Most enlightening post Ted. Liberals /Socialists just really have a hard time with the whole freedom issue, and that is why Socialism often leads to Fascism.

Yes, they can all be patriots. First, they must act like patriots. Everyone is not a patriot, and the real patriots know who the patriots are. But, Liberals can be patriots, as long as they put their nation, their communities first above party. Most elected Republicans do that; that is why they are so hard to control.

Now, here is the big exception. If one has served in the military in a war/ combat zone, they can hate America, and short of any act of real discernible, destructive treason, they will always be a patriot, at least to me.

Those that have served in war/ combat zone situations and love America; they are what I would term the super patriot. I pray that they will be among our future leaders; fine examples of such are General John Kelly and General Jim Mattis.

I guess there is some allegorical value to allocating money duties to dishonest men, but for the life of me, I can't fathom it. It probably is just the way it has always been.

Always follow the money with politicians. A minimum of 60% of all politicians /bureaucrats can always be tempted if the money is right, and they believe they can get away with it.

The core Democrats believed that L. Hillary would be elected, and she is known to be corrupt enough to easily allow the Obama corruption to continue.

Alex, and that is why they instituted the Electoral College: Because they questioned the intelligence of the uneducated, and now is no different.

The Electoral College will always be with us, and when it is not, I predict that we lose this Republic.

Peter Schweizer has done some fine work.

That is a cool collection.

You know what would make a really cool series of posts: The 40 ball caps /hats of Bobby Tony, but with Bobby Tony underneath each hat revealing its true theme.

Hey Bobby Tony. The newest server that BCN sits on has 6 terabytes of storage, and is very fast at processing data.

Beautiful analogy about the essence of control; who controls what. For Trump it is about branding as well, hence the Fake News. Man, did that ever stick.

If I could put on my U.S. Constitution hat, the best way to explain the election of president is that the states have the responsibility to elect the president. If a state wished to go rogue, and not respect the wishes of the citizens in their state, and then pick someone else, they can; however, that state has to deal with a bunch of pissed off citizens going forward.

The DOJ only cares if the election process to select the electors was fairly carried out.

Recently on that other posting board, these comments of mine were met with the faux argument that deriding the "Free Press" is destructive to the 1st Amendment, to which I countered these comments:

1) No, it has been moving toward Fake News for decades. It just came full circle when Trump was elected; he just successfully branded them.

2) It is overwhelming how bad they are. I am shocked when they report anything that is news worthy.

Their infatuation with taking down this President is so manic, it reminds me just how diligently they covered for Hussein: Solyndra, Benghazi Cover-up, Uranium One, IRS political Targeting Scandal, ObamaCare, FISA Abuse for Political Targeting ... we could go on and on.

The AR-15 is not for hunting. No one owns an AR-15 to hunt. These firearms are owned for protection and defense.

Ranting further: 3) I do not own an AR-15, but, I aim to. As long as America's enemies own AR-15's or an equivalent, law abiding citizens will own them too. This is the intent of the 2nd Amendment.

Many liberals will offer, in retort, that they know those that they definitely do not want to have an AR-15, and there in lies the rub and becomes and there in lies the problem. One person, or a group of people subjectively determining another's 2nd Amendment rights.

Ranting further: 2) It is most probably impossible to run government like a business, but God bless this President for trying. Who knows, he blunder into success like he has so much so far.

Ranting further: 1) On those that name the USA a Democracy - We are either a Democratic Republic, a Representative Democracy, or just a Republic. Leaving words off the stress that we are a democracy just won't work as a descriptor.

I wear toboggans often. I use them to wear less clothes when outside, since they conserve more integral heat than any other article of clothing.

At some point, once I get the sales flowing as a one man marketing force, I will get some SNI ball caps. They well look great (trust me), and I will give you one.

Thanks B.T. I still had my heart set on the toboggan.

I love that image B.T. Great post; I need an Old Man toboggan.

Well presented Bobby Tony. Posturing, which could become very real, is the first tact toward negotiating effectively.

Simply, the U.S. Constitution. By these population standards, the representative from Wyoming is the highest ranking legislator.

Actually, North Carolina is over 10 million people right now as per 2107 estimates.

I love your metaphors, and I'll love all your stories that you choose to publish in BCN. They are truly a benefit to the preservation of much, especially that of a rich history of one man's piece of the world.

"Founding Nonspecific Gender": Really Bobby Tony; you don't give reactionary political expression its due with your unveiled sarcasm.

Actually, I was trying my poor hand sarcasm just now.

Great post by the way. I definitely get this one. You combined humor with real information that serves as a historical perspective, while revealing to all a nice chunk of what constructed Bobby Tony. Thanks for sharing.

You guys are too damn funny, both of you. These were two fine laughs because both are so true.

You and your emojis. They speak volumes, but this is a time for Kidwell to properly respond not me; but I did, didn't I?

Dondi, send me your image.

This Broward County Sheriff shamelessly operates on a plane of hypocrisy that is grand in scale.

There was once a long standing tradition: Cowards were lined up and shot in disgrace.

The practice began to stop in World War II. In my recollection, there were no executions for cowardice in the Korean War, but in the Vietnam War, officers were occasionally fragged for a myriad of supposed violations.

The American Armed forces today are an extremely brave bunch, very well trained. Training may be the key.

I will bet real money that not one of the Broward Cowards were former U.S. military.

Regarding B.T.'s meme, and TMc's cowardice claim, this video may exemplify both form America's current top intellectual wienie:

Am I coining this one ? It just hit me this morning regarding the cowering Broward County deputies.

It simply is just too easy: The Broward Cowards.

That is the true justification of a Christian: To know your human limitations and strive to be closer to the Lord. We are all sinners, and we all must come to Him in our own way, and His own way. It is a personal thing.

I really have to work at it. I want to do what is right, and I want to be a good citizen of His world.

I can well understand your reluctance B.T. to hold an M16.

My father never wanted to ever touch a M1 Garande ever again, and never talked about his days in WW II until he got into his 7th decade.

My supposition about you and my father is that you and he were raised as good Christian boys to become good Christian Men. Raining death upon other humans, many no more evil or good than yourselves, is a terrible duty.

That is why I revere patriots like you and Robert Earle Deatherage with such great conviction.

The Trumpster "Tweaks"; excellent evaluation.

I'm kind of the same way. Even though I know I am right to the core, I often just want to piss some people off, while inflaming the passions of those that will try to make a difference.

I would do this if I did not believe that I was right. The President believes he is right, and ... he most often is; especially when he accuse the Obama administration of "wiretapping Trump Towers", which truly pissed off the Fake News to no end.

The "Basics" that you speak of is at the core of being an American, and many Americans will never fully what those basics are. That is how you lose a republic.

Yeah, I dig the bug. It reminds me of much.

I need all the help I can get on the guitar. One day we should start a band.

I just checked out the chords to "Hey Jude"; great chords that I play often - all of them. If I get some time, I will get that song down. I'll use your diagram to remember the words.
