After a 55 year career as a professional pilot in the military, in law enforcement, in the private sector, and in federal civil service, I am now retired. In many of these positions I repeatedly took an oath to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.

Old School Republicans


I have a number of friends I’ll refer to as old school Republicans. One was once the chair of a state Republican Party, one worked in the administration of a popular Republican president, one is a Republican Elector, and others have worked inside the Republican Party machine for various politicians. They have a problem that is no doubt common with old school Republicans all over America. I think people like Mark Levin, Sean Hannity, and other Republican pundits are part of the old school Republican mind set.

Secrets to America’s Success


"The more people who own little businesses of their own, the safer our country will be, and the better off its cities and towns; for the people who have a stake in their country and their community are its best citizens." ~ John Hancock

Hancock identified one of the most important elements that resulted in the free and prosperous America we came to know and love. All small businesses depended on the quality of the product and the quality of the service in order to prosper. Small businesses had “skin in the game,” an investment in the quality of human relationships. Good service was rewarded by dollars, but dollars were the by-product of good service. The flaw in American and world culture today is that money has become the goal and product and service are only necessary evils.

There Are No Answers in Washington D.C.


There seems to be this crazy fantasy that the answers to America’s current problems lay in Washington D.C. In the last five decades, what would lead anyone to believe that the gangsters of the Beltway Bubble in Washington D.C can solve anything? For most of the last five decades the crooks on the Potomac have tried to convince Americans that anything can be fixed if you throw enough money at it. Well, America, how’s that working out for you?

The Only Performance Review That Matters


Before the United States of America was the United States of America the Founding Fathers had one serious concern in common. They knew that honesty, moral values, and virtue were required elements for all government officials, and if those qualities ever disappeared, so too would the people’s liberty.

World’s Largest Armed Force


When we think of an armed force, most people will immediately think about the military as an armed force. True as that is, the Marxists in America and their globalist minions around the world have no understanding of the situation they face in the United States of America. The Japanese understood this reality during World War II, which is why they feared invading the Continental United States.

Striking Back at the Evil Empire


I have used the term Evil Empire to describe the state of the American government and the wider evil of the globalist One World Order, the cabal trying to establish world domination.These agents of Satan still have three stumbling blocks preventing them from reaching their goal. These stumbling blocks are the United States of America’s Constitution, the moral values of the Christian church, and the American patriots willing to defend both.

Death by a Thousand Cuts


If you think about it, America and Canada as nations are facing death by a thousand cuts. Not cuts by a recognized enemy with Ninja type skills, but by “paper cuts” by the corruptocrats within the bureaucracy of our own governments. Some of the corruptocrats are elected officials, but most are the Deep State corruptocrats buried deeply within what we laughingly call the Biden Administration in the U.S. and the Trudeau Administration in Canada.

Cockroaches and Rats


We often use metaphors when we are trying to draw attention or put a different face on an issue we consider important. There are a couple of metaphors that no longer ring true or have value in our discussions. I’ve often used rats and cockroaches to identify the evil that goes on in our culture and government. I have decided that cockroaches and rats are no longer good metaphoric tools, and here’s why.

Historically, you wake up at night and turn on the lights, cockroaches and rats scurry off to hide wherever they came from. Then in the morning you would call an exterminator to come and take care of your rat and/or cockroach problem. The cockroaches and rats knew, at some level, there were consequences for being discovered, and thus they scurried to their hiding places away from the lights. Now, if you failed to call in an exterminator whenever you discovered cockroaches and rats, the cockroaches and rats, after a period of time, would be conditioned to know that when the lights were shined on them, there were no consequences to fear, so they no longer scurried for cover. At some point, the rats and cockroaches learn to relish the light.

It’s Deja Vu All Over Again


The Biden administration once again demonstrated just how little respect they have for American citizens. Biden’s surrogates are trying to blame their totally botched exit from Afghanistan on President Donald J. Trump. American’s Marxist Uncle Joe Biden thinks Americans are so stupid that you will believe that eight months after Trump left office that the Biden administration’s tragic Afghanistan exit was Trump’s fault. It takes a special kind of stupid to come up with that assessment! It also takes the same special kind of stupid to show this much disrespect of the American people, who saw exactly what happened in August 2021. The Marxist Biden gang is saying don’t believe your lying eyes.

I Just Don’t Care If You Are Offended


As I look at America’s failed Marxist government and all the brain dead zombies who are complicit in the destruction of America’s Constitution and economy, I am sickened. I am officially old and bold enough to admit I have turned into an old curmudgeon, and I will speak the truth. If you choose to be offended by the truth as I see it, I simply don’t care.

Bad Rap for Certain States

Cranky Old Montana Curmudgeon

Over the years, many of us in the media have given certain states an undeserved bad rap. On the whole, no state is an all bad Marxist Democrat blue state. However, some states are clearly mostly bad and deserve the title Marxist Democrat blue state. But even these states have anti-Marxist Democrat voters called Republicans, so we must be cautious and not splatter blue paint on this small contingent of Constitution-loving patriots.

It seems ironic that when the Marxist, socialist, communist scare happened in the 1950s, they were the “Reds.” The Marxist Democrat labelers somehow turned that around and now red is associated with the Constitution-loving American patriots.

No Skin in the Game


“What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated.” ~ Thomas Paine

American patriots are composed of the following groups of people;

1. The few remaining World War II and Korean War veterans

2. Those of us who are veterans of the Vietnam War

3. Those who have served in the military and saw combat in the various conflicts since Vietnam

4. Those people who know and understand actual American history and the price paid by others

5. Those people who have legally migrated to and become citizens of America after living under repressive governments and know that America is headed down the wrong road

The Master Puppet Master


Like most Americans, even I have been in denial with my own political blind spot. I’m now satisfied that for the last two and a half years that I have been writing for CFP, I was quite myopic and looked too close to see that the real problems that are haunting American and Canada are not domestic. The sparkly things many of us have been paying too much attention to are merely what the real source of our problems want us to watch so our attention isn’t totally focused on them.

When the Enemy of the State is Its Government


In North America the enemies of the State of Canada and the State of the United State of America are their respective governments. Both of these governments are violating their respective founding documents, and for all intents and purposes, are lawless and no longer representing the wishes of their people. Both governments have, for all practical purposes, become tyrannical police states. The leaders of both countries are doing everything in their power to dissolve their nation’s founding documents and turn over sovereignty to the foreign controlled New World Order and the United Nations.

American Civilization Lost?


In his April 17, 2023, article Mr. Gerard Baker make one of the most succinct and accurate observations about civilization in the world today.

“If we are losing, it is because we are losing our soul, our sense of purpose as a society, our identity as a civilization. We in the West are in the grip of an ideology that disowns our genius, denounces our success, disdains merit, elevates victimhood, embraces societal self-loathing and enforces it all in a web of exclusionary and authoritarian rules, large and small.” ~ Gerard Baker, if-western-civilization-dies-put-it-down-as-a-suicide

Trump Did It Once, But Can He Do It Again?

Let me be perfectly clear, I am one of Donald J. Trump’s minions and have been since his trip down the “Golden Escalator.” He was the best President in my lifetime by such a large margin that I can’t even quantify it. However, we have to look at the real world we live in and assess what happened that got him elected, why he was so incredibly successful, why his second election failed so miserably, and what his prospects are in 2024 America.

Talk, Talk, Talk, Talk, Talk

Americans have a problem. Some of the brightest people on the planet are patriotic Americans who understand and appreciate the United States Constitution and have impressively identified the real state of the union in 2023. Hundreds, perhaps thousands of American patriots have ferretted out what is wrong and needs fixing in the American government. Jack Gleason did a wonderful job encapsulating where America stands today in his CFP article Overcoming Americas Political Paralysis.

Morlocks and Eloi

In 1960 MGM released the movie The Time Machine, based on the H.G. Wells 1895 science fiction novel of the same name. The film depicts H. George Wells, played by Rod Taylor, as a scientist who has developed the ability to travel through time. The film depicts a series of events the real Wells would have no knowledge of, but serves the film well. George Wells stops in London during World War I, World War II, and as a catastrophic nuclear holocaust begins. George Wells’ trip culminates with his landing in what appears to be an idyllic utopian land of the Eloi, where people were calm, happy, well fed, and oblivious to reality.

Scientists, Seers, Fear Mongers, Jokesters, Fools

In the April 4, 2023 print edition of The Epoch Times there is a wonderful article regarding the history of climate change and climate change predictions, or hoaxes, over the last century. Climate Predictions This article cited 42 of the nearly 100 failed predictions since 1923 in some detail.

Climate Change: To be clear, I am not a climate change denier. Climate change has been happening on the earth from the time God created the sun and then added air and water to the surface of the earth. The air and the water react to the heat from the sun and this results in weather, climate, and climate change. It is as simple as that. Climate change existed long before God got around to creating man and there is nothing man can do to influence weather or climate in the long term. Long term for this purpose is more than a few years. Even if man engaged in a nuclear holocaust, the resulting nuclear winter’s impact on climate and weather would likely last less than a decade.

We are the Storm

“Fate whispers to the warrior, 'You cannot withstand the storm.' The warrior whispers back, 'I am the storm.'” ~ Unknown *

In my youth, I was a bona fide warrior for the United States Army. I served in Vietnam in 1966 and 1967 as a teenaged combat helicopter pilot with Headquarters and Headquarter Company of the 1st Brigade, of the 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile). For most of that year, I flew low level reconnaissance as an OH-13S Scout pilot. Our scout mission was the same as horse cavalry scouts in the 19th century; look for and find the enemy. We were the storm in our time and place.
