This reparations issue. Who started it and why?

I don't understand.

Maybe it has to be addressed. Maybe those should be paid, maybe not. It's a matter for honest debate.

But why now when even if the House passes reparations it's dead on arrival in the Senate? And especially under this atmosphere where the House is reluctant for an impeachment because "it will divide the country"?

Why not wait until we have the power to do something?

I can't resist the fundies at the abortion clinic here in Richmond

So, like every morning I was walking my two dogs and THIS time, I swear, I wasn't going to get into anything with those kooks, but one of them shoved a Jesus brochure at me.

So, I asked him: "and if I don't believe anything in this brochure what happens to me?"

He: "Then you won't have eternal life with him."

Goodheart: "Is there a hell? Do I go to hell?"

He: "Sadly yes."

Goodheart: "And what about these abortions... you call them unborn children, I call them fetusus. Do they have souls? Where do those souls go when they're aborted?"

He: "They are innocents who go to Heaven."

Goodheart: "What you're telling me is that by being born some of these souls won't believe in Jesus and will go to Hell. Isn't it better for them to be aborted?"

He: "No!"

Goodheart: "You don't make sense, but thanks for the chat."
