On behalf of the indentured servants of Stately Blaska Manor, the unlettered field hands at Blaska Experimental Work Farm (and Penal Colony), and the gray labcoats at Blaska Policy Werkes (and Tanning Salon), the Head Groundskeeper hereabouts wishes all a happy Thanksgiving, lots of turkey and cranberries, and many blessings. Remember the poor souls in Waukesha, pray for the sick, and show compassion for our … acquaintances afflicted by the curse of progressivism.
and irascible head groundskeeper at the Policy Werkes is David Blaska, former has-been, 33-year card-carrying RINO, recovering know-it-all journalist. Holds the record for banishment on the NextDoor social media app. Aging gracelessly at Stately Blaska Manor on the SW side of Madison WI, the Emerald City.

Peggy Noonan calls him “a wholly undervalued executive talent.”
“People forget what a good governor he was …. In eight years (2010-18) in deep blue New Jersey he capped property taxes, used the line-item veto to limit spending, increased school funding, got more charter schools, and got the state through the true disaster of superstorm Sandy.
“… He won public-employee pension reform … despite huge and intense public union opposition.”
And reformed Camden police: “Ten years later murder is down 63%, shootings down 68%, and robbery down 70%. No violence after George Floyd.”

And also with you, David. Thanksgiving is my top favorite holiday. (aka: Holy Day).
It’s easy to feast without worrying about presents. But this Thanksgiving may be tough for some. Our country faces difficult times, economically, politically, morally and spiritually.
I’m thinking and praying for those Waukesha families, … those who witnessed it and especially those whose loved ones were injured or killed by that murdering racist sociopath. They’ll mark this Thanksgiving with an emptiness in their hearts and an empty chair at their table.
We are as divided as ever, even Thanksgiving is under attack by the radical Left.
Today we’re thanking God to be Americans, for our faith, our families and our freedom.
I wonder who the godless, secular-progressive Left thanks on Thanksgiving?
We are indeed an exceptional nation. We are the inheritors of the patriots who declared,
“All men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

No -you-may-not. Turn off Tucker and enjoy your turkey. You did pay an extra dollar for it this year, but those stimulus checks covered that. Mourning Thanksgiving? Who exactly and where? They are just enjoying the time off. I call BS on the supremacist thing. Prove it. Are you just quoting Lara Trump on that? The Native American thing? They regret ever laying eyes the white guys; think about it. GO BEARS…

The priests & nuns used to tell us that praying for loved ones is easy. Praying for your enemies, not so much.
It’s hard to pray & show compassion for people who willingly & knowingly put their money, wealth, career & political ambitions ahead of the welfare of others.
It’s hard to pray for district attorneys and legislators who accept campaign blood money then work overtime to unleash psychopathic criminals who go on to kill innocent people, including children.
It’s hard to pray for people, like those in corporate media, whose lies and manipulation result in division and unrest.
It’s hard to pray for people who lead campaigns that destroy the livelihoods of others, knowing it’s based on lies.
Praying for these people is indeed difficult though it’s these very same people who need God’s grace the most.
Happy Thanksgiving!
