Zelinski/Trump Argument

 It is not a good political strategy. If he pisses off Zelinski enough, and alienates the Ukrainian people, when we have to go over there and get what we need, they will hate us for the next three generations, if the Ukrainians last that long as a people. Zelinski and the Ukrainians would rather die on their feet, than die on their knees, at the feet of Russians. Trump could have made a deal for minerals, and oil. That would help this country, but instead tried to bully a weaker person. That will come back to bite him in the ass, all because he wants to appease his but buddy Putin. He told Zelinski that he didn't have the cards, well Donnie boy, your cards aren't any better. Don't get me started on that hillbilly moron MAGA mutt Vance. For someone who attended prestigious institutions of higher learning, he is still hillbilly stupid. You can take the hillbilly out of the holler, but can't take the holler out of the hillbilly. His ass was just lucky to be there. He should have just shut his ass up. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt. Which is what Vance did. He added nothing to the event.

Quotable Quotes

 I care less about what happened in the past, other than to learn from it. That is its only value.

Humans don't make hurricanes, and tornadoes, those are naturally occurring. We do have something to do with the severity, length, and frequency of them both. We can't exist in the environment without having an impact on it, both negatively, and positively. That is a fact and it is not in dispute, what is in dispute is to what degree our existence impacts the environment.

William Barber (MAGA Mutt)

 Your problem is that your vision encompasses the past. Which is good and bad. Bad in the sense that is not where society, the economy, technology or humanity are going, and good to see past mistakes, and avoid them on the way forward.

The past is only needed for remembrance, and understanding. Understanding our mistakes, and remembering not to make them again.

He is fake. Take a closer look at what he is dynamic, about. He is not forceful, he is reactionary. You mistake a narcissist bravado for dynamic. You see what he wants you to see, which is a perception. In life, and politics perception is neither reality nor truth, it is merely slight of hand illusion. with He is not capable. He only understands how to manage, not govern, managing is leading the few, governing is leading for the many. There is a difference. As for running the country like a business, when there is a profit, who gets the dividend.

Or treating the poor and immigrants like he does. Is what he doing with immigrants legal, or needed, yes. Is it Christian, would Jesus do it. Did Jesus say kick out foreigners. Does Jesus or the bible say discrimination is OK, what about bigotry? Show me where it is said in the Bible, or Jesus said any of that. You may think that his agenda is not demonic, but it is not Christian like either, and at the end of the day, his agenda, Christian wise is also demonic, as the Democrats agenda was as far from being Christian like as to be blasphemous.

You are helping the Rep from Tenneessee impeach judges. Have you never heard of Judicial review, as enumerated in Article III Section 3, and is codified in Marbury V. Madison. You ought to read the U.S. Constitution. You are violating your oath, and I find it abhorrent. Dissent is neither a high crime nor is it a misdemeanor. You are acting like a petty tyrant, and so it the fool from Tenn. I find no honor, or ethics in what you are doing. You no longer have moral credibility/All I see is petty partisan politics. I will never vote for you again. Have a bice day sir.

Morality and the Government

 That is why the war on drugs failed. The government can't legislate morality effectively. As human beings with our own devices, will fall back on our vices.

Remember; knowledge is the path to being whoever you want, and the power to be who you will be.

If he wants to prosper in hell, he needs to neotiate with the devil. Remember the okd saying, "If I owned Texas and hell, I woulld rent out Texas anbd live in hell." Well to do that, one has to deal with the devil. That is how it is forTommy and Monte's wife.

Reasoning With Evil

 Evil can't be reasoned with. It either wins, or it doesn't. To eradicate it means to treat it inhumanely. The trick is to eradicate it, and still retain humanity.

Good men, do bad things to bad men, in defense of the good, the bad, and the indifferent.

Tolerance

 The Trumplican Party wanting to do away with DEI, and the so called "Critical Race Theory." We have racism and discrimination in this country from both the majority, and the minority. The only to eradicate racism is through education. With education comes understanding. With understanding comes empathy, and with empathy comes a tolerance of the rights of others. This from both sides. The liberals are guilty of it, with the tearing down the memorials, of the Confederacy. That is a a period we would, as Americans, like to forget. But we can't. It is part of our history. A history that we have changed, not eradicated, but changed for the better. We need to teach that. The Trumplicans want to whitewash the entire history, so as not to make the white children feel and about their race. White children need to know that some of their ancestors were bad, but some of them weren't. Because some were bad, doesn't mean they are bad. The white children need to know that while whites were bad, they did do some good. The whites both instituted slavery, and abolished it. Both sides need to quit trying to whitewash the truth, to make people now feel better about themselves and their ancestors, through misinformation, deception, and outright lying. It comes from both sides and it needs to stop. We need to teach our children that there is discrimination in this world, and that the only way to overcome that, is through tolerance, and understanding. Not discrimination disguised as tolerance, but true tolerance. Tolerance that starts with observing that we all have rights, and we should be free to express those rights without derision, or discrimination. It goes both ways. This goes for both sides; discrimination disguised as tolerance, is not a virtue, but a vice.

Doc Sheridan September 24. 2016

 Today Dr. Jay Sheridan passed from this life to the next. I would like now to stop and reflect about the profound affect Doc had on me as an angry young man, just starting out in this world. I am a student of Dr. Sheridan’s; the class of 1983. It is because of Dr. Jay Sheridan, that I write to this day.

I would like to take this time to inform you of the influence that you had in my life. I had a hard bringing up, mostly due to my own temperament and arrogance. I did not start writing until I was about 16, for a girl, and after an unfortunate encounter with the sun. It was not until my senior year at Yuma High did I show anyone. I turned one in to you; a poem called The Wind that Whistles. It was one of the first I wrote. You validated what I hadn’t realized I could do, and that is write. You made me believe that I could actually get a thought across to another in words. I have written some 250 or 300 poems since. It was that beginning that gave me the confidence to go on writing. Since then I have written numerous reports for school, a dozen or so essays and I tried my hand at a couple of short stories. You also gave me the confidence to pursue higher education, even though I didn’t graduate from high school. You were the academic influence that I needed to make sure that my voice in this life was heard. For that I will always be grateful to you. You are the finest teacher I ever had, and one of the finest human beings I have ever met. I strive to learn something new academically every day, which I picked up from you, and the learning something new every day about life came from my father. Whether you remember me or not later, because the rabid thief of time takes from us all. I will always remember you and your influence on me as a temperamental young man, with no voice, and how you taught me to harness that voice. Thank you Mr. Sheridan for your help I appreciated it. This is the very first poem I ever wrote. I showed it to Doc for his opinion, and he gave me extra credit and encouraged me to write more, which I did. Rest in Peace Doc, you will be missed.

The Wind that Whistles.

The wind that whistles through the salty waves.

Along the peaceful sunset beach,

Up the mountain crest and amid the frozen waves,

The wind whistles like a ghostly inhabitant of forgotten lore,

Across the wasteland of forgotten unsaved souls,

The souls of men drowned in a sea of obscurity,

It savors the victory like a petulant child,

As the loser ponders his fate.

As he seems like he is the loser, but is truly the victor,

As the wind that whistles still blows.
