In this season of Thanksgiving

many of the russian people are brainwashed, as are half of americans

 

Well said Mr. Wilson. Difficult issues requiring difficult decisions. Sad thing about it is lives that are lost.

 

Russia is bad, but IMHO calling it genocide cheapens that word.

Since ‘civilized’ folk cannot be convinced to demolish the UN and salt the earth that it sits upon, we’re forced to use a UN based solution, without a complete understanding of how ‘The War to End All Wars’ got STARTED.
One of my favorite arguments against those who believe that we got involved in the FIRST world war for fun and profit is the fact that we were making money hand over fist BEFORE that infamous telegram gave (the other) Edith an opening.

The segue into mass shootings is even more interesting.
Chicago had 55 shot and 11 killed not that many weekends ago, but…….

Pass the cranberries, please.

Wow, Bisco, Wow....!
I just happen to be reading books about our country from the 1800 to reconstruction. Our nation as been to hell and back, and sometimes I think most of us have forgotten this. I am thankful, I am grateful and I am blessed.

 

I will follow with this. From 1840 to 1897, there are glaring similarities to what we are going through now. I have learned to accept the fact that a true democracy will always have adversity, otherwise it would not be a democracy. In a democracy, the population will always be diverse in its thinking, beliefs and voting. It's our documents (Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, Bill of rights, the Amendments) that will right the ship and see us through tough times.

 

They seem to be working thus far…..
