ROB MANESS

With the extraordinary Cruz vs. Trump battle for the GOP presidential nomination sucking up all of the political oxygen, it is easy to miss the fact that awesome conservative and retired Air Force colonel Rob Maness is running for the U.S. Senate in Louisiana.

Folks, please allow me to cut to the chase.  Our country is going to hell in a handbasket, fueled by GOP cowardice and an entire Democratic Party hijacked by anti-American zealots.  The only way we stop the horrific effects of Obama's insanity and corruption in both parties is to send rock-solid conservatives we can trust to Washington, candidates with backbones of steel who refuse to go along to get along.

Speaking of backbone, Maness's military awards and combat decorations include the Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star, and the Air Medal.  I am pretty sure Maness will not be intimidated by RINOs, metrosexual Democrats, or Obama's bureaucratic henchmen in D.C.  Maness is like an oak tree, firmly and deeply rooted in the rich, fertile soil of his Christian faith.

When you cut through all the political deceptions, lies, and broken promises, it always comes down to sending character-driven representatives to Washington.  Rob Maness's record proves he fits the bill.  In plain language, Maness is one of us, folks – a real family, God, and country good guy.

I was extremely impressed when I met Rob during his 2014 run for the Senate – a strong conservative fighter, highly respected community leader, served 32 years in the military, husband, father of five, and grandpa of four.

It is not surprising that national conservative heavyweights and organizations are united in endorsing Rob Maness for U.S. Senate.  Those supporting Maness include Dr. Ben Carson, Sarah Palin, Dr. James Dobson, Lt. Governor Billy Nungesser, Conservative Campaign Committee, the Tea Party of Louisiana, Tea Party Nation, Tea Party Forward, the National Association for Gun Rights, and Special Operations Speaks.

Rather than listing all of Rob's leadership roles and achievements, I will say he has proven his competence at the local, state, and federal levels of government, an effective steward of citizens' tax dollars.  Please visit his website for details.

As with any conservative Republican who faithfully advocates for We the People, the GOP establishment is often displeased with and threatened by Maness.  Rob wears their discomfort with him as a badge of honor.

There is a down-to-earth everyman quality about Rob, driving his pickup truck around Louisiana, spreading the good news of traditional American principles and values: God, family, country, and the Constitution.  Please enjoy this entertaining 30-second TV ad in which Rob promises to wrestle the gators in D.C.

Here is an example of Maness's strong, decisive leadership regarding our national security.  In response to the jihadi attacks in Brussels, Maness advises Congress to fulfill its constitutional duty and finally declare war against the Islamic State.  Maness says, “[U]ntil we formally declare war, our enemies and objectives will continue to be unclear, and the American people will continue to be divided.”

C'mon folks, admit it.  Isn't Maness's manly stand for American leadership a refreshing contrast to Obama's and Kerry's apologize-for-our-very-existence and give-our-enemies-everything-they-want approach?

By the way, the Islamic terrorist attacks in Brussels hit a little too close to home for the Maness family.  The night before the attacks, Rob's and Candy's son flew out of Europe on military leave on an American Airlines flight.

According to a new Pew Research report, our country is undergoing a scary demographic shift.  Decades of allowing liberals to brainwash our kids and not encouraging immigrants to assimilate is taking America down a different path, far away from the country envisioned by our Founding Fathers.

The only way to ensure that the America we grew up with will be there for our grandkids and great-grandkids is to consistently send rock-solid conservatives who espouse traditional American principles and values to Washington.  In that regard, America desperately needs Col. Rob Maness in the U.S. Senate.  Please, let's help him folks.  God bless.

You can learn more about Rob Maness at his website.

daddy marcus

My 87 year old black preacher dad phoned me from Baltimore Maryland at my home in Florida. Dad spent the day at a conference for Baltimore City Fire Dept chaplains. Dad chuckled that he received a round of applause at the conference for being the oldest active chaplain in the state.

Later this month, Dad is scheduled to be the keynote speaker addressing new recruits into the Baltimore fire department. He mentioned seeing a recruit outside of the conference wearing a fire department t-shirt while holding a can of beer. Dad learned that the recruit also has a habit of being late. Dad said such behavior was not tolerated in his day as a young firefighter. He lamented the decline of department standards.

Dad's church is a beautiful historic building located in a Baltimore black ghetto. Dad attended the funeral of the grandson of a couple who are members of his church. The slain 17 year old black male lived with his grandparents. He was shot multiple times and killed in a battle between black drug dealers.

Baltimore, Chicago, Washington DC, New York and numerous other cities controlled by liberal democrats are hotbeds of blacks murdering blacks, despite super restrictive gun laws. http://bit.ly/1R6NF8y Blacks are murdering each other in epidemic record breaking numbers. http://bsun.md/1mVGnJo The Democrat party and mainstream media are doing black Americans a huge disservice by keeping this truth on the down-low. For shameful self-aggrandizing political purposes, the Left continues to further the lie that the biggest threat to young black males is white cops.

Months ago before his death, the young drug dealer was shot in the leg and bragged about it as if it were a badge of honor. Dad prayed with his grandparents that the boy would change.

Dad said the funeral was outrageously lavish which he learned is called Ghetto Fabulous. The coffin was mahogany on the outside lined with silver inside. The corpse was dressed in a white shirt, white pants and $1700 white tennis shoes. The coffin was paraded through the ghetto neighborhood on a carriage which looked like glass, pulled by two white Clydesdale horses driven by two white guys in top hats. After parading the neighborhood, the coffin was transferred to a standard funeral hearse.

Everyone in the neighborhood knew the funeral was funded with drug money. The murdered young drug dealer lived in a house behind Dad's church in the ghetto with his grandparents. The elderly couple could not afford to fund such a spectacle for their grandson.

A woman who lived two doors away from the slain young man said she would not shed a tear for him, but felt bad for his grandparents. She said she found a gun with a loaded magazine under her front porch. The woman turned the gun over to the police. She said the now deceased 17 year old slashed all four tires of her car. She knew it was him because he came by her home taunting her, rapping about what he did to her.

Dad said the funeral and everything connected to it was very disturbing. Other than the day of his church's weekly outreach of handing out free meals, he cannot get the local street people anywhere near hearing him preach. After praying about it, Dad felt led to get out of his church and into the streets. He decided to walk the neighborhood around his church with a sign that read, “Stop the Killing.”

Word spread and neighbors began joining Dad. Dad said cars drove by honking their horns and giving his group thumps up. Group members began spontaneously chanting, “Stop the killing! Stop the killing!”

Dad said they stood in a circle holding hands and praying. A uniformed female black cop pulled her police car over to check out what was going on. She said, “Go ahead and pray, I got your backs.” Thugs joined Dad's prayer circle, laughing and making fun of them. Dad said by the end of their prayer, he saw a few of the thugs wiping their eyes.

Dad is extremely excited and plans to hit the streets again next week. Please pray that God will keep my dad safe out there on the mean streets of Baltimore.

Ted Cruz: #SocialIssuesMatter

Baby in Daddy's Big Hands

Mary and I are still in a Louisiana hotel room on the road with our Conservative Campaign Committee team, campaigning for Ted Cruz.  Later today we will pile into an SUV and head to Mississippi.  Crawfish are very popular here, sold at Walmart and seemingly every restaurant.  Louisianians have been very friendly and say "y'all" a lot.

Folks, while I am pleased that Cruz did well in Louisiana, I am still troubled by our side's apparent lack of concern regarding the unspeakable evil activities of Planned Parenthood and other social issues.

Cruz promises to do everything Mr. Trump has promised: secure our border, deport illegals, and defend American interest domestically and internationally.

For all you folks concerned that your kids cannot find jobs, Cruz says illegal immigration is an economic issue.  Cruz explains how 12 million illegals are taking jobs from Americans and keeping wages low.  Touting that his dad began as a dishwasher, Cruz exposes the Chamber of Commerce, Democrat, and Republican lie that Americans won't do those jobs.

However, Cruz also promises to be uncompromising in defending our rights regarding crucial social issues.

It is a horrible mistake to sacrifice social issues because you are POed with the GOP establishment and politicians in general. Cruz is a professional politician, but is an outsider, despised for doing what We the People sent him to Washington to do. Cruz is the smartest and most ideological and character-driven candidate.  Cruz will keep his word.

Forgive me for bringing God into the mix again, but God cannot be pleased with folks on both sides of the political aisle having a ho-hum attitude about Planned Parenthood chopping off baby heads and giving each other high fives when the cut is perfect because the head sells for more cash.  I don't care how many of you send me hate mail.  PP is pure evil from the pits of hell.  This is not a wonderful organization doing great things for women.

A teacher scolded a little girl for saying grace over her lunch; she was told not to pray in school.  Seniors at a center were told they had violated the separation of church and state by praying over their federally provided meals.  The Ten Commandments are being removed from federal and public buildings.

Ted Cruz has vowed to relentlessly protect, restore, and defend religious liberty.  On his first day as president, Cruz promises to instruct the DOJ to investigate PP and prosecute any criminal activity.

Get this, folks: it is illegal to assist a homosexual who desires to change his behavior to heterosexual.  Leftists are for freedom of choice only when you are making the choices they demand you make, which are typically anti-God, anti-tradition, and anti-American.  If you want to get on the fighting side of a leftist, counsel a young woman regarding not killing her unborn child.

Yes, securing our borders, deporting illegals, stopping the illegal invasion, and restoring our economy are hugely important.  As I said, Cruz gets it and has proven himself to be a pit bull regarding each issue.  This is why Cruz is so feared and despised by Washington insider politicians.

But folks, we cannot blow off the social stuff.  These things matter greatly regarding who we are as a nation, keeping us a moral, decent, and good people.

Tocqueville said, “America is great because she is good.  If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”

Ted Cruz is the total package.  Evangelicals and conservatives should rally behind Cruz en masse.

Is Ted Cruz the Answer?

Ted Cruz headshot

Folks, my political activism is not rooted in winning elections at all cost. It is about preserving what I grew up thinking we were as a country -- my corny love for my country, belief that good triumphs over evil, and my sense of right and wrong. I know. I know. I sound like a bad Frank Capra movie. However, I will not apologize for who I am.

Numerous times, I have shared that my dad was among a handful of blacks who broke the color barrier becoming Baltimore City firefighters in the early 1950s. Despite humiliating, racist, and unfair work conditions, Dad won Firefighter of the Year two times. Well, I am sorry folks, but that made a huge impression on me. All my dad wanted was an opportunity to compete for the job; no lowered standards or special concessions due to his skin color. Dad's example taught me not to run around thinking everyone owes me something.

Striving for excellence and doing things God's way won Dad the respect of his white fellow firefighters who once resented him. One of Dad's most vehement adversaries risked his life, going back into a burning building and saved Dad's life. The incident birthed a lifelong friendship between the two men.

Employers hire employees to benefit their business. Period. The more you benefit my business via education and heightened skills, the more valuable you are to me, the more I increase your pay to keep you. Such reasoning is not evil or unfair. And yet, today in America, unskilled workers are demanding a starting hourly wage enough to raise a family with flat-screen TVs and cell phones. This mindset is arrogant, wrong and actually cost jobs when implemented. I do not care that some folks do not like me saying this. Demanding a minimum wage that is not rooted in economic sense reflects the new entitlement mindset; a deterioration of who we are as a country.

I also have a huge problem with people trashing achievers and thinking that they are entitled to what others have worked for. This mindset troubles me to my core. When you read the autobiographies of many achievers, the common thread is they paid a great price to become successful. While others were dating and partying, future achievers where studying, working long hours, two and three jobs, sacrificing relationships, risking and often losing their life savings. Then, when an entrepreneur finally makes it, everyone has their hand out demanding “their” portion; claiming the achiever is the beneficiary of white or some other absurd privilege. It turns my stomach folks. The owner of a small meat processing company told me his employees' salaries were higher than his for the first ten years.

At my local gym, the dozen or so televisions in front of the aerobic exercise machines illustrate the relentless promotion of America's cultural rot; everything from sexual deviancy to lie-filled liberal bias news reporting and people celebrated for behaving badly.

Folks, I am so sick of various groups of Americans running to microphones to claim their victim status. It is so beneath the legacy of our founders. What has happened to backbone, self-reliance and true grit? If I hear one more wimpy millennial whine about not feeling “safe”, I will barf.

Every Oscar season, black actors now demand that black films, producers and actors receive Oscar nominations or Hollywood will be accused of racism. In essence, held hostage. Thus, mediocre black movies and performances must be awarded or else. Well, Hollywood, you created this monster, relentlessly promoting the narrative that America is a hellhole of racism. Your chickens have come home to roost.

As I said, folks, my political activism is all about restoring and preserving who we are as a people, a great nation.

Planned Parenthood does a little dance every time they score an intact dead baby head because it can be sold at a premium price. And yet, politicians kiss the baby killers' derrieres and fund them annually to the tune of $500 million for political purposes. Who and what are we becoming, folks?

These are the reasons why I disagree with those who say the social issues do not matter. “Let's just elect a candidate who will get our economy in order and seal our border; someone who will compromise, negotiate and punt the social stuff.” Building on a foundation of the economy and border security alone is like building on sand. It “ain't” enough folks.

Here I go sounding corny again. America is exceptional because it was founded/built on the rock (God) and the extraordinary unique idea of individual freedom and liberty. Government cannot tell you what to say, think and how to worship. And yet, such infringements are happening more and more in America today. We are losing our country and our morals and far too many Americans do not see it.

It is crucial that we elect a leader who is rooted in the Constitution and faith in God, just like our founding fathers. That presidential candidate is Ted Cruz.

Help Save Fox News? No Way

I will not help save Fox News, and neither should you. Fox News is more and more against the tea party all the time. It wants the establishment republicans to rule, not true conservatives. That's why Graham is interviewed so often. That's why they like Jeb. That's why they hate Trump. I rarely listen to Fox anymore. They're almost liberals on there. In fact, Alan Combs is a liberal, as socialist as they come. And it is going to get worse. If you ask me, this squawking by Fox or whoever, about them being threatened, might be a put-up job to rally declining support for Fox. I have all but scratched Fox from my routine. I listen to Mark Levin instead.

Recently, I questioned my 87 year old dad. “Was it a dream or did you and mom allow a man dressed like a woman to run through our home and out the back door?” Dad replied, “Wow! How on earth could you possibly remember that?” I was a toddler then, now in my sixties. Dad said the man was being chased by the police and my mom felt sorry for him.

Today, transvestites are celebrated, awarded for courage.  And yet, more Americans than ever view themselves as victims.

Victim

A caller on a radio show said people are fed up with both sides complaining about being victims. He cited conservatives' bogus claim that there is a war on Christmas. I thought, “Sir, the Left's war on Christianity is real.”

The Left's (Democrats, Hollywood and MSM) gospel of Victim-hood-ism is a despicable lie designed to create division, paranoia, fear and hate in Americans. The entire Democratic party platform is based on the lie that everyone is a victim of someone or something. Women are victims of American men.  Blacks are victims of whites, police and America.  The poor are victims of the rich. Homosexuals are victims of heterosexuals. Illegals are victims of American citizens. Kids of bad parents are victims of wholesome households.

Employees are victims of employers.

The Democrats' list of bogus inequalities goes on and on. Meanwhile, in the few incidences in which the inequalities are real, Democrat fixes have caused or exacerbated them.

Exploiting the goodness of Americans, Democrats insidiously package their infectious victim mindset disease in passionate sounding terms such as “white privilege”, “income inequality” and “social justice.” What decent American does not desire justice for all?

So along comes Bryce Williams, a nut-job black homosexual bad employee who bought the Left's victim crap hook, line and sinker. This guy's victim mindset sounds like a comedy bit from a movie. For example. When his employer talked about “out in the field” reporter assignments, Williams was offended; convinced this white man was sending him back to the field as in cotton and black slavery.  Don't laugh folks. The Left's rhetoric has gotten that crazy. Allow me to remind you of an article alerting us that peanut and belly sandwiches are now racist.

A black interviewer on TV explained why he was offended when a police officer used the term “low income neighborhood.” The paranoid interviewer concluded that the term was really code, actually meaning that the black residents are unworthy of police respect. Therefore, the term is racist. I thought, “Dude, you need help.”

Hillary Clinton Virginia shooting

Two things turned my stomach this week – bad Salmon from the grocery store and Hillary Clinton exploiting the murders of the reporter and cameraman in Virginia to further the Left's gun grabbing agenda.  While I realize this is what brain-dead emotion-driven Leftist zealots do, common decency says, must you guys politicize everything? From the weather (acts of God) to humans behaving badly, Leftists immediately brainstorm how to use it to further their anti-God, anti-freedom and anti-American agenda.

The Left's arguments against gun ownership are totally illogical. Good people with guns stop bad people with guns. Also, a gun is the great equalizer. If my petite wife is alone, approached in a parking garage, do I want her attacker staring at a can of mace or down the barrel of a gun in her hand? And yet, Leftists claim to be great defenders for women.

Stats overwhelmingly confirm that states where folks carry guns, murder is down.  In cities with the strictest guns laws, murder is way up.

Criminals acquire guns illegally. Gun laws, disarming law abiding citizens, empowers criminals. Why do Leftists vehemently reject this obvious truth?

War on Men

Conspiracy theorists offer various reasons why the Left is hellbent on disarming the American people. I believe the simple answer is Leftist males are metro-sexual wimps. Feminized and PC (politically castrated), Leftists males join radical feminists in viewing guns and the slightest display of testosterone, power or aggression for any reason as bad. This is why Leftists are drugging little boys into femininity.

Deceptively, liberals always claim to put people first. The reality is liberals eat, drink and sleep increasing the Democrat voter rolls. Why? Because Democrats in power equals more liberal radical agenda items, that the American people would never vote for, crammed down our throats.

Liberals only care about empowering government, repealing Americans' freedom of choice. Liberals view the pain, suffering and lives of We the People as acceptable collateral damage towards achieving their goal.

Unless they can blame Republicans or inanimate objects (guns), Leftists treat bad behavior as always the fault of someone else. I believe individuals are solely responsible for their behavior. However, Bryce Williams was unquestionably a fanatic; a terrorist of the Left's religion of Victim-hood-ism.

Left image

One would think Leftists might feel a little responsible and back off their spreading of hate (victim-hood-ism). Don't bet on it. These people are evil. Pure and simple. The murdering of reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward are gifts to further the Left's mission to disarm Americans. I realize that sounds harsh. Sadly, my analysis is true.

An outgrowth of the Left's despicable gospel of Victim-hood-ism is its equally despicable Black Lives Matter movement which is based on the lie that cops routinely murder young black men. The Left's calculated impugning of police has lead to police across America ambushed and assassinated.

Upon completing this article, I turned on the TV hearing breaking news. As the result of a black radical group's clarion call to kill cops, Texas Deputy Darren Goforth was assassinated, shot from behind execution-style while fueling his patrol car by a black man. When Goforth fell to the ground, his assassin stood over him shooting multiple times. Deputy Goforth leaves behind a wife and two kids.

I wish to encourage each and every one of you to take a stand for what is right. God uses ordinary people like you and me.

Biased Media vs. Behavioral Standards

I love her because she is a little over a hundred pounds, 5'2” gutsy fired ball. However, every time we fly, I pray she makes it through TSA without losing her cool. My wife Mary despises the gross infringement upon her rights and being “molested by TSA.” Mark Steyn hosting Rush's radio show succinctly articulated the source of my wife's outrage.

"Your grandmother in the wheelchair has to lift up her skirt and show her colostomy bag to the TSA until the end of time. Your grandfather, who got blown up serving his country in a war and has a leg brace, has to be degraded and show that to officialdom at the airport until the end of time. But millions and millions of people can just walk into the selfsame country across the southern border, and we're supposed to just accept it." -Mark Steyn

TSA-SCREENING-OVER-75-large570
Meanwhile, the GOP, the MSM and political experts continue to scratch their heads, puzzled why Trump's poll numbers rise every time he verbally slaps a reporter (operative) pushing the Left's PC agenda. Mary's outrage is shared by millions.We all know the mainstream media is bias. But they appear to have totally come out-of-the-closet exposing their true identity as Leftist operatives. It was infuriating watching a CNN interviewer hammering Republican presidential contender Dr Ben Carson. This despicable jerk kept trying to twist Dr Carson's words to mean Dr Carson wants to bomb refugees with drones.Dr Carson is an extraordinarily kind, gentle and wise man; humanity flowing from his very being. I wanted to slap the interviewer on Dr Carson's behalf. (Just kidding.) Clearly, the Leftist operative interviewer was trying to infer that you never know what those crazy mean-spirited Republicans will do.Also, infuriating and evil is the MSM hiding the sick scandal happening at Planned Parenthood.In the latest video released exposing Planned Parenthood black marketing baby body parts, one of PP's clients joked about shipping whole heads of aborted babies to research labs.  I was stunned by the lack of media coverage and national outrage. Have we grown numb?My wife Mary said, “No, we have not. Outraged Americans held 200 huge rallies nationwide clamoring for the defunding of Planned Parenthood.”  And yet, the MSM is mute regarding the national outcry against PP. Once again, the mainstream media are proving themselves to be operatives of evil; protecting PP by shielding the American people from the truth.defund-PP-Rally-1024x653.jpgMary and I are longtime friends with a liberal couple. Getting their news solely from far left media outlets, they oppose defunding PP. We plan to share the horrific PP videos with them. If our liberal friends still rally behind PP, I no longer want them in my life.Their loyalty to PP means they are disciples of the religion of Liberalism. Its sacrament is abortion. The murder and abuse of babies is fair-game in their war on conservatives and behavior standards. That is off-the-chain evil folks.A trait I have noticed in this couple and Leftist media is their resentment of behavioral standards. They are thrilled when anyone striving to be morally upright fails. They celebrate depravity. As crazy as it sounds, the liberal couple likes Mary and I because we are among the few people in their lives they can trust. And yet, they resent our goody-two-shoes Christianity.At the core of the Left's relentless assault on traditional American values is their hatred of behavioral standards.Black Superbowl quarterback Russell Wilson said he was following God's plan, waiting to have sex after marriage. This made Wilson a MSM laughing stock. With 70% black out-of-wedlock births which leads to gangs, jail and poverty, the MSM attacking the black superstar did black youths a huge disservice.Bible PollFor years the Left despised the Duggar family's wholesome hit TV show. It was an oasis in a desert wasteland were the Left/MSM seeks to make depravity normal. When son, Josh Duggar's moral failures lead to the cancellation of his parent's TV show, the MSM rejoiced. Why? The Duggars promoted behavioral standards.Behavior has consequences. Josh Duggar did the deed and is paying the price. He has asked for forgiveness. I pray this young man will turn his life around. Throughout the Bible men of God had moral failures. Moses murdered a man. King David stole a man's wife and had him killed. Moses and King David repented and became great men of God.The Left presents the absurd argument that unless one is morally perfect, they have no right to suggest behavioral standards. The Bibles says, “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Are we suppose to throw out all behavioral standards because humans are incapable of keeping them perfectly? Apparently, the Left says yes.Angry, fearful and hopeless, Americans see the rapid moral decline of our culture, deathly afraid to say anything. Trump is taking the heat for saying what millions are thinking.Here is another example of the Left's war on behavioral standards. Self-proclaimed former lesbian Dr Rosario Butterfield said because God condemns homosexual behavior, the Left demands man's approval.  Masterfully portraying themselves as victims, in reality, homosexuals are the aggressors. Appeasing the Left/MSM, SCOTUS repealed American's right to freely practice their religionChristians are government mandated to embrace anti-biblical behavioral or suffer economic death and/or jail time.Still, I get the sense that the Left has overplayed its hand and there's a new sheriff in town. Americans are beginning to speak-out and push back against PC sacred cows such as Black Lives Matter, illegal immigration and the radical homosexual agenda.Excellent! It's about time.Lloyd Marcus, The Unhyphenated AmericanChairman, Conservative Campaign Committee

The Invaders: A Parable

Undocumented and unafraid

Pulling into our driveway after a relaxing month-long cruise, my wife Mary yelled, "What the...?"  Mexican flags, old cars, discarded beer cans, and trash were all over our property.

I recruited my Spanish-speaking neighbor.  He yelled over the blaring Mexican music expressing my outrage to the group's leader.  The leader told me to go "f" myself.  He said they have a right to a better life.

The invaders had an insane tangle of extension cords plugged into my electrical outlets.  Sinking into the mud of my once beautiful lawn, I called the police.  Sheriff Bob showed up to inform me that the mayor had decreed ours a sanctuary community.  He also conveyed the mayor's zero tolerance for my hateful, racist attitude.

Code enforcement cited me for various violations.  I was ordered to clean up my property, add bathroom facilities, and upgrade my electrical power to accommodate the daily influx of new residents.

Mary yelled from our bedroom, "Oh, my gosh!"  Her jewelry, including her 30th wedding anniversary diamond earrings, was gone.

A neighbor updated me on our community's crisis.  Beloved elderly Mr. Ben had been beaten and murdered, eight students were raped, numerous neighbors were assaulted, and several homes were burglarized.  Remarkably, not a word of the crime wave had been mentioned in our newspaper.  Clearly, the mayor was behind the media blackout.

As a matter of fact, Community Times reporters flooded us with articles praising the invaders and our loving mayor for welcoming these saintly souls seeking a better life.  I and fellow neighbors who opposed the invasion and complained about the cost were branded haters, selfish, and racists.  The mayor made us owners responsible for providing food, health care, and education for the invaders occupying our properties.

Widowed Miss Shirley, the community gossip, gave Mary the scoop.  She reported to Mary that many of the invaders worked for wealthy contributors to the mayor's re-election campaign.  The invaders were paid peanuts to work as domestics, janitors, laborers, and maintainers of properties.

My feisty Irish wife said, "One thing is for sure: the mayor and his rich pals don't have to worry about their estates being invaded.  Their homes are protected behind 12-foot fences armed with barbed wire, electric fences, and cameras.  Meanwhile, we're forced to be their invaders' welcome wagon!"

Folks, the above tale is fiction, a parable I wrote years ago illustrating illegal immigration.  I was stunned that so many readers thought my outrageous tale was true.  It's a sad commentary on the insanity we have come to expect from government.

Illegal aliensBoth political parties have a vested interest in supporting the invasion.  Big business gets cheap labor.  Democrats have blacks on the path to aborting themselves into extinction, so illegals offer Democrats a fresh crop of future voters – an underclass unskilled, uneducated, and dependent on government.

Insidiously, both parties and the mainstream media prey upon the goodness of the American people.  Anyone opposing the invasion is branded racist, heartless, and mean.

GOP presidential contender Jeb Bush calls embracing illegal aliens an "act of love."  Rush Limbaugh says this is not immigration.  We are being invaded.

For several years, I was honored to sing my original, "Celebrate America," at U.S. naturalization ceremonies in Maryland.  I took pride in knowing that my song was the first thousands heard as new Americans after swearing their oaths of allegiance.  Every ceremony was electric, the hall radiating with emotion and excitement, tears flowing down countless faces.  Unbelievably, Obama decreed that new applicants will no longer be required to pledge their allegiance.

[caption id="attachment_4674" align="aligncenter" width="560"]Candidates wave U.S. flags during a naturalization ceremony to become new U.S. Citizens at Convention Center in Los Angeles, California. The ceremony included 4495 candidates from more than 100 countries.  (Mario Anzuoni/Reuters) Candidates wave U.S. flags during a naturalization ceremony to become new U.S. Citizens at Convention Center in Los Angeles, California. The ceremony included 4495 candidates from more than 100 countries. (Mario Anzuoni/Reuters)[/caption]

Here is a moving, memorable scene.  Family members raised the gentleman, in his 80s or 90s, from his wheelchair to his feet.  A grandchild held up his right hand.  His entire family was tearful as he recited the oath.  Folks, these people truly wanted to be Americans.  They studied, passed the test, and were anxious to assimilate and contribute.  After reciting their oaths and hearing the emcee say, "Congratulations," the hall always erupted in applause and cheers of elation.

Obama refuses to enforce federal immigration law.  Ordered to break the law, border security allows everyone to enter, including gang members, rapists, and murderers.

Obama is endangering and devastating American families, with loved ones raped and murdered by invaders.  Then Obama showers the invaders with welfare and government checks.  Yes, government checks.

Under-reported (hidden) is the epidemic of strange diseases infecting our kids because Obama forced public schools to take in invaders' children.

Obama rolling out the red carpet for invaders is a huge slap in the face to legal new American citizens and those respecting our laws following the legal immigration process.

As with practically every Obama policy, his amnesty for illegals is another self-serving, evil, anti-American agenda item disguised as love.  Thank God a few GOP presidential contenders have the backbone to firmly say, "No!

Generations of Stolen Black Dreams

BOY KILLED

In response to my article, “Please Tell Black Lives Matter to Shut Up and Go Away”, a sincere black activist emailed asking me with what would I replace it? I asked him to explain. The bottom line of his lengthy passionate reply is “Negroes” are still not free in America. He says America has reneged on its promise of liberty and justice for all.

I am black. I asked my beautiful white wife of 39 years a rhetorical question. “Am I an Uncle Tom? Is there something wrong with me? Because for the life of me, I do not have a clue what he is talking about. What is America suppose to do for blacks that it has not done?”

Mary replied, “You're normal. They're wrong, stuck in a mindset.”

Black unemployment, particularly under Obama, is extremely high. While many blacks have achieved their American dream, many have not. It is not white America's fault. Behavioral issues are laying waste in the black community. Over 70% fatherless households and 70% school dropouts leads to gangs, drugs, blacks murdering blacks and incarceration; all resulting in poverty.

So what is Obama's solution to fixing these problems plaguing blacks? He lets drug dealers who prey on urban youths out of jail, claiming their crime is non-violent. He has his DOJ bully police across America to back off urban thugs. Obama minion Baltimore mayor said, “Let them loot. It's only property.” Violent crime is up big-time in Chicago, New York and Baltimore.

Despite claims otherwise, America has not failed its poor. We have welfare and entitlement programs out the ying-yang; a huge chunk of America's national debt. Also, there is nothing saintly about being poor. Don't beat me up for saying that. I have been poor.

Then there is the claim that America “systematically” and “institutionally” hinders opportunities for blacks. Hogwash! A black college professor friend heads a program offering blacks free college tuition. He has trouble finding applicants. This is a guy who worked his way through college and grad school. He was stunned when students thought having to pay their cell phone bill was a legitimate excuse for not purchasing the book and materials for his course.

Back in my late twenties, Christ delivered me from my wild and crazy drug-filled life. I wanted others to experience my joy. I spoke at youth detention centers and prisons. I remember weeping with a young guy who had attempted suicide. It was shocking seeing so many bright, talented and gifted young black men in prison. The two things they had in common was negative attitudes and victim mindsets. Thank you Democrat Party.

I fought the urge to grab them by the collar, slap them and yell, “Snap out of it! You were blessed to be born in America, the greatest land of opportunity on the planet! Stop this nonsense and go for your dreams!”

illegals boatFor crying out loud, people around the world are risking everything crossing shark infested waters in cardboard boats held together with duct tape, desperate to get to America.

Like formerly fat people who continue to see an obese person in the mirror, Democrats have ingrained in blacks that they are victims of an “eternally” racist America; despite glaring evidence proving otherwise.

With sadness in his voice, a black conservative friend phoned me. “Have you heard? Another unarmed young black man was shot.” The cop was a white rookie. Regardless of the facts, the MSM is married to its cops-murder-blacks narrative. Upon investigation, I learned that the black youth was armed and pointed his gun at police. Still, I sensed that even my conservative buddy was infected with the Left's America mistreats blacks mindset.

In hindsight, when my friend asked if had I heard about another shooting of a black youth, I should have said are you talking about the 40 shot in Chicago over the Memorial Day weekend or the 29 shot in Baltimore by fellow blacks? Oh, you must be talking about the 7 year old just shot in a drive-by. The grieving boy's mom tearfully said, “He had plans. He was going to be somebody.”

Sadly, there are a large number of black Americans whose brains are entombed in a victim mindset; impenetrable by the truth. A prime example are the disgusting comments made by a black woman during a TV interview, expressing her support of a black youth. “He didn't do no wrong. He just shot a cop.” This hateful woman is the equivalent of the KKK justifying killing blacks.

Like the deranged black woman, the MSM, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Democrats refuse to hold blacks accountable for anything. AA calls those who make it comfortable for an alcoholic to continue behaving irresponsibly, “enablers”. Not holding blacks accountable severely undermines black empowerment. Surrendering your success or failure into the hands of someone (white America) other than you weakens you.

To my sincere black activist friend, I say we replace “Black Lives Matter” with “Tough Love.” Tell blacks to stop blaming whitey, seeking more doomed-to-fail government programs and voting for Democrats. Generations of black dreams have been stolen due to Democrats addicting blacks to government dependency. While Planned Parenthood/Democrats push blacks to abort themselves into extinction, Democrats are replacing black voters with millions of unskilled, uneducated and poor illegals; taking jobs from blacks.

Today, liberals excuse irresponsible behavior, defending it with fancy intellectual sounding language. My late mom would simply say, “Stop acting stupid.”

Stop acting stupid black America. Stop acting stupid.

Hating Trump's Message

While on an aerobic machine at the gym, I caught Trump on TV. It occurred to me that Trump's high poll numbers really represent the American people vs the America hating Left. Trump's campaign slogan is “Make America Great Again.” Them's fightin' words to the Left.

For decades the Left has used its domination of the media and public education to indoctrinate our kids into believing that it is racist and mean to think of America as great. The Left says such pride and patriotism is an insult to the rest of the world.

You think I am crazy? Public elementary schools banned Lee Greenwood's “Proud to be An American/God Bless the USA” in NY and Florida, thus far.

A Brooklyn elementary school principal blocked patriotism from teachers' plans for a school assembly. Students were going to march in carrying US flags while singing a patriotic song. Here is one of the offensive lyrics. “I'll always do my part, I love my land that's free.”

The Ninth Circuit court upheld a San Francisco school district's ban on wearing American flag t-shirts to school on a Mexican holiday.

Professors at the University of California, Irvine join students in trying to ban the America flag on campus because they say it contributes to racism.

Years ago a white friend told me her son came home from middle school a tearful basket case. He was filled with guilt about the evils his white forefathers thrust upon minorities. Today, my friend's son is an America hating Communist. He also believes white males are the greatest source of evil in the world.

A product of public education, a millennial relative said she would be traveling near South Dakota. I suggested she visit Mt Rushmore. Her reply was venomous, “I wouldn't travel across the street to see those guys.”

Trump saying such things as wanting to “make America a winner” and “make our military strong” is extremely crass to the Left; repulsive as showing Dracula the cross.

Despite being drilled by the Left to hate their country, I believe American youths instinctively desire to love their homeland. Trump is making it okay to say it out loud.

Even some Republicans are uncomfortable with Trump boldly advocating for America; vowing to make decisions in our best interest. Well trained by the Left, most professional politicians cringe hearing Trump say take the oil, make Mexico pay for the wall and stop giving money to countries that hate us. Talk of putting America first infuriates liberals; deeming it racist and insensitive to the global community.

Ann Coulter is a rare voice on the big stage clamoring for an immigration policy rooted in America's best interest rather than people to whom we owe nothing. Most pundits fear Leftists branding them racist, heartless and cruel. Consequently, Coulter's unapologetic common sense is rare.

Not only do Leftists support Obama governing against America's best interest, they have been cheerleaders for his long list of decisions designed to tear down our country. Obama's latest betrayal is his insane Iran nuke deal.

Displaying off-the-chain condescension, Obama repeatedly tells us, issue after issue, we are not seeing what we are obviously seeing. For example. Obama says his deal prevents Iran from getting a nuclear bomb. Meanwhile, it is obvious to the world that Obama is green-lighting Iran acquiring a nuclear bomb. Obama's ego is boundless. For crying out loud, Iran is already breaking the deal.

Despite this Administrations' pattern of telling us we are not seeing what we are obviously seeing, Admiral Lyons says Obama's strategy is simple for any thinking American to see. It's anti-American; anti-western. It's pro-Islamic. It's pro-Iranian and pro-Muslim Brotherhood.”

Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Kerry know Americans would reject dethroning us as the world super power and making citizens subservient to government. Insidiously, this Administration masks its betrayals with lofty words like fairness, compassion and patriotism. Obama's definition of patriotism includes opening our borders to illegals – taking our guns – taxing businesses out-of-business – repealing Constitutional freedoms and addicting as many able-body Americans to government assistance as possible.

Then along comes this outsider untamed by PC. Fearlessly, he speaks the truth. Wait a minute. This is a crazy way to run a country. I'm gonna make America great again! The people heard and responded positively. The Left is outraged.

This is not an endorsement of Trump for president. I am simply saying the Left's hatred of Trump's message reflects their hatred of America and those who love her.

My wife and I were a very nervous and excited young couple purchasing our first home. Our home builder was a dear friend of my parents. Upon going to closing, there were numerous odds and ends the builder had not completed. He vowed to complete my home asap and asked that I sign a paper for the bank stating that he completed all the work on my home.

My mom cautioned me not to sign the paper. Mom said, “Eaten bread is soon forgotten.” I ignored Mom's counsel. Sure enough, after my builder received his check from the bank, I had to chase him for over a year to complete my home.

Just like my builder said whatever necessary to get paid, politicians make voter-pleasing promises on the campaign trail. After they are elected, they forget their promises. Therefore, the final Jeopardy question is – Which GOP presidential contender will keep their word if elected? Having been burnt so many times, trustworthiness, character and backbone must be paramount in selecting our nominee.

In this primary season, we have witnessed honorable conservative candidates dialing back their original comments or apologizing due to pressure from the mainstream media and the candidate's handlers. This raises concerns in me about how these candidates will holdup under world class attacks once they are in the WH.

Leftists (mainstream media, Democrats and liberals) viciously insulted and accused president Ronald Reagan of every nasty thing imaginable. It takes a rare human being to stand firm in the midst of 24/7 relentless character assassination. Thus, my question. Which GOP contender will follow through with their conservative promises?

At the top of my list is Senator Ted Cruz. On several issues, Cruz seems to always end up on the opposite side of the GOP establishment and Leftist Democrats; in-sync with We the People. Cruz never follows the crowd. Eagles fly alone.

Remember Cruz getting hammered by Democrats and Republicans for fighting to defund Obamacare? Win or lose, We the People desperately needed to see someone on our side not simply rolling over and playing dead in surrender to Obama as he transforms our great country.

Cruz boldly says he is a Christian. During the GOP debate, I was struck by how naturally Cruz shared his dad's testimony; transformed from an alcoholic abandoning his wife and three year old Ted to giving his heart to Jesus and reuniting with his family. Politicians do not speak that freely about God and Jesus these days in the political public square. Obviously, Ted Cruz rejected the Left and MSM's memo banning God. As I said, eagles fly alone.

Some GOP contenders are wishy-washy on illegal immigration, even joining the liberal mainstream media in calling Trump racist for addressing it. Imagine how easily such a president's position could be swayed when he or she is trashed by the media.

Another GOP contender hopes to win black votes by exempting them from having to show a photo ID to vote. We do not want a president who is willing to surrender to the absurd Democrat party lie that it is too challenging for blacks to find their way to the DMV to acquire a photo ID. Americans do not want another president pandering to various voting blocs and selectively enforcing our laws.

While any of our GOP 17 are far superior to another socialist in the WH, a few are GOP establishment, big donor and Chamber of Commerce Trojan horses. They talk a good conservative game before the election. But once in the WH, they will prove to be a Manchurian candidate of the Washington cartel.

The Bible repulses the MSM like showing Dracula the cross. Still, Cruz quoted scripture, “you shall know them by their fruit.” Cruz said we see lots of “campaign conservatives.” He added that to win in 2016, we need a consistent fiscal, social and national security conservative. Cruz also touted that he has been a defender of life his entire career. This guy paints in bold colors folks.

Cruz looked America squarely in the eye and made bold promises during the GOP debate causing him to surge in the polls. On his first day as president, Cruz vows to rescind every illegal and unconstitutional executive action taken by Obama. He will instruct the DOJ to investigate the shocking videos and prosecute Planned Parenthood for any criminal violations. He will defend religious liberty, cancel the Iran deal and move the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

Cruz also vows to repeal Obamacare.

Again, as I stated, while all of our contenders know how to say what We the People want to hear, the $64,000 Question (1950s TV game show) is which one is “for real?” Who will keep their word?

Here is Cruz's last statement of the GOP debate. “I will keep my word. My father fled Cuba, and I will fight to defend liberty because my family knows what it's like to lose it.”

I believe him, folks. I believe him.

BOOKER T WASHINGTONBorn in 1856, Booker T. Washington was an amazing black educator, orator, author and adviser to US presidents.Isn't it interesting that black men and women in America way back then were achieving extraordinary success? Meanwhile, liberals and Democrats claim America is such a hellhole of racism that blacks need cradle-to-grave welfare, affirmative action, lowered standards and numerous other special concessions to survive. Why am I seemingly the only black person on the planet highly offended by the Left's bigotry of lowered expectations? Actually, I know other blacks who share my frustration with blacks who think liberals and Democrats are their friends.Booker T. Washington so succinctly and perfectly described black race profiteers, I am convinced he personally knew Al Sharpton. Thus, Sharpton must have a portrait of himself in his attic like Dorian Gray. The portrait collects Sharpton's plethora of sins and keeps his appearance from reflecting his true age. I suspect this despicable race hustling conman has been peddling crap/hate for a very, very long time.Washington really nailed Sharpton and the Black Lives (Lies) Matter movement in his following quote.

There is another class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs – partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

Can you believe Washington said that back in the late 1800s? Black “losers” (a little Trump lingo) were exploiting race and looking for a free ride. As the saying goes, there in nothing new under the sun.So, here we go again. To commemorate the one year anniversary of the death of black thug Michael Brown, Black Lives Matter thugs trashed Ferguson again. Liberals still advise government to walk on eggshells to appease the BLM terrorists.Michael Brown robbed and assaulted the clerk of a convenience store. He died attacking a police officer. Period. End of subject. Why in the name of all that is righteous would intelligent people, black and white, reward this thug with civil rights hero status? How offensive is that? What a slap in the face to the legacies of real civil rights icons?Black Lives Matter thugs are allowed to roam the country wrecking havoc. At a major speaking event, liberal Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders allowed BLM thugs to storm the stage, take his microphone and run him off his own stage. How wimpy is that?Democrat presidential contender Martin O'Malley also allowed BLM thugs to hijack his event. O'Malley wimped out and pandered to the rude thugs. O'Malley's attempt at appeasement emboldened the thugs to demand that he apologize for daring to say “white lives and all lives matter.” O'Malley complied.Sanders and O'Malley displayed typical Democratic Party weakness and politically correct liberal thinking. Liberals believe because blacks were slaves in America, whites must be careful not to offend and have no moral authority to ever tell blacks no.These two Democrats immediately waving the white flag of surrender to BLM perfectly illustrates why Democrats must never be in-charge of our national defense.Black Lives Matter thugs are bullying everyone because they can. These evil hate-filled race profiteers ignored the facts in every incident in which a black is killed. The movement is a scam. BLM is really about gaining political power. It is not about resolving issues or racial unity. Nor do they want as Washington brilliantly stated, “the Negro to lose his grievances...”The insidiously evil movement is unworthy of respect from the American people. Pandering to BLM is a huge mistake; emboldening them to behave more outrageously and make more absurd demands.In Boston, BLM banned whites from a public forum.At a Chicago suburb high school white students were barred from attending a Black Lives Matter event.BLM leaders say they will “shut down” the Republican National Convention.In Denver, BLM bullies say screw history, we want the name of the city's Stapleton neighborhood changed.BLM thugs began digging up a confederate general's grave. .BLM launched a campaign to deface civil war monuments across America.BLM thugs are burning American and confederate flags.BLM has intimidated numerous major corporations. Cowering in fear, major store chains have stopped selling confederate flags.What continues to boggle my mind is why do liberal activists always fight for symbolic changes which do not impact blacks' lives in any way. And yet, not only do liberals ignore, they verbally beat up anyone who dares to address real issues plaguing the black community. What is up with that?Bottom line, America needs to stop pandering to Black Lives Matter haters and race profiteers. Tell these terrorists no. Tell them to shut up and go away. If not, the infectious BLM disease will continue to grow and spread, nurturing racial hate, pounding on it's chest and poisoning our great land.Lloyd Marcus, The Unhyphenated AmericanChairman, Conservative Campaign Committee

me-march   9/12/09  209631  Washington DC   Post Photos by Richard A. Lipski  Conservative groups of people fill the West Side of the U.S. Capitol during a protest rally against government spending and the President Obama healthcare plan.    StaffPhoto imported to Merlin on  Sat Sep 12 15:52:22 2009

Nothing ignited my late mom's Baltimore living-in-the-hood anger more than someone “messing” with one of her “nine months” (her kids). I have a similar protective reaction to attacks on the Tea Party/We the People.

Not only have We the People had to endure mainstream media, Democrat and GOP establishment attacks, some on our side are attacking us for not being “smart enough” to reject Donald Trump. I say, have a little compassion for us. We are witnessing our beloved once great nation becoming a banana republic (dishonest and lawless government) right before our eyes. As patriots, we have faithfully done all the right things. And yet, the wrong things keep happening.

On Fox News Brit Hume called us (the Tea Party) the far right. Senator John McCain called patriots who attended an anti-illegal immigration rally “crazies.”  House Majority leader John Boehner called us the far right. Will somebody please tell me what is “crazy” and “far right” about expecting government to function according to our laws and the Constitution?

And then, these arrogant (language I will not use as a Christian) have the audacity to call us stupid for rallying behind Donald Trump.

Where is the compassion for We the people? Yes, my heart goes out for the people. Political Action Committees and GOP candidates raised funds, promising to git-r-done only to leave patriots suffering a string of broken promises. Adding insult to injury, betrayers in the GOP which we gave the House and the Senate call us names; even launching a war on conservatives and the Tea Party.  For crying out loud, how much more are We the People expected to take?

To date, my favorite presidential contender is Ted Cruz. Cruz gets it. He sympathizes with all We the People have gone through and vows to fight to make things right, when given the chance.

In essence, both parties said, screw you to We the People. Our Washington cartel is going to further its agenda and there “ain't” nothing you Tea Party yahoos can do about it. The GOP took us (We the People) out to sea and threw us overboard. Trump threw us a lifeline. Do not attack us for accepting it.

Imagine a fire is raging out-of-control consuming my home. A gang of Hells Angels bikers approaches from over the horizon. They jump off their bikes and begin helping me extinguish the fire. Do I throw up my hands yelling, “Stop! I don't approve of your lifestyle”? Or, do I simply say thank you?

Please do not conclude I am comparing Trump to the Hells Angels. I am simply saying while you may not agree or even like everything about Trump, the man has unquestionably positively impacted the political landscape. For one thing, illegal immigration would not be on the table if Trump had not made it an issue; standing firm, while bombarded by both parties and the MSM.

Also, the way Trump has dealt with the liberal bias mainstream media has influenced others not to be so easily pushed around by these bullies. With the Left obsessed with forcing conservatives/Republicans to apologize, Trump refuses to go there. It drives the Left crazy. I love it!

The Left regard apologies as blood in the water to totally destroy, devour and end the campaign of a conservative/Republican.

The Fox News strategy to “get Trump” during the GOP debate was extremely unfortunate. I agree with Mark Levin who said Fox blew a major opportunity.  Twenty-four million Americans tuned in to the debate greeted with soap opera questions rather than exposing the horrors Obama has released upon our country and how the GOP contenders plan to fix it.

For example: Seventy percent of the population is unaware of the butchery and black marketing of baby body parts happening behind the walls of Planned Parenthood which is still praised by the Democrats.  Why on earth was the debate moderators focused on a feud between Trump and Rosie O'Donnell? Truly unfortunate.

By the way, Bill Clinton was surrounded by affairs and scandals including allegations of rape; none of which came up during past debates.

Ted Cruz understands Trump's popularity and thinks it is unwise for the GOP to “smack Donald Trump with a stick.”  Rather than joining the chorus of those calling patriots idiots for liking Trump, Cruz understands and sympathizes with We the People. Cruz's message is make me your president and I vow to champion your cause.

Cruz was short-changed during the GOP debate receiving very little time on camera. Still, Cruz's closing comments caused him to soar in the polls; direct, strong and sincere.  I am confident Cruz's numbers will continue to grow.

I will not judge or be upset with my brother and sister patriots who are high on Trump. Any of our 17 contenders are far superior to a Democrat who will surely continue Obama's evil transformation of America. My gut tells me Ted Cruz will break the tape finishing first.

sanctuarycities

The Left (liberal mainstream media) practically had a ticker tape parade for Ohio Gov John Kasich for answers he gave on two issues during the GOP debate.  Liberals' praise of Kasich shows they have chosen emotion over logical reasoned thinking. This makes liberals irresponsible and dangerous. These people must never be in charge.

The Left praised Kasich for his entitlement program that is $1.4 billion in the red, thus far – in only 18 months. Kasich defended his program saying it was the Christian thing to do.

First of all, the Bible does not support stupid business practices and irresponsible spending of other people's money. Proverbs 22:29 “Have you seen a man who is expert in his business? he will take his place before kings; his place will not be among low persons.”

In 1972 Hurricane Agnes flooded our small black Baltimore suburban community. Dad and my brother rescued residents from the roofs of their homes in a rowboat. As a community leader my dad, Rev. Marcus, assisted residents in acquiring relief checks from the Red Cross. My parents were among those who lost everything in the flood. What if Dad took his family's relief check and distributed it among needy neighbors? Liberals would praise Dad for his compassion for the poor. The reality is Dad's behavior, though well-intended, would be irresponsible to my mom and younger siblings living at home. Such common sense adult thinking seems to escape liberals.

Gov Kasich furthering an entitlement program that is void of economic sense is irresponsible to taxpayers, no matter how well-intended. Feelings trump common sense these days in America. Liberals will call me a mean Republican who does not care about people for suggesting that politicians spend responsibly. Most liberals are brain-dead emotion-driven fools.

Kasich's answer regarding gay marriage was the second issue that won him great praise from liberals. Kasich said while he is a traditional guy, the courts made gay marriage law and he will comply. Kasich added that he attended a friend's gay wedding because we must love people. I am sorry Gov Kasich and Leftists, but it is absurd to suggest that loving someone means embracing everything they do. Once again, more brain-dead emotion-driven liberal reasoning. Sometimes, love means rejecting a friend or family member's behavior.

My daughter married a woman. I explained to my daughter why as a Christian, I could not support their union. She understood. We still have a great loving relationship, though we differ when the Patriots play the Broncos. Go Manning!

Here is an interesting observation. Like many youths, a handful of Dad's adult grand-kids have gone through a rebellious stage; straying from their Christian upbringing like the prodigal son. Each of them hid their sinful behaviors from my dad. They hold Dad's opinion in high regard with a desire to make him proud. Even my daughter seems to care more about my dad's opinion of her than mine.

I asked myself, why? Dad is not a tyrant in any way. He is loving and easygoing. So why do the millennials in our family care so much about their granddad's opinion of them.

The answer is all of their lives, they have witnessed the consistency in Dad's Christian walk and his commitment to biblical standards. The grand-kids know Dad loves each of them dearly, but is faithful to his commitment to Christ. My daughter and the other grand-kids love Dad greatly and give him their utmost respect.

Perhaps, millennials are looking for trustworthy leaders/politicians who stand for something. GOP presidential contender Sen Ted Cruz comes to mind.  Too many wimpy baby-boomers embrace every Leftist anti-Christian and anti-American socialist/progressive agenda item; desiring to be thought of as modern and enlightened.

People in positions of power who place feelings above common sense, responsibility and reasoned thinking are dangerous. They (liberals) must never be in charge.

Take sanctuary cities. These are liberal governed US cities that have officially decided to disobey federal law by sheltering illegal aliens.

Liberalism has been described as a “mental disease.” For whatever reasons, liberals who run sanctuary cities feel it is unfair that we in America have so much. Consequently, they roll out the red carpet to illegals; gifting them welfare, college tuition and benefits unavailable to legal American citizens.

Years ago, a businessman friend moved to California. He made more money than ever. And yet, he had to move back to the east coast because the cost of living was too high. Amazingly, my friend said if he was an illegal alien, he and his family could have survived just fine in California. Does that make sense? Of course not. I wrote a satirical song about his experience titled, “Can't Afford the Sunshine.”

Talk about crazy brain-dead thinking – even with epidemic high numbers of murders, rapes and assaults on Americans by repeat criminal illegals, nothing seems to soften sanctuary cities' commitment to welcome and protect illegals.  Wacko liberals in charge are dangerous, folks.

Liberals wrongfully get high marks for compassion. The truth is real compassionate leadership makes wise responsible decisions. Liberals define a compassionate nation as how long that line is of people showing up for their daily allotment of free fish. In America today, 94 million Americans are unemployed. And yet, they have all the necessities and many of the luxuries of working Americans. Forty-seven million Americans are on food stamps. Millions of capable Americans are receiving disability.

Conservatives define compassion as liberating citizens from government. Government handouts are always accompanied with government dictates and controls. There “ain't” no free lunch.

Conservative government says we will gladly give you fish for the short term. However, our greater goal is to help you experience the dignity, pride and independence of catching your own fish. We will get rid of the overreaching government controls on catching fish and help you acquire a fishing rod.

Who do you want running the show (your county) folks – brain-dead emotion-driven liberals or adult conservatives?

Death to AmericaJosh, in Israel, emailed me. He said they are“living under the specter of the Iran deal and see where this is all heading.” They are extremely concerned. Josh said, “For starters what even gave him the right to lead such "negotiations" on behalf of the world? Who anointed him king, anyway?” Josh concluded, “Either Obama's deal is insane or deliberate.”Well Josh, the US mainstream media has for all intensive purposes made Obama king. Concerned Americans say we are resembling a banana republic (dishonest government ignoring laws). The MSM aggressively promotes whatever Obama wants the public to know and blocks what he does not. For example: Everyone knows about the shooting of Cecil the lion. Due to a MSM insidious blackout of the story, 70% of Americans do not know about the real-life horror movie happening behind the walls of Planned Parenthood. The vile scumbags at PP are illegally black marketing baby body parts (mostly black). Cause for PP staff to high-five and celebrate is when they score an intact dead baby because the profit is higher.Think about that folks. The MSM has made sure the masses know nothing about Obama and Democrats supporting and covering up the PP illegal baby body parts chop shop scandal. And yet, everyone knows about the death of a lion. The MSM also makes sure (king) Obama can lie with impunity. In my youth, I naively thought public officials cannot lie because we have video. If Obama lies to America and the MSM refuses to call him on it, does it make a sound? Yo Morgan, I need you and that Black dude (Jack Black) to sell my nuke deal to my peeps. Whenever Obama wants to scam blacks his language becomes more urban. Black actor Morgan Freeman and other Hollywood liberals produced a video, “#Iran Deal is Awesome!” – to sell Obama's nightmarish deal. The lie-filled video is an outrageous insult to Americans' intelligence.Clearly, Obama knows the MSM will help sell his lies. The Iran ego-driven irresponsible nuke deal is Obama urinating on America and Israel's head while his minions tell us his golden nectar is divine rain that will ultimately produce beautiful flowers of peace. Frustratingly, black race loyalists, white guilt ridden Obama sycophants and Leftists will sigh and say, “Isn't he wonderful?”My announcer will tell you how Obama's deal screws everyone.

Thanks Lloyd, and hereeee's what Iran gets – over one hundred billion dollars to further its role as the world's greatest exporters of terrorism. That's right folks. The US will be funding terrorism, against itself.

The guy Obama made the deal with, Ayatollah Khamenei, along with Iranian hardliners chant, “Death to America!” Ayatollah Khamenei's new book, “Palestine” instructs how to outsmart the US and destroy Israel. Obama says chill-out, Khamenei does not mean it.

Obama says inspectors will have 24/7 access to Iran's nuclear facilities to insure they are not making a bomb. Not true. The deal says inspectors must give Iran 24 days notice which Iran can stretch even longer. Do I really need to elaborate on the absurdity of this Obama concession?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Obama's nuke deal will spark a middle east nuclear arms race. Well duh! If the neighborhood bully gets a gun, doesn't self-preservation dictate that neighbors rush to acquire guns to defend themselves from the bully? Is Obama that stupid or is he, as Josh suggested, “deliberately” endangering Israel?

But wait folks, there's more. Everyone on the planet knows Iran will break the deal and immediately pursue a nuclear bomb. In 2013, Obama backed Israel's right to use force to stop them. Unbelievably, Obama's Iran nuke deal requires the US to defend Iran against Israel. Can you imagine the US actually fighting our ally to protect terrorism? How satanic is that?

Regarding Israel (Genesis 12:3): “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee.”– God

And now, back to you, Lloyd!

To my fellow black Christians who are going along with Obama's evil deal, you should be ashamed of yourselves; choosing skin-color loyalty over God's chosen people. The Bible says, “Before I formed thee in thy mother's womb, I knew thee...” To provide intact dead babies for its clients, PP abortion doctors deliver the entire baby except for the head (partial birth abortion). Then, the doctor inserts scissors into the base of the baby's skull and forces the scissors up into its brain to kill the baby. Whether you are a Bible believer or not, your gut tells you this is evil. This fall, congress will vote whether or not to continue giving PP billions of taxpayer dollars in support of this evil. In less the 50 days, congress will vote thumps up or down on Obama's insane Iran nuke deal. Thumps up equals officially turning our backs on our ally, Israel.Brother and sister Americans, if congress fails us on either of these two crucial issues, how can we expect God to bless America?

black-lives-matter

Recently, my black brother shared an unfortunate incident. Years ago, police in two unmarked cars blocked his car. They jumped out pointing guns, demanding that he exit his car. My brother immediately raised his hands, but did not exit his car because he was frozen with fear. An officer pulled him out of his car onto the ground. My brother said, “Calm down! I am not resisting!”

After checking him out, the officers realized he was not their suspect. Rather than sending my brother on his way with an apology, the police framed him. My brother had an unopened six pack of beer on the floor. An officer opened one of the beers and said, “You're under arrest for drunk driving.” The bogus charge did not stick and my brother was released hours later, angry, with a bitter taste in his mouth.

Ironically, my brother's reason for telling me about the incident was to defend the police in the recent shooting and arrests covered 24/7 on CNN. He said the cops who framed him were a few bad apples which are everywhere in every profession. Amen to that. Jesus had 12 disciples and one was a bad apple. My brother made the point that he was not harmed because he submitted to the police's authority. He noted that the blacks in the videos shown on TV did not submit to the police.

My brother's point is correct. In each incident caught on video in which people are second-guessing officer's behavior, bad outcomes could have been avoided had the persons simply respected authority and complied.

A friend of mine is a veteran Baltimore black cop. He told me upon arriving at a scene, a cop must immediately take control of the situation. If not, the cop could end up dead – stabbed in the back by a weepy girlfriend or mom. The most hazardous part of a police officer's job is the routine traffic stop; 62 officers killed 2002- 2011.

Democrats, CNN and other liberal bias media have an insidiously evil agenda to convince black America that Republicans, conservatives and police are out to get them. These Leftists would love to feature my brother's bad boy cops story 24/7; claiming the cops were unequivocally motivated by white racism.

Meanwhile, the Left avoids experiences like mine with police like the plague. In the 80's, an interracial couple robbed a bank, their description matching my wife, me and our car. Police surrounded our car with guns drawn and ordered us out of our car. We complied. They checked us out, apologized and went on their way. We were stopped on another occasion years later. Again, the officers were respectful and professional.

As a young adult, my cousins wife called me in a panic to their home in the hood. My black cousin had a nervous breakdown. He held their two toddler sons hostage in the basement, threatening to kill himself and their boys. First on the scene were two white cops – one young and fit, the other much older and morbidly obese. Masterfully, the old obese cop gained my cousin's trust and talked him out of the basement. “C'mon son, I know life gets tough, but you don't want to do this.” My cousin was arrested, given the mental health assistance he needed and was later released. My cousin is alive, well and a great dad.

Folks, cops kill whites at almost double the rate of blacks.  As a matter of fact, blacks are killed by blacks 93% of the time.  The Left does not want you to know the biggest threat to black lives is other blacks. Despite the Left's Black Lives Matter (blame and hate white America) movement, incidents of blacks killing blacks are on the rise.

The Left is ignoring the stunning numbers of blacks murdered in Chicago by blacks.

In July, Baltimore homicides reached its highest in 43 years, up 60%.

The mainstream media deliberately creating the false impression that cops are the biggest threat to blacks is reprehensible. Proving they do not give a rat's derriere about blacks, the Left refuses to address real issues plaguing black America; multi-generational government dependency; increasing numbers of fatherless households; unprecedented high unemployment under Obama; epidemic school dropouts; black on black homicides and Leftist encouraged moral and cultural decline.

White guys in white hoods, the Aryan nation nor cops are infiltrating black neighborhoods, victimizing residents and murdering blacks. The Left has been fooling blacks with its blame-everything-on-whitey tactic for decades; keeping blacks voting for their supposed Democrat saviors.

As young as 9 or 10, I realized the blame-everything-on-whitey excuse was a lie. My family lived on the sixth floor of a Baltimore project high-rise building. The elevators were often not working due to vandalism. The stairwells were pitch black due to broken light bulbs and smelled of urine. The crunch sound under foot echoing off the concrete walls was due to broken liquor bottles. I knew whites were not sneaking in at night, peeing in our stairwells.

Not to indict everyone who lived in the projects, some neighbors kept their apartments immaculate. Even as a child, I concluded that poverty (and ghetto) was a mindset rather than simply an absence of money.

The Black Lives Matter movement, “white privilege” and so on are founded on lies. They are despicable tools to exploit blacks' emotions. These Leftist scams have resulted in what can be described as black terror cells. Police are assassinated, outbreaks of black flash mob attacks and innocent whites assaulted, raped and murdered.

Outrageously, Black Lives Matter thugs threaten to “shut down” the Republican National Convention.  Notice the stupid, hateful and racist assumption that white Republicans are a threat to black lives? Imagine if the Tea Party announced a plan to shut down the Democrat National Convention. After recovering from multiple convulsions of pleasure from being given such an opportunity to demonize the Tea Party, Leftist media would bombard the public with 24/7 news coverage; branding the Tea Party racist, sexist and homophobic.

Rest assured, you will not hear any meaningful criticism from the MSM, Democrats or Obama regarding Black Lives Matter thugs arrogantly assaulting free speech. Quite the opposite. Leftists are behind the scene cheering on the Black Lives Matter thugs.

Wake up black America. The Left is playin' y'all, again.

Exposed: America's Enemies Within

PARTIAL BIRTH

My 87 year old black Dad called to say he wanted to congratulate me for my perseverance. “You finally have me and all your siblings (4) agreeing with you.”

My deep desire is to alert my son, daughter and other non-political hard working Americans of the moral, spiritual and cultural evil threatening to overtake our great nation. No longer are we simply engaged in a battle of ideas – republican vs democrat – liberal vs conservative. America's choice of governing has become far more daunting – light vs darkness – good vs evil. “Choose ye this day, whom you will serve.”

Despite Leftist merchants of evil using big words and arrogant condescension to convince us that morality is relative, we instinctively know some things are good and some things are bad. Equally annoying is Leftists' air of superiority – claiming to care more than us commoners about equality, saving the planet and all life; their evil intentions hidden beneath a shroud of faux compassion.

Leftists have what I call their no-pictures-please policy. They get fuming mad whenever anyone accurately describes, visualizes or shows pictures of procedures and behaviors the Left has demanded that Americans embrace. For example: Leftists want women to freely kill their babies all the way up to moments before birth. The last thing they want the public to see is video of the partial birth abortion procedure.

Yes, I am unequivocally saying liberals/Democrats (Leftists) are forcing their evil agenda down America's throat. “Forcing” is exactly what the Left is doing. Americans typically vote against Leftists' desire to make abhorrent behavior mainstream and transforming America into a welfare state. Leftists send in their activist judges to overturn the will of We the People. After verbally slapping us around calling us racist, sexist and homophobic, Leftist judges make what the people voted against into law.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, …, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” As I lay out the facts, you judge for yourself.

Videos exposing Planned Parenthood's inhuman thriving baby-body-parts-are-us business have horrified the nation.  Americans are demanding that government stop giving PP $500 million a year of taxpayers' money.

Well, guess where the majority of PP chop shops are located? Black neighborhoods. PP founder Margaret Sanger pulled no punches. PP was started to deal with “the negro problem.” Sanger believed blacks were inferior and bred too often. Black abortions are disproportionately higher than whites.

Blacks who have not been seduced by the dark side are sounding the alarm letting blacks know they are aborting themselves into extinction. www.blackgenocide.org A billboard in a black neighborhood read, “The Most Dangerous Place for An African-American Is in the Womb.”  Guess who was outraged and demanded the billboard be taken down? Al Sharpton and other assorted Leftists who claim to be advocates for blacks.

Sharpton is leading the charge in the hate inspired “Black Lives Matter” movement; founded on the lie that white cops routinely murder blacks. I guess black baby lives do not matter to Sharpton when they are killed by his Leftists homeys at PP.

Here's another thing that causes one to scratch their head. Leftists are fanatical about protecting the rain-forest. They say it may hold a cure for AIDS. And yet, most Leftists are obsessed with killing babies. Even after a baby survives a failed abortion, Leftists demand that medical staff let the baby die. Amazingly, a law had to be passed to end this barbaric practice.  Why haven't Leftists considered the possibility that the doctor or researcher with a cure for cancer, AIDS and other diseases may have been among the 55 million babies aborted in America since 1973.

Leftists are defending PP black marketing baby body parts. And yet, these same Leftists are tearfully outraged over the death of a furry animal and fight to their death to protect trees and imprisoned cop killers. There is something seriously wrong in people who possess such a mindset.

Good morning Ma'am. We appreciate your patronage over the years. However, our religious conscience prevents us from baking a wedding cake for your marriage to a woman. I imagine this is pretty much how the conversation went. Well, all heck broke loose. Christian bakers Aaron and Melisa Klein had to close down their shop and state ordered to pay a lesbian couple $135,000 in absurd damages.

Check this out folks. America rallied behind the Kleins and started a donations account. When the account reached $100,000, homosexuals pressured Go-Fund-Me into shutting down the account – claiming Go-Fund-Me was supporting hate.

Okay, so first homosexual activists fined the Kleins $135k. Then, they attempted to block efforts to pay the fine. So, the fine is not about paying the lesbian couple, it is about destroying the Kleins. In essence, Leftists want to hang the Kleins' economically bloody carcass in the public square as a warning to Christians who refuse to betray their faith. Can you say an assault on Christians' constitutional “free exercise of religion”, boys and girls?

Scripture says “no weapon formed against us shall prosper” and “what they meant for evil, God meant for good.” The Kleins' account has reached $372,000, thus far. Praise God!

The Kleins have five kids with whom they planned to leave their business. Leftists have other plans for the Klein family.

Dad calling me about his and my siblings' conversion was really cool. However, I am constantly thinking and praying for wisdom to awaken fellow blacks and other Americans continuously played by Leftists. I rest in the knowledge that surrendering to evil is the only way we fail.

Interviewers have asked on numerous occasions, “How do you endure the name calling and hate you receive as a black conservative Republican?” I reply, “It is easy because I know I am on the right side....God's.”

Thank God Mr Cruz is in Washington

Ted Cruz McConnell Lied 2015

My email account was on fire, everyone excited about Sen Ted Cruz calling Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell a liar on the Senate floor. Cruz cited each of Obama's unprecedented unlawful power grabs and repeals of our freedoms that the GOP promised to block, only to stab us (We the People/Tea Party) in the back.  Immediately, I thought, “Thank God Ted Cruz is in Washington.”

Before I go on, I wish to address a guy whom I will call Ned. Whenever I praise a conservative, Ned emails to correct me, claiming the conservative is a deceitful traitor. When I share reasons for optimism, Ned vehemently disagrees, even seeming a bit angry that I would think our efforts could possibly make a difference in America's corrupt political environment. Ned always sees the glass less than half empty. I guess we need people like Ned to keep us balanced. Although, I am not quite sure about that.

Sure enough, in response to patriots' giving Cruz rave reviews for speaking truth to Washington power, Ned ripped into Cruz about questionable votes. Folks, I realize Ted Cruz is not perfect. But then, which presidential candidate is? Jesus is not running for president in 2016.

As a member of the Tea Party since it began, Cruz going down the list of GOP betrayals brought back memories. Remember how we fought and worked our butts off to give the GOP the House, then the Senate? We worked to elect Republicans to stop Obama from rolling out the welcome mat to illegals.

Over a million of us showed up in DC to protest Obamacare.

I thought of all the travel miles, funds, blood, sweat and tears sacrificed by Tea Party Americans; patriots who simply want lawful Constitutional government.

I thought about how Obama sent out his liberal mainstream media air force to bomb us with accusations of racism against the first black president; hoping to soften and diminish our ranks. The Tea Party is not racist, nor do we hate anybody.

In his speech, Cruz did two things that were quite remarkable. First – Cruz exposed the good-cop, bad-cop personal and corporate enrichment scam both parties have been playing on the American people. Second – Cruz spoke with unprecedented clarity. He did not say McConnell misspoke or McConnell was disingenuous. Cruz said McConnell lied.

Cruz has been on a roll speaking the truth, making mincemeat of Obama minions and Leftist ideologues.  He really exposes DC insider political corruption in his book, “A Time For Truth.”

It was refreshing that when pressed by the liberal bias media, Cruz refused to jump on the destroy Donald Trump bandwagon. This tells me that Cruz has backbone and will not automatically play by the Left's rules of engagement.

It is fair game for GOP presidential contenders to express their disapproval of Trump's style and tactics. However, when a GOP presidential contender joins the MSM in its evil attempt to brand Trump a racist for simply addressing illegal immigration, red flags go up regarding the character of that contender.

It tells me the contender will say whatever necessary to win. I call that “soulless” politicking.

Such behavior has the awful stench of what happened in Mississippi. In the primary, Republican Thad Cochran's camp joined Democrats in branding the Tea Party racist. To beat the Tea Party conservative, Cochran's people despicably made lying phone calls to black voters saying the Tea Party candidate would turn back the clock on racial progress. This is the kind of deplorable evil divisive totally self-serving politicking Cruz exposes in his book.

The GOP presidential field is rich with honorable contenders. I ask myself the following question.

When I lay my head on my pillow at night which candidate winning the WH will cause me to sleep the most peacefully? Who is most likely to remain true to their promises to We the People; fight to repeal Obamacare, end the invasion of our borders, defend life and traditional values?

Who believes in Conservatism enough to throw a lifeline of inspiration to those drowning in the treacherous deep dark sea of Obama's welfare state America? Who will pray as the song says, “Lord lift us up where we belong” as Americans?

Currently, I believe that candidate is Sen Ted Cruz.

Realizing the fruitlessness of trying to instill a bit of hope/sunshine into Ned, I delete his emails without opening them. Ned has gotten creative. After lunch the waiter brought the check and my fortune cookie. The message inside said, “Ted Cruz sucks! – Ned” (Just kidding)

NEW YORK - MAY 10: Donald Trump attends "The Celebrity Apprentice" season finale at the at American Museum of Natural History on May 10, 2009 in New York City. (Photo by Brad Barket/Getty Images)

I know. I know. As a veteran political activist, I am suppose to be extremely upset with Donald Trump, out there saying what some on both sides of the political aisle consider to be outrageous things.

But folks, I cannot help myself. It is thrilling to watch someone in the arena of ideas not playing the game according to the dictates of the Left. For far too long, our anti-America enemies on the Left have been allowed to set the rules of engagement. The Left dictates what truths we can say out loud, what words we are permitted to use and what is racist or mean.

Please note. I am neither supporting nor opposing Trump's comments. I am celebrating Trump's refreshing unprecedented fearlessness in dealing with the iron-fist out-of-control bullying tactics of the Left/MSM.

I guess it goes back to my childhood living on the mean-streets of Baltimore projects. I detested bullies. They were cowards and mean opportunists. My cousin Jimmy, who loved to fight, taught me the power of a strong military. I was small as a child. When bullies took my lunch money, cousin Jimmy ended the problem. Nothing serious happened, but the bullies knew not to “mess” with Jimmy's cousin, Peanut (my nickname).

I view the mainstream media and their Leftists partners as the ultimate bullies, whipping Americans into submission, silencing our right to free speech. It sticks in my craw that daring to state an opinion other than the Left's combined consensus on an issue means your derriere is grass.

It also distresses me that whenever a conservative/Republican says something that the Left chooses to distort and become hysterical about, folks on our side run to microphones to say, “What so-and-so should have said or really meant to say is...” Why surrender to the Left's distort-and-become-hysterical tactic?

Why kowtow to the Left/MSM, especially when we know they are wrongly interpreting conservatives' comments on purpose; publishing distortions, exaggerations and lies about what a particular conservative/Republican said?

The Left/MSM allows Democrats to make off-the-cuff outrageous inflammatory statements insulting millions of Americans. Waters – “The tea party can go straight to hell!” Grayson -- “Republicans want you to die quickly.” Schultz – “Republicans want to see you dead.” Carson – “The tea party wants blacks hanging on a tree.” Obama about middle America – “Clinging to their Bibles and guns.” Indicting millions, President Carter said an “overwhelming portion” of the opposition to Obama is because “he is a black man.”

Remember the Democrats' outrageous lying ad showing a Republican pushing an old lady in a wheelchair over a cliff?

Then, there was the absurd shameful irresponsible Democrat ad warning blacks that if they do not vote, they will need to send their kids to school wearing bulletproof vests to protect them from being shot by white police.

Has the MSM demanded that these Democrats apologize/walk back any of their false statements or hate generating ads? No.

Meanwhile, a conservative/Republican has to market test every word that comes out of their mouths, less they suffer the Left's hysteria/wrath and shoulda-coulda-woulda from fellow conservatives/Republicans. Folks, with the MSM deck so stacked against us, standing up to the Left is extremely challenging. I just wish our side was more forgiving and supportive of our fighters.

Name me one occasion in which a conservative/Republican walking back a statement caused the Left/MSM to forgive him or her. Never. To the Left, an apology is blood in the water, causing a media feeding frenzy to devour a conservative or Republican. Every time one sheepishly apologizes, it is another notch on the Left's gun barrel; letting the world know they are in charge.

This is what makes Trump's defiance so remarkable and exhilarating. Thus far Trump has not fallen for the Left's tactic and become terrorized into walking back his comments. As a matter of fact, Trump routinely doubles down on his original statements. Sorry folks, but I love it. There's a new sheriff in town. His name is Donald Trump.

Another trick of the Left/MSM is to claim that their hysterical reactions reflect the feelings of a majority of the American people. However, Trump's addressing illegal immigration shot him to the top of the polls.

Some say Trump is muddying the waters for “serious GOP candidates.” I am not going to argue either way regarding that point. I will say that it is about time someone stood up to these vipers (Leftist media).

A recent incident bears witness to how far PC and Leftist bullying has gotten out of hand; infecting the Democratic party base. Democrat presidential candidate Martin O'Malley was speaking at a Democrat Netroots conference. He was interrupted by protesters screaming about “black lives matter”. The protesters demanded that O'Malley repeat their mantra. Allowing the protesters to hijack the meeting, O'Malley said black lives matter. But when O'Malley added white lives and all lives matter, the audience exploded in outrage, erupting with boos and curse words.

Now, here is the kicker folks, Democrat presidential candidate Martin O'Malley actually apologized for saying white lives and all lives matter.  That is crazy and speaks volumes.

Am I grateful for what Donald Trump has done? You betcha!

America's Trump Card Trumping the Left

Donald Trump

Catching bits of the news, my wife asked, “Did Donald Trump say something against Mexicans?” I replied, “No, Trump simply dared to state statistical facts exposing the high criminal element among the illegals flooding across our border.” I've read horrific articles about the torture, rape and murder of Mexican women and children during their illegal journey to America  ; not to mention the gang members and other bad people invading our homeland.  The probability of getting raped is so high crossing the border illegally women take birth control.

And yet, Trump was not suppose to alert the American people. The Left immediately went into attack and destroy mode – trying to brand Trump a hater of Mexicans.

The Left had a cow when Trump stated the truth because welcoming illegals, regardless of the caliber, is how the Left restocks the Democratic Party with new uneducated and unskilled future voters who will be dependent on government and vote for Democrats who promise more freebies.

To silence and hopefully destroy Trump, the Left employed its standard never-failing tactic of changing the subject and taking its opponent's comments to mean the extreme. Case in point: Addressing illegal immigration means Trump hates Mexicans.

Hillary “not-an-ounce-of-scruples-in-her” Clinton took Trump's comments to the most outrageous extreme, attempting to blame him for the mass shooting at the church.  How do you get to mass murder from Trump simply telling the truth about illegal immigration? Hillary believes voters are clueless and her Leftist media buddies will help her despicable nonsensical indictment to stick to Trump in their minds.

As expected, businesses are cowardly disassociating themselves from Trump. Trump was then supposed to cower in fear and shame, drop to his knees begging for forgiveness, make a large contribution to Telemundo, throw in a check for Al Sharpton for good measure and shut up. But, the Left got Trumped.

Trump firmly stood by his comments because they are true. How long will the American people be bullied into silence, in essence, allowing the Left to repeal their first amendment right of free speech?

Leftist operative CNN's Don Lemon could hardly believe his ears. Stunned, Lemon said Trump actually, “doubled down” on his comments. The Left rarely encounters such non-metro-sexual insolence.

Here's another example of the Left's tactic of changing the subject and taking things to the extreme. The Left changed the subject from a wacko white guy murdering blacks in a church to banning the Confederate flag. The Left has decreed that anyone who does not rip down the historic Confederate flag obviously hates black Americans. As always, the Left's “take the argument to the extreme” tactic worked. Quaking in their boots, business executives are frantically ordering the immediate removal of Confederate flags – hoping their compliance beats the Left targeting them.

NASCAR asked fans to cease displaying Confederate flags at races.  I'm a black guy who would love to see a sea of Confederate flags at the next NASCAR race. I have no feelings about the Confederate flag other than I would relish our country giving the Left's tyrannical political correctness the metaphoric finger. In other words, “Trump it”.

Apparently, voters are finding it refreshing to have a Trump card in the game, smacking down political correctness. Quinnipiac has Donald Trump a strong second among GOP presidential contenders in Iowa.

“The Donald” is showing Americans how to response to the Left's bullying tactic; Trumping political correctness.

Political correctness has decreed that reading bedtime stories to your kids is racist, citing having a loving family an “unfair advantage”.  Trump it. Read more stories to your kids. Double down and thoroughly P-O the Left by including reading the Rush Revere Children's books to your kids.

Political correctness has decreed that peanut butter and jelly is racist. Why? Wait for it... “it leads to cultural sensitivity.”  These people on the Left are nuts. I say, Trump it folks. Let's start National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day. Just kidding, but you get my point.

Awhile ago, I excitedly fired off a column for publication, praising a presidential contender who boldly stated a politically incorrect truth. I raved about the candidate's courage and backbone, standing up to the Left. The editor wrote back informing me that my guy caved and apologized. Oh...okay – never-mind. We scratched the column.

I don't expect that to happen with “The Donald.” I pray that other GOP candidates will take a cue from “The Donald” and learn how to play the Trump card.
