Fight Like Hell

 "All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by bold and radial left Democrats, which is what they are doing, and stolen by the fake news media. That is what they have done and what they are doing. We will never give up. We will never concede. It doesn't happen. 

You don't concede when the is theft involved. Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore, and that is what this is all about. and to use a favorite term that all of you people really came up with, we will stop the steal...

We will not let them silence your voices. We're not going to let that happen...Republicans are constantly fighting like a boxer with his hands tied behind his back. It's like a boxer. And we ant to be so nice, so respectful of everybody, including bad people. 

And we're going to have to fight much harder...Because you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and be strong..We fight and we fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore."

How can someone box with no arms and gloved hands, because they are tied around their back? Now I get his NFT pixel featuring his life and career as a boxer.

THIS IS MY COUNTRY TOO, arsehole. I think I get it now. All this Civil War being threatened, Trump's claims to be better than Abraham Lincoln, he wants to take us back to 1860s when America was great. Lead his weaponized thugs to a Southern states win over the North.

 Evidentially he has the support of "The Grand Old Party has become the Rule-or-Ruin Party."

Blast from the Past

 Cleaning up documents on laptop, found this blast from the past:

"When you test, you have cases. Why you test,  you find something is wrong with people. If we don't do any testing, we would have very few cases." ~ DJT

Such logic and he wonders why he did not get re-elected. Also:

"I never understood wind. You know, I know windmills very much. I studied it better than anybody." ~ DJT  Yes, he learned the noise caused cancer. At that time I did research. Windmills near Palm Desert area  did not higher rates of cancer than any other area. 

Did not matter what subject was "no one does it better than himself". He was best at selling propaganda and leading his White Nationalists thugs to fight like hell to stop the steal. His cohorts in Congress are now on committees. DJT might still go down in history as the man responsible for turning the U.S. of A. into a fascist dictatorship. 

Sad. We were a mostly great nation until he came along.

MAWA Marches

 Too bad I am not going to comment on Yahoo articles anymore. I was posting notes from Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth, and the Trials of American Democracy, Jamie Raskin's book. He wrote about 11/14/2020 and 12/20/2020 MAWA marches that turned violent. 

People comment about BLM burning down cities, but no mention of Proud Boys setting a black congregations church on fireI do not remember those two events. I do not watch TV news, just check headlines, so may have missed it. I did not read much about BLM protests either. Maybe I was just playing Facebook games? 

Oh, wait, 2020 was when I was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma. I was hospitalized twice that year. Spent an entire month in hospital and nursing home for rehab. Came home to massive bedbug infestation. COVID Apt. complex no longer a polling place. TY for mail-in ballots. I guess I was not paying much attention to news.

I was vaguely aware of Proud Boys starting violence at peaceful BLM protests. And of "antifa" showing up to fight with MAWAs at their protests or rallies. And quite award of trumps photo op in front of a church holding Bible upside down. Notice how quick he was to call out National Guard on peaceful protesters, but not at all when it was his violent mob attacking Congress. 

11/14/2020

https://www.npr.org/2020/11/14/934957728/trump-supporters-descend-on-d-c-for-events-contesting-election-results

13-year-old killed

 A 13-year-old boy was shot and killed, when a man heard noises, went outside and shot the boy dead.

Comments on article are typical, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. They do not use that same logic with Ashli Babbit; they see her as an innocent women murdered by Capitol guard; a martyr. 

And those pointing out: Crimes eligible for death penalty in America - curfew violations, no tail lights, counterfeit money, shoplifting and jaywalking, being out at 4AM. (sitting on picnic table with BB gun, shopping in Walmart holding BB gun being purchased after selecting dog food, sleeping in a park)

So basically any kid you see roaming around @0400 is fair game...

Because he's a thug and taking advantage of people. This was a present to the rest of civilized society

the shooting could have been in self-defense

13 years old and out on the streets at 4am. Sorry ma'am your son was involved in a robbery and unfortunately he found out the hard way that he made a poor decision.

So making a poor decision means death penalty? Where in the article is their evidence that the boy had a gun? The shooter's identity has been kept secret, fearing attacks on the man. Article says he is a black. Comments say he is a "government worker." Maybe an off-duty cop? 

The peeps think the kid got what he deserve, do not get it. Vigilante killings is not just; arrest, evidence presented in court trial, or plead guilty, sentence is how law in the U.S. of A. work.  Men with guns wanting to be heroes for killing young teens and other unarmed suspects. 

George Santos COVID lie

Reported that George Santos said: "Unfortunately on the 9th of March I became symptomatic with what we all know now very well, COVID-19 a.k.a coronavirus, commonly known as the Chinese flu. On the 11th I ended up in the hospital. It was really bad, fever, body aches."

"So, I'm free, coronavirus free, so they're calling me a survivor, I don't know if I really survived anything. It's just flu."

He also claimed he had hallucinations. He is trying to sound like his hero DJT, except I think he called it "the China flu."

Comment by Dave: This man is a simply a symptom of a greater problem. If you want understand the problem, read the rest of the comments here with a focus on the replies.

So I did, The majority of the comments basically poking fun at Santos. I liked: next he will be claiming he kilt a bear when he was only three. Some likened him to Biden and Democrats. george534 wrote a long, no white space, comment that sounded like an alternate fact conspiracy theory to me. Then commented on his own comment:

It's why Trump held his covid meetings in high-security meeting rooms, the so-called "Sensitive Compartmentalized Information Facility" usually reserved for intelligence and military operations. This is the big secret the US is hiding about covid.

Okay if it is a big secret how come george534 knows so much about it? Was he in the "high-security meeting rooms?" Maybe George is George Santos and joined trump in the "Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility?"

Was that a room located at Mar-a-Lago, or other golf club facility? I do not recall trump doing much other travel, other than to hold rallies. Maybe the "big secret" was recorded on one of the documents he kept? 

Can always tell when a poster is a gaga MAWA. The article is political, it is not news, left leaning propaganda, and so on. Not a word about George Santos latest lie. 

The best comment was the one that said he should be removed from office. I agree, I do not want a man that is just blathering GOP lines voting on bills that will affect all U.S. citizens. We already have enough Liar -in-Chief loyalists in Congress keeping his lies alive. We do not need more. 

Cowboy is racist?

The comment explained why cowboy was racist. Back in the good old days, white people called black men boys. The cowhands who  herded cattle were black. Notice Clint Eastwood was called a cowhand, not a cowboy. LOL I now know that a cowhand is a cowboy or cowgirl.

Another poster said Cowboys originated in Mexico and brought the term here. That makes sense as I now know the term cowboy came from vaquero, a Spanish word for a person who managed cattle while on horseback. Irrelevant to the article. The Congressman referring to "wiping out the American cowboy," was not claiming ownership of the term.

Yet another poster said they saw a group of men on horseback herding cattle across the highway, only none of them spoke English. I wondered how he could hear all those men galloping by with the herd hooves beats speaking. Maybe they were implying there are no American cowpokes anymore? Or a slur against immigrants or illegals? 

Since I am ending my addiction to Yahoo comments, I am going to post some of my copy/paste notes on this blog. After all that research seems a waste to just delete them. 

Comfort Zone

 I realized that commenting on Yahoo articles was an old comfort zone. I spend my twenties arguing with a bigoted, racist, my way or the highway man. Actually he would not let me take the highway. I told him I wanted a divorce soon after he arrived home from jail. 

Was it comfortable? Hell no. I do not know why it is called "comfort zone." It is what one is used to; if one is used to being abused during childhood, they unknowingly seek a partner that repeats that. Not that I was abused as a child. Nor was there arguments about racism. My parents argued a lot. Or at least my father was always yelling at my mother.

Ah, so maybe that was it? Fathers yelling at mothers = normal. I do not remember what they argued about or why he yelled so much. I do recall him saying he did not think women should be allowed to vote. Or maybe married women should vote the same way as their husbands.

Mom was Republican, Dad was Democrat. He felt her vote cancelled out his own. Or man should be head of household? 

Realizing that I was sort of reliving my young married life, is what made me realize I had to break the habit. 

Unable to sleep, I did scan Yahoo news headlines, after I played Wordie. I did not open the GOP Congress ones. I read comments on a few articles. No "political flags" in a school. Do teens really carry BLM, LGBT flags to school? I did not read most of the article about the student protest. One comment asked if a picture of MLK, Jr is considered political. 

I was tempted to copy a post about a politician who said the deep state is trying to do away with the American cowboy, and turn Monatanta into a state park. The comment was a long ramble. "My great grandparents were born here, I am an AMERICAN!" 46-year-old that implies that I am not a real U.S. of A. citizens because my father was not born here? 

Most of the comments were poking fun at the cowboy hat, that his father was a plumber and he a geologist; never owned a ranch with cattle;  the pickup truck replaced horses; that if the deep state was run by Democrats why did it elect Trump & himself. One person said the term cowboys was racist in origin. 

White nationalist

 White nationalist groups espouse white supremacist or white separatist ideologies, often focusing on the alleged inferiority of nonwhites.

An irate MAWA demanded of a stranger: Do you know what a White Nationalist is? Have you ever met one? (Yahoo article comment section)

I jumped in: Yes, I do and yes I have. After J6 how could anyone not know what White Nationalist groups are? Even earlier was the Unite The Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.  Gee, most every student and adult knows about the KKK and lynchings.

2003 someone wrote in a comment that she did not know the KKK still existed. I did. The local Klan wanted to hold a parade through Bangor, PA where I lived before hosting a picnic. The mayor refused to give them a permit to carry guns under their robes, so they cancelled the parade.

Around that same time a white pointed hood robed Klan Person stood on the sidewalk down the block from my apartment. Standing next to him was a child (or midget, who knows) dressed identically, handing out literature. One person was arrested; she spit on the man. Local news reported that people would take the literature drive around the block, throw it out, then come back for more. I was so enraged I did not walk down there, even though I needed something from the store they were standing by.

My ex-husband put me on a Klan mailing list. I read the booklets and came to understand how they use the Old Testament Bible to justify their superiority. Maybe they are unaware that it is the Hebrew Bible? 

My ex was denied membership in the Klan because our children (teens) refused to sign up with him. He and an ex brother-in-law were big time racists and bigots.

Sister's hubby admired Adolf Hitler. I learned so many derogatory names ~ ethnic slurs. More from him then from my ex. Sis' new guy, common law married, is also a racist & bigot. Since she adores Trump, I think she is likely into White Supremacy herself. I know she is bigoted towards Indians (as in Hindus.)

I was like one and done when I still dated. N-word? Bye, bye. Made that mistake once, never again. The Rahway prison guard a co-worker fixed me up for a double date; her husband's co-worker. I do not remember the husband's exact words, something about the # of smokers of Kool cigarettes could not be wrong. He talked about using violence against blacks as well.

When my date took me home, he said "I am not like him." I did not go out with him again, because he wanted to marry and have children. I found it embarrassing to tell I had my tubes tied years ago. I also did not want anymore children.

Did the he irate MAWA consider what ethnic the poster might be? Could be any color, nationalities and could be they had faced discrimination due to their ethnicity. 

6 New Mexico shootings

 Andrew Hay Reuters 

https://www.yahoo.com/news/suspect-arrested-shootings-mexico-officials-233508119.html

Police arrested suspects in shootings of 6 Democrat officials homes and/or office. 

"The attacks follow a rise in threats and intimidation against U.S. politicians, government officials and sometimes their families. Members of Congress from both major parties have experienced a rise in harassment since the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol."

Comments: 

John: The fact that the suspects identity has not been released leads me to believe it doesn’t fit the agenda.

Joe Avg. : this is simple communist propaganda..lol

s. Massive illegal

crossings....

I bet we'll sooner then later

find all those

weapons

Obama

allowed into the country

under his watch

that were sent to

Mexico

and

brought

back in.

Puckeater: Dem shoots at their own place then call and say we are being shot at...

aka memo: New Mexico has always had an element of armed right wing militia gong back to the Minute Men back in the '60s. We are also in the top ten for gun ownership per capita and top five for gun deaths among states. Albuquerque Metro comprises about half the population of the State's 2 million. Guns are the weapons of choice by citizens in resolving personal problems since before Billy the Kid. The majority of gun deaths come from suicide or domestic violence. That there is outliers, Lone Wolves, who would resort to gun violence for political purposes is rare but not surprising given the current political atmosphere in the US.

Jim: Where are all the puzzle solvers today?

El Libertarian de PR" Remember when the left cheered when there was a shooting at a baseball game in DC? Pepperidge farms remembers.

The rest of the comments were typical mawa/others back and forth. I am on the next article, so not reading anymore of the comments.

Addition

 My commenting on Yahoo news articles had to end. I did okay for a while, staying logged out of Yahoo, just copying and pasting comments here, to reply.Yesterday I signed out of my account, coped and pasted a few comments here. Tried to read a paperback book while using leg massager, but print too small. I wonder if I should bother finishing it. I remember liking The Great Gatsby all those years ago, but so far wondering why. Someone gave me the copy. I have 4 books on Kindle that I will start reading later today.

I did watch two Prime movie videos yesterday. 

I had hope that at least one person would read one of my comments and say, "ya know, she is right, I never thought about it that way." My old expression: here comes that tsunami wave we all be running. Ha, I guess that should now be: here comes a mob looking to kill and hang, all Congress and staff be running and hiding. But as soon as mob threat is gone, we will immediately start spinning "peaceful protest," "antifa," "like tourists, walked in and walked out," nonsense. 

Every political article will have the same MAWA posting the same stuff: TDS, rent free in your head, lying liberal MSM, what about BLM, Antifa, Hillary, Obama, Joe, some other senator whose name escapes me who fudged his Vietnam war service. (One vet read me the riot act when I said something that that senator's lie was nothing compared to George Santos. I should have copied it. Said I was a Jane Fonda, X%^&*  Too late I thought I should have replied: Nah, just a grumpy old lady.) 

They have large cut/paste comments telling how great things were under Trump. I have my own cut/paste info I gathered, for things. Like when they talk about Massive election fraud, I counter with names of convicted minor election fraud. I am a bit biased; I lead with the guy who voted as his missing wife (I wonder why  she was missing,) because he wanted Trump to win. Followed by a Democrat, then a string of GOP voters, some elected officials. I end with Tina Peters and Richard Patton for balance.

The mawas "get over it," "no Russian Collusion" "witch hunt" " kangaroo court" "6 years and no convictions" (actually, no J6 was not six years ago) Nancy, AOC, Hunter's laptop, Biden crime family (I guess they made that up due to people saying  "trump crime family") the border, the border, the border and fentanyl, fentanyl, fentanyl,  gas prices, inflation, the jab (that one especially irritates me, but I guess it is like me using GOP rather than Republicans, because it is faster to type) Brandon

Both sides with infantile, often sexually vulgar, name calling, "your mother's basement," kool aid, sheep, typos or indicators of low intelligence. A number will talk about "this forum." It is article comments, not a forum. Some (MAWAS usually) will demand proof of an opinion. Others demand links to prove the claims. Well Yahoo does not allow posting of links (though I have seen some) but I just fact check claims (and 97% of the MAWAS claims turn out to be false.)

It is an education I tell you. I have a few books on my 'to read' list suggested by peeps in comments. I did not know about that senator whose name escapes me or Biden's "plagiarism." I did not even know who Senator Jamie Raskin was and other senators mentioned in comments. Nor the senator whose name also escapes me that brought her dog to Congress. 

Yahoo Comments

 After going to my Yahoo e-mail to open links to pay Electric and Cable bills, deleting most of the other unread mail, I signed out. I have lost interest in my last Facebook game. Needing to sit for a while when I first wake up, I started reading articles Yahoo shares. I used to only check out Google News. I used to spend a lot of time on forums, and had several websites and blogs that did not earn me a penny, which is likely how I started playing FB games. 

One day I just had to log in to Yahoo to reply to an ugly comment. Then it became my new addiction. I miss going for walks, smoking, doing community jigsaw puzzles, being able to afford newspapers, doing their crossword puzzles (online crossword puzzles too easy due to hints) and have gotten rather lazy when it comes to doing housework. I used to cook and bake a lot more, also. Painful trigger fingers, makes me shy away from doing stuff requiring a lot of chopping or stirring. Plus hard to cook for one when used to cooking for 4 or 5 or 40.

My new routine was to go to Yahoo news after a short trip to Farmtown, Google News and doing Wordie puzzle. It would suddenly be 2 o'clock and I was still sitting glued to computer. Yikes, Mar, you did not shower, lunch overdue, yesterday's dishes still in sink, if you don't put a move on that body I will be forced to give you a ticket. I should really turn on some music and hit the "dance floor."  What a colossal waste of time. 

My mantle cell lymphoma could come back at any time. A race between that and perhaps a fatal heart attack. What am I thinking? I have to clean out my junk, not sit at computer all day long. Somedays I would get up to do the dishes, shower, then jump right back to an article I was reading comments on.

What is the point? No one is going to convince a gaga MAWA that Trump is the worst president of all time. The MAGA' s are never going to convince anyone that Q/T social propaganda and alternate facts are truth. War on Drugs started long before Joe Biden became president. Under Trump it was heroin being smuggled across the border. Under Bidn it is fentanyl. Blaming an administration for addiction problems is wrong. Prohibition against alcohol did not stop drinking.

If it is not one drug it will be another. Homegrown meth, stolen prescription meds, cough syrup with codeine, cocaine, whatever is trendy at any given time period. Reefer or pot has been around a good long time. Maybe even smoked in native's "peace pipes?" 

My commenting addiction? 

Biased Proud Boy Jury?

 More comments on Proud Boys trial jury selection.

Lee to Rich:

Pushing back against militant criminals isn't hate

Um, same Rich?

It probably is biased considering the amount of censorship and propaganda that's out there

Kyle:

Kind of like Trump claiming the election was being rigged against him till he won, then claiming the next wouod be rigged against him a year before any votes were cast.

AOC#1FAn

No republican could get a fair trial in DC

Sibelius2

Then maybe they should have chosen a different place to commit crimes.

Jim

If the jury is going to consist of decent Americans who love their country, then we need a change of venue to the Free State of Dumbazzistan.

Shawn

If only they could convince the American public that they are victims. Why not ask those people that lost family members on January 6th to be jurors.

ed

The whole trail for Jan 6Th is biased. January 6th was nothing more than a protest that went "trustpassing".

Why you mad? unless you had a whole jury of proud boys, yes, they will be biased. Because the majority of America knows they were in the wrong.... it's like trying to find a jury not biased towards hitler.

GRUMPY

Political bias has taken over our courts and our Justice Dept. and Justice System. Any investigation that has to do with Trump will get a guilty verdict based on political bias and hatred for Trump.

#1 American

That is why no one from the National Socialist Democrat Party can be called a “ patriot”

Aaron

You can thank our biased media for that.

DAVID

anyone with ties to the republican party will never get a fair trial in washington dc.

Forrest Trump

This is what happens when the "nuts", get the keys to the "nut house"......

---

Easy to pick out the gagaMAWAs in commens.

I did not see anyone questioning why no Trump Q/T social GOP showed up for jury duty.

I 'rescued' myself from one jury because it was to decide on giving the guilty party death penalty. Until our justice system does not make mistakes and send An Innocent Man to jail, I oppose the death penalty.

That feed us their drivel?

Yahoo article about Proud Boys upcoming trail and jury selection Rich wrote: 

Reading the comments on here I've found that I have alot in common with people on here - just like most on here that have learned to hate the Proud boys by watching woke propaganda and censored news lie CNN, I've learned to hate Antifa as fascists watching Fox news. Its time we unite as only americans can and stop the rich elites that feed us their drivel

I OBJECT YOU HONOR!

I am anti fascist. I guess small groups of local teens that go out to protest fascist alt right groups, do not think to invite this old lady to join them.

Is Rich saying "antifa" is watching FOX News? Or that he is also an anti fascist who watches FOX so learned to hate, um, I dunno what Rich is saying.

I can not say I hate Proud Boys. I am appalled what they did on Jan. 6, 2021. I can say I probably would not make an impartial jury member.

The first time I watched CNN was on J6. I was oblivious when daughter texted me. I quickly turned on TV surfing news channels. CNN was best ~ showing violence as ti was unfolding. No biased censoring there. Online can watch hundreds more videos from J6 from various sources.

Drivel?

SoThis Is Christmas

 Texas Governor Abbott bussed asylum seekers to D.C. dumping them in frigid temperatures outside V.P. Kamela Harris' residence. 

Yahoo held everyone of my comments for approval. MAWAs out in full force making ugly, rude comments about President Biden and our V.P.

I can not mention "give us your tired, your hungry, your poor." One comment I questioned if there are no Christian churches in Texas.Then I tried Christian houses of worship. Yahoo tells me they hold comments for approval; do not take it personally.

Well damn it, I do take it personally. They can say any nasty ole thing they want about Biden, and others who comment, yet I am not allowed to say most anything. I felt like posting a cuss laden post, starting with Duck You Yahoo. It is too sad, that the ugliest comments were getting 131+ likes. 

The clairvoyant effectively indoctrinated masses of citizens. So much false info, misspelled words, slurs, personal attacks. 

I was enjoying doing a jigsaw puzzle when an overwhelming urge to smoke came upon me. I guess back before COVID when smoking was a daily habit, when I got stuck doing puzzles, I would go outside and have a smoke. Years earlier, when I lived in places where I could smoke indoors, I would light up, to help me think while writing. 

I read a how to quit smoking book and it claims that a cigarette does not actually help us to think better. Nor does it calm us down. I do not know. I think breathing in and out while smoking is as relaxing as meditative breathing. 

"We are a Christian nation," barf. Maybe no MAWAs are Christians, but GOP sure favors them over secular citizens. 

Serving Two Masters

 Surprisingly I do not recall the day I simply stopped going to church. I studied some world religions. I never found one to satisfy me. Then I did what Jesus said, threw away my Bibles. "You can not serve two masters, love the one and hate the other." I liked the illusion of electing government officials.

I did not actually serve the one and hate the other.  It was freeing, no longer trying to come to terms with a Santa, pagan traditions Xmas and a birth of Jesus one. I chose the American Holiday. Even "serving" that did not thrill me. Materialism.

Children with poor parents did not get treated with equality by Santa. Their wealthy classmate got the Flexible Flyer and they got new mittens and knit cap. It teaches kids greed. It does not actually teach them to be good for goodness sake, anymore that the Bible gets adults to be good.

It teaches them they will get a momentary reward for being good, not a lesson that being kinds, is, well good.

I read long ago about Jesus maybe not being white. Makes sense to me unless the holy spirit was an ET with white skin. St. Nicholas was not white either. Some posted on the article that as children they asked why Jesus looked white and not Arab. I was clueless as to world geography in relation to Jesus, Mary and Joseph. Red Sea=Moses parted it.

I wonder if that is like now, Mississippi river drying up, river bed dry, so peeps an walk to an island, that used to have to boat to. Maybe there was a severe drought, the sea dried up and parted and legend had it that Moses did it in one day. 

Early Q anon conspiracy theory? What was I saying here? 

My big turn off was this: why send me to hell for eternity because I smoked? No longer being Catholic, I could not confess other sins to be a priest, do penance, and be forgiven, still getting my shot at heaven.

What kind of cruel God is that? Eternity? Let the punishment fit the crime. Maybe Hitler deserves a long time in hell, DJT, also, but Bill Clinton maybe not so much? I think we have our own hell on earth. No need for an eternity burning up in hellfire. Jesus' skin color irrelevant. If he actually existed at all.

Trying not to reply

 Trying not to reply to Yahoo comments. Was doing better, then Facebook took Farm Town down again, and nothing to do, all day to do it. I suppose I could do some housework or continuing cleaning out my FB history. OY, I cleaned out my Blogger blogs, only to come back again. And again. 

So, anyway, I went away from the black/white Jesus article. Showered, cooked squash, ate squash while looking for the comment I wanted to share. Took me back in time.

My Story

I wondered why I was attracted to long shaggy dark haired hippie guys with mustaches and beards.  They did not look like my father, older brothers, or even uncles. Aha moment.

I used to stare at the mural painted on ceiling, wall over the altar every Sunday. Every holy day of Obligation, Every 7 day Novena. Well, not that would have been walking around the church stopping at stained glass windows to pray the rosary. Every Catholic funeral.

I loved Jesus! I wanted to marry him, ie: become a nun when I grew up. 

That idea went out the window when I started reading the Bible, finding descriptions from what I was taught and what the catechism the nuns tested us on, & priests taught.

When a sister and later brother asked me to be Godmother for their new baby girl and baby boy, I wanted to say no. I was still going to church, but I no longer believed. I felt a hypocrite, because I was too timid to say no. 

I did, however, know that should the sis die, I would be sure the daughter was raised Catholic. The brother's wife did not want me, but he insisted. Those babies long grown up and I no longer give them birthday/Christmas $$$ gifts as my godparents had given me.

How Jesus Became A White Man

 https://www.yahoo.com/news/long-history-jesus-came-resemble-121923976.html

The Long History of How Jesus Came To Resemble a White European

My post title a bit different that the article. Their title and article a bit too long. I did not finish reading. No images. I would follow links that did not take me to images, just the artists' names, so lost interest.

Comments on article, predictable. Why do people bother? Non-Christians will not be convinced Jesus existed; Christians long "you will go to hell" comments. Middle Eastern people were dark skinned: not they were not, they were WHITE. Mary was born in Palestine. No the was not.

I had to keep stopping to fact check. I learned Mary was born in Herodian Kingdom of Judea. Um, where was that? Oh, could be Israel, Jordan, Jerusalem, Palestine. Turkey? I wonder. Countries along the Red Sea? 

Mary was 13. Was not. Where does it say that. The Bible. (No, her age is not mentioned in the Bible.) Raped. Pediophile. Life expectancy was 49; common for girls to marry at 12. 

One bright fella wished we could find the body of Jesus, run DNA test to see who his real father was. That guy believed the Biblical account, yet did not know that Jesus' grave was empty, his body rose up into heaven? 

Best comment by m

Why are we talking about this. Everyone knows he doesn’t exist. You travel to all the kids houses in one night. Oh shoot that’s the other guy this one had endless bread and turned water into wine. I get made up figures confused. Which one does the hidden eggs?

Super Moron

 Too bad I do not do Twitter. Someone posted in comments on article about the new digital trading cards said twitter is full of memes calling #45 Supermoron. 

He touts his cards as depicting his life and career. He was an astronaut when? In his boyhood fantasies perhaps? He does golf. I guess the golf card is showing a much younger, slimmer version of his self. Superhero? Super Fool. Super Liar. Super Crazy. 

He has long wanted his head on Mt. Rushmore. Lady Liberty cried the day he was elected. Why hold the torch? He does not agree with sentiment "give me your tired, your hungry, your poor." The opposite, he wants to lock people out, locking us inside the man made boundaries long dead peeps named The United States of America.

Super megalomaniac. Better than Washington and Lincoln. Maybe he was a cowboy in a movie? Do not consider him a Hollywood star, minor guest roles. HIs TV show was filmed in NYC. He sure treated his presidency as a joke; CEO of the U.S. of A. 

Violated ethic laws by using office for personal gain of self, family and close associates. Jared got a 2 billion investment in his new company, courtesy of Saudi Arabia. Trump Org got lucrative deal in Saudi Arabia. So much for America First. Supermoron. Except in his ability to con people.

Super Moron

Some one posted a meme showing 45 ticking off with fingers:

“I said to the doctor, it was Dr. Ronny Jackson. I said, ‘Is there some kind of a test, an acuity test?’ “And he said, ‘There actually is,’ and he named it, whatever it might be.”

“‘OK, that’s very good. If you get it in order you get extra points,’

“They said nobody gets it in order, It’s actually not that easy, but for me, it was easy. And that’s not an easy question.

The cognitive test is used to determine dementia. He can recall 5 words, but not the name of the test? He has the habit of repeating himself. I tried to listen to the entire FOX video, but gave up. 

He said the doc said they would have to release the results and he was fine with that. He had a perfect score. He even could identify an elephant.

One of the words he kept repeating was "sharp." Now I get why Tom announced him "sharp." LOL Learn something new everyday.

Article comment: 

Tom: You may not agree with him and he may be a complete jerk but he was actually pretty sharp. Biden can only read a teleprompter.

Asked simple question he rambles on about his very smart uncle, he told him nuclear was powerful, "who would have thought that" ~ he was 35 when this uncle taught him that? Most people know about Hiroshima, long before adulthood.

After his 90 second long run on sentence, the host had to ask him a 2nd time, because he did not answer the question.

---

“My uncle used to tell me about nuclear before nuclear was nuclear" and "He would tell me, ‘There are things that are happening that could be potentially so bad for the world in terms of weaponry."

---

Maybe he should have studied some U.S. history, learned about MAD and the Cold War before running for the highest office in the land.

I wonder how sharp those who voted for him were?

Asked what he would say to reassure citizens who are concerned about COVID, he said "I would say you are a very bad reporter."

Gee that was very reassuring. A sharper person might say something like, "It will disappear, like a miracle, gone by April." or "Just drink some bleach."
