Here you go.

——-please explain to me why you have a problem with OUR president? Because he has misspoken a few times? Tell me when you find a perfect person, please….I’ll wait!

I’ll tell you why because the media has skewed him in such a negative light and unfairly report his accomplishments to undermined those achievements!

Why? Because the media is complicit in every single thing this man is trying to undo! Start thinking for yourself!

Below is what happened the last time we stood by and did nothing

The big difference is this time it is our country putting up with the Antifa brown shirt ilk.

“…as attorney general of California, she criminalized truancy — making it a crime for kids to be late for school and dragging into the criminal justice system even more disproportionately low-income, predominantly black and Latino families. She’s overlooked the misconduct of her prosecutors and fought to uphold their wrongfully secured convictions. She defended California’s choice to deny gender reassignment surgery to a transgender inmate, and in 2014, she appealed a federal judge’s holding that the death penalty was unconstitutional”

Shouldn’t Antifa or BLM remove Mrs Harris…aren’t they pissed about slave owners from days gone by…….can you say hypocrites, I knew that you could….
““My roots go back, within my lifetime, to my paternal grandmother Miss Chrishy (née Christiana Brown, descendant of Hamilton Brown who is on record as plantation and slave owner and founder of Brown’s Town) and to my maternal grandmother Miss Iris (née Iris Finegan, farmer and educator, from Aenon Town and Inverness, ancestry unknown to me). The Harris name comes from my paternal grandfather Joseph Alexander Harris, land-owner and agricultural ‘produce’ exporter,””

It is going to be a fun election period….Come back often to stay up on what is happening….

And when you say HYPOCRITE….I assume you meant that in plural form

HYPOCRITES !!!

Well one thing liberal political hacks need to remember we threw off tyranny before …. we can do it again!

https://www.facebook.com/davebrayusa/videos/200374907964401/?v=200374907964401

So, my lady friend is having a dilemma……

She works for a convention site, and because idiot liberal Fauci got us to shut down for 2 weeks which never ended…her industry is locked out of service, no conventions, no visitors, No shows, no…you get the idea…

At first, although too much for some, unemployment of $2,400.00 bucks was at least paying some bills and didn’t hurt as much.

Still unlike most liberals she enjoys her work and her customers and her bosses. So it was sad to watch her look for news daily…
anything positive,
anything to look forward to
anything to reflect on and feel good about while not working.

Now the state and Gov Edwards won’t let her industry open up and instead the state and Edwards are in a pissing contest with Trump….

Job search, before, was not meant to be filled out and now even though they no longer offer the big paycheck and while still being shut down and barred from working as they shut down the whole hotel and convention industry, She now has to fill out a job search…..
Hello she has a job and wants to do it.

Other places that are just as non essential..
say tire shops can be open…
Sorry, I just don’t see that any more important than her getting to work in her industry where she built a name, product she is proud of.

Since the state is still stopping her from working why should she have to go look for a job in a different field or fill in job search…

SHE HAS A FUCKIN JOB THE STATE JUST WON’T LET IT OPERATE…

Thank you big brother for being political instead of taking care of your citizens ….

Liberals, take sucking as humans, to a whole different level !!!

Well here i go again….Facebook jail….I was called every name in the book and if you know me I gave as good as I got except the pansy ass Liberal reports me and …the rest is history.

Of course they Jailed my ass and not the guy who started the threats and name calling….

I was going ot list a group of companies and individuals that donate and support what I perceive to be a racist and violent organization of Black Lives Matter…

This is not as easily done as said…if a company gives to say…the NAACP…but says they support BLM they truly aren’t funding the terrorist arm of the liberal progressives which uses both Antifa and BLM to push an anarchist agenda….

SO the post of companies will need to be researched and verified…but trust me that and the list that donates to Bail money for looters and violent offenders is coming…

It is time people stood up to these trouble makers and quit waiting for the other guy to do something about it….I for one am not standing for this type of mayhem silently…

Not having ever served in the military as I didn’t enlist when Vietnam was going on and later in life, I was too busy enjoying the freedoms or messing up the life afforded me to enlist as a volunteer.

But as a member of a family that came here as immigrants, Legal Immigrants I might add, we were always supportive of the military.  I would buy drinks for soldiers as I traveled in alter years to race sailboats when I saw them at the airports, or dinners for those that happened ot be in the same eatery I was in.  I did this maybe to ease my conscious and/or to show gratitude to be living in a country that affords me the right to type this and express my feelings.

Be it guilt or gratitude on days like today I think it behooves us to reflect on these warriors of and for our freedom.   I came up as a young man with stories of oppression in a communist country, and yet Yougoslavia, although communist was not a satellite of the then USSR.  As Tito was good at playing Russia against the USA to keep some autonomy.

I think this is why I have a passion or obsession for politics.  Knowing what the alternative might be… and seems we are willingly allowing this country to march down that road… A road that never ends in a happy or good place.  As is evident in the USSR, China, Venezuela, Cuba, and any number of other socialist/communist countries.

All that separates us from those types of regimes is our constitution and the Men and Women of our military that don’t just put their life on the line but so many have given their lives for our liberties and freedoms…

Unlike the Politicians of today, many of which, seem to want to subjugate us and take our freedoms. These modern-day warriors stand between us and whatever perceived enemy is wanting to take our liberty and our lives. All they ask is for a clear mission and the tools to carry it off.  Even if lacking the tools and seldom is their own safety a factor.  They still put themselves between the enemy and We The People.

Today is a day when we should honor those that have fallen. 1 out of 365 days is not so much to ask and reflect on not just their valor …but their families.

If you can watch the video below and your heart doesn’t swell with pride for the people willing to protect you and me.  If your eyes don’t swell with tears for not just those that have fallen, but for their loved ones.  This includes their family …. their friends …. all who were lucky enough to Know and Miss such Fallen Heros.  I have to correct that last line.

All who were lucky enough to Know and Miss such Heros.  As fallen denotes not succeeding or in some way failing. How can that be when…..

“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends”

I hope you have a heart and shed a few tears, as did I, for the Heroes and their Famly…..

Those that know me, know I am not shy, I used to be, no honestly…mainly cause I was in awe of Life…I consider myself, like everyone else, DIFFERENT.  I also considered myself to be lucky.

So it is a bit weird for me to say I have not had an experience like “The Best Time Of My Life” That would be a moment as the saying goes that “Takes Your Breath Away” that supersedes all other experiences and I have never had that One idyllic moment.

I mean I have loved, I have stared in wonder, and amazement, I even think I have hated and cursed my life and others…..

Don’t frown or feel bad for me, many have gone through life with less then an idyllic moment, hell some don’t make it to LIFE.  Some never out of childhood and even then, the best moment…can it be experienced if you have nothing to gauge it by?

We can assume then that at least in my case it is moving on from child, lets say less than 12 or 13. and young adulthood..the brooding years I mean who can enjoy life when you are flushed with hormones and you want so much that you can’t have and truly too stupid to enjoy what you can.  As the saying goes ..”youth is wasted on the young” So how can one have it then…The Best Time Of My Life. I mean really all that lust and no one to share it with.

Hell I have been a rich young man and soon after that a homeless drug addict in the french quarter. I have battled demons and even felt (in the latter years of my life) soared with angels.

I have done wrongs no one else but I and if there is a God, just the two of us know about, and I have done what I perceive to be wonders for others.  But to say ..The best time of my life…???

Maybe you are nodding now saying, yep you are right or you may be of the mind the first time you held a puppy, a kitten, a baby,  your lover.  When you and you alone were the caretakers of a life…

But as we grow I think we find those best times aren’t always the way you felt and cared for the defenseless, or even things that like you, and glome on to you, as you are their caretaker and provider. …win, lose or draw, victorious or in defeat you may feel that was the best time of your life…How would you know ….

Again without reference and life experience without knowing what is next, how can you label this as the best time of your life and again what if one of those was, how sad if those young adult times, say the first time you and another shared an intimate sexual time that one of those stands as your “BEST”!

So many spans in a life….the interactions you have changed you, the perspective differs but I think most if not all think of our 20’s with the independence and the foraging through life to find your own way.   How will you make it through, surely one of those has to be the best time of your life?

I could go on extolling the virtues of each age and make a pitch for when you got that promotion no one thought you would or better yet everyone knew you were gonna get and told you so. your achievements in work as an employee or an employer or how you bet on the right stock or if only this company instead of that would have crowned your savvy market play, but at least you were in the right segment, or so you say …. Or as you age you think back to holding a son or daughter or even better still a grandchild…heaven forbid live long enough for a grandchild or great-grandchild.

Maybe The Best time of your life is doing the thing you enjoy most, or your favorite food or cooking it for others, and seeing the wonder of flavors as they explode in each mouthful.  The praise of a good job or as in my sailing to know you are part of a team or to be the one and only that saved the race or the day.  surely this is the Best you can be and enjoy.

The sorrow of losing a lover. I know what you are thinking, how can that be the best time of your life?  and any that have felt that loss knows with that sorrow comes a slide show of all the happy moments. The times you looked into your lovers eyes and saw affection, love adoration… Or your parent’s eyes and saw pride in you.  even when looking into the eyes of a competitor and saw defeat. when you won or their pride in having beat you because you gave it your all and what they achieved was not easy and they could take pride in it.  That surely must be The best time of your life, Respect from an enemy a competitor…???

I can ramble on and now my years grow shorter even as my days grow longer (how the hell can that be?)  I can blab on about sharing what you learned and trying to help other not make the same mistakes you made…but what if that would be their best time fo their life and you stole that from them.

So after several wines, several weeks of thinking and editing, slowly thinking through this, let me bring it to a close this Friday morning, with what I have come up with as the best time of my life and let me impose myself on everyone and claim what should be the best time fo their lives….

LIFE………… LIVING IT………….!
Trust me every waking moment, every breath you draw every action, be it good or bad, be it kind or evil, be it hating or loving.

Trust me my friend life itself in all its joy and pain, boredom or excitement, each moment.

Living for me, and I hope for you, will turn out to be …..

The Best Time Of Our Lives !!!

DON’T WASTE A SINGLE SECOND OF IT!
