bubbazero's JournalEaster; When Christianity shows us their Whole Family
Many of various faiths are wonderful, compassionate, thoughtful, caring, giving people. Many exist, even on this board, living lives of meaning and love of humanity rooted in their religious belief. But like any family, religions, (ALL OF 'EM), have certain members or relatives which are crazy, hateful, cruel, arrogant, and downright nincompoops. The vast majority are embarrassed by these individuals, but say nothing. In religion, these bizarre cousins, weird aunts, cruel uncles seem to be growing, (again in all religions) and without restraint from the rest of their family. We even have one political party which embraces and encourages these groups. GOP--God...Over...People. I ask only that we acknowledge the freedom of religion applies to all of us--equally. And lookout for the crazies!Dear POTUS, Just say "I was WRONG, I apologize, I'll do my best to fix it"; Here I'll show you how
Dear DU, recently I posted a thread saying POTUS needed to KEEP TALKING at his daily pressers, so we could document his lies.........After seeing today's example of lies and misinformation I realize I was SO VERY WRONG. I deeply apologize. I've worked around agriculture as a so called "expert" at several times, in several small very focused fields. (trust me I's ain't no x'prt on nuthun) There is misinformation which is annoying, and that which is FUCKING DEADLY. When Donald Trump starts recommending medication to take, w/o any scientifically backed, or medically cleared--peer reviewed studies--that's it. Hydroxychloroquine is a potent drug w/ serious potential side effects under the best of circumstances. I've personally had , yrs ago, experience trying to stop customers from making a shortcut with a product we were selling. The individual who started this shortcut was not informed in this area, and though well known, was not considering possible unintended consequences. But that problem only involved a PRODUCT---NOT PEOPLES LIVES! Donald Trump needs to be told by his cabinet to stop treating these pressers as a campaign event, step back and let the experts dispense the information, and stay the fuck out of the way or they'll invoke the 25th amendment. Again, I was wrong, Donald Trump continuing to speak is just too damn dangerous. Sorry...............(that's how you do it Donald).........the end
OK, TIME TO RELEASE YOUR INNER CRUEL DOMINATING SELF-for therapy--(sort of)
So our president, Commander in Twit, upon disclosure of recommendation to wear a mask-(please, cloth only-leave medical grade for MEDICAL WORKERS) has decided to forego the recommendation and not wear a mask--what is our beloved nation to do?! Never mind the lack of leadership--this is a time for a little therapy. Please list what Donald J Trump should wear, (or not), and why.....................for example I'd suggest a BDSM BALL GAG--WHY?--well deep down we all know he is truly a BOTTOM--(MELANIE's just a rubber bustier and 6in spiked heeled thigh boots away from the top she truly is)...............no offense to either persuasion, but o' to have her WHIP HIM!.....................enjoy
M..A..G..A.
halfway thru morning chores it finally hit me---MAGA---stands for MAKE ALL GROVEL AGAIN--this of course after watching Kushner,(the protégé) and Donald the "Master of Disaster related Grifter" If you, you trite, worthless, little people, want REAL MEDICAL SUPPLIES---then not only must you pay--but you must pay HOMAGE.............(never mind it's OURS to begin with, we bought it, will pay for it, we just want it shipped!) It's either that or MAGA stands for MAKE AMERICA GASP AGAIN---don't want to think on that one
BREAKING: Georgia Rep Govenor, Brian Kemp to announce tomorrow: THE EARTH IS REALLY ROUND
Gov. Kemp has learned in the last 24hrs. that our sacred planet earth is really round! "We just found out, I mean we've been so busy with our state shutdown and all." said Gov. Kemp. But when pressed further, specifically about the earth being the center of the universe, Gov. Kemp refused to accept , in his words, "this crazy, commie, pinko-fake news that the earth revolves around the sun" "why if that were true, then all them there homolibectuals would have a case for not realizzzien them fossil's is tricks of that dirty socialist satan-sanders"
from Last Word w/ Lawrence O'Donnell SO GREAT
4th grader from Boston---same elementary school that O'Donnell attended has sewn (w/ some help from mom) over 820 MASKS to give to first responders!!!! GABY ACADIA -- not sure of spelling on last name -- when I heard the total something got in my eyes. She indicated she can sew approx. 24 / day. Mom is retired Boston police officer 3rd gen Dad is police officer as well. This is what medals are for--not Rush Limbaugh THANK YOU , GABY FOR THE MASKS AND THE INSPIRATION!
why we REALLY do need the networks to carrier Trump's COVID Virus daily briefings
1. Yes, I know; Donald J Trump is treating this daily briefings as though they were a campaign operation---at least in part. BUT, he continues to show his incompetence EVERY SINGLE DAY! If Biden's ad, made up of Trump's exact quotes hurt now, think what they will do in the future!............2. Trump's daily display of stupidity becomes even more obvious when subjected to the comparison/contrast of Governors who ARE SHOWING REAL LEADERSHIP and COMPETENCE. Andrew Cuomo for example; and there will be more as the pandemic spreads. Other states have Leaders--both Democrat and Republican which are CLEARLY more competent and AWARE of the dangers of this pandemic then Trump..................3. THIS IS A NATIONAL EMERGENCY---TO STOP CARRYING FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DAILY BRIEFINGS OF THE SITUATION SMACKS OF PURE, NAKED, SHALLOW PARTISANSHIP--Democrats are better than this---we are better than this.............4.This pandemic will not end with Trumps removal from office in Jan 2021--we will have a lot of work to do to restock, and prepare for a possible 2nd round next year. Possible even this fall--(hope not). Just as FDR was able to restore confidence, even when a few programs instituted by Hoover were coming into place, the Democrats will have a chance to prove that Government can work, and is NECESSARY. Think NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAMS FOR DISEASE ERADICATION AS PRACTICED IN EARLIER YEARS................Avoiding partisanship now will help Democrats to refute and rebut partisanship in the future......................Stay Separate, Stay Well; WE ARE GOING TO NEED YOU ALL!
Cold, Hardnosed, Tough; Love
A thought between chores--from elderly mother, 50 yrs as a nurse, retired, (poor health-with only me as full time caretaker as well as try to help on family farm when I can) As she put it during disorientation episode (Parkinson's induced)....she watches the news and then dreams she's back at hospital--mom's words--WE DON'T CARE WHO THEY ARE--WE DONT CARE HOW MUCH THEY HAVE-- WE DON'T ASK THEIR POLITICS--WE DON'T CARE WHO THEY VOTED FOR--WE DON'T GIVE A DAMN WHO THEY WILL VOTE FOR--WE DON'T HAVE TIME--OUR JOB IS TO SEE THAT THEY LIVE--AND RECOVER SO THAT THEY MAY VOTE AGAIN--NOW MOVE..........Mom was a head nurse at a fairly large clinic and hospital along with working with nurses in training from local nurses college. Having watched and supported her volunteer efforts long after retirement, including medical mission trips overseas--I can tell you these people act -- in the end -- out of passion for what they do, and an inspiring love of their fellow human being. That's all-- now back to work b4 the redhead "nurse" wakes up
OK, Let's try this again?
If Doc Birx thinks that President Dinky Tiny Drump is sooo good at the scientific literature surrounding this pandemic, then will a White House reporter, please, ask Dinky Tiny Drump to spell epidemiology for them......................ps Thank You Brian Williams, (translated from the original North Korean). You may now score yourself 10 bonus points, sir. real points, not the "Trump--I give myself a 10 bullshit kind"
MASH----The Incubator
For those old enough to remember: Watching the Governors and medical people scramble for proper PPE, Respirators, and other vital equipment brings back memories of episode of MASH. Hawkeye, (Alan Alda) and Trapper (Wayne Rogers) efforts to obtain a medical incubator for their unit. Includes my personal favorite scene from series--Col Lambert, (I believe), selling equipment for personal profit--(we'll have lavender in the bath this afternoon--OK DADDY) Problem is this isn't fiction, the body count is real, and there ain't no humor--only rage
