Rogan's Rules

Admittedly I don't watch or listen to many episodes of The Joe Rogan experience but when I saw Shooter Jennings was scheduled to appear on Rogan's program I tuned in to watch.

I'm not a fan of all Shooter Jennings music but I must say I am a fan of most of it. His new album "Shooter" is a honky tonk masterpiece.

Music aside, I have to admire Shooter for being his own man. He has an independent spirit which has led him to not only become a singer / songwriter but also led him to start his own record company of which he is president.

Naively, I expected Rogan to ask questions regarding Shooter Jennings' new album but instead all I saw was Rogan baiting Jennings into questions regarding Alex Jones and conspiracy related subjects. When Jennings tried to answer them Rogan would either talk over or interrupt him.

You can't mention Alex Jones these days without approaching the subject of the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting. It was during this discussion that Rogan declared he could not have Jones on his show again. At least not until Jones' legal problems and censorship issues are resolved.

Jennings tried to defend Jones stating that he has not done anything different than he always has and explained "That's just who Jones is".

When Jennings (who believes Sandy Hook did happen) brought up the subject of an interview in which it is believed Anderson Cooper was utilizing a "green screen" ( evidenced by the disappearance of Cooper's nose during the interview) Rogan states they have the clip. It just so happens to be a clip that is titled "Anderson Cooper's disappearing nose green screen clip debunked."

Before the clip is played Rogan exclaims "Oh it says debunked" then plays the clip. The clip shows the interview at normal speed ( the video must be shown in slow motion to see the discrepancy) at which point Shooter interjects, "Naw that can't be it".

The clip chosen by Rogan and his crew was done so on purpose, yet Rogan acts surprised that the video says "debunked".

All one has to do is go to YouTube and type in "Anderson Cooper caught on green screen" and the video in slow motion appears. I might ad that the video appears before the "debunked" version on the search results list. In the slow motion version it is easy to see Cooper's nose disappear indicating that he is using a green screen.

Furthermore, this is not the only time Cooper has been caught using a green screen.  Cooper has also been caught using a green screen while covering the Ukraine civil war.

Rogan , touts his credentials by noting the that he used to host his own show entitled "Joe Rogan Questions Everything." A program that explored conspiracies but never found any to be true. For this, Rogan considers himself an expert. In the off chance anyone dares to question those credentials and think for themselves rest assured he will do the necessary prep work and stack the deck to prove his point.

How We Got Here , What Can We Do?

 For as long as I can remember both the Republican and Democratic parties have had their fair share of Lincoln defenders. The Republican Party was founded with the election of Abraham Lincoln thus Lincoln has been the party's trademark so to speak. The problem with this is that the Republican Party, presents itself as the party of smaller government, states rights and defenders of the Constitution and freedom. It is a problem because Lincoln was a proponent of big government, and committed acts that violated the Constitution. Ah, but defenders of Lincoln proclaim that President Lincoln had  to violate the Constitution to "save the Union." This defense of Lincoln by the Republican party has been effective from the end of the War Between the States until November , 2020 At the time of America's "Civil War" one could describe the Republicans as the Liberals and the Democrats as the Conservatives. This began to change with the election of President Franklin D. R...

Oklahoma Veteran Arrested for Defending Himself Against Alleged Meth- Maker

U.S. Army Veteran and Private Investigator Edwin Turlington. On the evening of April 14, 2014 Edwin Turlington, a U.S. Army Veteran and Private Investigator who lives in Delaware County, Oklahoma noticed two men starting a fire on adjacent property owned by his brother. Ed tells me, "When I purchased the property it was land locked so my brother purchased the property next to it so I would not have to get an easement." The incident has placed Mr. Turlington in a four year legal battle and facing a 10 year sentence if convicted. Mr. Turlington states he: "Found three strangers, including convicted drug dealer Darrell Philpott cooking Meth on land his brother recently contracted for and already acquired the right to possess. Relying on his law enforcement training and experience, Ed realized the men had taken the  license plates off their truck, which is a significant indicator they were going out into the community with bad intentions. Ed executed a citizen...

An Open Letter to Cape Girardeau Missouri Mayor Bob Fox Regarding the City's Confederate Monument

An Open Letter to Cape Girardeau Mayor Bob Fox, Cape Girardeau, Missouri Dear Mayor Fox, On June 12, 2020 KFVS-12 news interviewed a “community activist” who created a petition calling for the removal of a memorial honoring Southeast Missouri’s Confederate soldiers. In the interview Sophia Voss made a baseless claim that the statue was originally erected in 1931 near the old Mississippi River bridge on Morgan Oak street as a warning to African-American citizens traveling through the area. There is no basis for that claim whatsoever. KFVS also interviewed “community historian” Denise Lincoln who stated, “I think that if I were African-American, bringing my family through this area, and the first thing I saw was CSA, a monument to the Confederacy, this might be a town you just keep driving through.” I can’t help but feel that Mrs. Lincoln lacks professionalism and objectivity. If I were an African-American traveling through Cape Girardeau the first thing I would notice is the depleted co...
