My Rant: I am disappointed in my Fellow Americans

I am disappointed in my Fellow Americans

Note: I did not vote for Donald J. Trump or Hillary R. Clinton.

As you know, but if you didn't, I am a Vietnam Veteran with a college education and am well read - book a week. And I know and understand History, Geography, and Psychology, which it seems many of you don't.

When you are in a contest like the Presidential election, you know the rules are going in. It seems like many don't or didn't, because now and as in the past after the election is over, people want to change the system because their candidate didn't win according to the rules. Where were these people between this and previous elections?

Maybe they were too young. Then now you have a chance to change the system of an election after the vote of the electoral college votes as their States decided. You think you have that right now. Legally, I believe you can. I'll look it up.

But if that happens, a minority will decide the fate of our country, which is unacceptable to me. I would go to war over this move. How dare you tell me you change the system, after the fact, so the few in the electoral college can tell us who should be President? That move, my unknowledgeable, is Nazism. Pious few telling others what to do. 

The reason we have the system we have and our government founders put in place is, so a few States (California, New York, Florida, and Massachusetts) do not have the power over the rest of the country because of their population. In the present system, all States are on an equal plain.

Many candidates for Presidents have won the Popular Vote but lost the electoral vote, Democrats, and Republican, but they understand the laws of our Constitutional Republic. You want a straight Democracy move to Venezuela et al. and see what an uninformed citizenry get for voting for one person.

Lastly, if you ally with criminals like George Soros MoveOn.org and Black Lives Matter to change our laws through thuggery, you will end up fighting a war against people who know how to fight, Like Me.

Have a safe Sunday and Life.

Review of The Revelation Room

THE REVELATION ROOM

Mark Tilbury

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

Receiving salvation and spending eternity with one's God, is what many souls want to attain. In Mr. Tilbury's novel, a young lady reaches out and ends up in a community run by a nut case that speaks to God.

Her parents hire a detective to find this lost child. In the detective's pursuit, he is put in a compromising position, which leads to his son's and friend's investigating into both the girl's and his disappearance.

The whirlwind begins when these investigators find the community’s location and become part of a small group that is preparing for the journey to meet their maker. Ruled by one man of dubious intent; the events that follow makes one think of becoming an atheist looking for a way out of their predicament. 

Goosebumps will arise when reading the thrilling confrontations portrayed by Mr. Tilbury. He keeps you turning the page to see what's next up to the absurd conclusions.

It was a great Holloween read for me. You can read it on a dark and rainy night.

Review of Finding Liberty

FINDING LIBERTY

Regina Puckett

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

Time in the future, an air balloon operator finds a bundle of joy on his way as a trader while stopping for fuel. The world is sparsely populated which helps him make the decision to bring up this child.

His new parental love grows as the young lady develops. She learns his love and rules that will help her understand the world they live.

The relationships of the few characters are robust and healthy which enhanced the storyline. And, the prose moved along smoothly leading to Liberty's independence which came with a price she didn't care to pay.

A quick story, I enjoyed.

Review of VENT

 VENT

Robert K. Swisher Jr.

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

I'll give you a penny for your thoughts. No, I won't. But, Mr. Swisher Jr. in his book VENT will ask you questions you'll have to think about before answering or not. It’s up to you.

However, the questions intertwined throughout this simple, enthralling encounter of two men - one in route to the airport after a funeral and the other a well-known local character who speaks his mind. Unlike most meetings, theirs is unusual and funny.

They talked for hours about serious subjects, and not so dangerous ones. While they are conversing, the author asks your opinion about those items that will make you think.

Of course, there is no interaction with Mr. Swisher, but you'll enjoy the book if you come clean with your thoughts. And I believe you will learn something about yourself or not. It’s up to you.

Sometimes I just laughed and moved on. Other times, I stopped and thought.

I found the story enjoyable as presented and my venting along with the two characters was hilarious, compelling, and thought-provoking. I wanted to answer more questions, write my own, or write chapters in the blanks, hoping the men conversed more.

It's a new concept which kept me involved. If you want fun, purchase at Amazon: http://amzn.to/2f9WVNZ

Everyone's Crazy Except

You and Me... 

 

Lionel

 

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

 

 

This book is enjoyable. Well, it depends if the subjects’ matter to you. LOL, Lionel, gotcha. Yes, the snippets of humor and personal banter are hilarious and short, which the reader will enjoy.

After reading a topic or issue stated, one can put the book down, think and mull over the item, read over, laugh again, and then move on because of each length. From explaining essential issues such as 'Hate Crimes' to mundane 'Words Fail Me' and the subject of 'Big Foot,' you will be glued to the page.

This book is fast-paced and informative, whether you are a Conservative or not. Lionel writes about themes we dealt with in an enjoyable time before 2008. After listening to his videos on Youtube.com of the political circus we were living through in 2016, I know he would communicate different motifs today.

I hope he does put to pen and paper this era as he has his past. It would be just as funny or funnier. I cannot wait, Mr. Author.

Review of The Confession

The Confession

John Grisham

Reviewed by Author Roy Murry

To kill or not to kill is the question when it comes to violent crime. "Should the State execute a killer?" is the undercurrent of Grisham's The Confession.

Whether you agree with his philosophy or not Grisham makes a good dramatic case for his position. A man is to make the ultimate sacrifice.

A criminal walks into the office of a minister and confesses to a crime that propels this thriller forward. Deadlines have to be met and are not.

The minister and the confessor cross State's lines, and the country becomes aware of the atrocity about to happen through the efforts of a devoted lawyer. All attempts to resolve the situation is taken with negative results.

Extreme forces come alive that make the situation volatile. Churches are burned on both sides of the conflict to keep a man alive. The result is deadly and not arrived at happily. 

This book will keep you on your toes, and you keep changing the page.

You're Stupid

Me, before going to 5^th Special Force Group, Vietnam, as Operations and Intelligence Specialist in 1969.

I have been dealing with uninformed banter all my life.  

"You are stupid for voting 'None of the above.'

You're voting  Trump." A man said to me at my local bar.

Well, I am not going to give the whole conversation. But the person who called me stupid was and always is a Democrat. He was heavy on the verbiage about the Republican's nominee character but very light on the issues.

I noted that one: The Democrats and the Republicans gave us flawed candidates who were not my fault because I am an Independent voter and could not vote in the primary. He didn't know that fundamental issue - Independents are not allowed to vote in Florida primaries.

Moving on two: I think both of the candidates are flawed and would lead into war, Clinton because of her hawkish and globalist leaning, i.e., opens borders and receiving money from George Soros. The person agreed with me when I said Trump was useless and uninformed. However, he had no idea who Mr. Soros was.

Again, the man didn't know of the issues. His only basis for voting Democrat was that they were for the working man. He could not back it up with fact.

And with many women, most real issues don't matter, only the fact that Trump is a male chauvinist pig warrant attention when they vote for President of the USA.

John Kerry, a Democrat and Secretary of State, another Obama appointee said at his first meeting with the UN, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQxV9ua9jLw

, you have a right to be stupid in the USA. He is an Elitist like his boss and Hilary Clinton if you feel Americans are stupid.

God Bless America and boy do we need it.
