Doctor No. 2: No Way

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

So we went to see this other doctor about preparing for and scheduling a hip replacement; and the upshot of it is, we don’t want to see him anymore. He can take his slimy fast talk somewhere else.

Oh, he’ll do the operation, all right–as long as the patient is as healthy as a horse and very unlikely to die on him. But if he were to do mine, I would have to go through a whole carnival of medical procedures by another big top full of doctors. So if anything does go wrong with this 76-year-old patient, chances are good that it’ll be on some other doctor’s watch.

(“No, you can only have this surgery if you’re otherwise in perfect health.”)

I don’t want to die. And I certainly don’t want to be in agony from a broken hip for the rest of my life.

I want to live. Just to spite him.

Democrat Los Angeles City Councilman Charged with Corruption for Embezzling $800,000

(“Politics been very, very good to me!”)

A Los Angeles city councilman, Curren Price (apt surname!), has been charged with embezzling $800,000 from the public purse. He’s also facing five charges going back to 2023, when he was elected.

Developers have been paying handsomely for his “yes” vote on their projects.

Mr. Price (“The Price is right!”) may be looking down the barrel of jail time…. but we shall see.

SC Gubernatorial Candidate (Dem)…Arrested in His Underwear

South Carolina’s next governor?

I suppose I can run  one more post before I see the doctor.

Gee, for some reason the Democrats want him to step down.

The candidate, one William McLeod, when confronted by police, referred to himself as “God” and “Superman.” I didn’t know either of them was on the ballot. And Superman seems to have lost his cape.

The arrest occurred in May. The whole incident was recorded by police dash cam footage.

Where do Democrats find their candidates?

Somewhere a village is missing its idiot.

THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING PREMIER: UK’s Starmer Stumbles to His LOWEST Popularity Levels Ever, With 68% Disapproval of His Government and Only 13% Support

Thirteen percent–yes, 13%–of British voters say they approve of the job being done by their current premier, Keir Starmer. Thirteen percent. How the devil did this guy ever get elected in the first place? Sheesh. Richard III was more popular than this Labor Party twaddler.

Among Starmer’s more unpopular actions, we find, in his first 400 days, let in 50,000 migrants, freed 26,000 convicted criminals (way what?)… but it would be tiresome to continue.

Will the United Kingdom still be here in 2050? Where are the Britons going to go after they’re pushed out of their homeland… by aggressive Muslims aided and abetted by police forces who act like they were put on this earth to chase the Britons out of Britain. 

Time is running out, Brits. This won’t be the first time you were conquered by an alien nation. But it’s fair to ask, “How many chances do they get?”

UFC Match Set… for the White House?

Is President Trump just trying to drive the Democrats crazy–or is he only indulging in a hobby?

Eccentric as it make seem, I think Trump really wants to do this… just because he’s a fan. We remember him going to the mat against Vince McMahon–whose daughter is now Trump’s secretary of education. Pro wrestling never fears to tread  the borders of the ridiculous.

The match  is set for July 4 of next year–America’s 250th birthday.The president says he expects at least 20,000 people to turn out to see it.

Massachusetts Police Label Conservative Moms a ‘Hate Group’

The Massachusetts Municipal Police Training Committee has labeled “conservative moms” a “hate group,” on a par with Antifa and neo-Nazis. Moms for Liberty is getting ready to go to court.

Change is Coming: Trump to Sign Over 200 Executive Orders Today

[Gateway Pundit keeps giving me this video. I don’t know why.]

One is tempted to sigh and say “Well, that’s Massachusetts”–but why should this state get away with behaving like Rumania in the 1980s? Yo, Massachusetts! Where did you get your ideas on how to manage a police force? North Korea?

All over the Western world, it’s getting bad. Our cops want to lock us up for Thinking Bad Thoughts. How much longer before Britain is reduced to a Muslim colony?

New cops, new leaders, new laws–we’re in need of them.

‘If You Go Down to the Woods Today…’

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

🧸

If you do choose to enjoy a walk in the woods, make sure you’re not doing it in Nova Scotia or New Brunswick. The fine is $28,000 (!?) and change, or else 200 hours of (ahem!) “community service” (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4333920/posts). And no, you won’t stumble into the Teddy Bears’ Picnic.

The draconian penalties for “walking in the woods [sic.]’ are necessary, the, um, authorities say, to reduce the chances of a forest fire.

I wonder if they’ll arrest the teddy bears.

They’ve had some monstrous forest fires in Canada, the past few years. Some of them were set on purpose. There will probably be more.

Oh, Canada!

Giant Ground Sloths on the Loose!

Posted By: leeduigon(patty)Posted On:

Time to flush out my brain!

YouTube abounds with, er, “sightings” of extinct prehistoric animals… among them, the giant ground sloth. Several species of these populated North and South America. We don’t know why they went extinct, but we do know they’re not here anymore. Or do we?

I admit to a lifelong fascination with prehistoric creatures, and I would dearly love some of these goofy YouTube stories to be true. I can’t help reading unproved claims of giant sloths stepping into tar-pits, etc., according to witnesses who can’t possibly be traced. And maybe you wind up wondering, “Gee, was King Kong’s island for real?”

Well, there’s no quality control on the Internet, and anybody who knows how to do it  can put up a post on anything he or she might imagine.

And sometimes you need a little goofiness.

Scary Nooze from Greenland

Buried Lake Erupts Under Greenland’s Ice, Unleashing A Colossal Crater

In case you can’t read the above, “A hidden lake beneath Greenland’s Harder Glacier unexpectedly erupted, unleashing a powerful surge of water that carved a massive crater in the ice…”

It created a crater said to be “the size of a city.” And it’s been doing all sorts of things [drum roll, please] described as “UNEXPECTED.”

Well, we know what happens next, don’t we? They make demands: higher taxes, huge increases in government’s arbitrary power, major restrictions on our basic freedoms (especially freedom of speech, we don’t want that going on), etc., etc.

Y’know, they could look at the fossils and find out there used to be all kinds of amphibians in Greenland–and therefore no glaciers.

And then they would think of some way to use that against us.

Democrat Strategy: So Simple!

1,100+ San Antonio Alamo Stock Photos, Pictures & Royalty ...

Is the Alamo still in Texas?

I don’t think we appreciate, yet, the subtle brilliance shown by Texas Democrats in absconding from the state before a vote can be taken on a current redistricting bill. It really is quite clever! “Heads we win, tails you lose.”

Now, if they find themselves in the minority in any issue before the Texas legislature, they can simply run away–and presto, no quorum. No vote. They can always come back to vote on bills that they like. For all practical purposes, they are always running the show, always in charge, no matter which party won the last election. It’s only the public that gets disenfranchised. The party they actually voted for will never have a quorum.

“We’re the defenders of democracy!”

Anybody got a barf bag?
