just wondering...

 

You may have noticed we didn't really say anything about the assassination attempt ...

Well, there was a reason for that.

Honestly? We weren't convinced it was for real.

I mean look, DT is a reality personality, attention is everything!

I just kept thinking, if it was on the up and up he never would have stood up and shook his fist in the air (ever see the movie The Dead Zone?)

So, we just left it...

But I still wonder if this will end up being another grassy knoll.

Is this all coming down to Harris vs. Haley?

Biden bowed out to make room for Harris.

Will the GOP put Nikki Haley in place of Trump???

Hu-m-m-m-m-m-m...

Joe...

 

Joe Biden is a true hero.

Something that Donald Trump could only ever even try to Imagin.

Hès one of the best presidents of my lifetime and that's a long time!

We said in a previous post that "you don't know what you've got until you lose it",

we stand by that statement!

(We are having the same thoughts in our own lives too)

So, pass the torch Joe, just know you lit the flame...

just desserts...

 

We deserve what we get!

Are we really going to sacrifice our freedom and democracy because we are too busy being sinical

to stand behind Joe Biden?!

Is the grass really greener on the other side, that tempting that we would trample the very dirt beneath

 our feet to get to that other side?

I guess it's true when they say "you don't really know what you've got until you lose it".

Maple street...

 

Joe Biden said, it didn't matter what he does someone won't be happy.

The way the press and Dummocrats are ripping him to pieces it reminded me of an old Twighlight Zone I saw years ago and never forgot:

The repubs also seem to be standing back watching as we devore ourselves!

\

One late-summer afternoon, Maple Street is full of children playing and adults talking and doing yard work, when a shadow passes over, accompanied by a roar and a flash of light. Everyone notices, but they assume it is a passing meteor and resume their activities. The residents soon discover that their power went off, affecting stoves, lawnmowers, cars, phones, even portable radios, and they gather in the street to discuss the situation. Pete Van Horn volunteers to walk over to Floral Street, to see if it is affected. His neighbors, Steve Brand and Charlie Farnsworth, decide to go into town to investigate further, but Tommy, a neighborhood boy, urges them not to go. Tommy has read a story of an alien invasion causing similar issues, and says that the monsters do not want anyone to leave the street. Tommy adds that in the story, the aliens are living as a family that appears to be human but are actually scouts, and the power outage they cause is to isolate the neighborhood. The adults are incredulous, assuring him that the cause is natural.

Another resident, Les Goodman, tries unsuccessfully to start his car. However, after he walks away from the car, it starts by itself. This makes the neighbors suspect that Les may be an alien. As they all gather, one woman brings up Les' late nights spent standing in the garden looking at the sky, as if waiting or looking for something. Les, defending himself as a resident of Maple Street for five years, claims to suffer from insomnia and admonishes his neighbors that they should use caution and not panic. Steve tries to defuse the situation and prevent it from becoming a witch-hunt, but tensions remain high.

As darkness descends, Charlie begins keeping watch over Les Goodman's house. Steve suggests Charlie go home to bed. Another neighbor, Don, mentions that Steve has built his own radio set, which Charlie then claims no one has ever seen. As suspicion mounts, Steve's wife protests that it is a simple ham radio, but Steve sarcastically answers that he talks to aliens with it. Steve and the other neighbors continue to argue, using each person's idiosyncrasies as evidence that they are an alien. Steve warns that such behavior, looking for a scapegoat, is the surest way for the entire neighborhood to "eat each other up alive".

A shadowy figure walks toward them. Tommy exclaims that it is the monster. Claiming it may be necessary for protection, Don obtains a double-barrelled shotgun that Steve immediately confiscates. As the figure gets closer, Charlie panics, grabs the shotgun, and shoots the figure. When the crowd reaches the fallen figure, they realize it is Pete (who had gone to see if Floral Street had power earlier), and he is now dead. As Charlie struggles to defend his hasty action, the lights in his house come on by themselves, causing the residents to turn on him. Don suspiciously asks Charlie why his power is back on, while Les rebukes him for being so quick to kill and sow distrust, suggesting that perhaps Pete had found proof of Charlie's extraterrestrial origins, and that the former shot the latter to silence him. Even Steve does not advocate for Charlie, outraged by his senseless murder of Pete. Charlie makes a break for his house; everyone chases him, throwing stones, one of which smashes a porch lantern, causing the broken glass to fly at Charlie's face, cutting his forehead. Terrified, Charlie attempts to deflect suspicion onto Tommy. While his mother is quick to defend him, several neighbors agree with this idea, as Tommy was the only one who knew about the aliens' plans. Steve continues to try to defuse the situation, but no one listens.

Lights begin flashing on and off in houses throughout the neighborhood; lawnmowers and car engines start and stop for no reason. The mob becomes hysterical, hurling accusations, smashing windows, and taking up weapons as the situation devolves into an all-out riot. Meanwhile, at a nearby hilltop, two humanoid aliens are observing the riot on Maple Street while using a device to manipulate the neighborhood's power. They comment on how simply fiddling with routine leads people to descend into paranoia and panic that can be exploited. They also discuss their intention to use this strategy to conquer Earth, one neighborhood at a time. They then ascend a stairway into their spaceship, which then takes off.

Closing narration

edit

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices ... to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill ... and suspicion can destroy ... and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own—for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is ... that these things cannot be confined to ... The Twilight Zone!

Something to think about, no?

Frankenstein?

 

Its alive!

But it's the democrats keeping it on life support...

The only ones keeping the debate in the news, is the nominees own party!

The dems keep doing the harm that should only be perpetrated by the repubs!

Have they all secretly adopted the 2025 project?

Weve said it before, and we are saying it (again and again and again...)

SHAME, SHAME, SHAME...

frogs... quest post!

 

This was left in our comments section!

The Frogs Who Wanted a King

Once upon a time, the frogs in a pond felt they needed a strong leader to rule over them. "Great Zeus," they prayed, "send us a leader!"

Zeus looked down from the Court of Olympus and replied, "You see that log there? That is your king!"

The frogs complained, "But King Log is boring! He does nothing but lie there. We want an energetic, active king!"

Zeus shrugged and said, "Fine. Here is a stork. You are now ruled by King Stork."

King Stork looked at the pond full of tasty frogs and smiled. First, he ate the brown frogs, then the gay frogs, and soon, he was devouring frogs left and right - all across the spectrum.

He said, "When you're King, they let you do it."

The remaining frogs cried out, "Save us!" but it was too late. As they were being eaten, they realized their mistake and lamented, "We should have appreciated King Log. He might have been boring, but at least he did not harm us."

Thanks for this!

mirror, mirror....

Politically there is one party that believes that they are the party of the righteous  

They constantly accuse others of being unpatriotic un-Christian un-American 

Etc. etc.

It's called mirroring

They reflect back to others exactly what they are doing 

Unfortunately, people do the same thing every day 

They blame all their problems on others while they behave like those they profess to blame 

They end up with nothing and no one 

And they just can't understand why 

Such a waste of time and life

If you take no responsibility 

You are in denial

A sad state of affairs.

legacy...

 

Once upon a time there was a kingdom.

In the kingdom there was a king

The king ruled the people

and the people were submissive and quiet 

because they knew that if they were not, they would be punished, and retribution would rain down on them.

Those who surrounded the king also did his bidding and followed him no matter where he led.

In the end the king had the country that he wanted, and the people were broken and King Donald

got his way.

The Supreme court got its way, and the radicalized right got its way and Michel Obama said, " I

was wrong, we should have got down in the gutter with them. Because in the end they won".

The End?

please ...

remember...
