Sometimes you just have to take people at their word and believe they're showing you who they are. On June 27, 2020, a man wore this shirt at an emotional gathering in Union County, Arkansas, where some citizens were organizing to "save a Confederate Statue and preserve their heritage." This photo is from a screenshot... Continue Reading →
Embarrassing to see grown men groveling
My response: Respectfully disagree. The US flag is a symbol and can take care of itself without a law that conflicts with the freedoms it stands for. Put your time and effort somewhere else. I could have continued that it was beneath Representative Womack to be President Trump's water carrier. It's also embarrassing to see... Continue Reading →
Conspiracy Theories By the Dozen
I’ve been on the planet a few years now and have seen lots of conspiracy theories come and go. Very few have proven true. I did some searching and found six that turned out to have some validity according to MentalFloss.com and author Austin Thompson. Some talk radio hosts would have us believe everything is...

If I say something stupid…
These are the three elements of President Trump's rationalization following comments that the injecting bleach and UV light into the human body might be a way of eliminating COVID-19.

I choose to continue seeking, hopefully finding... Continue Reading →
What will his legacy be?
It's so very sad to watch a man trying to appear independent while acting as a puppet. For full interview: ABC News Update: William Barr's legacy is taking shape. As of June, 2020, all fears about Barr are being realized. We tax payers are supplying his salary, but he's only working for one man.
Since we’re practicing our proof texting skills…
I always feel unsettled when Dr. Robert Jeffress, Pastor at First Baptist Church in Dallas, quotes scripture on social media. I wouldn't find it offensive to hear him read a passage from the pulpit if I didn't know anything about him. At least Dr. Jeffress encourages me to read my Bible. I always make it...

Cotton Candy
