Little humor before the Quad option expiration on Friday..........

Isn't it time to get these interest rates back in to the normal range of 12%-15% and get these tariffs firmly in place and get this economy going again?

In case you were in a CNN trance..............

During Tuesday's 'impeachment' hearing, Corey Lewandowski beat Congressional Democrats like a red-headed stepchild - starting with his opening statement:

"Sadly, the country spent over three years and 40 million taxpayer dollars on these investigations," said Lewandowski. "It is now clear the investigation was populated by many Trump haters who had their own agenda — to try and take down a duly elected president of the United States," Lewandowski said in his opening statement - later adding "We, as a Nation, would be better served if elected officials like you concentrated your efforts to combat the true crises facing our country, as opposed to going down rabbit holes like this hearing."

"As for actual 'collusion,' or 'conspiracy,' there was none. What there has been, however, is harassment of the president from the day he won the election." 

"Corey Lewandowski was very precise," Rep. Matt Gaetz, a member of the House panel, told Fox News' Sean Hannity. "And House Democrats looked like a dog that had chased a car and then caught it and then did not know what to do about it."

A Man named Harold, and a President named Barack.

This pretty much summarizes how Obama/Biden and most liberals view the US  military.

Harold was a bright child.  He grew up in America.  He went to school and had a bright future ahead of him.  Harold was full of life but was cut short in a violent moment.  While few people had ever heard of Harold before his death, many did afterward  And in death, something very shocking happened.  What was so shocking, especially when it is compared to the death of someone else recently in the news?

 Harold was Harold Greene, Major General, United States Army.  On Aug. 5, 2014, Major General Greene was killed by a Taliban terrorist. He was returned to America with full military honors.

 It has been a tradition that the president attends the funeral of general and flag officers killed in the line of duty. Richard Nixon attended the funeral of a major general killed in Vietnam and George W. Bush attended the funeral of Lieutenant General Timothy Maude, who was killed in the 9/11 attacks.

 While Major General Greene was buried, Barack Obama was golfing.  The vice president wasn't there either.  Neither was the secretary of defense.  Flags were not even lowered half-mast.

 Four days after Harold Greene gave his life for America, Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson, Missouri. Brown was at best a young thug.  In the minutes before his death, he committed a robbery at a local convenience store. 

According to other reports, Brown struck Officer Darren Wilson and shattered his orbital bone.  Obama sent a three-person delegation to Brown's funeral!

 Neither Obama nor Biden would attend the funeral of the highest ranking military officer killed in the line of duty since 9/11, yet he sent a delegation to the funeral of a thug.

When Margaret Thatcher, one of America's staunchest allies and Ronald Reagan's partner in bringing down Soviet communism, died, Obama sent only a small low-level delegation to her funeral.  The snub was not missed by the British.

When Chris Kyle, the most lethal American sniper in history was murdered, there was no expression of sympathy from the White House. But when Whitney Houston died from drug overdose, Obama/Biden administration ordered all flags be flown at half-mast.

 There was no White House delegation at the funeral of an American hero.  American heroes die and Obama goes to the golf course.  A thug dies and he gets a White House delegation.

 No wonder most "REAL" Americans hold Obama in such contempt, especially members of our Military.

  

And Biden is now expounding on how great the Obama/Biden administration was.

You know it's absolutely true

The older you get, the uglier you’re willing to go out in public.

When all is said and done and I go on ahead to the other side I hope that my friend Ed Bukoskey will be around for my family.

Thank you Ed and to your bride for all you do, have done and will do for the Parisian family at Ghost Ranch.

 

Thank You

Dear    ___________,

April 1, 1982.  I took the elevator up to the offices of Kidder, Peabody & Co., Inc. in the Security Pacific Bank building in downtown San Diego and started a career that has come to an end.  The Dow Jones Industrial Average opened that morning at 822.77.   The S & P 500 Index opened that morning at 111.96.

With my wife retiring after a 38-year career I have made the decision to stop managing outside money.  It was not an easy decision.  I have always enjoyed helping people.  Money was never my biggest motivator.  I always wanted to be there when needed, do my best, work hard, pay attention, work smart, be a great student, all the things I guess we all want to do at any job.   I have come to the conclusion that the only way to avoid stress at work is to not go to work.  Whether buying a ranch or traveling the world it has been always in the back of my mind; will I have the ability to respond to market turbulence for clients in case of a market melt-down? 

I have had a great run.  I am truly blessed and thankful.  Thankful that I was given the trust and responsibility to help people like you and thankful that I had the health to do the job.

Currently I have a half dozen clients in a fight with cancer.   It’s not easy and my number may be called any day.   God works in strange ways and it is not easy to understand.

My vision is clear.   I am thankful to have had so many rooting for me and inspiring me over the years.  Life is amazing.  I am healthy, and that is the largest component of my net worth. In looking back, I did it my way.  I worked hard and have no regrets.  I turn 66 this year.   It’s tougher to stay physically in good shape.   There are some things I want to do and my wife has lists that are getting longer.  I know you understand.

I look forward to talking with you soon.

With best wishes always,

Dean Thomas Parisian

Good Sunday Morning

-Bibles in school are not okay, but drag queen story time is cool. -Christianity is “anti-gay”, but Islam is a peaceful & loving religion. -Christians are radical, but letting kids be transgender is totally normal. I’m so sick of this backwards crap.

Donald J. Trump is President of the United States and saving America as an encore to his amazing life. Hillary Clinton is selling children's books because she spent all the uranium cash and she has no more favors to sell. God bless America.

“There was never a sign at all of any kind of child molestation. The Deon I knew at that time, he was stealing cars and stuff like that. He never, ever gave anyone an impression that he would touch any child. He was the perfect man,” Sophie's grandmother replied.

Chicago killings.............

My buddies, all gun owners, hunters and all-around great guys who believe in self-defense with a firearm often bring up the  statistics of those wounded versus those dead in the on going thuggery of third-world Chicago, Illinois.

So many wounded so few dead.

But why they ask.   And I tell them.

Spraying into crowds, running gunfights, poor practice habits, not enough range time, unfamiliarity with their weapon, shooting from a moving vehicle, poor light, firing when drug induced and on and on and on.  There is no end to the reasons why these thugs continue to miss and have such a poor ratio of shots fired per number of deaths.

The only winners in Chicago are the funeral parlors, ammo manufacturers, E. R. personnel, EMT folks, window manufacturers, physical therapists, big pharma,  medical crowd,  fire department personnel and on and on and on.

The drug and turf wars continue unabated.

Day after day, year after year.

Imagine if it were caucasians killing one another.
