Finally, here comes the cavalry!!

 I thought that I needed to broaden my circle of friends, but that was before Tampon Tim Walz said in the VP debate, "I have become friends with school shooters". Thanks for clearing that up, Tampon Tim.

I will be gentle with this observation. I thought that after more than fifty years in the restaurant business, I had witnessed some complete cluster f*cks. Write this down! I was wrong! I have never seen a situation go downhill any faster than the Federal and North Carolina state government's handling of the Hurricane Helene disaster. This is the standard by which future clusters will be judged. There is no official in Raleigh or Washington, DC capable of exhibiting anything resembling "leadership". Hell, I don't even believe that they even have someone who can spell "leadership".

Every sunrise is a chance to show that government officials are even more worthless than they were the day before. I was talking to a couple of guys from Georgia today and they agreed that they are actually missing Carter.

Why don't Kameltoe and Tampon Tim have Kamala's best buddy Oprah, do a show from Asheville and then she can give everyone there a brand-new car? Maybe they can all get $10,000 each from all of those billionaires who have flooded the Harris-Tampon Tim campaign with hundreds of millions of dollars. Why isn't Kameltoe calling out her rich friends for not helping out all of these "middle class" folks? Is she going to donate any leftover campaign funds to house the NC refugees? In another couple of weeks, Kameltoe will be telling stories about how she was washed away by a flood while walking over one of those perfectly manicured lawns in her middle-class neighborhood while on her way to her job at McDonalds. Has she told anyone which McDonalds she worked at?

The 18th Airborne Corps made it to the North Carolina mountains today. They brought with them 6 Chinook helicopters and 30 Blackhawk helicopters. It only took a week for the DOD to mobilize 1,000 men and their equipment and move it 275 miles to Asheville. I guess that the rapid reaction team was on vacation. Either they were on vacation or on their way to relieve Custer who may still be waiting for them at Little Bighorn.

Just for reader info, the flight time for either of those aircraft from the 18th Airborne Corps is less than two hours to get from their base to Asheville.

For a historical comparison, on Sept.23,1957 black students were brought in through a side door to integrate Little Rock High School. Fearing an escalation of mob violence, they returned the students to their homes. On September 24, 1957, Eisenhower ordered the 101st Airborne to help with security. Within an hour, there were soldiers in the air and on the way to Little Rock. On September 25, the soldiers provided security for the desegregation of the school. If Ike could get the 101st there in a few hours, why can't today's army get to Asheville?  Do we blame Biden, the DOD, the Army or all of the above? Who is the commander of that unit? Dudley Do-Right?

I think that the length of time someone might survive trapped in the mud without food or water is probably around four to five days. Today was Day seven, after the storm hit. How long does it take the Border Patrol to pick up an illegal migrant stranded on a trail in southern Arizona? Hint: It's less than a week. But we don't want anything happening to those guys before FEMA can fill their pockets with taxpayer cash.

On Friday, the government released more info about the increase in jobs rate. I just want to make sure that everyone understands, the government does not actually take a count of everyone who has a job.  They take a sampling of data from selected employers and extrapolates that data to project some sort of national average. I worked in the restaurant business for more than fifty years and only know of one year when we were asked to participate in the data gathering process. Government statistics are not encyclopedia grade facts. They are more like dime store romance novel grade facts.

The federal government has spent the last couple of days trying to "kind of" deny the truth in Mayorkas' statement about FEMA being out of money.

If the illegals are being put up by the government at chain hotels, did they at least have the illegals join the appropriate club at those chains so that they could get some free nights and other benefits? 

I would like to complain a little more, but there is an estate auction happening down the road and there is a bid card with my name on it.
