Elephants Trumpeting; Donkeys Braying: Who Becomes President In 2016?
Aristotle, once said that elephants were “the animal which surpasses all others in wit and mind,” we can only hope and pray this is a true representation of the Republican Party who just slid into home base by an overwhelming mandate from the majority of Americans.
I’m happy for the Republicans, but at the same time, I feel sorry for the losers––all the broken hearted who no doubt shed tears in the midst of their constituents jubilation. It can’t be an easy time for them. May their wounds heal and they lend their talents to more rewarding careers.
A news reporter interviewed Dobie, a punk rapper: “What do you think happened last night?”
Throwing back his head he laughed. “The Elephant raised his trunk and kicked some Ass.”
He said it for a laugh, but the truth was elephants were stampeding, not to kick anyone, but to assume a position of power from which they could act and get results. Time will tell.
It’s interesting that real and iconic elephants tend to show lateral preference when grasping with their trunks: some prefer to twist them to the left, others to the right. But one thing for sure, they are seldom confused with the Donkeys of the world.
The difference? Elephants work smart and never forget the past one hundred fifty years of dismal experiments in Marxism–all the fascist, socialists, and communists trying to cure the worlds problems with oppresive self-serving governments. Oh, sure, once and awhile a group of socialist and communist is the better choice between two evils, but it is not the norm, or have they ever achieved the results of compassionate capitalism. It is impossible for countries who have no means to generate the extra money needed to provide sufficent help. Yet the so-called progressives remain as stubborn as the Jack Ass.They deny the realty that helping ourselves and others around the world requires a country to have a healthy and thriving economy.
And what about this name liberals like to use? Progressives? Really? Of course It’s their right to call themselves what ever they wish, but there are those who would say that rather than progressive, the liberals are stuck in their ways, and stubborn as their Donkey icon. Why? Despite Hitlers and Stalin’s disregard for human life, the Dems still haven’t learned, that people can’t live by bread alone. That they need to be satisfied and free to make a living from doing jobs they love––honest work that produces goods and services people are willing to buy from money they have earned––whether by trade or currency.
Everything else is lip service. Tell me you like my latest book I am pleased, but purchase it, read it, and write a review, and I will believe you are sincere. As one former democrat said the other day, “Show me the money, not a bunch of excuses why the people you purport to help, suffer more and more with each passing day.”
It’s no secret that the stubborn die hard disciples of Alensky Rules for Radicals, continue to perpetuate the Democrats Theme Song, “The End Justifies The Means.” That tune plays over and over, and discouragers voters from thinking for themselves. But anyone who actually reads Alinsky, finds the common man is only a vote to him. Then too, many rely on what grandpa taught them, “Our party is for the working man.” And seriously, do you know anyone, blue collar or white collar, who doesn’t “work” for a living?” Today too many are working harder and longer and enjoying theselves less.
Self-serving bueracrats crack the whip and makes slaves out of everyone while they sit back and enjoy benefits denied their constituants. Not just during the time they serve, but for life. And yet liberals continue to harp about the citizens being greedy. Is there anyone more greedy than big government playing Robin Hood?
The saddest part? Far too many good people have been lulled into doing nothing and relying on big government to do their thinking for them. They believe the party line, the old saw that Fox News, Billionaires, and Corporate America are the root of poverty. And its right here many Donkey’s turn into sheep and blindly follow rather than think for themselves. This only makes everyones living conditions worse, not better. Detroit, Michigan is the perfect example. Its a war zone. Yet, Congress so far, has done little to help. Officals there may mean well and have good intentions. But that doesn’t cut it, anymore than it would in a profitable corporation. The city needs someone with executive ability––a Donald Trump––who could quickly turn the town into a thriving metropolis. All people are not created with equal ability to lead. Ask any US Army General.
Between now and the 2016, “The Elephants” need to show us their stuff and not let the Donkeys twist their trunks. Last election far too many Republicans thought nobody could be so stupid as to make the same mistake twice. But they were proven wrong. Even with Donkeys playing tricks at the polls, the election should have been a landside for Republicans.
Time is of the essence. As Edmund Burke said, “All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” Republicans need to act quickly to make the United States of America, once again the most prosperous nation in the world––let Hilary know it’s individuals with a dream who work hard that creates businesses and the jobs to match––not big government.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rules_for_Radicals
This article keeps getting changed by the dems but if you read it to the end you’ll get a pretty good idea of what Saul Alinsky’s 12 Rules for Radicals are all about. If you don’t want to do that, below is a brief summary.
Saul Alinsky’s 12 Rules for Radicals
- RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood. (These are two things of which there is a plentiful supply. Government and corporations always have a difficult time appealing to people, and usually do so almost exclusively with economic arguments.)
- RULE 2: “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone. (Organizations under attack wonder why radicals don’t address the “real” issues. This is why. They avoid things with which they have no knowledge.)
- RULE 3: “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty. (This happens all the time. Watch how many organizations under attack are blind-sided by seemingly irrelevant arguments that they are then forced to address.)
- RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)
- RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)
- RULE 6: “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones. (Radical activists, in this sense, are no different that any other human being. We all avoid “un-fun” activities, and but we revel at and enjoy the ones that work and bring results.)
- RULE 7: “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news. (Even radical activists get bored. So to keep them excited and involved, organizers are constantly coming up with new tactics.)
- RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new. (Attack, attack, attack from all sides, never giving the reeling organization a chance to rest, regroup, recover and re-strategize.)
- RULE 9: “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist. (Perception is reality. Large organizations always prepare a worst-case scenario, something that may be furthest from the activists’ minds. The upshot is that the organization will expend enormous time and energy, creating in its own collective mind the direst of conclusions. The possibilities can easily poison the mind and result in demoralization.)
- RULE 10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog. (Unions used this tactic. Peaceful [albeit loud] demonstrations during the heyday of unions in the early to mid-20th Century incurred management’s wrath, often in the form of violence that eventually brought public sympathy to their side.)
- RULE 11: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem. (Old saw: If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Activist organizations have an agenda, and their strategy is to hold a place at the table, to be given a forum to wield their power. So, they have to have a compromise solution.)
- RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

Hopefully one day soon we will move beyond the dualistic “us vs. them” mentality in politics. When we side with one party against another we naturally turn a blind eye to the fools and liars in the party we favour.
The creativity in our society comes out of the interplay of communal and competitive tendencies, just as it does in the rest of nature. A corporation can only be competitive if the communal tendencies within it at least balance personal competition. People have to work as a team. The broader society is a bit different because there is no selection for talent as there is in a corporation. We don’t do what the Spartans did and leave our babies on the doorstep overnight so the weak ones will die. Society is like a garden and citizens like plants. We need to provide a healthy stable environment and make sure that everyone gets what they need to thrive, just as we would water and fertilise the garden. Some plants will thrive, some won’t, but we need to give them all a fair chance because we can’t be sure which will and which won’t, and we really don’t want a society in which we pull people out like weeds and throw them on the compost. Having said that, we don’t want to deprive the strongest plants of water and nutrients by redirecting these to where other plants are failing to thrive. Nor do we want to over water and fertilise the strongest plants to reward them for their success. It is possible to have too much water, for instance, and it will make the plant sick.
But we are to achieve a healthy society it has to be freely chosen. If we learn that what is good for society as a whole is good for ourselves, and that short-term self-interest can bring suffering to all, then we can work together on what really matters, which is not filling our bank balances but growing community.
This shouldn’t be imposed though. If we are selfish, or overly competitive, it is because we are neurotically insecure and thus armoured. Our capacity for love is impeded by our armouring. To try to force a selfish or overly competitive person to be communal would be oppressive. So there is a need for balance, to allow those still living in the old world of neurosis to be free from oppression, while not allowing their neurosis to lead us all down the path to destruction.
Why do right wing individuals only use authoritarian tyrants as an example of the left in action? What about the left wing governments of post war Britain which built an efficient welfare system which took the poor from life in rat-infested slums to universal health care and a decent quality of life. The problem with Stalin was that he was an authoritarian. A right wing authoritarian like the U.S.-friendly Augusto Pinochet was cut from the same cloth. Both used death squads to silence their critics. But Pinochet was anti-communist and pro-capitalist. And not all socialism leads to Marxism. The best economy is a mixed economy – one which has efficient private enterprise to generate wealth but also a decent welfare system to make sure that the community’s needs are taken care of and to make sure that concentration of wealth doesn’t bring about economic collapse.
Dualists – right wing or left wing – can’t see reality. They look at the world with a filter which allows them to maintain their own illusions.
What I would like to see is all of the lies of the world exposed. Oppressive power structures are always supported by lies. Imagine if George Bush had had to say : “No Iraqis had anything to do with 9/11 and Saddam Hussein (our old friend who we supported when he was committing mass murder against the Iranians) hasn’t got any weapons of mass destruction. But come on folks, let’s go bomb the crap out of them anyway.” Or if Coca Cola had to say : “Drink a bottle of sugar water that will probably rot your teeth and might contribute to you getting diabetes” instead of “Coke adds life.” Now it might be oppressive if people were forced to tell the truth, but we need to stop being fools and wake up to the lies. And that means stopping lying to ourselves.

Hey, Joe Blow, as usual you leave us with a thought provoking comment. It would indeed be something, if even for one day, a magic wand could be waved that would put a spell over the world that would cause us all to speak the unvarnished truth. (Wasn’t there a movie made where the hero did this?) But If it happened suddenly, the shock of it, could be like a man placed in an ice cold shower . . . give him a heart attack. Maybe what we could do iinstead, is to sell the novel idea, and let Corporate America take the lead. Coke could tell the truth about Stevia, and brag about how it won’t harm the consumer or rot her teeth. (Tests would back up their claims.) Then they could remove all Coke products that were harmful. The positive action would inspire other companies to do the same. If it caught on, “Telling the Truth” could become popular everywhere. It could help transform the world. I like it! Thanks old friend.

Hi, Alan. Nice to hear from you again. I’m not sure Trump could save Detroit either. But I see no relation between Trump’s business ability and the failure of the Atlantic City Casinos. We’ve all seen what he is capable of doing. Think about it. If the man could restore Detroit he would be hero to everyone. Donald would have to be convinced the venture was not only feasable, but practical and profitable. If he was, it would be a done deal and he’d not only put Detroit back on its feet, the city would be transformed into a paradise for all. I can see him now standing before Washington: “I have a dream . . . “

Our flag is red, white and blue but our government is just red and blue, Two arms, left and right, serving a head of globalist rulers.
If all the governments of the world were capitalistic, or for that matter Christian, I fear there would be no fewer wars. People will always suffer the same deadly seven sins.

Doug. Thanks for the comment. I’m hoping between now
and the 2016 election, both Democrats and Republicans will discover
ways to respond to the needs of the citizens of the United States
of America. At one time, the state appointed U.S. Senators from each state. Under President Wilson, appointments were abolished, and the will of the people was no longer represented. The result? We ended up with elected United State Senators who could be bought off by special interest groups. The people need to take back the country and demand control be returned to the individual states, and that U.S. Senators serve only one term. Enough already of the good old boys club. And I’ll bet you already know this! Thanks again for commenting.

Other than the guns themselves, you’ll have to pay for ammunition, and replacement gas canisters or battery charging, depending on the type of
gun you have. When you are finally ready to shoot your gun you need to use
common sense, do not shoot at pets, wild animals or other people as
this is cruel and will cause pain. Would “a quick retooling”
involve completely replacing the barrel, bolt, upper and lower

they could of popped in a free for all match and let the others
