The California Illegal Immigrant DMV Nightmare….by, Limb Brushbaw

California DMV issues illegals driver licensses

Folks, here we go again. The Governor of California, the Honorable Jerry Brown, along with the State Legislature, has joined 9 other States in allowing illegal immigrants to obtain a legal license to drive in their State.  The argument in support of this idea goes like this…

“If we do not allow them to obtain a license it puts undue strain and stress on them as they try to live their daily lives. We need to be as humane as possible for people who are stuck here in illegal status. In the meantime we need to help them live according to the law. We need to remember that having them legally licensed also gives authorities the opportunity to take action if they are at fault in a driving incident.” Will these newly licensed illegal residents be categorized ” legal illegal residents” now that they have a legal drivers license?

If an illegal immigrant who is licensed and given a ticket due to a traffic stop has to pay the fine, or appear in court, do you think they will do it?  What percentage of them will pay the ticket or go to court? We have no idea but I would bet most will not pay, or show. In the meantime it creates more costs and more log jams all along the system. Smart idea, licensing illegals, eh??

Meanwhile if you live in California and need to go to the DMV good luck. The DMV is recommending California legal residents make appointments to avoid the long waits due to the thousands of illegals flooding DMV offices throughout the State. Appointment times are pushed way beyond normal, often times taking weeks.  Once you get your appointment time and your privileged day arrives be sure to leave early as the parking lots are packed. This reminds me of some Orwellian tale as it is too dumb, too unbelievable, too bizarre, to be real. The illegals get preference over the legals. I wonder if it occurred to Governor Brown and his pals in the Legislature that maybe they should figure out a different way to issue these licenses so as not to alienate the average worker who may not want to wait four months to take care of their DMV business?

So lets think this one out.  Legal residents in the State of California pay taxes which support government public services, to include DMV services. So now if you live in California you must wait for a very long time to get your DMV business done because… the priority for the DMV is to take care of the illegal immigrants licensing needs, who by the way do not pay State taxes.  Makes total sense to me.

Do you know how these illegal immigrants acquire their birth certificates?  They walk into the Mexican Consulate in the city where they live here in America and go to the Birth Certificate counter. They are asked a few questions like, ” How old are you?” “Where were you born in Mexico?” “What is your birth date?” ” What are your parents names?”  When these questions are answered successfully, (don’t laugh),  they get their birth certificate printed right then and there, with a Mexican government stamp and all for legitimization.  Might there be a little flaw in the verification process with these documents?  

By the way…. just to let you know should you live in Mexico and attempt to get a Mexican drivers license you are out of luck. It will not happen!

TFOD: “We Can See Clearly Now”

Isis Demands

The recent demand by TFOD ( The Forces of Darkness ) for the release of a female terrorist held in a Jordanian prison is watershed moment for the world. They are promising to behead another Japanese hostage along with the captured Jordanian pilot if Jordan does not comply.

“We can see clearly now” is not just a song, but a reality in this situation. What has been a conundrum of sorts for our Political leadership given the disasterous results of the Iraq and Afghan wars has become a black and white matter. We now know TFOD must be met head on and crushed beyond recognition.

When Hitler began his campaign it was easy for the England, and for America in particular, to believe things would not get worse. There was no eagerness to get involved in any way, but only a desire to hope things would turn out well in the end.  History shows us Hitler became bold and and the involvement of American forces was necessary.  Once we committed to the fight, the Nazis days were numbered.  We saw them not merely as the enemy but as an evil force that must be stopped at all costs.  What drove America to act and act with such massive force?  Hitler showed he was evil and would stop at nothing to gain his goals. When he began to exterminate the entire European Jewish community it was easy to understand this was a threat that would ultimately bring down our freedoms if not stopped. The genocide of the Jewish people needed to be stopped. Evil would not stop on it’s own but only by an action of a Good force meeting it head on.

The D-Day invasion was the beginning of the end for Hitler and the Nazis. The invasion was not a small attack. It was a massive insertion of military force that ultimately led to the crushing defeat of Nazi Germany.  The invasion was never ever considered a surgical action. It was also not considered a nation building action. The invasion had one purpose and one purpose only and that was to totally destroy the enemy and bring them to their knees. It succeeded in doing this and along the way many innocent people became the casualties of war.

TFOD has shown itself to be evil and, like Hitler, will stop at nothing to achieve it’s goals. At this time we must land a massive force in Syria and Iraq with the sole purpose of totally destroying TFOD. If the enemy hides in the towns and villages then we destroy the towns and villages. We must destroy TFOD, or TFOD will destroy us. They are an evil force that can only be stopped head on by a force of Good. They can no longer be ignored. We must remember what happened to Germany after the evil Nazi regime was destroyed. History shows us a democratic Germany arose out of the ashes of Hitler’s destruction and sixty years later they are a strong democratic nation of free people.

Deflategate, the Patriots

Folks I like to go right to the heart of any matter and when it comes to football, one of my favorite sports to watch, the ” Deflate Gate ” facts are clear as air. Initial reports were that upon inspection after the first half the Patriots had 11 balls underinflated and one ball fully inflated.

OK, lets pretend you are sitting on a jury in a criminal trial. The defense tries to say they “had no idea” how these balls got underinflated. They use several witnesses, all voicing basically the same mantra… “we would never cheat, we have no idea how this happened, it was an atmospheric anomaly, and we do not pay attention to our balls prior to the game”. Their coach claims it was from pre-game rubbing of their balls and then he attempts to gain sympathy by stating how this is distracting his team from their Super Bowl preparations.  Then their quarterback states he never pays attention to his balls while trying to laugh it all off as something of minimal concern.

The basic charge against the Patriots is the charge of cheating.  As members of the jury we must decide if they are guilty or innocent. As we enter the jury room to deliberate their fate first thing we are going to do is examine what we do know .

” The facts ….. just the facts ma’am”.  

DEFLATE GATE FACTS

  1. 11 balls were underinflated. 
  2. 1 ball was fully inflated.
  3. Underinflated balls are easier to throw and catch in wet and cold conditions.
  4. Underinflated balls do not give good results when kicking field goals in cold and wet conditions.
  5. It would be quite a coincidence if the Patriot footballs were all underinflated, except for one ball. The chances of this occurring accidentally are slim to none.
  6. Having one ball fully inflated would allow for maximum results when kicking field goals.
  7. Using underinflated balls gave the Patriots an unfair advantage, especially early in the game when the momentum was being established.
  8. We do not know who underinflated the balls.
  9. We know the Patriots were responsible for their balls, and especially for their balls meeting the proper inflation levels.
  10. The patriots did not ensure their balls were properly inflated which led to an unfair advantage that played some factor in their winning the game.

As a member of the Jury I would have to vote “GUILTY” on the charge the Patriots cheated in their playoff win against Indianapolis. Regardless of the outcome of the the game cheating should be a season disqualifying event. The Patriots should not be allowed to advance to the Super Bowl Game.

Unholy Warriors: The Forces of Darkness…. TFOD?

ISIS

The Australian Prime Minister, as well as a high ranking US Marine Officer, recently started referring to ISIS as “Daiish” which is apparently a label these barbarians do not like.  For me this is a start as it has some negative implications and also denies them credibility as a present, or future, State.  From my vantage point though it does not really identify them as the global threat they represent in their quest to establish their Radical Islamic Caliphate.  I suggest the use of a universal term when referring to these barbarians.

                                     “THE FORCES OF DARKNESS” TFOD

This is clearly the most accurate moniker for them. TFOD refers to what they represent both within the Muslim world, as well as to every nation on the planet; a dark and evil force that is determined to destroy all that is good and right in the world.  Why do we in the West continue to legitimize them when we write and talk about their brutal deeds?

The political Right has been all over President Obama for not using the correct term “Islamic Terrorists”.  The President has clearly been weak kneed, if not outright “juevoless”, in his numerous talks about the terrorist situation. For some reason he seems to think using the term “Islamic Terrorist” is painting a broad brush of “Terrorist” on all Muslims. This explanation is basically inane but we will give him the benefit of the doubt here and suggest he is just being “sensitive” to the majority of Muslims who do not believe in, or practice, Islamic Terror.

I suggest using the term TFOD will send a clear message to the Islamic community worldwide that we do not see these barbarians as representing anything Islam, as practiced by the majority of Muslims.  TFOD are a destructive, evil, force that must be defeated not only by the the West but also by those true Muslims within the Islamic world.

So to our President, our political and military leaders, and all true Muslims worldwide, lets cut this one to the quick….Do not ever call them ISIS, IS, ISIL, Islamic State,or even DAESH, DAIISH.  They should, from this point forward, always be referred to as:  TFOD….The Forces of Darkness.

Use It Up Don’t Throw It Out !

My mother, Rita Foley Pomorski, used to quote the following which was a common mantra during WWII back in the homeland:
                             

                                        ” Use it up, don’t throw it out “
                                          ” Make it do, or do without”

Mom told me during WWII they recycled everything back home to help the war effort. There was a junk man who came around twice a week pushing a cart and he paid people for metal and other things that had value for the war.  You see the recycling focus we have today is not new to our parents and grand parents.  They recycled before recycling was cool!  Today I see so many young people not recycling. They just throw it all in the trash and do not want to trouble themselves with the ” blue cans “.  I remember my mother did not throw an empty food jar out without first using a knife or spoon to “use it up” ! Water, lights, gasoline…you name it, they conserved it.  If you could walk to the store you did not drive. If it was snowing out they would still walk.   Today young people just “toss it out “even though there may be a few more servings left inside. It is too much trouble to “use it up” . The older I get the more I understand the ways of the WWII generation were wise and led to a strong America that fought evil and won, giving us the opportunities and freedoms we all have today.   Thanks Mom! 

water, a bucket, and a tree

22 Thursday Jan 2015

One summer morning Mikee Williams and I decided to climb the tree on the corner of Rollins Road and Wetzler. We lived on Rollins Road. It was not a road at all but rather a street. Back then we called it a side street. It was a short block between two more busy streets that each went out to Sylvania Avenue, which was a super busy street. Anyway Mikee, everyone called him Mikee, and I, decided to climb the tree on the corner in front of the Bettenger house.  All the kids back then climbed trees and we had some pretty good trees to climb. This tree was a pretty big one and it had limbs that went out over the street…Wetzler.  

I am not sure whose idea it was but lets just say it was Mikees idea and I agreed to it, since I do not want to take full credit or full blame although as you will soon see I took it full. We decided to fill a bucket with water and with a rope hall it up into the tree and sit out on the limb over the street to wait for an innocent target on whom we could poor the water. In those days, in the summer, almost every kid rode a bike and we knew it would not take long before some kid would ride along under our bucket. It was decided Mikee had the tree duty and would drop the water and I would be on the ground and try to lure the rider under the limb, near the curb.

I am not sure who determined which of us would do what but lets just say it was Mikees idea and I went along with it. Well it did not take long before a girl, who was maybe 7 or 8, came riding along. As she neared our corner tree I called to her and said there was money here on the ground. I told her to ride over and tell me if it was hers. This was a pretty obvious statement that would have aroused the suspicion of most kids but not a seven year old little girl. I can still see her riding over all excited… She stopped in the perfect place and….well you know what happened next…Bulls Eye…right on her head, a whole bucket of water falling maybe ten or fifteen feet. What a shock she got and I could not stop laughing it was so funny, Mikee almost fell out of the tree. She started screaming and we were laughing so hard…it was so funny. She rode away toward her house and me and Mikee got our bucket and rope and took off. It was a perfect sneak attack…it could not have been executed any better than we did it. We laughed and then went on with our morning doing I cannot remember what.

Around lunch time my Dad called me into the house. I was out front playing catch with another kid. I came up the walk and as I stepped into the house I knew I was in for it. At first I had no idea why he was mad but then it hit me…the little girl. Well as it turns out she went home and told her mom and described the person who did it to her…yes she described me…you see Mikee was up in the tree and she only saw me. The mom called my mom who told my Dad when he came home. Mom had a way of handing things like this off to Dad. My Dad was a policeman for the Toledo Police Department. Well you know what happened next… he lectured me about how you never hurt a girl or woman…and especially a little girl. He did not ask me exactly what happened although I remember trying to explain knowing it might be the last thing I ever said or did.  He marched me up to my bedroom and pulled down my pants and pushed me face down on the bed. I was able to look out the window as I laid in the bed, awaiting his whipping.  

As my Dad gave me a good belt whipping I looked out the window and could see across to Mikee Williams house. Mikee and his Dad were on his front steps laughing about something….I was getting an unforgettable whipping. To this day I can see the irony of Mikee and his Dad laughing and having fun, probably it was Mikee telling his Dad what happened.  I am pretty sure I explained it all to my Dad later and he did not talk to Mr. William’s , Mikees Dad. He just took care of the discipline for his son… me.

As it goes I learned a lesson…a couple of lessons actually….never pick on girls in any way, never be the front man to a water drop operation, and to this day I cannot look at an old big tree and fail to remember that summer day, the water bucket, the little girl, and the whipping from Dad.
