Vintage Propaganda for Today’s Truths (No. 1)


If you want go directly to the Propaganda Poster Click here


Propaganda can be very effective when trying to instruct and motivate a population to achieve your goals. Propaganda as art typically caricatures an opponent in a simple, evil manner, exaggerating their features and focusing on a potential danger they posewritten or spoken propaganda casts everything the opponent does in a negative, threatening light. Those working to stop the opponent are portrayed as patriotic, hard-working and heroic, motivated to sacrifice and work until the opponent is defeated.

Propaganda has always been with us and continues today, whether subtly included in Advertising and Marketing, revealed as electronic Censorship by Government and Social Media, or incorporated into memes, text messages, and “News” by the Liberal Press and anyone trying to advance an agenda.

And I thought: What if World War II and Cold War Propaganda posters were reimagined for today’s topics? What would they look like?


Presenting the First in a Series of
Vintage 2024 Election Season Propaganda Posters


“We’re Fighting to Prevent This!”We're Fighting to Prevent the Destruction of America!


Background: Drawn by Chester Raymond Miller and published by Kelly-Read & Co., in 1943 during the height of World War II, the original poster shows the hand of a Nazi soldier crumpling up America’s Charters of Freedom (The Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution, and the Bill of Rights) as they burn. My modern version replaces the German Soldier with our Constitutional Republic’s latest enemy: The Liberal Progressive Socialist Democrats.

My “Pipe Dream” Comes True…AGAIN!

I like playing “flowing pipe” games, where the object is to build a continuous pipe from pieces provided by the game to allow water to flow over some distance or to some destination, with the difficulty increasing as you complete each level.

Back In 1989 I played LucasArts’ “Pipe Dream” for the Macintosh; when that was discontinued I discovered MacPipes, and when I upgraded to Mac OSX the game Flood Control (available as part of this CD) - stepped in to fill the void and continue satisfying my desire to play this game on my Apple computers.

Over ten years ago (!) I wrote about how my “Pipe Dream” came true: I completed a level in the game “Flood Control” where the pipe filled every single space on the game board..

Well, just like the absent-minded Mr. Magoo, I’ve “done it again“, this time playing “Pipe Puzzle”, an excellent re-creation of the classic LucasArts game by Brianna Rainey and available here.

IMPORTANT UPDATE  
Brianna Rainey’s website now redirects to what appears to be an Indonesian online gambling portal called “CONGOR4D” having a Low Trust Rating. Thus, links to Brianna Rainey’s site have been removed as of 23 Feb 2026.

My "Pipe Dream" comes true...again!

Once again a confluence of the game’s algorithm, my skill, and Lady Luck brought a smile to my face. Now, let’s see if I can take less than 10 years to do it a third time ;-)

Check out the Best Senior Living Facility in the USA

A BIG tip of the Red Sox cap to the staff at Power Tie for creating this hilarious but tragically accurate video. It’s so funny even my MacBook Pro is ROTFL!

And, if you this video is a bit harsh on our (p)Resident Chief Executive click here for a list of Joe’s blunders, gaffes, confusion, stumbles, mumbles, and gibberish.

(Oh, and thanks – but no cap tip – to Matt Margolis for posting this at PJ Media, where I discovered it.)

So, enjoy my first Memeories of 2024 as I wish I could find a way to return the one gift I never look forward to receiving: Year-end Tax Forms ;-)

Geo. Washington cleans up Valley Forge beach!

It’s no secret that President Joe Biden has spent about 40% of his time on vacation at taxpayers’ expense, a fact which shouldn’t surprise anyone who heard him say he goes back to Delaware “every chance I get“. Remembering Joe’s fondness for beaches I imagined how General George Washington might have made sure Joe’s trip to Valley Forge, PA included a relaxing visit to a “beach” along the Schuylkill River.


Coach Belicheck fares well, then Farewell

Bill Belicick’s record during his 24 years with the New England Patriots speaks for itself:

  • NINE CONFERENCE TITLES (most in the Superbowl Era)
  • MOST SUPER BOWL APPEARANCES AS A HEAD COACH OR ASSISTANT
  • SIX SUPERBOWL TITLES (along with George Halas and Curly Lambeau)
  • MOST POSTSEASON GAMES AS A HEAD COACH
  • 13 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME APPEARANCES
  • MOST CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES AS A HEAD COACH
  • MOST POSTSEASON WINS
  • MOST PLAYOFF WINS BY AN NFL HEAD COACH
  • 3rd BEST POSTSEASON RECORD IN NFL HISTORY (minimum 10 games)
  • 3rd HIGHEST NUMBER OF POSTSEASON BERTHS AS AN NFL HEAD COACH
  • MOST DIVISION TITLES IN NFL HISTORY
  • MOST CONSECUTIVE DIVISION TITLES
  • HIGHEST WINNING PERCENTAGE SINCE 2001
  • 3-TIME COACH OF THE YEAR (2003, 2007, 2010)
  • 3rd COACH WITH 100 OR MORE WINS THAN LOSSES (along with George Halas and Don Shula)
  • 500 OR MORE POINTS SCORED FOR 3 STRAIGHT SEASONS
  • MOST CONSECUTIVE SEASONS WITH A WINNING RECORD
  • MOST CONSECUTIVE 10-WIN SEASONS

Of course Bill Belichick didn’t accomplish this by himself, it was a combination of Owner Robert Kraft, Management, Coaches, Staff, and Players all working together to win. But that doesn’t diminish my praise for Bill or my thanks (despite his apparent inability to smile or answer any question with more than one complete sentence). Whatever the future holds in the coming months for you Bill thanks for a great dynasty with best wishes.


Biden jails Citizens but not Illegals?!?

Under Joe Biden’s presidency

Joe Biden and his “adults back in charge” of America don’t consider these millions of illegal trespassers to be a problem, and yet when it comes to American Citizens exercising their First Amendment Rights at our Nation’s Capitol Biden’s Department of Justice has announced they’ll locate, identify, track, and prosecute everyone who went to the Capitol even if they peaceful and never entered the building. Seems to me Biden’s protecting the wrong border.

Just Released: Biden’s 2024 Campaign Calendar!

On January 6th, 2024 Joseph Robinette Biden, the oldest person ever selected president, spoke at Valley Forge, Virginia. General Washington and his Continental Army made their winter camp at Valley Forge after losing the Battle of Brandywine Creek on September 11, 1777 to the British Army, allowing the British to capture and occupy the city of Philadelphia, PA, the location of America’s Continental Congress.

Biden’s speech at this historic site (read it here) is the first speech of his 2024 (p)Residential Re-selection Campaign. And, with no real Presidential accomplishments to brag about Joe Biden’s speech focused on the only thing he could attempt to sell to the American Voter – FEAR, UNCERTAINTY, and DOUBT – by talking about January 6th, 2021 protest at the Nation’s Capitol, where American Citizens practiced their First Amendment Rights to Speak Freely, Assemble, and to peacefully petition their Government and air their grievances.

As a service to my readers I’ve managed to locate Biden’s 2024 Campaign Calendar, where you can keep track of the date and subject of every speech Joe Biden will deliver during his bid to continue being America’s Oldest Current President:

A Song Green Day would Refuse to Play

On December 31, 2023, right after the Green Bay Packers lit up the Minnesota Vikings 33-10, all the big screen TVs at my local sports bar switched to “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” on ABC to show New York City, Los Angeles, and Puerto Rico light up the night for 2024.

And as I enjoyed some complimentary pizza slices, my favorite libation, and various patrons in the bar, the punk rock band Green Day played “American Idiot” – the hit song which made them a commercial success – with one small change to the song’s lyrics attempted to “play” Conservatives.
