HAPPY NEW YEAR?

I have no idea if anyone actually reads the articles I write as virtually no one appears willing to send me feedback. My friend, Freddie “Tadpole” Keel, encouraged me to write and initially set up my WordPress site and taught me how to use it. Preparing to create this posting I as more than surprised to see that I published my first article on September 17, 2010, over 7 years ago. My next surprise was to see that I have published 1128 articles, so far.

My only disappointment is that over those seven years I have received only 1141 comments. Writing is usually a way for people to make a living. For me it has always been a way to share my thoughts, beliefs and knowledge gained in my 47 year career. Starting at seventeen when I joined the Navy, 27 years, 25 in management for Lockheed, 5 years in executive management for Halliburton and 11 years in business for myself. One of my most rewarding task was writing Quality Standard Q-1, including committee structure and guidance procedures for the American Petroleum Institute. I finished my Masters degree at 47. I am a retired Registered Professional Engineer, Member of Mensa, Intertel, ASME, SPE, AQC,and a life member of the PTA.

I had my first international experience at age 28 and when I retired I had worked in 23 different countries and 49 states. I have visited in 32 countries. One unusual thing is the country I was in 33 times, Japan, was a country where I never worked a day. I changed planes in Tokyo and never set foot outside the airport flying to and from other Asian countries. The foreign countries I spent the most time in were Indonesia, Singapore, Denmark, Mexico and Canada.

I started both alone and with partners nine different companies in the US, Canada and Singapore. One thing I found interesting was the help from government agencies in starting businesses in Canada and Singapore. They helped at every step including financial with government loans.

In the United States any form of Government help to start a small business is nonexistent or hidden.

I have enjoyed 24 years of retirement and 87 years of life. The primary reason I am still alive is the love of my life, Norma, who has been my wife, partner, motivator and Judge for 57 years. My mind has not regressed but physically from my knees down I feel 97, I have seven children and counting spouses i currently have 46 in my family of grandchildren, great grandchildren and my first great great grandchild. This group has 5 Doctors, 4 Lawyers (3 too many), 5 educators, a CPA, Petroleum Engineer, Aerospace Manager, three Nurses, 6 now in college and 2 less than 6 months old. Now let me finish this walk through my life and ask everyone who reads this to tell me about your life and I will write articles about some who read my work. If family and friends were money I would be the richest man on earth. Please respond.

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR

SIC’EM PRESIDENT TRUMP!

Am I the only American that feels this way?

It is so refreshing to watch a born leader wade into Washington and make a difference. Congress, Federal Judges, too many bureaucrats, lobbyist, the national media and the seemingly endless number of non-profit tax evading groups are being exposed as “Elite” Americans. I can remember when they were no registered lobbyist in Washington and today there must be approaching 10,000. They represent every other country on Earth and to combine all of these paid individuals with a name I shall use “Bloodsuckers”. I wish I knew exactly how many ex-military, ex-Congressmen, ex-government bureaucrats and spy’s we have living off of so much money that would likely pay off the National Debt? If we had a media that cared about the people these costs would be published every day like the stock market averages. 

The tax evading pressure groups and “Bloodsuckers” have nothing but self interest for so many different different interest it would take a year just to list them all. The worst of the lot have far too much money to be used to buy votes in Congress. It must take hundreds of Congressional aides to be bribed just to get them access to the 535 “Super Elites” we call Senators or Representatives. Not all of these power brokers reside in Washington so each of these 535 must have offices in their home State district to listen to the folks and again the “Bloodsuckers” also work each of these District offices. I live in District #1 in Texas and there appears to be offices in several towns in Deep East Texas.

It would be interesting to see exactly how many people are employed by the 535 Congresspersons by District and State? Asking for the costs would be impossible.

It would be nice to know exactly how much it Costs to fund Congress each year?

I wonder how many people are necessary to operate the Supreme Court? They only function a few months out of each year. What does it costs? What do the people do the rest of the year? 

Surely someone knows exactly how many automobiles and airplanes are owned by the Federal government? By the time you found out the number would be useless.

Of the cajillion Federal Judges scattered across America poses other questions? Do they all have the same exact budgets. What does the Judiciary costs the taxpayers? I would make these “elites” work 9-5 every day like Joe “Six Pack”.

It is amazing in this day of face to face communications that the Senate vote on Obamacare had to be delayed until John McCain, “Judas of Arizona” could be released from the hospital. Then he was probably flown by air ambulance to the Capitol to vote to keep Obamacare he has been screaming to scrap for 8 years. Anyone who believes that he was not bought off, probably by George Soros, is insane. Just think if he had stayed in the hospital there would have been a tie vote and the Vice President could have broken the tie. We would be months ahead of agreeing to a health care system that did not reward Insurance companies and no telling how many “Bloodsuckers” across the land. Obamacare was great for the “Welfare Army” who refuse to plant lettuce and mow Congresspersons lawns. It was killing small businesses nation wide and no one cared. Whoops Donald Trump cared even if the Republicans in Congress sunk the ship.

Why do we still have to fly to Washington to vote. A small office in a strip mall could calculate Congressional votes with videotape form the 535 offices in each district and State. The US Capitol could be made into a historical museum like the other historical places in Washington DC. If Congress used the offices in each State it would drive the “Bloodsuckers” nuts and increase their travel costs to offset the Congressional travel. Can you imagine just how many Government employees would be free to find a legitimate job somewhere away from DC. Washington could return to a nice place without all of the gun-toting thieves and robbers who could move back to Chicago.

All of the Government employees displaced could work in the industrial sector that will be increased by President Trump and the “Lions of Industry” who shipped the millions of jobs to China, Mexico and other tax havens worldwide. Just taking the regulations off of the energy sector will make millions of jobs for Americans instead of foreign placements to serve the computer industry. Why don’t we educated Americans to fill these high paying jobs?

I could set here for the next year and never stop asking these questions but no one would likely read something 1,000,000,000 words long. In truth I doubt ten people will read this article that is less than 800 words. I’ll keep writing. How long????  C Brewer

WILL AMERICANS EVER STAND UP FOR AMERICA AGAIN?

My friend and often guest writer, Ron Jenkins, sent me the following history lesson and challenge. I have altered it to fit how my own grandfather, father and how I fit the basic outline. I did make some minor changes and I deeply admire the unknown author. This may have been around for some time but it is the first time it came my way.

This hit me as a wake up call for Americans to stop, think, revue what is happening and please help Trump make America great again. When you add up the Americans who died or were maimed defending our freedoms over the last 100 years it is staggering. Thanks Ron and everyone please share this with every American they know who might help. C Brewer

WHAT A MESSAGE!

My Grandfather watched as his friends died in WWI and WWII.              

My Father watched as his friends died in WWI, WWII and Korea.                               

I watched as my friends fought and died in WWII.

I served in the US Navy and watched as my friends died in Korea.

I watched as our friends died in Vietnam, I also watched my brother who served two tours and died at 55 because of the way the military was treated by other Americans when they came home.

I watched as our friends and their children both fought & died in Desert Storm.

I watched & waited while our friends & children fought and died in Iraq.     

None of them fought for or died for the Mexican Flag or any other foreign flag.          

Everyone fought for and died for the US flag.

In Texas, a student raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole; another student took it down.

Guess who was expelled… The kid who took it down!!!

Kids in high school in California were sent home on Cinco de Mayo because they wore T-shirts with  the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough!!!               

The message below needs to be viewed by every American;

And every American needs to stand up for America!!!

We’ve bent  over to appease the America-haters long enough.

I’m taking a stand, will you?

I’m standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting in wars for this country, and for the U.S. Flag who can’t stand up.

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.            

Let me make this perfectly clear!!!

FELLOW AMERICANS THIS IS OUR COUNTRY!!!

And, my making these statements DOES NOT Mean I’m against immigration!!!

WE WELCOME NEWCOMERS TO OUR COUNTRY, IF THEY COME LEGALLY!

To come through legally, THEY MUST:  

  1.  Get a sponsor!
  2.  Get a place to lay your head!
  3.  Get a job!
  4. Live By OUR Rules!
  5. Pay YOUR Taxes!

AND

  1. Learn the  LANGUAGE like immigrants have in the past!!!

  AND

  1.  Please don’t demand that we hand over our lifetime Savings of Social Security Funds to you.             

                                                                              AMERICANS STOP giving away YOUR  RIGHTS ???

We’ve gone so far the other way.

We’ve bent over backwards not to offend anyone…

But it seems no one cares about the AMERICAN CITIZEN being offended!!!

WAKE UP AMERICANS                   ANON

AMERICA-NO WONDER WE ARE BROKE!

My friend, Ron Jenkins, shared this with me and it makes me sick. When Congress and the executive branch of our government sit on their political butts and allow this travesty to drain the treasury all legal citizens need to rebel. Can you even imagine how many thousands of hospitals can be this bad or worse. If any citizen reads this and approves of this fiasco they are the problem. No wonder we are 20 trillion dollars in debt. I can find nothing to show that Congress even cares. Trump needs to drain the swamp called Congress and demand that the people be able to vote for term limits. Sick!  C Brewer   

Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas,Texas is a fairly famous institution and for a variety of reasons:

  1. John F. Kennedy died there in 1963
  2. Lee Harvey Oswald died there shortly after
  3. Jack Ruby-who killed Lee Harvey Oswald, died there a few years later..by coincidence

“On the flip side, Parkland is also home to the second busiest maternity ward in the country with almost 16,000 new babies arriving each year. (That’s almost 44 per day—every day)

A recent patient survey indicated that 70 percent of the women who gave birth at Parkland in the first three months of 2006 were illegal immigrants.  That’s 11,200 anchor babies born every year just in Dallas.

According to the article, the hospital spent $70.7 million delivering 15,938 babies in 2004 but managed to end up with almost $8 million dollars in surplus funding. Medicaid kicked in $34.5 million, Dallas County taxpayers kicked in $31.3 million and the feds tossed in another $9.5 million.

The average patient in Parkland is maternity wards is 25 years old, married and giving birth to her second child.  She is also an illegal immigrant.  By law, pregnant women cannot be denied medical care based on their immigration status or ability to pay.

OK, fine.  That doesn’t mean they should receive better care than everyday, middle-class American citizens.  But at Parkland Hospital, they do.  ” Parkland Memorial Hospital has nine prenatal clinics.  NINE.

The Dallas Morning News article followed a Hispanic woman who was a patient at one of the clinics and pregnant with her third child—her previous two were also born at Parkland.  Her first two deliveries were free and! the Mexican native was grateful because it would have cost $200 to have them in Mexico.  This time, the hospital wants her to pay $10 per visit and $100 for the delivery but she was unsure if she could come up with the money.  Not that it matters, the hospital won’t turn her away.  (I wonder why they even bother asking at this point.)

“How long has this been going on?  What are the long-term affects?

Well, another subject of the article was born at Parkland in 1986 shortly after her mother entered the US illegally – now she is having her own child there as well  (That’s right, she’s technically a US citizen)

These women receive free prenatal care including medication, nutrition, birthing classes and child care classes.  They also get freebies such as car seats, bottles, diapers and formula.

Most of these things are available to American citizens as well but only for low-income applicants and even then, the red tape involved is almost insurmountable.

Because these women are illegal immigrants, they do not have to provide any sort of legitimate identification – no proof of income.  An American citizen would have to provide a social security number which would reveal their annual income – an illegal immigrant need only claim to be poor and the hospital must take them at their word.

“My husband is a pilot for the United States Navy (yes, he fought in Iraq ) and while the health care is good, we Navy wives don’t get any of these perks!  Car seats?  Diapers?  Not so much.  So my question is this: Does our public medical care system treat illegal immigrants better than American citizens?  Yes, it does!

As I mentioned, the care I have received is perfectly adequate but it’s bare bones, meat and potato medical care – not top of line.

Their (the illegals’) medical care is free – simply because they are illegal immigrants?  Once again, there is no way to verify their income.

Parkland Hospital offers indigent care to Dallas County residents who earn less than $40,000 per year.  (They also have to prove that they did not refuse health coverage at their current job.  Yeah, the ‘free’ care is not so easy for Americans.)

There are about 140 patients who received roughly $4 million dollars for un-reimbursed medical care.  As it turns out, they did not qualify for free treatment because they resided outside of Dallas County so the hospital is going to sue them!  Illegals get it all free!  But U. S citizens who live outside of Dallas County get sued!  How stupid is this?

As if that isn’t annoying enough, the illegal immigrant patients are actually complaining about hospital staff not speaking Spanish.  In this AP story, the author speaks with a woman who is upset that she had to translate comments from the hospital staff into Spanish for her husband.  The doctor was trying to explain the situation to the family and the mother was forced to translate for her husband who only spoke Spanish.  This was apparently a great injustice to her.

In an attempt to create a Spanish-speaking staff, Parkland Hospital is now providing incentives in the form of extra pay for applicants who speak Spanish.  Additionally, medical students at the University of Texas Southwestern for which Parkland Hospital is the training facility will now have a Spanish language requirement added to their already jammed-packed curriculum.  No other school in the country boasts such a ridiculous multi-semester (multicultural) requirement.

In the meantime, I have to end my column here.  I have to go buy a car seat.”

(Ed: Sorry for the length, but this needs wide circulation – particularly to our “employees” in Congress.)

Remember that this is only ONE hospital in Dallas, Texas.  There are many more hospitals across our country that al! so have to deal with this.

SO TRUMP IS RIGHT WANTING TO FOCUS ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

REMEMBER THEY ARE NOT ‘UNDOCUMENTED ‘ , THEY ARE  ILLEGAL  & MILKING AMERICA DRY……

PLEASE SEND THIS TO EVERY US CITIZEN AND LEGAL RESIDENT YOU KNOW.

ORGANIZED AMERICAN INSURRECTION!

FOLKS IT’S TIME TO STOP THIS FOOLISH MOVEMENT.

Watching the mayhem, destruction of property and threats to both the police and other innocent Americans on May Day made me sick. This increase in insurrection since the election of President Trump must be stopped.

These repeated and increased incidents are attempts to destroy the United States from within with money coming from somewhere. If nothing else, surely the FBI and the other intelligence agencies have the capability to ferret out who is funding these movements. On the surface these incidents do not appear to be connected but when they do become a nation wide movement it is obvious that some form of civil war is on the near term horizon. This  has to be stopped and now. These reports showing masked, hooded, thugs obviously being paid by someone to destroy property reminds me of newsreel pictures I watched in the 1930’s as a boy from Nazi Germany.

These methods are exactly how Hitler used Storm Troopers and young hoodlums to menace, injure, destroy property to control the people he had disarmed earlier. If we had a media that was not controlled by the same people who have probably hired these thugs this comparison would be front page news. Our media is controlled by people who appear to have plans to overthrow the Trump government as soon as possible.

Recent stories and Blog activity indicate that George Soros’, who is my age, was involved in the inhuman activity in Germany in the 1930’s. If these stories are factual then why are they ignored by the mainstream media?

It amazes me that currently most of this insane behavior only happens in States and cities where liberals control the power. How do the average freedom loving Americans of Portland Oregon and other cities where insurrection was shown on the news this week can sit by and allow these actions to happen once, much less far to often?

Even worse we watch the majority leadership of the State of California, including the master of waste, Governor Brown, go completely insane. I can’t believe the majority of the California voters have elected so many loons that are hell-bent on not only opposing Constitutional laws, they just ignore them.

California is not alone as the entire west coast, Illinois, New York and most of New England seem to be populated with Americans who are demanding we become a Socialists Democracy instead of a Republic. The use of paid Americans and mercenaries from Mexico and other Hispanic countries to disrupt anything is against the law. Sadly for the last eight years we had a President that not only flaunted the law, he actually encouraged lawlessness and he and his Muslim advisors are why we have these activities today.

If the actions of the cabal of czars Obama surrounded himself with were not treason, then the United States is doomed. Watching Obama smile knowing he did more damage to America than every enemy we have ever faced makes my blood boil. He and his entire army of hate filled advisers would be in prison now if our government was not as corrupt as the one in Venezuela today.

Our own Congress has become a cesspool of special interest puppets that march to the dollars of covert Americans people like Soro’s. Far too many members are so dumb they don’t even know how to get paid to screw up everything. They just oppose any or everything to get face time before the media that is just as rotten as they are.

I believe if he would tell the truth, Trump would agree that every word I have written is factual. I also believe that his theme of draining the Washington swamp is so much worse that he suspected, that he is afraid to tell the American public everything he has uncovered. One thing is certain, if no one can remove him from power he may not be able to drain the entire swamp. I still believe he will eventually put enough power brokers and Government employees, including Congress leeches, in prison that all but the really stupid members will leave on their own. How fast they run will depend on continued support of Main Street Americans that elected Trump as our “High Sheriff”.


The OK Corral has been moved to Washington DC and both the Republicans in Name Only (RINO’s) and the Democrat’s better shape up or ship out. This old term was warning enough when I was a young 17 year old boy in the US Navy. That was a long long time ago.    C Brewer

JUDGES AND BUREAUCRATS GONE MAD!

This is the first time I have never published two articles the same day but the idiotic action of two more Federal Judges to act as they were elected President  is too much. Our Nation is doomed when these two ill informed political quacks can ignore our written laws to enact political decisions that could cause danger to the people. These are the most dangerous decisions made openly by uninformed power hungry individuals in my lifetime. I may be the only American alive that is upset but I will speak my piece before these over paid tyrants rule that “Free Speech” is against their laws.

Congress authorizes a set number of Federal judge positions, or judgeship’s, for each court level. Since 1869, Congress has authorized 9 positions for the Supreme Court. As of 2007, it had authorized 179 court of appeals judgeship’s and 678 district court judgeship’s.

Folks we are now witnessing a takeover of the United States Government by a band of 886 supposedly impartial appointees approved to serve as Judges in a Court of Law. We are only allowed to have one President, one Vice President and 565 individuals who have been elected as Congresspersons.

In the past month we have witnessed a takeover of our Government by a group of unelected Progressive Judges who have no intelligence knowledge related to decisions they are making that have and could cause terror attacks by our enemies.

They are making safety decisions on request from Progressive Groups that usurp the Constitutional authority granted to the President based on intelligence that these Judges have no clearance to even know the dangers. This is like playing Russian Roulette with the Judge who is pointing the loaded gun at your and my head and with no danger of hitting him or herself. If they would play this game with the American Communists Lawyers Union (ACLU) who would even care.

We have a Supreme Court of the land that sits on its “Robed Asses” as does nothing to stop this idiotic waste of time, money and possible loss of innocent American lives. Worse we have a Congress that could act immediately to stop this desire for a Judge to get face time in the Media that promotes this nonsense.

Congress would take so long today to declare war with an enemy that they would still be arguing, they like to use the word debating, or would probably be on the golf course or the local bars when the enemy raised their flag over the US Capitol building.

We the people elected a new President to stop this nonsense. Those noted above along with the thousands of Government employees who are breaking laws to stop the President have met their match. These spoiled, whining, overpaid, under-worked assholes better cinch up their big girl panties, go to work and shut up. In reality most of them do not have the intelligence to see the bulldozer coming so “Saddle Up Buttercup” and get your resume current. As the majority of them are lawyers I doubt if there are as many ambulances to chase as there are Lawyers?

Watching our own people hate each other is worse than rabies. What is happening today is we are our own enemy and is the worst event to happen in my 86+ years. Wake up Americans unless you really hope our Republic will self-destruct. I would like all 886 Federal Judges to run for President and all of them win. This would cancel their lifetime appointments and maybe save the Republic. If we could do the same thing and get rid of all 585 Congresspersons at one time it we could pay off the national debt. Let the States manage themselves and half of them will go belly up. Even Mexico would not want California again.     

They will try to kill Trump but they better have a solid plan. The new Sheriff is able, capable and aimed in the right direction. A message to all of you who are trying to sink the Trump boat. If you get squashed in the process, the term most used to describe your mindset is “STUPID”. It might take anyone else a lifetime to stop the hate in America. Watch Trump do it in less than four years and change the laws and procedures that permit Government Employees to drop anchor instead of row the boat.

Go Navy!

Election 2016 – Watch the Donkeys Run!

My great friend, Ron Jenkins shared the following scenario which I found interesting and hope you do also. It will be a blast watching a new political neophyte make a bunch of political hacks jump through hoops and run like rabbits. Listening to the new Senate minority leader, Chuckie Schumer, brag how tough the Demoncrats will be will be easy for the Donald. He has the ability and the surgical tools to make these “mossbacks” look like fools. C Brewer 

Absorb Ron’s Story

On Nov. 8 at around 1700 hours, Hillary and 400+ Hillary Clinton loyalists gathered with 100+ cases of champagne, a Two-Million-Dollar massive fireworks display in downtown New York. They had a custom-built dome symbolizing the mythical “glass ceiling” and HRC, (or, as her Secret Service call sign reflects, “Broomstick One”) readied to celebrate her victory over Trump.

Celebrating the first female President of the United States had the inner-city welfare army dancing in the streets. They were now certain their welfare checks were going to continue to increase.

Mexico was happy as they could continue to look the other way as gang members and ex-cons illegally entered America.

Isis was happy as they could continue to infiltrate America with innocent Muslim’s and radicalize them in Mosque’s, protected by US law.

Newsweek had already published and shipped the next issue with the cover “Madam President” and a detailed analysis of precisely how the Clinton political machine had captured the Electoral College with a whopping 324 votes. They had her acceptance speech in an article gracefully calling for all Americans to join with her and move forward in Utopian, Progressive Socialism.

Among the 400+ giddy followers were those who had already received confirmation of their future assignments & high paid government jobs in the White House, FBI, Department of Labor, and the list goes on.

Everyone as assured of at least four (4) and probably eight (8) years of lucrative jobs that they had dedicated over 3 years of their lives to achieve. They had all rented or bought housing in D.C. or nearby in Georgetown. Reservations had been made at the Hilton and other five star hotels in New York City for the PARTY.

They knew the fix was in: every poll and every media outlet except Fox News, (Eric Bolling specifically) and Drudge was in the tank for Hillary and against Trump. At a rate of 45 to 1 Department of Justice  employees had contributed to the campaign over Trump.  CNN, NBC, CBS had all supplied Hillary with the debate questions, well in advance.  The fix was in over all the scandals and the Wiki Leaks was all the fault of the Russians, who had even changed the language in the emails. The Department of Justice and FBI had cleared Hillary of any criminal conduct. 

Almost every media pundit and all of the polls except the LA Times and one other had Hillary with a 1 to 8 point lead. The odds in Las Vegas were 200 to 1 and by election time were still 5 to 1.

The early exit polls were 100% in the Democrat’s favor and the path to victory was clear.

Then, within 5 short hours, it all came crashing down. 

Hillary went ballistic; cursing and wailing like a banshee.  They were all stunned; told to go home and go home they did, so they could organize riots and proclaim to the world that Trump was not their President. 

Imagine the abject depression as the shock that set in. One more political dynasty bites the dust. 

“Congrats to All Patriotic Americans that love their Republic, great job!” 

One more thing, if California wants to secede, we should let them and let them take their 5+ million Democrat votes with them. That alone would mean a Conservative, Republican, federal government for the next few decades.

Now will come the divisiveness of the Democrat minority, in the Senate, where they will try to derail Mr. Trump’s nominees for his Cabinet and any and all political appointments within his control.  Let’s just see how cohesive the Democrats can be over the next 60 days and four years.

Let’s see how they try to block Mr. Trump’s nominee for the current Supreme Court vacancy and the replacements for Ginsberg and Breyer, when they announce their retirements, sometime in the next 4 to 8 years. The court is now four to three, Liberal vs Conservative, with Justice Kennedy usually siding with the Liberal women. The replacement for Conservative Justice Scalia will bring it back to where it was, at 4 to 4, with Kennedy as the tie breaker. 

When Ginsberg retires as she said she would and Trump appoints a Conservative, the balance will shift once again and it could stay that way for quite a while.

 Ron Jenkins

I hope he appoints Ted Cruz to take Ginsberg’s place and let us enjoy watching a real “Donkey BBQ.

HOW MANY TIMES DO WE LET OUR GOVERNMENT RUIN THE ENERGY INDUSTRY?

Every time I watch our own government let the Arabs destroy our petroleum industry it makes my blood boil. Thirty-eight years ago, I was recruited to leave a twenty-seven-year career in the Aerospace industry because of new and unnecessary bureaucratic government regulations. There was a need to awaken the industry to modern Quality System advantages but to single out only selective devices was the typical way our own government plays games with the lives and future of targeted segments of a huge industry segment. Of the hundreds of high-pressure devices used in the exploration and production of oil and gas, this new regulation only involved two devices. The reason was the word “safety” was in their nomenclature. The regulation was titled ANSI/ASME – SPPE-1/2 and only applied to Surface and Sub-Surface “Safety Valves”. The limitation of this requirement only applied to equipment used in US Offshore Waters. To hell with the land environment where most devices should be used.  

Four of the next five years was the most exciting time in my long career in Quality which should be titled “Customer Satisfaction”. I traveled to exotic places like Saudi Arabia and many surrounding countries and many locations in Europe, Scandinavia and many states. Improvements were made in both Safety and Reliability but only in these selective device families that the government demanded. Without boring you the worst spill in history was caused by the failure of a device called a blow-out preventer and a questionable well completion operation. Amazingly the two safety devices targeted by the government are not installed until the well is completed. 

If true experts were allowed to question the millions of regulations imposed by law on industry after industry it would explain why industries disappear like the coal industry under Obama-Clinton. It would also show the public how the Keystone Pipeline fiasco is destroying an industry segment to protect the rail industry and investors like Warren Buffet who is more powerful. Folks, it is time to make the bureaucrats justify the destruction of targeted industries to satisfy the “Tree-Huggers”, the Wall street Barons and the Congressmen who allow these boondoggles and fatten their pockets. Until Trump appeared on the scene, I and I am sure thousands of other Americans had no voice.

I am long retired and live in the forest of East Texas where I watch young Americans grow up and have no jobs. Sadly, they must go elsewhere to make a living before they can retire where they were raised in Gods Country. Most must work in the petroleum industry, many offshore and on the Intercostal Waterway to make a living for their wives and children who can live here. When I read articles like the one below it makes me mad as hell to watch these fine young people manipulated by politicians and they have no voice. Well, maybe they will have if the women and our “Welfare Army” can’t get Hillary the Witch elected for another 4-8 years of mismanaged bureaucracy.  Only “We the People” can stop this destruction of the freest country ever created by people with a vision that has lasted 200 plus years. Please give Trump a chance. Read this carefully before you vote for another Demoncrat.

This was sent by my great friend Ron Jenkins who lives in San Antonio. C Brewer

This a quote from an oil executive in south Texas who was instrumental in developing Eagle Ford Shale Oil Field (a major, new oil field in South Texas). He cites just one critical economic factor that could be extremely detrimental to America’s road to recovery from eight years in the financial doldrums.

“I think I just heard the biggest LIE I have ever heard in a debate. And if Mrs. Clinton really believes what she said then that just shows beyond a shadow of a doubt how ignorant and out of touch with reality and the energy business, she is. She said, and I quote, ” for the first time EVER as a country, we are now ENERGY INDEPENDENT”.

The absolute facts are this:

  1. We use in excess of 18,000,000 barrels of oil every day in this country. Of that total, we IMPORT 10,000,000 barrels every day from foreign countries. A large percentage of that total comes from the Middle East and Mexico.
  2. Over 1,000,000 jobs have been lost, in the past 2 years, in the energy industry because we are so DEPENDENT on foreign oil; they can do whatever they want, price and the supply-side. And, because they know they have us by the throat they can flood the market with low-priced oil for the sole purpose of putting domestic oil and companies out of business. Over 1,000,000 energy jobs were lost and the “ripple effect” from that is millions of other the jobs that directly benefit from a robust domestic energy industry.
  3. The so-called Iran “Peace deal” allowed 1,500,000 barrels of “additional oil” to be sold on the world market. Thus, adding to the foreign oil total and further endangering the viability of domestic oil production companies.
  4. The EPA is strangling the life out of the domestic energy industry. They do this with restrictive regulations and by closing down huge areas of government-owned land, to private energy company oil exploration. The revenue derived by developing those lands would earn billions of dollars annually and truly makes us INDEPENDENT from foreign oil.
  5. Wind and solar are a joke. The projects are only viable, economically, because the government subsidizes every solar panel and every windmill built. If you took all the energy created from wind and solar it would only amount to seven-tenths of one percent (0.7%) of all the energy put into the grid currently. That’s right… less than 1% of our daily energy demand and it costs billions of dollars in government funding!!!

Liberal Progressive policies put more credence on the theory of “man-made global climate change” than on trying to solve our energy DEPENDENCE on countries that HATE us and then use the same dollars we pay them to buy guns, bullets, missiles and bombs to kill us with. They know that our entire country would come to a screaming halt if they quit selling us oil and we lost those 10,000,000 barrels a day that currently power our country.

The media will avoid this issue like the plague because it was such a moronic and out of touch statement, that makes HRC look like she has no idea what’s going on and has no concept of reality. I was absolutely shocked she made such a statement.

We have enough undeveloped, yet known reserves of oil, natural gas and coal, to power this country for the next 500 years, if we only had anyone in Washington that actually knew what the hell was going on in the energy industry, plus the will and power to do something about it!!

Hillary Clinton is a perfect example of the ineptness of our current leadership. So far she has promised a litany of “Free Stuff” to almost every constituency except for the working people who pay the vast majority of US income taxes. Free college education at state universities. expanding subsidized housing and food entitlements, extending welfare entitlements indefinitely and borrowing ourselves into oblivion. She proposes mortgaging our future generations into a financial fiasco that will mirror the failing socialist regimes of Europe, Asia and South America; just to get votes!!

As with this and other revelations of ineptitude, bribery and corruption, at the highest levels in the State Department, Justice Department, IRS and FBI, it is too late for all those voters who have cast their votes “Early”.

I hope we all survive the next four-year ride on the USS Banana Republic.

WE THE PEOPLE, HAVE HAD ENOUGH!

News that the majority of the “people” in the United Kingdom have spoken that they have had enough of the European Union “Elites” mandates. This was totally unexpected by the current Government, world leaders, bookmakers and especially our President Obama. This vote has rocked the entire world and it is only the beginning of a new phase of dissatisfaction with the “Elites” worldwide. The people are sick and tired of actions that in some cases are illegal, so that politicians can dilute people’s heritage by allowing an immigration policy that is slowly wrecking their lives.

The common folks can see that they are losing their identity, faith, savings and future to satisfy minorities that even a fool can see have diluted their freedoms. The people appear willing to possibly lose some of their savings and dis-unite from a group of countries that have so many different races, faiths, history and plans for more dilution. They are screaming that they desire to preserve their country for their children and grand children’s future. Even though the vote shows that the British people and the Scottish people may eventually separate, freedoms will prevail for both.

Fellow Americans, we are faced with an identical dilemma in what is now a totally “Dis-United States of America. America was created by a diverse group of immigrants who were tired of the rigid control of their faiths, excess taxation, future and freedoms. They rebelled and won a way to create the most successful Republic form of government that has ever existed.

Now we are watching the “Elites” of Washington D.C. band together to prevent Donald Trump and the people from stopping the same destruction of our freedoms. Watching the leaderless people like Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney, George Will, Lindsay Graham, George and Jeb Bush and many more so-called “Conservatives” try everything possible to stop Trump from being elected is sad. This covert movement to deny American people their rights to preserve our heritage is unprecedented in recent American history. Watching how the “Elites control every media outlet from supporting the people is one of the worst manipulations of free speech I have seen in my nearly 86 years on this earth.

We have watched all three, Executive, Congressional and Judiciary branches of our government, allow and even speed up the new immigrant invasion that allows all Muslims the freedom to demonstrate their faith in public and at the same time prohibit other faiths from doing the same thing.

We allow the Mexican immigrants to disgrace our flag and demand that we allow them to ignore English as our choice of languages. We issue drivers licenses to illegal immigrants who can’t even read our traffic signs. In some states we openly allow illegals, convicted prisoners and the dead to repeatedly vote in federal elections while the Justice Department and our Supreme Court actually support this lawlessness. Our own President Obama has openly created a race war just short of mass insurrections in our cities and even our Congressional leaders have no concern.

Watching the covert movement by both Democrats and Republicans to find a way to prevent Trump from being elected President is sickening. Watching the media overtly and covertly supporting this manipulation to get Hillary elected makes me sick. If the majority of Americans buy this line of propaganda Americans will never have another chance to return the power of governing our country to the people. I pray that enough Americans have the courage to at least allow Trump a chance to fire enough “Elites” to allow the people to have the power to control our future.

The British people have shown us a path. I hope we have the courage to take control of our destiny as they have. Please read the rest of this article to get acquainted with Donald Trump, a true American patriot. C Brewer

My thanks to Ron Jenkins who sent me this biographical look at the man I pray is elected as the next President of the United States.

Donald John Trump, was born June 14. He will be 70 years old on Election Day.

From the Internet, he is 6’2″ or 6’3′ and weighs between 195 and 200 lbs.

The oldest, Mary Ann, was born in 1937 and is currently a Federal Judge.

His older brother, Fred Jr, died in early adulthood as a result of complications from alcohol.

He has another older sister, Elizabeth and a younger brother, Robert.

Donald Trump has been married three times.

Trump’s first wife, Ivana, was an immigrant from Czechoslovakia and a divorcee who has been married 4 times in her life. She is a life-long avid skier and worked in design at the Trump Organization.

Marla Maples, Trump’s second wife is an actress and model.Donals Trump’s biography

 

Trump’s third wife, Melania is an immigrant from Slovenia (born in Yugoslavia) and has been a super model.

Two of Trump’s children, Donald Jr and Ivanka, have gone to Penn. Son Eric, went to Georgetown.

Donald Trump tells us that he is Presbyterian.

Donald Trump does not appear to have had any interest in occults, mysticism or exotic mythologies.

Donald Trump’s oldest daughter, Ivanka, and her three children are Jewish.

Trump’s oldest daughter, Ivanka, is married to Jared Kushner who is, among other things, a newspaper publisher. The Kushner family is very successful in New York City area real estate. Donald’s grandmother, mother, first wife, and third wife are all immigrants.          

Donald Trump was born and raised in Queens. Although his family was very wealthy, Trump’s boyhood home in the Jamaica Estates section of Queens was not a grand mansion. The Trump home was a larger version of the homes Fred Trump was building for his tenants.

There are no indications that the Trump’s lived among the wealthy elites on vacations or country clubs.

Queens is the largest of New York’s five boroughs and the most ethnically diverse.

Trump attended a local private day school, the Kew Forrest School, in Queens until about 8th grade.

His secondary schooling was at New York Military Academy which is about 60 miles north of NYC, in Cornwall on the Hudson. He was the class of 1964.

Trump was never a “Preppie”.

Trump never embraced any aspect of the “Hippie” movement of the time.

Trump was a very good high school athlete – football, soccer, and especially baseball. He had potential to become a professional baseball player.

Even in high school – Trump liked women and women liked him.  

Trump was generally popular in high school.

Trump’s boarding school room mate liked him.

He attended Fordham University in NYC for two years and transferred to the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business.

At that time, the Wharton School offered a rare program for Real Estate Business.

Though he was of age, Donald Trump did not serve in Vietnam.

He was not drafted due to bone spurs in his heels (4F) and also student deferments.

Ultimately, in the draft lottery, he drew a high number.

By all we know, Donald Trump does not smoke, drink or use recreational drugs.

He’ll be the first President in more than 25 years who hasn’t smoked weed.

BTW: Trump’s children don’t smoke or drink.

Trump makes it well known that he enjoys sexual interaction with women.

I am unaware that Donald Trump is a recreational gambler.

His doctor publicly announced Donald to be in excellent health.

I think that to really know Donald Trump, you must know his family background.

The Trump family story is a very American story.

Trump family history – concise                                                          

Donald Trump’s grandparents emigrated to the U.S. from Alsace (Kallstadt, Germany) which throughout history has been alternately French and German. The Trumps are German, originally speaking the same German dialect as the Amish of Lancaster County, Pa.

His maternal grandparents lived in Scotland.

Freiderich (Drumph) Trump made a small but respectable fortune in the late 19th Century in the mining boom towns of the American Northwest. He returned to Germany to marry his childhood neighbor, Elizabeth Chris.

The newly married Trumps resettled in the Borough of Queens NY.

Freidrich was establishing a Real Estate business in Queens when he died suddenly at age 49 (1918).

In 1920, at the age of 15, Fred Trump (Freiderich’s son and Donald’s father), started a business partnership with his widowed mother called Elizabeth Trump & Son. This business was built upon the real estate holdings that his father, Frederich, had amassed (worth about $500,000.00 in today’s dollars).

This is the original “seed money” of the current Trump Organization.

Elizabeth & Fred remained close business partners her entire life (she died in 1966).

In 1936 Fred Trump (age 31) married Mary Ann MacLeod (age 24) of Stoneaway Scotland.

During the depression, Fred Trump built and successfully operated a supermarket (a new concept at the time) which was sold to King Kullen Co. and operates this day.

Fred Trump made a lot of money building housing for the military during WWII.

Fred Trump was investigated by the Justice Department for making “excessive profits” from gov’t contracts.

Nearly all of the building of Elizabeth Trump & Son’s non gov’t building was residential property in Queens.

Fred Trump died in 1999 (age 94) – worth between $250 million and $300 million. His wife died a year later.

“The Donald’s” career.

Donald Trump is the greatest career achiever of the “baby boomer” generation.

Donald Trump has reached the zenith in his careers as book author, TV entertainer, sports entertainer, Real Estate developer, and currently politician.

Donald Trump has authored more than 18 books. At least one of them, The Art of the Deal was a top seller.

Donald says that the Holy Bible is his favorite book. The Art of the Deal is his 2nd favorite book. And The Power of Positive Thinking by Norman Vincent Peale is his third favorite book.

He likes golf. Donald Trump has developed more than 11 golf courses which bear his name.

Donald Trump has twice been nominated for an Emmy Award.

Donald Trump has been co-producer of the longest running reality TV show.

Donald Trump performed in several WWE wrestling shows.

Donald performed in Wrestlemania 23 which set attendance records and revenue records up till that time.

In his first candidacy for public office, Donald Trump received the most popular votes for the President of the United States out of a field of experienced and successful politicians. And, he achieved this with less money than any of his opponents.

Being mindful that 90% of start-up businesses fail, Trump’s record of enterprise is nothing short of amazing.

Donald Trump has enjoyed success in at least 11 very different enterprises: Professional football, Ice Skating rinks, Fragrance, Ice, Steaks, Wines, Model management, Airline, blenders, Men’s wear, Bicycle races, world class beauty contests, and many others. In some of these, such as model management, his firm has risen to the top of that particular industry.

There are 31 buildings that bear his name.

The largest private real estate development in New York is Trump Riverside. Drive down the Henry Hudson Blvd. – you can’t miss them.

There are at least 12 Trump Towers

There are at least 6 Trump hotels.                                              

There are at least 11 Trump Golf Course developments.

 And much, much, more in real estate.

Trump Entertainment, casinos and resorts was recently sold to Carl Ichan.

Donald Trump’s personal managing of the Wollman Ice Skating Rink project in the early 1980’s is the quintessential case study for MBA students in Wharton, Harvard, and other business schools. His performance there was phenomenal.

Donald Trump’s privately held businesses have employed more than 200,000 people.

In the casino business in Atlantic City, Trump had to do business with known mobsters – and he stayed “clean” and alive.

Aside from his personal investments, Donald Trump has never been a Wall Street “player.

The Political Trump:

1967 – 1987 – Democrat (although he was a supporter of Ronald Reagan.)    

1987 – 1999 – Republican.

1999 – 2001 – Reform Party (he supported Ross Perot)

2001 – 2009 – Democrat

2009 – 2011 – Republican

2011 – 2012 – Independent.

2012 – Present – Republican.

Donald Trump was openly supportive of Mitt Romney’s candidacy.

Donald Trump does not seem to hold political party organizations in high regard.

For the most part, his political involvement has been for practical reasons.

Donald Trump does not appear to be held to political ideology.

Some of my takeaways:

Trump has an extraordinarily energetic central nervous system, much like Teddy Roosevelt but more targeted to industry and enterprise.

Trump’s presidency will be very energetic, transparent, and communicative.

Trump will be a very hard working President.

His interaction with his older brother (who everybody loved), tells me that he thinks that everybody is like him – or wants to be – or should be.

His relationship with his older brother was a hard lesson in tolerance for him.

Trump is the Babe Ruth of career achievements.

He is dumb like a fox. When you think he just said something stupid – he didn’t. It’s just that you were not his target audience.

Trump knows the people – the folk.

His son, Donald Jr. is right. Trump is a “Blue Collar Billionaire”.

More than anything, his TV show, The Apprentice, was his passion. He wants all Americans to have confidence (like he does) to venture.

Donald Trump is attracted to and marries smart, high achieving women.

The highest levels of a Trump Administration is certain to have many women; they will be bright and assertive

Donald Trump’s children are very important to him. And it shows.

Personal Comment:

What a contrast to prior professional politicians.

May be worth the risk to see how he performs as the POTUS. IMHO, he won’t make the mistakes of his predecessor, at least he won’t diminish the image of the US in the eyes of the world.  

ANON …. I have no idea who compiled this factual family history or the personal observations and comments. I would like to give credits if someone will advise me of the author.
