Its all about the socialists first principle ‘CONTROL’.
A conspiracy-theory too far? Barry’s lap-pit-bull holds fire on the Hillary indictment until the appropriate moment, and then when the trigger is pulled and she’s dragged off in an orange pantsuit and steel bracelets … The Mooch slides on into the Donkey nomination…

The depressing part is that this is a perfectly plausible scenario.
How far the Republic has fallen…..
Given how the Husseins despise the HillBillies, I’d say it’s more than plausible.
Lord, please let the low-infos all stay home on election day. Please give the world President Cruz!
I would love it if Obama torpedoes Hillary and Hillary torpedoes Obama.It would be the highlight of the decade to see both of them behind bars.
Husseins vs HillBillies. Axelrod vs Carville.
I’d buy a ticket to that show!
Sugar! Some people are rake thin because they live on the Mediterranean diet – sweet strong black coffee and a cigarette for breakfast.
The problem is that food scientists add sugar to food until it reaches the “bliss point”. The amount being added is continually increasing as people get accustomed to what they are being fed, and they are unaware of how much sugar they are taking in. Next time you are in a supermarket do a bit of checking on the labels of tinned food – especially the amount of sugar per serving. Every 4 grams is a teaspoon of sugar. It adds up very quickly. It also makes you think about your choices, e.g. the tinned tomato with no added sugar vs the one with.
There can be no doubt that obesity is linked to the amount of sugar in ones diet, and the way one’s body deals with it.
However it is not for the government to tell one what to eat (or drink) but the responsibility of the person to educate themselves about what they eat.
And I’m bloody tired of looking for products which aren’t “gluten free”, low sugar and low fat. I LIKE sugar and fat in my diet and I’m so thin that if I stand side-on I’m invisible.
The problem is not the sugar – in Mexico I can drink all the coca-cola I want, all the pastries my heart desires and all the carbs I can handle… in Mexico the sugar is real sugar not the high fructose corn syrup and synthetic crap used in the states… the government should be banning that… but noooo, the do-gooder wants to take away my sugar… I could spend three months in Mexico and stay nice and thin without doing my cardio… but once I cross the border to get back in the states the weight comes back in about two weeks – I am convinced it is all the synthetics and genetically modified food in America… and every person that goes back and forth between the two countries will tell you the same thing… so to keep those extra pounds off in the US – I go for a quick run around the neighborhood in the morning (takes about 20 min.) and I go for long walks in the evening and I spend time trekking in nature on the week ends… but that is just me – I also find that all the coffee helps to regulate my weight and curves my hunger… you know there was a time in America when the government promoted Victory Gardens and encouraged the citizenry to grow its own food and live a real healthy lifestyle… now you are lucky if you live in a state that wont send a environmental swat team to your house for growing vegetables… I am old enough to remember a fat free America – when I was a kid nobodies mother in the neighborhood was fat… and none of them worked outside of the home… the biggest women were the ones that pushed out more children but they were not fat – thicker than most but not at all what we would call fat… there were a couple of overweight kids but they turned that into muscle by the time of junior high and ended up on the football team… even in high school in the eighties I can only really remember two fat kids from school… so what happened… it sure as hell wasn’t the sugar… because we were all on sugar back then…
“Fat free” food has been the problem…..it tastes like shit so they sweeten it. Take a look at your average low fat yoghurt – flavoured and sweetened and kids are raised on it because “its good for them”. It is not a touch on that lovely old fashioned full fat unflavoured stuff… when you can find it.
Personally I eat a high fat diet – lots of eggs, bacon, meat, and very little sugar as I don’t really like things that are sweet.
Victor -the body converts di- and poly-saccharides into glucose – a monosaccharide, to be used for energy production as in the Kreb’s cycle that biology classes are so keen to teach. All excess glucose intake is converted into fat. Maybe you are utilising more glucose when you are in Mexico and taking in more sugar in The States in all your other highly processed food. It does not just disappear into thin air.
maybe… but you are right about diet food – it taste like crap – I avoid anything labelled diet and fat free… and have a high fat diet and high protein… eggs, bacon, steak, chicken… I am not over-weight, but still not finished sculpting my body to what I want… and I do eat junk food, but I am active… but no, I don’t think sugar is a problem… salt is not a problem and fat is not a problem – inactivity combined with all the crap from the lab that is in the food is a problem.
Seems the judge in the Hammond Ranch case is a real piece of work-

Raised in a hippie commune,was a child advocate judge before being promoted from the cheap seats by Obama,before being ousted for stalking a fellow coworker.
What a piece of perambulating garbage!
So typical of this Administration’s appointments.
Darin, with reference to the article you posted, as noted in some of the comments below the article – “what about the natural gas and possible uranium deposits, under the Hammond Ranch”?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6DCk_MkuIs
The above link is to a youtube post from one William Mount. Now I don’t know the credibility of Mr Mount, and certainly anyone who calls a couple of senators and the BLM as a bunch of “Hors” leaves the impression something of a rube and or a “bitter clinger” in the back of the mind. (Speaking personally, I find bitter clingers far more appealing than cultural Marxists, but that is beside the point).
And the point here is this, Mr. Mount brings up the issue of US geological survey Bulletin 1740-B. Now consider the implications, are the feds operating in good faith, or are they simply a pack of well dressed thieves, using the law, or more correctly, the legal system to engineer a slyly designed heist?
Certainly worth considering,especially when considering that part of the previous court settlement of the Hammond case, vis a vie the monies claimed by the feds for back fees on grazing rights is to be paid within a certain time frame; failure to met payment deadline to result in forfeiture of the ranch to the BLM. The Hammonds can hardly be in a position to repay those fees while locked away for the next 5 years.
If this turns out to be true, then I’m with KG on this one, hanging is simply to good for themgood for
Dear me, in too much of a rush….again.
“hanging is simply too good for them.”
Funny thing was, I was not even looking for anything on the issue of the Hammond Ranch at the time; I was watching a youtube clip on a Noel Coward song entitled “Let’s not be beastly to the Hun”, when at the end of the piece, as is normal, a couple of other options to watch popped up on the youtube page.
I guess just goes to show just how much better youtube and other assorted internet providers, know our preferences, though to be truthful, I haven’t spent a lot of time on the Hammond issue other than read a couple of articles on the stand off at the Oregon nature reserve.
Honestly I have no idea if the resources claims are true.It’s possible,it’s also possible that radical environmentalism and agenda 21 are at work here and they simply want all human life off the range.It’s possible that Hillary has already got her 30 pieces of silver by selling access to the Chicoms.
The way I see it we have not one,but three separate governments at work here in the US.We have the right and left paradigms that are the visible face and then we have the bureaucratic government that is unelected and unaccountable.Say what you want both political paradigms can be eventually voted out,but the bureaucratic government is forever.
Darin, I believe that the US geological survey Bulletin 1470-B was done in 1976. True or false? Not sure how to get a copy of it, but I’m sure it would not be beyond the means of any competent investigative journalist…a genuine one that is. That could put this argument to rest
Also another correction (long after it matters though), it is 2 congressmen not senators).
A poor, disaffected Chappie of Muslim persuasion was shot to death in Paris today simply for rushing towards a policeman whilst waving a machete and yelling Allahu Akbar. Oh well, in time I will overcome my grief and rebuild.
Courage mon ami! Time will heal your devastation.

Give up the sugar? What will I do with it all?
Grind it down to powder maybe? Give it a dispersal charge and a secondary trigger linked to an ignition charge, maybe?

‘German Minister: Right-Wing Chat Rooms ‘At Least As Awful As’ Cologne Sex Attacks’
http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/01/07/german-interior-minister-right-wing-chat-rooms-at-least-as-awful-as-cologne-sex-attacks/
Tomorrow’s headline: “German Minister lynched by German nationalists for TREASON!”
@Victor: about the weight thingy in Mexico – if the REAL sugar won’t make you fat and the lack of government regulations on food in that country keeps you fit and healthy – THEN WHY THE HELL DO I SEE SO MANY PICTURES OF FAT MEXICANS?
Be honest: fat people are to be found everywhere on the planet – the issue of sugar and government regulation (or lack there of) of food has little or nothing to do with the problem.
The problem is an individual one – people like to eat! – PEOPLE LIKE TO EAT A LOT! – PEOPLE EAT TOO MUCH!
1. yes, there are fat people in Mexico… more than there used to be (just like in America).
2. there is government regulation in Mexico… and if you ever see a commercial for anything that looks like junk food including sodas in Mexico, (not Spanish networks from the states) – they are always accompanied by text at the bottom of the screen to eat healthy food.
3. yes, it comes down to an individual choice – I was mostly talking about myself in that comment… I do eat too much… bread and sugar and chocolate… it is my choice… but I am not fat… that too is my choice… and I don’t care if people want to be fat – none of my f*cking business… it only concerns me when the government wants to take my money to give it to unhealthy fat people… it concern me when my government tells me what I can and cannot put into my body… it concerns me when my government refuses to label genetically modified foods… other than that… I don’t care.
4. why are you looking at pictures of fat Mexicans? my friend… google hot young bodies on the beaches of Mexico or something… just sayin’…
It comes down to work.In America fewer and fewer people actually do physical work.We have become a nation of sitters,the same is slowly happening in Mexico,more backhoes less shovels,less hoes and more tractors and cultivators etc.
When you add to that food being cheaper than it ever has been and manufacturers competing for market by making things taste good you get more fat people.
Hillary Clinton and her driver were cruising home along a country road one evening when an old cow loomed in front of the car. The driver tried to avoid it but couldn’t. The aged cow was struck and killed.
Hillary told her driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what had happened.
She said that he should resist any request from the farmer to pay for the animal, but she said, “you killed it, so if they have to have money, it will come out of your pocket!”
She stayed in the car making phone calls.
About an hour later the driver staggered back to the car with his clothes in disarray. He was holding a half-empty bottle of expensive wine in one hand, a huge Cuban cigar in the other, and was smiling happily, smeared with lipstick.
“What happened to you,” asked Hillary?
“Well,” the driver replied, “the farmer gave me the cigar, his wife gave me the wine, and their beautiful twin daughters made passionate love to me.”
“What did you tell them?” asked Hillary.
The driver replied, “I just stepped inside the door and said, ‘I’m Hillary Clinton’s driver and I’ve just killed the old cow.’
The rest happened so fast I couldn’t stop it.”
A classic!
Obama knows revolution is brewing in the teapot!

After careful consideration, I have come full 360. I am now back at the view I held several months ago:
Donald Trump is a Democrat (specifically a Clinton) plant.
Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s actually helping the GOP to nominate a genuine Conservative for the first time in 30 years, but that’s down to the fact that liberals, democrats and establishment republicans (there, I just repeated myself three times) have no idea what real Americans want.
Noah Rothman (I know, I know, he’s an eGOP shill, but he happens to be right this time) has written previously about how often Trump has saved the Donkeys from their own stupidity by throwing a bomb to divert the news cycle. And now, when all of America should be talking about the Emperor Hussein’s usurpation of the Second Amendment, he’s done it again with this Cruz Birther bullshit. Just because up until now Trump has mostly said what Americans are thinking, doesn’t mean his intent wasn’t to divert from the donkeys stepping in their own droppings.
I think the end result of the Trump insurgency will be either (a) Trump is nominated and runs a McCain/Romney campaign against Queen Cacklepants, meaning the Clinton Crime Family goes back to the White House (subject of course to the Husseins holding fire on the indictment, as I mentioned yesterday), or (b) Cruz wins the nomination, the result being a Reagan-esque sweep of the Electoral College and Queen Cacklepants curled up in a ball in the corner, crying for her Huma (while FBI agents approach with orange jumpsuit and steel bracelets).
Either way, I’ll say it again: Trump is a Donkey.
I’m not so sure.
Trump has brought subjects the Donks would rather hide into the election debate which would never have been done before ……. and some are very anti the Butcher of Benghazi and her perverted husband. Even the MSM has been unable to not report it.
I still hope that he is a stalking horse for Cruz. There has been very little animosity between them and that there has probably been a smoke screen. What better a time to get the ‘eligibility’ question out of the way.
I can’t see him as a stalking horse for Cruz. Trump is a long-time friend of the HillBillies, and Cruz is the one GOP candidate who could not just beat Queen Cacklepants, but destroy her entire world-view and leave her tapping out, begging for mercy.
One simply does not do that to the Clinton Crime Family.
And if you look at the issues he’s raised, they’re issues the Dems and the establishment Repubs have largely united on. Illegal aliens? The Gang of 8 amnesty bill was bi-partisan, and led by GOP. The issues he’s raised have resonated with Americans, to the utter astonishment of both parties. The consultants have been telling the Repubs to lay down and surrender on immigration, accept the browning of America and permanent minority status. That the surrender position isn’t one the majority of Americans want is a shock to them.
I sincerely hope you’re right and I’m wrong.
I don’t buy it. The nonsense about him being a friend of the Democrats is ridiculous.
If you set up shop in an Italian neighbourhood then sooner or later you’re going to have to shake hands with the Mafia, and you better smile while you do it.
That doesn’t mean you like the Mafia, or approve of what they do. It’s simply the ONLY way left to do business.
I guess we’ll see in the fullness of time. Maybe I’m just jaded; after all, we’ve been scammed every time for the past 30 years or so.
“Time makes fools of us all.”
At least it will be interesting. I couldn’t survive another four years of republican backpeddling, even from across the Pacific.
We’re running out of time to save western civilisation. I think with a HillBilly Presidency, it’ll be a “stick a fork in it, it’s done.”

This woman, Jo Pert, was killed by an assailant who did not know her just down the road from where I live. He subsequently handed himself into the police and the weapon used. All very sad. The MSM has not done much to try to connect the dots.
Here are few interesting points:-
– The police were quick to announce that they did not know each other. Why, she was not alive to confirm that?
– Her kids were immediately whisked off to the grandparents in Wanganui. Why?
– Eventually the father is quoted as refusing to comment. Why has he not got the kids?
–About three years ago, Ms (sic) Pert made an impassioned plea against proposed Family Court reforms in a submission to Parliament.. Now we are getting closer to the the truth. Has the assailant had his kids taken away from him by the Family Courts and does he blame Ms Pert’s activism? Well wait and see….
BTW she had also become friendly with Paula Bennett.
Great points, Mawm and some of them occurred to me also. But given the state of the NZ media I doubt we’ll see anything other than ‘poooor perfect mommy killed by savage male”.
Just Damn! This guy is great at synthesis:
Nimrod at GoV
This is really the long and the short of it — the Progressive Movement.
The long — the long march through the institutions was always, ostensibly, about “seeking the good over bad.”
The short — the ultimate goal is preventing any resistance to totalitarian rule.
The endgame more precisely is the removal from the people of the world any effective means to say “NO”.
Yep.
I take it you know Orwell’s explanation for Newspeak then? Paraphrasing: The banning of words from common language to such extent as to make dissenting thought impossible — at least to the extent that words are needed to express any thought.
Or as you put it, the ability to conceive of “No.”
Spot-on!
“After careful consideration, I have come full 360. I am now back at the view I held several months ago:
Donald Trump is a Democrat (specifically a Clinton) plant…”
I think you’re wrong, Gantt – I think Trump is the game changer needed to beat both the Democommies and the RINO TRAITOR ESTABLISHMENT…
Yes, I know Trump is a not small limited government type – In fact, he’s the Julius Caesar type of nationalist who wants big central government and powerful military at his beck and call – If you look at the great men at critical times in history, you know what I’m talking about….Caesar…Napoleon…Lincoln.
Obama and the Progressives are wrong – America will never accept a communist style internationalist government.
On the other hand, they will accept a fascist style of authoritarian nationalist government that preserves the façade of a representative republic. It worked well for the Romans for 500 years.
I think the American presidency has reached its final stage of evolution – It’s become an elective dictatorship – and one wonders when a president will decide to do away with the “elective” part and the presidency become a family affair – a monarchy.
The Adams were the first to try…Then came the Bushes… Then the Clintons.
Remember along with a President Trump comes a very intelligent, handsome and imperial looking family. The very stuff of a dynasty.
Personally, I’m for the Republic and have been all my life. I get tears in my eyes when I read the Declaration, The Federalist Papers, the U.S. Constitution and the grand sweep of American history – However, I do not think a restoration of the good republic is possible because the type of American republicans needed to run the nation no longer exists.
Don’t mess with Texas-
http://trailblazersblog.dallasnews.com/2016/01/gov-greg-abbott-calls-for-constitutional-convention-to-take-back-states-rights.html/
There was a bit in Bracken’s “Foreign enemies and traitors” about a Constitutional Convention. Long story short. Be careful what you wish for. You could get back nothing at all while losing the second and first amendments.
Besides, the States have their rights just like the individual has the right to bear arms. The problem does not exist in a lack of legislature, The problem exists in an unwillingness to enforce it. The Supreme court has usurped the constitution and the bill of rights for decades now. So what’s the point of making new laws that duplicate old laws if you’re just going to allow them to be ignored all over again.
Greg Abbott is saying what he must because his position prohibits him from calling for the only measures that will actually be of any merit. Wide scale disobedience of federal laws and outright rebellion when the feds are sent in to enforce them.
It isn’t a Constitutional Convention, it’s a Convention of States. The Constitution isn’t up for discussion, it’s a forum for proposing amendments. Once amendments are proposed, they need to be accepted by 3/4 of the states before they become effective.
Given the number of GOP-controlled states at the moment, do you really think there’s any chance of the First or Second being repealed or amended?
(a minor point-of-order, while I wholeheartedly agree with the remainder of your point).
Look at it this way,yes there is a danger with this plan,however the certain danger is if we do nothing and allow the steady chiselling away of our freedoms to continue until the 1st,2nd and all the rest are gone.This I see as a certainty and not a possibility.
“This I see as a certainty and not a possibility.”
Yep, absolutely.
The NZ Herald published an editorial on 9 January 2015 titled “Obama faces hard fight on gun control“. In it, the author wrote the typical emotive pablum that’s come to be associated with the mainstream media, in what was little more than a dissertation exhorting President Obama to ever-greater levels of tyranny.
The author is clearly utterly ignorant of either the wording or historical context of both the Constitution of the US and the Bill of Rights, specifically the Second Amendment. I would normally ignore such illiterate, uneducated rubbish and move on, but on this occasion engaged in a conversation on Twitter which prompted me to pen a Letter to the Editor.
KG: I published the post elsewhere because I’ve also linked on FB and Twitter, and didn’t want the corpses of dead trolls messing up our nice hearth-rug here at CR…
Hear! Hear! THE MAN!
Good job as always, Gantt!
Yup,that writeup is just regurgitated bull shit.
Ugh. Blogspot. Why do you hate me, Gantt?
I would have posted a reply but Blogspot insists on doing a DNA test or it’s near equivalent so I’ll use crusaderrabbit as my vector.
Great work. If we keep up the pressure we force mistakes. Time to give the left as many grey hairs and sleepless nights as they’ve given us.
Excellent letter Gantt,a couple of minor points-
The San Bernardino Dou did not successfully modify the one AR into a full auto weapon,doing so isn’t easy,despite the media claims and the risk of a catastrophic malfunction is high.
The other would have been to add the rebuttal to the constant “guns would be banned if not for the NRA lobbyists”.It’s not the 5 million or so NRA members and their lobbyists that have fought back the left’s attacks on the 2A,it’s the estimated 80+ million lawful gun owners in the US that does it.
Sorry Wombat – for some reason I couldn’t create ganttguy.wordpress.com and didn’t want to post the letter here as I’ve posted links to it on several FB pages, plus Twitter, and didn’t want the trolls turning up here making a mess.
I don’t propose using that site for anything other than posts of this type.
Nice letter. It’ll never get published as it contradicts “the narrative”.
Is Ganttguy.blogspott going to be a regular feature?
Thanks for all the kind comments, guys. I knew you all would get it, seeing as you’re all Constitutional scholars far more educated than the average college grad.
Great letter, Gantt!

Steyn attends a Trump rally in socialist territory. It’s a lengthy write-up but well worth the read. It captures something of the mood of the American people that our sterile, anti-Trump news services never will.
I’m in a red state,but he held a rally near here the other day.A friend of mine went,it was in a sports arena,designed to hold about 25,000 people comfortably.
It was packed to the fire limit,people were outside in mass,almost as many as inside.They set up Big screen TV’s so they could watch too.Trump was absolutely hilarious and just like talking to somebody around the water cooler at work,none of the scripted,robotized talking points that frame most candidates.
In the end everybody left smiling and happy and generally relaxed.So I would say from my friend’s account that that of Steyn we are dealing with the genuine article.Regarding his campaign staff,he hardly has any,even though he is the frontrunner and even though he is everywhere in every market.I see this as a welcome sign of what a Trump presidency might be like.Minimalist and effective,being in business he only has need of people that are useful and all deadwood and redundancy must go.
