From the "Dr. Spock... you ruined our nation!" department - Online headline/story: "Border chief directly contradicts Trump on Central America * Trump tweeted, "“Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador are doing nothing for the United States but taking our money,” * “Word is that a new Caravan is forming in Honduras and they are doing nothing about it. We will be cutting off all aid to these 3 countries - taking advantage of U.S. for years!” * McAleenan said, “The need is for an accountable partner on the part of the Guatemalan, Honduran and El Salvadorian governments,” * “When we work together, with well-targeted programs and really targeting them at areas where we’re seeing migration like the Western Highlands of Guatemala where there’s a real poverty and hunger crisis — it’s one of the most food insecure regions in the hemisphere, huge rates of malnutrition.” -- Good grief! When America believed Dr Spock about not spanking "children" has to be the core of LIBERALISM, and liberals have taken it to new heights!

From the "Animal Farm - 2018" department - Online headline.story: "Washington (State) residents "are very excited about the prospect of becoming a tree or having a different alternative,” state Sen. Jamie Pedersen said. * When Americans die, most are buried or cremated. Washington could soon become the first state to allow another option: human composting. * The novel approach, known as “recomposition,” involves placing bodies in a vessel and hastening their decomposition into a nutrient-dense soil that can then be returned to families." -- Good grief.. sounds like something Hitler would have been involved with! ...and what kind of "vessel" does the State Sen imagine... a 55 gallon steel drum? If burial cost issues are a reason for suggesting this then families could just "box: the body up, leave it on heir front steps, and let "porch pirates" steal it..

I have seen so many ads by Rabbi Eckstein, and now he's added his daughter to the tear-jerking ads about Israeli and Russian survivors of the holocaust, that I decided to check him out...He keeps asking for $25.00 to give food to a starving Jewish holocaust survivor, but it sounds like he wants his money first...he takes over a million dollars (about 40,000 $25.00 donations) for himself, and I'm sure his Vice-President daughter earns quite a chunk herself. And no telling how many donations are diverted from donors to pay for the ad campaign to raise more $25.00 donations.

Thursday night, I caught the last 20 minutes of a movie I really liked.."Remember the Titans"...and I looked up the characters to learn more about the real characters. What I learned also was the use of 'poetic licensing' by the director/script writer was full of bogus incitements of racial unrest that did not happen. Shame on Hollywood for encouraging division by making up plot lines that discourage real healing...they did it to "Glory Road" as well... I remembered that season so well as I was at Mississippi State, and got to see Kentucky's "Rupp's Runts" who lost the championship game to the U. Texas El Paso "Cinderella" team. I saw movie scenes that nauseated me, and then learned the writer/director made them up as in incendiary moments to rouse racial issues. Shame on Hollywood!
