FLORIDA

Is murder legal in Florida? Or only certain types of murder? Maybe interracial murder? One sort of interracial murder may be defacto legal. White kills black? Will there be a State prosecution in the current case? Don't count on it. Maybe a Federal prosceution. To insure fairness, a change of venue may be appropriate. A local jury would never convict.

Presidential Term

Once again, it's time to consider amemding the Constitution concerning Presidential term limits. My vote is for one 6 year term. Under the current 4 year system, the President spends the first 2 years learning the job, and the next 2 years running for re-election.

One more benefit. The grandiose hoopla of Presicential elections would be considerably reduced.

Romney and Russia

Mitt "Rumdum" Romney is totally out of touch to the point of making stupid statements concerning foreigh policy. He has stated that Russia is our number one enemy. Is this man an idiot or what? Has he arisn from the excrement of Barry Goldwater? Or dirty Dicky Nixon? What a horrible prospect that this idiot could become President of the United States. Wake up voters. Do you want peace through strength,or nuke war? A stark choice in the next election. THINK!

Social Security

The Social Security Program was created in 1935 to provide old age, survivors, and disability insurance benefits to workers and their families. This was one of the great achievements of the Roosevelt administration. The "conservatives" fought it tooth and nail, calling it "communism" Now, they all line up to collect the benefits.
The fight is now over what is called "Obamacare" in the Supreme Court hearing. The rightwing is doing their best to have it declared unconstitutional. If they succeed, will the next step be to go after Social Security?
All senior citizens better watch closely what the far right is up to. If you suffer in silence, you will die in silence. The fight is on. You had better join in.

HEALTH CARE

All the folks that are so opposed to government assistance with health care costs should be allowed to opt out. It should be made very clear that if they do opt out and become ill and can't pay the bill, then they die. No help from the government. You don't want to play, you don't want pay, then you will be be allowed to die in peace. No evil government interference.
Sayonara suckers!

GOLDMAN SACHS

is becoming Goldbrick-Sucks. "Greed is good". So is fine wine. However, too much of either will do you in. All things in moderation.

WAR

Sunday March 18 Chronicle. Headline on page A8
"Suspects history sparks debate about multiple tours". Let me tell you what it should spark. Debate about fighting stupid wars, that's what. A song from the Vietnam war days has a line that goes like this: "When will they ever learn?" Obviously we haven't learned yet and probably never will. I'm almost 79 years of age and it seems that most of those years my country has been in a state of war. To paraphrase Shakespeare, "The evil that men do lives after them. The good is oft intered with their bones". So many wars. So many bones. How sad.

THE ART OF POLITICS

"Politics is the art of the possible." Otto von Bismarck

Sometimes I wonder if any of our politicians are aware of the wisdom of von Bismarck.

Far Right

I'm shocked at how far the Republican Party has moved to the far right. Shame on them. Is there no sense of history left in these people? Is there no decency? If they move rightward much further, they should all grow little square mustaches.

SEIG HEIL!

Afghanistan

I heard some "experts" discussing Afghanistan and is there any chance of success there. Some think the chance of improvement is slim to none and we should get out. I say get out and let those unhappy folks determine their fate. The Russians learned hard lessons,and so are we. Or are we? Are we back to "When will they ever learn?"

TIDE LAUNDRY DETERGENT

The tv news comes up with some amazing stories. Thieves are stealing great quantities of Tide detergent for resale or barter. Dirty crooks! Or are they clean crooks? Will this wave of crime cause the crooks to be swept away by the Tide? Or will they come clean and be detered from detergent theft? Watch as this story bubbles up with more details.
The Russians must be laughing at us because of our "mission" in Afghanistan. They had sense enough to realize it was a hopeless quest. They left. Our government in a fit of utter stupidity invaded Afghanistan. Evil begets evil. A United States soldier murdered 16 or more innocent Afghan civilians. Shot them down in cold blood. He should be tried and convicted. Then hanged by his neck in a public square in Kabul, or one of the major Afghan cities. He showed no mercy. He deserves no mercy.

DISGRACE

A United States soldier has brought disgrace upon his country and the Army of his country by killing 16 people in Afghanistan. He should be hanged by the neck until dead. Then we should get out of Afghanistan and never return. Some soldiers of this country have made us look like evil conquerers such as the Nazis of Hitler. This is pure evil. What are we coming to? I deeply resent being made to feel ashamed by some members or our armed forces.
I know that behavior such as this is not unusual, nor has it ever been. I spent a year and 1/2 in the 1950's in the Far East as a member of the USAF. I saw some bad behavior then, and was deeply ashamed that my fellow countrymen would act in such a reprehensible manner
When will we ever learn?

Rational Thought

Religion often prevents rational thought concerning temporal matters. Often it leads to irrational conflicts and wars that rarely come to a good end. We need leaders that are able to THINK. Some of the rightys that are running for President don't seem to have this ability. An itchy finger on the nuclear trigger could lead to the end of the world. There is no heaven. There is no hell. Only the hell of firey conflagration signaling a man made end of time.
We have a President capable of rational and intelligent thought. Don't replace him with a nutcase.

Who will the Repubbys love at their next convention? Mitt the Mutt? Pricky Ricky? Newt the Galoot? None of the above? Obama and the Democrats must be licking their chops at the prospect of running against either Goofus,Doofus or Roofus. Have the Republicans sunk to their lowest level in the past 100 years? Is this the best they can do? How sad it is. The party of Dewey and Eisenhower has sunk out of sight into the swamp of neo-fascisim. I'm sure glad that Joe McCarthy isn't around now. He would be their candidate

"The late" Rush Limbaugh

Is Rush Limbaugh the Senator Joe McCarthy of this political time? McCarthy terrified all politicians until one. Special Council Joseph Welch had the guts to say this to him in a Senate hearing about the Communist party.

Senator, may we not drop this? We know he belonged to the Lawyer's Guild...Let us not assassinate this lad further, Senator; you've done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?"

To paraphrase: Mr. Limbaugh. you've done enough. Have you no sense of decency sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?

I don't think decency is in the Limbaugh DNA.

Rusk Limberger

Ricky the San

Regarding Rick Santorum's rant on gay marriage: As Shakespeare might have said. methinks he doth protest too much. I must question his motives. What's it all about Little Ricky? Is there a psychological underpinning to your thought process? Just thought I'd ask one of the many questions that will arise as you rave on and on.

TORNADO

Tornadoes are a terrible thing that destroy all in their path, whether good or bad, Republican or Democrat, theist or atheist. No favor granted. There is one thing concerning the tornadoes that I await with bated breath. One thing that no one has spoken of yet, as far as I know. That thing is FAULT! The theist Repubbys cannot place the blame on God. So who will take the blame. The Devil? Maybe the devil Obama? Yep! Obama, aka The Devil will take the blame. Bet on it.
