Debra J. Saunders is a conservative columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle. Syndicated by Creators Syndicate, her thrice weekly column is also carried by newspapers throughout the country and on townhall.com.
Debra's editorial - appearing in the Everett Herald on 9-23-16 - hits Trashmouth right in the pocketbook!
In essence, Trashmouth does rob Peter to pay Paul, or in this case, he takes money from others, puts it in his "pocket" and then makes claims that he is the one paying charities with his own money. He is now being looked at carefully, concerning monies given to his foundation and used to pay legal obligations - which is a violation of the law.
Okay, so if you have been reading any of my recent posts - you know that I am pretty much anti-Trashmouth.
Kathleen's editorial of 9-22-16 clearly hits the nail on the head as to why he isn't presidential material. And why so many folks believe he isn't either.
I would just like to state that I was brought up in a Republican (very staunch) family, however, later in life I questioned what that party stood for, and became an Independent.
A heart filled with anger has no room for love.
Joan Lunden
Joan Lunden (born September 19, 1950) cohosted Good Morning America from 1980 to 1997, reporting on five presidents and five Olympics and visiting 26 countries. But her interests have also remained close to home, where she supports women’s health and wellness initiatives and has written books on diet and nutrition, family caregiving, and how to create positive life changes. In Had I Known: A Memoir of Survival, the mother of seven chronicles her battle with breast cancer.
Joan, thank you for this wonderful thought - there is one person running for a national office who certainly doesn't seem to live by this - he manages to create hate daily.
If a man is not faithful to his own individuality, he cannot be loyal to anything.
Claude McKay
Jamaican poet and novelist Claude McKay (born September 15, 1889) emerged as a powerful voice of the Harlem Renaissance with the publication of two volumes of poetry, Spring in New Hampshire and Harlem Shadows, and the novel Home to Harlem. He not only experienced life in New York, but also in the Soviet Union, France, Spain, and Morocco. Ultimately he returned to America, becoming a U.S. citizen in 1940.
Thank you Seattle Mariners, for showing the world that athletes do care.
Thank you Seattle Seahawks for taking a United Stand at your game on 9-11-16.
You are only as strong as your weakest link, so goes the saying - Seahawks you are strong.
On the advice of a library patron, I took this DVD series home with me - we are only watching one segment at a time, it is VERY heavy, the first season has, I believe 12 segments. We just heard that it is going into season 3, so it must have hit the right audience.
If you are familiar with Julie Walters (Educating Rita, Mrs. Weasley of Harry Potter series, and Mamma Mia film you know who she is) plays the most despicable Englishwoman, I have ever seen, in this series. So, I can pretty much say that her acting abilities are quite spectacular, as she has run the gauntlet of light to heavy characters.
This is set in India during the 1940's, when the English still ruled "imperially" over much of the world - (and people call Americans the "Ugly American"). Their treatment of the Indian population was despicable!
Interesting look at history from a different perspective.
