Where to Pick Up?

Thanks for your patience while waiting for me to get my schedule and my act together.  It's been an interesting sabbatical, watching the news unfold but not being in a position to really formulate cogent thoughts about its many aspects.

The biggest rant on my current list is still Ronald Reagan's Eleventh Commandment: With so much fodder in the current Administration and its offshoots (i.e., Hillary and the rest of the Democrat party), why on earth do Republicans feel they have to bash each other in order to distinguish themselves from the field?!?!?!  This is so utterly foolish as to make me wonder if anyone really has the common sense (!) to realize how desperately we need to turn this country around, and how their sniping at each other does nothing to advance the narrative that we need to put out there. We have the talent and the understanding of what the vast majority of the American people want us to accomplish, so why not simply have each candidate lay out his/her plans and dreams and let the electorate do its job?

Mr. Trump, you are as guilty of this as anyone else in the current race who has taken a potshot at another contender.  And don't give me this "They attacked me first" malarkey.  All of you out there; If you want to be my President, then make changes and compromises to BE presidential.  I am not saying that you have to compromise your message and vision; far from it.  I want to be able to focus on exactly these things without all the static of name-calling and back-biting interfering with the meat of what you have to say to me.

Now, the rest of you who have been guilty of these violations of the Eleventh Commandment, I am not singling out Mr. Trump.  You know if this admonition applies to you, and you know what works the best for you to come back from the dark side of politics as usual and rise above the fray that the Democrat party loves to see us engage in.  If you really want to be part of the restoration of the nation that we all love, then don't play into the other side's hands.  Isn't it enough that their strongest candidate is virtually self-destructing on a day-by-day basis?  Hillary, Obama and the rest of their liberal-socialist ilk are our natural targets.  When we continually concentrate on telling the truth to the American population, even the mainstream media may be forced to report some of it as their darlings manifest their true colors.

Enough of the polite, "politic" ways of dealing with our true opponents.  The Democrats are attempting to transform this magnificent nation into just another third-world hell-hole (thank you, Anne Coulter!), and we MUST NOT LET THEM SUCCEED!  We must call them out for the self-seeking, cowardly and yes, evil people that they are, and we cannot stop doing this until we have convinced enough Americans to turn them out of office.  This is not flinging vitriol; this is truth-telling of the highest order, the kind that will make our Founders proud of us again.  We cannot be deterred by labels of racism, sexism, or any other kind of ism that is patently not true.  We must counter every such diatribe with facts, facts and more facts, until we beat the baiters back.

This will be a long, tough fight.  But when I look at the depth of the field of candidates we currently have, I know that we have the right stuff to take this fight to those who would destroy this country, and to win it in the name of the exceptional men and women who comprise our population.  Let us pray that the leaders of of our new revolution have the stamina that such a struggle will demand,

More soon (hopefully tomorrow)...
