And We All Thought Playground Bullies Were THE WORST!

Who knew? I know I sure didn’t. The boys of NeverNever Land thought that Peter Pan was bringing Wendy to be like their own little “mom” to put them to bed at night, kiss their boo-boo’s, and bake cookies. (Tinkerbelle didn’t think much of the idea.) Elmer Stewart Rhodes will be sentenced sometime in theContinue reading “And We All Thought Playground Bullies Were THE WORST!”

Christian Nationalism

EXCELLENT blog post on the topic. Just stumbled across this one. People have a hard time with that ‘label’ and I don’t blame them a bit. It is a concept that does sort of resist wrapping your mind around. The fundamental truth of it is this: it is Nazism wrapping itself in a veneer ofContinue reading “Christian Nationalism”

Wolves Hiding In Plain Sight

Some Georgians can start voting this week. I’ve already gotten my mail-in ballot and will put that back in the mail ASAP. I have no intention of allowing my vote to go uncounted. Neither does my husband or his 100 year old mother. We vote. Vote is a verb which, in case you’ve forgotten, isContinue reading “Wolves Hiding In Plain Sight”

Desperate Wannabe Despot

Donald John Trump Senior has officially declared his candidacy for the THIRD TIME for the Presidency of the United States of America. God help us all. Once was more than enough for me. I wasn’t all that crazy about Hillary Clinton but I knew he was a rotten, low-down stinker from the jump. What IContinue reading “Desperate Wannabe Despot”

Now THIS Slate of Candidates Looks Like Georgia!

I am so proud of the Democratic Party in Georgia for the sheer diversity and QUALITY of the candidates in this race. It is unbelievably representative of the faces I see every single day in Georgia. Can’t say that about the other side. They look like Wonder Bread. They’re so white, it is blinding. Let’sContinue reading “Now THIS Slate of Candidates Looks Like Georgia!”

Living Passively Gets You Gas Chambers

In 1933, the Germans did not want to get involved with the government squabbles going on. One side wanted to side with Great Britain, while one side wanted a very conservative form of government that excluded immigrants, the gypsies (Romany), and Jews because they said they took away jobs from German citizens. The gypsies wereContinue reading “Living Passively Gets You Gas Chambers”

“Woke” Who’s Woke? I’m Awake

The English language has some rather strange ways it does its verbs. One boy in my sibling’s class was asked to do the verb “to freeze”. He thought he had the perfect answer: “freeze, froze, frizen”. He was completely mystified when the class erupted in laughter. “Woke” is the simple past tense of “wake”. ItContinue reading ““Woke” Who’s Woke? I’m Awake”

NOW WE FIGHT, No More Nice

Democrats have historically played the role of the Mr/Ms Nice People. We have been the ones who bent over backwards to be civil. We were asked to be bi-partisan and meet in the middle. But the “middle” kept moving away from us, so we would oblige dutifully and shuffle along after it. Until finally, FINALLY,Continue reading “NOW WE FIGHT, No More Nice”

What Do You Do When The Whole Dang Party Seems To Be Nothing But Loose Screws and Nuts?

One of the things that has been frustrating me for a while now is the people who want to make “allowances” for these folks who insist on being, well, flat-out cruel and evil are the only two words I can come up with. When you are trying to make children who cannot legally consent toContinue reading “What Do You Do When The Whole Dang Party Seems To Be Nothing But Loose Screws and Nuts?”

Let’s Clarify Just Who WANTS This Pro-Life Nonsense Anyway

Now this is, for a lot of people, a topic that they just cannot quite imagine much less accept as being the truth. I get it. It is pretty cold-hearted to say the very least. After all, you are talking about humans as if they are cattle or dogs. That’s just frozen. It’s not evenContinue reading “Let’s Clarify Just Who WANTS This Pro-Life Nonsense Anyway”
