Costs For Presidential Inauguration Is Obscene And Wasteful

Washington, DC—Our politicians are afraid so they want a giant security force to protect them during the week Barack Obama is sworn in. Cops from all over the country are being flown in to assist various local police in the effort.

Officials are claiming a half-billion will show up to celebrate this time. My question is, why invite such a mess? Obama can be sworn in some other venue like an underground bunker. We have the ability to broadcast video over television and the Internet.

There is no magic about taking an oath of office as millions of soldiers, cops and politicians have done it. There’s no need to make this such a big deal especially when government is virtually bankrupt. Is any American President’s inauguration worthy of an outdoor spectacle costing well into the tens of millions of dollars?

I can’t imagine so many people are willing to stand for hours out in the cold to watch anyone doing anything especially when they are not going to be close enough to see anything anyway. They undoubtedly will have large TV screens everywhere which begs the question, why not watch TV at home instead?

As for this inauguration, if I can’t get close enough to Obama to throw my shoes at him, I ain’t goin'.

Gutsy Lady Foils Carjacker

Berkley, CA—Of all places to see someone refuse to be a victim of violent crime. There must be something really bad in the water people drink in the Bay Area. The pacifist attitude along with people who long for victimization makes this story unusual.

Harmony Gates is not your typical Bay Area Resident, When a carjacker got into her van - she said she grabbed his gun while it was still in his hand and said, "I'm gonna blow your balls off."

Next time I hope this lady has a loaded large caliber handgun and the training to use it.

Why America is Doomed

This country was founded on a simple but ingenious plan. Minimal taxation provided for the needs of government, national defense and our basic infrastructure. Along the way, 12 years of free education was provided to every man, woman and child.

Our government was never intended to be a medical, charity or welfare provider. There was a “temporary” income tax to fund World War I that never went away. Politicians and their bureaucrats simply used American’s hard earned money like a narcotic and their habit would only increase in its thrust and hunger.

America became a welfare state not only taking care of Americans but every trespasser that could violate our borders. Our income tax system for collecting money also became a welfare system with every bogus kind of tax credits for those who were under or unemployed. A Social Security system was created for the retirement of the elderly. Instead it became a welfare program for narcotic addicts, drunks and malingerers.

Guess what folks? The bill is due and they have squeezed the very life blood out of Americans and they still want more!

The Liberal Governors are now demanding a $ trillion-dollar bailout behind all the failed banks, investment houses, auto makers and a never ending list of groups with their hands out.

As California hands out IOUs instead of tax refuund checks I’m wondering if I can use those IOUs as a form of payment for all the other taxes I’m required to pay? Can I use those IOUs for my mortgage lender, grocery store or dentist? I did not think so. Government simply refuses to downsize no matter what.

We used to have part-time legislators at the state and federal level but now they are all full time money wasters. I don’t have a clue what’s coming aside from a much weaker America and the welfare state will collapse. That makes it clear, that skyrocketing crime rates along with major disturbances are on the way.

Our founding fathers had it right the first time and if we are going to survive as a country we must return to our American roots. I don’t think we will do that so I can’t help but believe the American experiment is over. Say goodbye to freedom, prosperity and safety.

Decades of Gun Bans Have Never Brought Reduced Murder Rates

Chicago, New York and Washington, DC have seen yet another spike in their murder rates for 2008. All of these cities have virtual bans on handgun possession which has been only effective in one area, outlawing self-defense.

Every large city in America has three things in common, fanatical gun control laws, over-abundant violent crime and government run by Liberal politicians.

On the contrary, the further you are from those big cities the safer you are. Nearly every rural area of America has reasonable gun rights, low violent crime rates and government run by Conservative politicians.

Okay all you gun rights hating Liberals tell me the benefits, any benefits of the way gun bans help New York, Chicago and Washington, DC.

Fitzgerald Unveils Coming Attractions For Blagogate

Chicago, IL—Suggesting multiple defendants and giving out five pages of information the U.S. Attorney’s motion is revealing. This was necessary to justify a request for an additional 90 days to bring an indictment against the embattled Governor.

Attached to this motion, but filed under seal are additional pages of information to further rationalize the request for more time.

My Kind Of Show And Tell School Project

It was God, guns and guts that made this country safe, free and prosperous. Unfortunately too many Americans have no, training, tools or even the will for survival. Freedom is insured only by a willingness and ability to fight for it.

I don’t know how many political and genocidal holocausts it takes to educate humans to respect the fear, flight or fight instincts given to us by our creator.

I don’t think this little girl will ever be standing in a line of people being sent off to a concentration camp or some killing field.

This Cub Reporter Is Beyond Cute

Broadcaster, Damon Weaver is only ten years-old. He has a simple request to interview President-elect Barack Obama. They had the gaul to turn down his request for press credentials!

Of course I’d like to interview Barack Obama too. I know Obama would not like me or my questions for him.

Bolshevik politics aside this cub reporter is not working on a hit piece like I would and I don’t think Obama has a choice in the matter now.

This video should make you smile.

Facing the New Year.

We are entering what may be the bleakest year in many decades. Jobs are evaporating along with income to keep the economy moving.

No experts have brought out some sure fire fix to reverse what’s happening. That is a really bad sign.

Our weak economy is sure to invite aggression from the enemies of freedom and liberty including those within our own government. I don’t expect real relief. We may see a period of political unrest and crime that our government is unable to control. These are the same kinds of problems that may enable someone like Germany’s Adolf Hitler to take total control of our lives.

Americans have had it soft and easy for a very long time. Most are just not prepared to deal with what may be ahead. The sight of millions of Americans dealing with food shortages, panic, and disruption in the flow of pensions and those routine government benefits will be horrific to say the least.

The normal evolution of all government in history takes them trough phases with serious population control. With history as a reliable teacher we are all in trouble. Be ready to protect yourselves, family and friends.

To my visitors I wish you all a safe, healthy and Happy New Year.

Somebody Give Me A Reason To Buy An America Car…

Los Angeles, CA—I’m trying to decide on a new car. I’m looking at Toyota and Volkswagen.

I’m afraid that if there is any bankruptcy of the manufacture of my car the service warranty would become trash. Also I don’t want to do business with a nationalized carmaker. That’s even more un-American than buying a foreign car.

I guess I will be ultimately influenced by a real bargain price. All things being equal the Japs will get my cash.

Blago Will Fill Senate Seat And They Can’t Stop Him!

Springfield, IL—I was wondering just when this would happen. Rod Blagojevich is still the governor and his power has not been interrupted so he will do exactly what the law allows.

The surprise is he is appointing a somewhat Conservative, old guard Chicago Democrat to the seat. The lucky winner is former state Comptroller and Attorney General, Roland Burris.

My own experience with Burris is that he has class and comes from the George W. Dunne, Richard J. Daley side of the party instead of the ultra Left Wing. Burris is however a reliable team player who has avoided scandal. For a Democrat he’s not a bad choice.

Blagojevich is having too much fun thumbing his nose at Barack Obama’s people and the US Attorney. I’m convinced this appointment is unstoppable. The downside for Burris is he may suffer the Blagojevich taint in the long run.

Currently Burris is on the roster of the Chicago law firm, Gonzalez Saggio & Harlan LLP.

Of course if Illinois held an Election right now a Republican would win that seat.

My wife, Fiancé Is Missing Or Murdered

Los Angeles, CA—That happens a lot in a country of 300 million people. Of course police are going to zero in on me as a suspect just because that’s where these investigations always begin and too often end. You see we only kill the ones we love.

The police do their job investigating. Soon the media responds and they just love these stories. The legions of busybody crime buffs are glued to their TV sets as they transfer all of their failed relationships and emotional baggage into wild theories and excitement.

The first public reactions are showcased in comments that are usually connected to the visible reaction of the male side of this couple. No matter what these hapless potential suspects do the armchair detectives will characterize it as cold, unfeeling and suspicious. They never once forgive a fellow who does not want to share emotions in public. Don’t let the guy get caught on camera with a smile during a light hearted moment or a lynch mob will show up at his door.

Our police and justice system can work just fine without the interference and emotional response from the handwringing morons. They seem so worried about the celebrity victim of the week

The media has simply found a perceived need and filled it. There is a never ending supply of lowbrow slugs with way too much time on their hands that live for that garbage. Do they even have money to buy what the advertisers are selling? Somehow I don’t think so.

There Will Be No Impeachment Over Blogogate.

Springfield, IL—The Barack Obama Whitewash is in full swing and US Attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald is currently in the Tank for the President-elect. My sources in Chicago claim Fitzgerald is now looking out for Obama’s interests. The deal has already been made.

Now Fitzgerald has made quite a mess and before it’s all over whistleblowers within his own office may spill the beans. The only way out is for a real sweetheart deal where Governor Rod Blagojevich, shuts up, resigns and escapes prison. No hearings, no trials and no risk of exposing Obama or his minions to sunshine.

The lawyers for Tony Rezko are also in on this deal making that’s not about cooperating with testimony but silence.

Defense lawyer Ed Genson already knows that Fitzgerald does not want the information Blagojevich can provide about major corruption that extends straight to Obama and several members of his team. The goal is to discredit and silence Blagojevich while getting him out of the way.

Illinois cannot impeach anyone without affording them Due Process under our Fifth Amendment. That means Blagojevich has the absolute right to subpoena witnesses, the right to confront and cross-examine accusers. Blagojevich also has the right to all related e-mails; phone records reports prior to any hearing. Despite posturing to the contrary they know that.

Nobody goes to jail and they all will live happily ever after…

Bad Santa Mass Murder Case Has A Familiar Ring

Click on poster to enlarge it.

Scottsdale, AZ—It was in April of 2001 there was another strange case of domestic Arson/Murder involving a fireman with a pristine background. That suspect, Robert Fisher is still on the run today.

Had the Bad Santa killer, Bruce Jeffrey Pardo not been seriously burned he too may have been on the FBI Ten Most Wanted List.

Like Pardo nobody expected Fisher to engage in such serious mayhem.

KPNX-TV asked me how difficult for someone like Robert Fisher to hide in plain sight and this is what I told them…

Bad Santa’s Flame Thrower Is Simple To Make.

Here is our Bad Santa’s flame thrower recovered by Covina, CA police.

Covina, CA—When Bruce Jeffrey Pardo went after his ex-wife and her family dressed as Santa Claus he had a homemade flame thrower. Pardo used racing fuel that is much more volatile than gasoline. The Internet is full of videos put up by kids fooling around with these devices that make ordinary firearms seem lame.

You don't need to undergo a background check to get what you need to incinerate your own neighborhood.

These devices can cremate you and your entire family within seconds without the sound of gunshots. They can be assembled with simple items you can buy at your Home Depot. How will the gun Control lobby deal with these?

Why I don’t Trust US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald

Chicago, IL—What Patrick Fitzgerald has is golden, a way to implicate or clear Barack Obama of wrongdoing. Fitzgerald can name his own price for results favorable to Obama. Prosecutors sell out all the time and get away with it since prosecutors never indict other prosecutors.

Fitzgerald has already asked the Illinois Legislature not to issue subpoenas for the highest members of Obama’s team involved in Blagogate. The Democrats running the House Impeachment Committee of the Legislature called for impeachment while forgetting due process details that would potentially destroy their darling President-elect.

They are all desperate now to avoid that at all cost. You can’t impeach anyone with affording then due process so impeachment is going to be off the table at least for now.

Demanding Subpoenas was the right move by lawyer Ed Genson. His plan has seemed to have worked. Right now they are all in a stalemate.

Fitzgerald made it too easy for the controlling Democrats by saying subpoenas would hurt his investigation. I say that’s hogwash. The damage would come as the Obama staffers all declined to testify citing the Fifth Amendment. That would create an instant Constitutional crisis for Barack Obama and this country.

We need to deal with this mess and if it brings down a budding Whitehouse criminal conspiracy, so be it.

What Fitzgerald needs to win the golden parachute of his life is a surgical strike that only takes down Rod Blagojevich and any other troublesome Democrats while making a saint out of Obama.

The real problem will be Rod Blagojevich himself who won’t stand to be a patsy and simply fall on his sword. I place Blagojevich at the very top of the Dead Pool if he continues to refuse to cooperate.

If this investigation somehow continues without shenanigans Obama is sure to be incriminated for the business as usual of Chicago’s criminal Democratic Organization.

If on the other hand Fitzgerald is on the Square and takes down this entire criminal cabal he could be elected President himself.

I Lost Yet Another Remarkable Friend…

Paradise Valley, AZ—When I wanted to audition for my first acting role in the play, One Flew over The Cuckoo’s Nest for A Scottsdale theater I could not find a copy of the script anywhere. I just didn’t know where to look. Frustrated, I decided to try and find the author. I am, after all a private investigator.

The author of that great play was a man named Dale Wasserman. I was happy because with such an uncommon name he’d be easier to find than his script. I fully expected to find him in Los Angeles or New York. I was shocked to find him living only a few miles from my Phoenix home. I quickly obtained his unlisted telephone number and called him.

Dale turned out to be a delightful fellow who understood my difficulty and invited me over to pick up an extra copy of his script. Wow!

When I arrived Dale invited me into his large home office decorated in, “Man of LaMancha” motif. Yes, he wrote that huge international hit play too. Dale handed me a copy of the play and I could not resist asking him to autograph it for me. Dale suggested I read for Bromden, the Native American role.

I took the script home, studied it and came to the audition and read for it. I did not get the part. I did however get picked for the role of Dr. Spivey the psychiatrist. I went on to be in that play that sold out every night and was twice extended. I was hooked on acting.

Soon I was in Man of LaMancha too as a muleteer. After that, came more roles and membership in the, Screen Actor’s Guild, and later AFTRA. I have still paid more in dues than I ever made as an actor.

Dale later called me for a small business problem over some property he owned and I helped him in kind.

Dale offered to read the first script I wrote and then helped me by completely trashing it. He urged me to continue writing and confided in me that the royalty checks for his works have never stopped coming to his mailbox. His writing skills served him well. He put me in the right direction and you cannot buy that kind of help.

We became friends. Soon he invited me to audition for his play, A Walk In The Sky. How could I refuse? I went, I auditioned and was promptly rejected for that singing role.

I did however find a rare vintage photo of Dale’s friend, actor, Kirk Douglass, put it in a frame and gave it to Dale as a small present. Douglass was standing in front of the Broadway marquee where Cuckoo’s Nest was playing. Dale directed Douglass who created the role as the first R.P. McMurphy in the play. Douglass bought the rights and his son Michael produced the wildly successful movie that starred Jack Nicholson. Dale loved the present as he laughed and complained about Douglass being such a hard bargainer.

Dale had several Tony Awards in his home on display and chucked that they all came by UPS since he did not do Award shows. I think he enjoyed being a no show where others, more notable than him had to accept the awards on his behalf. Dale pulled that stunt nine times!

Dale told me he was a train hopping hobo as a youth. He never finished high school, came to Los Angeles started as a lighting assistant and wound up writing 100 or so published works. His first major film script was, The Vikings that starred Kirk Douglass, Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh.

Dale was a mentor who taught me about the craft of screen writing. Without Dale’s influence there would be no script for Come Friday, written by me to tell the great story of Chicago policewoman Ann Leybourne.

It was congestive heart failure that took this giant of a man who was 94 years-old. Wasserman is survived by Martha Nelly Garza, his wife of 30 years.

See video of Dale in his home office here.

Retail Business Tank While On Line Sales Soar

Los Angeles, CA—America’s retail establishments are in deep trouble. I can understand why in places like Chicago and Los Angeles that insist on taxing retail customers to death.

Amazon.com sales have soared to the best year ever with a 17% boost in 2008. It’s really simple the local jurisdictions need to end their extortion that the public can’t afford.

Lowering sales taxes encourages more not less sales. Chicago has done their best to run every business out of town. Simple math says you can tax at a rate of 100% but 100% of nothing is nothing. Local jurisdictions need to compete because people can drive to places with lower tax rates or shop on line.

Taxation is out of control in America along with wasteful government spending. Productivity must be rewarded and not punished or we won’t have anything to produce. Fewer goods are made and sold causes our jobs to hemorrhage. The answer by our government is still more extortion.

Parking a car in Chicago costs more than some people pay to rent apartments. How is that good for any business? Please tell me who is dumb enough to want to shop or work in a city with no place to park? Who wants to run a business where they, their customers and workers can’t afford to park?

Chicago’s politicians demand tax money for unneeded public works projects to generate pay to play extortion. This vicious cycle needs to end. Since they won’t end pay to play perhaps it’s time to stop paying extortionists. Maybe we should simply kill them instead? Otherwise it will only get worse.

Electing a politician does not grant him or government a license to tax citizens unreasonably. Perhaps politician's terms can be shortened with a hangman's noose. We have done that before and we can do that again.

Santa Maniac Questions remain

Covina, CA—The pristine background of the Santa Claus Killer now known as, 45-year-old Bruce Jeffrey Pardo provides no clue for his deadly commando assault on his ex-wife and her family.

Pardo was a well-educated engineer who regularly attended a Catholic church, lived in a nice home, had friends and a faithful dog. People who knew Pardo never saw a hint of the anger and desperation leading to the unleashed terror.

Pardo did not need to use his guns since his homemade racing fuel fed flame thrower quickly reduced the home he attacked and people inside to mere ashes. Police say that Pardo himself suffered third-degree burns from the back-blast. His Santa suit actually melted with his skin.

Divorce is difficult for anyone and being a Catholic carries addition problems because the church does not accept divorce. There was no fight over children but the wife got the dog in the settlement and that is no small loss.

Pardo did lose his job but was living the American dream and would soon find new employment.

This event is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. This is beyond rare. I’ve seen lots of senseless violence but in the vast majority of cases there are signs and signals. When people hurt they complain and if the stress becomes too severe for them they act out in far less destructive ways.

We will have to wait for two things, a total drug screen and a psychiatric autopsy on Pardo. I wonder what if anything could be done that would have allowed this fellow to move on with his life and perhaps even find a new and more desirable wife then the one who left him? What cause a rational and successful man to this kind of ending?

We know so little about insanity and the actual culpability some killers. I believe that nobody deserved to be in this holocaust including Pardo himself.

New Years and Gunfire

Celebratory gunfire at New Years is a tradition worldwide. People fire guns into the air simply to make noise. Is this dangerous? It could be. This can be a big problem when the shooters are also drinkers. Accidents can always happen around loaded guns, cars, boats trains, airplanes and alcohol increases that possibility.

The danger to people outside if the immediate vicinity is way overrated. If the gun is discharged in a steep angle to the ground the bullet falls to earth at terminal velocity and that speed is determined by weight. Unless that fired bullet lands on a crowd hitting a person is incredible rare. If the bullet hits someone at terminal velocity the likelihood of injury is small.

Shooting into the air is stupid, wasteful and frightens people. To say its bad for gun owner’s public relations for is an understatement. The discharge a gun around people who are without ear protection could permanently damage hearing. Why do that to your friends and family?

Laws have been passed in nearly every city of any size prohibit this activity. Don’t do this and discourage your friends from this activity. There are still plenty of places were shooting is reasonable and expected.

This kind of behavior is acceptable only by ignorant jerks. The most dangerous flying object on New Year’s should be a Champaign cork.

K-9 Kriminal’s Kaper Kaught On Kamera!

Murray, UT--Surveillance cameras never sleep! When a larcenous mutt hungered for a John Wayne sized rawhide chew he knew just where to go. He slipped into his local supermarket went directly to the correct isle and stole what he wanted.

An alert store manager tried to stop the Krooked K-9 during his daring escape but did not want to lose a pinky or two in the process. I think this k-9 Kaper will hit America’s Most Wanted with a big reward.
