Bud Lite

I did not read articles about Kid Rock shooting cans of Bud Lite. Read article about M. T. Greene who tweeted:

"I would have bought the king of beers, but it changed its gender to queen of beers." Her tweet included a photo of Coors Lite in trunk of her car. Alongside of Easter basket and what looked to be bags of Easter candy. I wonder if she is putting cans of beer in kiddie's baskets?

As if a beer can change its name. Along with loss of "M & M sexy go-go boots", I guess GOP now attacking company slogans. Maybe she and Kid will start a campaign to shoot Clydesdales now? 

Twitter users were quick to point out that Coors Lite has been a long time advocate for LGBT.  Some posted images of Coors Pride print ads. 

FabricatorGeneral wrote on the Newsweek article comment section: 

"Republicans always run with reflexive, emotional reactions without actually thinking things through.  It's their entire brand: latch on to the anger that pops up whenever you see something you don't like and indulge it to an illogical extreme.

Remember that time they went out and bought Keurigs and Nikes only to film themselves destroying them...not recognizing that those companies had already gotten their money so they wouldn't care about what they did with their products?"

MWM is "laughing at the idea that Bud Light and Coors Light are 'beer'."

Secession ~ 1975

Other secession comments; almost all agreed that divorcing red states from blue or secession was a great idea.

Democrats say, then Red states no longer get money from Blue states that support them. No more aid to Texas, New Orleans, after hurricanes or Alabama tornadoes, thank you very much. 

Mawas or GOP hate Democrats ~ Communists is common slur. Drag queens, CRT, other stuff being "shoved down their throats." Reality, it is Christian Right that demands we obey their rules. No women shall be allowed to get treatment for ectopic pregnancy, have a D & C, and shall be forced to give birth to a stillborn baby. Supreme Court gave states the right to deny liberty based on gender. Who is forcing who?

One or two people who commented showed signs of intelligence. My words; do we build a wall around Texas, requiring passports for them to travel to the U.S. of A.? What happens to Interstate highways, paid for by U.S. of A. government? Cross country trains? One asked about commerce between states ~ export/import, tariffs, more laws? Another pointed out today's military as compared to 1861. Any state that tried to remove themselves from nation would be defeated in, I think, poster said, 30 minutes. 

I suggest people look at the 1975 Electoral College map. California was red, Texas and New York were blue. Demographics change, people change party affiliations. There are not red states, there are no blue states, there are states with diverse populations. Would a Green be allowed to live in a Red State? A Libertarian in a Blue State. Ridiculous, unintelligent idea. 

We either live together or perish together. China/Russia would simply love a Divided States of America. Peeps need to stop hating and try listening and understanding others. I understand why some people are opposed to doctor assisted termination of pregnancies. 

But I do not understand why they do not understand all the reasons why the choice belongs to the woman and her doctor. Prove that life begins at conception. Most females do not know they are pregnant until missing a period or two. I had a cousin who did not know she was pregnant until she went into labor.

How can that be? Change of life baby, they used to be called. At that age, the chubby lady was moving towards obesity. Her menstrual cycle had already stopped. She had not reason to suspect the weight gain had to do with pregnancy. 

Nitpicking point, but it is more potential for life, not life itself. A living, breathing, walking, talking female should have more rights than an invisible zygote, blastocyst and even fetus. 

Someone suggested it should be done by county referendum. Okay, so Orange County, California can opt to sede from Los Angeles County? Or secede from the U.S. of A. How would that work? 

No wonder people vote for the likes of M.T. Greene and djt ~ no critical thinking skills. Secession is a terrible idea; can not divorce states without destroying the U. S. of A. 

Secession Comments

The secession article pointed out that divorce involves things like: Who Will Get The Children. So, who would get the National Debt, author queried. The author states %ages of voters who agree with a national divorce. Heavy on GOP/mawas and trump himself. Less than 50% of Biden voters. Notice he wrote, Biden, not Democrats. And what happened to Greens? Or Libertarians? Us Independents do not count in these here United States of America?

Percentages and polls do not interest me. No one asks me my opinion. Unless at the end of the poll, they are asking for campaign donations, thus biased questions, anyway. Judging by comments on the article, those percentages are likely accurate.

MAWAs out in force. They hate Blues or Democrats. One said "then the Blue States would become Police States." How effective that GOP propaganda has been. All my adult life GOP has been yelling that Democrats are coming for your guns. Has that happened? There was a ten year period when military style weapons were banned. Mass shootings were down in those years.

I once believed that if they took away citizens rights to own guns, then only police would have them. Internet, however, allowed me to read sensible gun laws. A nationwide database to be used by gun sellers to deny felons purchase of weapons, to deny domestic violence offenders guns, to deny mentally unstable people from owning guns, is sensible.

The part of the 2nd Amendment about Well Regulated Militia is ignored by NRA lovers. What is regulated, other than laws or rules or oversight? I think that amendment was to ensure people could fight for their state in their military or National Guard. 

Where does that state that law enforcement are militia?

MT Greene Divorce Blue States

 M.T. Greene wants to divorce red states from blue states. Read an article saying "Secession  is here:" people have been withdrawing from the Union for years. An example is not serving on jury duty. I do not see that as "withdrawing." Some people simply do not want to play judge over other people's lives ~ that is, find a stranger guilty of a crime, based on the best lawyer's presentation.

I raised hand to be excused from a trial once. A homeless man was charged with failing to register as a sex offender. The offense was statutory rape of his girlfriend 30 years back in high school. A 16 or 17 year old having a 18 or 19 year old boyfriend is not at all unusual. If the girl consents to have sex, that is not rape. And how does an unhoused person register an address? 555 Ocean Blvd, where he sleeps, overnight? Lincoln Park where he hangs out during the day?

He had no other "sex offenses" since being charged with having sex with his underage girlfriend. I would not be a fair juror (not guilty.) I also would not sit on trial to give criminal death penalty. I am against that due to innocent people being put to death. Until our justice system is perfect, I do not approve.

I would rather assisted suicide be legal. With cause ~ terminally ill elderly, perhaps, who wants to choose a time and place to end suffering and expense of care.

Was I withdrawing? No, I was excited to be chosen to serve on another jury. After lunch break, when we returned, we were dismissed due to defendant accepting a plea deal. 

Some companies do not pay time off for jury duty. The miniscule stipend does not make up for losing a days pay to do jury duty. A person might have medical condition, such as diabetes and could not chance a long trial. Many reasons to refuse jury duty having zero to do with withdrawing from the Nation.

Empty Greene

 I do not approve of name calling, but Marjorie Taylor Greene is empty headed, so Empty Greene seems to fit. 

Not completely empty; her mind is filled with hateful things. And what she can do to bring attention to herself, such as parading around the halls carrying a white balloon to mock President Biden. Or wearing white fur coat indoors. Her head it full of conspiracy theories and screwball ideas.

She now wants to divorce Red States from Blue States, due to liberals spoon feeding wokeness on citizens. Despise the use of the word woke to mean anything other than waking up in the morning. I woke up with a hangover. 

Citizens partition their reps to do things they want to be done. So that CINOs wanted to outlaw abortions, GOP got them outlawed. LGBT want things, such as right to marry, they petition the lawmakers to get it done. 

MT Greene and the rest need to wake up to the tangled web they created for women who need emergency treatment for miscarriage, for one. Doctors refusing a DNC could cost a woman her life.  They do need to wake up! Of be woke. 

Grates on my nerves to hear elected reps using that word: woke. Talk like an adult, not a whatever generation changed the meaning. So cringe.

What is wrong with divorcing states? A) there are blue or green or Libertarians living in "red states." What if they do not want to leave the state where they were born and lived their entire lives. Or, can not afford to do?

B) Take a look at 1975 Electoral Map ~ California was red; Texas was blue. So what happens, Ms. Greene, when red states become blue or blue becomes red? Do you sunset it ~ vote on remarriage or new divorce every 4 years?

Scary so many citizens are right there with her wanting another civil war. Nutty people. It is not like south against north anymore. Do we build a wall around Texas after divorce to keep them from entering the U.S. of A. without a passport? Do we allow them to use interstate highways paid for by the U.S. of A. funds?
