His First Impeachment Trial ~

They told us, all 52 of them, that they had refused to consider the facts, and without further ado, proudly acquitted him. 

Casting a spell ~

The majority of Germans fell victim to Adolf Hitler's strong magic spell.

Abrupt Ending ~

On the town square this morning I watched them wrap a chain around the stem of the massive Christmas tree and hitch it to the back of a tractor. They then dragged it away, down along the main street. People stopped along the sidewalks and watched it passing by.

How Trust is Destroyed ~

Since in office Washington Post has listed 15,413 false or misleading statements made by the President.

The Founding Fathers ~

The good Germans didn't have a mechanism like impeachment to oust Adolph Hitler.

Never Trumper Republicans ~

What did he call his political opponents? "Human scum"?

The Greater USA ~

What about the Kurds, the valiant Peshmerga fighters, who fought and died for us? He abandoned them.

Respect for Women ~

How can a man show respect for any woman who does not loathe a President who brags: " Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything."

Changes Once Held For Impossible ~

Now they make you go out front of a restaurant if you want to smoke a cigarette. Even in cold weather!

Unmatched ~

Tweet Tweet ~
"If Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey."

Thinking back to Nine-Eleven ~

Nine Eleven

On September eleven
when it happened
while we watched
we could not help thinking about
our own thin brick walls
left standing around us
here, in the heartland.

Walled in between
panic and gratitude
we sat gaping,
not noticing
how our helpless tears
would not stop falling.

The Way Things Go ~

And everywhere, continuously, Positive colliding with Negative.

When Will It Ever Stop? ~

He has divided us. It is pulling us down.

Where is the Anger over the Trump Administration? ~

                                              Hamodia

What we need is the courage of an Alexei Navalny. But our boiling nation is just taking this sitting down.

What is Belief? ~

What we believe is merely that which we hope is true.

Observance ~

Over here in Germany the people would protest if you went out and cut your lawn on a Sunday.

Disillusionment ~

When the end is near, a monk who had really been a monk all his life ends up asking if he had not been deluded the whole time, and if what he believed was all made up.

Seeing ~

Let the birds be your prophets and saints,
Let the clouds be your prophets and saints,
Let the flowers be your prophets and saints.
