Friends, tonight President Trump gave the longest State of the Union address in history, and, I must say, I was amused! He touted his administration's accomplishments, of which there are many, and challenged the Democrats, in a highly memorable fashion, to admit that the "first duty" of the U.S. government is to "protect American citizens, not illegal aliens". They sat on their hands, needless to say. They did a lot of that tonight, and in fact dozens of them boycotted the speech altogether. No matter! A lot of independents and swing voters were watching, and they saw a man who is unapologetic, energetic, and downright exultant at the progress that he and America are making. Will it work in November? It may not, given that Trump's enemies in the media control the narrative most of the time, but tonight he was, well, vintage Trump, and he put some spring in the step of everyone who proudly supported him in the last election. Kudos, Mr. President, and I know I speak for many when I say: we're not tired of winning in the least! We'll take three more years of it, please, at a minimum!
Dr, Waddy from Jack: It went much as I thought it would.The Squad squacked and bleated in futile outrage. Ilham Omar was as visibly ungrateful as ever for the refuge our country gives her from her anarchic native land. Petulantly juvenile outbursts were heard regularly from the disaffected back benches. The discomfiture of so many Dems, reflected in their drawn visages contorted with barely controlled and regretfully contained emotional heartburn, was telling. Schumer displayed his customary sneer. Elizabeth Warren looked dazed, like a petulant child, no doubt from the unbearable discomfort of being bluntly corrected by one she so imperiously despises.
ReplyDeleteI did not stay for the end of the speech but had I been DJT, I would have concluded: "Now I face you squarely, you who did your best to ruin my life and who think only the worst of America and say to you: STOP generating, encouraging and enabling the raw hatred you reflexively direct at any who are 'insolent' enough to find fault with your views
Grow up, you profoundly undemocratic 'democrats', GROW UP!
The President was superb; he was frank, unapologetic and forward in confronting his vicious detractors and he skillfully maneuvered them into reactions highlighting their disgraceful , mindlessly reflexive and unrelenting antipathy to him , to all he is doing and to the America which backs him. How richly they deserved his heartfelt denunciation of their "touching"sympathy for violent criminals: "shame on you, SHAME"! I rejoice at his ringing reminder to them that they win elections by routinely cheating. Of course they do : "any means necessary" is their undeniable watchword and trumpets their Marxist subjugation, which they would gladly afford to us all.
His central theme of America's strength and well being flew directly in the face of his unprincipled MSM detractors. His honoring of two of the swiftly diminishing last rank of our WWII vets, from the incomparable Greatest Generation, was exceptionally moving as was his recognition of people terribly wronged by the preceding Administration's misgovernment .Charley Kirk's widow was a paragon of noble constancy in her graceful and courageous stand.
Huzzahs aplenty for our President for his stirring paeans to proven American verities in that memorable oration.
RAY TO DR. WADDY, JACK
ReplyDeleteThanks for your reviews and tributes to President Trump for his State of the Union address. I was down with a bad cold so did not watch, but my wife did, and I'm getting a good briefing from her, plus some Fox clips, and have not been into Bill O'Reilly yet.
President Trump has probably done more in one year than all other presidents before him in the last 30 years, including Bush, in my opinion. Lesser men would have quit. Needless to say, I sure hope this all works to our advantage come this November. Trying to maintain a positive attitude in that respect.
Thanks again to the both of you for your comments.
Dr. Waddy from Jack: An NBC (Negative Baloney Cabal)post today was bylined "Trump says Muslim legislators should be sent back where they came from" . Actually he was referring to two reputedly Muslim Congresswomen (out of the hundreds of millions of Muslims in the world)who directed juvenile expectoration at him from the back benches for much of his speech. This is probably the only country in the world which would tolerate this from high government officials who are adherents of a religion some (certainly not all) of which militates hatred for this democratic country.One of them was born in the U.S.: why would wishing that she be sent back to private life in the upcoming midterms be such a heinous offense? Of course it is an exceedingly tiresome tactic for the radicals to direct any political dialogue to the point where they can aim their conversation stoppers, their automatic , unappealable condemnations - the myriad "isms" they reserve to their exclusive use, at those who insolently doubt them.
ReplyDeleteThe article later quoted House MINORITY Leader Jeffries (who should be a major issue in the midterms; he could be placed two steps from the Presidency and that would put President Trump and Vice President Vance in greater physical danger than they face now). He condemned the President for an allegedly sweeping remark against the whole of a world religion and conveniently developed an extensive denunciation of the President's speech. Oh my!
FIRST AND FOREMOST: No far left /Dem anti American incipient totalitarian has ANY moral authority to publicly castigate our President so. Since his "presumptuous" entry into our nation's politics as the first businessman to have a real chance of being elected (Wendell Willkie, George Romney , Steve Forbes , that guy from Texas and that later woman executive: they all failed)(sorry for the senior moment- they happen); since then, the incomparably vicious "American " far left and its often good willed but misled cadre have directed to him an unrelenting campaign of unprincipled legal and personal assault obviously meant to destroy his political power but also to make him pay for his presumptousness by emotional devastation and ruin.
I rejoiced to see him directly, fearlessly , unapologetically and confidently confront the very vanguard of his disgraced "judgementalists", (to use a term they use at their ease).
He is in fine fettle, thank you ; he knows the incipiently totalitarian savages for what they are and he ain't skeered. He is the Nemesis they have been recklessly inviting on them selves since they decided to forcefully and dishonestly "fundamentally transform"our country into an unrecognizable husk, back in the tragically fantasy driven '60s.
Does the far left horde actually think they can so castigate our hombre President and not have him come back right into their very faces?!After all that, who stood proud at the Presidential podium last night?!
Dr. Waddy from Jack: The Dems appear to be grooming their savior , who combines Slick Willy's bait and switch dishonesty with Obama's unassailable political correctness and novelty. Gov. Spangenberger of subjugated Virginia who ran as a "moderate " (as far as that term can be misapplied to a Dem)and predictably upon inauguration reverted to reflexive far left form, is who I refer to. Governor Hirsute of CA, beware of her.
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: Oh yes, the promised " sea of white apparel" confronting our President looked ,rather, like an oil slick in a stagnant pond.
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack : Well!This very day Hillary Esq. deigned to grace her presumptuous erstwhile legislative underlings with solemn testimony under "oath" no less. She said she knew nothing about one Jeffrey Epstein's adventurous vocations and those paragons who patronized his hospitality . Oh my!
ReplyDeleteWell bless me for a fool but isn't she reputed the smartest person in the world? Wasn't she the best qualified Presidential candidate ever?I mean, that suggests one heck of a lot of "savvy" yes? Isn't it tragic that she was denied her ultimate due by an atavistic institution which had been clandestinely and patiently laying all unknown in wait just for her in our Constitution for 220 years?"
She is no wallflower so she must have "gotten around", both incidentally and purposely during her "husband's" political , ehh. festivities, even in the suffocating ambience of Tammy Wynetteland. Was she then shocked . . . "SHOCKED!" at the devastating public revelations of her caddish mate's sybaritic wanderings even in the very White House? And in this grotesque relationship, was she nonetheless utterly unknowing of Jeffrey Epstein , with whom her "mate" had a cordial friendship and mutual "interests ".
Though her "marriage" is a sad disgrace and a contemptuous affront to the institution, fully representative of many baby boomers' casual and summary cultural dismissal , she did recognize in her "spouse" much cynical political know how and of course used it to advance her lifelong goals of achieving the supreme power to work her vindictive hate for men against them.
And he was always blithe to advise his paramours "deenahh, bybee, deenahh" after his own customary rollicking carnival huckster manner. Somehow she caught on to that game even though she was the one being played for a fool.(Or was she?).
It is rank disingenuousness to express faith in the integrity of any oath sworn to by Slick Willy and his ultimately pathetic consort. Its all rock'n roll to them. She hitched her wagon to him in expectation that it would enable her rise to the power to command vindictive redress against all men. And that necessarily meant devotion to his cynically amoral political expeditiousness.
Her solemn word is bereft of any credit and her testimony is interesting only in that reaffirms our nation's great good fortune at her electoral denial and the consequent rise of a great President with views utterly repugnant to her.Oh well, Chardonnay has gotten some publicity out of her dolorous exile to oh so politically correct and virtue signaling Westchester County.
RAY TO JACK
DeleteDon't forget that the famous bank robber Willie Sutton was also known as "Slick Willie."
RAY TO JACK
ReplyDeleteWas it Blaise Pascal who said: "I would have written a shorter letter, but I did not have the time"?
Dr. Waddy from Jack: It appears that VP JD is off to a very promising start in his new portfolio of tasking heretofore "countenanced" corruption in the use of Federal funding for purposes not really intended.
ReplyDeleteDespite the appalling curses called down by obnoxiously impositioning national guest Ilhan Omar, for such law enforcement being motivated only by racial antipathy , VP Vance has already levelled sanctions , enforcing the rule of law rather than that of demagogues, against regrettably compromised Minnesota, which have motivated timorous offers of legislative redress from beleagured Gov. Walz. How ironic; he could himself have been VP and would no doubt have been eager to avail other then available remunerative opportunities and meanwhile have taken "point" for Kamala's certain dutiful onslaught on common sense.
Good going JD!
Dr. Waddy from Jack: Well, America is in for a truly bizarre experience today. An unfortunate official will be constrained to administer an oath as prerequisite to testimony (of a sort )from former President Clinton. Given his amply demonstrated cavalier and expeditious attitude toward truthful exposition, the oath can be expected to amount to a counterintuitive charade. For twenty somethings, here is a chance to witness a reprise of what America was subjected to by this exemplar of that faction of the boomers generation which casually and dismissively embraced comprehensive moral relativity - "whatevah!"
ReplyDeleteWe can anticipate hearing nostalgic reminders of such gems as : "Ah did not have sex with that woman" and " that depends on what the definition of "is" IS." It should be a sobering experience to remember that we twice elected a man who could hide behind a corkscrew, as his draft board learned to their disgust after he burned them (and all military vets ).
A Fox commentator said that Hillary, in her "testimony" yesterday, may have been "throwing him under the bus". Who could blame her after the appalling public humiliation he has dealt her in their "marriage"!A well respected legal expert said Clinton will undergo a very trying experience today. That sharply increases the chance of our being treated to some fascinating and prevaricating gems of deceit. As some of Epstein's victims may be effected by his probably disdainful pronunciamentos on the stand we may well see him deny them their legal rights as he did to another (s) before and for which he was deservedly impeached.
It will probably be an onerous experience to be on the panel questioning this "paragon" of justice.
Dr. Waddy from Jack: If Hillary is throwing her caddish husband to the wolves at least she is directing her apparent hate for men to an individual who deserves her antipathy.
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: Slick was true to form; he hasn't lost a step. He appears to think he can still put the big lie over! But this one , this one . . . !
ReplyDeleteHe maintains that he, the most personally and recklessly obscene man ever to disgrace our White House , despite his documented close and frequently enacted association with sybaritic perv Epstein, knew NUTHIN , during their mutual admiration duet's tenure, about those of Epstein's seemingly unlimited intensely criminal sexual " peccadillos "which our low life President cannot but have found most interesting and maybe , just maybe, engaging ehhh? He would have us believe that his proven debauched personality would never find in such a prolific pimp a kindred spirit; even now he presumes such sneering fantasy!
We have all encountered unapologetically dishonest people, ranging from people who have conned the worthy out of their savings, to slicko sales people, to cornpone carnival hucksters who prowl sweltering county fairs. Slick Willy falls into the latter category and he shares the same rollicking contempt for the "chumps" he manipulates as do all of his ilk. To him, the American public is an endless source of such gross entertainment , material gain and darkly sensual opportunity.
I was around many hundreds of con artists in my 20 years working in state prisons and believe me , he's just like them. I don't think he has any principles, aside from "getting high" by many means: adulation, applause, power, perks, conning, wealth and of course, unbridled amour. As long as he is getting his heart's desire(like access to nubile subordinates ) he will use any front to maintain his vital high. Upon taking office he proposed an enormous tax and spend increase (no doubt at the command of his grimly far leftist consort , who probably has always had all the "goods" on him and if she spilled them , would blow up his games). But then later when it became politically disadvantageous , he protested, "wha, ah've allus bin a small govmint man".
He has proved himself to be utterly amoral and untrustworthy and his 'testimony" today fully reaffirms his contempt for any who dare to interfere with his "player" pleasures. During his tawdry ordeal in 1998, he glared at us all, crooked his pedantic finger and after shamelessly denying his low life behavior , warned us that we had to let him get back to "running the country". Oh my, there was there a hint of threat in his glowering visage. I've seen criminals (like him)do that many times when they weren't getting their way with their "charms".
Dr. Waddy from Jack: Oh and then there is the matter of Epstein using his ability to provide unseemly delights to glean sensitive information from powerful notables for who knows what nefarious purposes.Former Prince Andrew appears already liable to defend himself against such charges. Well gee, a President knows some pretty secret secrets, yes, and well, pillow talk and hot tub "conversation " you know!
ReplyDeleteRay, you are so right: it's been a very eventful, consequential year, and there's a lot more scope for Trump to act... I mean, look at what's happening in Iran as we speak! What a difference a president makes, indeed.
ReplyDeleteJack, it occurs to me that it must have been jarring for lefties to see Trump sowing his oats as he did at the SOTU, since they've been told, over and over, that's he's senile and on the verge of death. If that's true, then they must have found a really first-rate body double to impersonate him, because the man who addressed Congress last Tuesday was a dynamo, if ever there was one!
Hmm. Could Spanberger be a threat to Newsom, Harris, and the other whales in the Democratic Party? Perhaps. She's a wily one. I wouldn't dismiss her lightly, if I was them, or if I was, say, Vance.
Jack, I'm all for a "War on Fraud", but it ought to target more than just immigrants, and more than just Democrats too. There's plenty of fraud to go around, I fear -- lots of it in the Pentagon.
Jack, you may be on to something there: proving the Clintons' knowledge of, or participation in, illegal sexual shenanigans would be very difficult, but proving that they shared secret information with their cronies might be another matter. If anyone at the DOJ wants to imprison a Clinton or two, I strongly advise them to look into this!
Dr. Waddy from Jack: After their having no doubt "encouraged" the incarceration of a former President it would be so ironic to see them being tailored for Federal blue prison togs (although certainly not in the same room!)
