Super Tuesday results

SUPER TUESDAY STATES WINSSupporters of Donald Trump should be very happy this Wednesday, following Super Tuesday.

SUPER TUESDAY 3-1-2016 RESULTS11 states were up for bid on Super Tuesday, to include Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont and Virginia.

Cruz took Texas — if he hadn’t done that his campaign would have been ended — as well as Oklahoma and Alaska. Marco Rubio won Minnesota.  Kasich and Carson won nothing.

Trump won in Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Virginia, Arkansas, Massachusetts and Vermont. It’s interesting to note seeing Chris Christie standing behind Trump on the national news.

Also interesting is that Mike Huckabee was clearly behind Trump this morning on Fox and Friends, saying that the Republicans need to begin to rally around Trump, and that it is now a ridiculous meme about David Duke, as Trump spent the entire weekend disavowing Duke.

SUPER TUESDAY 3-1-2016 DEMORAT RESULTS

TOTAL DELEGATE COUNT TO DATE (of 1,237):

  • Trump 285
  • Cruz 161
  • Rubio 87
  • Kasich 25
  • Carson 8

On the Demorat side, Hillary Clinton squished Bernie Sanders, winning 7 states to 4 for Sanders.

Kasich and Carson need to get out and throw some delegates to candidates who can win.  Even if Kasich wins Ohio, what will that do?  What happens if Rubio doesn’t even win Florida?  What will Jeb Bush do?  Who will he endorse?

And what happens when those Republicans who swear not to vote for Trump fail to appear at the polls?

Mississippi and Michigan hold their primaries next Tuesday the 8th, and Ohio’s is on March 15th.

Here’s what Trump needs to do: stop running down Cruz and Rubio.  Focus like a laser beam on Hillary Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama.

And here is what conservatives find ever-maddening: the GOP still DOES NOT UNDERSTAND HOW and WHY Donald Trump resonates.

P.S.

Chris Christie’s perplexed expressions standing behind Trump were priceless and led to some hilarious Tweets.

Norway & Sweden to collapse under migrants?

Sweden BurningI already wrote about Norway here, when that nation decided to disarm its law enforcement officers recently.  The decision couldn’t have been made at a worse time.

It turns out that Norway — and Sweden too — is more concerned with being besieged by immigrants than it let on, purposely hiding various inconvenient facts from its lawful citizens.

First, from ZeroHedge.com:

Norway Warns Sweden Will Collapse, PM Will Defy Geneva Convention To Protect Border

by Tyler Durden

We’ve spent quite a bit of time documenting the country’s trials and travails over the course of the last 12 months during which time Sweden has taken on more than 160,000 asylum seekers.

Let’s stop for a moment to examine some facts.  The third largest in Europe, Sweden is a country of 174,000 square miles, about the size of California, with a population of almost 10 million.  In contrast, California has a population of 39 million, and New York City has a population of 8.5 million people.  Sweden has a population density of 54 inhabitants per square mile.  The illegal invader increase to Sweden is about 1.6%.

Last month, on the heels of reports from Germany that men of “Arab and North African” origin assaulted women in central Cologne during New Year’s Eve celebrations, Swedish media alleged that police orchestrated a massive coverup designed to keep a string of similar attacks that allegedly occurred at a youth festival in Stockholm’s Kungsträdgården last August from seeing the light of day.

Meanwhile, a 22-year-old refugee center worker was stabbed to death by a Somali migrant at a shelter for asylum seekers and at the Stockholm train station, “gangs” of Moroccan migrant children reportedly spend their days attacking security personnel and accosting women.

What commonality is being tacitly unmentioned?  Yes, the fact that these are all Muslims involved.

At the risk of gleeful schadenfreude (for obvious Obama-instigated reasons), I submit that what is written next was completely foreseeable — and indeed I have been writing about it for years now — as Islam brings with its staunch adherents aspects that are entirely unworkable in civilized Western cultures.

Sweden plans to deport some 80,000 of the refugees this year but according to Norwegian PM Erna Solberg, it may be too little too late to keep the country from collapsing. So concerned is Solberg that she’s now crafted an emergency law that will allow Norway to refuse asylum seekers at the border in the event “it all breaks down” in Sweden.

This borders on heresy for Europeans GOWPs — Guilty Overeducated White Persons.

Here’s how the proposal is being presented by the anti-immigration Swedish online magazine Fria Tider: “Norway is now preparing to denounce the Geneva Convention and to secure the border with Sweden by force – without letting people apply for asylum.”

Is this overstated, or is the foundering of Europe truly possible?

Yes, “worst case scenarios,” like what Sweden’s Foreign Minister Margot Wallström described last October when she said “most people feel that we cannot maintain a system where perhaps 190,000 people will arrive every year – in the long run, our system will collapse.” 

Collapse.  Not unlike the Cloward-Piven Strategy, defined as:

The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

Yes, the situation is that serious.  Yes, European countries are that stressed.  Yes, they could collapse and implode.

And with that, guess what?

Yes.  Mr Obama has already accepted roughly 10,000 Syrian and related refugees and buried them around the nation.  Ask Texas if they’ve seen Syrian refugees.  But wait; Mr Obama wants the US to accept another 100,000 in order to accept its “fair share.”

From the WashingtonExaminer.com:

White House wants increase of Syrian refugees

by Paul Bedard

The White House is quietly pushing for an increase in refugees from Syria, despite new concerns raised by state and county officials that federal help is often missing when they arrive.

President Obama’s assistant for immigration policy told a task force set up by the National Association of Counties that the U.S. is eyeing a bigger role to help alleviate the growing crisis.

Because that is working out so well for Europe.

Syrian Refugees to USHere are where the immigrants are aimed in each state.

In the meantime, on our southern border, a new wave of immigrant flooding is set to begin.

To even entertain the importation of more useless immigrants is staggeringly insane.

Oscars: not enuf gangsta

Chris Rock hosted the 88th Oscars this year, and made the entire show about melanin.  Black black black black black black, black, black black, black and black.

Blacks are 12.6% of the US population.  70% of NFL players and 75% of NBA players are black.  Then there’s this:

According to the findings of an AP analysis, ABC, NBC, and Fox have a higher percentage of African-Americans in prime time than the percentage of Blacks in the country’s population. The U.S. Census puts the percentage of Blacks in the population at 13.2. African-Americans accounted for 15% of the cast members on ABC and NBC fall shows.

But let’s not let the facts get in the way of a good black tantrum, shall we?  Because you sure as hell won’t hear or read of this on either the Oscars or trotted out on the front page of newspapers or in the MSM.

Chris Rock ensured that he threw as many barbs as possible to those persons whose skin wasn’t as dark as his.  Leonardo DiCaprio was made the butt of an early joke.  The liberal, Leftist Leonardo DiCaprio was not amused.  Not a whit.

After the first half hour, there were more jokes by Rock with Caucasoids as the butt.

The auditorium did not erupt into spontaneous rolling floods of massive cheers, shouts, uproarious laughter and huzzahs.  In fact, many of the so-called “jokes” by both blacks and GOWP Caucasoids fell primarily quite flat.

Rock and his ilk seem to think that blacks are the center of the universe, completely ignoring the Asians, Indians, Namibians, Mexicans, gays and transgenders in front of the camera and behind.

Basically what happened is this: Hollywood GOWPs tacitly agreed to “take it on the chin” for Political Correctness and mostly shut the fuck up whilst sitting in the audience.  Good for them.  Be good little overpaid cowards.  Good times.

This year’s Oscars were an excuse for racism, Political Correctness, personal and general belittling, as well as verbal filth and cultural devolution.

Overall, Chris Rock ensured the 88th Oscars were mostly a classless event.  “Harvey Weinstein, kiss my ass.” High art, that.

And if Rock thought that going to a Compton theater for the opinions of blacks provided a necessary insight then yes, it was an insight — into the cultural and historic ignorance of blacks themselves.  Nice job Rock.  You proved that the blacks you interviewed were insular, racist, unable to expand their personal scopes beyond the hood.

The ratings plummeted for that reason.  In fact, the ratings were at an 8-year low.

It breaks my heart to see Hollywood Leftists hoisted and gored on the spears they so love to use on everyone else.

I almost forgot

RL & JS Alley, About 1925, 5509 Holmes St., KC., MO.0

My father (L) and his brother Jim, in front of their house at 5509 Holmes Street,   Kansas City, Missouri, in 1925.

5509 Holmes Street Today, KC, MO

5509 Holmes Street today (R), same sidewalk in foreground.  You can see the two-story house, upper left, is the same as the one above.

And that concerns me.

I wrote this post late Thursday night of the 11th, in anticipation of posting it this past weekend because, almost before that day had passed, I realized what I’d not done.  Because of the stream of news and events, I’ve waited to post it until now, Sunday.

I’d not remembered that was the day my father passed away in 2009, seven years ago.  My God, seven years ago.  In a way it seems like yesterday; in another, it seems like a vast, chasmic distance in the past.

Today my father, had he lived, would be 95 years old.  As it was, he lived to 88.  He once told me that all he wanted to do was live longer than his father, who passed away in the front yard of his house in Dallas at the age of 83.  His father served in World War I, having been born in 1895.

VR Alley, 1917.0Above is a photograph of my father’s dad, Verto Alley, who was a bugler and served overseas in Germany and France.  Verto was born in 1895, in Minnesota. Though I met him about three times, I remember little if anything about my grandfather because I was young, and because my grandparents on my father’s side lived so far away.  I’m pretty sure I factored not at all into his life either.

Thru War

As you can see, my grandfather Verto carried this photo of his wife Katy throughout his assignments in World War I.

On the other hand, Dad’s mother, Katherine, was born in 1899 in Missouri and liked me.  Those same three times I may have encountered my grandmother, I only remember good things about her.  I can remember being in the back seat of our 1958 Oldsmobile 88 with grandma.  I’d just had a haircut.  Dad always cut my hair with the Wahl electric clippers that I have to this day; he would do it with me perched on the yellow stool perched in the middle of the kitchen on the linoleum floor.

1958 Olds 88 BlueGrandma was in the back seat of the Olds with me.  She leaned over, scrappled my short hair and called me her “towhead.”  Then she kissed me on top of my head.

Dad, Sepia, Open Cockpit, Standing-A Dad, Standing, Propeller-AThe above photographs are my father in primary flight school, where he learned that the US Army Air Corps considered him to be, after evaluation, bomber material.  Dad wanted to be a fighter pilot — who didn’t? — but the USAAC said he was a “team player” kind of guy, not a lone wolf.  To multi-engine planes he went and the B-17.

Mom & Dad WWII Photo B&WAfter surviving his missions, Dad came back and the married my mother on April 24th of 1942.  In its infinite wisdom the US decided to make Dad a B-25 instructor.  Go figure.  Above is a photo of my mother and father a short time after their marriage in Reno, Nevada.  Below is my father seated in a B-25 Mitchell.

Dad In Cockpit, Pilot Seat-ABelow, Captain Dad poses with his friend Joel Kuykendahl, while assigned as flight instructors at Roswell Army Air Field (AAF).

Dad, Sepia, Capt, Roswell Flt Inst, With Joel Kuykendahl-A I reminisced about Dad recently with my wife and her sister, when she came to visit for the past three weeks as I recuperated from foot surgery.

To this day I miss Dad terribly.

EU on the brink of migration collapse

Syrian Refugees In Greece, Port of Lesbos

Syrian refugees, Port of Lesbos, Greece.

The EU, European Union, is on the brink of total collapse and chaos.

So says the migration commissioner.

From YahooNews.com:

Ten days to save EU migration system: commissioner

Brussels (AFP) – The EU has until a March 7 summit with Turkey to curb the number of migrants coming to Europe or else the bloc’s migration system might “completely break down”, migration commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos said Thursday.

“In the next 10 days, we need tangible and clear results on the ground. Otherwise there is a risk that the whole system will completely break down,” Avramopoulos told a press conference after interior ministers dealing with the crisis met in Brussels.

Syrian Refugee Migration SURGE MAPBut who will listen?

Will the GOWPs of the EU listen?

Is UK Prime Minister David Cameron listening?  He thinks Britain needs very much to remain in the EU.

At odds with Cameron is Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London — who thinks a Brexit is just what the doctor ordered.

The migration crisis is just one aspect of the UK’s problems, but it’s not just a United Kingdom problem but a German problem, a Greek problem, an Italian problem and overall a European Union problem.

Advanced, mostly, by Deutschland’s Angela Merkel — who opened her guilty WWII GOWP arms to the flood of Syrians which then, by extension, meant everyone else from North Africa and parts farther.

Ten day, then.  What could happen in ten days?

A breakdown.  A complete and utter breakdown — think Cloward-Piven Strategy — of the western European system on most every level you can imagine.  Fiscal, societal, physical, you name it.

And so when the EU system breaks, what else tends to break?

That’s right, the markets.  EU markets, Japanese markets and of course the US stock market.

Buckle up.
