GOP Establishment may be handing Newt Gingrich a win in South Carolina

Latest news being offered regarding the Gingrich Super Pac, Winning Our Future is that “Newt Gingrich begins to distance himself from the "King of Bain" ads” this is according to Joy Lin of Fox News in an article titled Pro-Gingrich Group Asks Romney for Help in Identifying 'King of Bain' Inaccuracies.  While many believe that this ad is what may be propelling Newt Gingrich in the polls, I believe it is something else.

One of the most die-hard of any sentiment for Americans is feeling that they are being told who they should vote for.  This is one freedom many will never relinquish.  The established Republicans who fall in line behind Romney may soon learn that their wish is not always the command of the voters.  Voters know that they are really the ones who decide the person or persons that they wish to represent them and no matter how much the establishment yells, their voices could fall on deaf ears.

The only problem with this is the voters still have not found a way to make those who they hire follow through on their campaign promises.  Many of us remember the rhetoric of people like John Boehner, Eric Cantor, Alan West and the rest of those promising jobs when they ran and we should remember that these same people have not introduced one bill or supported any bill that would do just that.  The Republican voters may have a hard time holding their elected officials feet to the fire but they do not appear to have any problem thumbing their nose at those who believe that they control whom they vote for.

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
