RAPID
RESPONSE (Archives)...Daily Commentary on News of the Day
This is a new
section. It will
offer fresh,
quick reactions by myself to news and events of the day, day by day, in
this rapid-fire world of ours. Of course, as in military
campaigns,
a rapid response in one direction may occasionally have to be followed
by a "strategic withdrawal" in another direction. Charge that
to
"the fog of war", and to the necessary flexibility any mental or
military
campaign must maintain to be effective. But the mission will
always
be the same: common sense, based upon facts and "real politick",
supported
by a visceral sense of Justice and a commitment to be
pro-active.
That's all I promise.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, 8:30 PM...
just following the 15 minute speech by Joe Biden from the Oval Office regarding his decision.
My reaction:
IT WAS INSULTING.
AND IT WAS YET MORE EVIDENCE, BY HIS AGREEMENT TO MAKE THAT SPEECH, OF HIS COGNITIVE INCAPACITY.
After all the events of recent days and weeks, was that all that he was able to say to the American People?
How STUPID do his handlers think the People are? VERY STUPID.
In November we will find out whether they are Right.

A STEP INTHE RIGHT
DIRECTION FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY - OF WHICH I WAS A MEMBER AND LOCAL OFFICE
HOLDER BETWEEN 1967 AND 1990.
But it is only a step
for this organization, which met a "fork in the road", and which went head-long down the wrong way.
Now let's see whom
they choose as their standard-bearer. The current Vice President? The Governor
of California? That would be IDIOCY.
My vote is for Donald
Trump. But I would not mind a contest between two candidates who are both
deserving of the American People.

I
was driving out of Yellowstone when my family and I heard on the radio
that there was an assassination attempt against former President Trump.
I’ve
had an uneasy feeling this could or would happen for months now, as the
media and President Biden have done everything they could to demonize
President Trump with every bit as much vitriol as they’ve come after
pro-lifers with.
I
mean, just days ago we saw a leaked presentation given at a U.S. Army
base calling pro-lifers who have “Choose Life” license plates domestic
terrorists.
But
knowing that the Democrats have been using increasing demonizing
rhetoric against President Trump didn’t make seeing President Trump
with a bloody ear — the result of a bullet that only narrowly missed
killing him — any easier.
My kids began to cry, worried about their country.
george, what kind of nation are we living in?
That’s the question we are facing today.
We’re living in a nation that’s losing its moral compass — and we’re paying a price for that.
We have a rampant Culture of Death in America.
One that says killing innocent preborn babies is okay if they are inconvenient to you.
One
that says you can call your opponent in a political race "Hitler" over
and over again and say you’re putting a “bullseye” on him is okay.
One
that allows ANTIFA protestors, those violent Leftists who have come to
my very own speaking events to “shut me down,” to enact violence and
make death threats in our communities and on our campuses with zero
consequences.
It's disgusting.
It’s tragic.
We, as Americans, need to pray for God’s guidance through this.
We need to be bold enough to stand up for what’s right once again.
We need to denounce evil and all who support it.
We
need the courage to “fight,” as President Trump said moments after
being shot, against the Culture of Death and violence that surrounds us.
And that includes fighting against the Abortion Lobby and their puppet, President Joe Biden.
Political violence is wrong.
Violence in the womb against preborn babies is wrong.
But they will both continue if we continue to accept them.
Let’s end this now.
For Life,
Kristan Hawkins
President, Students for Life

'FOUR SCORE AND SEVEN YEARS
AGO..."
the unique American experiment in
self-government was brought to life,
after a difficult gestation and
delivery.
And after a difficult childhood and
teen-ages and many decades of adulthood,
it finds itself in recent years led
by a band of political pygmies.
As occurs every four years at the
national level, on July 15 we citizens will enter
yet another period demonstrating how
much or little our prospective "leaders" deserve
"We The
People".
Or will it once again be "...a
tale as told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"?
We the People do have a critical
role to play, especially considering our choices in recent years
and the resulting devolution of this
American experiment.
So: PAY ATTENTION, BECOME AND STAY
INFORMED, AND VOTE! VOTE!!
Let us prove to ourselves and to
each other that we Americans Deserve the Legacy left for us
by the simple and profound words of
Abraham Lincoln on the blood-drenched earth of Gettysburg.

THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS
November 19, 1863
Fourscore
and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new
nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all
men are created equal.
Now
we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or
any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met
on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion
of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their
lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper
that we should do this.
But,
in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate — we cannot consecrate — we
cannot hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who
struggled here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or
detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say
here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the
living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they
who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to
be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from
these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which
they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly
resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation
shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, by
the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

As a great Catholic Priest used to begin his homilies:
"OUR BRIEF CONSIDERATION"...
today is about Joe Biden's "Press Conference" held yesterday evening, 7/11.
Was it lucky for him?
NO.
It was not free of stumbles.
The answers to questions were delivered in the halting, sleepy way that we have come to expect and accept from him.
But worst of all: he knew who were going to ask the questions...AND HE MUST HAVE KNOWN THE QUESTIONS AHEAD OF TIME,
thereby having been able to prepare the answers in detail, including both Facts and Fancy.
That was far from a spontaneous Q & A.
And it was far from a diagnostic test of his cognitive abilities.
But was it lucky for us, the long-suffering American People?
Yes.
Because it will probably strengthen his plan to continue in the Presidential Election - AND TO LOSE TO PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP!
So 7/11 will have been ultimately a LUCKY DAY for the nation.

SEE MY RAPID RESPONSE OFFERING FOR JULY 7, 2024 RELATING TO THE "CURRENT WORLD SITUATION".
Since then, two relevant articles have appeared supporting my concerns.
1) "The Pentagon Can't Wait To Innovate", by Leon E. Panetta and Mike Gallagher (in WSJ July 10, 2024, Opinion, pA15.
2) "Beijing Leads U.S. In Fusion Race", by Jennifer Hiller and Sha Hua (in WSJ July 9, 2024, pB1).
We have also seen articles bemoaning the U.S. inability to manufacture here for our warfare requirements.
But fear not. We are taking good care of the "WOKE" education of our Military.

AS I HAVE EXPRESSED ON THIS WEB-SITE
BOTH RECENTLY AND IN THE PAST,
THE FEDERAL BUREAUCRACY IS
UNELECTED, SELF-PERPETUATING AND UNCONTROLLED...AN ADMINISTRATIVE LAW BEHEMOTH.
It is long past time for this
aberration in our Constitutional Separation of Powers and responsiveness to the
People to be corrected.
That correction reportedly has taken
place during the recently concluded session of the USSC.
And a side benefit evidently
promises to bring to a siding the runaway train involving "Climate
Change".
See: "These Supreme Court
Decision Just Made It Harder To Solve Climate Change", by AkiellyHu /
Grist (in CTMirror, July 2, 2024).

INDEPENDENCE DAY, 1776: THE BIRTH OF
OUR NATION.
As with the birth of any human
being, endowed with Free Will by its Creator, the resulting Life is in our
hands.
So too with a nation of human
beings, the result is not predictable and varies between good and bad.
In the case of the "Biden
Presidency", the result has been worse than mediocre - and has been
recently fully revealed.
Several recent articles in the July
3, 2024 edition of the WSJ clearly articulate what we have been experiencing
since 2020.
- "Was
There A Biden Presidency?", by Holman W. Jenkins, Jr.
- "Jill
Biden, Put Your Country First", by William A. Galston.
- "The
Toothless 25th Amendment", by Eric Felten.
Read and Remember this over the next
several months as we approach the most Consequential Election of our lives
.

SO MANY ISSUES. SO LITTLE TIME.
But I am committed to trying my best
with this web-site...in this, its 25th year.
Today, "OUR BRIEF
CONSIDERATION", as my former Pastor used to begin all his Homilies:
1) "The 'Green Energy
Transition' That Wasn't", by Bjorn Lomborg (in WSJ June 25, 2024,
Opinion, pA17). A "pig in a poke" if there ever was one.
2) As I had discussed numerous
times, the BUREAUCRACY has become a self-perpetuating Monster.
See: "Liberal Bureaucrats
Threaten Democracy", by Mitch McConnell, (in WSJ June 12, 2024,
Opinion, pA17). But "The End is Near", if the recent USSC holding is
to be implemented. Good Work!
3) And more from the USSC: this
nation needs a strong President in order to operate in keeping with the intent
of our Constitution.
4) But now for a chronic, festering
wound in danger of producing a fatal sepsis in the world: the Middle East and
especially Israel and the Palestinians. Here, some conclusory statements:
a) the Palestinians need - although
do not necessarily deserve - a homeland;
b) political Israel will henceforth
continue to have a homeland - although Not the Land of the Bible. And the U.S.
will continue to be its guarantor - within those parameters - for the
sake of Israel and for our own strategic requirements. The most recent actions
of Israel in the West Bank is understandable but is Not helpful...or lasting.
See: "We Cannot Give Up On
Peace", by Jerry Fischer (in The Day, June 16, 2024, Perspective,
pB3).
See: "Israel OK's Land Grab
In West Bank", by Julia Frankel (in The Day, July 4, 2024, pA2).
