I've just received a letter from a reader.  You need to read it and defend the rights of our retirees. 

  A shadowy group of bankers, former politicians, media companies, and clergy met in secret over the past 3 days, in The Sequoyah Lodge Resort, in Rural Cherokee County. The state-run lodge refused to confirm or deny the event or share any details of the guests.  
  Speculations are rampant about the nature of the group or what their goals might be. Some believe it was a group of investors seeking some state govt. concession on tax breaks to help boost the undisclosed ventures. 
  One trash can had a map with Interstate 50 drawn through northern Oklahoma, & spanning from Las Vegas to Birmingham.
 Still others overheard talk in the lounge regarding A change in the state code to allow tax-exempt sales of medical marijuana when the dispensary is owned by a church or other 501C3 charitable nonprofit entity.
  One maintenance worker said he overheard talk of pitching to the legislature a proposed rebuilding of Fountainhead Lodge, on Lake Eufaula.  The worker said one Republican at the meeting insisted that the reason why the old Fountainhead failed was due to Democrat management and kickbacks to Gene Stipe's cronies.
  One housecleaning staffer said she only knows they didn't tip any of of the cleaning crews.
#SatireSaturday

  Did you just affirm your allegiance to Satan & his AntiChrist? According to the logic used by conspiracy nuts, you may be condemned to hell and bearing the mark of the beast?

  The nutty echo chambers of the Anti Defamation League have gone off the deep end and lost their tether ropes. they are adrift without any orientation to objective truth.
  What better time to enjoin them with more of their own skewed rationale and indulge them yet more theories, using the proven altered reality of a deep state self justification.

  White guilt is the new sacrament of caucasian proselytes to the socialist global new order.
  Beto O'Rourke wants the world to know that he has completed his discovery of debased self worth. 
  Yesterday he jubilantly announced to the world that his dispicable white family was a slave-owning bunch.
  Now, to most families this would be a thing of quiet dishonor and perhaps a reason to draw together the grandchildren and explain the facts in a supportive environment of love, encouragement, and grief counseling.
  But Beto is a leftist Democrat politician, so he has a different prescribed process of dealing with it.
  He believes that his great, great, grandparent's behavior now makes him the best leftist candidate to move the culture and the nation past this issue.
  Cards & lettering of consoling will do nothing to help Beto.  Beto is proud. Proud of his shame. It's a pride he should be ashamed of, But it is, instead; a shame that he's proud of.

  This week it was announced that Nike will remove a whole new line of athletic shoes which bore the design of a Betsy Ross original. 'Old Glory' was a favorite of Commander George Washington, who commissioned Mrs Ross to create a flag which would unite all the militias of the 13 colonies.
  Ross advocated for the 5 point star and the circular alignment to demonstrate how the new sovereign states pulled together during difficult times. 

  With her 8 years in the governor's mansion coming to a close, Mary Fallin is telling her neighbors to continue coming to her home for the GOP platform meetings. She says that her husband will also volunteer to be a block captain for the precinct committee. 
  Fallin could not officially say whether her daughter will be a youth organizer in the precinct, but she's offering to continue letting her daughter park the RV in their driveway if she joins the family crusade to "take back the neighborhood for conservatism!"
  Fallin says that the local precinct is the supreme authority and power of the OKGOP in the local precinct and she wants to turn around OKC for faith, family, & freedom!
  "You have to be willing to do the things that you ask others to do. I've benefited greatly from the party volunteers across this state and I need to 'pay it forward.'"
  Fallin joins a list of politicians in retirement whom she says "continue to promote the party in the same way that the party promoted them". 
We asked to see the list, but she said; "I'll get back to you on that."

  This morning the count from the latest mass burning was 29 deaths. California is a state with a serious problem. And matches are the leading cause of death from wildfires.
  It's time we enact sensible controls. Several times a year we hear of a person playing with matches and sometimes its a deliberate and demented person who burns the state for the thrill of it.

• Current state & federal law allows the purchase of unlimited  propellants & igniters in little cardboard packages.
• The dealers have no licenses to sell these propellants.
• The buyer doesn't have to pass a mental health check.
• No requirement is made to stipulate the purpose for the sale.
• No training in proper & responsible use is mandated. 
• Even a child or ex-felon can buy assault matches.
• Extended shafts are fully legal,
• High capacity cartridges can hold over 500 units.
• Military grade sticks are now on the civilian market.

Mothers against Matches has begun a heroic campaign to bring sanity to a California populace who needs to be protected from the deadly and psychopathic killers in their society. 
 School children are being taught to "Say No" to matches and call 911 every time they see matches left out in the open. 
  California is now embarking on a course to be the first match-free society. A safe society. A child-friendly society. 

  One of the unforeseen benefits of medical marijuana reforms is coming to light this fall. As the elderly access their new arthritis treatments they are getting a crash course in awareness of symptoms and clues about their grandkids' habits and vices.
  A study group at one Oklahoma senior day center is discussing experiences and effectiveness of cannabis meds in replacing their opiate drugs.
  "It's absolutely fabulous!" said Edmond Willis of Claremore. "Edna and I are actually sleeping peacefully  for six hours or more!"
  Johnny Anderson, from nearby Verdigris added; "My chemotherapy has been hell, but at least I'm eating again. I think I'll get through this. But my God! I can't stop eating!"
  Johnny says he also alerted his daughter and son-in-law about some cannabis plants growing in a field behind their back fence. He wouldn't have known what the weeds were if he hadn't been growing medicinal houseplants back at his condominium.
​  And Johnny warned his daughter about the boys his grandson hangs out with. "They're Stoners! I know they are, because I am one, too! I can spot them a mile away."
  Johnny told us privately that his biggest concern is not his grandson's peer pressure. He's actually more concerned that his daughter is an alcoholic and setting a worse example for the grandkids and their friends.

   Wall street is celebrating the continued success of mega giant addictive drug retailing. For the past 20 years, Walgreens and CVS have seen unprecedented nationwide growth.
  With the advent of ObamaCare, the meth & opiate industry has received record government subsidies to keep the cash cow producing for the stockholders of the largest dispensary chains, and the entire 'big pharma' sector of our economy.
  Politicians at all levels of govt. are celebrating as well. opiate-friendly drug policies have been an intended outcome of  the millions spent on campaign contributions.
  All of this could end if the cities and states allow an old class of natural medicines to be cultivated and consumed by the sheep.. ere, I mean people.
Trouble Brewing
  31 states have now bucked the entrenched power of big pharma despite the schedule-1 status that federal regulators obediently kept arbitrarily in place since many of the damn hippies turned to living naturally and avoiding the tranquilizers their parents were hooked on. 

  "We spent a lot of money to buy congress and several presidents! I'll be damned if we're going to sit by while Jeff Sessions decides to change course!"  said  one pharmacy CEO.
