We have between 6 and 8 inches of very heavy, wet Snow this morning. I am in N. CO, not the mountains. I can see a number of branches broken. Needed the moisture, but not the broken branches. A real, expensive, mess.
There remains some clarity here for those disposed to find it, that is, for those willing to discount the leaked stories aimed by lingering Obamites’ JCPOA aspirations to undermine the administrations’ strategic objectives so solidly put and maintained from the beginning of this war right through today. We don’t have to accept the bullshit, we can just recognize and toss it from the jump.

Did you ever get that new computer? If so, which one did you choose?

RE: My comment about the decline of the Secret Service on another, earlier thread.
I, like many other people, probably had–until, say, ten or so years ago, when things started to obviously go downhill–an almost mythic impression of Federal Agencies like the FBI and the Secret Service, which decades of very successful PR had fostered.
I can still remember coming home from grade school in the 1950s, to listen to not only “The Green Hornet,” but also to the “The FBI in Peace and War” on our old radio. Then later, on TV, there were other straight arrow FBI portrayals.
Those far more naive days are gone, and the well earned suspicion is that these and many other major government agencies were not the straight arrow, 100 percent patriotic, upstanding, highly competent, and efficient organizations they were very successfully portrayed back then as being and–as we have increasingly seen–they are certainly not that way today.
My impression–correct me if I am wrong–is that, in general, as the decades have rolled on, our government has become progressively more corrupt, bloated, and hidebound; an Administrative State which has grown parasitic, far more of an impediment than a help, or strong pillar supporting our democratic Republic and the Constitution.
Just to say, Ted Turner was a great sailor alongside everything else.
