Immigration

8/26/2020

As you well know, some Democrats (and some Republicans), care absolutely nothing about the truth when it negatively impacts their narrative. Democrats and the mainstream media often attack our country on immigration yet:

1) We take in four times the number of immigrants than Germany which is in second place and five times as much as Britain. We are the most generous country when it comes to allowing people from other countries in.

2) The U.S. is more multi-cultural than any country in the world.

3) The U.S. ranks extremely low when it comes to U.S. citizens seeking citizenship in other countries. Meaning people don't want to leave.

4) If we weren't a great country, then why do so many people want to live here?

It just blows my mind why so many citizens are angry with our country especially young people who are ignorant to our country's history. Just how bad is it to grow up in the U.S. compared to others? These young people aren't oppressed, they are privileged to be born here which is what we hear from pretty much all the immigrants seeking citizenship.

I want representatives who believe we are a great nation and "why," we are great, so we don't lose the foundation that has successfully sustained us all these years.

Morton Salt

8/21/2020

One of my company’s clients was Morton Salt based out of Chicago; an awesome city except for winters plus you want to stay out of South Chicago due to the violence. I admit that I was focused on their salt when we first began talking about partnering up. I was surprised to learn that their company did a lot more so I thought I would provide a little insight on their company so you can be surprised too.

The company launched in 1848 and was named after the owners’ family name of Morton. It was Joy Morton and her son Sterling, who started the company. Isn’t it amazing that a woman that far back had her own company? Because of their distribution network, Morton is still the leading brand of salt. They created the Morton Salt Girl in 1914 with a famous ad slogan of: “When it rains it pours,” which is still in the Top 10 of all-time advertising slogans.

Morton has/had several operating divisions including aerospace (rocket propulsion). They have a large chemical research division as well. Speaking of aerospace, Morton was part of the investigation into what happened in the Challenger explosion. The Challenger was doomed by a failed rubber seal, called an O-Ring on the booster. They hadn’t anticipated the temperature variance (colder than planned), that day and one of the seals didn’t flex into position which left a gap for the fuel to get through. One of Morton’s employees tried with all his might to get them to scrap the launch because he was afraid of what would happen with their boosters in cold weather, but he didn’t receive support – how tragic!

The family was pretty much out of the operation when a Germany company purchased Morton for $1.7 billion dollars in 2009. Not bad for a company that started with around $10,000 ($300,000 in today’s dollars).

Bye Bye George

8/13/2020

Michael Knowles is a conservative author and blogger. At the end of last year, he spoke at George Washington University and one of the issues he discussed was the desire of some students to remove their "Colonial," mascot because they said it was racist. The students, without any actual knowledge of the mascot, are basically removing George Washington who the mascot represents. I don't need to go into how important Washington was but what really gets me is that it's George Washington University. Let that sink in. There's no doubt they'll go after renaming the school. It's sickening. The tuition there is around $68K a year. I don't think their parents are getting what they paid for.

There's no doubt in my mind that many of the college students don't have a clue what their mascot represents all they see is some old, white guy, and write him off as racist. Again and and again they jump at every issue without doing due diligence so they don't make fools of themselves. This is what they're doing all around the country as they take down statue after statue of people who helped fight slavery.

One last thing that I found interesting regarding his presentation is that around eight hecklers were screaming at him and flipping him off. He asked them to tell him what he said that wasn't factual and/or was there anything he said that upset them . He pleaded with them to debate and instead, after all the screaming and yelling, they left without engaging him. They had an awesome opportunity to prove their points but they ran. This is a great example of how these young people work. It's just about the protests and riots as it gives them a feeling of power. They hear there's going to be one and they head to where they are told.

The scary thing is that it's difficult to teach common sense, logic, and wisdom. There's something is in the water because these traits are seriously lacking these days.

Kamala "Mad Dog," Harris

8/12/2020

I get so angry at what the media does for the Democratic Party. It's like we're living in a 3rd world country where the media uses political propaganda to push candidates forward.

First of all, The New York Times had an article where they stated Harris was pragmatic and more moderate. Let me ask you, what of that is true? Nothing. How do we know it's a lie? Because Kamala has told us what she believes and isn't pragmatic and certainly not moderate as she has far-left ideology and is on record of sharing this ideology. So think about it, a newspaper compliments Harris; that isn't journalism.

This makes me even madder. You've probably seen the massive amount of coverage by the mainstream media that we have a historic moment by having our first African American female VP candidate. The problem? AN ABSOLUTE LIE! When she received a seat in the Senate, Democrats and the mainstream media didn't say she was African American, they said she was our first Indian (India) Senator. So is she Indian or African American? Well, since her parents come from India and Jamaica, how in the world can people get away with saying she's African American? I hope this a question that Pence ask her about. By the way, Pence is very presidential. When he debates Harris, he'll by far have the likability factor over her.

If I want to say that I'm in a particular minority group, then that's fine now. Liberals have been pushing to no longer teach actual science that states there are only boys and girls (XX and XY chromosomes), because they don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable. Think about it, no scientists unless he or she is a nutcase, would ever question the science of biology regarding gender. Picking a gender and ethic background someone might want, sometimes for financial gain (i.e. minority loans, scholarships, etc. ), can't be questioned at this point. As a matter of fact, if you're looking to get a loan throw out that you identify as female and/or African American to get better terms. Truth no longer matters, just be who you want to be.

Out of Control

8/11/2020

After the 7 to 1 vote by their city council in favor of removing 100 officers from the Seattle police force and taking three million out of their budget, their African American police chief (Carmen Best), immediately put in for retirement.

Do they not care about the personal lives of these officers? They have children and spouses to help take care of yet these Democrats have absolutely no compassion when it comes to law enforcement.

Well all I can say is good luck because the protection the city of Seattle was offering is crashing down. Less foot patrols. Less car patrols. Here's a little something to think about, a lack of effective policing not only endangers the citizens, it also negatively impacts the economy. People don't want to move to a place where they don't feel safe. Companies don't like to risk their businesses and their employees. Let me remind you that the vote was 7 to 1. That city is in huge trouble. Actually, the data shows if you move to a city which has a strong and controlling presence by Democrats, you will find your new city to be in debt and run horrifically.

General Napoleon

8/9/2020

General Napoleon married a woman he was deeply in love with (Josephine), but when she couldn't bare children (she was their first Empress), he had to find another woman to give him a son. Josephine understood her role and that she couldn't do what needed to be done. Of course back then it was always the women's fault when she couldn't have a baby.

Josephine was obsessed with perfume and was generally bathed with it every day. Around 200 years later, the smell of perfume can still be faintly smelled in what is now a French museum. The castle/chateau near Paris, long inhabited by Josephine, still exudes the strong odor of musk with which the empress used to douse her daily. Let's face it, the smells during this period, including humans, weren't pleasant but rich people could separate themselves from it by using perfume. She also had a passion for gardening. She ended up with one of the most beautiful gardens in the country. Even though they were divorced, Napoleon would bring her unique flowers from the trips he went on overseas. What's kind of funny is that for a man so tough in his persona, he laid it all on the line when it came to Josephine.

The castle, now a museum, changed hands many times after Napoleon’s ex-wife died in it in 1814. But no effort of the subsequent owners has ever succeeded in eradicating the strong and penetrating scent which clings to the walls, imprinting the empress’s personality on her residence forever. The gentleman in charge of the museum said they're going to quit trying to get rid of the smell because it's more of a novelty at this point and people want to smell the perfumes Josephine wore.

Napoleon was so enamored by the sweet smell of perfumes that Josephine shared with him. that he kept around 54 bottles of cologne with him at all times. When soldiers began going through Napoleon's stuff after they surrendered, they were shocked to find the perfume in his locker. Quite frankly, a big chunk of the country knew little about perfume back then. Not that it hadn't been around (like in the days of Cleopatra), but due to the high cost of the product, a lot of people couldn't afford it. It was a luxury during a time when "Needs," by far out trumped "Wants."

A guess what it all boils down to is that being a warrior and a lover, aren't mutually exclusive.
