Little is yet publicly known about the kidnapping over three weeks ago of Sherri Papini from a suburb of Redding in northern California. The beautiful 34-year-old married mother of two was out jogging when she disappeared and law enforcement officials appeared to be stumped with few if any meaningful clues. Thankfully, she turned up alive on a roadside near Woodland, approximately 150 miles south of where she disappeared.
Her husband Keith was grilled by investigators and took at least one polygraph test while she was missing; he was essentially cleared of any suspicion. The vivacious Sherri captured the attention of everyone in the northern California communities, not only because of her attractiveness but also because of the manner in which she was perceived by those who know her.... friendly, outgoing, caring. Rewards for her return soared to over $50,000.
Then, she was miraculously found at the side of a freeway ramp on Interstate 5. She had been beaten savagely and repeatedly, starved down to 87 pounds, hair butchered, chained, nose broken... by all accounts, she was an ugly mess. I can't even begin to imagine what this has done to her from a psychological standpoint.
Keith Papini has revealed that countless people are claiming her abduction was an elaborate hoax. Many have taken to social media to cast doubts on her story, citing that
Papini could not give authorities a detailed description of her
abductors. While she was able to say that she was dumped on the side of the road by two Hispanic females in a dark SUV, some people were quoting anonymous sources as saying Papini had concocted similar
kidnapping tales in the past and had posted anti-Latino sentiments on
blogs.
How ugly and insensitive can you get?

ENOUGH WITH THE DAMNED COP KILLINGS!
SPECIAL POST
It may have been a great and Happy Thanksgiving for most of the nation but, for many of the country's law enforcement agencies and families it was a horrible tragedy as more cop killings occurred, one after the other after the other. And you know what? It's become just like the violence in Chicago; nobody seems to care anymore!
Where is the outrage?
These men and women take their lives into their own hands every time they put on a uniform. We ask them to go into the roughest of neighborhoods and to encounter drug-crazed criminals, racists with an agenda, disease, fires, pestilence and worse every day, and we also expect them to have their uniforms cleaned and pressed at all times? These are the officers who show up to deliver babies, remove people from fiery car crashes... and coach little league teams.
And we just shrug our shoulders and flip the channel?
What in the Sam hell has this American society become?
Why aren't we doing something about it? Why haven't we impeached and removed our president for condoning it?

ABOUT MITT ROMNEY
I never liked Mitt Romney. I lobbied strongly against him when he ran for president in 2012 and, when he got the nomination anyway because the Republican hierarchy pulled out all of the stops and tricks to make it happen, I came as close to not voting at all as I have ever come. I did vote for him, only because it was either him or Obama.
He's no better than Obama, Reid, Pelosi or the likes... he's a progressive elitist... an opportunist who is convinced that he should be the president so he can be in charge. Yes, he's a take charge guy who doesn't give a damn what you or I or John Q. Public thinks. In every respect, he is the epitome of the "establishment" that you and I despise. And during the campaign, he called Trump and you and I virtually every name in the book and he fought bitterly, even after Trump won the nomination, to keep him from winning.
Trump may feel that bringing Romney on board will unite the party. Well, it may succeed in uniting the "establishment" with Trump, but it will alienate those of us who believed in him and supported him and the Republican Party will still be split.
One thing is certain: If Romney ends up in a coveted position within the Trump administration, it will prove that he was right-on when he called Trump a fraud and a con man. And Trump will instantly become categorized as just another dirty, lying, rotten politician who doesn't really give a damn about the American public.

JUST IN TIME FOR THANKSGIVING: MASSACRE THE DAMNED INDIANS!
SPECIAL POST
Violence has once again erupted on the Standing Rock Sioux Nation in below-freezing temperatures of North Dakota as Native American protesters, attempting to protect their sacred sites and clean water, were pelted by fire hoses, tear gas and rubber bullets Sunday... sending at least 17 to hospitals and injuring scores of others.
"The easement to build the unsafe Dakota Access Pipeline has not been granted. But under the cover of darkness, North Dakota law enforcement continues to engage in unlawful and dehumanizing tactics to subdue peaceful water protectors with tear gas and water cannons," Dave Archambault II, the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, said. "Live video footage on Facebook this Sunday night (Nov. 20) clearly documents that North Dakota's law enforcement and government officials have sanctioned aggressive acts in failed attempts to disperse water protectors who have the right to demonstrate against and report on this failing project. It's time for President Obama to condemn these tactics and this pipeline."
Although the footage that I have seen totally shows otherwise, law enforcement authorities are calling it a riot. This particular showdown occurred after law enforcement officials blocked off an eight-mile stretch of highway at the request of Dakota Access, the pipeline company.
Once again in American history, money trumps common sense and Native Americans are on the short end of the stick. My guess is that the only reason Obama has not intervened is that they are not black and they are not Muslims.
Happy Thanksgiving, America. See you Monday.

FUKUSHIMA REDUX?
SPECIAL POST
Back in March of 2011, there was an enormous earthquake off the coast of Japan that rattled the nuclear plants at Fukushima, causing a meltdown in two reactors and releasing radioactive particles into both water and air. Since then, mutated life forms have been found in the forests and there have been human babies born in Japan with extra arms and legs; marine life off the coast has been dying off.
The virtual news blackout regarding Fukushima may be leading the public to assume that the problem is now under control, but the truth is that nothing has yet been done to address the main issue... there are still piles of highly radioactive molten fuel rods burning uncontrollably beneath the three damaged buildings that housed the reactors.

The virtual news blackout regarding Fukushima may be leading the public to assume that the problem is now under control, but the truth is that nothing has yet been done to address the main issue... there are still piles of highly radioactive molten fuel rods burning uncontrollably beneath the three damaged buildings that housed the reactors.
They are still wrestling with the
problem of containment of millions of gallons of highly radioactive
water under the site; they've tried everything from installing concrete
barriers to freezing the water. What compounded the problems is that
the Japanese government firmly refused to allow technical help from the
United States.
Naturalnews.com is reporting official data released at the National Conference on Radiation Control
shows the U.S. has been experiencing a huge spike in radiation from
Fukushima. Levels are considered to be far exceeding the federal
regulatory limit, with nearly 1,000 times the normal amount of alpha
particles recorded, including plutonium. Alpha radiation is thought to be the least dangerous
form of radiation when compared with beta and gamma rays – with even
simple clothing stopping the alpha particles from reaching the body.
However, alpha particles become extremely dangerous when ingested or
inhaled. If you're fortunate and only consume small doses, you may not
show any symptoms. However, many people who are exposed suffer radiation
sickness including nausea, vomiting, headaches and fatigue.
And now comes another major earthquake just off the coast of Fukushima. They are saying the existing operating nuclear plants have not been damaged, but what about all of that pent up radiation at the Fukushima site?
This issue is very scary and bears our ongoing monitoring.

IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD, YOU'D BETTER READ THIS
SPECIAL POST
Imagine your life without God in it. Why were you born? Why are you living? What is your purpose? If your conscious disappears when you die, where did it come from in the first place? Why is there a Bible and why did so many people participate in creating it?
The left-wing of this country is bound and determined to remove God from your life. You have no right to your God, no right to follow His teachings and certainly no right to display your belief in public in any manner whatsoever. If you do, it's against the law.
Never mind that our Constitution provides for freedom of religion; our forefathers really meant to write from instead of of. And no, our country was not founded on religious principles. Therefore, you must embrace homosexuality, you cannot display the cross, you cannot pray before or after a football game, you must allow men into women's restrooms... but if you happen to be a Muslim, you can do what ever you want. And with the exception of the Muslim religion, no religious organization is allowed to say anything political or they lose their tax exempt status.
Other tenets of our Constitution don't mean anything when it comes to religion; no freedom of speech, no freedom of association, no right to pray... we are a godless society, with the exception of Muhammad of course.
You may pooh pah what I am saying here, you may even take exception to it; but, deep down in your heart, you know that what I am saying is true. People of faith, taught from an early age to be proud of their religions, are now finding themselves faced with shucking and ducking in order to maintain civility in their lives. It appears that the only thing worse than believing in God and God's teachings is voting for Donald Trump.
When you stop and think about it, religion and religious beliefs have been under attack at an alarmingly increasing rate in this country for several decades. What is even more alarming is that those of us of faith are not standing up to do something about it.

DISSENTERS: THEY'RE IRRELEVANT
For well over eight years, the left wing of the Democrat Party has been hollering, ranting and raving at genuine Americans... screaming at the tops of their lungs whenever anything doesn't go their way. They just had eight years of control over the White House... the first two of them with a completely controlled Congress; yet, they haven't accomplished one single thing that made America better.
Americans decided that they want a new direction; they're not happy at all with the way things are going. And the guys who got voted out because they can't accomplish anything positive... are all crying their lungs out like little babies. They had their chance, they blew it and we're at fault?
Simply put, they are now irrelevant. They are out of power. Their agenda has been proven to be something Americans don't want.
So, they scream... the media screams, Pelosi and Reid scream, Obama eggs them on. Their zombies take to the streets. The problem here is that we are giving them credibility by reacting. Certainly you have to understand that if we get on our pulpits and denounce them for what they are, we are saying to the world that what they say bothers us.
But, they have no voice. They lost it.
So, why are we paying any attention to them?

TO HELL WITH AMERICAN PRESS AND MEDIA
SPECIAL POST
I've had it! For several decades, the American press and media have been becoming more and more stooges of the left, hiding the facts and truth from the American people and covering up the misdeeds of their radical counterparts in government. They have attacked, attacked and attacked everyone in this country who even looks like he might be a conservative or a Republican.
I've had enough. Fortunately for them, there's a thing called "Freedom of the Press" in our Constitution, or I'd favor shutting down every damned one of them who uses that freedom to advance their own political agendas. Americans have every right to know facts, and those who deny us that right should be strung up on the yardarms.
Nevertheless, there is a way we can fight back. We can quit buying their damned products... cancel our newspaper and magazine subscriptions and turn off their news broadcasts. We can send emails and letters of complaint to those who advertise their wares with them. In other words, we can treat them just like they've been treating us for far too long... we can get in their faces and their pocketbooks.
To hell with them.

ABOUT PUTIN
SPECIAL POST
There has been a lot of flap over the last couple of days about Trump's interaction with Putin. He's indicated when he was campaigning that he thought he could get along with Putin. He's already had a conversation with Putin since his election and everyone and their uncle is now weighing in to give advice and, in some cases demands, on how to this relationship should progress.
McCain wants Trump to lay down the law with a loud bang of his shoe. McCain is convinced that Trump is going to be bamboozled by the Russian oligarch, to the detriment of our country.
Now, I have no love for Putin. He's undoubtedly a ruthless bastard who has every intention of reassembling the Soviet Union; that's just a fact. On the other hand, we've had a president for eight years who still doesn't know poop from Shinola about foreign affairs. He and his illustrious Secretaries of State, (Clinton and Kerry), have totally screwed up our relations with every country on the planet. One thing's for certain: Putin ran Obama over in every respect.
I learned a long time ago that the best way to handle tricky situations is to proceed with with your eyes open and from a position of strength. But, when you're playing poker, you don't even think about playing your ace-in-the-hole card until the game is well along into the evening. Start softly, but carry a big stick... or something like that. You can always get tougher when necessary, but if you start tough... where do you go from there if that approach doesn't work?
In this case, starting tough could well lead to war.
I agree with Trump's approach. Let's put our foot in the water and see what the temperature is before we jump all of the way in.

ANTI-AMERICAN INSURRECTION?
SPECIAL POST
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Los Angeles Police Chief Charles Beck and many other top officials in cities across the country are coming forward to flatly say they will not support any attempt to end the sanctuary city program or efforts to deport illegals, whether they have criminal convictions or not. Ford Motor Company has flatly said it will not cooperate with Trump's plans to keep American jobs in America and they are moving substantial operations to Mexico anyway. Top Democrats in Congress are joining forces behind Elizabeth Warren to warn Trump they will fight everything he does every step of the way. George Soros has been meeting with top Democrats, business leaders and contributors in Washington to strategize how to stop Trump... and the to nullify results of the election.
What's next? Are Washington's top government bureaucrats now going to threaten to mutiny and disobey or ignore Trump's policies and directives? What will happen to this country if the disenchanted progressives unify in open insurrection? The press, the media, many top government and business people are already encouraging protests... even subscribing to violence in many cases. Twitter has been alive with calls for Trump's assassination, as Facebook and Google vow to shut down any conservative or pro-Trump news posts.
Is America's second Civil War imminent?

THE PEOPLE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW
SPECIAL POST
It has been suggested in many circles that all investigations into the Clinton regime should be cancelled and Clinton should be pardoned. Even I have taken the stance that it will do the country no particular good and a lot of potential harm if we get mired down in a huge political witch hunt. There are far too many major problems in the process of surfacing that we will have to face and deal with for us to be entrenched in scandal.
But, that's from a political standpoint. If there were crimes committed, and we certainly think there were, then we have a right to know what the crimes were and who was involved. Those involved should be identified, charged and tried in a court of law.
But, how do you keep the politics out of it? That question makes the case for an apolitical independent prosecutor. Congressional committees stay out of it and the Trump presidency is not involved in the investigations. Any pardon by Obama as he goes out the door serves as confirmation that she did something for which she can be charged, tried and convicted. Should she not be pardoned, but is later charged or tried, Trump could himself pardon her based upon some stipulations, such as admitting guilt and turning in her license to practice law. That, of course, would depend on the extent and nature of the charges.
By this methodology, those who were complicit in any wrongdoing can also be held accountable, as they should be. We cannot sweep this under the rug; to do so invites repetition by someone else down the road. Besides, we have a right to know just how close we came to having our government overthrown.

DON'T ALLOW THE MOVEMENT TO FIZZLE
SPECIAL POST
Once a goal is achieved, there is a human tendency to sit back on one's haunches, savor the moment and to turn your attention to something else, like the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders, for example. Unfortunately, we don't have the luxury of allowing that to happen; the battle has just begun.
Corruption, greed, disregard for the will of the American people... these are all like weeds. You can stomp them down and stomp them down some more, but they will continue to grow and flourish unless you pull out the strongest of herbicides and drown them in it. In other words, if you think for one moment that Congress and all of the corrupted bureaucrats are now going to disappear into the woodwork because Trump is the new sheriff in town, you've sorely mistaken. For one thing, the roots of these weeds are deep and well-established.
Congress has totally disregarded the will of the American people for at least 30 years. The Supreme Court stopped interpreting the Constitution and laws 40 or 50 years ago and started manufacturing its own laws, which is totally unconstitutional. Bureaucrats have become so ensconced in their huge private offices and limousines that they are now delusional with power.
We have to identify and rout out these evildoers and we have to ensure that the weeds will never grow back. You and I both know you can't change the stripes on a zebra.
To that end, we must maintain vigilance and we must scream and holler like wounded banshees whenever we spot a weed, or even the slightest tip of a leaf.

PULP FICTION
SPECIAL POST
The behavior of the mainstream media has been beyond the pale for years. It reached a huge crescendo during the final months of the Trump campaign and it continues to fuel dissent and protest, even as the fact that the election was actually a full-blown revolt slowly sinks in. There has been a lot of ink spilled over the issue of the press and journalism in general in this country and a whole lot of angst from the people. Nevertheless, they are making it apparent that they will continue to oppose Trump every day and every hour of his presidency.
Everyone has a right to an opinion, but professional journalists have absolutely no right to turn themselves into propaganda arms for any political party.
I hope Trump yanks the press credentials of any White House correspondent who fails to report on events from an objective and factual standpoint, and I hope the entire country quits buying the pulp fiction that has been portrayed far too long as news of the day.

BE READY FOR A SERIOUS DISCUSSION
This election was not at all about Clinton or Trump, nor was it about Republicans versus Democrats. To understand what this election was about, you have to have been around for World War II, to have served at some point in the United States military, and/or to have studied world history and the history of America. You have to realize in your heart that this great country, as imperfect as it may be at times, is still the best place on the face of the earth for a human being to live.
To those who would turn their backs on our nation and move to Canada or Mexico, I say... go ahead and move, but don't ever even think about coming back.
Those of us who really do know and understand, know that this country reached the cliff and stared into the abyss, and we put one foot forward; had we lost our balance, we would have lost our country.
This election was about whether or not we had reached the point in our country where we were ready to turn our backs on our freedoms, our Constitution and our God who led us here to this great place... and to proceed down the paths of totalitarianism. Are we truly happy being out of work, poor and under the thumbs of government?
Going into this election, we prayed to God for a rescue and He complied. Upon hearing the news, we breathed a big sigh of relief, and hopefully thanked God. Does that mean that this is all over? Does it mean we can go back to business as usual with our heads stuck in the sand? Do we now thank God by burning his Bible and forgetting His commandments?
Perhaps the bigger question is: if not, why not?
Let us take a serious moment to search our souls and discover who we really are.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.

THE DEPLORABLES
SPECIAL POST
Like it or not, on January 20, 2017 we "deplorables" are going to take back our country.
That's a fitting tribute to America on Veterans Day.
And, that's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.

I AM SO GLAD TO BE WRITING THIS POST
SPECIAL POST
This election was not about a national referendum in favor of the Republican Party. In fact, if they don't change their establishment ways, I believe this country will show them the door in 2018.
This election was not about race.
This election was not about sex or "glass ceilings."
This election WAS about the lies, spins and agendas of the left-wing media.
This election WAS about crime, graft and corruption in Washington.
This election WAS about those in office and government who think the government belongs to them and not to the people.
This election WAS about our borders and our national security.
This election was about the Supreme Court and about our Constitutional guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness enumerated in the Bill of Rights.
This election was about restoring States' rights.
And I have to think that this election was about the restoration of religious freedoms.
For the first time in 28 years, I feel a breath of fresh air wafting through the cesspool and stench of Washington.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.

THE ELECTION: MY FINAL THOUGHTS
For many and varied reasons, I don't think many of us in this country are happy with the way things are going. Congress has been basking in its lowest ratings in history, almost joined at the hip in the cellar ratings with the national news media. Polls seem to show 65% or more of Americans are dissatisfied with where the country is heading.
Yet, we all know that Hillary Clinton will not only continue to lead us down this path to oblivion, but that she will drag her criminal baggage with her, exposing the country to endless lawsuits and court hearings, and paralyzing Washington. Somehow, we simply have to get past this.
You may not like Trump; he's got his share of negatives. But right now, Trump offers the only off-ramp from the highway to hell that we are now on. A good sign is that he is surrounding himself with learned and professional thinkers and advisers; a bad sign for Hillary is that she is surrounding herself with dullards, zombies and countless people who share her thirst for raw, brutal power and corrupt government.
When you step into the voting booth on Tuesday, think about what I have said and... please remember Benghazi. Vote for America. Vote for Trump.

AMERICA: KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE BALL
SPECIAL POST
We're down to the wire.
After 27 years of crappy government encompassing both the Republican and the Democrat parties, we have one final chance to reverse the declining course of our country and to reshape our destiny. Now is the time when we must return control of our government to the people and to the states where it legally and justly belongs.
I can almost taste it.
Regardless of what happens between now and Election Day, keep your eyes on the ball. We have to show up in huge numbers at the polls, dragging our friends, relatives and neighbors... and we have to vote the corruption, the power mongers and our enemies out of office.
Nothing is more vital or important to our nation than Tuesday... not even the Chicago Cubs.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.

ABEDIN'S EMAILS: IS THE FIX IN ALREADY?
SPECIAL POST
Late yesterday afternoon, the Department of Justice announced it is going to work closely with the FBI to examine the emails on Abedin's laptop as expeditiously as possible; it will dedicate all department resources to quickly examine the emails. In a letter to Congress Peter Kadzik, the Assistant Attorney General, vowed the DOJ “will continue to work closely with the FBI and together, dedicate all necessary resources and take appropriate steps as expeditiously as possible.”
Isn't that terrific?
Peter Kadzik was in a meeting with John Podesta the day after the Benghazi hearings. In fact, the two are bosom buddies and meet frequently. John Podesta is, of course, Clinton's campaign director.
Yes, yes... isn't that terrific?

STENCH IS TOO MUCH TO BEAR
SPECIAL POST
As I've said many times before over different issues, "enough is enough." What is coming out now is too much to stomach. And yet, we know there is still more to come and that it will drag on and on and on long after the election.
Donna Brazile conspired with CNN and the DNC to provide Clinton with copies of debate questions in advance of the CNN presidential debate. The DOJ told the FBI it had better stay away from any serious findings in its investigation into Clinton's emails and the Clinton Foundation. Clinton "destroyed" 33,000+ emails immediately after receiving a Congressional summons to produce them, and she was never charged with obstruction of justice. Her aides received partial immunity; we were told the FBI gave it to her, but the Attorney General is the only one who could grant it. That Attorney General met in what was to have been a totally secret meeting with Clinton's husband in a plane on the tarmac at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport and days later... Comey announced he was not recommending charges. Leaks from WikiLeaks prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that Clinton, her aides and her campaign are a big bad bunch of slimeballs.
And then... there's the Clinton Foundation. And then... there's the Benghazi Massacre.
I had enough of this crap in the Watergate days. Somebody has to go to jail, and her name is Hillary Rodham Clinton. Her aides and campaign honchos should probably go with her.
One thing s for certain: anybody who votes for her for president is either totally ignorant or they're not an American.
