightened me.
Nobody Knows why some people are night people and some people are day people, a subject that I can’t seem to find an answer to. SCN?
And Nobody Knows why the heck we are talking about “gay rights” all day long and into the sunset when America has MUCH bigger problems…like a Marxist President who is completely gone off the rails and plans to destroy the country beyond all recognition. Tell me, what’s more important than that?
Nobody knows how Congress became so corrupted that nobody will impeach him.
And Nobody knows that unlike Jane Fonda, I noticed butterflies, polar bears, kittens, pregnant women, baby elephants and all the beauty all around this planet when I was about…four.
What took her so long?
Nobody Remembers Elihu Root and the ‘Invisible Government’
Nobody Remembers
Elihu Root was the Secretary of War (1899-1903) under McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt and Secretary of State(1905-1909) under Roosevelt. After that he became a Senator from New York (1909-15) and received the Nobel Peace Prize. At the Constitutional Convention of the State of New York, on August 30, 1915, he had a lot to say about the evils of the “invisible government” that he said had run New York for many years. He said that the government was not elected but was responsible only to the party boss in control of the state. He wanted to change the system that he viewed as corrupt.
Here’s a few excerpts from his speech:
What is the government of this state? What has it been doing during the forty years of my acquaintance with it? The government of the constitution? Oh, no: not half the time or halfway. For I don’t remember how many years, Mr. Conkling was the supreme ruler in the state: the governor did not count, the legislature did not count, comptroller’s and secretaries of state and whatnot did not count. It was what Mr. Conkling said, and in a great outburst of public rage he was pulled down.
Then Mr. Platt ruled the state: for nigh twenty years.
The party leader is elected by no one, accountable to no one, bound by no oath of office, removable by no one. I don’t criticize the men of the invisible government. How can I? I have known them all, and among them have been some of my dearest friends. But it is all wrong. It is all wrong that a government not authorized by the people should be continued superior to the government that is authorized by the people.
How it is accomplished? Mr. Chairmen it is done by patronage. The elected officer or the appointed officer, who is to be held responsible for the administration of his office desired to get men into the different positions of his office who will do the work in a way that is creditable to him and his administration. Whether it be a president appointing a judge, or a governor appointing a superintendent of public works, whatever it may be.
How is it about the boss? He has to urge the appointment of men whose appointment will consolidate his power and preserve the organization. The invisible government proceeds to build up and maintain it power by a reversal of the fundamental principle of good government, which is that men should be selected to perform the duties of the office,
The true one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to the service that can be given to the public. The other the false one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to what can be gotten out of it. A great number of men are put on the payrolls as a matter of patronage not of service, but of party patronage.
(Can you say Ambassador to Norway?)
Both parties are alike, all parties are alike. The system extends thorough all.
At the end of his speech this:
I have been told forty times since this Convention met that you cannot change it. We can try, can’t we? I deny that we cannot change it. I repel that cynical assumption which is born of the lethargy that comes from poisoned air during all these years. I assert that this perversion of democracy, this robbing democracy of its virility can be changed.
We can take this one step toward, not robbing the people of their part in government but toward robbing an irresponsible autocracy of its indefensible and unjust and undemocratic control of government, and return it to the people to be exercised by the men of their choice and their control. We cannot change it in a moment but we can do our share.
When I read it, I thought of the Bushes, the Clinton’s, Reid and Boehner…because as I have said, it’s the leaders of both houses that control everything. And the best man at stacking the deck against the common man with his invisible government is our current ‘President’, Barack Obama.
And here, way back in 1915, Elihu Root, wanted to do something to break the monopoly of the ‘invisible government.”
Nobody Thinks Mr. Root was right, and yet…things remain the same these 99 years later.
Nobody’s Fool: Woman in Ukraine
Nobody’s Fool
Just last week, Justice Scalia reminded Americans that if they thought that America would never see the day, when our own government would gather people up and put them in FEMA camps–that day would never come. We should think again…it could happen.
The very fact that Obama is staffing every government department with bullets should make us think, what are THEY expecting?
This women, who has no name, has spoken the best way she can…to tell the world, this is about freedom.
So, she wins the Nobody’s Fool award…because there, but for the grace of god, go we.
Think it couldn’t happen here? A Supreme Court Justice, begs to differ, and so do I.
President’s Day: It’s all about the money…
Nobody Flashes
Today is President’s Day, and what does it mean to most American?
First: No Trash pickup
Second: No mail
Third: All government workers get a day off, which is half the working people in the United States.
While the original intention was to honor George Washington’s Birthday, leave it to politicians to change things they don’t like….and in this case we now celebrate President’s Day in order to give a day off to workers…they just expanded the holidays:
This from History:
The shift from Washington’s Birthday to Presidents’ Day began in the late 1960s when Congress proposed a measure known as the Uniform Monday Holiday Act. Championed by Senator Robert McClory of Illinois, this law sought to shift the celebration of several federal holidays from specific dates to a series of predetermined Mondays. The proposed change was seen by many as a novel way to create more three-day weekends for the nation’s workers, and it was believed that ensuring holidays always fell on the same weekday would reduce employee absenteeism. While some argued that shifting holidays from their original dates would cheapen their meaning, the bill also had widespread support from both the private sector and labor unions and was seen as a surefire way to bolster retail sales.
So…LOL…it’s still the old line…GO SHOPPING!
Later on, Presidents decided (Richard Nixon) that ALL presidents should be honored on Presidents Day, due mainly to ego…what else?
And in case you haven’t noticed, this last week, there was a report put out on the richest and poorest Presidents. George Washington was said to have (by today’s standards) $525 million…making him look like one of those RICH elites: While Woodrow Wilson, the father of the ‘progressives’ was poor. Nowhere in this historical reporting were the Bushes, Clinton’s, or Obama’s.
God forbid anyone think THEY have money.
So, this Nobody plans to celebrate on George’s ACTUAL birthday, this Saturday…the 22nd. I plan to go buy a lottery ticket.
And take out the trash.
Nobody Reads Liberty and Tyranny
Nobody Reads
Every night, while I’m trying to figure out the next day’s blog, I have Mark Levin on the radio. I remember when he used to call up Sean Hannity and give his two cents…long before he had his own show and now is one of the top conservative voices in America.
In his book, Liberty and Tyranny, he attacks those whom Glenn Beck calls ‘progressives’. Mark calls them Statists. The rest of us just call them crooks. It’s a quick read, and although, if you read a lot, you won’t find anything surprising, but good, solid, common sense conservative ideas repeated again, in a very legal sense.
What IS worth noting is his conservative Manifesto at the back. Here’s a few of his ideas:
Eliminate the progressive income tax, replace it with a flat tax or national sales tax.
Eliminate the automatic withholding of taxes. Eliminate the corporate tax. Eliminate the death tax.
Limit federal spending each year to less than 29 percent of the gross domestic product.
Eliminate lifetime tenure for federal judges.
Eliminate monopoly control of government education.
Eliminate the federal Department of Education.
End multiculturalism, diversity and bilingualism in public institutions.
These are just a few…that all conservatives would LOVE to see happen: Trouble is, the last time the Republicans held all three branches, they kept on the ‘progressive’ and statist path, and in 2016, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, Marko Rubio, and Paul Ryan, would all do the same, no matter what they say. I REMEMBER George W. Bush’s campaigning. He sounded just like Mark Levine. It’s all about the global corporations and the money in Washington. Unless we get non-progressive/statists in office, things will remain the same.
Rand Paul is trying to reform the Republican party from within. But…realistically, that’s not going to happen any time soon….and Rand Paul, says that a third party doesn’t have a chance.
He should know, he is the son of Ron Paul, who tried.
Still…It’s good for us to have these voices giving us hope everyday…but in the meantime..while Mark Levine’s can tell us HOW things should be, none of us see that happening short of revolution. Which is why this Nobody Thinks Obama is stocking up on bullets and training men in his $63 million dollar fake American city built in Virginia.
The NSA is telling them just how mad the people really are.
Anyway, Mark is a great American…the book is worth the read. Besides, let’s not forget that he was part of Reagan’s cabinet, and he quotes one of Reagan’s most famous lines at the end of his book:
“Freedom is never more than on generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Obamacare has now, truly enslaved us, and I agree with Mark:
“We Conservatives need to get busy.”
Nobody Remembers Yoachum’s Silver
Nobody Remembers
Once upon a time, before Branson Missouri became the wholesome man’s Las Vegas, when Indians were still living the high life in Missouri, “and the livin was eeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaasssssssssyyy.”..wait.
Somehow I got in Porgy’s And Bess ‘s story…sorry.
It was 1541, and the Spanish had gotten tired of plundering Aztec for gold, and decided to look for the gold and silver in the Ozark mountains. And they found a good spot near Table Rock Lake, now know as Silver Dollar City to entertainers who have made a fortune off of Duck Dynasty’s second cousins, and roller coasters enthusiasts.
Looking around old Indian passage ways, the Spanish found a shelter cave with a good rein of silver ore. The plan was to put the silver in ingots, transport it to the Mississippi River, send it down to the Gulf of Mexico and off to Spain.
And so, they captured local Indians, and made them into slave labor to dig that silver out, and didn’t treat them very well . WHY nobody complains about the cruelty of Spanish slave masters on CNN I’m not sure, except to say, the Indians own Casinos and blacks do not, and if I were black I would blame Jesse Jackson.
(sorry, stick to the story Joyanna)
Needless to say, when the Spanish guys went out hunting, everybody noticed that they didn’t come back, and one morning the Choctaw having had enough, massacre the whole lot of them, although a few escaped.
The silver mine was forgotten for more than two and a half centuries, because the Choctaws didn’t want to mine another single ingot. They had better things to do.
Then, one day, in the middle of a thunderstorm, some Choctaws went to seek shelter, found all these silver ingots, and although they could have cared less about silver, they knew that trading them to the white men for horses and weapons…useful things, might come in handily. So they did.
Valentine’s Day had not been invented yet.
Then one day, some Mexicans came looking for the cave. It seems they had found out about it from an old map given to them by the Spanish guys who had escaped the first massacre. So the Indians decided that cave needed to be sealed. They didn’t want a Mexican invasion either.
The country moved on…and after the war of 1812, our government decided that he Delaware Indians needed to be re-located to the Ozarks, something I’m sure all Delaware people would like to do to any remaining tea party people in their state. . All KINDS of Indians ended up in the Ozarks from all over: Shawnee, Seneca, and Pottawatomie…getting kicked out of their lands.
But hey, Missouri wasn’t so bad.
And then, along came the Yoachum family.
Short history: James Yoachum and his brother Solomon were from Illinois. When James was 18, he abandoned his pregnant wife, and decided to make his fortune trapping furs in the Ozarks. He came back only to find his wife had died in childbirth, so he moved his new son, and his brother and the family to the Ozarks. And though his excuse was that he hated farming, the REAL truth was….
Another woman.
Yes, James married a Delaware Indian woman. Which was a good deal as you will find out.
James was smart. He was always good to the Delaware Indians, gave the horses and food…and they lived in peace together, and then the government came in and told the Delaware Indians they would have to move AGAIN.
No, Obama was not alive yet. It was the Delaware Affordable Move Act.
James was really upset at the government for moving his friends, and so he gave them blankets, food and horse for their journey, and THEY in turn, told him where the silver mine was. But he must promise to never tell anyone where it was. EVER.
And so James got the Silver mine. And whenever they needed to trade, they just went and got a few silver rocks, and they had enough. Everybody was happy, happy, happy.
UNTIL—the government stepped in again. They thought up another LAW. If anybody wanted to buy stuff at the trading post, they had to use American coins. No longer could they trade in furs, or silver, or anything. So, even though the Yoachums had plenty of silver, they had no money. To the government, they were dirt poor.
So..what would YOU do? James just started making his own silver coins, and why not? It had Yoachum on the front and 1822 on the back: United States of America/ One Dollar.
James Yoachum
The Yoachum silver dollar started being used all over the Ozarks, and everyone accepted them BECAUSE it had more pure silver in it than the real American currency.
Oh boy.
Then….THE GOVERNMENT— like the hungry beast that it is, decided that everyone needed to claim their land.They sent a surveying crew to draw out property lines and told everyone that they had to pay a filing fee. And yes, most everyone had Yoachum silver dollar, which of course, the government said was no good. And unless they paid in Government money, they would all lose title to their land.
That agent was run out of town by gunpoint. So, he wrote Washington, sent one of Yoachum’s silver coins, …and Washington saw… that there was silver in” them thar hills”, and wanted that mine.
So one agent went to James’ farm and wanted to know where the mine was. James, like any sensible person who knew he had a second amendment right, took out his gun and ran him off. .
But that agene came back, with eight other armed agents, and so James had to give up. But he refused to tell them where the mine was. Nevertheless James promised to NEVER make another coin again, and he died and the secret entrance to the silver mine filled with silver ingot is still somewhere lying in a cave, just waiting to be found.
Hey, spring is just around the corner, feel like a trip to Six Flags?
By all accounts, this is a true story. (LOL! Unless of course you visit snopes, where Soros has already mined the cave.)
I don’t know what you got out of this story, but I got out of it that I should BURY all my silver coins and never tell the government where it is, if they should ask.
But promise, that I will never make a single coin, because I’m a true American Patriot, and you have to SHOW ME you’re worthy to be my government because I’m from Missouri.
And IF I want to trade my old fur hat— I will.
(Story retold from Troy Taylor’s book, “Out Past the Campfire Light”
Nobody Wonders—A LOT.
Nobody Wonders
—How they can turn characters like Noah from the Bible, into a liberal propaganda movie about too many people being on the earth. I suppose that will be the excuse given from God. God WAS a liberal who decided to kill all those pesky people with a flood.
—How Obama can dictate laws by which the businesses of the country must obey, or be forced to pay fines or go to jail.
___How, because he rules by his pen, we cannot call factually call him a fascist dictator.
—How they can keep claiming that America is in recovery when a third of its people are out of work.
—-How Obama can give raises to contractors with the stroke of his pen.
—-How the stock market can keep making billions for the rich, while the rest of the country’s economy slowly dies.
—How a Republican can be elected Mayor of San Diago, despite the unions and Obama’s democratic machine working overtime in a district where 63 percent of the votes went to Obama, and the press ignore it, and what this means for Marco Rubio
___How the Obama can give the most expensive state dinner…with the finest and most expensive food and decor, and then lecture us on the rich and poor, and expect everyone to think HE deserves to waste our money on himself.
—How Obama can delay his horrible Obama mandates on businesses until after all elections, just because everyone is finding out how much he lied–and let the little people suffer, even though he claims to be against ‘the rich’. If he is against the rich, stop giving them breaks.
—How Obama can punish anyone in buseinsses who fires someone because of the expense of Obamcare, thereby depriving everyone of free speech for fear of a tax penalty.
—How almost all of Congress remains silent, on anything he does, including giving himself more money each and every year, simply because he CAN due to the color of his skin.
—Why we have to feel sorry for the children of immigrants who did not commit the crime of their parents, but not for the white people whose ancestors committed the crimes of slavery.
—and WHY my ancestors, who were the ONLY founders who had no slaves ON PRINCIPLE, were not given a monument in Washington D.C.
Wow…I’m in a bad mood..
Nobody Remembers Why We Are Fat
Nobody Remembers
When I was a kid, nobody was ‘obese.’ Every kid I knew was perfect. Normal. Leave it to Beaver size.
Once a week, my parents drove my brother and I to dancing lessons….110 miles one way across the Tamiami Trail to Miami from Naples. My mother wanted us to be the next Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers–what she got was The Lone Ranger and Tonto. (Another blog)
You would THINK at five, that the highlight of my trip would have been the fabulous underground millionaire shops at the Fountain Blue Hotel where we took our lessons..where movie stars would walk by and hope to be noticed. Or the underground window at the bar, where you could see the swimmers legs dangling under the pool. (Dad loved to stand by that one) Or the excitement of looking for alligators crossing the road. 
Nope.
The highlight of those Saturdays was…WHITE CASTLE. What my brother and I would do for lunch at White Castle. My parents would say, “Hey! So what if it’s a long drive, and you would rather stay home and play with your friends…we’ll go to White Castle!”
You think kids want to sit in a car for two hours, just to be taught how to do the cha-cha by some Cuban guy who couldn’t speak English? Heck no. It was promise of those White Castle smothered in ketchup that made us both into perfect little angels.
I’ve been a burger girl ever since.
Back then, there were not the hundreds of fast food franchises there are today, so is it any wonder that America is on the fat side? I think one of the reasons that America gets fatter by the minute, is because every single town in America has the food strip….you know: Fast Food Heaven Lane. EVERY single town across America is one big glutton street. America really manufactures— Franchisees. Taco Bell, Jack in the Box, McDonald’s, KFC…Pizza Hut, etc….
But….according to National Geographic, we can’t blame our fatness on fast food, no…we can blame it on:
THE MONKEY
Yes….that lovable NOT fat ancestor of ours, is the reason we are fat.
Once upon a time, 22 million years ago, the monkeys lazed around in the African rain forest, living on fruit which they ate year round. And then, about 5 million years later, seas receded and ice caps expanded. So, the curious monkeys went over a bridge to some different rain forests.
In other words, like the 49er’s looking for gold in the California desert, they got lost. And it kept getting colder. They couldn’t find fruit any longer, and the trees started losing their leaves.
(I hate when that happens.)
Anyway, the woods started filling up with lots of starving apes. So what happened? According to a scientist named Johnson, a mutation happened. Ape mutated some genes and became a wildly efficient processor of fructose. Even small amounts of sugar were stored as fat, in order to survive months when winter came upon the land and food was scarce.
And then the monkeys moved BACK to Africa and kept that mutative fat storage survival gene and passed it down to us, who according to the scientists— we been struggling with ever since.
That’s why, IF I go and eat the Blue Bunny Cherry Chocolate Ice Cream in my fridge, right now, I will have stored fat for the next two years.
And since sugar stimulates the same pleasure centers of the brain that respond to heroin and cocaine you CAN become addictive to it, and IF you become addicted to let’s say…doughnuts, you can rest assured that your body will store that sugar as fat, and you can blame that on the monkey.
Or if you prefer: the ice age that Al Gore missed.
And in case you haven’t noticed, we ARE coming into another ice age. This could present another problem.
The monkeys might have to go exploring again, and not be able to find fruit, AGAIN, and their genes will mutate…AGAIN…and future humans will be so big, they won’t be able to walk.
They will have to outlaw sugar. (Wait…they did that in New York.)
Instead of all these geneticists trying to design the perfect human baby, maybe they should be working on a gene mutations that takes sugar and turns it into muscle instead. What good is a smart baby if it craves sugar? Huh? Think about that.
And MAYBE the real reason scientists are studying all these monkeys, is because they are waiting for the monkeys to mutate into humans.
Frankly, I am too. I want them to start talking so that we can ask them why they are not fat?
There’s more than one missing link in the scientific liberal basket.
I’m not sure just what to do with this information but, now that I think about it, I’m going to go have a few scoops of chocolate cherry ice cream, and then maybe…White Castle for lunch tomorrow.
I learned my lesson from National Geographic: Don’t Starve–your ancestors will never forgive you.
It’s the least we can do for ‘evolution.’ Go ahead—have one more….
Nobody Remembers Obama’s Stance on Russia
Nobody Remembers
—–HALF of the stuff that Obama does, that doesn’t get reported in the media, especially his relationship with Russia—
For instance:
From Obama’s America by Dinesh D’Souza (Now being persecuted by Eric Holder)
In 2009 when Obama took office, the US had approximately 5,000 nuclear warheads in its arsenal. Obama resolutely set about slashing that number. In 2011, Obama negotiated an arms reduction treaty with Russia, the so-called START treaty, in which both countries agreed to reduce their warhead count to 1,5550. America and Russian also limited their launchers to 700. In convincing the US Senate to support the treaty, Obama promises to modernize America’s existing nuclear assets a promise he subsequently abandoned. Some of the provision of the treaty were downright odd: the limit on 700 launchers imposed not restrictions o Russia, since Russian already had fewer than 7000 launchers. Once START was ratified and became law. He has asked the Pentagon to study reducing America’s nuclear deterrent by up to 80 percent, which would bring us down to around 300 strategic warheads. All of this is occurring at a time when other nuclear armed nations like China are expanding and modernizing their arsenals. Never before in history has a global superpower disarmed itself so rapidly and so thoroughly.
And Nobody Remembers that back in 2013, he did Russia another favor….I got this from a concerned reader—-
Barack Obama is going to spend almost $700 million dollars of taxpayer money to buy Russian helicopters for the Afghan Air Force. When Congress passed the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act, it had an interesting provision. Congress included, as a part of that law a prohibition on the United States buying helicopters from Rosoboronexport, the Russian manufacturer of the Mi-17 helicopter. Unfortunately as always happens, when such laws are passed, Congress always gives the Regime an escape hatch. The law stated that Obama could buy from Rosoboronexport if the Secretary of Defense certified it was in the interest of National Security. And of course, the Secretary of Defense, Chuck Hagel , a man committed to destroying the US military immediately signed off on that certification. Or consider this. The United States Air Force is grounding 17 squadrons because of $591 million dollars in budget cuts. Our Air Force is not able to do its mission because it lacks the money to fly but we have the money to give Afghanistan $700 million dollars in Russian helicopters.
So…clearly, Putin knows Obama is weak…and WHY are we worrying about Iran when China and Russia are doing nuclear war scenarios against us together?
How does our great leader stand up to Putin?
He sends an all-gay diplomatic team to the Olympics to represent the United States
That ought to show em!
Mayor Nagin: Mayor Reed—Emergency Experts
Nobody Wins
The city of Atlanta was hit with a major ice storm yesterday, hundreds of people were stranded on highways and schools for more than 23 hours… and it’s no surprise that the Democratic mayor–did nothing.
The result was gridlock on freeways that are jammed even on normal days. Countless vehicles were stranded and many of them abandoned. Officials said 239 children spent Tuesday night aboard school buses; thousands of others stayed overnight in their schools.
One woman’s 12-mile commute home took 16 hours. Another woman gave birth while stuck in traffic; police arrived just in time to help. Drivers who gave up trying to get home took shelter at fire stations, churches and grocery stores.
CNN did a good job drilling Mayor Reed on WHY he did nothing, but notice how good he is at passing the blame: It was the teacher’s fault. This morning–they were blaming the weatherman–because George Bush wasn’t around. Yes, it’s got to be rough when your President is a democrat and you are the mayor of a big city, and you can’t blame the President when you &$% up and your own citizens are mad at you.
But…guess what? Remember when the Mayor of New Orleans blamed President George W. Bush for Katrina?
Ray Nagin rose to American political fame in swift, albeit uncensored, fashion — as the New Orleans mayor who publicly trashed and pleaded with President George W. Bush to save his city in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. “Flying over in Air Force One doesn’t do it justice,” Nagin said during a radio interview a few days after the storm hit on Aug. 29, 2005.
Then the photo came out, of George flying over New Orleans and not even landing. Why, he should have sent in the 45th battalion! They never got over it, and to this day, President George W. Bush is blamed for the misery suffered after Katrina. But…it wasn’t his fault. He was actually following the law. By our Constitution, if you have a disaster in your city, it’s the Mayor and the Governor of that state that are responsible to handle it. The Federal government can only come in when ASKED. And nobody asked the President for DAYS.
Nobody Thinks that was because Nagin really messed up big time…the democrats manipulated it so that the President would be blamed, instead of the mayor.
When does a democrat NOT blame a republican for something that they do?
Wal-Mart came to the rescue when Mayor Nagin was sitting around bitching about everything. But that’s democrats. Nagin was such a crook. He is just now being persecuted for what he did during the time of Katrina. (READ ABOUT THAT HERE)
President George W. Bush did right by not landing…he really was thinking of the people. The whole apparatus of Air Force One would have been a headache at the time when people didn’t need one. Nevertheless…that didn’t stop Obama from landing In New Jersey and getting his photo-op with Chris Christie while he made all kinds of promises those suffering people after Hurricane Sandy—-
Which of course, were all lies.
The CNN reporter is right: It was the mayor’s fault. He should have salted those roads. Atlanta is not doing too good financially, and if Kasim is anything like Nagin, who knows what corruption he is in? As for the democratic governor, Nathan Deal?
Around the time the traffic jam started, Deal and Reed were at an award ceremony recognizing the mayor as the “2014 Georgian of the Year.” Deal spokesman Brian Robinson said the governor left before 1:30 p.m. and was in constant contact with emergency officials.
Nevertheless: It’s already been suggested that the small communities cannot handle things at all. All power should just be put in the hands of the President. I actually heard that on CNN. They can’t blame George Bush, so they are going to do the next best thing: Take all power away from the states and put that power in the hands of Obama.
Nobody Wins when democrats run the country.
So whatever happened to Nagin? He’s going to court:
The indictment states Nagin accepted more than $160,000 in bribes and truckloads of free granite for his family business in exchange for promoting the interests of businessman Frank Fradella — who secured millions of dollars in city contract work after the hurricane. The hurricane and its aftermath killed roughly 1,800 people and cost an estimated $108 billion.
Nagin moved to Dallas after leaving office and founded CRN Initiatives LLC, which specializes in publishing, public speaking and emergency preparedness.
You cannot make this stuff up.
Nobody Knows The State of the Cory Union
Nobody Knows
Cory Remsburg is a true American hero. Ten tours in Afghanistan and then— brain damage by a terrorist. Minutes before Obama started talking about him at the end of his State of the Union speech tonight, the first lady was smiling and gently touching him proudly, as if he were a very dear friend of hers. It was the end of Obama’s speech, and Obama choose, to have the whole Congress turn, and applaud this poor man, who had suffered such a terribly injury.
And then Obama saluted him. Every military man in the United States probably felt just like I did at the moment….and they probably took out their anger on some video games, no doubt.
I just got sick to my stomach.
Michelle was smiling, and holding Cory arm—caressing the hero who stood next to her all night. I could feel the metaphor coming deep in my gut:
Obama’s said:
My fellow Americans, men and women like Cory remind us that America has never come easy. Our freedom, our democracy, has never been easy. Sometimes we stumble; we make mistakes; we get frustrated or discouraged. But for more than two hundred years, we have put those things aside and placed our collective shoulder to the wheel of progress – to create and build and expand the possibilities of individual achievement; to free other nations from tyranny and fear; to promote justice, and fairness, and equality under the law, so that the words set to paper by our founders are made real for every citizen.
Obama used the brain damaged Cory as a metaphor for America: We are in a coma, we’ve made mistakes, while our country is being destroyed before our eyes, we can actually come out of the coma and live to be in Obama’s utopia.
In other words, to Obama, America is brain-damaged. He knows America is in the worst shape it has ever been…but he refuses to take the blame. After what Obama has done to the military, it was hard to watch.
As the chamber was emptying, it was clear. After the show was over, the poor soldier was noticeably flushed in his glorious moment and turned to the first Lady for the recognition that she had gotten from her through-out the ordeal. After all, she was so tender, so warm, so affectionate, I’m sure the poor kid thought she really thought the world of him.
But she—just turned away. Completely ignored him. It was clear, she was finished with her job…and she wanted out of there. She couldn’t get away from him quick enough. (The camera got off that scene..quick.)
Look how Obama set this up:
I first met Cory Remsburg, a proud Army Ranger, at Omaha Beach on the 65th anniversary of D-Day. Along with some of his fellow Rangers, he walked me through the program – a strong, impressive young man, with an easy manner, sharp as a tack. We joked around, and took pictures, and I told him to stay in touch.
(Notice Obama wants you to know he went to Omaha)
He later said he went to visit him in the hospital. If he did, it was to be able to say he did in this speech.
Nobody Knows, but Nobody can guess that Obama’s only interest in this poor soldier was how he could use him as a prop in the ending of his speech. To pull the lie that Obama…IS a patriotic man.
The good news is: Obama’s speech was, as usual, full of lies, and the country is so bad, all he could do was muster up his talent as a speaker, and give a Rah, Rah Rah talk. And he knows it. So he starts out saying WE THE CITIZENS are the hero’s. As IF flattering us is going to make us feel any better. We got the same old liberal causes:
COLLEGE: The themes are the old and tried ones we’ve been hearing from him for years. He promised everyone needs to go to college….and then introduces a woman who has a degree, but can’t get a job…so therefore the government should give her more unemployment.
So, go to college, and get unemployment. And because all the blue collar jobs are gone, going to college is just a waste of time…so therefore Obama wants “skills” training.
INFRASTUCTURE: Yeah, we still need that.
ASIA PACIFIC TREATY: Will bring jobs. Just like NAFTA.
HUB: He’s going to build hubs. For technology. For NSA.MORE. Six at least. Can’t wait.
ENERGY: Obama is the reason we have gas, and oil— “And even as we’ve increased energy production, we’ve partnered with businesses, builders, and local communities to reduce the energy we consume.” (TAX, TAX, TAX)
CLIMATE CHANGE: “But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact.”
IMMAGRATION: Amnesty
JOBS: Obama is going to somehow tell companies and colleges to take taxpayers money and create jobs. Obama will master all money, tell the companies and schools how to do everything. and he will do this with more money. He will force CEO to hire people.
SCHOOLS: Obama wants the kids in at 4. But after birth would be good too. And all schools need internet. (TAX, TAX) More money.
WOMEN: Just because women HAVE to drop out of the workforce and raise kids—that does not mean she can be paid less than the man who is working for that year and making connections, and continuing his job..no she needs to be paid equal even though she is not working. Woman are not paid the same as a man. It’s Hillary’s platform because the whole democratic side went nuts with applause. (They got the memo) That’s why GM has a woman CEO…it’s just so unfair. Tell me, is Hillary getting fair pay?
ECONOMY: “Give America a raise.” Obama’s answer to fixing the economy. Just give everybody money. And let people set up a MYIRA retirement fund: because that will give the government more money to take when it all collapse.
IRAN: Diplomacy works, and Hitler was a good guy.
Nothing on the NSA. Not much on gun violence: he’s taking care of that by declaring that half the population is mental, therefore cannot own a gun.
And My personal favorite…Obama wants to close Guantanamo— Because of the Constitution.
–because we counter terrorism not just through intelligence and military action, but by remaining true to our Constitutional ideals, and setting an example for the rest of the world.
Fancy that: Obama loves the Constitution when it applies to terrorists that want to murder us. They deserve our Constitution…us..not so much.
Boehner was perfect
And just so you know—more—
That’s why I believe this can be a breakthrough year for America. After five years of grit and determined effort, the United States is better-positioned for the 21st century than any other nation on Earth. (Right…)
As President, I’m committed to making Washington work better, and rebuilding the trust of the people who sent us here.(Sure)
Most importantly, Obama let everyone knows that HE is the King, so it doesn’t even matter anymore if our state of the union is pretty bad…he’s got a pretty good life:
But America does not stand still — and neither will I. So wherever and whenever I can take steps without legislation to expand opportunity for more American families, that’s what I’m going to do.”
“If he believes, and the Justice department believes, he has the authority to make progress, to strengthen the middle class, give people opportunity in this country, he will take it,” Podesta said.
That’s the plan. Just dictate.
So, it was clear tonight, Obama knows the country is doing really badly, but he knows nobody will impeach him, so he has three more years to have a grand time traveling the planet.
Unless of course, that brain-dead nation called America wakes up.
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.
