Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For September 26, 2019 Schiff who has
long since thrown all pretenses of credibility over the cliff was at it today,
badgering his committee’s star witness Maguire, trying to find criminal intent
by President Trump where none exists while in an anticipation frenzy over
having the biased whistleblower testify on his second hand knowledge of Trump’s
alleged actions with respect to Biden and the Ukraine (of all the people to
lead the impeachment charge, the Blues have blundered big time with their
choice of Adam Schiff whose lying during the Mueller witch-hunt was off the
charts; the whistleblower, who is reported to be a Blue presidential candidate
supporter, has no direct knowledge of any of the actions he reported on in his
letter to Congress, only hearsay which means the extent to which he is another
Strzock and what his sources have to say will make for interesting political
theater (Trump is a smart man and it begs the question of his intelligence that
he would use a transcribed phone call with multiple persons on line to like the
“mob boss” lying Adam Schiff portrays him to be to convey a squeeze on the new
president of Ukraine); Schiff really out did himself in his pathetic biased
parody of Trump’s phone call the Ukraine’s President once again forfeiting any
credibility as to objectivity and pursuing and telling the truth https://www.foxnews.com/media/schiff-parody
(listen to it yourselves); in war it is said that the first casualty is truth
but in the 2020 political war against Trump is Joe Biden whose years of service
as a loyal Blue will be sacrificed on the altar of getting Trump; Pelosi taking
a page out of the Nixon Impeachment Playbook is claiming that the Trump
Administration is guilty of a cover up because the electronic transcription was
placed on a secure server (sure sounds like a stretch but to be expected from
the partisan Blues who detest Trump with a passion that defies comprehension); on
the drinking and not driving front, the CEO of Blue Shield of North Carolina
has resigned after being arrest for a DUI with his minor children in the car
and refusing to take a breathalyzer test; on the hurricane front, the U.S.
received good news that Tropical Storm Karen is weakening but Hurricane Lorenzo
far out in the Atlantic has become a monster CAT 4 storm while in the era of
climate change a massive blizzard has hit the Rockies and Montana; on the
flying can be miserable front, Japan Airlines will now be showing passengers
seeking to select seats, which seats have been taken by those 2 years old or
younger; the college admissions cheating scandal that has rocked this nation
has sentenced its third perpetrator, Los Angeles-based executive Stephen
Semprevivo, 53, who was ordered on Thursday morning to serve four months behind
bars, pay a $100,000 fine and serve 500 hours of community service and be
subject to two years of supervised probation; MSNBC biased “journalist” Chris Matthews
could hardly hold his glee claiming that the Blues “have got him” and need no
more hearings to impeach Trump; in Chicago through September 25, 2019, 2099
have been shot of whom 361 have died; and in Baltimore with a fraction of
Chicago’s population, 252 have been murdered in Baltimore (when will Chicago
and Baltimore get serious about this carnage or is this the case of true racism
as a Blue run city turns a deaf ear and a blind eye to the slaughter of people
of color by people of color and when will the left focus on the problem of
color on color shootings in Blue run cities which have been more deadly and
more numerous than random mass shootings?
As always, I hope you enjoy today’s holidays and
observances, factoids of interest for this day in history, a musical link
to Bing Crosby and John Scott Trotter and His Orchestra and the Williams
Brothers Quartet, the fact that you are
not a portreeve in today’s environment, and a relevant quote on the first Nixon
Kennedy Presidential Debate by Senator Bob Dole, secure
in the knowledge that if you want to find a gift for any memorable events
like Father’s Day, college graduations, 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. Good
Neighbor Day—created by Presidential Proclamation by President Jimmy Carter
on September 24, 1978 and later by Senate Resolution changed to September 26 on
April 28, 2004.
2. Mesothelioma Awareness Day—created
by the Mesothelioma Awareness Foundation in 2004 to promote awareness of this
deadly disease and to raise funds for its cure. If you see someone wearing a
blue shirt it could mean that the Blues are not celebrating winning the 2020
elections but rather he or she is supporting the observance of this day.
3. 1944 Number One Song— the
number one song in 1944 on this day on a run of 9 weeks in the position was “Swinging
on a Star” by Bing Crosby with John Scott Trotter and His Orchestra and the
Williams Brothers Quartet. Here is a recording of the song: https://archive.org/details/78_swinging-on-a-star_bing-crosby-john-scott-trotter-and-his-orchestra-williams-brothe_gbia0108910b/Swinging+on+a+Star+-+Bing+Crosby+-+John+Scott+Trotter+and+His+Orchestra.flac.
4. Word of the Day—today’s word of the day is “portreeve”
which means a mayor charged with keeping the peace in a port city or market borough
in early England but if used to describe the accomplishments of Mayor Di Blasio
or Eric Garcetti synonymous with failure.
5. He’s Back And So Is She--celebrating the birth on
this day in 1956 of Linda Hamilton, best known for her role as Sarah Connor in the Terminator movies including the most
recent Terminator the Dark State, produced
by her ex-husband James Cameron.
On this day in:

agreed to a transfer of Hong Kong to China in 1997.

Reflections on the power of TV over
radio in the Nixon Kennedy First 1960 Presidential Debate: “"I was listening to it on the radio coming into
Lincoln, Kansas, and I thought Nixon was doing a great job. "Then I saw
the TV clips the next morning, and he ... didn't look well. Kennedy was young
and articulate and ... wiped him out. I was listening to it on the radio coming
into Lincoln, Kansas, and I thought Nixon was doing a great job. Then I saw the TV clips the next morning, and
he ... didn't look well. Kennedy was young and articulate and ... wiped him
out." Former
Senator Bob Dole the unsuccessful Republican candidate in 1996 against Bill
Clinton.
