Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Political quote du jour

"I am stunned at the immaturity of this administration.... We elected a man as president who had no experience at anything."


Steve Wynn

Excuse me--"WE" did not elect this man. The Chicago Mafia "elected" this man. The "NOW" "elected" this man. Anyone who had anything to do with "fiddling" with our electoral system "elected" this man. By that I mean any state legislator who put into place the new "voting machines", because they were "cheaper". Any attorney who campaigned against "voter identity" at the polls, "elected" this man. But, make no doubt about it--we the people did not have a clean election, therefore we the people did not "elect" this man!

Some one's sense of cultural guilt elected that man. It was certainly not a rational choice.

It is worse then that. We know next to nothing about this man, most of his history is made up. His professors and classmates where he supposedly went to school never saw him and never heard of him until he hit the national scene. How can you get credit for a class and your fellow class mates and teachers never even saw you in class or anywhere? He is more then an empty suit he is a Manchurian candidate, a puppet, a post turtle. Someone put him where he is, some one controlled his career and created his bio for him. Our MSM failed in their primary responsibility to vet this man in their eagerness to see him elected. When red flags surfaced the media quickly hid them or explained them away. Who is he?
