REGURGITATIONS

     My 50+ years on this earth I've had many extraordinary experiences.  I've have taken advantage of everything America had to offer.  Early on, at the age of nineteen, I learned my first adult lessons about participation in the American way of life.  Regrettably, I learned sometimes America is not what it is portrayed to be.  I learned the American Dream is not necessarily the goal we chase but the way we retell the story of America.  Revisionist history is often the American Dream.  We long for the good old days, not when America was necessarily great but when we were young enough not to know any better.  Don't misunderstand me.  America has done some great things.  Technology and War are two of our greatest things.  But when you take a closer look at the "Greatness" of America you will find it was never great for all, and rarely great for most.      I am astonished how many Americans can pr...

     Isis has attacked in America.   Why?   Because they should… just as we would.   Evidently ISIS decided it is better to fight us over here… than to fight us over there.   Sound familiar?        The terrorists.

Like most modern day Christians, Jones and his followers proved to be trash talkers. This is exactly why the Muslims are getting all the press around the world. Weak ass 21st century Christians cannot stand up to PUBLIC PRESSURE much less a heavily armed, kidney failing, inordinately tall Muslim. The Muslims, at the EXTREME end, demonstrate more dedication, focus, and commitment than their soft and indecisive Christians counterparts whose last real claim to fame was the burning of witches some four hundred years ago. Today's Christians are mere shadows of their greatest generation forefathers who killed hundreds of thousands in the Crusades. The EXTREME Muslims do not hesitate to strap on a bomb, drive a car packed with explosives into the marketplace or train their children to act as human shields. While Muslim ch...
