"Who's Herman Cain?"

He lost me with those few words. There are Republicans I would love to discuss politics with, because there are still, hidden in the mist, rational Republican thinkers who I might disagree with, but when they have points they actually know what they are talking about and we… Read full post »

I removed the original post that was here while I contacted organizations and people across the country trying to figure out what to do about the particular Internet Harassment that has been happening to me and my friends. One organization strongly suggested that I take down this blog which… Read full post »

I've been alarmed by a trend that all the major Internet social sites have begun and are now following at an alarming rate of accuracy.

They only give people what the people's words show them they're interested in.

That means if you're a person who's not interested in much, there's no… Read full post »

This is about a liar.

He not only deserves no name, he deserves no mention. If you have followed a link he or one of his friends gave you. you will not find him. You've been deceived.

People spend too much time believing too much written on the Internet.

Go find something… Read full post »

I have seen a lot of polls asking Republicans and Independents what they think of President Obama, Congress, and the issues that are important today. They assume if a conservative is not a Republican, a conservative would only become an Independent.

I have not seen them ask a question that may… Read full post »

Let's just put it this way:

Yo. Republicans. Shut up. Sit down. You keep starting fires we don't need. Mean it. You over there. Cantor. Stop showing off. You ain't that pretty. Boehner. No brainer. Shut up. McConnell. Retire. The rest of you. You lame brains. Stuff it.

Jeb Bush. George… Read full post »

How many of you watch the party candidate debates, carried by one station?  1 - 2 - 3- uh, yeah, thought so.

How many of you watch the football season opener? Can't count the hands but thank you.

President Obama promised to speak on jobs and the economy THIS NEXT WEEK. … Read full post »

"Aw they were wrong! It wasn't big enough!"

Would you cut it out already?

The government, even the media, did what they should have done. Odds and history have shown us what a hurricane along this trajectory can do, even "just" a category one. You can't fine tune a prediction for… Read full post »

The field is thinned out, barely, and the media has declared the top 3 for the Republican presidential nominee.  (Ah, people forget the media is often all about entertainment.) The polls are declaring who's popular and who's not among those who are declared Republicans, Democrats, and… Read full post »

All the complaints about President Obama allowing Congress to take a break and go home are - about what? What would we have missed if they didn't go home? A chance to see what happens when constituents try to get some face time with their reps...

I know, now, that e-mail… Read full post »

I haven't been happy with calling the extreme right conservative for some time. There have been conservative political voices in the past that deserved that name - not only in the Republican Party, but in the Democratic Party. A lot of people may not realize that once upon a time when… Read full post »

Michelle Bachmann lost big time at the Ames Iowa Straw Poll. Man oh man, did she take a licking.

After bribing people with a/c, food, a petting zoo, Randy Travis, and giving out 6000 tickets she bought herself, Michelle only received 4823 votes. That's a negative 1177 return on her bribery inves… Read full post »

Mitt Romney was stunned last week that someone in his audience didn't understand that corporations are people, proving once again that somewhere along the way the Republican mindset - once stamped with the image of rugged individualism, around the time of Teddy Roosevelt - has lost its … Read full post »

I uphold the Constitution of the United States, and its democratic form of government.

Until it doesn't work. Then the real political vein within me starts pumping.

I don't really believe all men are created equal. I don't believe we can ever hope to treat all men equally. We have laws… Read full post »

I have never been so pissed in my life. I should have been long ago.

I have something in common with President Obama. I have had my huge share of Republican bullies. Those of you who believe Republican bullying just started with the many attempts to block, harrass, and malign President… Read full post »

Googled your name lately? Do it. Do it in several different ways. Put quotation marks around it. Use your Internet nicknames. Take a real good look at your presence on the web.

 There are thousands of links for me, and I'm lucky that I turned out the work that put most… Read full post »

 When using facebook, or any other social website, this is not what you want to read when you open up a facebook page: your name being libelled.

This is going to be a difficult holiday season for a great many people. Christmas has become a crisis. I want to share something that happened to me long ago, and how I have carried a tradition created out of want, forward. There once was a time when my father said we would not… Read full post »

Okay. Deep breath.

 I have learned, by too much effort, that if you let the fear of failure stop you from taking the chance to do what you know you should with your life, you never really live.

I'm a creator. I'm the kind of creator who goes all over the… Read full post »

 I am writing this with the memories and feelings of the child I once was.

When I was about eight years old, my Dad took me with him when he attended a church meeting I didn't understand. Until that day, all I had seen on the faces of the adults at… Read full post »

Yes, it was a shock when the Nobel Prize committee announced the Peace Prize this morning.

 It was a shock just how ugly people can behave about a huge compliment a man did not ask to have. That's the major embarrassment - not him.

Does President Barack Obama deserve the peace prize? H… Read full post »

I used to sing professionally, but I don't think I've ever really SUNG.

Not all out.

 All out means not being afraid of your own voice.

 I've been terrified of mine since kids bullied me when I was a little girl. They put their jealousy where their mouths were, and it… Read full post »

I am finally settled into my new Kentucky home, and started off Monday with sunshine (after more than a week of rain and floods) and a good three hours working on my new creative home, Squidoo.com.

 I have to thank Salon.com for introducing me to Squidoo. It was love at first… Read full post »

I packed up my life and moved to Kentucky just as the flooding in Atlanta started. We moved from one soaked place to another with an open trailer, and yet everything pretty much survived. My nephew is a careful man, and brilliant with tarps. He got us here safe and sound and I'll… Read full post »
