How can I beat this prediction?

This is a time when many make predictions for the coming year.  But a prediction I made last year was so good, there is no way I can top it.  So I simply say . . . I told you so . . . back in January 2016:

Can it be any clearer that a lot of people out there are angry at being unrepresented by the establishments of both parties?

So I’ve got a 2016 prediction you can add to the zillions you’ve heard already ‘cept mine is better.  2016 will be the Revenge of the Unrepresented.   One result will be the nomination of Donald Trump this summer or the defeat of Hillary Clinton this November. 

And do not be too shocked if it will be both.

Dang, I’m good sometimes!

I hope all my good readers have a Happy New Year.

To prepare for the onslaught of lies against Jeff Sessions…

. . . I have come across no better prep for the DemocRAT lies sure to be told against Jeff Sessions next month than this long and thorough debunking - Dissecting Slander: The Untold Story of Jeff Sessions’ 1986 ‘Borking’.

I could and may say more, but if you care at all about who is Attorney General – and you should – read it.

Obama Imports More Terrorists

Obama seems determined to endanger us as much as possible before January 20^th.

In the first 84 days of the 2017 fiscal year (October 1, 2016 - December 23, 2016), the Obama administration has accepted 25,584 refugees into the United States, according to data provided by the State Department.  Per Breitbart, compared to the same period in FY2016, that represents an 86% increase year-over-year.

And, yes…

…per data from the U.S. State Department, the overwhelming majority of refugees admitted into the U.S. over the past couple of months are coming from Syria, Iraq and Somalia...

Whom we know are all such lovely people.

At best, this is inexcusable recklessness that endangers American lives and will tax communities that much more with dangerous invaders.   Yes, that is what too many of them are.

But then the safety and freedom of American citizens has always been rather low on Obama’s list of priorities.

Christmas Has Begun.

In the Chapel of Kings,

a lone boy has sung.

The glorious feast of Christmas . . .

has begun.

Poor St. Thomas

Today is St. Thomas’ Day.  If you forgot that, it’s okay.  I suspect most years I forget also.  Thomas is surely used to the indignity by now anyway.

And placing his day right before Christmas is an invitation to forgetfulness.  What’s worse is the Book of Common Prayer collect.

ALMIGHTY and everliving God, who for the

more confirmation of the faith didst suffer

thy holy Apostle Thomas to be doubtful in thy

Son’s resurrection: Grant us so perfectly, and

without all doubt, to believe in thy Son Jesus

Christ, that our faith in thy sight may never be

reproved. Hear us, 0 Lord, through the same

Jesus Christ, to whom, with thee and the Holy

Spirit, be all honour and glory, now and for

evermore. Amen.

Nothing about his martyrdom or steadfastness or any “good example” of his.  Just “help us not to be a doubter like ‘thy holy Apostle Thomas’ there . . . the doubter. We really don’t want to embarrass ourselves right in front of thee like he did.”

It’s interesting that Cranmer completely rewrote the collect for the Feast of St. Thomas.  The previous Sarum collect did not mention his doubt at all and even holds forth his faith as an example to follow.  It seems Cranmer had it in for him or was in a mood when he got to that part of the BCP.

Well, by now Thomas is probably a good sport about it all – and that is surely a good example to follow.

Have a good St. Thomas’ Day.

Electoral College Thoughts

Well, yesterday Trump won, again, in the Electoral College.  I rather enjoy having a President-Elect who beats Democrats, is good at it, and enjoys it.  What a novelty!

Now whining whiners . . .

. . . whine about Hillary winning the popular vote.  But that only confirms the Founders’ wisdom in how we elect Presidents.  I, for one, do not want to be ruled by bigoted narrow cities and regions who either pad their DemocRAT vote totals with felons, illegals, and the departed, have profoundly un-American values, want to tell the rest of the nation how to run their lives, or all of the above.

And those regions are indeed narrow.  Here’s a good map to give an idea of that. 

Someone who wants to be President of the United States needs to demonstrate to the electorate that they will indeed be President of the United States, not just of California (which alone provided Hillary her popular vote margin) and New York City and a few other Leftist hell holes.  We don’t need a POTUS who sees the rest of us as “deplorables.”  The Electoral College yesterday protected us from just that.

One last thought – I want those who threatened the lives of Electoral College Electors in prison.  I mean it.

Washington Post’s Dionne Pushes Coup

No, I am not going to link to the contemptible Washington Post or to its even more contemptible old DemocRAT hack E. J. Dionne.  But if you can stomach reading the column in question over at RealClear Politics, have at it.

It suffices to say Dionne is among the DemocRATS advocating a coup against Trump and the November election in the Electoral College.

Whenever Democrats ask for our votes in the future, remember Democrats have worked again and again to nullify our votes in the past . . . and now.
