WARMING: This post is political satire and anyone who does not know what satire is or does not appreciate satire should not read any further.


A few days ago our supreme leader publicly took the Covid booster shoot. It was a way to lead by example and show all those in his domain that if he the supreme leader follows the orders of others then his subjects should be willing to follow his orders. It also demonstrated that if he being an old man with cognitive and physically impairment issues believes it is safe to take the vaccine then all should feel reassured it is safe for them to take, especially the very young and healthy. And because our supreme leader is also a benevolent leader he will issue proof of vaccinations certificates that will grant to all who take the vaccine the right to fly on airplanes, ride buses, gather together for sporting events and eat inside restaurants all while wearing masks, after all in this fine country we all know our rights come from god (good old democrats) and every dollar is inscribed with in god (good old democrats) we trust and of course our most benevolent supreme leader is a democrat and anyone who does not trust and obey him must be an insurrectionist that needs to be punished or have a mental impairment and should be committed to mental health therapy to teach them to think clearly.

One way to keep things from hitting the Attic. Very good story, but there are some smart Rep. sheep that don’t follow the goat!

I post all my non fishing posts in the attic to start with. I really like the attic and those that post in the attic it is refreshing to be able to say what you want and have others do the same. The reason for this post was to show how far we have come or fallen as a nation. It is sad that we are quickly becoming more like a dictator ship where all freedoms are granted by the supreme leader and no dissention is tolerated. I found this quote at (https://www.openculture.com) it was made by John Stuart Mill, way back in 1867 at an inaugural address at the University of St. Andrews and stated: “Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.” it is very similar to the often quoted “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” this is were we are at in this country right now in the culture war that is going on in our country. Slowly we are seeing some good people starting to speak out and standing against this madness but sadly it comes with a price.

We’re starting to see, warranted uprisings around us here. People are just about done with all the crap being dumped on us. Me included. When we all take a stand and defend what is ours we will get things accomplished. Sad part is there are more sheep following direction right because of all the easy offerings and misleading information than those of us willing to stand up. It’s a one sided war that’s quickly becoming more balanced as I see it. I just took a trip to Wyoming to be with my Mom, 92, who just had a pacemaker put in. The entire state is near bankrupt because it relies on fossil fuels to survive. Those people are close to retaliation in a big way. They’ve lost everything and the “supreme leader” don’t care and probably doesn’t even know. People there have survived for hundreds of years in their industries without complications from exposure to fossil fuels. My Mom is 92 and comes from a family that all lived very healthy into their 90s. You go to the west coast where everything is a big deal and very seldom meet anyone over about 80 years old living in the “healthy” regions of the world. It’s not real hard to see where our problems lie.

Fortunately Nebraska has been remaining neutral although I am not at all pleased with our Senators! Will just keep my head down and not let the evil shove in! I have a Daughter in Wyoming, and yes that state is in trouble! The fossil fuel has dropped to a slow crawl, the coal trains that was numerous are now nearly nonexistence! Her husband is a Sherif and refuses the jab. I could ramble on and on, but will stop here!

Our neighbor just moved to Florida from here. He’s ready to move back already. He said the wind and a little snow is way more enjoyable than the sun and all the politics.

In Florida at least you have some freedom. In most of the Northeast we have Dictators supporting the Supreme Leaders Nonsense. They follow "Their Science", not Real Science and create Mandates against the citizens Constitutional Rights!

Goats ? Sheep ? Some good
analogies, but I compare our
'Fearless Leader' and his ilk
more to lemmings, and the
idiot is leading his followers
over a precipice ! After the
fiasco in Afghanistan and the
border wall problems, it seems
to me there should be something
in all his screw-ups that would
warrant impeachment ! Get the
bum out before he digs this
country into a hole that we
can't get out of !
