The Unwell




Back in the 1960’s, there was a popular television show, Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C.  I centered on a hick-like, goof soldier whose good heart and honesty helped him and his platoon through most of their Marine Corps base adventures.



Gomer’s astonishment always shone through when he simplistically voiced, “I’m lucky, lucky, lucky!”



Those words usually were usually uttered when he and his barracks mates got KP duty for some sort of punishment.  Of course, his Corps brethren would have strangled him if it wasn’t a comedy, family show.



But it was Gomer Pyle of whom I thought when I read the latest plot by smarmy Democrats to alter the future of America and its free elections.



You see, for two years, Democrats were trying to nurse their 2016 election wounds by attempting to paint and furnish a cell for the duly-elected president, Donald J. Trump.  To get him into that cell, Adam Schiff, Congresswienie, Maxine Waters, Congresskook, and Nancy Pelosi, Congresshag, have been actively trying to get President Trump impeached. 



Of course, impeachment doesn’t mean prison – it only means a good talking to, and a scowl and finger wag from the Democratic leaders seeking impeachment.  Prison would be appropriate when and if a crime was discovered.  And so, a fellow named Robert Mueller, III, was hired to search for a crime.



And search he did.  Bob, spent over $25,000,000, and two valuable years, investigating whether President Trump colluded with the Russians.  Unfortunately, collusion is not a crime.  Still, for two years, Democrat knives were sharpened in anticipation of the discovery of something truly nefarious.



None was discovered, though.  So, the Dems are now calling for something more creative to ruin America.  Lucky, lucky, lucky!



A March 24th 2019, byline from the Washington Compost, er, Washington Post, headlined “Trump could be shut out of some states’ ballots in 2020,” caught my eye.



Un-president Hillary Clinton 
This story explains that 18-states are considering legislation “that would require presidential and vice presidential candidates to  post their tax returns to appear on the ballot during a primary or general election, according to data from the National Conference of Sate Legislatures.”



Some of those states include Washington, California, Hawaii, and New Jersey.  Other states have tried to pass similar legislation, but have failed because of Republican control in those places such as Mississippi, New Mexico, and New Hampshire.



This would mean President Trump would be precluded from seeking re-election unless and until he releases his tax returns.



I recall when Barack Hussein Obama ran for president and curiously absent were his birth certificate, college grades, critical writings from school, pictures and any guest list from his wedding, and visa for his grandmother.



When asked about these items, America’s inquisitive populace was descried as racist and bigoted.  And while that was patently untrue, people stopped asking out of fear and for civility’s sake.



President Trump could simply tell America that his tax return information was submitted to Hillary Clinton during the election debates in 2016.  The only reason they’re not available is because she destroyed them from her illegal e-mail server.  Wink, wink.



It’s time to begin the immediate removal of sore losers on the Democratic side of the country once and for all.  They are very tiring.  Seeya!
