Good for you Pat, sharing your enthusiasm over our newly elected President. Maybe an inauguration party at Mesa or Timbers instead would work?…I’m down for that!
Sorry about the lefty power base putting the kibosh on your parade. It would seem parade permits in our local SB bubble are ONLY granted to those involved with the following approved movements: Environmental, as in GOO (Get Oil Out!) or some similar, other goofy, stupid, nonsensical bullshit. Sexuality, as in your desire to be with the same sex or to somehow play make believe and change your sex or species into a cat, bunny or some other four legged animal. Abortion, as in being able to “pull the plug” on someone you’ve never even met, even at the time of birth or even if you’re Gay and not interested in having children. Race, as in standing up for others, as long as they’re anything but white and even if they’re involved in committing heinous crimes.
That about covers it, again sorry about your plans for a MAGA parade, but hey, I’ll be celebrating the end of Joe Biden and the most corrupt, feckless, incompetent and criminal administration in American history. That’s right, ringing in the New Year with the welcoming of the Trump administration and making America great again with low taxes, lowering government spending, strong national defense and an economic juggernaut, the likes of which the world has never seen before!
Frankly I’m scared. Do we really want to be a nation? That’s threatening Canada, Denmark and Panama. Not to mention threatening the whole world with tariffs. Let alone promising to separate thousands of families that have been in this country for years.
Do all republicans really like the idea that President elect Trump hopes to erase his conviction BY A JURY. Sounds a lot like Netanyahu to me.
Don't be afraid of Trump taking the bull by the horns. He's a doer, unlike most politicians that can't think beyond filling their pockets with taxpayers' money. Standby and watch, you'll learn something about how a small percentage of the population operates. These are the people that get things done, not just talk about it.
And he's laughing all the way to the bank. If you were a doer, you'll discover you win some and you lose some. But if you don't put your neck out there, you'll never find that out Daniel. Nothing stops Trump, he keeps on going. That's what you want in a President. Trump hangs around with the Doers.
Oh please Castleberg, enough with the hand wringing. It amazes me how lefty’s are enamored with jury decisions, unless it’s an all-white jury in the South. BTW, Canada has had a belly full of the failed, moronic policies of Justin Trudeau. Vive La Pierre Poilievre!
A-M: If some people have been "living here illegally for years", why did they never try to make things right with our laws? They knew what they were doing, and they did not even lift a finger. We then know what they refused to do - apply for legal status and make things right. That is on them; yet you want to make this on us. Why is that?
TakeTrump seriously, but not literally. Good watch words from this time forward. The stage has changed actors, but theatrics still rule the day. Roll with it. The world is begging for a realignment. The prior one was stagnant and dysfunctional. Big Government and Big Brother are on the way out. Speaking loudly and carrying a big stick will set things anew. Join in.
A-MC: You do realize we have a three part judicial system?
The reason is because it is given juries can and do get things wrong. This has always been the way our system works. It is not over until every appeal is exhausted. Jury trial or a bench trail is only step one. Don't overly invest in this.
Have more faith in our US institutions working the way they are intended to work. Just often not when we want them to work, but in the big picture justice does get served eventually. Which this election alone proved we are again back on track.
America in its gut knew something had gone wrong in this country, and they voted overwhemingly to strike out in a new direction and get back to our fundamental basics.
Big Government and Big Brother was never part of our original bargain. That is what America rebelled against when this year they voted for change. We have a 250th birthday coming up. A time for serious renewal of our contract with each other as American citizens.
There are no threats. Just quid pro quo offers put on the table. If Canada is ripping off $200 billion dollars a year and keeping its border open for more hostile invaders into our country, we do need some very serious discussions. With consequences. What do you like best about the current situation that you don't want to change?
LOL, I've surmised S. 2 uses Autonomous Intelligence for Dem Dummies. Newscum uses it for determining the next fish species to protect by redirecting an overabundance of stream water and allowing cities to burn to the ground without water in the fire hydrants.
The Lompoc Valley Republicans will be holding our monthly membership meeting/luncheon on January 24 @ 11:00 am at The Mission Club at 4300 Clubhouse Road, Lompoc.
We will be showing President Trump’s swearing in ceremony on a loop. We will toast the new year, our new president, and the Lompoc Valley Republicans.
Our Guest Speaker will be Steve Bridge, newly elected Lompoc City Council Member.
Lunch will include Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy, Vegetable, Drink and Dessert.
The price for lunch is $20.00 and reservations are required. Please RSVP to Jerri Thiel at 805-291-2520 by Sunday, January 19.
The further a society drifts from the truth the more it will hate those who speak it.
How alarmingly accurate this G Orwell statement has become.
Trump is an idiot. Only he will prove how un-intelligent he actually is. He is creating the excited states. He mistakes noise for activity.
To annex canada, panama and greenland. WTF? Aren't they our allies? Why threaten them, even before your in the office?
Has he noted Canadian planes are helping fight the LA fires?
As to Panama, Hutchinson Whampoa Li Ka-shing’s ownership of two of the seven Panama ports, is hardly an ability to set the price point for canal traffic. And there are all the ports on the west coast that would dock, ship and rail the containers to the east coast. Current volume through the Long Beach/Los Angeles Ports is five times more than the traffic through the so-called China ports in Panama. At an average value of about $75,000 per TEU, the annual volume into these leading US ports is worth about $1.5 trillion.
As to Greenland helping security and all those Russian and Chinese ships, so many, so many. The easiest way to track them is to detect the radar transmissions of each ship by satelite. Oh wait this is already happening and has been very succesful by the security/intelligence services for many years.
The Donald also promised today that “big beautiful tariffs” would be coming to a shopping mall near you right soon. While he keeps changing the number, a 20% across-the- board tariff has been promised repeatedly. If applied to just the in-coming Long Beach/Los Angeles traffic, therefore, the Tariff Man’s charge to the US economy would be $300 billion per year.
For crying out loud, presidents don’t create jobs—capitalists and businessmen do. And while most presidents are unwilling to give the free market its due, the egomaniacal poseur otherwise known as Donald Trump was especially eager to hog the credit.
Except, except—there was actually no credit to boast about. There were 145,400,000 NFP jobs in December 2016 and just 142,475,000 in December 2020. The Donald’s tenure, therefore, encompasses the only presidential term when private payrolls in the US economy actually shrank—and by 3 million jobs. Well, at least since Herbert Hoover!
The economic growth rate during Obama’s second term wasn’t anything to write home about, either. But it still computed to 2.18% per annum—a rate 40% higher than that on the Donald’s watch.
We are in for a very bumpy ride and little of it will be good for the people of America.
Daniel, your points are spot on and thank you for them. And don't be dissuaded from speaking the truth to this little MAGA circle jerk (aka, The Santa Barbara Current), they will learn soon enough that they've been fleeced by their self-aggrandizing Liar-in-Chief.
Big Government unions are feeling very threatened today, as they should finally. The tag teams are out. Their days of ripping off tax payers is over. Thanks for sharing, RJ
I read this article by Mr Fish Titled "Patriot Party Time" and I quote
from same "A Call for a Patriotic Flash Mob" .... "He also said never call it a “parade” or “flash mob,” the protected word is “march.” I suppose for that matter better call it a MLK Jr Day March. The more he talked, the more I could see things were getting problematic."
I have a new Title "Flash Fires Burning Down LA and Thier Corrupt Politicians"
The THREATS are before you all but until that THREAT personally affects you, no one will lift
a finger .................... Sound Familiar? See weblinks as LA Burns Down ..............
As usual, Pat nails it. And the advice on where our fellow Patriots will be rings true....they too want to WATCH as we get our America back! God be with President Trump and VP Vance, keep them safe from harm.
Ms. Fish, I’m sorry you won’t get your “march”, but I have one question for you. Every time you mentioned the Charros you made it a point to say they were legal. Why?
Hey Pat, I wrote a letter to the Ed at Noozhawk this last week, also made a comment on SBsiteline saying things about State street. I think we agree on that.
We don't need to build a wall: we merely need to go back to the days when the U.S. government stopped handing out free money and services to anyone who came into this country, even if illegally.
Wonderful idea Pat, but I can just imagine the city hassle trying to shut down State St. with a March, Parade, Flash Mob or whatever, especially on Trumpy Day! Why not instead try to organize a parade featuring dolled-up cars with freedom banners, flags, music etc.? We could slowly cruise down State then circle back and do it again!
I can’t wait for Trump Day! Finally! Someone taking the Bull by the Balls and telling the whole world to Fu*k Off! He can’t be aggressive or belligerent enough for me after wimp Biden paying, then kissing, everybody’s butt hoping to appease the head moron’s around the world.
S.2. Take it up with Biden who shoved experimental shots into everyone's arms. See if you can get Biden to set things straight, before he blanket pardons Fauci. Time is running out.
Let's hear your comment on Biden's allowing immigrants into the country that are killing U.S. citizens. I know, no problem if Biden kills people from his actions, it's only a problem if someone else does.
What a shame S.2. You never watched the recent Tucker Carlson-Billy Bush interview. It would have given you material to work with. Instead your rubber stamp complaints just ran out of red ink.
Tucker Carlson is an imbecile, plain and simple. And no I haven’t watched the interview between him and Billy Bush yet so don’t try and push that on me again. I know you’ll have some sort of hoity-toity response but go ahead. I said what I said about Tucker Carlson, the Russian mouthpiece.
JL, I tried the link which took me to Redstate publishing, about the debt of gratitude. Something about an echo chamber, but they wanted money to access the whole article. I’m not wasting any money, no matter how small on Carlson. I tried Facebook and Google and they all wanna be paid, no way I’m not paying to hear or read anything Tucker Carlson has to say. I tried, sorry.
Danged capitalists. Imagine expected to get paid for content. Beats writing just for the highest bidders instead. But whatever Thank you for at least trying. You efforts are appreciated.
JL, I really did try and all they showed was a picture of trump with carlson, and the headline about a deep gratitude, If you wanted to read the whole article you had to pay for the month or whatever it was. Kind of what you guys did here. I used to be able to comment for free then all of a sudden I could only comment if I paid. So I paid the price.
Good for you Pat, sharing your enthusiasm over our newly elected President. Maybe an inauguration party at Mesa or Timbers instead would work?…I’m down for that!

Great Ideas! Love your spirit Pat…
Parade we don't need no stink'n parades.
As Sneddon stated in the past she did not want to see any horses on State St.
As Harmon stated in the last 6 months she would like to tear up State St. and plant grass.
A college instructor and a attorney stating they could care less about history and the pride of a great event.
A mule? Go get'em......
Frankly I’m scared. Do we really want to be a nation? That’s threatening Canada, Denmark and Panama. Not to mention threatening the whole world with tariffs. Let alone promising to separate thousands of families that have been in this country for years.
Do all republicans really like the idea that President elect Trump hopes to erase his conviction BY A JURY. Sounds a lot like Netanyahu to me.
Scared? I'd be more concerned about the fires in Los Angeles. Now they scare me.
Don't be afraid of Trump taking the bull by the horns. He's a doer, unlike most politicians that can't think beyond filling their pockets with taxpayers' money. Standby and watch, you'll learn something about how a small percentage of the population operates. These are the people that get things done, not just talk about it.
vodka, airline, univerity, casinos all failed activities. So yes I agree he is an accomplished doer of failure
DH: too bad your TDS view is so narrow, trite and outdated. Stick around and get a new script. It is morning in America again. Thank goodness.
And he's laughing all the way to the bank. If you were a doer, you'll discover you win some and you lose some. But if you don't put your neck out there, you'll never find that out Daniel. Nothing stops Trump, he keeps on going. That's what you want in a President. Trump hangs around with the Doers.
Do we really want to live in a world of dubious comparisons and incorrect capitalizations?
Oh please Castleberg, enough with the hand wringing. It amazes me how lefty’s are enamored with jury decisions, unless it’s an all-white jury in the South. BTW, Canada has had a belly full of the failed, moronic policies of Justin Trudeau. Vive La Pierre Poilievre!

Pat, I enjoyed reading your post. You do what you like to do regardless of the obstacles you run into. You will be remembered for that.
The further a society drifts from the truth the more it will hate those who speak it.
How alarmingly accurate this G Orwell statement has become.

S. 2 returns with the usual "who cares" BS.
S.2. Take it up with Biden who shoved experimental shots into everyone's arms. See if you can get Biden to set things straight, before he blanket pardons Fauci. Time is running out.
You have four years to work on this, S2. Best wishes. May you find peace with your blind hatred.
Let's hear your comment on Biden's allowing immigrants into the country that are killing U.S. citizens. I know, no problem if Biden kills people from his actions, it's only a problem if someone else does.
No you don't care, S.2. Or else you would unstick the needle in your endless misinformation groove.
What a shame S.2. You never watched the recent Tucker Carlson-Billy Bush interview. It would have given you material to work with. Instead your rubber stamp complaints just ran out of red ink.
Tucker Carlson is an imbecile, plain and simple. And no I haven’t watched the interview between him and Billy Bush yet so don’t try and push that on me again. I know you’ll have some sort of hoity-toity response but go ahead. I said what I said about Tucker Carlson, the Russian mouthpiece.
