Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For February 25, 2018 The Dems in California
at their annual convention failed to endorse geriatric Senator Diane Feinstein’s
bid for another term because she can’t hobble to the left of Kamals Harris fast
enough and instead voted in favor of progressive leftist State Senator Kevin de
Leon even though polls show Feinstein leading him by 29 percent; from McCabe’s
testimony last year that the FISA warrants would never have been sought without
the fallacious anti-Trump dossier the Schiff memo and new Blue allegations that
the dossier was a minor reason to obtain the warrants, the Blues are scrambling
to obfuscate the real threat to our democracy that the FBI and DOJ failed to
disclose the dossier was at best not authenticated or at worse false and in
either event it had been paid for by the DNC and HRC (still trying to find the transcript
but given Schiff’s past performance when it comes to a lack of credibility and
objectivity find it hard to believe anything that comes out of his mouth other
than cack); look for a recall against Sheriff Israel if he does not resign—how many
calls to the Cruz household had to occur before someone realized there was a
problem (we also should be looking at whether the anti-police rhetoric and
action by Blues is hindering the desire or ability of cops to put their lives
on the line http://alaskanpoet.blogspot.com/2018/02/pigs-in-blanket-fry-m-like-bacon-home.html;
while the Blues’ response to Parkland has been Pavlovian (more gun control) and
the Reds more common sense (better background checks, end burpstocks), a more
refreshing response has been that of a high school student entrepreneur Justin
Rivard who has invented a device JustinKase that when used makes it impossible
for a shooter to open a classroom door overcoming the weakness of merely
locking the door only to have it shot through; February 23 Ridley's Believe It
Or Not-This Day In History alerted the world that the day was Curling Is Cool
Day and a day later for the U.S. as predicted by an episode of The Simpsons in 2010 it was, as the U.S.
Mens Curling Team beat Sweden 10-7 to win the Gold Medal; in Chicago through
February 24, 2018 340 people have been shot of whom 66 have died and in
February through the same date 130 people have been shot of whom 30 have died
(do not be surprised if at the end of February Chicago is averaging two
Parklands per month in terms of number of dead and the left and Blue leaders
are silent while mostly minority shooters with handguns kill mostly minorities—a
true definition of racism).
As always,
I hope you enjoy today’s holidays and observances, a music link to Jennifer
Lopez feat. LL Cool J, factoids of interest for this day in history, the
fact that your cupboard of ideas on problem solving is locuplete and a relevant
quote by Joseph Stalin on education as a weapon, secure in the
knowledge that if you want to find a gift for any memorable events like
birthdays, weddings, or anniversaries, you know that the Alaskanpoet can
provide you with a unique customized poem at a great price tailored to the
event and the recipient. You need only contact me for details.
1. National Clam Chowder Day—celebrating a great meal whether it is Manhattan or New England
and for this Alaskan brings back great memories of digging up a pail of clams
at low tide off our front door in Petersburg and then making clam chowder to
enjoy.
2. National Day Kuwait—slow day for holidays unless in Kuwait where the country
celebrates National Day, showing the world what a unique place Kuwaitis believe
their country to be especially since the Iraqis were evicted by the Coalition
Forces.
3. 2003 Number One Song— the number one song in 2003 on a run of 4 weeks in that
position “All I Have” by Jenifer Lopez feat. LL Cool J. Here is a
recording of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeSJ2YdhG5k
4. Word of the Day—today’s word of the day is “locuplete” which means amply
stocked which aptly describes the amount of rhetoric the Blues and Reds all too
willing to sling at each other.
5. Too Biased For Any Handler—celebrating or bemoaning the birth
on this day in 1975 of Chelsea Handler who once touted herself as a comedian
and has now degenerated into a really too over the top rabid anti-Trumpster
with rants that are not funny but are
the dog whistles of hate and discord that rational people should completely
tune out.
On
this day
in:
a. 1956 in a better late than never moment Nikita Khrushchev in
a speech entitled On the Cult of
Personality and Its Consequences denounced the largest mass murder in
history, Joseph Stalin, and the cult of personality that surrounded him.
b. 1987 Southern Methodist University became the first collegiate
football team to receive what is known as the “death penalty” and was banned
from any competition in 1987 due to violations of NCAA rules.
c. 1991 with the Soviet Union having dissolved, the Warsaw Pact
was also dissolved.
d. 1994 at the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, West Bank, Baruch
Goldstein opened fire on Palestinian worshippers with an automatic rifle, killing
29 and wounding 125 before he was beaten to death by the survivors.
e. 1997 Yi Han-yong, a defector from North Korea and relative of
Kim Jong-Un was murdered in Bundang, South Korea by unknown assailants who were
never caught but believed to be North Korean special forces.
Reflections on our educational system and its PC slant that proves
the wisdom of this mass murderer: “Education is a weapon whose effects depend
on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.” Joseph Stalin Please
