A mild rant,,,
With the Appalachans purt much f#*Ked!, at least a large portion of it. Seeing the ‘response’ from that Blob from the Swamps of Maryland and Virginia,,,
then I see this

It’s our COUNTRY, not our government, we love. AS IT SHOULD BE.
Its not a Democracy, It IS a Representative REPUBLIC (and if you need to look up what THAT means, you also need to look up your teachers from school and bitchslap the shit out of them)
The ANTI-American scum preaching about ‘Threats to OUR democracy” or “we have to pass this to save OUR democracy” are not talking about the constitutionally provided government; they are talking about a CABAL of self appointed busybodies that LIKE having power, and those ‘elected’ that are spouting this crap, know who has the levers of power and it ain’t the elected,,,,

I called them “ANTI-American scum”, and I meant it. They have done everything they can to destroy this country, through every means possible short of lining the Cattle cars up and opening camps. They call those on the RIGHT, Fascists, when every deed exposes thier words as lies, and fascist. They can’t ‘convince’ us, so they try to replace us,,, NEVER understanding that given three generations, the replacements will be ‘just like us’,,, they may not look like us, but the things that made and make this country great are rather intoxicating and contagious given enough time. I see it now with third generation Hindi.
note: I said THIS COUNTRY, not this Government. Were We to get back to the original ideas of what ‘this government’s ‘ role was, that intoxication and contagion would spread even faster.
What boils my ass the most about the current shenanigans is how the face of this anti-American coalition is so blatantly HATEFUL of the very people he supposedly represents,,,, Its obvious his view on such is NOT that of a representative, but a presumptive king or something..
Kings USED TO lead thier armies into battle, That is what LEADERS do.

SO,,, when this NOVEMBER rolls around, I am going to do exactly as TL states EVERY SWINGING DICK AND JANE SHOULD DO. Get out the vote, even though we know they are going to do everything in their power to nuetralize our voices, we have to use that last chance to yell: and in doing so, absolve ourselves of any guilt for what comes next. This is the last chance to that box before things go to the last one.
Because, if this past 5 days is any indicator, what that CABAL has in store for us is gonna make the ghost of Hitler pale and fade. Start looking for like minded peeps in your Local Gov and LEO services. They are there, and probably feeling quite alone. I will admit that this is an area I am sorely lacking in. (I am also not ‘local’ and still get the hairy eyeball when I open my mouth, so there is that to contend with. At least I have 12 years of building a reputation as “the goto guy” for a lot of different reasons, and some that know me as such are in the local Gov, if only at the lower positions that actually do the work.)
WE ARE IT. NO ONE is going to come save our sorry butts. Putin is NOT going to be airdropping arms and ammo to the resistance, Israel won’t be doing any of that either; NO ONE IS. WE ARE IT.

I’ve plenty of scar tissue to say ‘I showed up’,,, I have a feeling there will be more yet. Don’t write off the slow ones either,,, some of them are tougher than nails and will keep on when all others have fallen to the side,,,
`“I want that guy that did 10 years at BurgerKing on my side: he might be dumber than a box of rocks, but he’s tough and stubborn,,,: Henry Rollins (paraphrased)




In regard to NC & TN, after reading about the different donations, I decided on Samaritans Purse. Dam sure ain’t gonna go with RC! Ain’t much, but maybe $50 will assist someone. We dodged a bullet here in C. FLA. Lotsa wind damage with tree limbs everywhere, and boatloads of H2O, but luckily no major damage. Only lost power for 45 minutes – didn’t even hafta break out the gennie. Good friend o mine just over on the W coast – maybe 50 miles away – told me today that they had about 4 feet of water! AFU!!! As you’d expect, FEMA told them that since it was a “secondary” home (his ‘main’ house is a bit North of Tampax – sorry, that’s Tampa), he wuz SOL. Boatloads of $$$$$$$$ fer the dam illegals and ferriners, but shit fer Americans!! Figures. Told him to let me know if’n I can help, but he sez he’s got things purty much handled. Main thing is he & wifey are OK. Gonna check back with him in a couple days and see how things are going. Mebe make another donation to Sams Purse, too.
Y’all take care (4 L’s),
Mike in FLA.

In many ways, I wish we could take it back to how it is supposed to be IMO,,, Churches and Independent Groups (like RC before it got “Woke”) and the Gov keep their paws OFF the peoples money. If I weren’t coughing up 30+% every paycheck to pay off the MOB in DC and our State Capitol of Frankfort, I’d have more ability to help others, and put aside or tithe those that offer that in need. The only thing our current BLOB/MOB has done is damage the very heart and spirit of AmeriCANS by teaching them to be dependent on that which has no loyalty to its dependents. Its like a Narcissitic Foster Parent, drunk and abusive on power, with no love of those it was put in charge of.
nuff for the night, trying to keep myself out of the bottle for a spell,,, When I am tempted, I’d best steer clear of that,,,,,

yah , l’ ve plenty enuff scars myself too.
always bare in mind the total description of our Republic. That being , it is a democratically elected constitutional Republic one. While no doubt an out of balance one , in that the population of the city dwellers vastly out numbers the real one.
so no, in my mind it is clearly possible for them liberal city folks to out vote the conservative sector.
just like weather reporting being over dramatic, still they paid no attention…
My power was out twelve hours here at the house. I carried on normally. Or was prepared for it to stay off indefinitely too. Preparedness.
most are not obviously
aint got nothin ta do with politics,
common sense plays a better tune to an easier path. Than to wait for any outside help other than yourself.
