Until today, I’ve not used that term really. However, it seems the most appropriate today. The deplorable of today are women who voted for a man who feels okay grabbing a woman by the pussy and a party that believes it should be able to control a woman’s body. It is a FBI director who… Continue reading The Deplorable Among Us Have Won

The United States Constitution Experiment is Failing
https://2vwlfu3ynqxb3npfhm3m8lde-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/lady-liberty-weeping.jpg Although I have felt our Democracy, our Republic, has been failing for a long time, it has become even more evident as I have been watching the impeachment of President Trump.

It is even becoming a regular occurrence of having to take a nap when I get home to make it through the evening. I was and have been exhausted. I’m not… Continue reading Are You as Exhausted as I Am?
Where Have All Our Leaders Gone?
Every morning I wake up with many questions running through my head. One of the questions is always about leadership. I wonder if I have been a good leader? Have I set a good example? Have I inspired anyone to do better recently? Have I encouraged others to take risks knowing I will be there… Continue reading Where Have All Our Leaders Gone?
Kangaroo Congress + Kangaroo President = Kangaroo Courts
Each time President Trump does something outlandish and illegal, the Democrats talk about settling it in the courts (rather than doing what they should, which is impeach). They can say they are going to court all they want. They can file the court papers. They might even win the first few rounds.
