While perusing Facebook earlier today, I saw a post by a Mr. Smith about liberals and the man (the man) in the Oval Office. It appears Trumpists, and supporters of Trumpists, are wanting to have the post go viral by saying the post was going viral. I don’t know if it is or not, but… Continue reading Things that Make One Go, “Hmmmm!”

Shocked, but Not Really Surprised
As I wrote yesterday, last evening was an emotional one with tears shed as information was shared and erroneous statements uncovered. As parents, we want to protect our children as best we can, wanting to keep certain facts and information to ourselves so the hurts and pains of the past remain where we’d like them,… Continue reading Shocked, but Not Really Surprised
It’s Always Incremental
In order for something to become the so-called norm, the thing is introduced to us incrementally. Take the man in the Oval Office right now. He came down those escalators with a bang and told us right away who he was as a person, who he would be as a candidate, and who he would… Continue reading It’s Always Incremental

All Because of an Over Inflated Ego, which Must Be Fed Constantly
Only the current man in the Oval Office, who had been scheduled to deliver the commencement speech at West Point, would say he is going to do something without first checking to see if it is safe or feasible to do at this time. Because he is getting hammered over this daily propaganda broadcasts, and… Continue reading All Because of an Over Inflated Ego, which Must Be Fed Constantly
His Own Brand of Reality
The title for this post comes from the book, A Very Stable Genius. These words really describe the thinking of the man in the Oval Office. Then on LinkIn, the quote to the left popped up on my newsfeed. It also describes how we, and the media, should be treating the man in the Oval… Continue reading His Own Brand of Reality
This Bible Verse is on My Mind
Few know of my religious background or my beliefs. Mainly this is because I’m a fairly private person and I’m respectful of the religious beliefs of others. I would characterize myself as more of a spiritual person over a religious person. The person I speak to the most on religious questions is my mom.

What Will It Take?
What will it take for Republicans to take back their party from the Trumpists? The man in the Oval Office, while on the campaign trail of the 2016 election said he could “stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody” and he would “lose any voters.” He may not be standing in the… Continue reading What Will It Take?
The Great Compromise Has Begun
A few days ago I wrote a post entitled, The Great Compromise. When I wrote it, I thought it might still be a little while before we would get to that point. Apparently my thinking was way off. The great compromise has begun. There are forces pushing boundaries to see what we will tolerate and… Continue reading The Great Compromise Has Begun
The Great Compromise
When I first read the following words in an article by Mr. Grenny. I had to go back and read it again. In all, I think I’ve reread it at least 20-times. Eventually, we’ll get more used to the idea of losing a couple million of our fellow citizens. We already do. We expect to… Continue reading The Great Compromise
