Why the Republicans' New "Red Scare" Tactics Ring False [commondreams.

DenoPenno comments on Mar 4, 2019:

Indeed the false "red scare" goes back into Eisenhower days and is put on Bernie and AOC wrongly. The move now is to convince everyone (or as many as possible) that there is no chance for us unless we re-elect Trump. I'm going on 73 and I've never seen, heard, or read more political lies in my life. Democratic Socialism is nothing at all like we are being told. In fact, social security falls right into that along with universal healthcare. We are always told to "follow the money." This is good advice when investigating something. The new "red scare" is coming about because people other than the common man want to **keep that money**. This is why we are lied to. Partisan speak is always what it is about to many people. This is a diversion they will cause because your party loyalty is known. I don't belong to either party by design. Recently Trump and his supporters want you to believe that Democrats support efforts to murder aborted babies. The idea here seems to be delivering a full term baby and then deciding to kill it. Nothing even close to this is happening or in the realm of happening. It's Trump and his "partisan speak" to cause you to switch to his GOP. Wrong, and nothing but lies, this is now used just like the false red scare.

Tyson is correct. Just this morning on other media people posted an elaborate meme on how Trump was wise in the "decision" with North Korea. The meme quickly takes in both Clintons, Obama, Iran, uranium deals and more. I pointed out that (1) Trump listens to no one and (2) Nobody else has succeeded with North Korea either. They think I'm totally ignorant and they stand behind their "stable genius." Yes, ignorance is a virus and Neil deGras Tyson is right. Our problem here is that getting rid of this virus might take a long time.

Does it seem to others that previous alcoholics turn to god as their new addiction?

DenoPenno comments on Mar 1, 2019:

I went this way in reverse. I became an alcoholic because I had "failed myself and my god." For years I drank excessively. Still enjoying a 12 pack on the weekends when the wife and I busted. Once I became atheist I slowed up but was unaware of it at first. I still drink and there is beer in the frige from way back. Tonight I bought a 4 pack of specialty stout made in Ireland. I could get around to drinking some of that tomorrow. Even so with this all in reverse of what you posted, I was probably more fun as a drunk and I'm sure I take myself more seriously now than I did back when I drank heavily. What the serious me sees is that religion was a big assed mistake all the way around. Just today in social media someone posted 3 bible verses to explain, Trump, the world, and things in America right now. I was very quick to tell them that their bible really says nothing about these things at all. There is no way that it could, and I prefer not to get into hypothetical nonsense about the bible. They surprised me! She said she would keep her belief and also respect mine. We would still be friends and she would not use the bible verses any longer with me. :)

I agree with your words and I identify. As a one time believer this entire concept has escaped me today. It's hard to look back and give thoughts and feelings that back up my one time belief. The best I can say is that I thought my bible was "evidence" and so many think that way today as well. It took me years to break away and it was a gradual process. My study of the bible was part of this along with logic and a need of evidence.

At this point Gaetz made a threat to Cohen. There is simply no other way to take that. Gaetz should know better and we all know that he does. As for him, Sanders, and others claiming that Cohen is a liar we have to consider that Cohen was Trump's fixer. This means that Cohen knew all the secrets and any time something needed fixed, Cohen would fix it. Once that soaks in, how would you call Cohen a liar? Who do we suspect the real liars to be?

DenoPenno comments on Feb 26, 2019:

The problem with tweets like this is that his supporters believe him. A couple of people have come up with ideas of mother and doctor deciding to execute babies after they are born and this is instantly taken as a Democratic political position. It's taken as the new accepted position on abortion and it simply is not so and is not happening. Some off the wall nutjob has this opinion and suddenly it is a Democratic political fact. Not so at all. I'm pro choice and one of the first to admit that Dr. Kermit Gosnell is a murderer and should be doing life in prison. He would have gotten the death penalty except that plea deals were made. What Gosnell did has nothing to do with accepted pro choice ideas. Gosnell, staff, and patients committed murder. The pro life group thinks that if you do not believe as they do you must be wanting to kill babies. This is just not so. If you think that poor women are paying $350 and up to abort a baby rather than take birth control pills you lack the skills of logical thinking. In fact, many pharmacists will not prescribe a "morning after pill" because of their religious beliefs. They need another job.

February 24, 2019 Child Sex Trafficking through Child “Protection” Services Exposed – ...

DenoPenno comments on Feb 24, 2019:

Regardless of Stefano's validity here you have to ask certain questions. The basic ones in my mind today center around just where are the children of the migrants who were stopped at our border? In the beginning the government said they had to do this separation and they knew where all the children were. Now they claim not to know where all these children are and therefore say it would be impossible to put the children back with the parents. Where are these children? They have been placed with somebody. Since it does not appear that the child or the migrant parent are benefiting in any way we have to ask who benefited and why? This is child trafficking plain and simple. It is all about money and a big part of it is about sex. Who will complain if the parents have no voice or rights in the United States. Once the child gets into our system as a foster child and info gets sealed you find that a government can be a provider of children.

This is all very simple. Even so, local GOP officials seem to girate to some twilight zone in which busloads of illegals show up and vote anyway. It simply is not possible.

Have we separated church and state? Hell no! The Trumpers want to clarify this issue by melding them back together again as one. Pence, DeVoss, and others are onboard. The idea behind this is not really religion. It's just a means of controlling religion in order to get more out of people. If an idea is right according to your god beliefs then you will give all you have. I'm in forums where most people think an invisible Jesus is guiding Trump's hand and that Jesus is responsible for our laws and Constitution. These people think I should wake up. I think they should study real history.

This is because today we are the product and we are being sold. We are all being sold right down the river. (Pardon my slavery pun.)

TIL That the term "Agnostic" was coined in 1869 by T.

I find it humorous that the religious keep wanting agnosticism and atheism to be your religion. They claim that you can worship anything. Your car, your wife, your money. All these claims without producing a creed. Very strange.

More vintage fun.... :-)

Yes, we all need to learn more about Witchcraft. It's important to know whether or not they float. We might also justify killing them to get their property. This practice goes on in modern politics as well.

Sad joke in ameriKKKa.

Dumbo wouldn't know a national emergency if it bit him in the ass.

Your whole idea about yourself is borrowed.

There are many myths in life. We create ourselves as one of them by following other myths that seemed to fit our fancy.

Our roads are being ignored because all the money has went to the super rich.

The art of knowing.

A great many things in life should be ignored. Especially today.

The music was better.

This is true, but vinyl is making a comeback. From what I can find out this will work well for the rich and others who have too much money. It's not cheap. Neither is the playback equipment.

I have a horrible memory.

The problem is that Trump supporters do not believe that. In an ongoing argument with one of them I was recently told that I should just look at his accomplishments. The next move was to mention many things she claimed I believe in that were not even talked about. Her last thing was to say that I should stop believing all the bullshit that I am told. My reply was that I wanted to tell her the same thing along with fact checking everything about the liar Trump. We know, of course, that they will not do it. That's coz Trump says it's "fake news."
