Steve’s Barking; Afghanistan win, lose or draw

 The United States pulled out of Afghanistan. Was it a loss, was it a win , or was it a draw.

 If the US or it’s allies is not attacked and it’s not a safe haven from terrorist it’s a win.

 If we are attacked by Al-Qaeda types and it’s a safe haven for terrorist it a major loss.

 It can be seen as a draw if the Taliban stays in control of the country and there are no terrorist attacks from Afghanistan.

It’s a loss to women, it’s a loss to democracy, it’s a loss to American prestige, but those things are not why we went to Afghanistan. The reason was to wipe out Al-Qaeda and make America a safer place.

 How the US conducted the “war” is an object lesson on what not to do. We should have been more aggressive with men living in the field. We should have been more aggressive in training especially with those who would have great losses ( women) that they would fight like tigers for their way of life and life it’s self depended on it.

* We don’t know if it was a win, loss or draw and we will not know for quite some time.

Steve’s Barking; Musing about Delta Variant

 Knowing no true facts about Covid 19 Variant Delta that can be pinned down. The experts say it’s more contagious then previous known Covid 19(?).What does that mean. People who are vaccinated are getting this variant, does that mean the vaccine doesn’t work?Are we in trouble for all that was found out about the original Covid 19 that it doesn’t spread very well in the open air is out the window and we need to cover up even outdoors? Is it possible the Covid 19 delta variance sticks to the mucus a persons nose it doesn’t really affect him making the test actually false positive therefore making a test will you put a swab the persons nose ineffective to really telling if a person really has Covid 19. Are we premature to let people go to sporting events indoors same goes for concerts and possibly restaurants non masked. Have we let the beast out with resistance to go back to being masked and quarantines and even stuck in ones house. Is it possible that the Delta Variant can mutate into a benign virus that actually helps end the epidemic? I really don’t know any of the answers except that teams like the Yankees keep having players test positive even with the vaccinations. That’s why I started to muse.

Steve’s Barking; America’s sons and daughters of Stalin

 I’m laying claim to calling those drones who keep calling the election rigged the sons and daughters of Stalin. One of the Tea Party tenants in 2014 was that the American elections are rigged. When the Donald ran in 2016 he echoed this sentiment, but he won. Come 2020 a large number of Trumps followers claim the election was rigged and that Trump really won. Now the Stalinist would say a lie over and over again until the became the truth to his followers, sound familiar!

Steve’s Barking; Please don’t call an infrastructure bill a jobs bill !

 The United States at the present time doesn’t need more new  jobs, it can’t fill the jobs that our out there. The United State needs a massive rehabilitation of its highways, bridges and electrical grid along with doubling and tripling its capacity to produce electricity. This is just so that we can complete in the world economy. Hopefully I’m wrong but a trillion dollars doesn’t seem nearly enough. We need waste water treatment capacity. We need pipes  to bring clean drinking water to ever part of this nation, along with irrigation for our farmers so the’ll be food for all. We also need a system to moisten the land that is prone to fires. These additional cost are mind blowing so I doubt that very much that the needs of the country I’ll be nearly met. Nooooo we don’t really need the jobs that would be created ( we will have import workers to get these needs done quickly) we do need an overhaul of our infrastructure.

 

* I didn’t mention catch basins and drainage systems for floods that will come( More Cost).

  I doubt that we have the guts to spend the money to keep America competitive!

  No we don’t need that many jobs, we need a much stronger infrastructure period.

 

** Another rambling piece.

Steve’s Barking; Why are the RINOs anti capitalist?.

 Ok wtf is a RINO? Republicans in name only. Or the new Republican Party if that rocks your boat.

 Now why do I call the new Republican Party anti capitalist ( I could just say their anti business. 

 Well let’s just say two of the most prominent Governors Ron Santis and Greg Abbot are telling the businesses in their state that they can’t demand that their employees and customers to wear. Now if that’s the businesses policy, that’s the businesses policy. I know that if I ran a business in Texas or in Florida I would want my customers and workers to wear mask to avoid liability in case of COVID 19  outbreak being traced my place of business and I didn’t do enough to prevent it. How can a so called friendly business state have a governor who tells the tourists shipping industry that they can’t demand that it’s Cruise ships have it’s passengers and crew be vaccinated against COVID 19 when if an outbreak of the disease should crush the industry.  When Democrats tell businesses what they can and can’t do they call them socialist. Maybe the new Republican Party likes the communist idea of telling company’s what to do  also.

* The New Republican Party is not my uncle’s Republican Party. The old Republican Party was sneakily taken over by the Anarchist Tea Party.. 

Steve’s Barking; He best thing that happened to the gun industry……

 Trump lost, and I’ve been told that it’s hard to buy a gun and almost impossible to buy bullets. No it’s not that the Democrats are banning weapons it’s just that there’s so many people who believe that the Democrats will be in weapons if they went on a buying frenzy. Supply and demand market forces are taking shape. Many arms firms were on the verge of bankruptcy but it appears that is no longer the case.

If one was to buy stock in gun and ammunition companies it’s better to have. Democrat in the White House and Democrats running congress

Steve’s Barking; Hell 🔥froze ❄️ over! 🙀

 Just read that hell 🔥froze over, it snowed⛄️ in Brazil.

* Just kidding. Brazil is not hell, but a very nice country on the Equator. It hasn’t snowed in this part of Brazil in living memory. Another sign of the end is coming.  🤔🙀
