Now that I’ve been labeled a MAGA, semi-fascist, racist threat to America’s Democracy by Joe Biden I figured I might as well embrace the title and defend it! I have no problem doing that, but I wonder if there will be any LIBERALS that will take me up on telling all of us what THEY stand for? Don’t hold your breath.
Joe Biden’s reading off the teleprompter of the speech that someone else wrote for him on Thursday night ( you know he doesn’t have enough brain cells left to rub together ) was probably one of the more frightening visions Liberals have put together in recent memory. Marines, flags and banners dimmed in blood red in the background……angry Joe trying to look serious. It all brought to mind memories I had of seeing the old grainy black and white movies of Hitler and Mussolini giving similarly themed speeches in the 30’s and 40’s. How soon we forget! As Hillary would put it …….DEPLORABLE!
So let me get right to this likely useless exercise in getting some liberals to respond. Here’s what I THINK it means to be a MAGA believer.
- First of all “Make America Great Again” does NOT mean I’d like us to return to any era of “white supremacy”, segregation, celebration of Robert E. Lee, crushing of labor unions or McCarthyism. It means making America the symbol of hope, strength, and opportunity for the rest of the World. PERIOD.
- I’d like our borders to be secure and healthy immigration to have rules to follow for those wishing to come here …….just like my ancestors did from Ireland, England, Holland, Germany and Scotland. For those that are truly escaping danger and seeking asylum (not arriving at the border in $150 Nike shoes and IZOD polo shirts and a cell phone that are nicer than I have!). You know the rules!
- I’d like a sensible energy policy that makes us ENERGY INDEPENDENT…….like we WERE in 2019. We can drill for gas and oil environmentally responsibly and make plans for the future at a RATIONAL pace.
- I would like an America where EVERY life matters…..INCLUDING the unborn. What kind of savages are you liberals that think killing your baby up to your delivery date is YOUR RIGHT???? You want us to all wear masks……well how about you all begin wearing CONDOMS so you don’t get pregnant in the first place!!! BTW…..the “morning after” pill should be free and available in EVERY pharmacy. Don’t even get me started on vaccines…..
- I would like schools to teach children HOW TO READ, WRITE and ADD 2+2 ! And how about a little penmanship while you’re at it! I’d like them to teach history as it really was, not how you’d like to change it. And how about simply plain old biology about reproduction at an appropriate time. And what the HELL do you need to be talking about gender identity to our kids at ANY POINT?? THAT is what American parents USED to do and it had nothing to do with what schools were supposed to be doing!
- I think everyone should be able to have health insurance……but if you’re walking around with an $800 iPhone that costs $150/month, have on $150 Oakleys, drive a new car with a $600/month lease payment and pay $2000/yr. for car insurance………then you DAMN WELL ought to have enough money to INSURE YOURSELF!! Let people BUY IN to Medicare if they qualify.
- As for school loan relief……..GET OFF YOUR ASS and off your XBox and get a damn job like MOST of us did and pay your OWN damn loans off! I made my last loan payment at age 42! And if you can’t pay for school then maybe you need to go to trade school and LEARN SOMETHING useful like all the tradesman and entrepreneurs out there that DID IT ON THEIR OWN.
- Lastly for now………Voting……..as above……if you love and cherish this country, get off your ass and go to a voting booth and cast your ballot. If you can’t make that effort then you deserve whoever you get. Absentee ballots worked FINE since the CIVIL WAR!! You had to ASK for one….say WHY you needed it and had to SIGN FOR IT. STOP your nonsense about there being “no election fraud”……..countless despots around the world claim that in every one of their “elections”……Just ask Vladamir Putin!
This is obviously a short list, but as I said earlier this week, I’d like this blog to create intelligent conversation. I wish I wasn’t so pessimistic about it, but I doubt I’ll get ONE comment from a liberal as to what THEY stand for. The only conclusion I can come to is they want to DESTROY AMERICA and haven’t figured out what they plan on replacing it with. I even read one article this week about how one liberal writer thinks it might be time to abandon the Constitution! So tell me you LIBERALS……..what DO you want? What DO you see America looking like besides one big SANCTUARY COUNTRY? I’m waiting……..
Thanks for reading. Please comment and SHARE! Remember…….Enjoy yourself…..It’s later than you think!!
I love everything you wrote and agree with all of it!!
Thank you!!!
Wow the levels of ignorance, greed, rank historic information you missed is astounding. Yet then again you are a MD not a political person and it shows so much.
Those student loans shouldn’t even exist btw, they are the result of a dickhead called Reagan, if you don’t know the details of that I suggest you go study. He is responsible for quite a bit of economic fuckery.
Outside that you sound like that grumpy old man yelling get off my lawn.
Anonymous may score a point for Reagan’s attempt to appease the left but does little to explain the plan for this brave new sanctuary. And quite frankly a third party or forth may tamp down the outrageousness of the 2 party system !

Anonymous seems to hate the two best President’s of our lifetime. Reagan & Trump are responsible for the two best boom economies in our lifetime. The biggest difference that I see between these two eras is that back in 1980 Dems were smart enough to know that a great man (Jimmy Carter) was doing a very poor job. Reagan was elected and then re-elected by a landslide. He was the last Republican presidential candidate to take California (that will never happen again!). But in 2020 the Dems ended the best performing economy we have had in over 60 years by hiring a very bad man who overturned all of those great policies fueling an incredible economy, safer borders, safer streets, energy independence, foreign enemies in check, etc. …horrible leadership, horrible results! This is no longer the Democratic Party that any of our parents or grandparents would recognize or ever vote for again. The greatest American generation ever would have never allowed this to happen! Happy Labor Day & God bless/save America!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
