KEY WEST LOU / TEDDY ROOSEVELT AND A KICK IN THE PANTS

Words of wisdom from the mouth of Teddy Roosevelt: “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your problems, you wouldn’t sit for a month.”

Nixon resigned this day in 1974. He was caught. They had him. He was facing impeachment, indictment and probably jail. Saw the handwriting on the wall. Walked away.

Trump refuses to see what is. He will therefore pay the ultimate price. Unfortunately, he is dragging the country down in the meantime.

The Ohio election today a most important one. It provides the people with the power to overcome a gerrymandering legislature. Let’s see if the people of Ohio want to exercise that power.

How did Judge Aileen Cannon graduate from law school? How did she pass the bar exam?

Yesterday, she asked prosecutors in the documents case to explain the use of grand juries in Florida and Washington, D.C. in the case. Intimating impropriety.

Using multiple grand juries has been legal and proper for many years. As long as grounds exist. Such exist in this case. Trump screwed around with classified documents in Florida, Washington, D.C. and New Jersey.

Is she stupid or inclined to favor Trump whenever she can? I suspect both, with the weight heavier on the side of incompetence.

A bear in Dubai must have been singing….. Don’t crate me in!

The bear was in a crate stored on a plane waiting to take off from the Dubai International Airport friday. The bear got loose.

A major issue in Iran. Everyone upset. Who is responsible? Everyone pointing the finger at another. Iraqi Airways, whose plane it was on, says it’s not. The government says it’s not.

The bear was sedated and removed from the plane. No damage done. Nevertheless, everyone wants to know who is responsible. It’s amazing what takes on a high degree of importance in a country. The bear escaping the crate is viewed as a big deal in Iraqi. It would be less so in the U.S.

On this day in 1945, the Soviet Union declared war on Japan. The Russians wanted to “get into the act ” before the war ended.

August 8, 1945 was 2 days after the U.S. dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and the day before the bomb fell on Nagasaki.

A typical Soviet Union ploy even back then. The Russians wanted to reap some benefit from the Allied victory over Japan without any loss on its side.

Bad guys then, bad guys now!

Leprosy. The Biblical disease is on the rise in the U.S. Eighty percent of the cases are in Florida. Twenty percent of those cases in central Florida.

Why? Reasons varied. Armadillos are a carrier. Also, respiratory exchanges from one person to another.

Few, if any, armadillos are in Florida.

International migration under consideration. Other states experiencing leprosy cases have a high number of illegal immigrants.

Enjoy your day!
