The intent of this blog is to promote human equality, human progress, human peace and justice, and optimism. To accomplish this, to encourage the discussion of ideas after identifying and discovering problems, and then creating positive solutions for "we the people," in order to provide for the "general welfare" and "domestic tranquility" of America now and its "posterity" into the future. To encourage an emphasis on separation of religion and state for all, no matter if this is for those "of faith" in a Maker / Creator (Deists, God-loving people, Christians, various people of spirituality) and atheists or agnostics.

Fascist Republicans

Congressman Tom Rooney speaks the Republican line, which is out of touch with reality.  I have witnessed Medicare (the “government”) when it does NOT interfere with the doctor-patient relationship.  I have witnessed Big fat greedy pig private insurance when it DOES interfere with the doctor-patient relationship, insists on having it’s own way – even when procedures are more expensive – and THEN has the nerve to ask my employer for an increase in health insurance premiums.

The reaction to what I say?  My bet is – let’s see how to screw this loudmouth (like me) – rather than taking to heart what is being said.  The truth hurts, Mr. Rooney.  The truth is you wield a big loudmouth stick of conformity, impressing fear upon Americans to believe the Republican-Party ideology – and it hurts when confronted with the truth about situations.

The communists said utopia is gained when everyone thinks the same.  Hitler and Mussolini said utopia is gained when everyone thinks the same.  The Roman Catholic church and numerous right-wing religious groups say, utopia is gained when everyone thinks the same.  The Republicans say there is utopia when everyone thinks the same.  In order to get everyone to think the same, we reduce funding for education, claiming there is not enough money.  Then we spend money on frivolous paper-pushing and ambulance-chasing lawyers who overcharge.  Not enough money for teachers, but enough money to support more lawyers per capita in this nation than there are in other Western nations where healthcare is less costly.  Yet, no jobs for teachers, but … for the lazy unproductive jobs to push papers in accounting and law – plenty of GOOD-PAYING jobs!

Mr. Tom Rooney, you should wake up to what is happening out there.  It’s the economy, stupid.  And a single-payer health insurance plan underwritten by private insurance truly competing with one another – rather than paying big executive bonuses.

Healthcare is a right.  Nixon and Haldeman set up the health environment we have today.  Prior to that, doctors and dentists actually treated patients in order to HEAL them, not to make money – as the number one priority.  The excessive greed can only be ended in one way – rid us entirely of “Tricky Dicky Care” and give us a single-payer universal medicine plan.  Period.

Stop the lawyer fascination of prioritizing the “writing” of legislation and provide something meaningful.

And to lawyers like Rooney, you work for us – the people of your district, not for the Republican Party and the lobbyists.  You also do not work exclusively for the Palm Beach Gardens wealthy pigs or the Fort Myers wealthy pigs or for your church.  You work for ALL of us.

If the members of Congress put their heads together to solve our problems – the way scientists (not lawyers, thank GOD no lawyers!) did in order to return Apollo 13 to this earth – then we might actually see solutions.  Instead, we see a bunch of ideological pigs paid off by big corporations wishing to invoke what is best for – ME, ME, ME – the ones with money.  We need solutions for society, not the ideology of fat pigs like the Koch brothers.

Michelle Bachman, the Homophobe

It’s been a long time!

“Judge not lest ye be judged.”  My grandmother often said this to me.  It seemed irritating as a kid to be lectured with some quote presumably from the Bible.  But in actuality, it has stuck.

Michelle Bachman needs to learn about this quote.  She may claim she has a “loving” way to “convert” gay people, but the fact she refuses to acknowledge people are gay tells me she is being judgmental.  So right back to Michelle Bachman:  by judging others, you are blaspheming our Creator.

John 1:1 speaks about the “Word” sent to the earth.  John 3:16-17 says, “For God so love the world he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.  God sent his Son to the world not to condemn the world but to save the world.”  The Word – Son of God – sent to the earth with a message about God and his love – not hatred – for humans of all kinds.

My grandmother also told me, “actions speak louder than words.”  The message of the “Word” was in His actions which speak louder than the words which came from His mouth.  Jesus Christ never condemned abortion or homosexuality.  Jesus Christ was very angry over deceptive greedy people ripping off the common folk while they were attempting to be true to God with their sacrifices.

“Now stop right there,” you say.  “Jesus spoke about fornicators and adulterers.”  Yes, indeed, He did.  But what is the root of the problem regarding fornication?  Is it sex or is it greed and selfishness?  Furthermore, if people like Michelle Bachman are going to point fingers at homosexuals, they are wrong.  There are more heterosexual fornicators in the workplaces of America than there are homosexual fornicators.  Homosexuals make up only 10% of the population, so by mere statistics, there are more heterosexual fornicators than there are homosexual ones.  So, why do the dimwitted Bible-thumping proof-texters point fingers at homosexuals?  Get over it.

JESUS NEVER CONDEMNED HOMOSEXUALITY!  (He never condemned abortion, either – another issue).  He DID condemn, with his actions, people like the American corporate CEOs – the ones which Charles Rangel wished to tax heavily on their bonuses (due to their extreme greed and deception).

But alas! Charles Rangel, like Jesus Christ, was figuratively “crucified!”  And that is the fear of people like Michelle Bachman and others as to why they will take a stand against a minority of people in this nation who don’t have as much money as the greedy CEOs.  She preaches her version of morality, but ignores the morality of greedy heterosexual fornicators and CEOs – and those who caused the problems – and continue to cause them – for this economy.  The important issues should be about the economy and providing jobs and opportunities.  These issues are not important to Michelle Bachman.  But get her in the White House so she can appoint new Supreme Court justices who will condemn abortionists and homosexuals.  That is her true desire, along with numerous other Republicans.

“Judge not lest ye be judged.”  “Jesus did not come into this world to condemn the world but to SAVE the world.”  I will not judge Michelle Bachman.  But Jesus Christ DID say it was okay to act in self-defense.  We may have to “turn the other cheek at first,” but Jesus Christ did not endorse the idea of sitting around like a bunch of wimps constantly being screwed.

Many people may believe what Bachman says, but the road to hell is wide and spacious and many will be on it.

Crucifixes in European schools?  Once again, the Roman Catholic Church doing the same thing a communist dictator does:  utopia is only possible if everyone thinks the same thing. 

A European court stupidly (without considering the rights of others) allowed the Roman Catholic Church to FORCE what IT considers RESPONSIBILITY upon citizens, running rough-shod over the RIGHTS of many people.  To many PROTESTANTS, symbols are never considered for their use because these things usurp worship away from our Creator.  The pope is ignorant about God the Creator and forces ignorance down people’s throats.

The article about this event mentioned those who would resent the presence of the crucifix:  Muslims and atheists. The article said little about Protestant Christians who reject symbols.  Once again, people are writing articles in the news and don’t present all the facts. 

The Roman Catholic Church pushes a judgment upon all.  Jesus Christ said, “Judge not lest you be judged.”  The Roman Catholic Church judges.  It is blasphemous.

I would resent a crucifix being in my classroom – as a student.  As a teacher/professor, I would never place one in the classroom. 

People need to seek wisdom, not certainty.  I am a Protestant Christian and very happy I have been trained in this way.  It would be judgmental on my part to say, screw the Roman Catholic Church, so I won’t.  Perhaps the next thing the Roman Catholic Church will do is to treat all Protestants in the same manner that Martin Luther and others were treated – taking away our professions and our money.  In that case, screw the church, which I say in self-defense.

He/she ain’t heavy, he/she is my brother/sister.

“This is the day our Creator has made.”

“Seek wisdom.”

“The love of money is the root of all kinds of injuriuos things.”

“Give to Caesar [the government] his due.”  (Jesus Christ).

“God so loved the world that he gave his ownly begotten Son, that whomever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.  God sent His Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but to save the world.”

“Judge not lest ye be judeged.”

“Ye who is innocent throw the first stone [at the prostitute].” (Jesus Christ)

“Love God and love your neighbor as yourself.” (Jesus Christ describing the basis of all laws)

Jesus Christ angrily overturned the tables of the greedy money-worshiping money changers saying, “you have made the house of God a den of thieves.”  He acted with violent anger two times over-turning the money changers’ tables.  He never acted angrily at fornicators, adulterers, homosexuals, abortionists, prostitutes, or any others.  In fact, he asked the crowd about to stone a prostitute whether there was anyone in the crowd who was without sin so as to be able to cast the first stone.  No one came forward.

“Judge not lest ye be judged.”

“Thou shall not murder…”

The 10 commandments describes a “law” against murderers.  Rick Scott, Scott Walker, and many others will have the blood of murder on their hands as they remove opportunities for the Middle Class in America.  Their heavy-handed, stubborn agenda creates an environment of violence, thievery, and, yes, murder.  These guys – and those at Fox News (and others) are responsible.   The BLOOD is on the hands of ruthless dictators funded by greedy individuals such as the Koch brothers.  They are SOBs, buggers, bullocks, and all else which describes selfish, self-centered, greedy individuals.

“Judge not lest ye be judged.”  I guess these bullocks are NOT going to hell.  Beg your pardon.  Where are they going?

Soren Kierkegaard said:   “Life can only be understood backward, but it must be lived forward.

Scott Walker types in diapers understand NOTHING from the past and are attempting to carve a future feudal land/corporation/slave world.  It did not work in the past.  It cannot work in the future – and then expect peace and justice in the world.

United we stand, divided we fall!

There are many solutions for Florida, but Rick Scott ignores them all.  A coward who seeks power and power only.  Scott has no concern for human beings, but worships money.  Coward.  Deceiver.  Liar.  Recall him!

Silence = sorrow and sadness for a departed loved one.  God bless.

Jeb Bush is a liar. Anyone who believes that pensions are a problem, whether in corporations or government – PROVE IT!  PROVE IT!  PROVE IT! Otherwise, you guys like Jeb Bush and Rick Scott are all a bunch of liars and cowards unwilling to face facts.

In Europe, corporations there DO NOT adhere to short-term investments which cause greed and provide CEOs with extravagant UNDESERVED bonuses. These corporations provide pensions. The government collects from salaries 5% each to pay for healthcare (in some nations). The money stays with HEALTHCARE, not the general budget used to blow up other nations.  Across the board, European corporations have HIGHER PROFIT MARGINS, together with pensions, single-payer healthcare, long-term corporate goals, and SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. Better PROFITS!  BETTER PROFITS – than American corporations.

Jeb Bush is a liar.  The tea party lies to American people.  Rick Scott is a liar.  Prove that the ONLY solution is to remove pensions.  Prove that it’s pensions which cause state budgets to be in bad shape.  PROVE IT!  PROVE IT! PROVE IT! 

Jeb Bush and Rick Scott are liars and cowards.  Prove there are no other solutions to reduce the budget deficits.  PROVE IT!  PROVE IT!  PROVE IT!  Prove there are NO OTHER SOLUTIONS worthy of discussion.  Cowards unwilling to look across a table at the other side and hammer out solutions.  COWARDS.  What about the solution to equalize taxation for Internet businesses with those in the local mall.  The budget deficit could be eliminate IMMEDIATELY.  Why don’t we do this?  Why do you liars talk about “free markets” but then have some businesses collect taxes for sales, but others NOT!  WHY?  This is not an equal free market.

Jeb Bush is  a traitor.  George Bush is one, too.  Each have more interest in imposing the models of dictatorships from other nations rather than developing what is truly American – with American labor working hand-in-hand.  While John Ellis Bush was governor of Florida, he spoke on Florida Public Radio (that’s why his buddies wish to scrap public radio – because it tells the truth).  John Ellis Bush remarked about how American higher education should follow the lead of China and India.  What?  American higher education is classified as the best in the world!  Unless the obstructionists like Bush and Bush destroy it!  Why should we follow the model of these nations?  What is wrong with AMERICA!  Traitors.  Unwilling to understand the strengths in this nation, just tear down everything – based on fascist ideals of corporate greed.  Forget that we have some positives in this nation.  The Bush brothers forget it.  George Bush thought Pinochet’s example of pensions in Chile was better.  What’s wrong with what we have where we deduct our money through FICA?  What’s wrong with it?  If the greedy SOBs leave the retirement fund alone, then many of us who have contributed into that – and into Medicare – could reap the benefits.  But perhaps the Bush brothers wish to give it all away to immigrants and fat pigs in corporations – then claim there is nothing left.  Stealing OUR money which many of us have contributed for YEARS!  BASTARDS!  LIARS!  COWARDS! 

Now Jeb Bush thinks it best for state budgets to shed pensions by going broke!  That’s right, according to stupido Jebbie, states should declare bankruptcy!  Screw you, Mr. Bush.  There is no evidence that pensions are the problem – otherwise – PROVE IT!  PROVE IT!  PROVE IT!  You liar and coward.

In fact, once again, the man who lied to Floridians telling us that China and India have better models of higher education lies once again by promoting China’s retirement policies.  No pensions.  The children support parents in retirement – the COMMUNIST WAY.  Rather than American INDEPENDENCE in old age, Jebbie proposes that when we age, we lose our independence – like the Chinese COMMUNISTS DO.  Coward.  Looks down upon Chavez and Castro, but unable to stand up to the CHINESE COMMUNISTS.  Bullies the little guys, but cannot handle the big guys – COWARDS.  LIARS – both Jebbie and Rick Scott and others.  Screw the deceptive bastards – all of them. 

And Daddy Bush – loves the dictatorial Saudi Arabians – dicatators.  DICTATORS worse than any we have seen before.  SCREW THE DICTATORS AND THE AMERICAN BENEDICT ARNOLDS who, with their money, prop up the foreign dictators – and hold Americans captive to right-wing fascist ideals about sex, alcohol, and all else.  That is not virtue, it’s lying and deception – things that Jesus Christ DISLIKED.  Jesus Christ disliked greed and selfishness, too.  But boy is there plenty to go around with the Bush family.  Oh, I forget, perhaps these traitors better understand Islam and wish to force that religion down our throats.  Why would these s***heads be concerned about the TRUE teachings of Jesus Christ?  They support atheists in Chinese communism and Muslims in Saudi Arabian oil.  No wonder.  Screw the American traitors who support Saudi and Chinese s*** – then proclaim this as patriotism – forcing their lousy brand of patriotism upon all of us.  I can tell the difference between a cup of horse s*** and a cup of vanilla ice cream.
