“LIAR” OR “LAUGH”
by OPOVV, ©2019
(Jun. 30, 2019) — “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to ‘The Pulse of the Nation,’ your go-to source for fact-filled entertainment. Hello, I’m Roving, as in Roving Reporter (RR), and we’re here at the Veterans’ Memorial across the street from the baseball stadium, next to the bookstore, about to take a poll to see who, among the Democratic candidates, are at the top of the list for ‘The Dunce Award,’ the infamous stupid award handed out every four years to those candidates who have demonstrated why some of us have evolved more than, say, a piece of cardboard or some spilt oatmeal. Excuse me, Miss, care to be interviewed on ’Pulse’,,the exciting current news information show?”
“No, thank you, I’m here to honor my brother, a brother who believed in America when he was sent to Vietnam to stop the Communist aggression when he should’ve stayed here, right at home, and fought against the Socialist agenda being spouted by our mainstream media and university professors and, let’s face it, in public schools everywhere.”
“So what happened to your brother over there?”
“He became a realist. He says he belongs to the ‘Don’t Mince* with Me’ political party. He says it means to take the Constitution at face value and not bend it to the enemy’s will, such as abolishing the Second Amendment. Do you know that confiscating the people’s means to defend themselves from a tyrannical government is the first step that despotism needs to take hold?”
“Well, yes, actually, I did know that. So, let me ask you this: who’s dumber, Kamala Harris or Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?”
“What about Jeb Bush and Paul Ryan; don’t they count?”
“Sure they count, but they’re not presidential contenders.”
“So what’s the answer?”
“Truthfully?”
“Truthfully.”
“Harris is a better liar, while AOC is a better laugh, but, all-in-all, I’d have to say they’re equally dumb, although Harris is more of a hypocrite. Wait, let me put it this way: why would anybody think Harris would make a good president when she can’t even figure out contraception methods?”
“Good point; let’s take a commercial break.”
“Going Back Home” (5:13)
“Excuse me, Sir, would you be a Veteran, by any chance?”
“Yep; what’s it to you?”
“Oh, nothing much, just interviewing our neighbors on their take on America in the year 2019, that’s all.”
“Oh, I know who you are: you’re that ‘Roving Reporter.’”
“That’s right. So what are you doing here, at this memorial?”
“Trying to keep it together, if you want to know the truth. If you want the lie, I’ll just say I’m here to honor my fallen comrades.”
“And you’re not?”
“If by that you mean if I’m second-guessing God, I’d have to say that’s way over my pay grade. Let’s just say that the people who move people like me around the playing field are, most of the time, my enemies, and that goes for those who wish to make our country just another failed Socialist State, ripe for takeover from the Iranians, Russians and the Chinese alike. Like I always say, do you really care who shoots the bullet that kills you?”
“What do your brothers-in-arms say?”
“You want the truth or do you want some political correctness horse hockey?”
“Let’s try the truth first, and if that doesn’t work then let’s go to the horse hockey.”
“Roving, I knew I liked you and now I know why. Okay, the truth of the matter is that Americans believe in law and order. You break the law: you face the consequences. You come here illegally — you don’t get Food Stamps and Welfare — you get deported. You don’t like Christmas or Easter, get out of my country: you’ve no business here. If you want to make my neighborhood or city the cesspool from whence you came, go back.”
“That’s as straightforward talk as I ever heard.”
“Can’t make it any more clear; too bad the politicians don’t listen to us people any more. Let me say this: there’s an undercurrent rippling through our country, and it started in 1776 and it hasn’t abated one bit. Sure, the morons get the upper hand once in a while, but, overall, we’ve pretty-much kept our Republic intact; that is, until Obama and the Deep State tried to take over.”
“And now it’s a different ball game?”
“Let me just say this about that: we’re about to take the gloves off, and when we do, every illegal immigrant and their kids (DACA) will be deported; every Muslim deported and for those who are left, if you don’t take an oath to the United States of America, we’ll send you to any country that uses slave labor. There: THAT’S what America thinks, okay?”
“Okay, and that will do it for us and so, on behalf of the crew, I’ll be wishing you all a goodnight, but before I do, I’d like to make a comment about the people who we elect.
“From what just happened with Clinton, the DNC and all the alphabet soups of our government, we came within a razor’s edge of having a dictatorship and to judge dictators by history, it doesn’t give one a sense of confidence in us humans picking leaders. That said, let me also say this: once in a while – about a million to one – there comes along a very rare bird known as the Benevolent Dictator. One could say that the Dalai Lama is one such person, OPOVV could’ve been such a leader, and President Trump can also fit in that rarefied category. These are people who can’t be bought.
“Now I want you all to visualize if any of the Democratic candidates could possibly fulfill the role of a benevolent dictator, and you will have to agree that in no way could Kamala Harris or AOC fit the bill. One must have an inner confidence to go through life owing favors to no one — except one’s conscience — having been groomed from the teachings of the Golden Rule.
“And let me add one more thought, if I may. Professor Zorkophsky says that the police are, by following the Democratic mayor’s unlawful orders to let chaos reign (by ordering the police to be worthless bystanders while citizens’ rights, safety and lives are in jeopardy), ought to rethink their oath: did they take the oath to uphold the Constitution or did they turn their backs on what they signed up for in the first place: to protect the citizens from the ANTIFA, Occupy and all the other goons out there, including the Kamala Harris and AOC supporters? And double thumbs-up for Trump to step foot in North Korea. Goodnight.
“Good show. Let’s grab some burgers: my treat.”
