So now they will be arresting parents as they drop their kids off at school. Probably in front of the kids and the entire student body. Oh, that'll go well, won't it? And THEN what??

When the Anti-Defamation League says that a Nazi salute by a fucking Nazi is "an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge," you start to realize that there's absolutely NO ONE who can help you and you'll need to do it yourself.

Yeah, I know it's a Hanukkah song. But the lyrics are timeless and don't really have a season. And we have to preserve the light no matter what -- ESPECIALLY now. The lyrics are in the video.
In loving memory of Peter Yarrow. May his memory be a blessing.

He is such a goddamn piece of narcissistic shit. But he won't disappoint us -- the speech he will give that day will likely mention every grievance he has and then some, and I'm sure one of them will be about the flags. It's going to make his 2017 "American carnage" crap look tame by comparison.

Felon, sexual abuser, conman, traitor Trump should be in prison for what he did, not being inaugurated.
So, the fact that the slippery, tomato-sauce-stained son-of-bitch is whining about flags being flown in memorial of a true public servant like Jimmy Carter is making my blood boil.

They say this -- but of course, what it really means is they will chip away at actual science through fear, and eventually they will outlaw all vaccines. They want us stupid, sick and eventually dead. That is the goal.
Maybe Think Of It This Way: The anti-vaxxers are fond of saying that they don’t want to forbid or do away with vaccines like polio and smallpox; that they’ll still be available. That misleads from the actual point.

CNN is hopelessly broken.
1. This "expansion" would require military invasions of several allies in violation of international law.
2. It would violate several treaties.
3. The Louisiana Purchase was the sale of land by a colonial power (France). These are sovereign nations.

One of the very best Christmas songs, IMHO. My son learned to play it on piano and sang it for a recital years ago. Very sadly, the words are still timely.
I wish everyone a "hopeful Christmas and a brave New Year." I think we are going to have to be very brave.
