Thinkers needed!


Good Morning breakfast clubbers, we’re glad to see you! Well, If you remember that, you’re not exactly a youngster, are you. No matter. Whoever might be reading this is top-notch in my book--older, younger, no matter, as long as you are one thing--a THINKER. And, if you meet this criterion, you know why I think that is the one most important thing for all Americans today.

And why is that? Well, we have an election coming up this year, an important one at that. And who do you suppose will win out in that election? Well, if you are one of the thinkers, you will also be something else: You’ll be a VOTER! And you know why. Who do you want to have making selections for our next group of congressmen, and a third of our next group of senators, and our president? Well, if you think the opinions of those “followers” are more important that the opinions of the thinking public (YOU, my friend,) then there is no reason for you to vote. If you agree with me, though, that a bit of thought is what is needed before a ballot is prepared, then you will vote, and your vote will provide us with who we need in DC to protect this nation of ours, and to do so better than those who are there today. We need a Congress and president who knows what Mr. Smith knew (if you don’t know what I mean by that, see if you can rent a copy of an old film, “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,” and watch it, and you will see what I mean and a representation of the kind of people we need in Washington.)  A whole new group of “Mr.’s” and/or “Ms.’s”, for that matter, are definitely needed, and needed across the board!

Too many (not all, of course, but too many) of those who are currently there are there working diligently for whom? Well, for themselves, that’s who. That was more than evident to everyone who watched the impeachment hearings and trial. How many people in those rooms voted as their consciences would have had them vote? Not many, I’m sure. The issue that was being considered was not voted on. What was voted on was “what is your political party?” And the results of those votes, first in the House and then in the Senate were totally predictable. And the determination from the whole process was bogus. Should DT have been impeached (he was, by the way)? Should DT have been convicted and removed from office (he was not)? What were the facts in both cases? Facts didn’t matter. Which is why the Senate refused to hear all witnesses to the supposed problem. All that mattered in the votes seen in both cases was the political party of the voters. No hearings were needed, folks. We knew from the beginning what the outcome was going to be.

And did the voters in the two hearings do their jobs? Some did, we can be sure, but many, or most, just voted their party line. Which was a sham, and the result was bogus, and would have been bogus regardless of which way it went.

We need a new Congress. We need one that will do its job. And that job would have resulted in a much different result than what we saw. It would either have been a resounding acquittal, or conviction of the President. None of this vote for the party would have been the least bit acceptable. We need a new Congress--We need a Congress of Mr. and/or Ms. Smiths. Had we had that, we would either have had a convicted and removed Mr. Trump or a totally exonerated one, one that did not even require a “trial” by the Senate.

Think about that. (If you don’t, or can’t, then we know who you are, and you are not someone who this note was written to.)

Ciao
