Atticus's JournalNikki Haley is SUCH a cutie!
She not only bears some resemblance to the "Betty Boop" of cartoon fame, she also appears to have adopted "Betty's" theme song as her "policy" in a nutshell: "I'll Get By---With A Twinkle In My Eye!"
What else does any loyal Republican need to know?
Another "Florida Man"?
A Florida man named DeSantis
Took the podium only to rant this
"Though I can't define 'woke',
That's why 'murika's broke!"
That's the "tell" he's a "wingnut" you can't miss!
Is anyone else noticing that Nikki's "declaration of candidacy" is absolutely nothing more than
a string of vague unrelated bumper sticker sentences followed by the mindless huzzahs of her crowd of droolers?
For your consideration---
So, who am I to pen this verse?
No better than you---maybe worse
Yet something bids me try to touch
Your weary soul with words and such
And, if I do and it gives you pause
To question why we don't have laws
To keep war weapons off our streets
So folks are safe when they take their seats
In schools and churches or in their dorm;
Why shootings have become the norm,
Then I'll have justified the time
It took to fashion this poor rhyme.
As will soon be obvious, I am not an expert in international relations, however-------
It seems to me that there are several questions we need to be considering about how to deal with Putin's Russia.
Are we willing to directly confront him militarily to save Ukraine?
Same question about Moldova?
How about Poland?
The three small Baltic nations?
Finland?
Does anyone believe Putin will be satisfied with "only" Ukraine?
Is it understood that those willing to abandon Ukraine will be literally climbing into bed with the likes of Boebert, Taylor-Greene and Gaetz?
As "Tuck'ems" is wont to say, "Just askin'! "
I have been surprised and, frankly, overwhelmed by all the hearts you see below.
I have waited to express my gratitude so as not to clutter up the board with repetitive "thank you"s.
So, thank you now to all those responsible for those little red hearts. I am, for once, out of words.
Will democracy's cause of death be "someone-ism"?
Someone should do something about all these mass shootings.
Someone should be sure that those who instigated, planned and financed the J6 insurrection die in prison.
Someone should confront and condemn all of those who spew poisonous hatred into our daily lives.
Someone needs to insist that schoolchildren be taught "the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth".
Someone needs to reach out today to comfort and reassure someone whose religion or skin color or gender or love results in their being threatened and discriminated against.
We know the names of the "someones" who are bent on our destruction. Someone should do something.
Could someone with connections pass this on to Rep. Jordan?
You are obviously quite interested in internet photos of the genitals of a POTUS's family members, so I assume you will want to view, publicize and "investigate" the numerous on-line pix of Trump's buck-nekkid wife du jour. I'll help you with that.
Her nude photos are memorialized in the First Ladies National Museum. That's in Canton, Ohio.
Ain't you straight-laced conservative "family values" folks proud?
I know this is an unnecessary post for DUers, but you might know someone who needs it.
By the time you find out that your local school board is ignorantly banning "critical race theory", removing literary classics from the school library and firing gay teachers---IT'S TOO DAMN LATE!
The time to discover the racism, misogyny, homophobia and blue-nosed intolerance espoused by those board members was BEFORE you decided not to bother voting because it was "only" a school board election.
Fascist assholes nationwide are already concentrating on school board and other "unimportant" local elections to eradicate anything remotely liberal or tolerant about government.
This may be a case when the "rot" runs from the tail up, not from the head down.
Pay attention. Ask questions. And, yes, find out who the local Democrats recommend and VOTE!
The Teabagger MAGA cultists have destroyed patriotism, Christianity, truth, tolerance, compromise,
joy and now, apparently, Mickey Mouse.
"Do not go gentle into that good night---Rage, rage against the dying of the light!"
