U-2 banned?

Recent discussion on my Surber Nation Mental Health Group. 

Jeremy: U-2 the band? 

Don: it was never banned. It just didn't get much air time. 

Don't forget U-2 was shot down over the Soviet Union, being piloted by Gary Powers. There was a cute cartoon of two pilots with parachutes looking at each other, and one says U-2? 

You're welcome America.

SIMILAR REASONS

BUY AND HOLD TESLA. God has his hand on Elon just like he has his hand on my favorite President for similar reasons the protection of Israel and the promotion of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

PISSED OFF

As a possible final comment, may I express how pissed off I am with the Democrats who have known for 20 years or more does Bill Clinton know that this is what was necessary to keep this government strong cutting government jobs and raising tariffs judiciously Obama Bernie Sanders Nancy pelosi Bill Clinton of course Hillary is a brain dead Savage b**** so no she can't be trusted with even a remote control let alone anything national security and none of them understand the strength of strong leadership necessary to save Christians in these Muslim countries so far we can count on Saudi Arabia to not try to wipe off Israel and Christianity off the map kuwait? Did Abraham accords countries? I'm thinking of starting a new phrase called satanic suicidal suckers SSS but I'm still mowing on it molding m u l l i n g dumbass secretary. It's good thing she's an AI. Cats on my lap, daughters coming to give me a weekly shower that sometimes turns into a monthly shower and I'm trying to figure out ways to change my underwear more often other than that that's the crisis in this place I'm happier in a oceanfront ah, clam on a Sandy Beach. I'd fire this dumbass AI which he works cheap she works cheap I'm yelling at it now that's enough later Gators

I NEED YOUR HELP

This needs a lot of work.

I need your help. I'm somewhat certain that I have explained the parable or story of Jesus telling the disciple to go get the coin gold coin out of the fish's mouth and then he notes that the children are to be free and it's The outsiders, foreigners, or whatever word you want to use that should be paying for taxes. This hit me fairly early in my ministry after I started to work in a factory and I noted that our company tried to ship some assembly over to Mexico where the labor was so much cheaper. But we found that the communication was so screwed up that we had tremendous inventory problems and shipping on time so we moved it back and it must have been somewhere in that time that I recalled that principal and realized we did the president that felt the same way. Now I'm really kind of upset at some of the Democrats because they knew this and understood it, like Nancy pelosi, Bernie Sanders, and of course Barack Obama. And they were all for it as long as Trump was in their party I'm not sure what made him switch parties, but I'm glad he did. It might have been Melania and her Catholic convictions on pro life. So, I mentioned this to my very sensible daughter and she thinks that I'm pulling things a single scripture to finance how to sorry how to finance a nation. So my question is to you my fellow research friends who know probably more connections than even our great leader Don does are there other scriptures or other Christian leaders that feel the same I can't believe I'm the first one or the only one I know better but who knows well I should say me and Trump. So find out for me guys is it just Trump and me or isn't it when obviously laughter Nancy Bernie, and Obama, have the Democrats been so polarized by evil women like Hillary that they couldn't admit they knew the answer all along and am I the only Christian pastor or theologian who understands the meaning of this for the nation's finances go to work kids get her done.

FACEBOOK, ROUGH DRAFT, AND MY SECRETARY AI

I hope you will be patient with me as I begin to use Facebook more and more as the rough draft for my journals. Facebook has the best AI secretary and also is the easiest to transfer to sub stack. If you want to choose not to believe that's fine and if you are one of my dear liberal friends you can always block me or just don't stop by and message me and I will answer if you're not from overseas. 

I'm just going to briefly comment on today's election in Wisconsin. George Soros and Elon Musk poured in money for the Wisconsin State judge that will be in charge of redistricting and it looks like we will lose to House seats possibly by 2026 but while I was digesting this someone deflating news I laughed my head off when I saw the other part which shows me our future path if my Revelation from management.. (What?! You didn't get the memo?) told me that Trump was going to win this election. Now, I am not a prophet and I don't want the cult of Mad Dog to get started. I am just a factory worker and retired ordained minister who is also very tired and very fallible. But I did call it, even though I had some friends call me delusional, that Trump was going to win again. So... what I'm excited about is the four word message. And it's the first time I ever got four words.

It's the first time I've ever heard four words. Allow me to explain.

I saw in fiery letters twice the word PREACH!

I once saw the word in FIRE in my mind when we were in Boston and the word was FIRE. The pastor and the Evangelist laughed their heads off but when I called later they both apologized because a huge apartment across the street burned down. 

The day that my son William Michael Dittmer III died I had received one week earlier letters in fire William. For one week I was thinking that it was my beloved father William Michael Dittmer and I gave it no thought after our son was born in mohall North Dakota. But there was a breathing emergency and I was not worried when they took him by an emergency ambulance down to Minot I went to have dinner with my friends the Copelands, and called the Minot hospital and the nurse was obviously shaken and did not want to talk to me and then I realized that the William Michael Dittmer III was my son. 

So yes I do sometimes know when God is speaking and the last message I had a week before Mary died was it's all set up. Repeat. It's. All. Set. Up. 

I'm beginning to believe this is going to go out for a few years. How long? I don't know but one of the things I absolutely w!!ll stand by is that Elon Musk the world's richest man will be used by God with his Starlink satellites to help spread the gospel because this I know, my friends.

I know because I'm part of it. The preaching of the Gospel is unstoppable. May I repeat that? The preaching of the Gospel to the world the highways the hedges the major cities and I already know my message is reaching to Russia and China and I suspect it won't be long till I find out I'm reaching Iran and Iraq. One more time, the preaching of the Gospel is unstoppable. Thank you to all of my international Friends and especially those who are helping to lift up the gospel both here and abroad for working with me and encouraging me and praying for me as I have for you.

GOOD DAY with minor irritations

The time is 9:47 p.m. I've had a mostly good day with only minor irritations mostly at myself and I'm still logged into the praise worship and Thanksgiving club along with the prayer of Grace and a frequent if not daily Lord's prayer. I also include frequent prayers with a hedge of protection. Anyway, boys and girls, several distinctive improvements to my lifestyle? Include a ride to church on a weekly basis, not being arrested by the adult protection services although I must confess part of the problem is my very young neighbor friend who's been looking for a man like me all her life but of course I couldn't do anything about it until the first two wives died. My ex son-in-law is now driving for a much safer and better paying defense industry job out of LaPorte. Hopefully he'll be able to pay his debts off before he dies and no I'm not predicting an imminent death. I'm laughing my ass off? Frequently watching different announcements. Doge is going to start auditing very rich politicians. Elon Musk is still the richest man on earth and his tag buddy my favorite  President 45-47 are slowly trimming the drags on The Good ship Washington DC and the loyal opposition with common sense are slowly getting stronger. Remember October the 7th. Also we will see if I have brought my sub stack account back online you'll know tomorrow. Later Gators. MAD DOG

BILL GOTHARD AND BEER

I'm a recent adherent to beer drinking because of my allowing my homeschool daughters to be married with the permission of their strict Evangelical mother to Catholic men. I am partly that because of my distrust of even my favorite people having control over anything because of prohibition and my suspicion has only been heightened since I used to be a hero worshiper of Bill gothard. If you don't know the tragic story I will only say that he had a wonderful successful early ministry that had a worldwide reach but like any group organization family or whatever that gets rich or successful too fast and goes too far they can become something that is readily mocked and I don't exclude my heroes Elon Musk and Donald J Trump but I think God has lifted them up and we are then going to go to hopefully a slow process of devolving and decentralizing but I don't have any prophecies to say on that because in the first place I am not a prophet nor a scholar nor even a professional journalist thank God or a professional minister but enough about me.

BROKEN HEARTED CHILDREN

One of the reasons I fell in love with Catholics is there strong habit of saying the Lord's prayer daily and I believe if they are faithful to that religiously like it's a life and death matter there would be fewer lapsed or as we evangelate vangelicals like to say, backslid, don't pay any attention to the bad spelling of my AI secretary, there would be fewer broken hearted children and that's why we do this, for the children.

DATING A NIGERIAN CANADIAN WOMAN

I am advising a young businessman, American, who is dating a gorgeous young Nigerian and he has some reservations. Here is my advice. 

I am a shepherd, 77 years old, ordained in two wildly different denominations, and widowed twice. Be fearless. She will bless you immensely. Normal is vastly over rated. A child or 2 or more will bring both families on board. Loving Jesus fiercely is the most awesome thing. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. My disabled woman is 41 and Lutheran. Mike Dittmer aka MAD DOG or revmaddog1948@gmail.com.

PLYMOUTH WESLYAN CHURCH

My very good friend may be going to a Shakespeare play, Julius Caesar played by an all-female cast. I'm advising him to buy the tickets because they might not be available soon with DOGE on the job. 

Although I'm not considered to be an extreme right-wing I did pray for and received as an answer to that prayer our current president, and I am also a fierce bipartisan, so figure that out. You'll have to decide for yourself whether you want to go or not but you may want to buy the tickets now if you decide to go because I think that d o g e is going to be cutting a lot of that stuff out. By the way, my daughters and my girlfriend?? Think I'm delusional well at least my daughters do because they all voted for Kamala. Also some people think I'm crazy mostly family but I'm also right on a lot of things. And a couple of very sincere and lovely democratic friends are really really angry at me because I prayed for a man just like President Trump although I would be more soft spoken like Mike Johnson. One further comment. My daughter back in our homeschool days was a college student when she was 14 years old or 15 and participated in a college area rendition of The odd couple played by two females instead of two men. This is a little bit older than you think because she's already had her 50th birthday.

I'm hiding all critical responses to my post because I'm in a very good mood and I won't don't want to be talked out of it tomorrow I'm going to church with my wingman Chris Leeke and his friend Suzanne I don't know her last name and we are going as you can see to the Plymouth Wesleyan Church and they have arranged to borrow the wheelchair from Garden Court East so even if it's raining or wet I can go pretty cool huh I can't complain with how well I am being treated by everybody even my liberal friends.

AS MUCH AS YOU CAN HANDLE

I've had a good day. My free thinking, and remember I trained her to be that way, daughter parted as friends which is always a little bit iffy because she is a liberal Democrat but shakes her head over how lacking in common sense they have. She thinks I'm the greatest father on Earth, and I was a great husband to two wives who passed away before their time and therefore her standards are way too high for politicians. She was fortunate since I allowed both my daughters to marry Catholics that she got the good one and back then I was pretty stupid about how to show your wife romantic affection without demanding that should be a full-time lover etc etc etc. I got some bad advice from a Bible teacher even though he was remarkable and how many insights he knew, but as he drew to the end of his years a 75-year-old man started flirting with his 15-year-old secretaries. Fortunately, God blessed me with an above average gift of discernment almost frighteningly so and I had some strong disagreements with several of his teachings because it never gave any credit to the woman warrior. He was one of the four Bee gees, Bill gaither a near billionaire gospel music writer and promoter, Billy Graham, who was the best large venue traveling evangelist ever, the Bee gees of course one of the most innovative Rock groups ever and then a tremendous seminar teacher Bill gothard. You can look up what happened to his disasterous teaching by watching the 4 part series Happy shiny faces on Amazon Prime. I've watched it multiple times and I confess I was a partial dumbass. But this always happens whenever a religious or political entity tries to blame those who disagree with them for all of their problems instead of listening. That's probably enough for now and I think I'm going to post this diatribe on the shepherd's Journal to see if I can get another hit or two from China I evidently have a few fans there that check in about every 3 months and they only like to check in as far as I can tell with the shepherd's Journal. My blog humor and insanity is popular in the United States and seems to fit my personality the best, but evidently, since I'm a songwriter as well as a poet, my blog the wisdom poet on blogspot has roared to life this last four or five days and the majority of both my Facebook account and my blogspot wisdom poet are wildly successful outside the United States. So I may just hang there for a while and stop in for some mental health counseling probably on a daily basis. God knows I need it. Thank you for listening again, and thank you, fearless Don, for combining satire, sarcasm, journalism, and historical knowledge to an unbelievable epitome of the best ever in history, and I do know my history so don't argue with me I caught your one mistake, which really wasn't public because it was just between me and you about the Titanic carbon fiber deep diver. As I like to remind my two heroes Donald J Trump and Elon Musk sometimes to build relationships and wealth you're better off doing it the Tai chi way slowly but with great strength but it was necessary for God to do this to turn the tide of the professional politicians to now the gifted volunteer amateurs. I will remind you without claiming any special privileges that I was told.. it's. All. Set. Up.  Doing the right thing and using common sense and working hard like Elon Musk and Donald Trump, and I did do that, you'll have as much success and wealth as you, your wife, and precious children can handle.

FEARLESSLY INSANE OR INSANELY FEARLESS?

Today is March 27th, 2025 and Donald Trump is our president. Partisanship to the point of insanity is very slowly declining. Nationalism to the point of insanity is also slowly declining. The rise of the intelligent worker is rising and the over-educated idiot is declining. My clarity is only increasing and unfortunately or fortunately depending on your viewpoint my official perspective of myself and possibly many others is that I am fearlessly insane or am I insanely fearless? I am also fiercely bipartisan and the day is fast approaching when a Democrat?? will be able to defeat for one election Trump and his clones. By fast approaching, I mean within the next 100 years. I love it when a plan comes together. I think I'll get out a cigar and smoke it.

UNDEFEATED JOE BIDEN

No Democrat wants a Tesla now nor will Republicans want to subsidized them, but sales will pick up when the crazies from the liberal side of the aisle quits torch, shooting, scratching spray painting and bombing dealers, cars, trucks, and threatening drivers. Right now about the craziest thing Republicans do is believe that the Joe Biden election was stolen but I'm more tolerant and I believe God allowed one last hurrah from a undefeated Joe Biden. It wasn't Joe Biden that was defeated it was the Looney ideas that the radical left promoted. Meanwhile it's all set up.
