I Love Canada

Some say a picture is worth a thousand words.

If that’s so then this is my favorite of all, and it pretty much sums up what a peaceful protest looks like.

I wish my Canadian sweetheart was alive today. He would probably be right there protesting with the truckers, writing stories about them, and sharing photos. God love him.

I Just Want To Scream

Each time I see or read the news about senseless murders at the hands of criminals let out on no bail or low bail … all in liberal run cities, I might add … I am reminded of what happened to me over 50 years ago, and I want to scream. It never goes away. The fear. The trauma. The memory of what it felt like to have a gun at my head.

The three men who kidnapped me at gunpoint didn’t shoot me, but I didn’t know they wouldn’t kill me when they got out of their car, held their guns to my head, and said they would kill me if I didn’t do as I was told.

I didn’t know they wouldn’t come to my home, as they threatened to do, and they wouldn’t burn down the house, as they threatened to do if I called the police.

I didn’t know they wouldn’t hurt my family, as they threatened to do, if I called the police.

My only choice was to do as they said as they drove away with me in the backseat of their car while a gun was pressed against my head and the other two men were waving around their guns threatening to kill me.

Did I call the police? HELL YES.

They were eventually caught and sent to prison. You would think that would be the end of my story. It’s not.

I have lived in fear for my entire life because of those three men.  I pray all the time that they are dead. I have no idea what happened to them after they were sent away, and I’ve never tried to find out.

Maybe they really are dead. I hope so. They deserve nothing less for taking away my life.

Supreme Court Liar

I’m at a loss for words over Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s statements about COVID, Omicron, vaccines, and children. The woman lied.

“We have over 100,000 children, which we’ve never had before, in serious condition, many on ventilators, from coronavirus,” said Sotomayor.

Wrong! There are 4,000 children in hospitals, which is 4,000 too many.

“Fox News reported that most of the cases involving children who have been hospitalized are “incidental.” The CDC reports that mechanically-assisted ventilation is generally required in fewer than 20% of cases among patients admitted to hospital.”  (Breitbart)

Sad to say but I’m losing faith in the Supreme Court. ~CE

AOC

There are a few members of Congress who make me want to beat my head against the wall each time they open their mouths. Well, maybe most of the Democrats, but none more so than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, bartender turned representative in Congress.

Why? So many reasons; so little time.

Clearly, the woman is unhinged.

If the good people of New York are really smart (and I’m beginning to have my doubts), they will kick her to the curb in November and elect a REAL representative to Congress.

AOC just isn’t up for the job. But, then again, that’s to be expected from a communist.

I’m done … ~CE

"Gov. Ron DeSantis responded to critics Monday who accused him of being absent when, in reality, he was attending his wife’s cancer treatments during the holiday break."

Let’s Go Brandon!

Most people know by now that “Let’s Go Brandon!” really means “Fuck Joe Biden!”

Personally, I love the way the chant has taken off all across America, especially at football games. There is something heartwarming about citizens exercising their right to free speech.

While Joe Biden hides at his beachfront home, takes a stroll with Jill and the new dog, and wears his mask, I’m reminded of this:

"There is no federal solution. This gets solved at the state level." 
                  ~Joe Biden, December 27,2021

We have an idiot living in the White House. He might be sick, and if that’s the case, then his family is enabling him and that boils down to Elder Abuse.

If he’s not sick then he’s just plain stupid.

Joe Biden is not a friend to Florida. He clearly hates Governor Ron DeSantis simply because (1) Governor DeSantis is far more intelligent than Joe Biden, and (2) Governor DeSantis is fighting for Florida and her rights.

Let’s Go Brandon!

Which brings me to 2022 and the year I like to call our last chance to save America from the socialists and Democrats in Congress who want to destroy America. If we don’t take care of business – which includes kicking RINO’s to the curb – then we are going to be screwed forever.

Let’s Go Conservatives and Save America!

Happy New Year and I truly hope 2022 is a much better year for all.

Make Someone Happy

Our NFL Team

Let me preface this post by saying that I’m just a cranky old lady who has opinions, and who isn’t afraid to express them.

This brings me to football.

A few years ago, our local NFL team went to London and while there, in the stadium full of thousands of fans and on TV, our team took a knee during our ‘National Anthem’ but they stood up for ‘God Save the Queen.’

I was furious. I called the local team’s office to express my feelings. I called the mayor’s office to really express my feelings. Then, I stopped watching NFL football until this year.

Why this year? Our new quarterback is someone I really admire. We need him to help our failing team. He’s fresh out of college so this is his first year with the team. He was the NFL’s number one draft pick.

We also got a new head coach. I like him, as well. He’s new to the NFL after winning three college national championships.

Well, to put it mildly, our team still sucks. They have won just two games this year. Why?

If you ask some of the pampered players, it’s the fault of the new head coach.

No! It’s not!

It’s the fault of the players – the same players who just had to put their social justice mottoes on the back of their helmets. I hate this. It looks stupid.

The players are being paid to play the game. Some look like they actually care about the game, while others look like a bunch of reindeer prancing around on the field.

Hand to God, I could do a better job. OK. Maybe not, but …

Now, there are rumors that leaks are coming from inside the organization – that players or maybe coaches are leaking sensitive information. The new head coach has stated that anyone leaking information will be fired.

Something else comes to mind. Sabotage but maybe I won’t go there right now.

My advice to some players: You are being paid to play football. If you can’t do your one job then quit. Stop whining all the time. It makes you look weak.

Also, I’m starting to question if part of the problem lies with the owner rather than the head coach. We’ve had a few head coaches, and the revolving door is making the team look really stupid. It’s making the city look even more stupid.

Then again, what do I know. I’m just a cranky old lady with opinions.
