I DO NOT UNDERSTAND, PLEASE HELP!!!

Boy, did I say a mouthful! Folks, I’ve always relied on “COMMON SENSE” to help me make sense of problems which might arise in my world; but for the life of me, I’m at a complete loss when it comes to the positions the democrats are taking. They seem to be on the wrong side of any 75/25 issue. The country sees things one way while the democrats are not just out in left field….they are completely out of the stadium! How do they come up with statements like “we have to be prepared to take a bullet for our positions”? That might not be a direct quote but is damn close. They are really calling for violence instead of trying to communicate. They are attacking ICE OFFICERS in several states and calling on criminal gangs to rise up against the same officers of law and order.

They said for the entire Biden term that nothing could be done without new laws being put in place to stop the flow of illegal immigrants into our country. Funny how right after President Trump was elected it started to change almost from the second he took the oath! No new laws, nothing new except we got a new President. Funny how their claims were disproved! We have to get a handle on this immigrant issue as we are spending “COZILLION” dollars to support the immigrants. ICE is removing many of the “bad hombres”; but, because the sanctuary cities, counties and states are not complying or trying to help, the ICE officers are having to go into places of work and neighborhoods to find the criminals and are finding many more that need to be removed. If the leaders of these cities and such would comply and turn over the “bad hombres”, then the run of the mill immigrant would or could simply apply for permits. But, when an ICE officer finds someone here illegally, it his or her duty to detain for deportation. This makes it much harder on the immigrant who might be living a straight up life of work, school, paying taxes and trying to assimilate.

So, here goes nothing as I know many may not agree with me, but I am bound to try to offer up some “COMMON SENSE” SOLUTION TO AN AGE-OLD PROBLEM. Let’s look back a few years when the “Dreamers” were in the news almost on every broadcast. I believed then and still do today that if an immigrant has been in country for say 5/10 years or more, working, paying taxes, raising a family with kids in schools they should be treated differently than someone who came here under false pretense or snuck across as a “got away”! I am sure I have had contact with some of these of which I speak, and they are good people and should receive consideration for trying to assimilate into our culture. Congress. or the President. by EO should put in place a system where these people are safe. But, they must come out of the shadows and pay a small fine or something or someway to make them legal immigrants. If they are good workers trying to do things right, then they must receive some credit. If they fail to step up, then the problem is on them, and they should be treated accordingly.

It will not please everyone but we as Americans need to help those who wish to be a part of our great country and help by furnishing a system they can apply to, so as to become legal. After all, it only makes
“COMMON SENSE” that we stand for what we believe in and try to furnish a route to freedom for good people.

IS COMMON SENSE GONE?

If you were to listen to some of or most of the Democrats speak about America today and what they believe, you just might come to that conclusion! It seems they have lost touch with the voting public and Americans completely. If you have followed this blog for some time, you know of my opinion that they certainly have lost touch. They seem to be on the losing side of every issue and then wonder why they lost the election. I will give but a couple of issues; but, watch any cable news station and they will have Democrat leaders on spouting their beliefs and those beliefs have no basis in “COMMON SENSE” whatsoever!

Take the issue of “illegals” within our borders! It’s not that the Democrats want open borders with no deportation; but, they are also against deporting the illegals that are also committing crimes in our cities. They have forced their way into facilities which house these criminals trying to get them released back upon the innocent public. Even the Democratic congress people who surely should know better tried to enter thru a secure gate and abused the guards whose job it was to stop them. Even someone as plain minded as myself has enough common sense to know the guards will stop me. And, if I resist, then I might get ruffed up a bit and placed under arrest. DUH, COMMON SENSE! I LEARNED EARLY IN LIFE TO FOLLOW THE OFFICERS INSTRUCTIONS AND WE CAN DISCUSS THEIR MISTAKES LATER WHEN TEMPERS HAVE COOLED DOWN!

Now, let’s take a look at the latest Democrat mistake which is James Comey’s post of “8647” on the internet. IMHO, that was a mistake even though there have been many posts of similar material in the past. But, for him of all people to claim he was not aware of its meaning is nonsense at best and an outright falsehood at best! I must tell it like it is as “COMMON SENSE,” if you have any, will shout he is a liar! He of all people should be aware as he was the leader of the FBI for some time. I’m sure if we ask 100 FBI agents for the meaning of “86” well over 90% would admit its meaning while the other 10% would be lying to you. He himself, removed the post almost before anyone was able to view it so that should tell you he knew.

These are just a couple of issues where it seems many have lost touch with “COMMON SENSE” if in fact they ever had any in the beginning. Our schools are not teaching “critical thinking” as they have in the past with simple ideas starting early and continuing thru college. It is almost like the leaders are trying to keep people from having this ability; so, they, the leaders, can keep control of the masses.

Now, you have enough info to go investigate for yourself and form your own opinion. You do not and should not take my word for it but simply do your own research and see if you concur! That is what is great about our wonderful country as you can still think for yourself so go do it. After all, it only makes “COMMON SENSE” to do so.

THE DEMOCRATS SHOWED US ALL WHAT THEY REALLY BELIEVE !!!!!

Folks, I have for years tried to explain to you about the Democrats and their lack of “COMMON SENSE”. But, they did a better job than I could ever do simply by their performance last evening! The address to the Congress is a fairly long-standing event where the new President addresses the Congress on his policies. It is to advise the direction the President plans on trying to direct the country and to try to get support of all concerned. That did not happen as the Democrats hatred for the President over-rode their love of country and the promise to the folks who elected them to try to help our country move forward.

What I saw was a Democrat party deciding to refuse to listen to the President’s comments and to refuse to find common ground for the good of the country. They seemed dead set on trying not to do the job for which they were sent here to do. There were areas that I think the Democrats could have lent their support like when the President introduced some of his guest. The young man who dreamed of being a policeman was one. It touched me deeply when he hugged the neck of someone he had never met because even at his young age he recognized that the man was doing him a solid! Or even when the President recognized the families of the young women victims and renamed the game refuge along the Gulf of America in honor of the one from Texas. All in the house should have been on their feet to give approval to these things as it only makes “COMMON SENSE” and it is the American way!

As to policy differences, I must point out that we as Americans should be proud to have a President that wants to save lives by ending wars. I am surely behind him in trying to find peace between Russia and Ukraine. It will save lives on both sides and saving lives is always a good thing. I would not say I’m for either side; but, I, like President Trump, want to save lives. Why hell, as much as I dislike the “cartels” I would rather they listen to reason than to have to kill them. It seems the President just might have peace breaking out between these two as well as maybe finding a way forward with the Israel conflict with Hamas! He has made some remarks such as “all hell will break out” if Hamas continues to keep hostages. Let me explain what that means in “TEXAN” speak. It means we will kick your ass until your nose bleeds! Do you get my drift? It is kind of simple in that Russia and Ukraine need to come to the table for peace talks and that Hamas needs to get right and quickly!

I’m sorry for not keeping up with post on the site but felt America should make her choice, get things rolling, and then there would be time for me to express my two cents worth! I love posting; but, sometimes, I like everyone needs a little break but always know that I will come with “COMMON SENSE” solutions to any problem I tackle. Have a wonderful time as we now have a President who will do the same.

WHERE IS THE DEMOCRAT’S COMMON SENSE!!!

I swear, I’m trying hard to understand how the democrats think about the last election! And, I want to be respectful of such a landslide victory! I’m trying hard to see their viewpoint; but for the life of me, I am getting nowhere fast. The DNC, along with Harris/Walz, simply got there “butts whooped” but seemed that most of them do not realize that America has changed. Americans are concerned with their own needs first and if there are any leftovers then we will help others. Hey, that is what is meant by the saying, “America First”! The election was decided by the open borders deal and the economy of which inflation was a large part. These two aspects are certainly tied together as one feeds off of the other. With more people in the country, more demands have to be met in larger sales numbers. More people grabbing for fewer products equals inflation. That would to some extent be great if not for the fact that the government is funding all this with payouts to the “illegals” which in turns means you and I are fronting the bill thru taxes.

President elect Trump has stated he will remove these “illegals” and deport them as quickly as possible. He has set sail on naming his cabinet with people of like minds. And what have the democrats decided to do? They have decided to fight him anyway possible to hinder the deportations. Now, let me ask you, how does that make any COMMON SENSE as you just got a “BUTT WHOOPING” and the democrat’s fronting for the “illegals” was one of the main reasons for that whooping! The people just got thru telling you they think the country was on the wrong track, which the immigrant deal was a part of the problem, and you want to support the immigrants instead of supporting America. Now, I’ve never claimed to be a really intelligent person; but, I do have a bit of common sense which tells me they just did not learn anything from the election. To my way of thinking, you have to be dumber than a stump to not see the problem you folks caused and how America said no to you and yours! But, I have been told by many that I am barking up the wrong tree to argue with a democrat as they just simply do not have the common sense gene that I, by arguing, assume they have! Tell me what you think!

Hopefully, President elect Trump will surround himself with smart people that will allow him to correct the immigrant problem and at the same time reduce the inflation rate of goods/services! One way to do so is to, “DRILL BABY DRILL” to reduce the price of transportation that has been added. It starts with the farmer and his fuel cost, and affects the delivery of his crops to the distributor, then with fuel cost to the warehouses, then to the stores, and even to the cost of fuel for you to shop the stores. It affects the cost of all goods and services! Even to the guy buying fuel for his machines to mow your grass and the fuel for him to show up. It is all in a chain that pushed prices upward!

So, let’s all contact our representatives we sent to DC to do our bidding and tell them we support the new administration. After all, it only makes COMMON SENSE to do so as they work for us! It is time that they realize that fact; so, do your part and let them know your feelings.

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!!!!!

Yes, the people have spoken and spoken loudly! I was one of the few that was predicting a landslide victory for Trump simply due to “COMMON SENSE”! As I looked at the policies of the Biden/Harris term and Harris saying, “she could not think of a thing she might do differently”, it seemed to me that America would turn away from the direction or track we were on. I voiced this to liberals and conservatives alike with not many agreeing with me. The liberals simply laughed at me while the conservatives, all the while wishing it to be, were afraid to voice that opinion. It is ironic that the “VIEW” is where Harris expressed that view and was probably the biggest factor in her losing the election. It is not often you will find me thanking the view; but, in this case, thanks for that question.

And just in case you did not already know of my leanings, they are to the conservative side. I knew all along that America would reject “WOKE-ISM” at some point and felt we had reached that point earlier in the Biden/Harris term. Harris simply made some bad choices–one of which was her choice of Walz as a running mate. He is not the “Macho Man” image which America seems to lean toward. And this was proven out by the women that helped the Trump/Vance ticket win. And while on the mention of Vance, I feel he may be setting up for a run himself with the way he has presented himself. I watched several of his interviews in hostile territory and he handled the situations quite well. He is well educated, can think on his feet and is most certainly a conservative voice for the future.

It seems to me, that the Democratic party is completely out of touch with the mainstream American ideas. And they seemed to misrepresent the conservative views on most issues. Let us take the view on abortion as an example. They, Harris, the DNC, and the media kept saying that the Supreme Court had taken away that right; when, it simply returned that decision to the states. And as a refresher, let me point out that abortion is not mentioned in the Constitution! But what is mentioned is that if it is not mentioned then the right automatically falls to states’ rights. It should have never been decided on a federal level in the first place. Don’t misunderstand that most conservatives, like myself, are pro-life. It is a long-time stance for me, and I am not ashamed to make the stand.

It seems we, as conservatives, may retain control of the house while we already have won the White House and the Senate. Hopefully, we can complete the sweep as it will help install the wishes expressed by this election. It will simply make it easier to undo some things and to institute new policies which will “Make America Great Again”! Things like supporting our allies, closing our open borders and trying our best to end the destruction of wars everywhere. We have already seen Hamas wanting to talk more about an end to that war; and, we have seen a caravan coming from the south start to fall apart. This has happened since the election last Tuesday. Good things have already started to happen and the new President is not even in office yet!

The only thing that the country will have to worry about now is another death threat on Trump. As one has just been uncovered with links to Iran. It will be all important to step up the protection forces for both President elect Trump and VP elect J.D. Vance. IMHO, there are forces from outside of our country as well as from within that must be squashed that wish them harm. Remember, we are all Americans, and all should want them protected as it only makes “COMMON SENSE” to do so.

DEMOCRACTS, LISTEN UP!!!!!

The democrats took a huge hit last evening! It proved what most knew but the democrats and the media would not or could not hear! They continued to push Biden all the while knowing he was in steep decline! Did you notice that they, the democrat pundits, all had the same “talking points” ready the minute the debate ended. Hardly a dissenter among them. What should this tell you! If you simply use a little “COMMON SENSE” it should point you to a simple fact! This was a show simply to try to replace Biden at the head of the ticket.

They all had their “talking points” in place and all knew what to say the moment the debate ended. The DNC power structure had decided to try to replace Biden before the debate but decided to wait and use his performance as an excuse to try to move forward. Trump, IMHO, did not have a great night but the fix was in place. The moderators of the debate, Trump haters, went easy on Trump and gave him several chances on several questions. They were not negative toward Trump although they truly hate him. This was part of the fix! They were instructed to do so and offered not real help to Biden. Any other time they would have been beating up on Trump and playing nice with Biden. But like I said the power structure within the Democratic Party had already instructed them and they followed their orders.

We will have to endure several days or weeks of them “making believe” that they really hate to but they will try to replace Biden after they connivence him to step down. It will be quite a show! But who will they try to replace him with is the next question. I’m sure that has already been decided but they will have to be “fair, don’t you know”! They will entertain several candidates although they have already decided who to install. It is not a sure thing so they will have to be careful not to show their hand. It can all come tumbling down if Biden gets “hard-nosed” and stubborn in the process. If he refuses to step aside then their plan will fall apart.

It is a shame that they have allowed Biden to get this far but they were hoping they could push him thru but his performance last evening put a stop to that plan. I really do not know who they have waiting in the wings. Could it be Newsom, Hillary or whoever.

This brings us to the “DEMOCRATS LISTEN, UP” part. IMHO, they should have a long talk with RFK, Jr. as he has about 15% in the polls so if you add the approximate 45% that the democrats always get in the polls you get 60% in the polls. I know, and you know, the numbers will not work out exactly but will come close. So, there you have it, democrats, listen up and talk to him as he might be your best bet! But he may tell them to take a hike after the way the DNC has handled him so far. It may work out best for both the party and Jr. to have this conversation! After all it only makes “COMMON SENSE”! Let me know what you think!

THE TRUMP TRAIN RIDES AGAIN!!!!!

Well, here he comes again folks! He showed up on CNN for a Town Hall meeting in New Hampshire and was in his regular form. He sat for about an hour and answered many questions from the public and did a fair country job. No notes or help from the teleprompter whatsoever. He did take the bait that the commentator threw his way about the 2020 election which he should have passed on. He should have simply said, it is what it is, and is in the past and let’s talk about the upcoming election. But alas, he just can’t help himself and has to always be the center of attention.

He should have simply moved on and told her and the public he was there to talk about how he might help the average American family in the future. And, continue with that line of attack all the way until he is either elected once again or “put out to pasture”. But Trump being Trump, he always wants conflict, and he seeks it out. There is something in his makeup that causes this; so, although he did a good job running the country, and IMHO will do so again, he just can’t help himself and it does turn a lot of people off. He has always been confrontational and always will be.

He was correct in that remark about Putin being a war criminal which IMHO he is but it is a negotiating tactic not to call him one at this time. He wants to try to negotiate an end to the war; and, it makes it harder if you are bad mouthing Putin. He said he would end the war in 24 hours meaning he will get a “cease fire” then an agreement from both sides once the “cease fire” is in place. I think!

He will also bring back the wait in Mexico deal, which this administration did away with, to help the crisis at the border. The best thing the public can do is to listen to what the border agents tell everyone who will listen. They say it was much better under President Trump to control the flow of illegals. The news media in many cases does not publicize that fact because they are corrupt and do not give fair and true news. The flow of illegals was much, much lower under President Trump than it is now. That is simply a fact and it shows the stupidity of this administration for not keeping what was working in place.

He also made a great point about what he will do about the high energy and inflation of everything when he said, “drill baby drill”! If you remember, one of the first moves Biden made was to restrict oil production which drove up gas prices. It also drove up diesel prices which is the fuel needed to plow the fields, to produce food, and also to deliver it to your local grocery store. It is also the way your clothes are delivered to the department store and all other products are delivered with the same fuel pushing the inflation to record levels.

Folks, I can’t say if I would like him personally or not. But, if he could simply reduce the price of energy, he could help every American family; and from that standpoint, I’m all for him. We need to get this country flowing again and it all started with the “automobile revolution” and energy is still one of the most important products produced in this country. It is what America runs on and never forget it is what produces all that food that draws your “fat ass” to the dinner table every night. o vote accordingly. After all it only makes “COMMON SENSE” to do so.

FIRST THINGS FIRST !!!!!

As I watched the last debate and since then, I’ve been struck by Hillary, the head of the “CCM”, and her judgment or prioritization of the problems which we as Americans face today.  She seemed to think that the mentioning of what MIGHT have been said (it is not documented) toward a beauty contestant is worth wasting time on in the first national debate.  Are there not more important things or problems to discuss?  Things like terrorism, taxes, immigration and the rebuilding and education of the inner cities and its inhabitants.  She is such a partisan hack that she cannot see “the forest for all the trees”.  She wasted the Americans time on such stupid nonsense.  Why would I or anyone care what someone called someone else?  She is as bad as all the college students who want “SAFE ZONES” from words that may hurt their feelings.  I’ll give them a feeling, my “foot in their ass”.

The lady in question was asked to confirm the accusation on TV and she would not do so.  That tells me it is another of the lies formulated by Hillary and the lame stream media.  Remember, this was tried earlier about the women “Trump” had dated and the “Times” misquoted each and every one of them.  They all came forward and said that what was reported by the “Times” was false; and, they never said anything close to what was reported.  The media of today cannot be trusted, just like Hillary cannot be trusted.  Let me ask you this: “If, I, or yourself, have a leaky roof and you find a guy who can fix it. Do you really care what he might have called someone 20 years ago?”  Yes, 20 years ago!  It just shows she and the democrats are deflecting; because, they do not want to discuss the issues.  I could never “run for office” because I have called people names in the past; and in some cases, have “kicked the crap” out of some.  Not proud of that, but it is the truth. And if someone wanted to read the “newspapers”, they would find out the “who and what” I ran with years ago. So, I guess you would rather put a pot under the leak than have me fix it.  Strange, at best, way to approach a problem.

Trump, should very quickly, in the next debate point out all the things “Hillary” called all the women that “Billary” had affairs with such as “Bimbos and Trailer Trash”.  He should then advise her that he would like to move forward discussing how to solve problems for Americans, and that he hoped she would join him and refrain from the personal attacks.  That would also be advisable for the news hack Lester Holt.  He went after “Trump” several times and never mentioned the E-Mail scandal or the “Clinton Foundation”.  And he calls himself a “journalist”!!!!!  What a joke!  The “Donald” needs to expect this type of bias in the future debates and simply answer the question short and sweet, and I do mean short, then pivot to an attack on Hillary and her record.  No personal attacks unless she gets out of line; and then, and only then, “all bets are off ” so go for the jugular.

For years, the democrats have “brought a gun to a knife fight” while the republicans have brought a needle.  This is the reason the republicans have always had a hard time in elections.  They always want to save the other person’s feelings.  The hell with their feelings–as this is war!  If they bring a gun, then the republicans need to bring a “cannon”.  Folks, this only makes “COMMON SENSE” and it is high time for the republicans to “throw caution to the winds” and go after these “sorry-ass liberals” with everything in their arsenal.  The republicans have finally found such a man, in Trump; and, a lot of the leaders, who have failed in the past, think he is a bit boorish.  “TO HELL WITH YOU LOSERS”, get out of his way and let him “drag you, kicking and screaming across the finish line” to victory.  Yes, victory in November as it only makes “COMMON SENSE” to do so.
