84-Year-Old Wins $591 Million Lottery: Better Late Than Never?

By John W. Lillpop


Gloria MacKenzie had a real good day May 18: She won the power ball lottery worth about $591 million, before taxes.

No Doubt the 84-year-old Floridian woman is wild with joy!  All of those dreams can now be realized.

On the other hand, Ms. MacKenzie must be cursing the heavens for waiting so damn long to bring Serendipity into her life.

After all, at her age, there simply are not a whole of lot of years left in which to enjoy her newly minted wealth.

Still, my congratulations to Gloria and best wishes for a great time in the years ahead.

And if you are looking for a conservative gentleman to escort you through your remaining golden years(for a small fee), I can be reached 24/7 in California!

Barack Obama Has His Way With Susan Rice!

By John W. Lillpop


Have Republicans managed to get into the head of President Obama?

The question is posed because of Obama’s petulant action as concerns Susan Rice, one- time Ambassador to the United Nations and most prominently in the news recently for presenting a discredited time line about the events surrounding the September 11 Benghazi attack to five major Sunday news shows last September, whilst America was in the middle of a heated political campaign.

Republicans still take umbrage with Rice for her role in the Benghazi scandal, and raised such a fuss that Obama was eventually forced to abandon his plan to elevate Rice to the position of Secretary of State to replace Hillary Clinton, who is already running to replace Obama in 2016.

One senses that the President was none too pleased with what he saw as the GOP’s shoddy treatment of his good and faithful servant, the "do as you are told" loyalist, Susan Rice.

No doubt smoldering anger and resentment drove Obama to “revenge politics,” a sadistic form of political gamesmanship used by spoiled brats, mostly out-of-touch elitist intellectuals in their 50s, to turn serious issues like national security into grudge matches for marble matches gone awry.

In psychological babble-talk, Barack is clearly failing in his efforts to keep his “Inner Child of the Past” under control.

Which explains his decision to appoint Rice as his next security adviser, a position that does not require approval from anyone except The One himself.

No damn Republican input required, or desired!

How’s that for an “In Your Face” slap down from Obama’s little boy?

Mature observers will note that national security IS about more than marble matches and the hurt feelings of a scorned brat, however precocious he may be!

Seeing Through the Non-Existent Obama “Transparency”

By John W. Lillpop



Americans are, by and large, a fair-minded, reasonable people willing to give others, even notoriously unreliable politicians, the benefit of the doubt.

There is a limit, however.

Take, for instance, Barack Obama’s broken promise that his would be the “most open, transparent administration in history.”

The exact words from The One are repeated below from his aptly but deceptively titled, “Transparency and Open Government” document issued in the opening moments of his first term.

From Obama’s lying lips to the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies:



“My Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government. We will work together to ensure the public trust and establish a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration. Openness will strengthen our democracy and promote efficiency and effectiveness in Government.”

Such high-minded objectives and commitments to the common good make one proud to be an American. At first blush, that is.

Regrettably, the miserable Obama transparency record over the past four plus years has turned naïve pride into embarrassment, disgust, and distrust of government.

Indeed, with three major scandals concurrently hounding Barack Obama, transparency is nowhere to be found.

And the Obama transparency malarkey is finally being acknowledged as pure malarkey by large numbers of Americans, as reported at the reference:

Americans doubt the Obama administration can be trusted in the wake of the recent IRS scandal and other controversies, but most people stop short of holding the president personally responsible, a new poll has found.

A majority of respondents, or 55 percent, said the IRS scrutiny of conservative groups raised their doubts about the administration's "overall honesty and integrity," according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC survey of 1,000 adults.

A similar proportion of respondents said the administration's handling of the terrorist attack on a U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, last September and the recent surveillance of reporters by the Justice Department also contributed to their dimmer view of the administration.

Furthermore, just 27 percent of independents see the president as being "honest and straightforward" compared to 45 percent who thought so in January.

"The poll's big story is the sharp erosion among independents," Yang said.

Meanwhile, of the three controversies surrounding the administration, people pin the most blame on the president for his handling of Benghazi, with 41 percent of those surveyed saying he is primarily responsible.

But McInturff suggested the controversies are not yet having a serious effect on his presidency. "These episodes are not Iran-Contra," he said, adding that they are "impacting but not restructuring" the president's public support.”

Caution to Obamamites : Given the legendary Obama narcissism and arrogance, it surely won’t be long until all voters join Independents in recognizing the fundamental failings of Barack Hussein Obama.

Hint: Eric Holder’s resignation could hasten that day of enlightenment!

Rep. Jim McDermott(D-WA) Blames Tea Party for IRS Corruption, Tyranny!

By John W. Lillpop

Most sane people, occasionally including President Barack Obama, other leading Democrats, as well as the incoming director of the IRS, all agree that the ongoing targeting scandal involving the IRS vendetta against conservative organizations was an unmitigated outrage, perhaps unconstitutional and or illegal, definitely un-American, and in need of urgent remedial action to assure there is no repeat.

Mind you, the operative words are SANE people.

On the other hand, you have the likes of Rep. Jim McDermott, far- left loon from Washington state, who has dedicated his miserable life to lowering the bar on expectations for ethics and fairness from government agencies.

At a House Committee hearing on IRS misconduct, Rep. McDermott used his bullying mouth in a failed attempt to shift the blame for the IRS crimes to the victims, those conservative organizations with the audacity to use terms like “Patriot” and “Tea Party” in their applications for tax exempt status.

McDermott’s pitiful slobbering on behalf of the fund-raising wing of the DNC—the IRS—was an embarrassment, not only to the good people of Washington, but to each and every American who has been in the clutches of uncontrolled tyranny such as that practiced by an out-of-control IRS.

As reported at the reference, McDermott chased common sense and intellectual honesty from the Hill with inane comments like this:


“Each of your groups is highly political,” the congressman said. “From opposing the President’s healthcare reform, to abortion restrictions, to gay marriage, you’re all entrenched in some of the most controversial political issues in this country – and with your applications you are asking the American public to pay for that work. Many of you host and endorse candidates. The line between permitted political activity and non-permitted political activity can be very fine, and it’s important that tax payers know which side you fall on.”

The obvious rejoinder is to ask the bloated Representative how in the hell it was that a Barack Obama family member was able to apply for, and receive, tax-free status within 30 days? Or how it was that the Lois Lerner gangsters did not target liberal organizations “entrenched in controversial political issues”?

Luck of the draw, Representative McDermott?

With any luck at all, the good people of Washington state will come to their collective senses in November 2014, Representative, and send you to retire in much deserved misery!

Why the Mad Rush to Become Mexico?

By John W. Lillpop


Some American politicians, sadly on both sides of the ideological aisle, seem obsessed with the desire to downgrade our pristine, advanced, and cultured nation into a 3rd-world, failed state akin to Mexico, our beleaguered neighbors to the south.

Without fear of contradiction, it can be stated emphatically that Mexico is a corrupt, damn- near uninhabitable terror network run by drug cartels, human smugglers and Mexican elitists who live off the backs of unwashed Mexican peasants AND American bozos who buy Mexican drugs and rhetoric.

Mexico’s chief exports are illiterate peasants and drugs, both marketed with booming success in America.

Why in the world are US elected officials so fond of the inferior culture that permitted Yanira Maldonado, an innocent mom of seven from Arizona, to be set up by Mexican police, and whom might have rotted for months in a filthy, sub-human Mexican prison were it not for media reports which proved that Maldonando’s only real crime was being dumb enough to go to Mexico in the first place, when she should have known better!

We understand that Maldonado visited the hell that is Mexico in order to pay final respects to an aunt who had been mercifully allowed to escape the manacles of Mexico for the meager price of that auntie’s earthly life.

Your life or your freedom to get out of Mexico, aunt!  Auntie was smart and got the hell out of Mexico with the best offer available!

Still why do folks like Barack Obama, Harry Reid, and Nancy Pelosi, and most, if not all, Democrats, want to remake America into a likeness of Mexico with the putrid amnesty proposal now being debated?

Humanitarian reasons you say?  Really?

What about the human needs and rights of American citizens—why not advocate on their behalf for a moment?

While Democrats are the main drivers of the Mexican lunacy, Republicans(?) like John McCain, Lindsey Graham, and Marco Rubio have joined the ranks of the insane and are amenable to destroying American culture, language, and sovereignty for----cheap labor?

Again, Mexico is an inferior culture.  Why do US politicians want to downgrade and dumb-down America?
