Honorable????

They had ‘Honorable’ in front of William Barr’s name during the hearing to get to the truth.

That actually made me cringe.

I can’t believe we are here. Half of the people asking questions are attacking him. The other half are kissing his ass.

I’ve always had a rough time with lawyers because even though they know what is true they frame an argument around the flimsiest of lies.

And I hate liars.

Barr should be ashamed of himself as a man.

He took the report and mischaracterized it.

Now he’s lying about the lie.

I’m truly finding it all hard to believe.

They open the hearing by saying that no crime was committed when the information is straight forward.

Mueller explains the collusion and the obstruction and the reasons why and why not...

...and Barr paints it in a totally different light.

Then tries to explain it away in a series of “I’m not sure...I don’t recall...I didn’t mean it that way” ....

...and on and on and on.

And we pay them all, with our tax dollars, to play this game of hide and seek with the truth.

It’s pretty disgusting, ain’t it?

On Wednesday morning, Trump sent out about 75 tweets in the first 3 hours of the work day.

Some attacked the FBI, some attacked the special counsel, some went after Hillary Freaking Clinton who’s been baking apple pies for more than two years...

...and on and on and on.

He’s suing to hide his taxes and his finances.

He believes everyone else is a liar.

He makes up stories, claims that everyone is talking about it.

Blah, blah, blah, blah-freaking-blah...

...and somehow, someway he has people lined up to carry his water.

“Thank God that God sent our president to be our leader.”

God sent him????

Really?

Then late on Wednesday it came down that he would not testify in front of the house.

“Thanks but no thanks,” he said.

He lied enough in front of the senate.

I’m embarrassed.

My Buddy, Dave

Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I be...

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C...

My sister’s book is out there! Go get it!! It makes me so proud to see the book on Amazon, knowing that it’s very, very great! It’s been a long, long time since we were out in California, brainstorming my stories long before they were published. Carrie Lynn was writing, writing and writing some more through the years and I kept telling her… …”Go for it!” Well, she did!  To amazing results. Of course I was able to read the book as it was being put together, but I ordered a copy from Amazon yesterday and can’t wait to read it again. The shoe is on the other foot now as I have been sitting on a lot of my writing lately. I plan on getting it out there before the end of 2024, but for now: Carrie takes center stage! And it’s so great… …go get a copy!
