WhatFinger

Michael Oberndorf, RPA

The son of a German immigrant, I am an archaeologist by profession, with a BA from Metropolitan State College of Denver, and an MA from Leicester University, in England. Over the years, I have lived and worked all over the country, and traveled in Canada, Mexico, Central and South America, Europe, Australia, and Japan. I sincerely believe in the old saying, “America, love it or leave it.”

Never is a long time but we must never give in, NEVER surrender

 Never is a long time but we must never give in, NEVER surrender Last Wednesday, I officially retired as an archaeologist. I had done it for 27 years in both the public and private sector and had seen it change a lot. Most of what is done in the U.S. is called “cultural resource management” (CRM), which has little to do with real archaeology anymore. It’s been co-opted by CRM contract firms, and extreme preservationists – similar to extreme environmentalists, in that they are anti-capitalist/anti-development – who couldn’t give a flying hoo hah for the archaeology. They’re in it for the money and to further their leftist agenda. And archaeology in academia is a really bad joke, driven by monumental egos and Marxism.

Rabid Running Dogs

Rabid Running Dogs It becomes more and more obvious by the day that we are rapidly heading towards a second American civil war. As the leftists become a smaller and smaller minority, their frustration and desperation are driving them to more and more extreme positions, and more and more frequently, to violence of word and deed.

The 51st State: Denial

The 51st State: Denial Denial is not a river in Egypt. Denial is a psychological condition where the person or persons suffering from it refuse to acknowledge that a problem or reality exists. Alcoholics are really good at this. They don’t have a drinking problem. It’s the rest of the world that has the problem. But over the past 30 or 40 years, Americans of all sorts have entered into what amounts to a state of national denial.

Like a Ton of Bricks

Like a Ton of Bricks The revelations of what the Democrats and their running dog bureaucrats in various parts of the federal government have been up to over the last couple of years are appalling, but, unfortunately, not in the least surprising.

Deep Destruction by the Enemies Within

Deep Destruction by the Enemies Within The phony hue-and-cry from the disloyal Democrat Party, that Trump and the Republicans are out to smear and besmirch the ever-so-pristine FBI is just the latest in their massive cover-up of criminal corruption of our government that has been going on since at least the 1990s.

Time to define “The Press”

Time to define The Press Language, unless closely defined, is a fluid thing, open to myriad interpretations of individual words by individual people. Lawyers are perhaps the worst offenders when it comes to taking words and twisting them to have a meaning never intended by the author of a particular sentence.

Fake Fire and Fury

Fake Fire and Fury The leftist propaganda machine has hit an absolute new low with Fire and Fury, the supposed “exposé” of the Trump White House. It appears to be nothing but malicious, libelous lies, totally made up, that try to undermine our legally and duly elected President, and to portray Donald Trump as something that no human being could possibly be.

Enemies Domestic

Enemies Domestic A whole lot of us Deplorables, who had the unmitigated temerity to vote for the interloper, Donald Trump, have served in capacities which required us to take an oath to uphold the Constitution and protect it not only from foreign enemies, but domestic ones as well.

Are They Insane, or Just Stupid?

I go through periods, particularly during election campaigns, when I stop talking and just listen to what others in the media, left and right, are saying, and to what the public reaction to their “conventional wisdom” is. This time around, I am appalled, though hardly surprised, at what I’ve heard.

Way Over the Line

When are Americans, aka, We, the People, going to draw a red line in the sand for the Liar-in-Chief, the Fraud in the Rainbow House, the Lead-From-Behind taqiyyah Muslim and his apologists? How often are we going to sit quietly while he covers up for Muslim terrorists who savagely murder innocent Americans? How many more times must we allow him to imply that we are bigots for seeing Islam for what it is: a political/judicial system known as Shariah that uses “religion” to get submission by its followers, that is spread by barbaric violence and savage threats?

Heads - they win; tails - we lose

For over 20 years now, many conservatives have asserted that there is no difference between the two parties, that the Republicans and the Democrats are two sides of the same coin. Michael Reagan said one day on his radio show back in the mid-1990s that the difference between Republicans and Democrats is that it takes a Republican about three weeks longer to become a communist.

Silent coup by radical Marxists, neo-fascists, and self-serving con men

It seems as if it's at least once a week over the past seven years that one conservative columnist or another, and often several, lists the crimes and blundering of Obama and his administration. Everything these radicals have done has served to undermine the Constitution, the Rule of Law, our traditional culture, Christianity, our economy, our sovereignty, and our national security. Had they been white conservatives, any one of these actions would have gotten them, a) impeached; b) investigated by a Special Prosecutor; c) indicted; or, at the least, d) driven to resign. But since We, the People no longer have any real representation in Washington, none of this has occurred.

America's tradition of a freedom-loving armed citizenry

Traditionally – and I use this term, even though tradition has become a dirty word to the left – traditionally, when your economy is going south on you, or there is political unrest at home that threatens to remove you from power, traditionally, those in power start a war. We have seen this happen time and time again throughout history, all over the world. We are very likely to see it again. Soon.

No More Doubt

If there were any conservatives out there who were still in doubt about the Republican Party Misleadership's war on conservatives, a doubtful thing in itself, the dog-and-pony show being put on to replace John Boehner (D-Ohio) as Speaker of the House should have eliminated said doubts for once and for all. This farce has been, without a doubt, one of the most pathetic displays of “the voters be damned” politics seen since they approved ObozoCare. If it were a 1950s teevee show, doubtless it would have been called Worn Out Hacks on Parade. More of “Ladies and Gentlemen, the Revolution is over, but so as not to inconvenience anyone, nothing has been changed.”

China?

I have been spending time in Hong Kong this past year, and recently took a short trip into China proper. Several things struck me as being not at all what I expected, in both places. Not surprising, though, given the Ministry of Propaganda, aka, the “mainstream” media, filtering of what we are allowed to hear about. The skewed, leftist-agenda driven misinformation and downright lies that they spew out daily rarely paint a picture of what the world is actually like. Thus, I thought I would share some of my personal observations, that if skewed, are skewed in the direction of proudly-American patriotic conservatism.

The Revolution is Over

News flash from the gummint and the Republican Party Establishment (aka, the Misleadership): “Ladies and gentlemen, the Revolution is over, and so as not to inconvenience anyone, nothing has been changed.” And so it would seem.

Stranger Than Fiction

Hong Kong-It's been a while since I've commented on the Kafkaesque dreamscape that life has degenerated into of late. This happens occasionally, when it seems things can't get any weirder, but they do. I drop back and watch, waiting to see if anybody does anything to make things better. Invariably, they never do.

Millies

Millenials -- people born between 1980 and 2000 -- have become a hot topic for politicos, economists, marketers, the "mainstream" media (read: Leftist Democrat Propaganda Machine) and a host of others in recent months. It's estimated that there are about 80 million of these Millies in the U.S., a pretty hefty demographic comprising about a third of our population. Though the 2016 elections are nearly a year-and-a-half away, this significant bloc of potential voters is being looked at with increasing interest -- more like with drooling jowls - by politicians of all stripes. And what, you might ask, have they found out?
