"Many, many, many people" saw Obama being racist himself ...

 And “doing more to exacerbate racism” in the United States. ~Santorum

“Every time there was a controversy with someone of color involved, he took the side, many times, against the police,” Santorum said. “He did it over and over and over again. President Obama was to many people out there someone who could’ve brought this country together.”

Barbarians: How The Baby Boomers, Immigration, & Islam Screwed my Generation

By Lauren Southern

 

"The values that built the west have been forgotten. Instead, millennials have been raised to hold hedonism above all. Whatever feels good goes. Freedoms and rights are things for legislators and judges to conjure out of thin air, not precious traditions forged in the crucible of history. Most millennials reject the nuclear family, and the religious values, that our culture was built on because they resemble some sort of “unenlightened” old world of responsibility and duty that millennials want no part in."

What the Raiders can learn from the Las VegasGolden Knights

https://www.reviewjournal.com/opinion/opinion-columns/wayne-allyn-root/commentary-what-the-raiders-can-learn-from-the-golden-knights/

 

Let's ask a common-sense political question involving the Knights. Why does no one in the NHL … not one player … try to kneel during America’s national anthem? Could this be one of the reasons why Vegas fans have such a love affair with their Knights?

The Ant and the Grasshopper

The Ant and the Grasshopper

 

Great application of today's environment.

This one is a little different ....... 

Two Different Versions .... 

Two Different Morals

 

OLD VERSION: 

 

The  ant  works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. 

The  grasshopper  thinks the  ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. 

Come winter, the  ant  is warm and well fed. Thegrasshopper  has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

 

MORAL OF THE OLD STORY:

Be responsible for yourself!

 

MODERN VERSION:

The  ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. 

The  grasshopper  thinks the  ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

 

Come winter, the shivering  grasshopper  calls a press conference and demands to know why theant  should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving. 

 

CBS, NBC , ABC, MSNBC, PBS, CNN, and HLNshow up to provide pictures of the shiveringgrasshopper  next to a video of the  ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.  America is stunned by the sharp contrast.  How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor  grasshopper  is allowed to suffer so? 

 

Kermit the Frog  appears on  Oprah  with the  grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being  Green..'

ACORN  stages a demonstration in front of theant's  house where the news stations film the group singing,  We shall overcome.

Then  Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the  grasshopper's sake. 

 

The maim-stream media  condemns the  ant and blames  President Trump, President Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the  grasshopper’s  plight. 

 

Nancy Pelosi & Chuck Shumer  exclaim in an interview with    Chris Matthews & Brian Williams  that the  ant  has gotten rich off the back of the  grasshopper,  and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his "fair share". 

 

Finally, the  EEOC  drafts the  Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act  retroactive of course to the beginning of  the Summer. The  ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of  green bugs  and so having  nothing left to  pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government  Green  Czar  and given  to the  grasshopper.

 

The story ends as we see the  grasshopper  and his free-loading  friends finishing up the last bits of the  ant's  food while the government house he is  in, which, as you recall, just happens to be theant's  old house, crumbles around them because the  grasshopper  doesn't  maintain it. 

 

The  ant  has  disappeared in the snow, sadly never to be seen again. 

 

The  grasshopper  is found  dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over  by a gang of spiders who terrorize and ramshackle the once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood. 

 

The entire  Nation  collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it. 

 

MORAL OF THE STORY: 

Be careful how you vote in 2018 and 2020

The Umbrella - a touching story

THE UMBRELLA - A TOUCHING STORY 

 

On a rainy afternoon, a group of protesters were gathered outside the grocery store handing out pamphlets on the “evils” of America. I politely declined to take one. 

 

There was an elderly woman behind me and a young (20-ish) female protester offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined. 

 

The young protester gently put her hand on the old woman's shoulder and in a patronizing voice said, "Don't you care about the children of Iraq?" 

 

The old woman looked up at her and said: "Honey, my father died in France during World War II, I lost my husband in Korea , and a son in Vietnam.

 

"All three died so a naive, ignorant, self-centered bimbo like you could have the right to stand here and badmouth our country, and if you touch me again, I'll shove this umbrella up where the sun don't shine and open it."

 

 

This is so moving !!!!!!!!!!!!
