The time has come.

That little shit Kim Jung Un waited until we had a national disaster (Houston) then fired a missile over Japan.  He was told not to mess with the US or it's allies.  It's time to stick it up his pint size ass. I still don't know why we haven't taken him out yet.

The Budget

Well here it is almost the end of August  and Connecticut still does not have a state budget. You'd think these Democrats would get off their butts and do something. Instead they're busy worrying about slamming the Republicans and boosting their images for reelection. Many towns have had to cut services, lay off teachers and staff and close facilities. The Town of Scotland may have to dissolve or go bankrupt.  This is what happens when a government is run by Democrats.

No win situation

Just lost some of the respect that I had for Senator Bernie Sanders.  I felt that he got screwed by the Dems and Hillary's campaign.
I just watched him on CBS this morning. When asked about President Trump visiting the Houston area today, Sanders said it is probably too soon.  If Trump didn't go,  there would be an uproar because it took a few days for his visit.   There is no way to win.  Screw them all.  Let Trump be Trump. 

Harvey

I sympathize with the people who are experiencing problems from hurricane Harvey. 
I especially feel bad for the pets that are being left behind and are now being found.
People knew for a couple of days in advance that this storm was coming and the magnitude of it. I know that if it was something that was going to strike my area, two days in advance my three dogs, my wife and I would be in vehicles and heading for the hills. Our dogs are like our kids.

Sheriff Joe .

The Liberals are on the warpath again. President Trump did a very good thing in pardoning Sheriff Joe Arpaio.  Joe is 85 years old and has spent over 50 years of his life as a man of honor, protecting and serving the people of Maricopa county in Arizona.  His geographical location is rampant with illegals sneaking over the border.  Sheriff Joe did what needed to be done for his community. Apparently that's not good enough of an explanation for the snowflakes and for the Democrats. So they took Sheriff Joe to court and won their argument that it was considered racial profiling. Well Sheriff Joe , being The Honorable man of the law that he is, didn't obey that order but he intended on keeping his community safe and was promptly arrested for it. He was convicted but not sentenced yet. President Trump did the right thing by pardoning this honorable man. If Hillary had won the election I'm sure the first thing she would have done was Grant herself a blanket pardon. She's very fortunate that President Trump has a heart and is not going after her and throwing her skank butt in jail.
Kudos to Sheriff Arpaio and President Trump.

Justice served

For my regular readers - you may remember posts from last year about my feelings about Colin Kaepernick. 
He's the reason why players feel that it's ok to disrespect our flag and country by kneeling during the National Anthem.
Now he can't find a team to hire him, even with his promise to stand this year.
Screw him and all the others that are following in his footsteps. May they all be unemployed next season.
He won the battle but lost the war.

My solution for you

I have come up with a solution
to help the offended out. While you are tearing down and/or removing the
statues that offend you because someone else told you they do, do this for
me... Check your money
$1
bill has Washington - slave owner
$2
bill has Jefferson - slave owner
$5
bill has Lincoln
- did not necessarily agree with slavery, but didn't agree that blacks were
equal
$10
bill has Hamilton - slave owner
$20
bill has Jackson - slave owner
$50
bill has Grant - slave owner
$100
bill has Franklin
- affiliation with slave trade.
And then there's the coins with Lincoln, Roosevelt, Washington, Jefferson and Monticello.
I'm
here to help, I really am. What I need y'all to do is send me all your currency
so I can dispose of it for you. No need to carry these evil people in your
pocket that cause your life so much trauma and tears. Don't be a hypocrite,
send me the money. It's evil! Contact me for details on where to send it

And then there's Al Sharpton

The stupid, idiotic Al Sharpton should learn to choose his words before they come back and bite him on the ass. This idiot made a big stink on TV about places like the Jefferson Memorial being funded with federal dollars. He said it's offensive to him that his tax dollars are being used for something that he hates. Well as it was pointed out, Al Sharpton owes the government over a million dollars in back taxes. I would which  of his tax dollars were used for these national monuments.

Stupid state senator from Missouri

A black, female Democratic state senator from Missouri made the stupid comment that she hopes that president Trump gets assassinated. And then very boldly said that she refuses to apologize for it. Let's get something clear -  if I, the Ranting Captain, stated that I wanted Obama to be assassinated a few years ago, I would get a visit from the Secret Service. There's no way this woman should keep her position and stay in office. She should be prosecuted and thrown in jail. Just another example of the double standard. You don't see the Democratic Leadership or any high-ranking Democrats coming out and opposing this woman's comments and condemning her.

Jesse Watters for Prez

He says it like it is. He reminded people in his show the other night that Robert E Lee and most of the slave owners were Democrats most of the Confederates were Democrats at the time. He talked about defacing Abraham Lincoln's statue in Chicago. He mentioned that Chicago is the land of Lincoln, and Lincoln was the one who freed the slaves. These people are just stupid.
Other key points were that Nancy Pelosi, who is now lobbying for removal of statues from the US Capitol , has been in office for 30 years. How come now, 30 years later, she's offended by the statues. She went 30 years without being offended. And what about Democratic senator Robert Byrd who was a member of the KKK.
You can't even say that the Democrats are two-faced. They have multiple faces.

Painful to watch

It's becoming more and more painful to watch the statues of our history be taken down. The Civil War was almost 200 years ago and for 200 years many generations of descendants from slaves and Confederates have revered the statues as part of our history. They feel they were a reminder of where the country once was and shows us how far we have come. So why is this new generation of people, almost 200 years later , all of a sudden feeling pain from the presence of these statues. Once they come down they don't mean the same. What's next do we pack up our families and zip them off to Mount Rushmore , Stone Mountain or to the battlefields in Williamsburg and Fredericksburg Virginia , because they may not be there in the future. Or maybe somebody will come up with some stupid idea like putting Martin Luther King and Barack Obama on Mount Rushmore instead and getting rid of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. We are Americans. This is our history. Embrace it. Deal with it. I can't imagine visiting Washington DC and having the Washington Monument , the Jefferson Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial all gone. Also, in our US Capitol every state can put up two monuments . So now they're compiling a list of which ones should be taken down. It has to stop.

Lost society

We have finally shown that we are a Lost Society. Actions in Charlottesville Virginia this past week and the events after it have shown us that there is never going to be a way to please everybody. Our president came out right away and denounced the actions of what happened and was criticized because he didn't name specific groups. So he came out within the next day and a half and named those specific groups. But that wasn't good enough, they said it took too long for him to do it. Yet their precious Obama disregarded completely commenting when black lives matter people killed cops and chanted death to Cops . I can only imagine how this looks to people in other countries. We look like the most dysfunctional family of Americans ever.

This is how messed up the liberal mind works

Senator Blumenthal

All I can say is, what a putz.  He's doing his usual campaigning, putting his face in front of every TV Camera, every day of the week. I don't know how many times president Trump has to say he's not looking to fire Robert Mueller . Apparently Senator Blumenthal thinks he actually has to write legislation preventing Trump from firing Mueller. He's just grasping headlines again. He wasn't prepared for president Trump to come back and bite his head off with all his fake Vietnam stuff. These Democrats still can't face the fact that they lost. Work with us for four years. If you don't like it , go back to your usual loser ways.
