The unthinking and misguided believe Socialism means well and therefore, it is preferable to Capitalism which, to them, implies greed. They need to read Hayek's: "The Road To Serfdom."

I have always maintained Obama campaigned as Wilson's "Music Man" and his presidency was basically fraudulent. With the passage of time, I believe we will learn more and more about him and it will not be flattering.
This will not change the "Obamaite's" opinions because they are too steeped in their commitment to worship the ground he walks on but revelations will begin to cause rumbles beneath that same ground and their devotion will be challenged by facts as they begin surfacing.
Only a few days ago it was revealed more dangerous Iranian radicals, working on Iran's nuclear program, were released during the hostage swap than Obama admitted.
Obama's moth eaten ball of wool will eventually unravel. Lies have a way of seeking daylight.(See 1 below.)

I am amused at how concerned liberals are now that Trump has proposed tax reforms that add to our deficit. Where were they when Obama doubled the debt he inherited?
Spending your money is a life long pursuit of politicians, in general, regardless of party. They never have enough money to solve the problems they create.

We have house guests coming this weekend and then, on Monday, leave for Athens and a GMOA meeting followed by a drive to Pittsburgh to be at Stella's 5th birthday party followed by a few day's vacation. Returning to Savannah on the 12th.
Probably no memos for a few weeks.

1)‘We Faked It!’ – Top Obama Official Stabs Him In The Back With Huge Admission
(Angry Patriot) – Officials from the Obama White House are starting to speak out against the corrupt administration now that it is safe to come forward. It’s about time!
The most recent official to come forward is Steven Koonin, the former Undersecretary of the Department of Energy. He is accusing President Obama of fabricating scientific evidence proving “climate change”
“What you saw coming out of the press releases about climate data, climate analysis, was, I’d say, misleading, sometimes just wrong,” Koonin told the Wall Street Journal.
According to Koonin, multiple departments responsible for environmental science either misrepresented data or completely fabricated results to justify the policies of the Obama administration.
Scientists at NASA and the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) colluded with press officers to create misleading press releases that supported the former president’s agenda.
Koonin isn’t the only Obama-era official claiming wrongdoing by the Obama administration. Retired principle climate scientist Dr. John Bates testified before a House Committee in February claiming that the NOAA was manipulating data.
Dr. Bates claimed that “the Karl study” was politically motivated and not supported by data. “The Karl study” was a report designed to account for the apparent slowing of global temperature growth.
Liberals want to prove that climate change is a real and dangerous phenomenon to justify increased regulation and size of government. Scientists, motivated by politics, have completely abandoned the scientific method to support their personal opinion. And an entire industry has been created around the false notion that the earth is getting warmer.
In 2007 Al Gore predicted that the polar ice caps would have completely melted away by 2013, but instead, since that time, they have grown larger. Climate scientists were forced to change the name of their theory from Global Warming to Climate Change, because the data did not support that the earth was warming. Now it is becoming clear that climate change is also not supported by evidence.
Climate alarmists like Al Gore may have gotten rich, but their claims are simply not supported by any REAL science.
It is becoming increasingly clear that scientists who support climate change are motivated by politics and not by truth. It’s refreshing to finally hear the truth that WE knew all along.

2) We asked several Muslims in Saudi Arabia why they marry their first cousins. All of them told us it's to keep the wealth within the family and that the Prophet allows them to do this. There is one town in Saudi Arabia where there are only TWO last names listed for all its citizens.
This came from a Lockheed employee who has had 3 assignments to Saudi Arabia . Worth the read!
"During the pilot transition program with the KV-107 and C-130 with Lockheed, we found that most Saudi pilot trainees had very limited night vision, even on the brightest of moonlit nights. Their training retention rate was minimal including maintenance personnel.
Some had dim memories and had to be constantly reminded of things that were told to them the day before. An American, British or any other western instructor is burned out pretty quick. It actually took Muslim C-130 pilots years before they could fly in the dark safely and then would be reluctant to leave the lights of a city. Ask any Marine, Air Force or Army guy who’s been trying to train Iraqis, and especially Afghans.
Islam is not only a religion; it's a way of life all the way around. Yet another set of revealing facts about Muslim beliefs and traditions and ways of life 1400 years of inbreeding. I found this to be interesting. Didn't know whether to believe it or not. To research I went to Wikipedia, "Cousin Marriage", and far down in the article "Genetics" it seems there is a lot of truth here. A huge Muslim problem: Inbreeding."
Nikolai Sennels is a Danish psychologist who has done extensive research into a little-known problem in the Muslim world: the disastrous results of Muslim inbreeding brought about by the marriage of first cousins
This practice, which has been prohibited in the Judeo-Christian tradition since the days of Moses, was sanctioned by Muhammad and has been going on now for 50 generations (1,400 years) in the Muslim world. This practice of inbreeding will never go away in the Muslim world, since Muhammad is the ultimate example and authority on all matters, including marriage.
The massive inbreeding in Muslim culture may well have done virtually irreversible damage to the Muslim gene pool, including extensive damage to its intelligence, sanity, and health.
According to Sennels, close to half of all Muslims in the world are inbred. In Pakistan , the numbers approach 70%. Even in England , more than half of Pakistani immigrants are married to their first cousins, and in Denmark the number of inbred Pakistani immigrants is around 40%. The numbers are equally devastating in other important Muslim countries: 67% in Saudi Arabia , 64% in Jordan , and Kuwait , 63% in Sudan , 60% in Iraq , and 54% in the United Arab Emirates and Qatar .
According to the BBC, this Pakistani, Muslim-inspired inbreeding is thought to explain the probability that a British Pakistani family is more than 13 times as likely to have children with recessive genetic disorders. While Pakistanis are responsible for three percent of the births in the UK , they account for 33% of children with genetic birth defects.
The risks of what are called autosomal recessive disorders such as cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy is 18 times higher, and the risk of death due to malformations is 10 times higher. Other negative consequences of inbreeding include a 100 percent increase in the risk of stillbirths and a 50% increase in the possibility that a child will die during labor.
Lowered intellectual capacity is another devastating consequence of Muslim marriage patterns. According to Sennels, research shows that children of consanguineous marriages lose 10-16 points off their IQ and that social abilities develop much slower in inbred babies. The risk of having an IQ lower than 70, the official demarcation for being classified as "retarded," increases by an astonishing 400 percent among children of cousin marriages. (Similar effects were seen in the Paranoiac dynasties in ancient Egypt and in the British royal family, where inbreeding was the norm for a significant period of time.)
In Denmark , non-Western immigrants are more than 300 percent more likely to fail the intelligence test required for entrance into the Danish Army. Sennels says, "The ability to enjoy and produce knowledge and abstract thinking is simply lower in the Islamic world." He points out that the Arab world translates just 330 books every year, about 20% of what Greece alone does.
In the last 1,200 years of Islam, just 100,000 books have been translated into Arabic, about what Spain does in a single year. Seven out of 10 Turks have never even read a book. Sennels points out the difficulties this creates for Muslims seeking to succeed in the West. "A lower IQ, together with a religion that denounces critical thinking, surely makes it harder for many Muslims to have success in our high-tech knowledge societies." Only nine Muslims have ever won the Nobel Prize, and five of those were for the "Peace Prize." According to Nature magazine, Muslim countries produce just 10 percent of the world average when it comes to scientific research measured by articles per million inhabitants.
In Denmark , Sennels' native country, Muslim children are grossly over represented among children with special needs. One-third of the budget for Danish schools is consumed by special education, and anywhere from 51% to 70% of retarded children with physical handicaps
in Copenhagen have an immigrant background. Learning ability is severely affected as well. Studies indicated that 64% of schoolchildren with Arabic parents are still illiterate after 10 years in the Danish school system. The immigrant dropout rate in Danish high schools is twice that of the native-born.
Mental illness is also a product. The closer the blood relative, the higher the risk of schizophrenic illness. The increased risk of insanity may explain why more than 40% of patients in Denmark ’s biggest ward for clinically insane criminals have an immigrant background. The U.S. is not immune. According to Sennels, "One study based on 300,000 Americans shows that the majority of Muslims in the USA have a lower income, are less educated, and have worse jobs than the population as a whole."
Sennels concludes: There is no doubt that the wide spread tradition of first cousin marriages among Muslims has harmed the gene pool among Muslims. Because Muslims' religious beliefs prohibit marrying non-Muslims and thus prevents them from adding fresh genetic material to their population, the genetic damage done to their gene pool since their prophet allowed first cousin marriages 1,400 years ago are most likely massive. This has produced overwhelming direct and indirect human and societal consequences.
Bottom line: Islam is not simply a benign and morally equivalent alternative to the Judeo-Christian tradition. As Sennels points out, the first and biggest victims of Islam are Muslims. Simple Judeo-Christian compassion for Muslims and a common-sense desire to protect Western civilization from the ravages of Islam dictate a vigorous opposition to the spread of this dark and dangerous religion. These stark realities must be taken into account when we establish public polices dealing with immigration from Muslim countries and the building of mosques in the U.S.
Let us hope the civilized West and the North Americans wake up before a blind naiveté about the reality of Islam destroys what remains of our Judeo-Christian culture and our domestic tranquility.
For those who would like to read more on this subject, google Nikolai Sennels. There are other academics who have done similar research and have arrived at similar conclusions.

3)Lessons Unlearned From the '92 LA Riots
3)Lessons Unlearned From the '92 LA Riots
By Star Parker
This weekend marks 100 days of the Trump administration. This milestone also coincides with a very important anniversary. Twenty-five years ago, April 29, 1992, riots exploded in Los Angeles after four policemen were acquitted after being charged with the violent beating of Rodney King, caught on video for the entire nation to see.
According to The Los Angeles Times, 63 lives were lost in the riots, with the estimated total economic cost pegged at $1 billion, with $735 million in property damage and 1,550 buildings destroyed or damaged.
But this is more than a fact of national history for me. It is personal history. I was there.
After years on welfare, I had turned my life around after my Christian conversion. I left behind the nihilism and emptiness of the welfare state culture and became an entrepreneur and publisher.
My monthly magazine was sustained by advertising. But my operation and my customers were in South Central Los Angeles, where the riots occurred. I lost everything.
It was then, in one of life's moments of starting over, that I felt I must broaden my platform and engage and speak more publically about what I had come to realize personally. That life must be defined by faith and personal responsibility.
I saw this as the only hope for black America.
What has happened in black attitudes since that explosion of despair and violence in 1992? Despite trillions of dollars in spending targeted to help these communities and a black man being elected twice as president of the United States, prevailing attitudes among blacks in America seem to continue to change for the worse.
Remember those words of Barack Obama when he debuted on the national stage, giving the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in 2004?
"There is not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there's the United States of America."
It sounds so nice but, unfortunately, polls indicate that, even today, this does reflect what most blacks think. Blacks have decidedly different views than whites regarding identification with the founding principles of this country and their place in it.
In 2009 when Obama was elected, 72 percent of blacks, per Gallup, said, "racism against blacks is widespread in the U.S." In 2016, this was up to 82 percent.
Sixty-five percent of blacks, compared with 32 percent of whites, say that "government should do more," and 29 percent of blacks, compared with 62 percent of whites, say that "government is doing too much."
And, again according to Gallup, "Fifty-eight percent of whites have confidence in the police, compared with 29 percent of blacks."
In a new poll by Pew Research, 32 percent of blacks compared with 53 percent of whites, think that the Supreme Court should base its rulings according to "what the U.S. Constitution meant when it was originally written."
It could not have been clearer to me back in 1992 that the flailing violence that destroyed Los Angeles would lead nowhere for blacks. It is equally clear to me today that the attitude among blacks that their futures lie with the responsibility and money of others will continue to lead nowhere.
Despite a complicated and hard history, blacks need to trash the cynicism they harbor against this great nation, founded on the principles of freedom — a cynicism for which they are paying the greatest price. Only by embracing the principles of freedom and self-government can black Americans truly define a new path and participate in the American dream.
We all should look to the words of Abraham Lincoln in his second inaugural, "With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds..."
