The answer is “BECAUSE WE HAVE NO RULES IN AMERICA.”
I suppose you think I have lost my mind, or perhaps I have had too much wine? I do seem to be presenting an answer to a question that has not been asked. Putting the cart before the horse, as they said in the old days. Right, you are! I base my generic answer on the questions and comments that I hear from everyone I know. Every hairdresser, every cashier, every friend, every email from EVERYBODY. Why are we so out of control in our country? The answer is so simple, as previously stated, BECAUSE WE HAVE NO RULES IN AMERICA.
What is a rule? This is one definition that has not been tossed into the commode leading to the WOKE septic tank. A rule is: a set of explicit or understood regulations or principles governing conduct within a particular activity or sphere.
It does not get any more simple than that, right? The speed limit sign is a rule. If you exceed that posted rate of speed, you could possibly be stopped by an official. You could be given a ticket and actually be forced to appear in court. Traffic lights are rules, the same consequences could apply. Rules are everywhere.
The problem is there are two kinds of rules in America. Enforced and Unenforced. Play-like and real. Here is a cool one from our Constitution.
What does Article 4 Section 4 of the Constitution say? The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion.
Well, Mercy me….I guess Corn Pop forgot to read that article to PINO Biden.
My analysis of my America over the past 72 years, is that America does not ACT…we just occasionally REACT.
A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that the teller’s name is Patricia Whack. So he says, “Ms. Whack, I’d like to get a loan to buy a boat and go on a long vacation.”
Patti looks at the frog in disbelief and asks how much he wants to borrow.
The frog says $30,000.
The teller asks his name and the frog says that his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it’s OK, he knows the bank manager.
Patti explains that $30,000 is a substantial amount of money and that he will need to secure some collateral against the loan. She asks if he has anything he can use as collateral.
The frog says, “Sure. I have this,” and produces a tiny pink porcelain elephant, about half an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed.
Very confused, Patti explains that she’ll have to consult with the manager and disappears into a back office.
She finds the manager and says “There’s a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. He wants to use this as collateral.” She holds up the tiny pink elephant. “I mean, what the heck is this?”
The bank manager looks back at her and says:
“It’s a knick knack, Patti Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man’s a Rolling Stone.”
Tom and Zelensky’s combined height might not be enough to ride Disney’s Teacup attraction. Politicians and public figures are fair game for physical comments. Don Lemon isn’t a news cat like me. Here is one reason that you can’t trust any electronic media without verifying things. Both are 5′ 7″ inches tall.
Here is an old photo of the Carters that Joey and Jill released. They put a curse on Jimmy and Rosalyn. Did you think that any President who allowed this photo to be shown would be successful in running America ?

Explanation: What are those two bright spots? Planets. A few days ago, the two brightest planets in the night sky passed within a single degree of each other in what is termed a conjunction. Visible just after sunset in much of the world, the two bright spots were Jupiter (left) and Venus (right). The featured image was taken near closest approach from Cirica, Sicily, Italy. The week before, Venus was rising higher in the sunset sky to meet the dropping Jupiter. Now they have switched places. Of course, Venus remains much closer to both the Sun and the Earth than Jupiter — the apparent closeness between the planets in the sky of Earth was only angular. You can still see the popular pair for an hour or so after sunset this month although they continue to separate, and Jupiter continues to set earlier each night.
