Thank you for taking the time to have a look and a listen...I'm sincerely grateful for your support


Pearls Before Swine - Uncle John

_____________________________________________________________________
You stand up on the platform with the flag wrapped all around you
And tell us that the bible says to fight for it we're bound to
But the red's for the blood we lose, the white's for the gauze they use
To cover burned-out blackened men, the rest is for the bodies numb and blue

R.I.P. Mr. Rapp. link

Truly you saw them for what they are...greedy lying fakes.

Such as Traitor Trump   aka Twitter-ly Dumb.

This is a very thought provoking photo.  Jesus said to "render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's", or in other words, never the twain should meet between the church and the state.  For people that like to thump the Bible they are woefully ignorant of what it actually teaches.

Well, In God we trust, in the country we do not!  
This remembers me about another song, more modern:
"Human beings in a mob
What's a mob to a king? What's a king to a god?
What's a god to a non-believer who don't believe in anything?
Will he make it out alive? Alright, alright, no church in the wild..."
I do not know if you will like this kind of songs, but, the guy is saying the truth...

Is what politics is all about after all... unfortunately... The Flag has nothing to do with it... but church does...

These days I don't trust nor believe in neither God nor Country
To quote John Lennon's "Imagine" tune, "I just believe in me. (Insert wife's name) Meri and me. That's reality."
Great lyrics, not so great tune

Is modern song, all in all commercial, what did you expect?
Well, my friend, on one hand, is good this way, to just believe in our families, in ourselves... on the other hand, is exactly this what gives the mother(that)rs free hand to do what they want. People do not believe in people anymore, and comes one like Trump and does what he does with no shame what so ever. And we fail to see that, behind him, are many more Trumps, very in "accord" with him, so very interested to do anything except what is right for the flag... Is not Trump the traitor there, there are many traitors, and many, are not ruling USA, dear friend... they rule everywhere...  If I only could explain what is really happening right now in my country with beloved Catalunia, known by you as Catalonia... 
Then there are even more countries... Trump is not alone in this, never was... Without strong support, nobody can do a thing... not even God...

I didn't say I was apathetic...I just said I don't believe in God or Country. But I believe in a fair and just world in which human rights and freedom rule the day. That cocksucker posing as the so called "leader of the free world" is a disgrace to everything decent in this world.

Don´t worry, Richard, nobody would think you´re apathetic, even if you would want to... all you do says just the opposite. I was speaking per general... (like, for instance, look what happened when Trump was elected... he relied on people who just wanted some changes, mocked on them, fooled them... This is what I wanted to say... most politics relies on the "innocence" of the people.)
You see only him, I see many that are a disgrace, but, then, what's a fair and just world, if people cannot do a thing when everything just goes wrong? 
Huh, I entered in fields that are not very much on my taste, but well... is your fault, why don´t you just submit flower-works? jajjaja  
I know you´re right, Richard, I know...

Thanks man...for clarifying that
As for Traitor Trump...he wasn't elected. He lost the popular vote by nearly 4 million votes. But we also have this bizarre antiquated system here in the States called the Electoral College in addition to the popular. This "college" is made up of 538 delegates who are suppose to represent 321 million people. This system is from over 200 years ago when America first got her independence from England. In a nutshell America was largely ruled by agrarian farmers. At election time many said they weren't going to take the time to travel three days by horse and buggy to the cities to cast their votes for president while it was time to harvest their crops. So they came up with the notion of having one person represent them as a district and for that person to make the trip and cast their majority vote. We are not an agrarian nation anymore and haven't been for years. Anyway back on point, Traitor Trump won the electoral college votes, which superseded the popular vote, with the help of Putin's Russia in which they hacked into voting machines in three districts in three key states. They only had to flip 70,000 votes to sway the delegates that the people wanted Traitor Trump. And that's exactly what they did and he STOLE the election with the help of a foreign hostile adversary. That's TREASON and that's what the Special Prosecutor is investigating. How much did this fake president know and when did he know it.
I know, I'm an agitator. Traitor Trump will round up my ilk soon and put us in interment camps for rehabilitation. Did someone say Big Brother? George Orwell? 1984?

Good comment and I think it does. Separation of church and state is written in our constitution but as of late church in the form of organized religion has its dirty paws inside the political houses of this country. So another piece of our constitution is used by Traitor Trump to wipe his obese ass with. Assuming that he even wipes that shit-hole.

...And assuming he can find it, with both hands and a mirror and Melania giving him directions

I do read about american politics; in the run up to your last election I felt like a lot of you guys would have been despairing of the choices.
I hope that doesn't sound presumptious. Re' church & state that Cruz guy seemed a tad scary to me, like the kind of guy who would have blurred that line.
I do believe it's an important separation to keep.
Here's to politicians, in an insane world they're simultaeneously our greatest horror and comedy figures!

X 1000000. They use a hefty lift.
Yeah, there were faults with both candidates. But Hilary sincerely loves her country....this cocksucker who invited Russia to hack us and colluded with Putin to invade certain voting machines in key districts in key States to "steal" the election from the American people by 70,000 votes that gave him the antiquated electoral college majority (three million more votes were cast for Hilary in the popular vote) is a traitor who loves only himself...and our money.

We don't have it much better in the UK with Theresa May & a government that seems determined to use any trick to keep themselves in power.
