Philosophy

It would be great if there was a “Conservative United Way” that would insure that the monies we donate help people help themselves, support our values, and make sure none of the funds go to opponents of our philosophy. 75 % would go to those charities while 25 % would go to individuals and organizations that support the values we uphold.  Here (below) are some examples of what would occur.

(1) Charities that give an individual a fishing pole and teach them to fish rather then give them a fish would be on the top of our list.

(2) Organizations that give even a penny to pro-abortion groups, public labor unions, and anti-Judeo-Christian values would be off our list.

(3) Foundations that support teaching the values of basic constitutional freedom, governmental constraints and individual independence would be on our list.

Whether you agree or disagree with Kevin McCarthy’s run for leadership of the House you must concur that he showed real class and dignity in the way that he dropped out of the race. In his concluding remarks he said that we needed a new direction in our leadership and I believe we should take his remarks to heart by bringing in Mia Love to this position. I understand that it’s unconventional to have a freshman congressperson take such a senior roll but we live in unconventional times where the top people vying for the Republican Nomination have never held political office. Mia Love will shake things up in the house of the people and demonstrate that this party is not just based on seniority and moments of the past  but unique talents and style for the future. Mia Love should be the next Speaker of the House.

The question may not be whether Hillary did anything illegal with her email/server but whether she would actually be indicted and tried as if she was a “regular citizen”? Would the Obama Administration allow this to occur when they know she has some deep dark secrets that she could expose in the process.  Are there political favors and knowledge that give her a get out of jail card that even the Republican’s would feel obligated to give her?  Would the Nixon Pardon become the Clinton Pardon for our times?  The truth is just as the emails and server we may never know the whole truth behind the political insider game but we do know that it tilts in favor of those who have been playing.

In today’s perilous times when old strong alliances appear to be disintegrating Israel must form a stronger alliance with the new strong kid on the block, Russia.  It is a sad state but reality supersedes our wishes and Russia now has an equal if not deeper ability to truly help keep Israel safe then the United States does.  Now it’s up to Israel to convince Russia that it’s in it’s best interest to do so even if means sharing a warm water port or agreeing to other demands that might have seen preposterous before the Obama Administration.  Israel should move slowly for a new possibly more friendly U.S Administration is only 18 months away but much evil can occur during that period so Israel must learn to speak Russian in words and actions.  When a void is left empty another nation fills it in and Israel doesn’t have the time to wait and talk it needs to act for it’s own survival.

I want an end to these senseless acts of violence in my lifetime!  No longer should innocent people sit like ducks in a shooting cage while a mass murder picks and chooses their victims! No more Umpqua, Columbine and Aurora!   There is only one real answer to this problem as stated in a previous blog and with this administration it won’t be done.  Here (below) are the key points to the true solution.

(1) Citizens with clean mental health and criminal records will  be trained by a private companies that works with the states in firearm protection

(2)Once these citizens have passed a test with this organization they can travel with concealed or open weapons through all states. The “Certified Defender”  will have access to contact police authorities in an emergency as soon as one might occur.

(3) Any organization that prohibits these individuals from entering their locations will be subject to a serious penalty and fine if an incident occurs.

(4) Those who might have some intent on committing such an act will never know if they will even be able to get off the first round because a Certified Defender maybe among their midst.

(5) Therefore gun free zone’s will not exist and these acts of violence will be terminated quickly before they even would begin.

Many of us dream of owning a Lamborghini but when reality checks in we realize that it’s not the most practical choice.  It’s not just the expense of buying such a vehicle but is it really practical to drive it in traffic and how well does it perform in our weather conditions. If we invest all our monies/efforts in this car and if it crashes we’re stuck with nothing but the bus.   Similarly many of us have a certain candidate that we dream about taking the nomination yet we must understand that realistically their path to the White House will be more difficult to navigate through traffic and the storms then the candidate that isn’t our top choice.  We therefore have to decide whether it’s best to end up with riding the bus or at least a candidate that has the Lamborghini tires.  Maybe in the end it’s up to us to take that trip in the Lamborghini and see whether it really will do the job or will lead us to that bust.

Please note I’ll take a ride in that Lamborghini any day.
