Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For October 14, 2019 I you had any doubt
that the Blues are conducting a Banana Republic like kangaroo court for their impeachment
inquiry that doubt should be tossed as Red Representative Matt Gaetz was ousted
from attending a House Intelligence grilling of Fiona Hill when Blue members
who are not members of the Committee were allowed (Blue hearings in closed
doors with no Red involvement is a travesty of justice); NBC which is reeling
over its failure to act on Lauer’s alleged sexual perversion is trying to circle
its wagons and cast dispersions on Farrow’s motives as his book Capture and Kill comes out on Tuesday;
Chris Hayes of MSNBC has always seemed to me to be a wimp especially when locked
into an anti-trump line but today attacking NBC for its response to sexual
escapades of Weinstein finally seemed to show some spine; Project Veritas, a conservative watchdog had a
mole inside CNN to record secretly evidence of bias at CNN and released the
first of a series of tapes from Jeff Zucker and others at CNN that clearly show
bias and a desire to do whatever is necessary to impeach Trump: https://www.foxnews.com/media/project-veritass-alleged-cnn-whistleblower-says-network-is-pumping-out-propaganda
(fortunately the viewers have spoken with their ideas on Zucker and his
vendetta against Trump watching Fox in numbers to make it number one in viewers
for 71 successive quarters over the Cack New Network and Mostly Slanted News
and Biased Cack; in addition to sexual pervasion the reptilian brain evidently
loves the “Fake News” at MSNBC as its president Phil Griffin is being slammed
for showing a picture of the naked vagina of newswoman Maria Menounos; AOC received news of a belated 30th
birthday president-the fact that centrist New York City Councilman Fernando Cabrera
an immigrant from Venezuela who has seen the reality of socialism that AOC
blindly advocates will run against her in the Blue primary (let’s hope she and
the other members of the idiotic anti-Semite Squad go down to defeat with her;
Warren who can taste victory in the primaries so bad is ramping up her Pinocchio
Meter big time claiming she is a “capitalist”
which Sanders who is becoming more desperate promoted and which most Americans
believe is more farfetched than her claim to be a Cherokee which she blatantly
used to advance her career; in Chicago through October 13, 2019, 2212 have been
shot, of whom, 382 have died; in Baltimore with a fraction of Chicago’s
population, 272 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 Ray Charles, the fact that you love premite to those worthy of it and
a relevant quote on the needed attributes of a commander in chief from Arthur
L. Herman, 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

1. World Standards Day—first
celebrated on this day in 1970 to promote awareness of the importance of
standards used in commerce and our ways of life and enjoyment.
2. National Kick Butt Day—promoting awareness of unlike
Columbus Day which is facing strong and growing headwinds, the need to stop smoking
which kills far too many millions with both first hand and second hand smoke.
3. 1961 Number One Song— the number
one song in 1961 on this day on a run of 2 weeks in the position was “Hit the
Road Jack” by Ray Charles. Here is a recording of the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rEsVp5tiDQ.
Ray battled drug addiction for many years and finally ran out of road on June
10, 2004 at the age of 73.
4. Word of the Day—today’s word of the day is “premite”
which means to give a prize which we would love to give to the first politician
who is truthful.
5. Shaken Not Stirred—celebrating the birthday
of noted actor who followed Sean Connery
as James Bond in 1973 in 7 Bond movies and left us on May 23, 2017.
On this day in:
a. 1962
the Cuban Missile Crisis, the closest that the U.S. and the Soviet Union ever
came to nuclear war, commenced on this day when a U.S. reconnaissance airplane
detected Soviet ballistic missiles being installed in Cuba.
b. 1968
the first live broadcast from a space ship in orbit was performed by the crew
of Apollo 7.
c.
1982 President Ronald Reagan proclaimed the War on Drugs which our Opiod Crisis
and the influx of Meth and other drugs across our Southern Border clearly show
has not been won.
d. 1998 Eric Randolph was
charged with the pipe bombing at the Atlanta Summer Olympic Games and three
other bombings at different times and locations eluded capture until May 31,
2003. He pled guilty to avoid the death penalty and is not serving 4 life
sentences without possibility of parole.
e. 2012 Felix Baumgarnter
jumped from a balloon some 24 miles above the Earth to break the sound barrier
reaching an estimated speed of 843.6 miles per hour before ultimately opening
his parachute to live to describe his trip.
Reflections
on the Cuban Missile Crisis: “The lesson of the Cuban Missile Crisis is plain:
Strength prevents war; weakness invites it. We need a commander-in-chief who
understands that - and who won't leave us facing a foe who thinks he doesn't.”
Arthur L. Herman, noted American Historian who msut no longer be shaking in his
boots with a weak president like Obama in the White House.
