This is one of those days when I don’t have anything to write about. So, I’ll resort to beginning with words that might not make sense at the start but may mean something by the time I finish. When I experienced my greatest readership a few years ago, I was writing opinion pieces about Obama. At the time, I thought he was a born-in-Africa communist dressed in Brooks Brothers suits and pretending to love this country. Today, I am quite certain that he is a communist born in Kenya. He was hell bent on implementing his communist father’s proposal to redistribute the wealth of America, and dividing the country into hate groups. The President of Kenya hired him, and promptly fired him when Daddy Obama began to propose his plan to take from the rich to feed the poor.
The hate groups BO tickled into functioning were not just black vs white, they were Muslims against Christians, queers against straight, Europe against Russia, the world against China, etc. the list is endless. There is more division in America today than there has ever been among peoples of the world since the beginning of time. He couldn’t accomplish the deed while in office illegally, so helped steal the last election from Trump, his greatest enemy, for a candidate that he himself believes to be a dimwit. He knew he could control the dimwit from within the depths of the Deep State bureaucracy.


During his presidency, Obama was afraid he might be exposed as a charlatan if he pushed the radical left too hard to bankrupt America. In walks the dimwit, who immediately erased every positive move Trump made while in office, he ignored all existing laws, and proceeded to open the border to allow millions of unvetted immigrants to cross. The dimwit then bussed, flew, and transported them to unidentified cities across the country and assured them that America would care for them with free stuff. At the same time, dimwit began a deep-state war against Trump to ensure that his innovative ideas to save the country will never happen. In effect, Obama granted himself a third term as president.
We all know that Obama was elected under the guise of affirmative action. We needed a black president to cool the 20 percent of the population that feels they need a savior to lead them to the promised land. The promised land where they can live happily ever after, stealing people’s stuff and shooting each other at will. I feel sorry for the blacks who live righteous lives, and I despise the blacks who are spoiling life for their brothers and sisters. Obama and dimwit will label me a racist for saying that.
We are a nation with our heads in the sand regarding placing blame where it belongs. The powers that be ignore that the lousy education system is the result of teacher unions that are more interested in making a fortune for doing nothing than in taking responsibility for poor educational outcomes. The Congress is responsible for drafting and passing stupid laws creating a culture of black families without fathers. Congress is responsible for never repealing stupid laws only making them more stupid by amending them with more complicated twists, turns, and loop holes. Congress is also responsible for abdicating to the lobby industry all responsibility to write laws. Congress, then fills the lobby written laws with pages full of porky earmarks that help them get re-elected. When will the common man be allowed to lobby a congressman to write laws that make sense and might even work? The DOJ must be renamed to the Department of Injustice for dividing law against order.
Our government does not work the way the Founding Fathers envisioned it. For one thing, I’m positive that George Washington and his cabinet did not envision the mess we have brought upon ourselves. The first immigration law was passed in 1892 and has been enhanced, improved, and complicated at least ten more times since its inception. The number of people working for all the immigration services has changed from 180 in 1891 to about 320,000 in 2024. Politicians love to blame every problem at the border on our “broken” immigration system. The problem as I see it is that they have so much help and so many conflicting policies that they are tripping over themselves trying to get the job done.
My personal experience with immigration came when I offered to help an immigrant who has lived in America for over twenty years but is not considered ‘legal’. I couldn’t live with that, so I made it my responsibility to get the immigrant processed as quickly as possible. To date, it has cost nearly ten thousand dollars, and it has been three years in the making, but still no Green Card. There is no estimate for how long the process will take. Most of the cost is for processing fees. The excuse I get is that the Law makes the immigrant responsible for the cost of his becoming ‘legal’. I see a future in this racket for immigration attorneys who specialize in understanding the laws and its loopholes. And there are loopholes a many. In trying to understand how complicated the system is I have visited the USCIS website many times and have learned that there are over 500 different forms that pertain to the laws with provisions for loop holes in each. Depending on an immigrant’s specific situation decides which form is used to use. After examining several of them I learned that the government is paranoid about anyone telling a lie on a form. Each form has a half page codicil of fine print explaining the penalty for lying on an application. Most penalties are jail, deportation, and/or fines.
My question is this: how many years will it take to:
1.) Find ten million people who have entered the country in the past three years without the necessary paperwork?
2.) How long will it be before these people achieve legal status?
While we await the answer to those questions Congress, no doubt, will spend its time drafting new revisions and laws to make the processing more complicated. They will then spend endless hours on TV news programs explaining how these new laws make us more secure than the previous law did.
Hopefully, I fulfilled my promise at the beginning by delivering final words that make sense.

Today, I took a fifty-mile round trip drive to learn that my Primary Care Physician, whom I have been going to for forty years, is off sick. I should have called first, but I thought he would have someone covering for him. No such luck. His cover is off on vacation. So, I decided to turn the lemon into lemonade by listening to Dan Bongino while driving.

When I arrived home I began researching Doctors. I found one in Mokena, the town bordering Frankfort and about 4 miles away. The appointment is one week out, but I’ll tough out the shoulder pain until then. I’ve had this mysterious ache for eight weeks now, and I think I can live with it for another week before I get it checked out. In the meantime, I’ll have to send my ailing doctor a thank you note to tell him how grateful I am to have had him take care of me over all of the years.
Meanwhile, As I listened to Bongino he verified my theory that Obama is running the country. Biden is too stupid to have all these left wing policies on his own, So the BIG O has been feeding them into his former operatives who now call Biden boss. In other words Obama who was never born in the USA, and not entitled to be president is now running behind the scenes in a third term. Bongino commented that Obama was politically smarter than Biden and was afraid to push radical left ideas too far under his presidency, but under Biden he can blame it all on Biden and Trump and succeed in demolishing our Republic.

One problem with writing a post everyday is finding themes. In that regard I admire Daniel Greenfield who writes for his blog called Sultan of Knish. He posts several times a week and each time it is an academic essay on some aspect of politics or world affairs. His posts are between 1200 and 3200 words each time. On the other hand, when I am in good form I will post about three times a week and average about 600 words. Lately, my posts are about four times a month, and I am having difficulty thinking of stuff to write about.
I wouldn’t be surprised if someone labels me racist again, because when Obama was president he did so many things I disagreed with that I couldn’t stop writing negatively about him. When Trump was president, I didn’t want to fan the fires of those who were against him because the press didn’t need any help from me. Biden on the other hand hasn’t done anything I like, and I believe he is destroying the country. Biden is making Obama look like an amateur when it comes to stupid policies and stupid governance. I don’t want to waste my time repeating what the daily news is already doing. Besides sleepy Joe is an old timer like me, and I won’t pick on someone who can’t help himself because his brain has stopped functioning. There is nothing sadder in life than watching a person who was a fireball while younger, and who has lost it to Alzheimer’s. I saw what happened with my wife, and it is truly saddening that so many people end their time on earth by slowly losing their memory to the point where they forget how to breath.

One memory invoked by Sleepy Joe is the era of Jimmy Carter when inflation kept rising and the Federal Reserve couldn’t do anything but raise interest rates to 16%. It was a great time for people with cash who could buy Certificates of Deposit earning a 16% return for a five year period. They advanced the size of their savings dramatically. The high interest rate eventually worked, and the economy adjusted so the rates began to drop, and about the time the 16% CD’s matured the rates were back to a paltry 3%. So for anyone looking at how long this pain will last history says it will be at least five years after the current rates rise to 16%.

For the past twelve years we have enjoyed an economy that was operating on free money. Loans were down to the low 3.0% range and that allowed many people to buy the house of their dreams. Those who had cash in the bank were sadly only making 0.1 % on their savings. Most people invested in stocks to make decent money. My retirement has been happy because of the earnings I have received, but I’m not so sure I will be happy moving forward as the economy begins to falter. My advisor continues to admonish me to look at the long run, and not the short term. Excuse me, but just how much longer do I have? Ten minutes, ten days, ten months, ten years? I worry that my paltry portfolio will not be strong enough to keep me going for the duration.
Last week I went into a McAllister’s deli for a sandwich($20 for a cup of soup and a six inch sandwich), and I swear the lady who took my order was older than me. I had a vision of me behind the counter making sandwiches, and that is not appealing. I’d rather spend my time standing in the middle of busy intersection dodging traffic with a bucket in my shaky hand collecting money for my Lions club.
In the good old days everyone was a farmer who worked until he died. It was only after the industrial revolution, and the Great Depression that people began looking at work as a forty-five year duration. Pensions, vacation, and medical insurance all became perks for workers. These benefits were being offered by companies desperate for help. With Trump’s economy we saw a huge shortage of help, but I didn’t see anyone offering huge new benefits to lure workers to their factories. About the most extreme benefit I saw was the work from home model which came because of Covid. Let’s hope things get better sooner than later.
