Just Rambling a Bit...

Lots of things on the radar today, from the gruesome Planned Parenthood revelations to the secret side agreements with Iran* to the Donald standing behind what he has said and done (no news there). But it was heartening to hear Rush Limbaugh reiterate his contention that the vast majority of Americans do not buy into the narrative pushed onto them by the mainstream media, and citing reports from that same media that bolster his argument.

I will admit to having been in total despair on occasion over the past several years, given the nation's hijacking by the left and all its subsidiary minorities.  This depressed condition led me to stop listening to talk radio and to watching entertainment rather than news TV, because I simply couldn't bear to hear any more bad news.  Happily for me and, I hope, for the bulk of the country, things seem to be looking up.  Here is some evidence:

  • The mainstream media has finally figured out that Hillary Clinton is her own worst enemy - Surprise!  The more people hear from her, the less they like her.  In fact, most Democrats prefer her in the downtrodden, subservient role than as an occupier of the central focus.
    • This being said, I hope that the rest of the Democrats don't make this connection until after she is the official nominee, so that any one of the truly able Republican contenders can defeat her.
  • Legally armed veterans have been stationing themselves at recruiting centers in order to afford the protection that our men and women in uniform have been denied by their national government.
    • On a side note, several states have already overridden the statute behind the horrific Tennessee killings by either posting National Guardsmen or allowing for the maintenance of firearms by specific servicemen  at these sites.  Guess they took their lead from the Sanctuary Cities...
  • Donald Trump is drawing huge, attentive, engaged crowds to hear what he has to say in what are undoubtedly "political" speeches, even though the main-streamers prefer to characterize his presentations as "a one-man show."  It is my belief that he has tapped into the sleeping giant whose parents and grandparents helped to defeat Nazism, fascism and true imperialism, and who were present to witness the end of the Soviet Union.  Perhaps the left should take note of this trend while remembering past crushing conquests by this giant's forebears.  He's ba-ack...
  • The hate- and division-mongering authorities in Baltimore are being brought up short in their attempts to railroad six police officers by the real evidence in the case, just as the race-baiters were in Ferguson.  The truth about the riots that devastated part of my beloved hometown is coming out, in spite of repeated denials from officials of the "stand down" order.
  • The formerly rainbow-hued White House is finally flying its American flag at half staff in honor of our slain Chattanooga servicemen.
  • Ted Cruz is able to score points with the incompetent I.C.E. Director in hearings about the illegal immigrant crime debacle, and have these be reported by most, if not all, of the media, not just a select, impartial few.  (Thank you again, Mr. Trump, for garnering more attention for this scandalous situation in just a few weeks than the grieving families of Americans slaughtered by illegals could in four and a half years...  It's about time.) 
  • Police officers are still making legitimate arrests when African-Americans with chips on their shoulders refuse to respect their requests for cooperation during legal stops.  Either a policeman has real authority over everyone or it's over no one; you can't have it both ways.
So, maybe there is some hope, even in light of the heavily reported, but mostly unsupported, tales of our nation's moral decline and the majority's buying happily into it.  Better late than never, lots of us who were previously taken in have discerned the truth behind the story line that has been foisted on us by a biased media, and guess what?  There really are more of us than there are of them; we just need to rebuff their efforts to convince us otherwise.  Isn't that GREAT news?

More tomorrow...

*Yes, once again the Administration has connived behind the backs of Congress and the American people to remove any remaining baby teeth from this farcical agreement.  You'll be hearing more about this...
