As you can see, I am back from Athens.

So much for gun control and liberal logic.
This was sent by a friend, former tennis player and current memo reader who left America for another land. (See 1 below.)

Presidential material? (See 2 below.)

This from a dear friend, fellow memo reader and a man who served our nation admirably and rose to generalship. (See 3 below.)
In just a few days several things have occurred that I feel I need to comment on.
First I have rethought the fact that Hillarious did not break any laws when in fact I have listened to those who think otherwise and make the point that she misled Congress and was not forthcoming with information and thus employed techniques and delays that were unlawful. You decide
Second, Obama has a new Chief of Staff - a Marine - and he has obviously advised we take a different tack than his weak and pathetic predecessor who was more an apologist and a go along advisor. Thus, the White House is supposedly going to get more aggressive with air attack targets and might put more troops on the ground.
Time will tell whether Obama is going to stand up to Putin or simply vacate the Middle East.
I was not comforted by the fact that we are accepting an invitation from Putin to attend a meeting about Syria and will be attending with Iran.
I doubt Obama will do much to change course but time will tell.
Third, Russian subs are now threatening ocean floor cables. In the event of an outbreak of hostilities breaking cables could be disruptive to the conduct of commerce and our ability to communicate with allies etc. We are vulnerable.
Also, China began to seed patches in The China Sea starting in 2012. We did nothing. They now have some 10 or so such "islands" they have militarized . Their actions have gone unchallenged and are illegal . Yesterday, we sailed a destroyer 12 miles from one of the islands. This was supposed to send a signal but by staying 12 miles out we basically sent a signal we respect China's unlawful behaviour and pretty much indicated we respect and sanctioned their territorial sanctity.
Fourth, Obama went to Chicago today and met with police from all over the country. His actions and commentary helped create a serious challenge to police enforcement and now he said we have to solve the problem he helped cause.
The best solution is for the police to stop serving those who do not want their presence.
The head of the FBI, Comey, told it like it was and no doubt forced Obama's hand to respond.
Any fool understands police are under siege and are acting accordingly by being reticent. But Obama plays us for the fools we are. After all he was elected a second time.
Fifth, as I noted in a previous memo, the Attorney General could not find any laws broken by the IRS and what Lois Lerner allegedly did was really done by renegade "smidgens" in Cincinnati.
I cite these events because the pattern of disregarding the law, lying and protecting the perpetrators continues along with continued projection of weakness.
I am posting a few e mails I received while away. (See 4, 4a and 4b below.)

1)Problem With My S W .357
Today I Placed my S &; W .357 revolver on the table right next to my front door. I left 6 cartridges beside it, then left it alone and went about my business.
While I was gone, the mailman delivered my mail, the neighbor's son across the street mowed the yard, a girl walked her dog down the street, and quite a few cars stopped at the "stop" sign near the front of my house.
Well you can imagine my surprise, with all the hype by the Left and the media about how dangerous guns are and How They kill people. Either the media is wrong or I'm in possession of the laziest gun in the world.After about an hour, I checked on the gun. It was quietly sitting there, right where I had left it. It had not moved itself outside. It had not killed anyone Certainly, even with the Numerous opportunities it had presented to do that. In fact, it had not even loaded itself.
The United States is 3rd in Murders Throughout The World. But if you take out just 5 'left-wing' cities: Chicago, Detroit, Washington DC, St Louis and New Orleans -- the United States is 4th from the bottom, in the ENTIRE World, for Murders.
These 5 Cities are controlled by Democrats. They also have The Toughest Gun Control Laws in the USA.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------It would be absurd to draw any conclusions from this data, right?
Well, I'm off to check on my spoons. I hear they 're making people fat.

Clinton’s Accidental Transparency
Let down by her overconfidence that the homebrew server would remain secret.
No wonder Hillary Clinton feels aggrieved by her congressional grilling on Benghazi. She had the hard luck to be secretary of state in the Internet era, when digital secrets escape despite the best efforts to keep them hidden. Unintended transparency is better than none.
In an earlier era, the American public would never have learned Mrs. Clinton knew during the attack that it was a planned operation by terrorists and not a spontaneous protest as the administration insisted.
Mrs. Clinton kept her more than 60,000 emails off the State Department’s server. They came to light only because the House Select Committee on Benghazi discovered her secret email system. Those emails—not Mrs. Clinton—were the star witness at last week’s hearing, disclosing with precision who knew what when.
Publicly, Mrs. Clinton issued a statement at 10:32 p.m. Sept. 11, 2012, the evening of the attack, blaming the YouTube video. But the committee disclosed that at 11:12 p.m., she told her daughter, Chelsea, by email: “Two of our officers were killed in Benghazi by an Al Qaeda-like group.” At 11:49 p.m., according to a State Department email, she told the president of Libya: “There is a gun battle ongoing, which I understand Ansar [al] Sharia”—the local al Qaeda affiliate—“is claiming responsibility for.”
The day after the attack, Mrs. Clinton gave two public comments again blaming the video. The White House press secretary declared: “We have no information to suggest that it was a planned attack.”
But the same day, Mrs. Clinton told the Egyptian prime minister by phone: “We know that the attack in Libya had nothing to do with the film. It was a planned attack—not a protest.” In other words, we’re not so naïve as to believe what we’re telling American voters to further the re-election claim that we’ve put “al Qaeda on the run.”
Two weeks later, the administration was still blaming the video. “There is no video that justifies an attack on an embassy,” President Obama told the United Nations General Assembly Sept. 25. “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.” On Sept. 27 federal agents arrested the Egyptian-born Coptic Christian who made the video, supposedly for violating his parole. (Earlier this year, Islamic State terrorists beheaded 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians on a Libyan beach.)
Rep. Jim Jordan (R., Ohio) summed up his view of the administration’s and Mrs. Clinton’s motives: “You can live with a protest about a video. That won’t hurt you. But a terrorist attack will. So you can’t be square with the American people. You tell your family it’s a terrorist attack, but not the American people. You can tell the president of Libya it’s a terrorist attack, but not the American people. And you can tell the Egyptian prime minister it’s a terrorist attack, but you can’t tell your own people the truth.”
The email saga is not over. The facts are coming out only now because it took almost a year for Mrs. Clinton to produce a fraction of the emails from her homebrew server. The FBI is reportedly investigating whether the setup constituted criminal “gross negligence” in handling classified information. Cybersecurity experts say her unprotected emails were almost certainly hacked by the Chinese and Russians. If so, foreign intelligence agencies possess emails the State Department has withheld from Congress, as well as those Mrs. Clinton withheld from the State Department.
This kind of unplanned disclosure through technology rarely happened in the pre-digital era. One exception was the incriminating 18½-minute gap in Richard Nixon’s Oval Office tapes. In recent years, WikiLeaks and routine email hacks by foreign intelligence agents have taught government officials that their communications aren’t secure.
Mrs. Clinton no doubt genuinely regrets her decision to use a private server. Her assumption that her emails were confidential gave her the confidence to be honest in her private communications—and to assume that conflicts between her public and private comments would never be exposed. Government officials are usually more cautious, aware that their communications on required government servers are subject to the public-disclosure laws Mrs. Clinton almost evaded.
As technology allows more information to be recorded, it raises expectations for greater transparency and more disclosure. The Obama administration came to office promising to be the “most transparent” ever, but instead ignores information requests and stonewalls journalists. Thanks to her private emails, Mrs. Clinton managed to shed some light on the truth, though that was the opposite of what she intended.

In Chaos Theory, the butterfly effect is the name given to the sensitive connection between initial conditions in which an insignificant event in one state, nonlinear systems can result in sometimes catastrophic events in the universal state.
In other words, although unlikely, it is possible for a butterfly flapping it's wings in Texas to cause a typhoon in the Japanese Sea.
Case in point: In mid-20th Century America, an 18 year old hippie, college freshman in Honolulu had sex with an older alcoholic Kenyan on a student visa, who had a wife and child back in Africa. And this less than significant event started the collapse and dissolution of the United States of America.

4)"The FBI under J. Edgar Hoover was a fearsome and feared institution. It relentlessly hunted down and killed John Dillinger; it applied tax law violations to put Al Capone in the big house for a long visit.
Not so much anymore.
The Justice Department used the news dump to announce that there would be no charges regarding the IRS discrimination against conservative political organizations. Believe it or not, this deliberate policy action of the IRS, which arguably deprived millions of their constitutional right of self-expression; and quite possibly led to the undeserved re-election of our current President; was simply “mismanagement, poor judgment and organizational inertia.”
Right … like John Dillinger’s bank robberies were just an oversight. He thought he had the money on deposit.
This was a deliberate action, contravening existing IRS practices. Executives of Enron went to jail for less under-handed and destructive actions. The leader of this “mismanagement”, Lois Lerner was permitted to retire with benefits.
I just hope the FBI of yesteryear is the FBI now investigating the treasonous action of Hillary Clinton in exposing our nation’s secrets to the hacker world and our enemies on her personal, unsecured, email server. By the way, in direct contravention of State department policy and classified information treatment and laws.D--- M-----"
4a) "As related to your last email, I have two comments related to 1) Obstruction, and 2) ethnic appeal.
The first victim of any criminal investigation is truth and Its first assailant is the criminal. Thus in my opinion the first priority of the law should be enforcement of laws against perjury and obstruction of justice. I believe Hillary has been so successful at lying and obstructing the Benghazi investigation that she succeeded in exhausting the American public and shifting the focus of the investigation away from truth discovery, identifying mistakes, and recommending corrections. Why have the investigators allowed her to switch the agenda so, instead of, as they should, prosecuting her for perjury and obstruction of justice?
I thought worth reminding you that G--- says Hispanics have no allegiance to Cubans and thus Rubio. You may recall her explanation that Cubans have been the quickest of all immigrants populations to adopt American principles and assimilate into American culture but that the general Hispanic population is devoted to the Democratic Party's principles, read that no enforcement of immigration laws, and retaining their native identity. Thus while I highly favor Rubio as a Republican candidate, I do so without expectation that he would garner much of the Hispanic vote.
Your friend,

4b) "Ever wondered why so many of our military aviators in Vietnam got shot down?
"The Secret War and Other Conflicts"
(Published 2014 by General Pete Piotrowski, ISBN 978-1-4931-6187-4 (Hardcover)
Following is a quote of much interest, from pages 246/247:"Nearly twenty years later, former Secretary of State Dean Rusk being interviewed by Peter Arnett on a CBS documentary called "The Ten Thousand Day War".
Mr Arnett asked, "It has been rumored that the United States provided the North Vietnamese government the names of the targets that would be bombed the following day. Is there any truth to that allegation?"
To everyone's astonishment and absolute disgust, the former Secretary responded, "Yes. We didn't want to harm the North Vietnamese people, so we passed the targets to the Swiss embassy in Washington with instructions to pass them to the NVN government through their embassy in Hanoi." As we watched in horror, Secretary Rusk went on to say, "All we wanted to do is demonstrate to the North Vietnamese leadership that we could strike targets at will, but we didn't want to kill innocent people. By giving the North Vietnamese advanced warning of the targets to be attacked, we thought they would tell the workers to stay home."
No wonder all the targets were so heavily defended day after day! The NVN obviously moved as many guns as they could overnight to better defend each target they knew was going to be attacked. Clearly, many brave American Air Force and Navy fliers died or spent years in NVN prison camps as a direct result of being intentionally betrayed by Secretary Rusk and Secretary McNamara, and perhaps, President Johnson himself.
I cannot think of a more duplicitous and treacherous act of American government officials. Dean Rusk served as Secretary of State from January 21, 1961, through to January 20, 1969, under President John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. Perhaps Senator John McCain, POW for five years and presidential candidate in 2008, was one of the many victims of this utter stupidity and flawed policy flowing from President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Mr. Peter Arnett opined that this would be a treasonous act by anyone else."
