Time for us to join in the beginnings offered up by a revolt of the folks in England, and environs, to GET OUT of the EU! We are not, of course, members of the EU...but we find ourselves facing the same "World Govt." attitude the "Lords-on-high" in Brussels obviously envisioned for the EU and eventually for everyone.
Barry (Mr. Zero) obviously spoke to help the anti-BREXIT folks.....thank GOD!!!! Everything Barry supports fails.....Good for us, bad for him.
Wonder if, at this point, the Nobel Committee is having 2nd thoughts about their premature-ejaculation of an award for this tin horn phony?
Trump needs to play this to the HILT! It is what is going. WE, as an electorate, are tired of the current admin, and equally tired of the do-nothing opposition of the GOP! No matter who you elect you get the same with mild changes.
Trump, and his rise is the perfect storm of opposition to all our political idiots-in-charge. This is the same thing, backed by such as the BREXIT vote, that will land Trump as our next President, even with his bumps, worts, and such!

Tinkers to Evers to Chance!
Not many who read this will even know what the headline refers to.....But it is pertinent!
The reference above is to a baseball play wherein three great players used to produce the double-play out in an inning.
The facts of my post dictate the communication involved....both immediate, and coordinated. Making a double play is NOT easy. It requires players who know what they are doing, and a recognition of the situation.
The reference is to the fact that we have many players today in the security of the people of this country. That series of players failed in the Orlando mass-killing. Guns WERE NOT THE PROBLEM! Communication was.
The Islamist Terrorist killer was both trained and ready to do his dastardly deed. He was born an Islamist. He was educated an Islamist. He was the product of two trips to Saudi Arabia....for purposes unknown...and DOES ANYONE NOTICE A PATTERN HERE???
Hie fellow employees OF A COMPANY WORKING FOR HOMELAND SECURITY.... Told their employers of his threats to "kill people", but the contractor, apparently wished to avoid conflict and the dreaded "political correctness", issue of doing anything about the threats and language ANY OTHER EMPLOYEE WOULD HAVE FOUND FODDER FOR DIS EMPLOYMENT did nothing!
His former wife told of beatings.
The FBI interviewed him three times.....twice in 2013 and a third time in 2014, but found cause to do anything....BUT...They also failed to alert the Orlando/Port St. Lucie Police of their investigation so the locals could have watched him.
The lack of communication found the basic cause of 911, and of the Oklahoma Bombing, remains in tact.
We, as a nation, need to make the security of our citizens prime!
It currently is not!

A Look Ahead!
Here we are folks......the year 2025. How amazing.....Just think back to those dark ages of the early teens in this century.
UPS and FEDEX, and The USPS, plus numerous other wanna-bees were still delivering their packages by pilot-flown airplanes. What a joke. Now we all know robot pilots are much more efficient, fly longer, with fewer mistakes, and for more years than the former "Live" models!
& How about that picture still in the older-folks mind of a truck, painted in the colors of their company, rolling up, and a bouncy delivery person bringing your boxes to the door....ANTIQUE!
I have not heard in some time of a problem with the neighborhood delivery vehicle stopping in the middle of a multi-block area, and drones dispatching in several directions to drop your package at the front door.
Most of this flashed through my mind as i sat by the back door waiting for the delivery-drone from my former drive-thru liquor store as it brought my delivery to the back porch steps (gotta keep some things from the neighbors ya know!)
I'm pretty pleased i do not even have to take the car to the dealer for servicing.....The robotic driver knows when it is time, and let;s my phone know it will be gone for three hours while driven to the service center and then returned.
Crap! Now I have to get to the door to welcome the little delivery-bot with my groceries. He makes a mess if i do not get the door open and allow him access to my pantry.
Oh well, life is hard, but robots help!

STOP THE INSANITY!!!!
That was the phrase of a weight loss guru in the 90s or thereabouts.....it applies to this year's Presidential race. The facts are this is like no Presidential election seen in decades!
The problem for me is that I see obfuscation, ignoring-the-facts, and a lot more from the media and the political parties. They are refusing to "re-frame" this election in to what it is....still trying to make this the samo-samo we have been subjected to for those decades.
THIS IS NEW TERRITORY FOLKS.......AND IT IS REAL!
The stalwart so-called conservative party, the GOP, has suddenly been forced to come face-to-face with a new leader. A leader they can neither control, nor ignore. Their dilemma, as folks who have been in charge for lo these many elections, is profound! They seem to be stuck at this point in the mode of trying to make the new "Trumpism" fit the party mold......IT DOES NOT! The "Trumpism" is the NEW GOP.....voters completely revolting against the GOP which first could not win, and then when they did, projected a DEM-Lite image of action.
In addition, there are millions of DEMs who are finding the Trump approach of "bomb them" to be fine as long as he follows thru on removing the old political norms.....the REAL problem!
Trump is not a miracle-man....he is the anti-Christ of politics. He represents the majority view, in my opinion, of less government, and less Washington in EVERYTHING!!!!!
We shall see how this plays out....but, one thing I know for sure....the old line DEMs and GOPs will fight for their territory any way they can......and that may well include the most stringent of the GOP placing a 3rd party candidate to sabotage Trump, just to give the election to Hillary and maintain, for this election cycle, the old line pols.
Time will tell....but, for me, Trump is the answer, flawed as it may be!

Confusion...But, not so much....Really!
The pundits, traditional party spokesmen, party apparatchiks, and many others are offering up all sorts of explanations/opinions/advice as to what IS for the 2016 election cycle.
It is almost comical to read their interpretations, and opinions.
The "almost" comes from a knowledge they are mostly missing the prime theme which will decide the election, and the future of this country...in my humble opinion!
The populace are DISGUSTED! That is, the open-minded, middle-of-the-road populace are DISGUSTED!
AND, they are the ones who will decide this election!
They will because the folks from bot the far right and far left are entrenched, permanent voters. Their vote will not be changed.....even if Trump did something dispicable or Hillary were to be indicted by a DEM-controlled DOJ (OK, here we take a break for the laughter to subside!).
This election is not decided. It is not close to being decided.
The sparks, and volumes of ads, opinions, etc. should be interesting, even as the old-line media and political pundits miss the mark right up til the election.

Obama heading toward "full-crash-mode" To End His Presidency
This President, and I use that term VERY loosely with Mr. Obama, is heading toward a critical mass of obliteration of his Presidency and seemingly enjoying either the idea of such, or he is oblivious to it. I believe it is the 2nd choice which prevails.
Obama has been a seeker of his own imagined success from the start of his ill-designed term. The world did not help when the now long-disparaged Nobel folks sent him further into never-never land with their "Peace Prize" for a President still in the diapers of presidential control.
Since that almost-frivolous escapade of liberal idiocy it has been a comedy of errors as Obama toured the world, acting the apologetic clown for his imagined "wrongs" committed by the USA on almost everyone!
Then he seemed to shift gears in his (WHAT THE HELL!) 2nd term and move to a state of driving the USA into a country of not apology, but instead, abandonment of any and all principles of what we have stood for for decades! The amazing thing, to me, is that the Democrat Party followed along, almost lock-step. Can they not see his efforts and the result of same?
I wonder now how the GOP can find a way to drop the Obama failures, and find a way to give Hillary the Presidency....much to the end of the actual GOP.....???

The Definition of Serious Is Heightened by Former ABSCAM FBI Agents Letter!
The facts are already know, at least partially, by most of the populace....
Now comes some support from the last BIG round of Govt. big shots snared in their lies and deceit.
This is SERIOUS!
Many, even in Washington, and given Obama's tusk-tusk, and the rest of the folks in Washington acting as if they all know the answer, but have no access to the investigation (contradiction here folks?????).......are adding fuel to the fire, not hosing it to silence!
This is monumental, and the results could be HUGE! Particularly if the rule of law is laughed at by Washington (Read....Obama, DOJ, etc.)
Soon we will know!
