The Gun Debate

The Right Wing/NRA is taking the Gun Control controversy in a bad direction. We have accusations of "crisis actors" being used to stir up support for it. Just now I was watching S. E. Cupp Unfiltered and this Democrats being connected with people who commit mass shootings. She is also talking about how 45 was the only voice of reason in the sit down meeting he had with high school students yesterday. I am getting really sick here.

I want to know

If that asshole Alex Jones the Infowars nutcase can call the school shooting today in Broward County legitimate.
When you can start questioning the legitimacy of The Sandy Hook Elementary School then I want to see you try and discount any of this.

Come on Mister Jones.

Veteran of a Million Tax Form Wars

In honor of Tax season coming up I submit this
When you take a break from filling out your tax form you can read through this
It is a story that while a person’s life on the outside might look all rosy and sweet
The inside is rotten to the core

I just ask that the people from Blue Oyster Cult forgive me


VETERAN OF A MILLION
TAX FORM WARS

You see me now a veteran
of a million tax form wars
I’ve been living on the edge so long
Where tax forms fill my cubicle
Numbers plague my brain and
keep me from my sleep
I am far too old to see
All the scars are on the inside
I’m not sure that there’s anything left of me
Don’t let these forms go on

It’s time we had a break from them
It’s time we had some leave
I’ve been living in this mess so long
It gets bigger and bigger everyday
Oh, please don’t let these forms go on

You ask me why I am weary,
why I say these things to you
You say 45 has enacted Tax Reform for you and me
I do not want you to fall for that lunacy
The wars are still going on dear
And there’s no end that I know
The auditor will always
recalculate your form
This wretched insanity will forever…
…will forever be the norm
Don’t let these forms go on

It’s time we had a break from them
It’s time we had some leave
I’ve been living in this mess so long
It gets bigger and bigger everyday
Oh, please don’t let these forms go on

You see me now a veteran
of a million tax form wars
My energy’s spent at last
My support is null and void
I have used up all deductions
and I’m helpless and bereaved
The filing deadline has passed already
Did I hear you say that you do not agree?
Don’t let these forms go on

It’s time I had a break from them
Send me on medical leave
I fill out forms there as well
In my own private hell
Oh, please don’t let these forms go on
Don’t let these forms go on
Don’t let these forms go on

The words are at it again

True to form 45 is doing his job. Sending out tweets about the Rob Porter wife abuse scandal. Tweets of Porter being “falsely accused” and these are “mere allegations”. This is nothing more than damage control. In my opinion he is looking after his reputation. He does not want to have this kind of cloud hanging so close to him. It would taint his glamorous and glitzy image. The very idea that he can send this stuff out and in effect call these ex-wives liars.

All the more frustrating is that he can say these things and we have a Right Wing that bows down to this diatribe calling it the truth. Last week the word was treason. I have seen websites saying that “he is not a racist, but a realist”. In my opinion he is and opportunist that found a willing audience to talk to.

Power

The greater the power, the more dangerous the abuse

Edmund Burke

Voice over at the end of CBS Criminal Minds "The Return"

I think I could write a five page essay about stuff over the last year but those jerks in Washington do not deserve any of my effort.

Treason

First I want to give Jeff Flake a hand. A Senator from Arizona who got up and talked about 45 and his use of the word “treason”. 45 used that word at a speech the other night in Ohio like he was talking about many of the issues that have fallen within his narrow minded perspective. Throw it around here and there and I found it to be a bit morbid. Then Senator Flake gave his speech and it gets me thinking.
45 over the last year has been able to with the help of the GOP rework the Government system. I think if he could he would scrap the Constitution. He would replace it with something more to his liking. It does not matter what public opinion is. If, and when he leaves office ( I hope that would be today…please today ), he has his properties to go to. That is if he can make it past the Russia investigation.
As for this word treason and tossing it around the same as he used “Crooked Hillary” a million times. You better have rock solid evidence of any wrongdoing. Or you might be hearing that word at your impeachment hearings and subsequent court trial just before they send you to jail.
