Loud mouths to the left and right of me


There are times when those who complain about another tends to repeat those very same antics that they railed so viciously against.  Case in point, Republicans take on “Obamacare” as “pulling the plug on grandma” only to now stand for a proposal that would completely change Medicare and Medicaid as we know it.  This is now the same track that some on the left are following.  Their take on bringing Osama bin Laden out of the compound alive when they were also the ones who kept implying that the Bush Administration wasn’t doing enough to bring bin Laden to justice.  If media checks their past responses, they may be surprised to find them saying that the death of bin Laden would be a good thing.  Now that this has come to pass, they are saying the exact opposite.

I do not know who appointed Laura Flanders, Michael Moore, Rosie O Donnell and others to be the Democratic spokespersons but they do not speak for me.  I am quite content that Osama has been released from this world so that he is free now to haunt hell.  The cause of the Navy Seals to access the situation and make a determination in half a second was just.  To sit safely in your lounge chairs and question the intelligence of my fellow military members does not sit well with me.  To say that these Seals were sent on a kill mission is sadly underestimating the difference a second can make between living and dying.  They were sent on a mission to capture or kill Osama bin Laden and the result was his death, plain and simple.

Regarding the release of the photo, the “professional left” tends to forget the deaths caused by the burning of the Koran or the recruitment increase and the stigma left from treatment of those prisoners by those military prison guards.  Having that photo released means that those who would exploit that photo will have to rely on the fake ones currently circulating instead of having a real one to photo shop.  This photo can not be used as a poster child for al-Quada to proclaim an Islamic extremist holiday but maybe that’s really what the “professional left” want.  Some members on a specific committee were given the option of viewing the photo and let it be known that the family of the fallen on 9/11 do have the opportunity to view the photo as well.  Many of the family choose not to because they feel like they can trust their president to have done what he said.  They do not require proof and maybe it’s time the “professional left” extended him the same courtesy.  Stay tough on him to keep working to make America better but leave the second guessing to Fox News.

Movie Review-Harlan Coben's Shelter

  The movie Shelter is based on the bestselling series by Harlan Coben, it follows the story of Mickey Bolitar (Jaden Michael) after the death of his father leads him to start a new life in suburban New Jersey. When another new student disappears, Mickey finds himself tangled in a web of secrets. With the help of two new friends, Spoon (Adrian Greensmith) and Ema (Abigale Corrigan), they reveal a dark underground that may hold the answers to decades of disappearances. Keeping me totally engrossed from the first episode to the last was not really the storyline or the actions and dramas, it was how awesomely those actors and actresses played their roles.   It seemed so effortless, watching them, that it was easy to forget it was a movie/series. I could not control my anxiousness to start the next episode.   Not many movies can make me feel the same emotions that the players were supposed to feeling but man, this was one and that journey this series took me on was one that I must go on

The Determination of History to Repeat Itself is Due to our Cowardice to Stop It

  America has always been the land of opportunity however we have become lax in our efforts to ensure that this right is made available for all of us to achieve and enjoy.   Far too often, those who see themselves in a position of authority or great wealth begin to confuse themselves with an idea that since you may be thought of as successful, means your now have the power and authority to dictate to everyone else. This lying power makes those allowed to flex it feel bigger and better than they really are.   It gives them a false sense of righteousness and security over all people, places, and things which must be corrected before we completely lose our very humanity. Every last one of us knows this is wrong but history has allowed these individuals to exercise this false position of power without consequences and punishment. Every one of us is guilty of sitting on our hands and waiting on someone else to save us instead of finding our own intestinal fortitude to save ourselves.   We

Something to Think About Regarding These State’s Abortion Bans

  According to an article titled “The Conversation- A concise history of the US abortion debate, by Treva B. Lindsey, Professor of Women's, Gender and Sexuality Studies, The Ohio State University, Published: June 10, 2019, https://theconversation.com/a-concise-history-of-the-us-abortion-debate-118157 . History has again been totally ignored and the lesson lost.   This being the case, it bears out the great need for educated people to finally diagnose history as it happens and make the necessary changes to ensure that this particular piece of history is not constantly repeated. Consider this, “While many may think that the political arguments over abortion now are fresh and new, scholars of women’s, medical and legal history note that this debate has a long history in the U.S.   It began more than a century before Roe v. Wade. As of 2019 “around 1962 the Food and Drug Administration approved the first commercially produced birth control pill, Enovid-10. Although various forms of b
