Republican Senators are fools for protecting their cozy senile do-nothing politics that can only mean the end of America. If the American way goes away, as it will without election integrity, so does the rest of the world. This is not about Trump; this is about our children and our grandchildren and their grandchildren.
No Tariff’s and no election integrity? These Rhino Deep State actions are not Trump killers; they are America killers. America is in crisis. America will cease to exist as a free gathering of likeminded peoples within a very few years.
Thank you, Senate Majority leader Thune. Your
name is now mud in the history books.
Folks. how do we stop this betrayal? Can it be stopped? Civil war? National strike? Everyone could start their own shadow company and steal from the taxpayer and never pay taxes. No more rules because the enemy within, the Democrats and the radical left have not one!

The most vulgar three letter word in every language is OLD. There was a time long ago when this word carried a sense of pride, perseverance and joy. In today’s culture, the word OLD means all used up. Culture is for the young.
We all age
differently but once in a while we are startled when looking into the mirror,
can that old guy be me? No way, some of us define Old as only that which is
behind us. Those days are the old days, today we stare into the future with
every sunrise, this future is always NEW.
The NEW is what we make of it.

Tariffs are not direct taxation on the people of America. For my 81 years every president has spread the wealth of America around the world because they refused to use the tariff tool in the president’s tool bag. At the behest of the globalist Deep State in Washington, both Republican and Democrat presidents have off shored our wealth, factories, intellectual properties and jobs. Every one of them should be in jail, they have all betrayed their oath of office.
In every
case, the Deep State in Washington was at the helm of the executive branch of
our government. They were not elected but they were calling the shots. At
election time they enabled only candidates who would govern with their
globalist intentions. They enabled show ponies of both flavors to supervise the
destruction and impoverishment of everyday Americans and our magnificent capitalist economics, ensuring the welfare
state of America.
Then came
Donald Trump, the people’s president! The Deep State saw the writing on the
wall; this man was dangerous. Every political tool inside and out of government
was thrown at him in order to bring him down because Donald Trump owed them
nothing. This president was not taking orders for he actually believed that the
people were the first priority of any president. This president was and is a free spirit.
The latest tool for doing the bidding of the Deep State is the United States Supreme Court that has ruled tariffs to be a tax on the people and therefore illegal. Which is worse, some prices being higher because of tariffs or no jobs, no factories and no loyal supply chain making all of America powerless on the world stage? The Supreme Court got it wrong again and this time it wounds the fortunes of all the peoples of America.
The 6 to 3 ruling against Trump tariffs is an abomination that makes America unsafe. Are you listening, Roberts, Gorsuch and Amy Comey Barret?

Show Pony Republican politicians on their knees for the Deep State.
Playing it
safe and on orders from the Deep State, Chief Justice Roberts of the Supreme Court of the United States decided that tariffs are a tax and therefore illegal. Somehow, he convinced Justices
Gorsuch and Amy Comey Barrett to co-operate. Anything to be anti-Trump.
Republican Senators Tillis of North Carolina, McConnell of Kentucky and Lisa “murky” Murkowski of Alaska, all of whom endorse and want voter fraud because a house or nation divided cannot stand. And it is easier for the Deep State to control.

Democratic governments are a tough sled and so very rare. America is blessed and spoiled by our history but our inherited freedoms may have run their course. Why you ask? A true democracy gives all the people the responsibility to choose their leaders and then hold them accountable. However, voters are human beings who will avoid good capable leadership and will not expend the energy to hold their elected leaders accountable. The people inevitably become passive.
Every try at
a democracy in history has suffered from this truism. Early Greek governments
made a few stab at the democratic way but without exception they soon slipped
into some form of tyranny. A tyranny is a form of government that is led by the
few of us and the people willingly become bystanders and victims.
Plato, the
Father of Western Philosophy (428 to 347 B.C.), had an aversion to the democratic
form of government. The people voted for the death of Socrates his mentor who
accepted to the point of death the will of the people. Angered, Plato called
the democratic way a “ship of fools”. To Plato, a democracy is like sailing off
on a long voyage without a Captain/Navigator at the helm. Everyone wants to set
a different course.
Jean-Jacques
Rousseau (1712 to 1778 A.D.) the Swiss philosopher said that if the people are of
the gods, the government would be democratic. (But) so perfect a government is
not for men. In the history of the world, government for and by the people has
never long survived for this reason. Plato and Rousseau left government to the tyranny
of the capable thinkers.
This was the
historical atmosphere in 1776 America. The colonies had experienced the boot of
the unjust tyranny of the powerful English Crown. When rebellion became the
only alternative, the thinkers among us gathered to devise a workable democracy
resulting in the plan, the United States Constitution (1788). This was the best
hope for the survival of the American democracy with its separation of legislative
powers, judicial powers and executive powers. These three powers have seemed to
be at war for 250 years but somehow the people have had their say.
Then there
came the Deep State tyranny, the 100 year old other executive branch that is
not in the Constitution. The Deep State conspiracy is not elected but is always
alive in Washington, hiring and firing show pony politicians to control the mob
while the Deep State makes the decisions that matter. One might ask, where does
all the money go? The Deep State tyranny is by subterfuge.
Then there
came Donald Trump to upset the applecart. When he came down the escalator in
2016, the Deep State went to war against Donald Trump because the Deep State
understood that this guy actually believes that Constitutional baloney. This guy
could not be bought. The war rages on to this very hour. The show pony Democrats
were and are only taking orders from the Deep State, to a man or woman, they
are not that smart. The Deep State is smart, after all, the system in Washington
is theirs.
Some of you are doubters. We are back to Plato. The popular voting mob will eventually choose national democratic destruction. Please, not now!
The people will not go quietly into the night as passive tools of the tyranny of the Deep State. Vote for the America beyond your nose.

If matter is eternal, then nothing matters. BoBo is sorry to be so blunt but it doesn’t take a genius to figure this one out. God is eternal or matter is eternal. If matter is eternal, life is only a 60 minute game in which we struggle for the next breath amidst ever changing circumstances. If matter is eternal the best we can hope for is to give the next guy a better shot at a better limited future. There is no end game.
The
philosophers call the only possible end game God. God is described as the only
permanence in our world. The philosophers say there is no “potentiality” (change)
in God. After a shallow exploration of the great thinkers, most
philosophers want to go there, some do and some don’t but they all talk about
God. We all are at different places in our lives but every thinking person
comes to understand, sooner or later, that if there is only matter, life has no
meaning. Our world is depressingly pointless. We fill our days with only matter. Some of us may ask, why are we here?
This is
where we are as a species. This is where we are in America. Look around, shared
human dignity is at a low ebb and the stock market rolls on. The other guy is
fodder to be used in our drive to validate our “now” with politics and money. Families
are torn asunder, new life is killed in the womb for the sake of expediency and
the homeless are but a political tool. Suicide is merely another choice. Sick
commercialism and killing to protect our space is somehow righteous. Life is
about career, security, getting high, sexual escapades or the glamor of notoriety. Ours is largely
a culture of death, a nothing culture.
Before there
was nothing, there was and is God. God is ultimate unity, perfect wholeness, completeness
and total freedom. That God, who was not content with perfection, willed matter into being in a flash of light. Because matter is of God, everything matters. It matters most how we use or abuse matter.

What is God all about in this our world? We have been trying to answer this question in a multitude of ways for thousands of years as reflected in the thinking within various religions. Every religion has an answer. How would you answer this question? The theologians and philosophers among us tend to complicate the issue making our understanding beyond the reach of we average Joe’s. Could we not use a common sense approach?
Two answers
from two different religions are particularly relevant to our time. The faith
of the Koran says that God is all about JUSTICE and the spiritual believer should
defend God by meeting out God justice. Is it any wonder that Iran’s Khomeini
wants nuclear weapons to blow up our Godless world? Blowing up our world is
doing God a favor, it is the extreme mission that is taught in some Mosques.
Christianity
has its share of dooms day thinking and the Bible does have a few references to
the justice of God. This, however, is not the whole story for God is most times
pictured as a God of love, God love. You and BoBo really don’t know the full
meaning of God Love but we common sense people know what it is not, blowing up
our world. God desires our freely given loving respect and all that we
experience in this world is to teach us about God love that flows like a river.
We say, thank
you God, for this teaching moment.

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.

Republican Senator Lisa “murky” 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 “murky” 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, “murky” 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 “murky” 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.

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.

Senator John Thune, you and your Senate Republican buddies are a sorry lot. The SAVE ACT is not routine legislation. The SAVE ACT is more than just another day at the office. If anyone, in any other state or country, can get on the Fulton County Georgia voter rolls by only claiming an empty lot or a UPS mailbox as a vote qualifying residence, our lawmakers and politicians in Washington are sitting on their hands, in their ivory tower. Hell, these fraudulent voters could be in China and voting by mail!
Without the SAVE ACT, voting in federal elections is meaningless. A once in a life time national leader such as Donald Trump may swing a few elections but the voice of the 80% majority of our people is doomed over the long haul without the Save Act. The SAVE ACT is NATIONAL SALVATION.

Who are you few Republican Senators opposing the passage of the Save Act, requiring voter I.D. and citizenship? We are told that there are 49 Senate Republican co-sponsors of the Save Act. We are told that 75% of all voters of both parties and every ethnicity want fair federal elections, such elections can only happen with this legislation.
Great but were do the remaining remaining Republican Senators stand? They are being very quiet and cowardly hiding. Stand up if you can and explain your opposition to the Act.
Our radical left dominated Democrat Party will not abide by the filibuster if and when push should come to shove. Failure to pass the Save Act now will ensure the Democrats win in every election from now through eternity. Game over.
Be courageous if you can, stand up, explain yourselves and take the heat. Majority leader Thune has promised a vote on the Save Act, so you can't hide as in the old days of the Senate.

Eternity could be like the water flow as it goes down the drain. There is a rotation much like a tornado around a central axis. The axis being the blossoming joyful eternal party.
The philosophers question how freedom will work in eternity. In such a scenario, each of us will be free to willingly descend to the God Party or remain on the outer edges of the eternal tornado. All of us, religious or not, spiritual or not, when confronted with the alternative, will say that the party is for me. By letting go of our self-centeredness and false assumptions we are then party bound. Go with the flow.
Call it imagination or speculation but why not?

All of the sudden Politico is an authority on the will of the American people? Do only 65% of Americans support military intervention overseas? Ask the relatives of Americans killed by the Tyrant of Tehran in the last 50 years. Ask the brave veterans with missing legs and arms that are paraded on TV by our do gooder organizations. Ask the still living protesters in Iran who are now and forever without friends and family members. Ask the 20.000 protesters now being held hostage by the Khomeini making the promised help much too costly. Some of us will not forget.
The old Snake is alive for now but his out of fashioned world is already dead. The old snake is alive for now in his underground bunker but the time will come when that bunker will be a tomb. Count on it!

There is a war waging against our America. The revolutionaries call themselves Democrats as they have called themselves Democrats in every other revolution in the last 200 years. They are not. Their goal is simple, they are about trashing another country so that they can get absolute power over the people. Power is their only concern and it matters not how much chaos and suffering they have to dump on the people.
What is treasonous is the rest of the Democrat Party that is asleep at the switch and accepting the present turmoil as just another liberal verses conservative political disagreement. The angry mobs are so much more. The sleepy time Democrats who refuse to confront the crazies are no longer Americans. You who think of yourselves as Americans but still vote and carry water for the crazies are victims of the greatest self-delusion known to man.
Of course, the sleepy time Democrats will continue to blame Trump for their treason. President Trump is an easy target for the lefties, he is a rich and competent white dude who will not be buffaloed. Trump they fear because he earned his wealth. Democrats have been sucking the blood out of America for decades, how else did Obama, Hillary and Bill, Biden and his sleazy, criminal brothers and sisters get rich?

We can only express the God kind a love (reality) as we freely detach from the priorities of this world. One of my maybe dreams of the last few years is to sell the house, buy a small sailboat, point the bow west and sail on. Could it be my “Moby Dick” or “Two Years before the Mast” nostalgia? The first chore in such an adventure, after loading up with provisions, is to bring in the dock tether lines.
We can’t go west still tied to the dock. America is corrupt: the love of money, compromising for personal security and that sex stuff keep us tethered and gathering barnacles at the dock. We need a spiritual revolt and then our desired national greatness will set our adventure course.
Religion of whatever flavor is like bringing in the lines tying us to the dock and then just mooring at anchorage in the bay. Almost adventure.

Freedom is all that matters. Freedom is all that matters to God and therefore to we humans. Everything else is window dressing. This is the only possible explanation for this our violent, dangerous and deadly “as is” world. If ours is a God created order, all of our experienced craziness has to have a God function. Why did God so design our world?
Why are
children born without arms? Why are political protesters gunned down in the
streets by a tyrant? Why cancer or heart disease? Why war? Why an airliner crash
over the Potomac? Why are Chinese pathogen labs in our residential
neighborhoods? Maybe evil is somehow our fault, we dump enough garbage into our
lives resulting in suffering but that can’t be the whole story, that can’t be the
whole mind of God. Why is it normal for the innocent to be victims of evil?
Answer: because
only in this our world can we get a taste of God freedom and learn to value that
freedom. Progress is a slow walk.

The ladies should not have been given the right to vote. Call BoBo a chauvinist, a deplorable or whatever but it may have been a mistake. The Hillary’s of America are nothing short of criminals.

There are two flavors of universalism. Christian universalism says that that God through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ wills the eventual saving of all peoples, believers and nonbelievers alike. Because God wills this future for all of us, it will happen, in this earthly life or the timelessness of eternity.
God
universalism says that God is not a dictator pulling strings in our world but
is hidden among us working for the eventual union of all peoples with God. God
would not be God if what God wills is only a future for the few. Our beginning
was created by God and we all shall one day be a part of the God willed eternal
future.
God only for
the few is the Christian theological tradition. St. Augustine started this
heaven and hell tradition some four hundred years after Jesus walked among us.
From time to time other theologians have done some fine tuning but the gist of
this God thinking has stood in place as the predominate understanding about
God.
The Radical Democrat leftists and their sugar daddies are a thin minority of unhappy and unaccomplished people who blame the rest of us for their misery. This 20% minority create all the noise, the chaos on our streets, the directed violence and the defrauding of the public trust. Anything goes because their lives are without significance so they go about creating their own meaning apart from God.
World history has shown that if this thin minority makes enough noise, silences enough opposing voices and cheats on enough elections, they will win and gain "almighty power" over the quiet, honest, peace loving folk. Will this minority destroy America as it has done so many times and in so many places, maybe, maybe not? It depends upon the happy people and those of us who take personal responsibility for our own shortcomings.
We who believe will not go into hiding and surrender
the farm.

BoBo is confused. Was it not just four years ago that a black Capital Hill Security guard shot and killed a white woman trespasser for attempting to enter the Capital Building on January 6? The murderer fired the shot from a distance and was not facing an immediate threat to his life or safety. Where is the justice in that?
George Floyd
was inadvertently killed by a Minneapolis Police officer after violently
resisting arrest four years ago. The officer, Derek Chauvin, was convicted by
Minneapolis justice to 22.5 years in prison. He then was stabbed twenty two
times while in prison by another inmate. Four other officers were convicted of
lesser charges and were also sent to prison. Where is the justice in all that?
The
Minneapolis crazies who were killed or wounded this month because they posed an immediate
threat to federal officers up close and personal, placed themselves in harm’s
way. In a real sense, they asked for it. Thankfully, federal officers while
doing their duty are not subject to Minneapolis justice. All of us know, it is
crazy to fight with armed police anywhere and at any time. The rest of America
is not like the useful idiots in the sinkhole up north.
Some of us

Flat out, the existence of a God of any sort cannot be proven. There is no book, no bible, no history, no testimony, no martyr and no level of faith that proves God. Anyone who is aware of our human landscape, intellectually and experientially, must agree that the existence of a God or Gods cannot be beyond argument. To think otherwise is to live in a dream world. There are those of us who think and believe that God can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt (whatever that is) but pure God existence has always and remains an argument.
