I saw this today and thought of you Stilli.

After reading this I asked myself what our country would look like if someone 'christ-like' were running it.

Restorative Justice, maybe even the basic income for everyone idea so that there was an end to poverty, homelessness, hunger, universal health care. Probably bigger taxes for the top to pay from the programs needed to make the basics of life good for all. Inspiration for people to do their part for the good of all.

I am not a christian and I even just joined a private FB group for ex-Christian Scientists to help me further heal from the programming involved in my religious upbringing but my mom, who is also an ex-Christian Scientist recently explained to me, I am not a Christian but I try to be christ-like, and she does. Of course it was only six or seven years ago or so that I got her to stop watching Fox News and now she listens to liberal radio which I don't even do lol.

Hahahaha, indeed! Arthur,

I have no other place to put this thought.

There is this sweet sweet journalist at Salon.

Her picture is so damn sweet.

And I think this might be taken as sexist or ageist or whatever.

I don't care.

Catch her here:

I do not think my embed worked.

It is just that besides Precious, I have never seen such a sweet fact.

I read her all the time.

where in the hell do you get to look that sweet and still write?

I get a kick out of her.

Where else could I make this point? hahahahahah

I have one home with a sore throat and cough. It is common core testing week for him. Oldest girl flying in today for the youngest birthday. I still have to write his name on his cake. He will be 8 years old. So all is well.

I dunno either.

But Justice Thomas votes against any claim made by

Afro-Americans.

Rubio really does not give a goddamn about Hispanics.

And he hates Cubans for chrissakes!

But women can make money and fame by ignoring women's rights.

If you live in Texas or Oklahoma or Arizona, you will have to drive to California to purchase birth control pills or ask a doctor to save your life in case of some birth issues.

Hell, I could possibly receive ten times more hits on my blogs if I called for the death of gay folks. hahahahah

Money is the answer to your query. At least that is my prediction.

Hey, how are those beautiful grandkids anyway.

Mine are pretty oh so pretty and happy and interesting.

I think many women don't

I think many women don't believe it is directed to them. They have comfortable lives. They are disconnected from many of the realities that other people face that don't have the opportunities they have. I always call them well taken care of. They see only what they want to see because they feel they have done things right. They live in the paradigm of their own lives.

Then you have the low information women who buy into the simple sound bites that are simple and appealing answers to problems. They will vote against their own interest as long as they think they are preventing the unworthy from milking the system. LBJ talked about how as long as a politician can make a group of people believe there is another group to blame, you can get them to vote against what is good for themselves to keep low lives from having any benefits. They don't understand that their hardships are politically structured and not caused by what they see as a class lower then them. It is structured that way because of greed by the few.

I made a comment on another thread pointing out what was so obvious about Kansas' law limiting the withdrawal to only $25 for welfare cash benefits. This was setting up a structure to benefit a private company that wanted to make money from the system. Now look at how that has been presented as a way to keep the lazy low lives from using the money for vices and pleasure.

I have spent my whole life waiting for women to vote as a block. Becoming a part of a sisterhood that will make our lives better in the political world. That is why I want to see HRC break that glass ceiling.
