Have we stopped talking about children in cages?

I got it, stuff is really bad but children continue to suffer.

Help. Cat up a tree.

My dog has run a cat up a tree. It hasn't moved for a couple of hours. I figure it's either terrified or caught in a tight "V" in the tree.

It's too high up the tree to reach, especially late at night.

Any good ideas?

Arkansas advances to the CWS!

George Takei reaction to putting new family prison near site of Japanese-American internment camp.

Following is a link to a story in the on-line Arkansas Democrat-Gazette about George Takei's reaction to the administration considering placing one of the new family prisons near the site of the Rohwer, Arkansas internment camp where he was imprisoned as a child.

This is interesting because the Democrat-Gazette is a really conservative paper. Don't be deceived by the name.

History doesn't repeat itself but it rhymes.

Rachel just tried to read a story about "tender age" facilities for stolen children

and broke down crying.

All I can do - for now.

I have grown increasingly angry about the abuse of children on the southern border that it being done in my name. Then I started thinking about what Jesus said in Matthew 25 about not doing things for the least of these and it occurred to me that I wasn't doing anything except being angry.

I then wrote a letter to my Congressman and two Senators - all three of whom claim to be Christians - and told them we all risk the wrath of God if we don't do all we can to stop the abuse of children, that all I could do was write my elected representatives, but that they must do more if they want to continue to claim to be Christians.

Mind you, I'll vote against all three of these cretins at every opportunity but in the meanwhile, all I can do is write.

Please, DUers in red districts need to write their Representative and Senators. If they claim to be Christian, threaten eternal damnation.

Attack on the Arkansas Judicial Election.

For Arkansas DUers, the Judicial Crises Network - a right-wing conspiracy theory organization - is spending big money in Arkansas to buy a seat on the State Supreme Court. JCN has been running ads and sending mailers falsely attacking Justice Goodson. It has now turned its attention to Court of Appeals Judge Hixon who is also running. JCN is now clearly supporting David Sterling - the only candidate it has not attacked. (Who is clearly supported by the Arkansas GOP establishment.)

There is no evidence Mr. Sterling is "coordinating" with JCN but neither is he objecting to the infusion of dark money to his benefit.

I'll keep my own counsel about who I support but it is time for Arkansas voters to reject this blatant attempt to buy a Supreme Court seat.
