Vaccines are about money, power, control

Wednesday February 2, 2022

undefined

These very pious, holier-than-thou control freaks who keep demanding that everyone must be vaccinated need to answer some questions:

Why are the most highly-vaccinated countries like Israel, Australia, the United Kingdom and others also the nations with the highest number of people with the virus?

Why does Africa, by far the least-vaccinated continent, have by far the fewest COVID deaths, only 236,000 as of late January out of a population of 1.3 billion, four times the US?

Why have these vaccines caused hundreds of times more deaths and severe adverse reactions around the world than any other vaccine in human history?

Most People Oppose Forced Vaccinations, Firings

Wednesday November 10, 2021

undefined

The fastest growing political movement in the US and around the world today is a movement against forced vaccinations.

And it is a political movement because the left politicized the Covid vaccine right from the start.

Jane Fonda, before our last presidential election, called Covid “a gift to the left.”

Most who are now speaking out against forced vaccinations feel obligated to add that they themselves have been vaccinated. This is because, as Dr. Thomas Siler, M.D., wrote in a recent American Thinker article: “There is a massive propaganda push against those choosing not to vaccinate…”

Dr. Siler added: “Mainstream media, the big tech corporations, and our government have combined efforts to reward compliance and to shame and marginalize non-compliance.”

“Persons who choose not to vaccinate are characterized as unintelligent, selfish, paranoid people who don’t read much and live in a trailer park….”

US Covid Deaths Are Tragic, But So Is The Lockdown of Our Economy

Monday August 17, 2020

undefined

As I write this, 1.6 percent of the U.S. population have tested positive for Coronavirus— 5.2 million out of our 330 million people.

This figure probably shocks most people, because the mainstream media has tried as hard as possible to make this pandemic seem far worse than it actually is.

Every day there are repeated news reports about passing another “grim milestone”.

Over 166,000 have died with their deaths being attributed to the virus.

However, there have been numerous reports that many, possibly even most, of these deaths have been with “comorbidities” that could have been the primary cause.

Afghanistan Papers

Saturday January 4, 2020

undefined

Unfortunately, the blockbuster report known as the Afghanistan Papers has not received nearly as much coverage by most of the national news media as it deserved.

Overshadowed by impeachment news and perhaps a touch of professional media jealousy, most people outside the readership of the Washington Post have read little of this shocking report.

The Post story said, “US officials failed to tell the truth about the war in Afghanistan throughout the 18-year campaign, making rosy pronouncements they knew to be false and hiding unmistakable evidence the war had become unwinnable.”

John Sopko, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, said, “The American people have constantly been lied to.”

Sopko headed the agency which conducted more than 400 interviews in a side project called “Lessons Learned” which began in 2014. He should be considered as an American hero for his work.

Goodbye My Friend, Walter Jones

Saturday February 16, 2019

undefined

I just retired after serving 30 years in the US House of Representatives and 16 years before that as a lawyer and Judge. I have to say, of all the great men and women with whom I have worked during my career, Walter Jones was one of the best.

What the ‘Neocon Chickenhawks’ Have Wrought

Thursday December 6, 2018

undefined

The 100th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice to end World War I has generated a lot of discussion and articles about the so-called “Great War.” Most of the neocon chickenhawks who so eagerly led us into the disastrous war in Iraq seemingly want to be regarded as modern-day Winston Churchills.

So We 'Win' Syria – What Then?

Thursday April 12, 2018

undefined

In the days leading up to the Congressional vote on whether to go to war in Iraq years ago, Fortune Magazine had an article headlined “We Win – What Then?” 

The article said a prolonged war in Iraq would make American soldiers “sitting ducks for Islamic terrorists.” 

Another national magazine at that time, U.S. News and World Report, had an article headlined, “Why the Rush to War?” 

Now that war has been frequently referred to as possibly the greatest foreign policy mistake in U.S. History.

The night before the Iraq war vote, a television station in Knoxville had a poll showing 74% in favor of the war, 9% against, and 17% undecided. I was one of six Republicans who voted against going to war, and for three or four years, that certainly was the most unpopular vote I ever cast. But slowly, slowly, slowly, it became my most popular vote. 

We were basically conned into that war by a group called Neo-Cons, so called neoconservatives, who George Will once described as being “magnificently misnamed” because they were really the “most radical people in this City,” meaning Washington.

GOP Congressman: Trump Losing Me on Foreign Policy

Wednesday September 6, 2017

undefined

A few days before the 2000 elections, I hosted the Duncan Family Barbecue at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum, which aside from free food, always features bands, choirs, and top names from the Country music and Oldies worlds, drawing upwards of 10,000 people.

Governor George W. Bush, then the Republican Presidential nominee, walked out to the podium to the sound of the University of Tennessee Pep Band. After his speech, I walked him back to his vehicle parked in the bowels of the coliseum, and I told him “Governor, you are going to carry Tennessee.” He replied: “If I do, I will win the election,” and that is exactly what happened.

Syria Intervention is a Mistake: US Can't Run Entire Middle East

Wednesday October 7, 2015

undefined

The same people that got us into a very unnecessary war in Iraq are now clamoring for military action in Syria.

These same people that have opposed us getting out of Afghanistan, even though our troops have been there more than three times longer than World War II, now demand action in Syria.

These same people seem to want us to be at war in almost every country in the Middle East even though things are worse now than when we started fighting there many years ago.

Surely we have learned a very costly lesson after spending trillions of US taxpayer dollars and losing thousands of American lives that we cannot run the Middle East.
