Zimmerman op-ed: Bring on more Kavanaughs!
Today the website American Greatness posted an op-ed by yours truly, entitled Bring on More Kavanaughs! Key quote:
Now is the time to look these bullies in the eyes, and tell them that we will not be intimidated, that we will stand for what we believe, and we will not bow to their smears and slanders and screaming protesters who know nothing of us, care nothing for us, and are increasingly willing to harm us and our children because we reject their oppressive and overbearing demands.
Check it out. It has nothing to do with space, but everything to do with having and keeping a civilization that can make the exploration of space possible.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either. IMPORTANT! If you donate enough to get a book, please email me separately to tell me which book you want and the address to mail it to.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

What a fine commentary on both the divisive political dissension that we all see playing out before us and the history that backs up our ability to have optimism that the American Constitution is alive and well and in full operation and our responsibility to ensure it continue as designed.
The Liberal Democrats, now desperately lead by Leftist and anti American doctrine, in their desperation reveals themselves for who and what they have become. The Democrats anti American rhetoric and actions are very plain for all to see and our Constitutional system brilliantly reveals these truths for the American people to judge and empower or reject. And that is why the Democrats want and need to either ignore or destroy elements of our Constitution in order to acquire or retain any power. And in my opinion in the age of Trump, at a moment in America where there is true American political strong horse leadership they will be rejected. They MUST be rejected.
The all out desperate smearing of Kavanaugh was a carefully orchestrated political drama specifically designed by the Democrat leadership to cause Kavanaugh to bail out in shame and fear. With the longer strategy to deter all good people who have enjoyed a beer or any other folly in their youth to default question whether they should risk their and their family’s public and financial destruction at the hands of the desperate Democrats to remain relevant.
Notice I use the word “desperate” often referring to the Democrats, because they are so bereft of leadership and any kind of American oriented agenda or philosophy. They have become desperate beyond all reason, they are much like a cornered animal and are now capable of all kinds of bloody havoc to survive what they find facing them, the truth. And in their crazed desperation they will be defeated because they are now un American.
Ask any Democrat that you know: “What does the Democrat party leadership stand for?”. They will have no reasonable answer, because there is none. The Democrat party as I have pointed out for years now is in an existential death spiral, they are no longer an American political party and they have no American leadership to offer their party members.

Cotour–
ref:
“…the American Constitution is alive and well and in full operation and our responsibility to ensure it continue as designed.”
Which Version Number are we talking about? (not to be overly picky) We are way out of OEM specifications. They fiddled with some basic circuits 100 years ago and the chickens are coming home to roost.
My 2 ‘favorite’ examples;
17th Amendment- popular election of US Senators. (That’s what the House was for, now Senators are not accountable to the State’s which elect them.)
16th Amendment- “allows the Congress to levy an income tax without apportioning it among the states or basing it on the United States Census. This amendment exempted income taxes from the constitutional requirements regarding direct taxes.” (need I saw more? they breached a basic firewall on taxation.)
and a pair for the record books that created all sorts of chaos and transformation:
18th Amendment (alcohol NO) was repealed by the 21st Amendment (alcohol YES)
Now, “they” can outlaw & regulate any substance they want by administrative edict, nobody gets a vote, no Amendment required.
Wayne:
1. The Zmans piece is an excellent distillation of what we see before us all. Short, concise and to the point.
2. The Constitution is still in operation although massaged and adjusted by those who use treachery and deceit to do so, but still it represents the best counter to this treachery because ultimately it forces over time for the light of truth to be shown where to needs to be shown.
3. Nothing is perfect the Constitution is no exception but it is the only answer as formulated or as reformulated. The basics are still there to accomplish what it was designed to accomplish, countering the nature of man related to the abuse of governance and power.
4. I understand your pure view of the subject at hand but a bit of flexibility might do us all some good.
Cotour: If you can post this comment on the American Greatness webpage for my op-ed, it would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry, I have attempted several times to post my comment on the American Greatness site but I am unable to successfully complete their security measures and account set up for some reason.
If anyone who can would like to post it that would be fine with me.
Cotour: Can you describe more exactly what happens? I will email them to let them know.
I tried again to sign in under the Google sign in and I was successful.
Cotour: Thank you!
BLASI / FORD, JUST A GOOD SOLDIER
Political strategy, not about a sexual assault. I remember saying at the time that, Christien Blasi Ford looked more like a good soldier than a rape victim during her testimony. And that is exactly what it looks like she in fact was.

Just another fraud from the left, they are always playing chess and willing to pay any price.
“By any means necessary”.
