This Is What I Think.

by me, Kerry Burgess, 10/19/2024 3:44 PM

NOW I know 'why' "Mr. Tickle", as I described recently in other blog-posts here by me

AND I jumped onto it with both feet

Worked only because of my personal choice

Well, it would have still worked

But somehow, this stuff working on my brain - that is unexplainable - causes me to walk into stuff like that, with the personal choices I make

Also

"Over there", those guys are always pointing at The Straw Man "over there"

"Go get 'em, they're over here" he seems to say

And

Well, no president is an island. And Kamala Harris seems to prove that with her choice, equivalent in many regards to that lameoid JD Vance

No president is an island and she proves that she has to work with other people, people who probably pushed him towards her

People such as Donald Trump and Bill Clinton and George W. Bush got pushed in the national spotlight because there are people lurking in the shadows knowing their unconscionable secrets and that are used to extort them into capitulation

They're easy to manipulate

Give them a taste of power and then manipulate them into making choices that people lurking in the shadows want them to make

Just like Elon Musk and those other lottery winners with no real talent, they're puppets, they say whatever they're told to say, by people you didn't elect. They're not there for merit.

40th President of the United States: 1981 ? 1989

The President's News Conference

October 01, 1981

Saudi Arabia and Iran

Q. Mr. President, you said a few minutes ago that you would not allow, you would not permit what happened in Iran several years ago to happen in Saudi Arabia. How would you prevent that? Would you take military intervention if that was necessary to prevent it?

The President. I'm not going to talk about the specifics of how we would do it, except to say that in Iran, I think the United States has to take some responsibility for what happened there with some very shortsighted policies that let a situation come to a boiling point, that there was no need to do that.

But in Saudi Arabia, I just would call to your attention that it's not only the United States, it's the whole Western World. There is no way, as long as Saudi Arabia and the OPEC nations there in the East and Saudi Arabia's the most important provide the bulk of the energy that is needed to turn the wheels of industry in the Western World, there's no way that we could stand by and see that taken over by anyone that would shut off that oil.

The New York Times

Tim Walz Said He Was in Hong Kong in 1989 During Tiananmen. Not True.

Mr. Walz taught at a high school in China as part of a program sending American teachers abroad, but he did not actually travel to the country until August 1989.

By Danny Hakim and Amy Qin

Oct. 1, 2024

Repeatedly over the years, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota has said that the year he spent teaching in China began with a trip to Hong Kong during the pro-democracy protests in the spring of 1989 that culminated in the deadly crackdown that June in Tiananmen Square in Beijing.

As recently as February, Mr. Walz said on a podcast that he had been in Hong Kong, then a British colony, “on June 4 when Tiananmen happened,” and decided to cross into mainland China to take up his teaching duties even though many people were urging him not to.

Mr. Walz had told the same story a decade earlier, at a congressional hearing, when he testified that he “was in Hong Kong in May 1989,” adding, “As the events were unfolding, several of us went in. I still remember the train station in Hong Kong.”

But it was not true. Mr. Walz, the Democratic vice-presidential nominee, indeed taught at a high school in China as part of a program sending American teachers abroad, but he did not actually travel to the country until August 1989.

Contemporaneous news reports in Nebraska indicated that Mr. Walz was still in his home state during the spring and did not leave for China until August. And his campaign said on Tuesday that it did not dispute those accounts.

43rd President of the United States: 2001 ‐ 2009

Remarks in Sioux City, Iowa August 14, 2004

George W. Bush: Now - and now, almost 2 years after he voted for the war in Iraq and about 220 days after switching positions to declare himself the antiwar candidate, my opponent has found a new nuance. [Laughter] He now agrees it was the right decision to go into Iraq. See, after months of questioning my motives and my credibility, the Senator from Massachusetts now agrees with me that even though we have not found the stockpile of weapons we all believed were there, knowing everything we know today, he would have voted to go into Iraq and remove Saddam Hussein from power. And I want to thank Senator Kerry for clearing that up. [Laughter] Although, I caution you, there are still 80 days left where he could change his mind again.

I'm running because I know we must continue to work with friends and allies around the world to aggressively pursue the terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan and elsewhere. See, you can't talk sense to these people. You cannot negotiate with them. In this post-9/11 world, we cannot simply hope for the best. We must aggressively pursue them and defeat them in foreign lands so we do not have to face them here at home.









{deserter-in-chief} GEORGE W. BUSH

43rd President of the United States: 2001 ‐ 2009

Remarks in Sioux City, Iowa August 14, 2004

Audience members. Boo-o-o!

The President. You might remember his initial explanation. He said, "I actually did vote for the $87 billion, before I voted against it." [Laughter] That doesn't sound like the way people in Sioux land talk. The pressure got on a little bit about that vote. Then he said, well, he's proud of the vote, and he went on to say the whole thing is a complicated matter. [Laughter] There's nothing complicated about supporting our troops in combat.

August 1926

From Wikipedia

August 8, 1926

Former French Prime Minister Georges Clemenceau weighed in on the Mellon–Berenger Agreement by publishing an open letter addressed to U.S. President Calvin Coolidge. Excerpts from the letter read, "You are claiming from us payment not of a debt of commerce but of war. You know, as we do, that our treasury is empty ... We are debtors, you are creditors. It seems this is regarded as purely a matter for the cashier's department, but are there no other considerations to be taken into account? ... Come to our villages and read the endless list of their dead and make comparisons, if you will. Was this not a 'bank account?' The loss of this vital force of youth? ... How is it we failed to foresee what is now happening? Why did we not halt under the shells and convoke a board meeting of profiteers to decide the question whether it would allow us to continue in defense of the finest conquest in the finest of histories?"
