Dear Friends, There’s one sure truth about “the Revolution.”It ushers in violence upheaval and diminution,A menacing mess,A red stained dress,And sanity is a counterrevolutionary solution. When government is an ivory tower,Then human relations begin to sour,The arrogant few,But what’s new,The … Continue reading →

How the Administrative State Is Fueling Public Anger in the West

Posted on November 16, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the longer a person or people hold anger in, the greater the explosion when it emerges. People aren’t sane when they are angry. Neither you nor I are rational when in a state of … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, The press has become a pig sty,Now they’re caught in another lie,Uninformed,Misinformed,And obtuse when they think they’re sly. The central planners look out for us,That’s why they often hit us with a bus,It’s a profit driver,A good conniver,Then … Continue reading →

Minions Make The Executive

Posted on November 12, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, no matter how great an executive is, if he is surrounded by half-wits, clingers, and traitors… he will fail, and fail miserably. This will happen no matter how hard-working, adept, or patriotic he may … Continue reading →

Dear Friends, Our philosopher kings are brilliant and wise,Their genius is apparent in their own eyes,How could we disagree,The unaccountable see,Utopia depends on their manipulations and lies. The stupidity of our elites is astonishing,Though too big to tolerate admonishing,A bomb … Continue reading →

Double Standards Destabilize

Posted on November 2, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the extraordinary double standard we accept without a thought is destabilizing our society. Apparently, members of Trump’s cabinet have to live on military bases because of the overt threats and attempts on their lives. … Continue reading →

Truth And Absurdity

Posted on October 31, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, there are things that are true and things we want to be true, and we often believe those things we want to be true. We are all guilty of this. When I was a … Continue reading →

More Laws

Posted on October 26, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, the more laws, the greater the imbalance of power between the people and the elites. Even as fewer laws lower that imbalance. Once the imbalance crosses an invisible line, we call it “despotism” or … Continue reading →

Dear friends, Look closely and you will see,Some things don’t get scrutiny,Incidents are ample,As in the example,Of the Jan 6th pipe bomber in DC. The elite have egos great,Too sage to leave it to fate,Plotting and conniving,Their foes criticizing,And plowing … Continue reading →

On Trusting The Untrustworthy

Posted on October 24, 2025 by john

Dear Friends, It seems to me, in personal as well as international relations, it’s best not to sign agreements you know the other side won’t live up to. If you’re selling someone a car on credit, and they clearly have … Continue reading →
