Beneath the surface this is what I truly believe:
The baby boomer(hippy generation) destroyed this country–they were unbelievably selfish, narrow-minded, and shallow. Not to mention egotistical ! I know many born in those years were not raised to be hippies. They came from the remnants of our old country–mid country mostly. But those born raised on the coasts of this great continent succumbed to the forever disease of coast cities–exposure to new things that creates a superior attitude. It was that attitude that assured them they were correct in all things. Their observations about some situations were correct, But as is always true of spoiled children their ability to sit still long enough to do the deep analysis before designing “solutions” was limited and it is what began the long slow decline of this great country.
In my observations most of these children were born to returning GI’s who grabbed their new opportunity for an education (GI Bill), and went out into the world as success and because they had fought so hard for liberty they allowed their children this new “freedom”.
End of rant. It’s just that I get tired of seeing these people sixty years down the road looking at their children (daughters mostly) and asking “what the heck happened?”
P.S. They usually respond with “yeah, but by the time I hit 40 I saw the light and straightened out my style of living”. Yes, but that was too late for your kids!

It is estimated 10 million gun owners are not registered to vote
As many as 104 million people of faith, including 32 million self-identified Christians who regularly attend church, are unlikely to vote in the upcoming 2024 presidential election on Nov. 5 mainly due to lack of interest, research from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University shows.
ghostsniperOctober 11, 2024, 1:06 PM
My understanding is that there are a fair amount of people that refuse to engage with a criminal entity.
From your reference:
The research by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University (CRC) indicates that enthusiasm for this election is lower than usual, and certainly lower than in 2020. A primary reason for that diminished interest is the public’s distaste for both major-party candidates (Donald Trump, Kamala Harris). Other significant reasons for the heightened disinterest include the aging out of Boomers and Elders (two generations that were highly involved in past elections) alongside the emergence of the less politically energized Millennials and Gen Z; public dissatisfaction with the quality of government, in general; and the widespread expectation that the results of the election will be manipulated by illegal, behind-the-scenes activities and voting by illegal immigrants. Historical data indicates that turnout among the voting age population was about 54% in 2012 (Obama-Romney); 55% in 2016 (Trump-Clinton); and 61% in 2020 (Trump-Biden).
Maybe. But what have we learned about polls over the past few years? I know nothing of ACU but I know the “Christian” church I was raised in (hillbilly evangelical Presbyterian) has gone fully woke. If the present members follow the guidance of the church leaders, they’ll vote Harris.
azlibertarianOctober 11, 2024, 7:19 PM
A little perspective is in order. From Arizona Christian University’s Wiki page….
“….The university was founded to prepare students for careers in vocational ministry and missions, offering degrees in Biblical Studies and Christian Ministries….”
This isn’t to say that they’re wrong in predicting a low election turnout from Christians. I simply note that they wouldn’t be the first ones that I would seek out to answer this question.

Did you hear about all the “friends & allies” of the US sending us money for hurricane damage?
Me neither.
Where that Silly-ensky and Nutty-yahoo iz???
Oh, I see, that “friends & allies” nonsense only goes one way.
Sounds like a scam to me.
Many, many years ago when I was yung and dumb I “noticed” that when I had a lot of guzz and buzz friends were aplenty, but when I didn’t, I was the loneliest person on the planet. Some friends, eh?
So I turned isolationist, kicked all of them to the curb, got married, had a kid, and started a business.
I haven’t seen those friends in over 40 years but I still have my wife, our son, and my business.
If I had “noticed” them friends 10 years earlier, look at all the money I would have saved.

Cool picture, and it got me thinking. There a scale problem in the universe. A scale problem is when big things are compared to small things. We prefer that interacting things be near the same size.
The problem is our timeline is so short, and the universe timelines are so long. It has taken 14 (?!?! nobody knows really ??!!) billion years to get to this point. Multiple generations of stars had to ignite, live, go kablooie and scatter their manufactured elements throughout the gas clouds. Our sun alone has a 10 billion-year lifetime, and it’s less than halfway there. This picture up there shows a star nursery, surrounded by all these gas and dust clouds. And that’s just our galaxy, there are billions (?!) more out there.
The scale problem is this: if the universe is so long-lived, why are our lives so short? I tend to think these days that the universe looks like it was *** designed ***. The first super-massive stars created black holes. Those black holes were the seeds of galaxies, growing to enormous size and power. The galaxies create stars. The stars create all the elements past helium. New generations of finally metal-rich gas clouds create stars with metal-rich planets. The planets create life.
Everything in the universe is long-lived except life. All life seems to be very short-lived, and must continually breed new life if it is to survive. Our timelines are so short, we cannot see where we fit into this designed universe, what is life’s role. And even scarier, what comes after us.
I’ve been thinking about this stuff since I was a boy. Without faith, none of this makes any sense at all.
DTOctober 12, 2024, 3:56 PM
As I see it, there are two possibilities: the universe was designed – or the universe just happened. Neither makes much sense to us monkeys running around and perhaps – or likely – there are other possibilities which basically, scare the *** out of me as in not-afraid but in how weak our knowledge and imagination really is.
One off the wall theory: ALL Gods are real. They’re all sitting around a poker table with souls as chips. The big players now are Christian, Jewish, Islam (all three basically the same religion, eh?), Hindu, Buddhism, Shinto, Sikhism, and maybe even the monkey gods of unknown peoples. The world ends when the poker game does.
No one really answers “What came before?” (Is the universe finite or infinite? Can we truly grasp either concept?) with lots of theories of “What comes after?” (non-existence I suspect).

It was long after midnight
When we got to unconditional love
She said sure, my heart is boundless
But don’t push my limits too far
I said if love was so transcendant
I don’t understand these boundaries
She said just don’t disappoint me —
You know how complex women are
I’ll be around
If you don’t let me down
Too far
It was just before sunrise
When we started on traditional roles
She said sure I’ll be your partner
But don’t make too many demands
I said if love has these conditions
I don’t understand those songs you love
She said this is not a love song
This isn’t fantasy-land
I’ll be around
If you don’t push me down
Too far
DON’T GO TOO FAR —
The phosphorescent wave on a tropical sea
Is a cold fire
DON’T CROSS THE LINE —
The pattern of moonlight on the bedroom floor
Is a cold fire
DON’T LET ME DOWN —
The flame at the heart of a pawnbroker’s diamond
Is a cold fire
DON’T BREAK THE SPELL —
The look in your eyes as you head for the door
Is a cold fire
Love is blind if you are gentle
Love can turn to a long, cold burn

To win the national election, what worked 4 years before doesn’t work the next time. Circumstances and society and culture have changed enough that the candidates cannot just keep doing what they did before. Well, at least for the President, all the Senators and Representatives get elected by default and are rarely exchanged.
The Harridan ran a derivative campaign in ’16 and lost. T ran a derivative campaign in ’20 and “lost”. The two GOPe candidates in ’08 and ’12 ran derivative campaigns and lost.
The winner is the candidate who figures out the new thing that works for the new electorate.
The new thing is only recognized in retrospect, because if a candidate tries something new and loses, well, that wasn’t the new thing. The new thing is only dimly seen before the election.
In ’20 it was the massive fraud from mail-order ballots, and counting chicanery needed to inject those ballots. I don’t think mail-order ballots will be the thing this time. Massive illegal alien voting just might be. I don’t think anybody this side of the deepest skullduggery organs of the Demoncrat Party know how big and significant the illegal alien vote is going to be. And those IA’s are definitely not included in any of the polling results being touted. But the ‘crats didn’t import all the IA’s just because they are soft-hearted and generous with our money. I think the importation of illegals and their placement was designed to achieve electoral results. No, the ‘crats intend to win elections with these illegals, and we are paying for it. The public corruption and lust for power by any means fair and mostly foul, in plain view, is breathtaking.
What’s also breathtaking is the civic competence of the moron vote. In ’20, they voted for a senile old man. In ’24, they will vote for a thot. T is in full control of himself and his faculties. The (D) side is putting up outright numbskulls and nincompoops, and half the country votes for them without any reservation. Amazing. And frightening. What can’t go on, won’t.

I stand behind my premise that money makes the world go ’round, and keeps gov’t’s good and bad churning along. As long as the money is readily available the gov’t shenanigans will continue.
As you said, “What can’t go on, won’t.”, but yet it does.
I’ve been waiting 30 years for the fail.
Rather than wondering when the system will fail, I should be thinking about why it has not failed.
But then, I don’t understand how the system exists in the first place, and I don’t think anyone else does too. It just is. I know, that doesn’t make sense, but it’s all I got….
When the free money is no longer available things will start to straighten out.
When things start to straighten out millions upon millions of lives will be changed forever, some good, most bad. Real bad.
Much of my free thinking time these days is trying to determine what my wife and I can do for barter or trade regarding exchanging goods and services with others when legal tenders are no longer a choice and just in time delivery is a thing og the past and most folks will be living at a local level.
Always Fake, Usually Gay
Lo and behold, but it turns out that the Real Men who are turning out for Kamala Harris in her television ads are just the usual theater kids pretending to be men they are not and could never be.
As many of you know, Jimmy Kimmel’s writer, Jacob Reed, directed an ad for the campaign titled Men for Kamala. The ad features what are presented as everyday male voters explaining why supporting Kamala Harris is the masculine thing to do. However, none of the men in the ad are actually regular voters—they are paid actors.
Moreover, their real-life circumstances differ significantly from the individuals they portray in the ad. Here are their stories:
Wayland McQueen is a far-left, pro-Antifa comedian and actor who has, until now, found limited success. He does improv gigs at the Upright Citizens Brigade in Los Angeles. In a Twitter post from 2022, he explains what white privilege is and tells you why you need to acknowledge your white privilege. As of 2024 he is single.
Lanre Idewu is an immigrant from Nigeria. He is also an actor who works at the D.C.-based OCTET Productions. He has many intimate pictures with the Obamas and the Bidens. Idewu, who is bisexual, has done gay-for-pay movies and nude solo shoots. In the Men for Kamala ad, he says he is “man enough to braid his daughter’s hair,” but the only problem is that he doesn’t have a daughter. Idewu isn’t braiding anyone’s hair.
Mike Leffingwell, a gay man, also works at the Upright Citizens Brigade, where McQueen works. He is an acting coach, cartoon writer for Netflix and DreamWorks, and an actor in TV commercials. On his public Instagram page, he showcases his participation in his latest project—the Men for Kamala ad.
Winston Carter, the heavyset fellow in the ad who claims to be a mechanic and rancher, lives in Los Angeles signed with Taft Broadcasting Company. He has found limited success in the acting world, mainly as an extra in films and as a character in the low-budget superhero film Spaghettiman.
Tony Ketcham, the tough, rugged, bearded grandpa in his garage in the Men for Kamala ad, is also an actor. He now mainly does low-budget independent films like Car Botz, where he played the role of PePaw. Tony is unmarried in real life. In 2001, he played the extra role of “alcoholic consumer” in the movie Ghost World.
Well, I know I am just shocked to discover that these actors on television aren’t genuine. I definitely won’t be voting for Kamala now! What’s next, we’ll learn that the guys who were on The Big Bang Theory don’t actually do science?
Well – one of the girls did. Mayim Bialik (“Amy”) has a degree in neuroscience. Guess which career path pays better.

retired Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark “I know better than President Trump” Milley is expressing fears that he will be called back to active duty if President Trump is inaugurated.
His fear is that he will be made to stand Court Martial for his bragged-about treasonous acts of promising to deliver America’s war plans to the Chinese Communist Party Peoples’ Liberation Army in case Trump threatened the Peoples Republic of China, and for leading a mutiny of inter-service flag officers regarding the President’s orders for January 6.
If he did nothing wrong, he has nothing to worry about. Right?
So why is he worrying?
John A. FlemingOctober 12, 2024, 9:24 PM
I mean there’s evidence out there that Trump was erratic after the election, and he was going to order China to be nuked. And he was planning an antifa and codepink-style invasion of the Capitol. After all, in 2020 that’s how political change got done, by antifa and BLM direct action: that was the new normal.
Right? Right?? All Milley has to do is bring that evidence, and all his buddies on the jury will acquit him. And the military justice system, judges and persecutors, is completely captured by leftists that to a man despise Trump, and will brook no “command interference”.
So what’s he worried about? If I were him I’d be saying “Bring it, I’d like another shot at taking down that maniac Trump.”

Milley had visions of grandeur. His character did not test well.

My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street

I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street

I just bought a froe and a drawknife this week.
Great comment, Ghost.

Always Fake, Usually Gay
Lo and behold, but it turns out that the Real Men who are turning out for Kamala Harris in her television ads are just the usual theater kids pretending to be men they are not and could never be.
As many of you know, Jimmy Kimmel’s writer, Jacob Reed, directed an ad for the campaign titled Men for Kamala. The ad features what are presented as everyday male voters explaining why supporting Kamala Harris is the masculine thing to do. However, none of the men in the ad are actually regular voters—they are paid actors.
Moreover, their real-life circumstances differ significantly from the individuals they portray in the ad. Here are their stories:
Wayland McQueen is a far-left, pro-Antifa comedian and actor who has, until now, found limited success. He does improv gigs at the Upright Citizens Brigade in Los Angeles. In a Twitter post from 2022, he explains what white privilege is and tells you why you need to acknowledge your white privilege. As of 2024 he is single.
Lanre Idewu is an immigrant from Nigeria. He is also an actor who works at the D.C.-based OCTET Productions. He has many intimate pictures with the Obamas and the Bidens. Idewu, who is bisexual, has done gay-for-pay movies and nude solo shoots. In the Men for Kamala ad, he says he is “man enough to braid his daughter’s hair,” but the only problem is that he doesn’t have a daughter. Idewu isn’t braiding anyone’s hair.
Mike Leffingwell, a gay man, also works at the Upright Citizens Brigade, where McQueen works. He is an acting coach, cartoon writer for Netflix and DreamWorks, and an actor in TV commercials. On his public Instagram page, he showcases his participation in his latest project—the Men for Kamala ad.
Winston Carter, the heavyset fellow in the ad who claims to be a mechanic and rancher, lives in Los Angeles signed with Taft Broadcasting Company. He has found limited success in the acting world, mainly as an extra in films and as a character in the low-budget superhero film Spaghettiman.
Tony Ketcham, the tough, rugged, bearded grandpa in his garage in the Men for Kamala ad, is also an actor. He now mainly does low-budget independent films like Car Botz, where he played the role of PePaw. Tony is unmarried in real life. In 2001, he played the extra role of “alcoholic consumer” in the movie Ghost World.
Well, I know I am just shocked to discover that these actors on television aren’t genuine. I definitely won’t be voting for Kamala now! What’s next, we’ll learn that the guys who were on The Big Bang Theory don’t actually do science?

Well – one of the girls did. Mayim Bialik (“Amy”) has a degree in neuroscience. Guess which career path pays better.
I think not!

I have never had any use for any gov’t, ever.

And that is just plain retarded.

retired Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark “I know better than President Trump” Milley is expressing fears that he will be called back to active duty if President Trump is inaugurated.
His fear is that he will be made to stand Court Martial for his bragged-about treasonous acts of promising to deliver America’s war plans to the Chinese Communist Party Peoples’ Liberation Army in case Trump threatened the Peoples Republic of China, and for leading a mutiny of inter-service flag officers regarding the President’s orders for January 6.

If he did nothing wrong, he has nothing to worry about. Right?
So why is he worrying?
I mean there’s evidence out there that Trump was erratic after the election, and he was going to order China to be nuked. And he was planning an antifa and codepink-style invasion of the Capitol. After all, in 2020 that’s how political change got done, by antifa and BLM direct action: that was the new normal.
Right? Right?? All Milley has to do is bring that evidence, and all his buddies on the jury will acquit him. And the military justice system, judges and persecutors, is completely captured by leftists that to a man despise Trump, and will brook no “command interference”.
So what’s he worried about? If I were him I’d be saying “Bring it, I’d like another shot at taking down that maniac Trump.”
Milley had visions of grandeur. His character did not test well.
