Almost meatless!

My meat consumption is down 75%. I don’t brag about it and preach about it. When I got my heart attack in 20017, I had a personal revolution. I stopped smoking then I changed my diet. Next thing I want to do is more exercising. Getting back to this meat thing. I am doing less meat because meat clogs your arteries and because of the cruelty done to animals. So it’s for health reasons and moral reasons. I hope to be 100% vegetarian in a couple of months. Like many Americans I love Burgers and fries. Burgers Kings “Impossible burger” is a great meat substitute. I also love my Soy Beacon. Taste like the real thing. I want to live to see the first Jewish president.

Stand up against Anti-Sanders lies by Neo- McCarthyists.

Are Democrats going to remain silent while Bernie Sanders gets Red Baited? In case you have forgotten what McCarthyism is, here is refresher course.

McCarthyism
McCarthyism is the practice of making accusations of subversion or treason without proper regard for evidence. The term refers to U.S. senator Joseph McCarthy and has its origins in the period in the United States known as the Second Red Scare, lasting from the late 1940s through the 1950s. It was characterized by heightened political repression and a campaign spreading fear of communist influence on American institutions and of espionage by Soviet agents. After the mid-1950s, McCarthyism began to decline, mainly due to the gradual loss of public popularity and opposition from the U.S. Supreme Court led by Chief Justice Earl Warren. The Warren Court made a series of rulings that helped bring an end to McCarthyism.

They are Red Baiting Bernie Sanders! Are we really going there?

Red-baiting, also referred to as reductio ad Stalinum (/ˈstɑːlɪnəm/), is an informal logical fallacy that intends to discredit the validity of an opponent's logical argument by accusing, denouncing, attacking, or persecuting an individual or group as anarchist, communist, Marxist, socialist, Stalinist, or sympathetic towards these ideologies. In the United States, the term red-baiting dates from at least 1927. In 1928, blacklisting by the Daughters of the American Revolution was characterized as a "red-baiting relic". A term commonly used in the United States, red-baiting in the United States history is most often associated with McCarthyism, a term which itself originated in the two historic Red Scare periods of the 1920s (First Red Scare) and 1950s (Second Red Scare). In the 21st century, red-baiting does not have quite the same effect it previously did due to the fall of Communism, but some pundits have argued that notable events in current American politics indicate a resurgence of red-baiting consistent with the 1950s. The word red in the term red-baiting refers to the red flag as a symbol of communism, socialism (including democratic socialism), Marxism and left-wing politics in general (including anarchism, although its flag is black). The word baiting refers to persecution, torment or harassment as in dog-ba
iting.

A song with no music

I have no idea on type of music I could put to this? Maybe rag time?

50 years ago this song was dropped.

Which way you are you going Billy? Poppy Family. This was Canadian pop group. They started a new genre called: Soft rock. It was love song with an anti-war message. That sold a lot of records back then. I didn’t like it much. If you so incline, read all about it.
