All The News That Fits


There is a lot in the ABC network news.  The Russians are helping out the Bernie Sanders campaign.  Bernie is slated to win the Nevada caucus today and also to get the majority of deligates on Super Tuesday on March 3rd.   Early voting begins today here in California.  Bernie had disowned Russian help saying Putin will be seen for the con man he is when Bernie becomes president.  President Trump was so mad at the intelligence agencies for sending information to congress that he fired the director of national intelligence.  He has the German ambassador in the slot now, who has no background in intelligence.  Trump plans to get a permanent guy in there soon.  I will say that one thing in Bernie’s favor over Bloomberg is that no democrat has ever won a presidential election in the last sixty years with solid Black support.  And Bernie will open the floodgates of new voters getting involved.  And I maintain getting new voters involved and into civics is a good thing.  Mike Bloomberg has back down from his “no disclosure agreement retraction” stance under pressure from Elizabeth Warren and others.  Now Mike admits that he created a hostile working environment and from now on he’s releasing these women from the NDA’s they made.  Good.   Elizabeth Warren said “There is a candidate running for president who has referred to women as “fat broads and horse faced lezbians” and It isn’t Donald Trump but Mike Bloomberg. There are rumors now that Mayor Pete is running out of money and will have to soon withdraw from the Presidential race.   This is fine with me.  But the guy seems pretty cocky.  President Trump has concluded a deal with the Talliban in Afghanistan to have no fighting for a week and after this we’re going to sign a peace treaty with them.  We wish the president God’s speed.  Our prayers are with him that everything he does in foreign policy will be successful.  Harvey Weinstein so far has been convicted on three counts of rape but they are hung up on the two counts of predatory behavior.  Then went to the judge yesterday at noon and the judge told them to get back to work.  But they got the afternoon off and won’t be back till Monday.   Now they say the Corona virus is a “pandemic” and experts expect the virus to get much worse in this country.  Commerce from China has slowed down drastically.  I went to dinner.  We had a hot dog and mustard and pickle relish but no onion or tomato.  We had a macaroni salad with that.  Apparently we had a fruit cup for dessert.  This may have been Jeff’s last meal here but we’ve thought that before.  Patty announced that she saw the next round of bed bug spraying notices on the other side of the hall from me.  I saw just two notices in this hall.  At least they skipped us again and for that I am grateful. 

It could be that some statements made by Christians have a whole other, more profound meaning, if you look at them in the paranoid light I see them in.   For instance Christians are fond of making the statement “If Jesus Christ never did another thing in my life I would still owe him an eternal debt of gratitude for his dying on the cross and saving me from an eternity in hell.  Just as an aside, I would hate growing up when the albitros around my neck that at the end of my life I have to endure an agonizing death so that untold millions, it not billions, can be spared an eternity in Hell and a lifetime floating around in a cloud in heaven.   Now, suppose you are a rogue spirit who may have sinned in a past life or have been under scorn or centure by your fellow spirits.  Maybe you are in a hellish state you would give anything to escape.  Now you have a chance, a promise of God, to get a “good life” taking over a body here on planet earth.  You have the right to rob the former inhabitant of the body of whatever positive karma he has built up and you get to appropriate the glory from that.  You get a promise of God of great success and “pleasures at your right hand” to quote scripture.   I believe these are Edomized Ceutaurians who take over here.  These are part of a plan of the Holy Spirit or something to take over and populate and rule earth.  Maybe you think this is a good thing.  Maybe you think it’s God will being carried out and whatever brings God glory is fine with you.   There are people who do not agree.  But it’s understandable that such a person would make the statement of “If Jesus never did another thing for me I would owe him everything” because just your being alive and in a human body, a chance you never thought you’d have again, you are grateful.  Some may say to me “Well, perhaps there is some truth in what you are saying- - on an allegorical level.  Our lives were surrounded by Satan and his demons and our destiny was doomed, until Christ delivered us from all that and translated us into the Kingdom of Heaven”.   But you must know that there are others who are still “waiting” for God to do anything in their lives.   They go through the motions and put on a good act and praise God, but it’s all in vain.  This whole line of reason is something I bet people like Neil Savedra haven’t even thought of.
