Remembering the 1984 Republican National Convention
EVERY PICTURE TELLS A STORY:
REMEMBERING THE 1984 REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION
It’s hard for me to believe this photograph was taken exactly 40 years ago. Here’s a pic of me outside the Dallas Loews Anatole Hotel, a short time after the presidential limo pulled up and dropped off Ronald Reagan. He made a speech inside the atrium to a packed audience of supporters.
Read MoreDivine Intervention?
Social media is polluted with all kinds of gibberish right now in the aftermath of the shooting.
Donald Trump is being hailed a divine leader by millions of followers. Many elected Republicans are also embracing the God theory. Some say the failed assassination attempt proves he’s protected by higher power. Many Republicans, MAGA-maniacs, and evangelicals believe God intervened and altered the trajectory of a deadly bullet, which missed the former president’s head by millimeters. Trump’s guardian angel made the save! It was a miracle! (* see footnote below)
Divine intervention? A miracle? Really?
Read MoreNo, I Will Not “Tone It Down”
I’ve waited a couple of days since the attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump before making any public comments. First, I wanted to learn more, which is kinda’ important before leaping to conclusions. Next, I hoped to ponder the facts as they’re known before sharing my public opinion based on incomplete information, or worse, spreading outright falsehoods.

Read MoreFireworks for Commies
President Xi Jinping and the Chinese Communist Party wish to thank all those moronic American “patriots” who will blow a whopping $800 MILLION this year buying and then shooting off CHINESE-MADE fireworks.
More than 90 percent of all fireworks purchased by Americans are MADE IN CHINA.
So, blast away, flag wavers! Show your love for Chin…..err, ahh, ‘Murica.
Go ahead. Frighten your pets. Terrorize wildlife. Risk starting fires and burning down your neighbor’s house. Disturb the whole neighborhood. Especially at 1:30 am. Do it — be a childish selfish prick.
Visit that fireworks stand made out of plywood scraps in the strip mall parking lot run by the meth-addicted ex-con. Reach deep into your pockets. Look at all those illegal noise blasters and fire hazards! Buy! Buy! Buy!
Then, ship that money overseas! China thanks you.
