Disgusting

    I got a little "hope your happy now" message today regarding Kim Davis the county clerk found in contempt of court and placed in jail. No, I'm not happy. I don't want to see this women jailed, I want to see her do her job, and besides, even with her jailed there were no licenses issued today.
    Not once, but twice this woman has placed her hand the bible, and knowing this woman it was probably her family bible, and swore to uphold the constitution of the United States. If you're not able to do this, walk away. This country is not a theocracy and Rowan county is not your little kingdom. (It was brought out in court today that the other clerks have no problem issuing licenses but were in fear of their jobs if they crossed Kim)
    Theocracy according to Websters is defined as "government of a state by divine guidance  or by officials who are regarded as divinely guided". We as a country have sent our loved ones to fight, and die, because of a theocracy in Afghanistan. We look with disdain on countries such as Saudi Arabia, whose women are not only not allowed to drive b/c of religious teachings they're not even allowed to go out by themselves. We even have hard liners in this country calling for more of  our loved ones to fight another theocratic organization in ISIS. And now, now we have politicians heaping "atta girls"on this woman and praising her stand for her theocratic beliefs.
     Its quite disgusting really. They'll send our troops to stop theocracies but stand up for theocratic beliefs at home.

    I don't think she belongs in jail but I also think she should be fired and we are told that is impossible, short of impeachment which they say is unlikely. The alternative was jail and she is committing a crime so lock her up!! She probably belongs in a mental hospital where she can be deprogrammed. I think the woman is a bit nutso!!

The Straw?

    Well now he's gone and done it. Could this be the straw that breaks the camels back?     I would think that most historians would agree that the last thing a presidential candidate should be doing is sitting in front of a computer at five in morning telling the world to check out this kickass new sex tape he just came across. That by itself might turn off a couple likely supporters but that's not what made so many other people upset. What Donald ultimately did is unforgivable to many, me included.     Americans take their celebrity sex tapes very seriously and he directed us to a lame ass tape taken from a reality TV show. How bogus is that? Hell, most people don't even think it's really sex and was just a stunt to draw viewers. Americans are used to top-of-line sex tapes, it's one of things we do best. You had half the adults in the country googling away for the next Pam and Tommy Lee but all they found was a frisky Ozzie and Harriott.That's not gonna win

All in a Days Work (part II)

    I know many will find this hard to believe but I spend a lot of time in church. Many different churches actually. From small churches out in the country, the kind that still have the tote board in the lobby that keeps track of attendance and donations, to big churches that take up a half a city block and in which I've actually gotten lost before. Most churches have security and/or fire systems in varying degrees of depth. Fire systems because jurisdictions require them in buildings where people gather and security due to the fact that some churches have sound and recording equipment that a lot of musicians would die for.     This week I had a call to make at a Freewill Baptist that, as Freewill Baptist churches go, is pretty big. When I called the Pastor to let him know I was on the way he said he would meet me there to unlock the door and my reaction was, cool, he's going to let me in to do my thing and I'll have an empty building with no impediments to get my work do

And Your Winner Is

    Who will be the next President?     When I look at polling one of the first ones that I cast out is a general election poll. They don't matter one iota because we use an electoral college to select our president. You can carry the popular vote and still lose, as we've witnessed before.     Using the Fox News interactive as of today Hillary has 205 electoral votes to Donalds 164 with 12 states undecided and 270 needed to win. The 12 undecided they have are Nev, Col, Ari, Iowa, Wisc, Mich, Ohio, Pa, Va, NC, Ga, and Fla.    538.com lists Wisc, Mich, Pa, and Vir as better than 80% to vote Hillary and Ga, Ari, Iowa are probably Trumps. That puts us at 264 to 197 leaving 5 states Nev, Ohio ,Fla, NC, and Col. All Hillary has to do is win one of those states. Even if it's just Nev and their 6 votes, it puts her at 270.
