Making my bags as I prepare another trip. Will be off the grid or only briefly on it for the next several days. Wife and I are sneaking off to get away. Hope she likes her birthday present which will be waiting for her in the garage when we get back.
Anyhow, I saw that finally some politicians are coming out and calling foul on the Obama misadministration and its reprehensible media allies in the ongoing criminal alien invasion. I note that these politicians seem concentrated in Texas, holder of one of the last pools of sanity left in the Western world. Senator Cruz has been onto the scam from the start; Gov. Perry seems willing to use his executive powers to send the Texas National Guard to the Mexico border; and Lt. Gov. Dewhurst, in an interview, has noted what this blog also noted before that the VAST majority of those coming across the border in the great Summer surge are NOT unaccompanied children. They are adults, many of them with criminal records.
I will comment further as I get the chance.

ReplyDeleteYes. As a Texas Official explains;
"We should reconsider having law enforcement in charge of departments like Motor Vehicles but we are the idiots who allow the IRS to be in of control our healthcare."

Government, especially when left to "it's own devices" --- see several of Diplomad's entries concerning The Militarization Of Police --- it becomes clearer:
"Dedicated databases" are the first to get hit ... generally speaking. And combined with genuine criminals in the very same database well,
Stuff generally happens ...

As an old consular officer, I wrote my senators and congressman (deep indigo, alas) about immigration reform. I asked for a provision to equip every Conoff and every immigration inspector at every port of entry with a rubber stamp to print "sucker" on the forehead of every poor zhlub who immigrates legally.
ReplyDeleteBon Voyage and Happy Birthday to Mrs. Diplomad!
ReplyDeleteIf I were traveling this month, I'd be sure Tel Aviv was on the itinerary, Although, my wife might prefer to stay away untll the Obama regime is neutered! "Let's Roll"
I take it that Misses Amselem does not read your blog.
ReplyDeleteHave wonderful trip. Curious to see what surprise you have for the bride. I look at your page every day, enjoy your writings immensely. Thank you for the taking the time to educate me, and thank you for your service to this Great nation.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this. I have been looking for details.
ReplyDeleteFor a guy who won't lift a finger in defense of the US or its allies, this Bozo and his backers have managed a pretty big offensive against the United States.

Dip, I'm sure she will LOVE that DeWalt power tool gift set. Good choice! ;)
ReplyDeleteEvery good woman deserves a new vacuum cleaner at times!
ReplyDeleteI never bought my wife a vacuum cleaner, principally because she would be unlikely to know how to use one, but I also declined to buy my daughter-in-law a vacuum cleaner, in spite of her hints for one, because it just does not do, to give women cleaning tools. I don't like the implication. Transportation, OTOH, now there's a gift that keeps on giving.
DeleteThe BSU did buy me an industrial sized dust mop one Christmas, but I had asked for that, and I got other gifts in addition.

Twas a bit of sarcasm, Michael Adams. Over the years I've given my wife several nice knives.
DeleteThat shows how much I respect and trust her!
I even gave mine a .357 magnum.But I was safe: No vacuum cleaner.

And now the Brits and USA have been chased out of Libya.........what a disgrace.
ReplyDeleteThe halfrican princess takes it up the ass again.
Worst job in the world right now -being a US marine........they have my sincere sympathy. Protecting a president unworthy of their service.
Well you sure picked a good time to go dark!

This is what a case of the DTs must be like? Pretty soon, many of us may need professional guidance.
Deletewith the wait unexpectedly long I've had to commit to a rather time consuming project of my own:
