ON TO THE FUTURE

by

(OR: INTENSE HISTORY CAN HELP PROJECT THE FUTURE.)

    Your Rooster and his side kick Winston try to avoid the prediction business, but sometimes the motivation is just too great.   Warlocks are supposed to do that, but normal average humans are not.   Well, here is proof that Rooster is not the latter.

All of us have visions, especially at sleep.  They can be wonderful or very scary.  This one occurred while wide awake.  Rooster was thinking deeply about what will happen in Europe in the foreseeable future.  Remember his knowledge of history is intense.  He spends all leisure time reading and reviewing history.  His books and articles are based on knowledge gained from History.   Here is what his common sense revealed.  He knows Muslims will not assimilate. They will always push the envelope.

The worst Global war, the earth has ever experienced will start in France or Germany.  Probably France. This will be within the next 60 years.  It will be between Muslims and everyone else.  It will start with local terrorism resulting in Mosques and Churches being targets. This violence, including large death counts, will escalate out of the control of the civil authorities.  The bigger the church or Mosque the bigger the target.  Notre Dame in Paris will be one of the first damaged.  Distant countries will be drawn in as time passes by.

The Muslims have already created safe havens for themselves and from them they will cut, burn, and slash anything that is not Muslim. The distinction between a non- aggressive Muslim and a Warrior Muslim will not be relevant.  The Christians will be weak.  (Right now few attend Churches in Europe, as a result of the progressive attacks on religion.),  however,  there are enough to strike back and this they will do.  Gun control will vanish.  What the warriors cannot immediately produce they will steal.  No quarter will be spared.  The worse the attack the worse the response.  The non-Muslims will retreat from around the Safe zones and try to find protection in outlying areas.  This will allow the Muslims to gain initial ground and support.  This war will not be of great armies and navies.  It will be of small groups attacking and defending.

The non-Muslims will be further weakened by the secularists, diverse religions, and the interference of the inept progressive governments. The E.U. will be shambles.  As the civil strife turns into street combat, trade and commerce will be turned down to a trickle.  Marauding bands of people, trying to feed themselves, will become common place.  The military, as in so many times in history, will stay together but not be too effective. Remember this is combat street by street and building by building.  Armies are not much better than a mob in street warfare.  Especially true,  when they are having trouble feeding themselves.

The chaos will spread into every major city and suburb.  The Christian Serbs, Lebanese, Armenians, and especially all those left dead on the sands of the Middle East so long ago, will stand as symbols to the new warriors. .  The Christian Crusaders astride their great horses, with their flags flying in the wind will give salute to all those who have died trying to stop Muslim hordes.   This battle is 466 years old.

The dye will be cast. It will be kill or be killed.  Do not fool yourself that super weapons will save the day.  First, the sides are blurred.  Second, as the infrastructure can not be maintained, there will be little to no social media, and drones and planes do not work well when not fed and the electricity stops.  Large navies will be little more than hospitals. In the mix the howl and cry of the welfare recipients will simply  be a nuisance.  This is the case with all, except the Muslims who have for years worked the welfare state to their advantage.   They will accept it and try to kill because of its lack.

The historical forecast is that when and if the non-Muslim gets their act together they will win.  They make superior soldiers.  The “however”, is that will not happen until a stabilizing force enters the chaos, and provides a platform to work from.  There are many web sites that describe the millions of Muslims who live all over Europe. They thin out as you go north east in Europe.  The stabilizing force will not be the smaller countries, but will be  Russia.  It will be the biggest Bear in the forest.  Its strategy will be to feed and arm the non-Muslim and starve the latter.

Muslims believe chaos is the prelude to the whole world being Muslim.  Because of this they will fight like a blind pig trying to get out of an enclosure.  It will be crash here, charge there, and ultimately be killed.  The very deep divisions in the Muslim belief system will also assist the other side.  Indonesia and Asia will not escape this chaos.  America might if it is common sense led, but that is a different story.

Once again the world will weep, bleed, and die because of common sense failure.

The Rooster sincerely hopes the vision is wrong.

PROGRESSIVES & VOO DOO

by

(OR: Blank stares and open mouths of the average Democrat.)

          As a historian and musician of New Orleans Music, Rooster has become very familiar with Voo Doo.  In fact his very liberal mother used to be a fervent fan of the stuff and claimed to her dying day that she was abducted by Aliens.  Fortunately Rooster was not an eye witness.  Winston understands.

Over the years debating progressives, and observing them whenever they can be identified, their general lack of common sense, denial of history, and miss-use of logic creates the same impression as someone under a Voo Doo Charm.    Watch the selected crowd behind Ms. Clinton, at any of her “rallies”, and look intently into their faces.   Watch for reaction based on what she says.  It really hit home a  couple of weeks ago when she  said she would raise taxes on the middle class and the faces of her backdrop, broke out in smiles and loud hurray’s.    Assuming they thought of themselves as middle class, they just took a hell of a punch from her. They were ecstatic about it.  Brain dead was Roosters thought.  Zombies came to mind. Mindless robots floated about as well.

Not all Conservatives are spot on, but it does seem that the majority of the progressive membership are beyond hope.  If Hillary says jump off the Tallahassee Bridge most probably would.

There is a story going around that Hillary said, on tape and in person something to the effect “Look the average Democrat voter is just plain stupid.  They’re easy to manipulate. That’s the easy part.”  It is denied and Snopes et al says it is not true.  We will have to accept it as fiction until further E mails are uncovered.  The point is, the way she acts, you certainly can hear her saying those words at some time in her varied past, just as she laughed at getting a rapist off a case she defended, as a young lawyer.   It is just the kind of thing common sense people believe she believes.  She has the same Voo Doo charm on her followers that any of the best Voo Doo Queens ever did down in good ole New Orleans.  One would think her faithful have been sprayed with  juice of an evil snake that makes you forget to hear what you hear, and see what you see.  Bells and spangles add to the spell.   Do we have a political Marie Laveau reincarnated?

Nothing can be done about this in time for the next election, but if she does not win, then surely we must pass an amendment that demands voter ID and a basic knowledge of the political system.  Maybe everyone should have to take a class and pass it to be able to vote.  You do to drive.  Bad voting is much more dangerous. We must find a way to control voting so that it is meaningful and not full of superstition and blind faith healing.  The lack of it is what has been pulling us down.

TWO BIG PROGRESSIVE FAILURES : PAST AND PRESENT

by

1 Comment

(OR: Liberal failure in Alcohol and Drugs is amazing.)

Rooster does not want to repeat the socialist failures such as the Mayflower compact, Russia, Cuba, Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, and so on. He wants to point his talon to a dramatic U.S. socialist plan which failed, and one that is failing before our eyes. No he is not talking about the chaotic failure in the ghettos of their welfare state, or the present collapse of Obama Care. What he wants to discuss with you is much more certain. These two were caused by the same socialist zeal. The first failure was the Progressive’s laws to make every citizen stop drinking alcohol. It was started by the eternal progressives of Maine.. By Jan. 1855 there were 13 States which forbid liquor. This culminated in the passage of the 18th amendment. (See comparison time table). Its passage was assisted by the first real progressive president, Woodrow Wilson. At first he vetoed the act to implement the amendment (Volstead Act). This was to make him look good to the troops in WW 1. He knew it would pass over his veto.

It did, in both houses primarily because it was the peoples will. The legislatures really had no choice. They had to implement the amendment. The Amendment became effective in Wilson’s last year 1920. The only people who pushed this amendment were socialist type liberals. They came in many disguises, such as the Anti saloon League, the National Prohibition Party, etc. Their primary argument was it will be better for everyone, (unless you worked in a brewery or really enjoyed a brew or cold glass of wine after work.) Now let’s analyze what happened from a common sense stand point. That is the issue. The number who voted for this amendment listened to all the good things it would cause and did not use their common sense. This is typical liberal Promise good times and health, and lie through your teeth. If not lying then its plain stupid. Just using common sense, we know the world, has had booze since we learned how. In fact some say cities only grew to protect the beer and wine from others. History tells us the human likes this stuff. The “Like” is so large and so persuasive common sense says you cannot get rid of it. You can treat it, but you cannot erase it off the face of the earth. Common sense also tells you that no one country could do it alone. Think of all the other country producers, and their helpers like the Kennedy Family, who would rum-run so to speak. They did in huge numbers. A “Still” is easy to make and so they sprung up all over the country. The crime it all created is mind boggling. The cost to try to make it effective was horrible, especially after we had already lost so much in WW 1. It was a losing battle and many people helped prove it. If you cannot see the logic and the future with common sense, then you are a liberal. All of the pain and suffering and financial loss incurred by this stupid amendment finally came to an end with the 21st amendment in 1933. 13 years of torment and damage. The Second clear example of liberal’s failure to use common sense was the simultaneous development of our current drug system. It did not come as a command of the people (amendment). It came in Federal Legislation. It was, driven by the same supporters of the 18th. A common time table is helpful. 18th Amendment Drug enforcement law.
Jan 1855: 13 states go dry. Maine first
1869 & 1893: Prohibition Party, Anti Saloon League.
1914: Fed Narcotics Control Board created, outlawing Opiates, cocaine
1917: Amendment proposed to States. .
1919: Amendment is certified: Volstead Act
1920: 18th Amendment is law. 1933 undone by 21st.
1930: Name changed to Fed. Bu. of Narcotics then DEA and then FDA in 1988

The above time line shows that the first try at control was “alcohol”. Embolden by success the progressive’s added narcotics to the battle to regulate all lives in America. The individual liberty of choice, which had existed at least from 1787 to 1914. (Plus the Colonial years.) was to be forbidden, by the do-gooder socialists types. In the South the favorite exit drink was Laudanum, which had its origins in Greece. It is a combination of Opium and alcohol with various flavors such as sugar, cinnamon, anisettes and others. When it was in its weakest form it was codeine and a variation of that was used in the early Coca Cola. Even alcohol in its strongest form is lethal. Please understand, the world was not killing itself with drugs. It was not an epidemic. In fact the primary reason Congress gave its consent was for new taxes. Progressive ideas to control you and the desire by legislatures for money is a lethal mix. Not all the failures of common sense are easily apparent. With the advent of beer and wine and all its variants, which probably started at the dawn of civilization the world population has increased, not decreased. We have become over populated. Man also found narcotics in plants early on, yet it has only affected a few. Common sense sees the future and knows. If you attempt to deregulate sex you will fail, if you try to stop prostitution you will fail, if you try to stop alcohol you will fail, and if government tries to stop drugs it will fail. The human being will not be stopped from doing what may or may not be harmful. Helping the fallen makes common sense. If progressives had not outlawed narcotics, but only attempted to regulate them what would have happened? Well the failure of the 18th, to stop Alcohol, gives us a clue. Nothing worse happened. Addiction and overuse were limited. Has DUI legislation stopped drunken drivers accidents? Of course not. Common sense tells you intense education would do better. Compare the cost of trying to stop these things to the cost of a soft bed for those who fail. We are talking trillions of dollars vs. millions. Hospitals, rehabs, and ½ way houses are so much cheaper and peaceful. Homicides have been much more prevalent now than before regulation. How many lives are lost each year because gangs continue to sell to those who want. Yes regulate drugs for purity, but make them available. Without prescription. If you do the jails will be empty, drug lords in your neighborhood and all around the world will have to find legitimate jobs. Most important the allure of the forbidden will vanish. In a free to choose world common sense tells us warnings on labels will have a much better effect. Teaching in our schools could be tailored to assist and life will be better. Not so in the progressive world of control. Mistakes abound, blinders continue to obscure vision. Blind Faith in Government is the worst of all.

LIBERALS UNDOING

by

(OR: The Secret weapon invented by Bill Gates.)

Rooster has told you many times that the typical liberal is short circuited on common sense. The liberal leader knows 1/3 of all voters, for various reasons, will do and believe what they hear from their leaders. This means lying is or was an easy tool. In the Obama years it has been a well-used weapon. Hillary is a part of the same routine. Winston pleads not to hear a never ending list of these lies. If you pay attention you know more than you need. Ever since Woodrow Wilson, liberal presidents have lied big time to the voters. Both he and FDR lied about going to war with Germany which was no small deal. Both World Wars, were catastrophic to everyone. The financial losses are still affecting much of the world. Something has changed which no one is talking about and most have not even thought about. It came to Rooster when he analyzed the supposed birth certificate of Obama so many years ago. The conclusion is beginning to blossom big time. Rooster’s most important observation, of that certificate, was the stupidity of whoever prepared it. Besides being filled with language mistakes (words that were not used then) the most

telling was that it was typed with an IBM Selectric typewriter which did not come out until later in that year. Common sense was AWOL on roll call. However it is to be expected when Liberals get together. But what is that Something that is changing the landscape? Another great example of its application is on radio and TV shows. It has been getting better and better. You know how quickly they are able to retrieve and play events of the past. The cataloguing and ability to retrieve is huge. A master at its use is Rush Limbaugh. To make a point he will go back in time and pull together snippets of history and display them for you. His Montage of what other news commentators are saying is typical. The something is data and its storage. Thank you Bill Gates and all the rest who have made this possible. For years the lies were told and then hidden by the passage of time. Only a very few were smart enough to remember and most of them had no platform to remind us. Therefore the lie well told and stuck to worked. That is beginning to fall apart and as it does the lie merchants are being exposed. 15 years ago Hillary’s many lies on Bengasi, the FBI, her E mails and etc. would never have had the impact they have today. Now by a push of a few buttons her actual statements and her picture can be broadcast over and over again. For a person like Obama and Hillary this is disaster. You can rest assured Obama’s library will not have a section of his most famous lies and how he got away with them, but that information is available somewhere. History is now immediately available in living color and sound. Today it is very possible to expose any lie. The cell phone is doing a good job even in police conduct. The police have had to resort to counter measures such as cameras on their person. Cameras are at the intersection near your home. Every commercial area is covered with security cameras. Even love affairs are down. Only those with common sense deficiency will take their lover into a hotel or motel, unless of course they want to be exposed. Smile your on candid camera. We should all wonder where it is going. Will the lie become limited to the white variety, or will, even that, fall away by disclosures? We shall see.

CONVENTION OVERLOAD.

by

(OR: Now that it’s over, over there, what’s next?)

            With the close of the disjointed Democrat convention we can finally say it is a Party well divided and Socialist.  Their title should be Socialist/ Democrat.  Both parties did move to the left which means there is room for a truly Constitutional/conservative party, to provide a home for those who feel neither party represents them.  The very left parties have essentially been run over by the Democrat/Socialist party.  Of course the Democrat party will not voluntarily change its name, so the GOP and others should do it for them.  If truth in labeling means anything then the new name is necessary. The increase interest in the minor parties has been small.

With the final act of the Democrat convention over it was time to return the USA flags to the local court house. These are the ones they borrowed after pundits pointed out none existed on the speaker platform.  Somehow Rooster missed the National Anthem.  Wasserman has been seen clearing her desk and looking into moving into Ms. Hilda’s digs.  You do remember this awful women don’t you.  She was the Chair of the Democrats until the day before the convention opened.  It was not just the exposure of the DNC’s e-mails that did it.  She was wildly disliked as a self-centered egotist.  This translated into there being no friends to defend her.  So the Party lost its commanding general and its camps split into at least two parts.  Very left and not so left and its Flags borrowed.  The conventions choice of speakers left Roster shaking his head. In a time of Jihad attacks worldwide, why would they put up a Muslim couple for any reason.  It was bound to be corrupted and it was.  The dead son was a long time member of the Muslim Brotherhood and not one who believed in the Constitution.   The failure to balance the speaking parents of the dead police as well as the non- police was stupid.  Common sense was lacking, and Winston believes Wasserman’s touch was still there.

The main speeches were as expected.   Bill Clinton, not only fell asleep, at the wrong time, but his speech was a bunch of lies.  About the only true thing he said about Hillary was that he was married to her.  If she loses you can expect to see a separation or divorce.  While he was telling us how good she would be, all Rooster could think about was the Blond honey who frequents their home in Chappaqua when Ms. Hilda is out and about.  It must be something in the water in Chappaqua that causes  Democrat men to cheat.

The speeches by both Obama’s were milk and honey and not true.  Someone took the time to count how many times Barry talked about himself.   It was 119.  The egos of all of them are really remarkable.  They are much more pronounced than those of the run of the mill politician.

With all the boos and Black Lives matter shouted from  the floor, the obvious split by the very left and those left, tells us the party will not attract all of its base to get off their duffs and vote.  MS Hilda, to the average person, is not someone you want to lead you into battle. I doubt if she could even mount a horse.  She now will take her bus and go from staged event to staged event.   There will be no spontaneity.   If the poles show her well behind by the debates do not be surprised to see a cancellation because of some contrived disagreement, or illness.

On the other side, expect to see Trump gain strength, if he simply stays the New York street fighter he is.  He will have to spend time in those marginal states, but it will be time well spent.   He needs to marshal the black vote and the Hispanic vote.  If he just improves a few percentage points it will be tremendous.  His best approach is to assemble men and women of both ethnicities who in turn will champion ONE AMERICA WHERE ALL LIVES MATTER. Let them go forth.  The results will be very good.

A final observation is that in the Democrat/socialist party,  lying and avoiding the truth  is normal.  This  common sense failure works for others with the same disability, but  a lot of people are paying attention. They are thinking,  even if it is  for the first time.  What this tells us is that in every society at least 1/3 are so disabled in their common sense, they cannot see through a lie.   If you tell them you can sell them the Golden Gate Bridge, most of that 1/3 will believe it.  Rooster predicts that the Democrat party will keep most of its base of 1/3.  The GOP will keep all of its.  The middle 1/3 will mostly go to Trump.

Ms. Hillary also now must weather more FBI investigations and new releases of E mails of the DNC and her server.   It ain’t over till it’s over.

POLITICAL CORERECTNESS IS?

by

(OR:  Where did these chains come from?)

       Clint Eastwood, at 86, is still working full time, is alert and said the following in an interview just the other day.

“ …everybody’s getting tired of political correctness, kissing up. That’,s

the kiss-ass generation were in. Right now, we’re really

in a pussy generation…when I grew up, those things weren’t  called

Racists.”

He is right. Rooster knows what happened between the 50s and now. Then, in general conversation you called an ace and ace.  You were expected to be honest to a fault.  Today you are pounced on as insensitive and a crude  unthinking person or worse a  racist, etc.  Did you ever wonder how we got from honest differences, to insults?

In high school and college Rooster loved to debate, not in the formal arena, but in the political arena.  He took his time to find a liberal who was willing to debate. He would offer to buy a cup of coffee, relax, and go for it.   It was always hard to find the willing liberal.   When he did the conversation was always on the demerits of Socialism and the merits of a Republic.  Rooster had a list of failed socialism experiments.   It was never a debate he could lose because history was on his side.  In those early years the liberal would become frustrated and irritated.  One of the easiest responses was to tell Rooster his evidence never happened. When Rooster would persist, the Liberal would get up and leave.  Maybe once or twice the liberal would want to think about it.  Some resorted to expletives and table thumping.  Not one, Rooster can recall, ever conceded history was right

As time moved on the denial, the short burst of anger etc simply did not work effectively.  The liberal was looking for a new response which would destroy the debate.  He and she found it in the denial, followed by a statement which insulted the debater and deflected the subject matter.  This was effective.   Call the debater a bigot, or a racists etc. and suddenly the Debater and the debate were over.  You see the insult turns a historical debate into a personal slur of character.   The subject has been changed and the liberal does not have to admit they are wrong.  Once the deflect, occurred the main subject could never be brought back.  When Rooster tried, the liberal would simply repeat the insult and leave.

The insult and refusal to debate honestly became the liberal’s main tool.   Oh, do not forget  that the slur was a lie.   The good liberal will easily use the lie, with the belief no one can catch them.  It is difficult for the object of the slur to defend himself. A denial does not go very far.   Times are changing and the electronic data world is exposing the liberal lies.  The DNC tapes is just a tiny part of it. Will it be enough before it is too late?

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE

by

1 Comment

(OR: TUMPS BATTLE CRY.)

            The response “What difference does it make” is a great example of common sense (CD) deficiency.   When Hillary used it in response to a question in the Bengasi hearings her stupidity stood out like a sore thumb.  Think about it.  If you and someone are having a serious discussion and you make a point and the other person’s response is “What difference…et cet” Your intelligence has just been insulted.    Of course it makes a difference, ,Sweet heart, because we are discussing it.  Had Rooster been on the committee he would have made an immediate response something like this,:

All right Hillary I’ll tell you what difference it makes.  Had you used CS you would have pulled the ambassador and staff out of that dangerous place. Obviously you did not recognize it as dangerous.   Britain and other countries did,.  Failing that you received requests for more security and still you failed the CS test and did nothing. Had you even directed the construction of a good safe room it would have made a big difference.  You did not, and probably did not even know there was such a thing. Once you received notice of the attack,  you should have pushed all the red buttons at your disposal and sent every asset we had.  Our people received orders to stand down.   You did not and because you did none of these basic things your employee Christopher Steven was brutally tortured and murdered including having his private parts destroyed.  Your employee Sean Smith also died and two CIA volunteers gave up their lives and were blown to death by mortars that just happened to be there.  It was not just the 4 , you let down.  It was their wife’s, sweethearts, children and families in general.  Mothers lost their child, and Fathers now weep over their lost sons.   This must not happen again.  This is what difference it makes.  Furthermore, we must not allow our Government to then make up a lie to cover-up their common sense failure.  This too makes a big difference, Ms Hillary.   A really big difference.

This event, this phrase can and should make a great battle cry for Donald Trump.  Let’s say the issue is free trade vs controlled trade.   What he should say, is something like this.  Ms. Hillary is for open borders and free trade, I am not.  I will tell you what difference it makes.  My view will make for more security for every family in their home. Ms. Hillary’s does not.   My view makes for more secure jobs and more of them.  Ms Hillary’s does not.  My position means we will be able to kick out the bad guys and reduce internal   terror attacks.  Ms. Hillary’s does not.  My position means we can attract many of our business back which will create more income, more prosperity and more security.  Ms.  Hillary’s does not.   That is the difference.  That is what a difference it makes.

On every issue he should repeat this phrase over and over again.  If there is a debate between the two he should smother her with that stupid statement.  But then Rooster is not there and his help is not solicited.  Too bad.

HILEXIT

by

(OR: HILLARY AND THE FBI’S VIEW OF THE LAW.)

            Remember the scene in the Disney movie THE WIZARD OF OZ where Dorothy figures out what to do with the Red Shoes?  She defeated the wicked witch who evaporated leaving her black robe and pointed hat on the ground.  That is the scene Rooster sees with Hillary Clinton.  The FBI gave Trump the red shoes and he will know how to use them.  In fact he would be well advised to wear red shoes and offer this explanation.  Can’t you just see him rubbing his shoes, saying something like “Crooked Hillary will disappear.”

The statement released by the FBI has set the stage.  Cameras are ready, everyone is in place… silence on the stage, roll the cameras.  Even Winston shares this vision.  The Director of the FBI, Mr. James Comey, told the world Hillary and her controlled staff were extremely negligent.  For undisclosed reasons, he decided not to ask the Department of Justice, with a Lynch women in control, to do anything about it.  One might ask,” Why ask a dead man to say grace? “ All Lynch would do is stall and delay, with Obama’s help, and pass the matter beyond the soon to be election. Just in reviewing the FBI suggestion she could take 6 months.  A dead end.  Better to give the tools to the candidate and others.  Properly used, the tools will, like the red shoes, send “What difference does it make”  to the evaporation chair.

Now the law.   Listening to FBI Comey, and the news pundits something smells bad.    What is this clear evidence of intent Comey told us was lacking?  Remember Rooster was once a Prosecutor in charge of trials in a large District Attorney office. He and you must know that for every infraction and crime there is a defined intent or state of mine.   In Common Criminal law you have Specific Intent, General Intent, and substitutes for intent. One is gross negligence, another is strict liability.  In Specific intent the Defendant must have specifically intended the crime and its consequences.  In General intent the defendant simply must have intended to do what he or she did, even without thinking about the wrong.  Substitutes come in a variety of words and concepts.   In Administrative law bureaucrats have created others.  Sometimes this legislative nonsense creeps into statutes passed by Congress and others.  Point is the words “Clear intent” is not used and is meaningless.

The United States has one law that covers the disclosure of classified information.  It is 18 U.S. Code 798. No one has mentioned it.   It does not use a common law definition of intent, but one of the historic administrative concepts.,  “Knowingly and willingly” as the state of mind.  Federal law uses the concept often.  This is like general intent. All the attorney should have to prove is that the defendant did the acts, i.e.: creating an unsecured server and putting and removing classified information therein.  The Supreme Court, on another statute, Bowder vs U.S. 32 US 335, found that knowingly and willingly does not mean that you did the acts with evil or dishonest knowledge.  It simply means you did the acts while conscious and awake. I.e.: you knew what you were doing.  The only defense is by mistake or accident.  If you are found guilty of USC 798,  you can be fined (no limit) and put in jail for 10 years.  Now what Comey did was to add to “Knowingly and willingly” a specific intent (Clear intent…his word.).  He is flat wrong. The U.S. has many other statutes that touch on the subject.  For example look at 18 USC 1905 which talks about propriety rights.  It is also has a general type intent.  Simply publishing, divulging, or disclosing is all it takes.   Others include Executive orders, the Espionage Act of 1917, The Atomic Energy Act of 1954, and the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982.  Point is our federal law is very specific on this subject. Our enforcement is not, which is why Congress, the President, and others leak information without fear.   Rooster could not find one statute that required a “Clear Intent” as stated by the FBI. Moreover the congressional committee and Mr. Comey often referred to 18 USC 1924 which is simply a specific application of 798.

Now most of the news sources say the FBI was relying on Executive Order 13526, and 18 U.S.C. 793 (f) .  Again something smells very bad.   First Executive Order 13526 is a long discussion of what is and is not classified stuff..   When talking about punishment it adopts the language of U.S.C. 798 above.  It specifically says the “Knowingly and willfully” form of state of mind,, which is not a “Clear Intent”. Section 793 (f) is another of the “other statutes” which attempts to cover specific acts.  It in no way takes away from 798 which is the primary punishment law.  Point is, the FBI director is misleading the nation.  Why?   Well maybe Rooster is correct when he says Comey wanted this wrong to be up front and on point now and not after the election.  Or maybe he simply only thought of Gross Negligence and its history.    Apparently he never heard of multiple counts of wrong doing in a criminal case.  I think I hear Richard Nixon, scratching on his tomb, to be reheard on his minutes of erased tape, of office conversations.

WHO ARE THE HOMELESS?

by

(OR:  LET’S TAKE A CLOSE LOOK AT HOUSELESSNESS.)

It is time to take on the do-gooder leftist defense of the homeless and face the issue anew in 2016.  First, we need to know who homeless are, before we can find a way for them to get off the street.   Second, we have to know that being on the street is terrible for them and society suffers.  Where liberals control,  homelessness abounds.  Just visit San Francisco or Honolulu for examples.

First, who are these folks called “homeless”?  They come in all colors, heights, wellness and genders.  They are neither religious nor racial, so those typical leftist defenses are gone.   They are people who cannot cope, cannot keep a job, cannot pay rent, cannot fit in with society.  They do not understand or know what to do to care for themselves let alone anyone else.  It was not long ago that  we called them by different  names.  They were bums, vagabonds, bindle-stiffs, beggars,  ner-do-wells, bridge dwellers, outcasts, crazies,  drunks, thieves, hermits, and these are just the names Rooster can recall.   Today the political correct people lump them all together as Homeless.  Talk about over simplification.   Liberals have never possessed robust common sense so maybe they see themselves in the abject homeless.  As each of us is different, so too, is a homeless person.  Each will have a mix of disabilities. We cannot cover them all here.  What is common among them is that they cannot cope.  Sleeping under bushes, covered in old rags and papers, and relieving themselves as needed is called not able to cope.  One of their most common personal problems is not self-abuse, but what we, today, call autism.  Other disabilities are common, but not as prevalent.  In the school world they often refer to children, with autism, as unemployables.  Now autism is a very broad word covering manifestations rather than causes..  Few are able to accept that Autism is a genetic defect and is not curable.  In some cases it can be modified, but never cured, at least with the knowledge we now possess.   In some  families an autistic child is protected at least until they reach 18.  As family cohesiveness has failed so has the caring.  This means more and more such disabled persons are left to beg and receive handouts. The common core of autism is a disabled common sense.  This is varied in all who have it. For example on one extreme you have the recluse who hides from reality. On the other you have the proverbial con/man or woman.  The latter can talk the talk, and walk the walk, but they have little concept of the consequences of their lies.   Between these extremes,  exists  an extensive common sense fog in which many wander in confusion.  The so called wise ones have failed to recognize that common sense is a very relevant aspect of clear thinking.  It is not tested for and it is not recognized as being as important as IQ. This dilemma, is for another day.   What we can now do is understand homeless people need societies help, every day.   It is a terrible abuse of common sense to let these lost souls flounder about like wounded animals.  We must demand of our Cities, Counties, and other Governments to face their obligation for providing  threshold care and attention.  For example if a law enforcement type determines one is “homeless”  they should have the power to place them in a facility that  can care for their physical and/or mental problems.  This screening process will be a social detention, not incarceration.  Some can be redirected.  Some will no doubt return to the status of homeless, but once again, as they are less and less capable of self-care, they at least will receive periodic attention.

In the 60s and beyond,  this was handled in a very causal but effective way.   Then the homeless who had fallen the furthest were arrested and placed in governmental care for a period of time.  They were cleaned, clothed, medicated, fed and rested.   These people developed rap sheets a mile long  for minor offenses such as disturbing the peace, trespass,  loitering, petty theft, drunkenness, etc.  The police, judges, etc. knew they were providing a public service no one else was willing to do. It was far more humane, than the liberal way of demanding homeless rights and especially demanding that they can continue to harm themselves and others around them.  Common sense tells us society must provide care and treatment or suffer the consequences.

KEYSTONE AND PORTUGAL

by

(OR;  Obama kills Keystone, & Portugal Socialist kill Peace.)

    Rooster sees a parallel between Obama killing the Keystone Pipeline and Socialist in Portugal joining forces to kill a successful and peaceful government.

    To bring you up to speed, the WSJ reported both items under their section “Nation and World”.   Obama, by Executive dictate, “kills proposal for Keystone pipeline” which is the proposed pipeline across the U.S. to transport oil from Canada.  Safer than trucks and trains, Amen.  The State Department ruled that it would have a negative environmental impact and Obama previously said if that was so, he would support it.  Once it was so, he flopped the flip and says he is now against it because the pipe would carry “Dirty Oil”.   Of course the denial fits because of his war on Global Warming through world control. The point is his refusal is a clear denial of the people’s choice, a clear reckless disregard for our economy, and a clear failure of common sense.  Obama not only appears to be a closet Muslim, but at the same time  is a dedicated socialist/communist.  Both belief systems are devoted to a one world rule.  Islam does it with Allah’s help, and Communism does it without a God.  Obama does not know which horse to ride, but in his own words he probably would side with Islam.  You can search his mind and the corners of the Oval Office, and you will not find Mr. Common Sense anywhere about.

    Across the pond, in Portugal you find the same absence of that elusive gentleman.   The WSJ byline is “2 leftist parties say they’ll work together.”  What it then says is that the Communist party and Socialist Party have reached an agreement to vote together to destroy the existing middle of the road coalition which has been turning the country around from financial collapse.

    In both you have to observe a weird mind set which is bound and determined to destroy and to hell with the people.  Both Obama’s brain and the brains of the Portuguese left rejoice at the destruction of that which they do not like.  The “like” part has little to do with logic, or common sense.  In this regard there is a very disturbing correlation between them and the typical mass killer who lashes out at what he is emotionally against.   This brainless desire to destroy cannot really be called idiotic or insane because there are simply too many who think the same. In every society it is the common sense vs the common senseless. The latter opt to destroy rather than to debate and work out compromise. It is S.A.D.
