In the Spirit of Intertwining Messages Among the Adam Smith Crowd....We are many!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
This young man stuck it in their pipes and lit them up.  El Gringo Viejo urges a Secondary Diploma at the end of the 10th grade, the return of the office of :"teacher" to the ranks of "calling" and that the notion that teaching is a profession to be abolished.   No feeding of children in school.  No bus transportation to the schools.  If football, basketball, and baseball are necessary, the various baseball programs have demonstrated that sports and band. including ensembles, can be developed more than adequately in the community.
 
Furthermore, people who feel like they can teach should be allowed to do so without the need of having an "education" degree.  The tiers of administrative levels bespeak of a force designed to impose political correctness, and to teach to the test ad infinitum until the horizon arrives to our front porch.  We send our children to school to learn that Washington owned slaves and that Earth is going to explode in a flame of CO2 fuelled horror while also being barraged by asteroids larger than the moon.  And that it is all the fault of white males, especially George Bush.  It's just not worth the taxes we pay to have a place where insolent snots can shout profanity and perform degrading and disgusting acts and gestures without the fear of any discipline, and where the main activity, besides sexual innuendo, is eating....free breakfast, free lunch, free afternoon snack, free summer lunch program.
 
     "Mommy, Mommy, I went to Mary's house after school, and her mother was walking around in something called a kitchen....boiling stuff and putting things in a really hot box with a glass door.  I bumped into it while I was texting and almost burned myself.    There was a man who came home, but he wasn't stoned or drunk like the boys you bring home....Mary called him 'daddy'....what is  'daddy'?   Can we have a daddy?   He's taking Mary and her brother to Port Isabel to fish for flounder.   Mommy, what is fishing?   What is flounder?  Mommy, where is Port Isabel?"
 
     McAllen football team in 1953 went all the way to Port Neches.  Two coaches, one volunteer doctor and a Latin fellow who said grace over the equipment.   McAllen's populace leased a special 14 car train, plus a diner and a club car.   Twenty-four hours up and twenty four hours back.   The entire budget for the athletic department, including golf and tennis was less than 100,000 USD, including salaries.  That would be right at 1,000,000 USD now.
That 1,000,000 USD presently does not even touch the beginning of paying the salaries of the 12 coaches that the football team has now....and almost  every male coach is pregnant, and wearing spray on outfits that make them look like some kind of pregnant clown doll.   And back in 1953 the stands were full of townspeople and students....now, if it's a good night, maybe the stands are 1/3 filled.   The opposition side is almost entirely empty.   Sometimes there are more players ....considering the band and the athletes...than there are spectators.
 
 
Oh, well.  Such is life.

What Means the "Upton Bill"??


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


What Means the "Upton Bill"??
      At 1:36 PM ET November 14, 2013 the United States House of Representatives passed a bill (H.R. 3350: "Keep Your Health Plan Act of 2013") that would require insurance companies to reinstate individual insurance policies lost due to Obamacare and also allow policies to be issued to new customers.  The Senate is not in session today so it is uncertain what that body will do when the “Upton” bill comes across to it.  If it is remotely possible this thing becomes a part of the law, “If you like your insurance, you can keep it”.
 
     Not having more information we can only guess of the content or consequences but theoretically this could be good or bad depending how it plays out.
 
     Such a change to the law, if constitutional, will not only reinstate the 5,000 plus policies lost and will likely add thousands or millions of new customers who fear the alternative ACA/Obamacare (and affectionately called the OSMI, Obama Socialized Medical Initiative).  One stipulation that could alter that scenario is the expiration date of December 31, 2014.  The insurance industry would most likely not, under real law, have to provide new policies nor would it even if they could.  Potential new customers would also be deterred knowing that on expiration, they might again be subjected to the same potential loss of private coverage in 2015 and so forced into Obamacare.
 
     The positive news is that such a change would exempt so many people from Obamacare it would be weak of starvation by expiration of this change in the law.  At the end of 2014, before the elections, there will not be a taste for Obamacare by the majority of Americans.  It will be up to the conservatives in the Republican Party to continually remind the populace of the original supporters of Obamacare in order to keep a majority in the House of Representatives and secure a majority in the Senate.  There is now tremendous pressure on Democrats and RINOs to keep the private sector insurance industry alive simply to preserve their seats.  This is something of a double edge sword; however, if the conservatives in the Congress keep their eye on the ball we can unseat the progressives (in spite of their weak opposition to Obamacare too little too late).
 
      These are ramblings, which should be considered simply that, because we know that the left will not roll over.  We cannot underestimate the power and compulsiveness of the progressives.  We cannot expect the president to all of a sudden start observing the law. 
 
     It is probably not even possible that the insurance companies can or will reinstate the expired policies or issue new ones.  They have prepared for years and adjusted business models and financing to accommodate Obamacare.  Obama knows that the industry cannot turn on a dime (to coin a phrase) and has vowed a veto of this bill. 
 
   This is a last ditch effort by desperate politicians (a few well intentioned representatives not withstanding) to save their political careers.  It could work.  It could provide relief for those who have lost their policies.  It could persuade millions to obtain private insurance including those not previously insured to circumvent Obamacare.  Ultimately, if this bill passes we will have some time in which to move the public against the ACA and those who supported it.  In any event, this is a stick in the spokes of Obamacare if it is made a part of the law.

Urgent Warning for Texans and other civilised folk

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
     The Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM) has issued an urgent warning pertaining to the infestation of cockroaches known as "navigators" in the lexicon of the Obama Socialised Medicine Initiative (OSMI).  We have followed this terrible plague.....worse than the locusts announced by Moses....as the availability of the "free medical'' services infrastructure began to be established.  The TNM is concerned almost exclusively with matters that affect Texas.
 
     It was known that the old ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) was being integrated into the front lines of in-take clerks for the OSMI clients and gimmeslugs.  This is a really neat deal because it combines the triple moral corruption of setting up a free government service, with money taken forcibly from the productive, to be administered by people with a proven criminal and nefarious background of voter fraud, extortion, and inappropriate administration of public funds.   ACORN was so embroiled in so many criminal activities that it was finally forced to disband, and the two brothers....both communist organisers with close ties to Obama, Jerrod, and the Annenberg Foundation (Bill Ayers, anyone?).   The old "community organising" group was gradually re-established under other names in various places, essentially playing The Phoenix while the American people underwent the standard fortnight of lobotomy.

To wit:

Obamacare Brings Organized Crime To Texas
The Truth about Navigators 400 pixelsThe Democrat Party and the Obama Administration have brought 'Texas sized' fraud and organized crime to Texas in an unprecedented way as was reported today in the National Review article online: The Truth About Navigators, by John Fund - http://www.nationalreview.com/article/363699/truth-about-navigators-john-fund
The under-cover video is incontrovertible evidence that the 'Navigators' are operating in Texas as a criminal enterprise and are apparently using fraud and deceit to encourage Texans to defraud the federal government and become criminal accomplices as a result of the explicit instructions of these people operating under the auspices of the federal government and the Democrat Party.

We already knew that several branches of Planned Parenthood have received hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to serve as Obamacare “navigators,” defined as “an in-person resource for Americans who want additional assistance in shopping for and enrolling” in Obamacare insurance plans. National Review reports that another such navigator is a group started by ACORN founder Wade Rathke.
 
wade rathke
 
 
Federal funding of ACORN-related groups was banned in 2009 after the organization was caught on video by James O’Keefe coaching people in illegal activities. Fox News reports:
The government has given out $67 million in Navigator grants to help with the controversial rollout of ObamaCare. It was not clear if Local 100 got a grant of its own, but it has set up a help center with Southern United Neighborhoods, a charity founded in March 2010 with many former ACORN members, to enroll people in ObamaCare. Southern United Neighborhoods received a Navigator grant of $486,123.
That $486,123 was for the Louisiana branch of Southern United Neighborhoods, which also won grant money for its branches in Arkansas ($270,193) and Texas ($600,678).
Rathke hasn’t tweeted much about Obamacare aside from links to his blog, where we learned Oct. 1 that “once you answer the first simple questions and enter your information, you will get a real-time, meaning virtually immediate, response if you are enrolling on-line.” Sounds great!
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     We have a soft spot in our gall bladders for ACORN, remembering their effective voter registration procedures. designed to clog up registrars' offices with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck applications, along with thousands upon thousands of real, unqualified, multiple-registered individuals.   There is literally no way for normal people to calculate how many ACORN Zombie voters there were / are who have voted multiple times in how many elections.   It is not in doubt however that ACORN involved people have been found in possession of scores of actual active and valid voters' registrations.   We mean, like one person in possession of 10 or 15 valid registrations.  If an organisation can pull off three or four hundred individuals being so equipped, then it becomes a very valuable tool such as in the case of the Al Franken Minnesota Senatorial debacle of the election in 2008.

For instance:

FoxNews.com)
        
     Senator Al Franken likely owes his Senate victory to felons. With a razor thin victory over Senator Norm Coleman in 2008 of just 312 votes, felons convicted of crimes such as murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assaults may have given Democrats the filibuster proof sixtieth vote that allowed Obamacare to be passed.  Americans have good reason to ask how this could happen.
      Consider this:  A conservative watchdog group Minnesota Majority has gone through voting records reportedly finding that at least 341 convicted felons voted illegally in just two of Minnesota's 87 counties during the 2008 general election.  Undoubtedly other felons voted illegally in other counties. After culling through 500 initial allegations of felons illegally voting, the Ramsey County Attorney's Office told The Minneapolis Star Tribune Monday that they are seriously investigating about 180 cases.  Another 28 felons have already been charged. Hennepin county, which includes Minneapolis, winnowed 451 initial cases down to 216 that they are still looking at.  Some other felons have already been charged.  Both the Ramsey and Hennepin county attorneys are Democrats.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
     El Gringo Viejo has to confess that his grandmother, great-grandfather, and great-great grandfather are all buried in the Lakewood Cemetery, Minneapolis, Minnesota in various of several large family lots in the centre of said cemetery.  And, yes, my Grandmother, whom I never knew, was a suffragette and a WCTU (gasp).  She was a liberal Republican of the Ripon and La Follett order.  There, it's been said.  But she was a nice girl and very intelligent, in spite of all that.
 
     This employment of old ACORN operatives as integral intake personnel for the OSMI portends nothing but ill for the Republic of Texas.  The same awaits our brethren in the American Union.
 
Thank each of your for your kind attention and investment of time and patience on this day.

Potpourri of Important Stuff.....A note from El Zorro and a Haunting Glance to Chill Your Bones

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
     The other day, tired from the drive, and after working pretty much for three weeks on stuff that involved quite a bit of heavy lifting....and (ugh) spending money, El Gringo Viejo was shot (exhausted).  For thirty-six hours he moped about, feeling sorry for himself and trying to "get straight".  But then he read the planning notes from about three weeks earlier that El Zorro had sent...just some nebulous thoughts, but experienced notions about how to attack this issue festering in Washington, D.C.   Before the next six hours was up, El Gringo Viejo had hopped to and was making submissions, contacting this and that party and generally making a pest of himself.   It went to the idea that El Zorro had about insertion where and when possible...at every opportunity....without being forbearing.   But it was necessary to back up our team.   Neither of us is a Tea Party member per se, but intellectually, we cannot believe that any victory is worth winning if it is not grounded in principle...and the willingness to implement said principle while in governance.   Our principles are grounded in a view of the future without debts for our progeny...our nation.   Your humble servant is convinced at this point that the re-establishment of The Republic of Texas must occur and that it will occur.   But I genuinely do not wish ill for the American Union. My grandchildren come from a line that has 400 to 450 years on the North American Continent depending upon which line they follow back to Boston Harbour or Vera Cruz.  El Zorro is in the same situation in many ways.   We know that burdensome debt is a greater slayer of nations and the will of the populace of those nations than even War.
     Welfare dependency, crony capitalism, overly entitled labour unions, a fractious citizenry arrayed group against group for economic and/or cultural reasons....all represents internal rot of the soul of the nation.   We are forming a wave to re-instate equality before the law and sociological union of the populace and freedom from central government largess and bondage.  In short, we are going to re-establish Americanism.   Texianism we have already, just about as close as it can be.  We'll work on that some more as well.

      "DC, I am in!
     The current major issue is the audacious deceit perpetrated by Obama regarding the OSMI (Obama Socialized Medical Initiative). The projected number of Americans being ejected from their formerly private sector medical insurance is 93 million. That is something under one-third of the population. These people had insurance that would qualify as an exemption from Obamacare but because of Obamacare they have lost the exemption and are forced into it.
 
     This is such a blatent fraud by the president it should qualify him for impeachment, indictment, and felony conviction. He has knowingly and intentionally misled everybody. That by itself, not including all the above, is worthy of removing this man from the presidency. Where are the representatives that could have stopped this before it has become all but impossible to stop? Are there any among them to stand with Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and a hand full of others to call for impeachment?
 
     Folks, this is serious. It is not just a handful of trouble makers who know what needs to be done. It is the entire conservative culture, most of the independents, and a growing number of democrats who are awake: however, the lead has to come from incumbents to make real change back to the Constitution. If the incumbents now cannot handle the job we need new incumbents. That is what we can do now. In the longer term, we can strengthen the Constitution with the method prescribed in Article 5. That has to start now. We cannot wait. We should be very concerned that if this cannot be initiated peacefully now, other not-so-peaceful methods might be employed later to restore the letter and intent of our beloved Constitution. I and many others are with you."
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  
     Yes, it is very serious.  El Gringo Viejo has set forth a call to the Blogosphere of the Right, calling on all the serious minor league rightwing bloggers to begin the beat of the drum.   The organisation of the troops.  The preparation to make noise....noise that is wide and deep....that can be heard in Boise and Mobile, Reno to Lexington, Massachusetts and Virginia and Texas.   This is being done so that the "Quesos Grandes" will be able to quickly click on to any laptop or PC and see that several score thousand of bloggers who have friends and followers and readers numbering into the millions are logging onto sites with which they have substantial agreement.
     Compatible issues are, for instance, the melding of the Fifth Amendment Movement with the pressure to bring the "I' and "C" words to the fore.  Impeachment and Conviction must be held over the head of a man who would blame some poor dumbo Coptic Christian for inciting a "riot" so as to cover up his and his Secretary of State's own dereliction....criminal dereliction...resulting in the deaths of several Americans, including a full Ambassador...and several Libyan guards who were compromised and probably murdered for having held in with the Gringos.  Nothing important, save for those of us who believe in honour and the compliance of the American way, of protecting our own and being loyal to those foreigners who stand with us.
    Further dereliction comes in the form of the president's citing of the specific group "Seal Team 6" when speaking publicly as if he was somehow the strutting, ball-spiking general who braved the bullets on Normandy Beach and led the way to the killing Usama bin Laden in a far off land.
 
     Enough!   This show to-day, at the "press conference" and "statement" about a "fix" by a person who thinks he can write some laws and not enforce other.   By the Constitution he is wrong on both points.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
 
     And this is the person who pre-supposes that she will succeed the current poseur.
 

"I know I saw him.   I tell you, it was him.  He was sitting right back there!
Listen to me, dammit!  I know Vince Foster when I see him.!  I've been
seeing him more and more recently.   Him and that Ambassador. What
was his name?   Oh, what the Hell difference does it make."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is really, really strange how so many people wind up dead, once they
cross paths with this person.   Perhaps that is what comes as a by-product
of having done so much for women.....and children.....and minorities,
and everything.   Just think of all she has done for others.
Ah! Benghazi...if only she could have answered the
call at 03:0o....but it might have been Ron
Brown, calling from the "other side".
The eyes are the mirror of the

 there is a soul to

Honour, Class, and Duty

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
     Finally, we have arrived at a point where we can engage with our learned counsel and lifetime friend concerning this miserable situation in which we are enmeshed.  El Zorro and El Gringo Viejo have a tremendous amount of common traits....size, shapes, proclivities, talents, dispositions, ancestries, and the like are all right out of the Southern, White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant Wasp Manual.  Of course, we are both mestizo...each having Indian ancestry, although El Zorro's is a bit greater.   And, as Protestants, that is a wobbly post along the fence-line, because most of the old Episcopalians consider themselves to be Orthodox and not Protestant....and certainly members of the the congregation of Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Churches.   But then, El Zorro is also a philosophical Theist by inclination...a believer in The Cosmic Force....while El Gringo Viejo is a dull, unthinking Traditionalist...set his groove by a family whose surname actually is Christian.   Both of us were good, serious, acolytes although we were a bit mischievous when not actively serving.  And, El Zorro is a better warrior than El Gringo Viejo.
 
 
     We have come though life this far, however, only to debate and discuss things we could never have envisioned during the previous 60 or so years.  The nation....will it survive?   Is the control group so bent on maintaining control and placing puppets into the control points of the governance, that it will kill the thing they are attempting to control?  Is there anything so ridiculous, or so obvious and urgently necessary as the re-establishment of the Republic of Texas?
 
     And, so....here we are.   Sitting around with no particular power, but yet almost perfectly free from any shackles of any control group or any individual.   El Gringo Viejo would like to throw out first that it is long past time that Barack Hussein Obama should have resigned from office.  To-day's high-handed (and running late, as usual, as is the case with all terminally narcissistic empty chairs), is a case in point.   The President of the United States is stating that he is ordering a change to a law.   Such cannot be the case in a democratic republic.  If he intends to order and enforce that order to amend in any substantial way, that is prima facie usurpation.
     Further, when speaking to the Spanish-language television network "Univision" during the 2012 presidential campaign, Barack Hussein Obama declared that he knew nothing of the program Fast and Furious until he was informed about it a couple of months previous to his appearance on said programme.   He said it was a programme that was put in place by the Bush administration and he ordered it closed down.  The bald-faced lie was so blatant that the two interviewers could not really say much, because it put them in the position of having to call Barack Hussein Obama a bald-faced liar.   They had to protect their own stupid self-interests in trying to keep the president at least on superficially positive relations because he was also saying that he was still trying to push illegal alien amnesty through the (according to the press people present) resistant, racist, anti-Mexican, United States Congress.
 
     But, that one event should have opened up a challenge to the legitimacy of the Obama presidency.  It was a clear lie on several levels.   Not a different interpretation of the truth, but a clear lie.   It was a lie that contradicted the legitimate interests of persons and institutions both foreign and domestic.
     Likewise, the silly, arrogant, and dangerous treatment of the Benghazi situation....before, during, and after the incident....definitively require the drawing of Articles of Impeachment and the subsequent Conviction of Barack Hussein Obama, as well as the indictment, conviction, and incarceration of the then Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton, for criminal dereliction..
     His incessant use of executive edict also calls into question his willingness to respect the division of powers.   His amending established law by the granting of waivers to certain interests, especially those private and public interests to whom he is beholden for political and financial support is a primordial transgression against the compact between governor and governed in a democratic republic.    The head of government must include and defer to processes based  upon the rules of Common Law and a Constitution that provides definite procedures and roles for each of the three Divisions of the central government.
     One danger Barack Hussein Obama fails to consider in granting these administrative gifts such as waivers and loans and government grants is that he almost certainly is violating the concept of equal protection before the law.  Further, he is doing it for the purpose of personal and political advantage.
 
 
     El Gringo Viejo is teetering and tottering between various inclinations and desperate responses to all of this.  It is almost certain that to-day, when the muumuu clad blobs come home from having their nails done, and the bankers come back from counting the money that has been deposited from the negotiation of food stamps at the various grocery stores and other outlets that participate in the national socialist "safety net"....they will be cheered up,   Why?  Because Obama has stated that he will allow the insurance companies to extend their old policies for another year", thereby demonstrating that he is decisive, and that he will protect the little people against the Republican Wehrmacht.    The terminology even boils El Gringo Viejo's blood...."Obama will allow".
     King Huabungo deigns....and he waves the scepter made from the femur of a defeated warrior from some  insignificant tribe from over there somewhere....and thereby causes Law to happen.  Too many Tarzan movies, too much dope smoked and cocaine snorted.  Too many people telling someone who is so obviously a puppet that he is great and grand and that his raiment is the finest.    Oh! What fun it is to be, An Hugo Chavez for a while.   T0-day the medical sector, to-morrow I think I'll just order a complete shutdown of the coal industry.  Then, maybe I'll nationalise the loan industry for advanced education.
 
     This screed is and is not suited for a treatise.  You have things to do, as do I.  To list the several hundred egregious transgressions against the sensibilities of the Constitution and the truly established law of the land would take several hundred, if not thousands, of pages of enumeration and explanations.  But I truly believe that if Obama had the remotest notion of the concept of Duty, and/or if he had one drop of blood with any Class at all, or if he had the soul of a person who valued his personal Honour.....he would be gone from the office by this point.    Furthermore, he would be gone by his own hand....returning to his native Hawai'i or perhaps Kenya or Chicago, or someplace such as Jamaica.
     Perhaps he and Michelle and the girls and Michelle's mother, and Reggie Love could all move in and room-up with Uncle Omar Obama Onyango at that nice little house in the Boston suburbs for a while.
 
     The final and real question is, should all the minor-league bloggers begin to beat the drum for removal from office, or should we just sweat out the next three years and hope that we aren't sent to Fort Leavenworth for "de-briefing"?
