It Was a Real Debate This Time

Last updated on: October 22, 2020 at 11:27 pm By Kermit Zarley

President Donald Trump and challenger and former Vice President Joe Biden faced off in the final, televised debate with just twelve days left before the November 3rd election. The previous debate was so chaotic mostly because moderator Chris Wallace was not able to control it, with especially Trump constantly interrupting Biden. The event got such a negative response that it seemed that these presidential debates, which have been conducted for the past sixty years, may be in jeopardy. But... Read more

Last updated on: October 19, 2020 at 12:00 am By Kermit Zarley

Friday, an 18 year-old Muslim male took a knife and beheaded a 47 year-old school teacher near Paris because the young fellow believed he was honoring Islam. Police immediately were hailed, and they shot and killed the murderer. He so far is being identified as Abdoulakh A. who was born in Moscow of Chechen origin. The teacher, Samuel Paty, had showed his young students in the classroom cartoons of the Prophet Muhammed, the founder of the religion of Islam. France’s... Read more

COVID-19 Deaths And Obesity Way Worse in Americas than Eastern Asia

Last updated on: October 15, 2020 at 1:08 pm By Kermit Zarley

I’m especially interested in how various nations are surviving COVID-19 because of my recent book, published July 1, which is provocatively entitled Moses Predicted COVID-19. So far, the authoritative Johns Hopkins University of Medicine says the nations that have suffered the most COVID-19 deaths per capita of population are most of those in Central and South America, with the U.S. and then Canada right behind. Peru is the worst, with 104 COVID deaths per 100,000 people. Then, (with numbers rounded)... Read more

Only George Will

Last updated on: October 14, 2020 at 12:14 pm By Kermit Zarley

Who can top political commentator George Will with his uncanny insight and ability with words, often set forth either in print or speech with a touch of humor? Today, in Will’s regular column in The Washington Post, he chides progressives for alleging that our biggest technology companies–such as Apple, Google, amazon.com, and Facebook–are monopolies that should be broken up. Congress even held hearings about this in July in which the CEOs of these companies testified. George Will then reminds us... Read more

Heh Palestinians: Chevron Just Bought Noble Energy

Last updated on: October 11, 2020 at 6:26 pm By Kermit Zarley

Chevron just purchased Noble Energy, reportedly for $13 billion. It is the biggest acquisition in the oil industry since COVID-19 began. Noble Energy is an oil and gas drilling company based in Houston, where I lived nearly 40 years. They were financially troubled, being in debt $8 billion. Of course, it was largely because the oil industry has been very depressed for years now. But they have some good drilling rights assets. Interestingly, Chevron just passed Exxon-Mobil as the largest... Read more

Heh Trump: Skyscrapers Kill More Birds than Wind Turbines Do

Last updated on: January 29, 2021 at 1:07 pm By Kermit Zarley

President Donald Trump is a fool in denying manmade global warming. He does it because he is a narcissist who thinks he knows way better than climate scientists even though he is allergic to books. You can’t be a smart person without reading nonfiction books written by experts. That’s why Trump effectively pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Climate Agreement that was signed by almost every nation–195 of them–in 2015. Evidence of Trump’s denial of climate change is that...

Is President Donald Trump Insane and Thus Unfit for Office?

Last updated on: October 9, 2020 at 5:55 pm By Kermit Zarley

Yesterday, Trump said in a televised phone interview with Fox News concerning his supposed defeat of COVID-19 after contracting it, being hospitalized, and given exotic and FDA-unapproved treatments unavailable to most people, that it was because, “I’m a perfect physical specimen and I’m extremely young.” A sane person wouldn’t say that, especially if he or she had the physical problems that 74-year old Donald J. Trump has. Let’s see the obese Trump in a bathing suit. When he returned to... Read more

Last updated on: October 7, 2020 at 11:14 am By Kermit Zarley

President Donald Trump has nominated Judge Amy Coney Barrett to replace the decease Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. Congress will soon hold hearings to examine her and decide whether or not to approve her nomination. Amy Vivian Coney was born in New Orleans and grew up there in a devout, Catholic family. In 1997, she graduated from Notre Dame Law School and then became a law professor there. Eventually, President Trump nominated Barrett to the U.S. Court of... Read more

Trump’s Positive Thinking Is Killing Him

Last updated on: October 6, 2020 at 6:02 pm By Kermit Zarley

Thinking positive is absolutely necessary to achieve success, whether it’s in business, personal relationships, and just about everything else in life, including sports. I know this well because of my profession in competing full time on the PGA Tour and its Champions Tour for thirty years. You’ve got to envision your goal and set your mind to achieving it. It won’t happen unless you think you can do it. That’s positive thinking. Yet I believe positive thinking can be overdone.... Read more
