Juice

Fox News is constantly pandering to the very worst of human nature in the Guthrie case. As humans we tend to gloat over the misfortune of others in order to breathe easier ourselves. Should Fox enable for profit a most negative way to live? The issue is how much coverage is necessary and one would think at this point, very little. The crime was a burglary gone bad and tragically Nancy is probably buried somewhere in the desert.   

Fox, do you not have producers with some creative juice?

Republican Senator Lisa “mirky” Murkowski has been the senior Senator from the great state of Alaska since 2002 but plays the political game to the beat of a different drummer. She is always playing hide and seek between the Republican and Democrat agendas. What is going on in the world of “mirky” Murkowski? The Save Act is federal overreach? Why have 50 of the 53 Republican Senators wholeheartedly signed on to the Save Act as co-sponsors? BoBo assumes they would disagree with your overreach claim.

The Save Act is fundamental to American values which means that you, “mirky” Murkowski are being anti American. Please allow BoBo to guess as to what is going on in the world of our lady Senator from Alaska. Lisa has a daddy problem. She was gifted with her Senator ship and the political apparatus in 2002 by her father, then Governor and former Senator Frank Murkowski. This gift is a heavy lift for the next generation, measuring up will always be an issue. Frank Murkowski is in his 90’s and long retired.

President Donald Trump has now become the handy object of Lisa’s love/ hate relationship with her father. This love/hate relationship is normal, natural human workings, no disrespect intended. However, Lisa Murkowski is a United States Senator and as such should rise above her feelings and join herself to what is best for America.

Some of us do not believe “mirky” can make a thought out argument against the Save Act. She has to be noticed and as long as she gives in to this feeling, she will not be a creditable Senator who is worthy of the peoples’ respect.

Jail

There are not enough penalties in the Save Act. Allowing for private lawsuits against election officials is a start but individual voters who cast an illegal vote according to the law should face consequences as well, like jail time.

Buffoons

Mr. President, thank you for your unqualified support for passage of the Save Act that requires a photo identification and verified citizenship in order to vote in federal elections. You stand with 80% of the American people. The Save Act has been passed by the House of Representative and our Senators must do likewise. Passage in the Senate must happen, no excuses, filibuster or not, it must happen.

Mr. President, another Executive Action to protect the vote is not good enough. On Election Day, such an Executive Action will be tied up in the courts and prove to be unenforceable in the Blue states.  This is not a solution. To be enforceable, the Save Act must be the Law of the Land, passed by both houses of Congress.

Let’s give our lawmakers a bit at the apple, do they wish to be known as patriots or buffoons?

The historical Christian God statement goes something like the following. Our all-powerful God, the judge and ruler of all worlds, works an eternal future for all believers through the life, death and resurrection of the God/Man Jesus, while sitting on the remote God throne of eternity. Christian theologians call this God statement classical theism. Except for the last hundred or so years, this understanding has been the only Christian God understanding.

Christian theologians have ventured into new territory of late because of the language of science and evolution. Can God belief and our “as is” world coexist? This is “the” question. Some say BoBo is not a recognized theologian scholar so he should just shut up. Maybe so but the classically trained theologians, the experts, are tied economically to Church speak and classical theism, making the possibility of changing language and thinking risky business. Which voice is to be trusted?  

BoBo is only a theologian in the sense that all God believers are theologians, we must tell our neighbors the "why" of our beliefs. Or do we? Maybe this is why Christianity has lost much of its potency. The great tragedy of the Christian church is silence from the pew because asking questions from the pew is also risky business. Some of us do believe that faith is a menu to be talked about and not the blind acceptance of whatever is on the menu.

BoBo and so many others are kind of weird that way.

Big

Social wisdom says, “Don’t speak ill of the dead”. Never being particularly motivated by social convention and because some of our Republican Senators need correction, BoBo speaks to the almost dead. 

Republican Senators with ancient 20^th century politics in mind, why are you blocking the Trump 21^st century America First agenda? Is it only because it is Trump’s agenda and not yours? The America first agenda could also be your agenda. The future is before us as a free country if we face the challenges together. 

Please Senators get with it and think big!

Worthy

The Senate filibuster and blue slips are ancient outlived traditions. No longer can the old boys club hide behind their undemocratic gamesmanship. Assuming that our Republican Senators have the courage to be pro-active, what issues are big enough to bring lasting change in Washington?

Pass the save Act making citizenship with a picture ID required for voting in all federal elections.

Prohibit all federal monies going to sanctuary states and jurisdictions until they comply with Federal Law.

Funding a new presidential face, Donald Trump on Mount Rushmore, reproducing his likeness as depicted in his New York arraignment.     

The vast majority of American citizens would applaud.
