Prayerful Attacks: A Lesson in Current Events
First a moment of prayer and then the prayerful male attacks Attorney General Loretta Lynch. Shame on the committee. Hypocrisy run wild. Hard to watch.Unbelievable. At least the Democrats on the committee are using their 5 minutes to discuss actual pressing issues...rather than insulting or pontificating rudely in Loretta's direction. Sad to watch good and brilliant and talented people grilled like this with our tax dollars. This country's demise will be at the hands of this endless, small-minded, petty group-think. I know I just mixed my metaphors, and I feel like having a cathartic weep-fest. Ha!
I do not even want to eat out these days. Cannot stand to listen to replays of Fox News from passers by? Misguided Facebook posts bashing Hillary are bad enough. Wondering when the hatred on so many fronts will end...what will it take? Heart-breaking and exhausting and ludicrous not to appreciate this Administration and the many forward thinking individuals serving our nation. Sick unto death of it.
Where is Arthur Miller to write this stuff up? So SALEM...so Nathaniel Hawthorne...
Now on to an endorsement from Bernie...keeping my fingers crossed. Hillary deserves a nice moment...long overdue!

bless you, gene kelly! I appreciate your kind words...just attended the memorial service in dallas...and was moved to tears for several hours...stunning words from many...magnificent prayers offered up by representatives of Judaism, Christianity, and the Islamic faith. michelle and george held hands and swayed to the closing anthem--BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC. barack gave a sweeping eulogy that SHOULD resonate with any living being and down through the ages and he left no stone unturned. could have heard a pin drop. and he barely stopped for breath. his insistence upon unity and respect and tolerance and understanding and justice and fairness was emphatic, empathic, and roaringly gentle! his bible verse selections punctuated his dialogue directed toward and shared with hopefully the entire global population sooner rather than later.
