* How bad are things? Things are so bad that Nikki Minaj stood up against Democrat intimidation better than the entire GOP leadership. -- Emerald Robinson * Terms to know: * Dunning-Kruger effect * Confirmation bias * Cognitive Dissonance * Look 'em up! * The State of Colorado says COVID death numbers have been conflated with deaths by other causes. * Mesa County, Colorado furthermore fesses up to having illegally destroyed 2020 election 'data' (aka EVIDENCE!). * Pentagon tells SEALS get vaxxed or don't get deployed. SEALS tell Pentagon ... well, they are technically sailors, after all. * Steve Chucri, the Maricopa County, AZ supervisor who stonewalled the forensic audit, and who was then caught on microphone admitting all the many ways in which the election was defrauded, how the first 'audit' was a sham, AND how he knew it all along, has now resigned, insisting that the election was entirely legitimate, and that Biden won. (Then why resign?) * Romania has now closed ALL its vaccination centers because 70% of the population refused to go. In retrospect, I suspect that they, too, were intimidated by me. It wasn't until her last years of life that my mother started asking me questions. My father never did. It poisoned my first marriage, and has been a hurdle in my second. But that presents a real conundrum. What woman wants a man who's her intellectual inferior? On the other hand, what woman can bear a man who's her intellectual superior? And, so, my whole life has been one, long series of people trying to prove to me how inferior I am, only to go insane with rage that I never once saw our relationship that way. See the movie Little Big Man. Notice how Dustin Hoffman's step brother is always trying to out perform him, and how Hoffman's character is oblivious to the fact that his brother's problem with him is that he keeps outclassing him without even trying, and isn't even aware of it. First, my friend, Tony, used to say that he believed that neutrinos were spirit, and I don't really disagree, but, as you probably know, I don't believe that there are really any particles of anything. I believe that there is the aether, aka spirit, and that this spirit is not, on its own, matter in the sense that we think of it, but, rather, that it becomes 'particles' when corralled and shaped by a form of light, the light of Christ. This is why Joseph said that all matter is spirit, just less fine and pure. So, what, then, are neutrinos if they are particles? Just that, the base particles created by the light of Christ which then compose all other particles. Or, rather, and more accurately, I believe that they are the 'con-trails' of the light of Christ as it builds/sustains the matter of the universe. What I'm listening to today: Wicked For Good A lot of the sisters at church could take a lesson from this song. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Take heart, compatriots. Q post 4902 Oct 18 2020 23:56:10 (EST) https://www.military.com/video/aircraft/gunships/ac-130-gunship-lights-up-the-night/658552061001 Buckle up! Q My parents were huge JFK fans. I was practically weaned on Profiles in Courage, and had a model of the PT-109. (I was building models at a pretty young age.) I even had the comic book! If you've never read the story, you need to. JFK was the last of our legitimate war-time hero Presidents. I can tell you that he would be so ashamed of John Kerry, that he'd probably change party affiliation for that reason alone. In retrospect, I think JFK was the only reason my parents remained Democrats for so long. I remember my mother bawling her eyes out for days when he was murdered. Over the years, though, I heard a lot of negative things about the man. But it seemed strange to me that it took so long for those things to emerge. And they didn't really wash with his injured back. I mean, he was seriously injured, spending months in hospital, and never fully recovered, wearing a back-brace for the rest of his life. I think it's also interesting how the Solomon Islanders, Gasa and Kumana, who saved the stranded crew of the PT-109 from starvation, were treated BY THEIR VERY OWN PEOPLE when later invited to JFK's inauguration. READ! READ! It's a great story. It's worthy of a Hollywood movie. Ok, a remake. There was one movie, but it was made when JFK was still alive, and not with today's technology. Given all the other remakes and stupid 'super' movies, why not remake this one? Why not after his death? Because JFK turned on his masters, and bit the hand that fed him. That's why! They're the ones who spread all that propaganda about his womanizing ways, too. I no longer believe any of it. I think Marilyn Monroe was about to say as much, too, which is why she died. They killed her to silence her. I'll say it again: I think JFK was one of those many Democrats who blindly held to the FDR school of thought long after it had been disgraced, but, once President, saw and heard things that changed his mind about a great many things. Have you ever read the speech that his assassination kept him from delivering? It's worth your time. And remember the mood at the time. Americans had already been duped into WWI by Wilson, who won re-election on the motto, "He kept us out of war!", then into WWII by another socialist President who had to play his hand a bit more carefully, followed by Korea, and now Viet Nam was brewing on the horizon. Americans were tired of war, and wanted real peace, not just promises of it. Notice the difference between his opening and closing paragraphs: Opening: "YEAH TEAM DEMOCRAT!" Closing: "BUT... Country first, party second." |
