You really nailed it Lorraine. Scares the heck out of me. We can’t let them win not even a mm.

Thanks Larry. We need to vote out all GOP in November!

They don't deserve to be a party... jeez what has happened to them. I have never been a republican and could not stand Reagan but he must be rolling in his grave.

I've hated the GOP for decades. The party needs to die. Good riddance.

Me too... I am triggered when people say reach across the aisle. Really? Toward what? Everything they do is in bad faith. I will only allow myself to be Lucy Footballed for the greater good so often.

They reap what they sow. I'm done.

In this case it is the grim reapers or an army of avatars of the grim reaper.

A party? Hmmmm. Looking at the party from the outside I see a tea party—more likely bourbon—of older white men, wearing hats that they keep changing, pouring their tea for older white women who are, also, wearing hats. It is a party of Mad Hatters.

OMG Jim you just reminded me of the crazy Silicon Valley Dot-Com days, it was one big party. One of our friends had an annual crazy hat party and it was a blast. Some of my best memories.

Thanks Lorraine. It is interesting to see today's religious leaders using the same tactics as they have been using since the time of the Prophets. They are manipulators of truth to perpetuate their power. They serve the Gog and Magog that Robertson drones about.

R E S I S T. Speak truth to power.

Kudos, Lorraine!

Thank you Manuel. Since ancient times, taking advantage of the vulnerable. Sinful. 💙🙏🏻

Wow that's amazing insight. Thank you Alan. Pat Robertson says it starts with Russian invasion of Ukraine. But as you say, it doesn't matter where, they just want destruction of everything except their white nationalist cult.

I fall back to the wisdom of the song lyrics who’s version I like best:

BLLOD SWEAT AND TEARS

‘I swear there ain’t no heaven

And I pray there ain’t no hell.”

Lorraine Evanoff's avatar

Great band and I love those lyrics too.

It's news to me. This is part of the "rapture" or something? They want total destruction? Who wants this? Which denominations? I have so many questions!

Oh lord. It doesn't sound very literal. It must have been meant as some kind of awakening in the original writings. Of course organized religion just uses it as a means to an end.

I live in GA. I concur.

Jim Sanders's avatar

Three of my favorite songs are about Georgia:

Georgia—Ray Charles

Rainy night in Georgia—Brook Benton

Midnight train to Georgia—Gladys Knight and the Pips

So when I start only seeing the bad in Georgia, these three and you remind there is also the good. Thank you.

Lorraine Evanoff's avatar

Agreed. GA is a beautiful place and like Florida, it's heartbreaking to see what the GOP have wrought there.

I'm not the one who's "over the top" Bill

Johnson's White Nationalists are over the top.

Here's a recent video of Pat Robertson, one of the most consequential evangelical leaders to build white Christian nationalists into a political force, taking over the GOP claiming the path to Israel's destruction begins with Russia's destruction of Ukraine.

P.S. Stop fuckin' trolling me Bill, or I WILL block you.

I'm so exhausted, Alicia. He wasn't bad but every comment was some kind of trolling falsehood. Peace out.
