Sam Brownback is an evangelical hiding, at times, behind appearances at the local Catholic church. Even as a Catholic he is Opus Dei so he is the radical leader Kansas needed to go off the deep end. It just infuriates me to see these women put down their own sex although with Ann Coulter her sex is debatable. Tony and I talk about this all the time as he and I were raised in homesw where God and Jesus were peaceful people and there was not absolute emphasis on the religious side of things although both families attended services. He has a unique way of looking at it – he says most of the violence in the Old Testament(and God’s interference) is because man could not get it right so as a last resort he sent his son to bring peace. I am not much into religion of any kind but I like his explanation whether right or wrong. As for the women who voted against it, they are so depraved they could sleep at night if they knew someone was going to die as a result of their vote. And that is exactly what their no vote said. You get beat up, you die, tough shit. » Posted By SueInCa On March 11, 2013 @ 7:08 pm Absolutely correct and I ask myself every day how such a party can exist in this America. I am so disappointed in Congress overall right now. There are a few people I would leave out of that equation but even some of the more well known Dems are on my “shitlist”. I am so tired of supporting a group of people who will not speak up but to support Repubs is not even on the radar. I have a difficult time understanding why Democrats did not make this a big deal. Why did they not hit them over and over on this? There are many people who have either experienced this, I will call it a crime because I think it is, that would have been so grateful to see a champion in Washington speak out. Granted I do not watch the network news anymore and there could have been someone somewhere but I do peruse the headlines and I never saw a real champion for the women and men who experience this crime. » Posted By SueInCa On March 11, 2013 @ 1:29 pm Oscar Night- When “not boring” is high praise Thats true. » Posted By SueInCa On February 26, 2013 @ 10:53 am It is funny Murph but I think anyone who has been to the lincoln memorial thinks of Lincoln as a stone profile.

Another problem hollywood has is in the person of Stephen Spielberg and now it seems Ben Affleck. It is mystifying to me how a film could win for best picture and snub the director. The Director makes it all possible, schedules, calling scenes completion etc etc. Of course the actors make a movie too but if the actors were good enough for the film to win, how could the director not be good enough? Same with Spielberg. » Posted By SueInCa On February 26, 2013 @ 9:18 am Why thank you Watson. The only concession to the awards shows was I wanted to see the tribute to Bob Marley on the Grammys so I went back and forth to make sure I caught it. Actually I do like the performances that are put on but just cannot sit through all the me me me stuff. » Posted By SueInCa On February 26, 2013 @ 9:12 am CNN puts the show on every Thanksgiving. BET does a show once a year. Those are the only two I can think of off the top of my head. » Posted By SueInCa On February 26, 2013 @ 9:09 am Murph » Posted By SueInCa On February 25, 2013 @ 7:38 pm Hey Murph Good write up on the Oscars. I am one of the few who refuses to watch them or any awards shows unless it is People’s Choice or American Music Awards. I used to watch them religiously and we would have people over and all but probably have not seen a show since sometime in 95. I just got tired of all the narcissism and patting their own backs. My first disappointment in that department was with The Color Purple. A movie that has withstood the test of time and the academy more or less ignored it. Was the story line a bit too true for them to acknowledge? I also had to think twice when Marlon Brando refused his award for the godfather because of Hollywood’s terrible treatment of native americans. Then Hattie McDaniel won her Oscar however could not sit at the big table up front with the other cast members because the Ambassador Hotel was still segregated. She was relegated to a table in the back of the room. Hollywood did nothing to correct these wrongs. Those are the kinds of things I want to see happen at the Oscars. I guess I would just rather make my own decisions about what films I want to see. Life of Pi, Lincoln, Argo, Django Unchained, Flight were all good movies IMHO. I don’t need people in Hollywood telling me what movies are good because that is just their own humble opinion yet they continue to parade around every year because they are so narcissistic. All that money could be better spent helping out people who need operations they cannot afford, donating to food banks, donating to wildlife organizations. Doing something lasting because while films are good entertainment, they can not take the place of a human caring about others. I drive my daughter nuts because she loves all that red carpet stuff. I tried a few years ago to watch it with her but ended up reading my book after all. » Posted By SueInCa On February 25, 2013 @ 5:06 pm The Houston Astros sign stealing scandal resulted from revelations that members of the Houston Astros organization in Major League Baseball (MLB) illegally stole signs of opposing teams using technology during the 2017 and 2018 seasons. For years, other MLB teams had suspected the Astros of stealing signs. Details about the team’s activities were first publicly reported by journalists Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich for The Athletic in November 2019. Mike Fiers, a pitcher who played for the Astros in 2017, told The Athletic that the organization used a video camera in center field to film the opposing catchers’ signs to the pitchers. Astros players or team staffers watching the live camera feed behind the dugout would then signal to their batter what kind of pitch was coming. MLB opened an investigation into the allegations and in January 2020 confirmed that the Astros illegally used a camera system to steal signs during the 2017 regular season and postseason, during which they won the World Series, as well as in part of the 2018 season. » Posted By SueInCa On February 24, 2020 @ 11:22 am That is a good analogy of Mayor Pete. His elitist friends are desperatley trying to hide the damage he caused in South Bend. He just sounds like a commercial for whiter teeth. » Posted By SueInCa On February 24, 2020 @ 11:15 am After the sex scandal at that Texas University, he already found his pig mud to wallow in. » Posted By SueInCa On January 21, 2020 @ 9:23 am I do plan to be there. » Posted By SueInCa On January 21, 2020 @ 9:21 am LOL, I need to write things down.

I am probably too jaded but perhaps if there was recognition for some regular people in all this hoopla it would be easier for me to stomach. I know in their own individual ways many celebrities contribute to causes I hold near and dear and some I only find out about because they bring them to light. Maybe it is the constant round of “awards” that bugs me. Oscars, Grammys, CMA, BET, Golden Globes, SAG Awards, Emmy’s on and on. I mean how many awards must they congratulate themselves with? I am not a big fan of CNN but I would rather watch awards for everyday heroes. They are the people who very seldom get recognition. And most of them are humbled by it.

When all seemed to be falling apart for Trump this summer, one shadowy billionaire offered up his own massive political infrastructure, which included Steve Bannon and Kellyanne Conway, and saved Trump’s campaign from demise
I saw that draft the other day and it chilled me to my bones even though I knew I was waiting for it to come down the pipe. I have to give credit to the wonderful writers who helped me understand what was going on:
Chris Hedges
Bob Edgar
Max Blumenthal
Bruce Wilson
Dr. Robin Meyers
Jeff Sharlet
et al
Bannon, Bossie and CONway are all backed by billionaire Peter Mercer. He is the one who was responsible for the shake up in August. He is a Dominionist and had backed Ted Cruz. When Trump agreed to add his minions to the campaign he put his money behind Trump. He also owns Data Analyticals whose parent company says they have effected elections and fomented coups around the world. Our election WAS the coup.
