Trump & Guns
So yesterday The Donald mentions the fact of one or more openings on the supreme court that will be filled by either him or Clinton. He also goes on to mention in passing that if Hillary gets the chore gun rights may be curtailed.He further comments that if those gun rights are scaled back gun owners might be upset. That's it. From those observations/predictions the weenies in the media and the progressives/democrats deduce an assassination may be in the crystal ball for Hillary.That's a stretch. Limiting gun rights would be an aggressive act that would be met with opposition. Who would doubt that? But an assassination of the president?Lets face it when adults can't talk about serious topics in public we will need gun rights more than ever.Our nations is largely weenies on both sides worrying about victims both artificially produced or born naturally.We weren't born to worry about victims. We are here to survive in a responsible way and live humanely with others.Any other plan is a scheme for crooks and losers to get something for nothing.

Bush And Wimps In Congress
Yesterdays airing of Bush and Cheney's "crimes and misdemeanors" before the House Judiciary Committee brought out the verbal long knives. There were few supporters of the current administration with one notable exception. He was Jeremy Rabkin. He's a law professor at George Mason University. But he also is on American Enterprise Institue's Council Of Academic Advisors. AEI promotes shared goals between goverment and the private sector particularly as those goals are involved with foreign policy. That also describes what fascists do. The difference is they are called AEI Council Of Academic Advisors when they are representing the United States. But if they oppose the U.S. then they are called fascists.
Rabkin said,"The tone of these deliberations is slightly demented. You should all remind yourselves that the rest of the country is not necessarily in this same bubble in which people think it is reasonable to describe the president as if he were Caligula."
First century Roman Caesar Caligula was assasinated by his personal guards who were supposedly acting on instructions from the Roman Senate. The Senators were rebelling against Caligula's usurpation of senatorial powers. That's where the comparison of Bush to Caligula breaks down. In the days of Roman supremacy there were real senators in the senate who were prepared to take all means against out of control imperial caesars. Now our senate and the greater congress are all off- the- shelf wimps.
