Rush attacks Chelsea

Everyone who speaks for a candidate is fair game for the media.

Even Chelsea.

However, mocking a person's choice of words is more than a little immature. It brought to mind the neighborhood bully/idiot who because he could not think of anything to say, no come-back whatsoever, would spew out the same words he just heard in a silly sarcastic chant.

That's how I perceive what Rush Limbaugh did to Chelsea's speech promoting her Mother's healthcare plan.

Chelsea used words such as "chronically" and "acute" when speaking of those without health care consistently and at some point during a given year, respectively.

Any writer or reader for that matter, knows that these words are used to describe many unhealthy conditions facing our world, not just physical conditions.

I find it sad that so many people take Rush's words to heart, as if he were a religious leader of the ages. The truth is, now that these ultra-conservatives aren't happy with their party's probable choice for the Presidency, they want to pick up their toys and go home. They say they just won't vote if the party isn't going to play the game their way.

Now they know how mainstream Americans have felt throughout many a presidential campaign.

That's not a valid reason for not voting people.

Grow up, please.

Support Term Limits for Supreme Court Justices

The following is a letter I have sent through automation to write my Representatives encouraging them to support term limits for Supreme Court Justices. Feel free to copy and paste the following letter that I rewrote from the previously formatted letter that will appear in the link provided at the bottom of this article. Or, use their letter. Or, better yet, rewrite it for yourself as I have done.  When you go to the link, your representatives will automatically appear when you enter your address.  This is such a simple way to contact your representatives in Washington, D.C.  Topic - government reform or judicial Letter: Thank you for your service to our country as a representative of the people. Integrity still matters to most people. Unfortunately, we are living in an era where we can no longer depend on one's conscience to dictate or control individual actions. I, and the majority of Americans, have lost faith in the Supreme Court’s ability to act as a neutral arbiter ...

Easter Witch

My love of cultural anthropology and my studies of world religions have enriched and enlightened my life. I am always seeking new information about other cultures because not only is it educational, but it also brings into sharper focus how much we have in common with each other, not only across cultural and national boundaries, but even throughout time. This is particularly true with traditions and holidays. Imagine my delight to learn of the Easter Witch! In Sweden and Finland, Easter traditions are similar to Halloween traditions in the U.S. They combine the use of colored Easter eggs and candy, and the children dress up, mostly as little witches. They go door to door, offering their willow twigs, and in return for treats of candy, they offer a little blessing which they recite. Virvon, Varvon! (These words indicate the Witch is waving their willow switch!) Tuoreeks, Terveeks (Fresh, Healthy -) Tulevaks, Vuodeks! (- Forthcoming Year!) Vitsa sulle! (Twig for you!) Pal...

Hawley Saga

Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri  Hawley - Business Insider Three things that make the Hawley saga so humorous: 1. The fact that as he entered the building on Jan. 6th, he fist saluted the very people he became terrified of and ran away from. 2. He is currently writing a book about masculinity and the lack thereof, scheduled for release in May, 2023, according to GoodReads. (Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs by Josh Hawley)  3. The third thing? A little speech he made last week about not running or cowering from liberals (apparently he just fears and runs from his supporters).  Clip of Hawley on Twitter "Washington is full of tough people. Currently, there are 91 members of Congress with military experience. Moreover, there are several former first responders: two former sheriffs, one police chief, three other police officers, one former fire chief and a former firefighter. There are also two ex-CIA employees and one FBI agent. Republican ...
