My liberal friend complains I am always negative and that's true
This is the latest positive from my radical friend:.
"You right wingers, always the same old, same old. Never anything positive, J"
So let's go negative with more truth:
Pretty f''ing sad, no? Snopes is hysterical on this and
gives it a partially true rating. Yes she did it (and other similar
acts), yes she was caught with weapons and hundreds of pounds of explosives,
BUT because there was no official DEFINITION of being a domestic terrorist at
the time, she wasn't convicted "as one" - even though she was
convicted and went to prison!
Btw, heard a good B Clinton campaign quote the other day
saying via paraphrase "Bush was a nice guy but he's been in the DC bubble
for so long he can't relate to the common person." Gee....who else
do we know that might fill that definition..............? It's 8 pm now,
probably time for his bedtime milk and cooies.
UNBELIEVABLE BUT TRUE!
On November 7, 1983 the M-19 Communist Organization
detonated a bomb in the US Senate in an attempt to kill Republicans.
Susan Rosenberg was arrested for this. She was
pardoned by Bill Clinton and is now an administrator for Black Lives
Matter.
It appears Bombing the US Capitol to kill Republicans is no
big deal.
But the LEFT said the so-called capital riot on January 6, 2021 was
the ‘worst day in American History’. Perhaps they simply don't know
"history" - or turn a blind eye.

And:
What does it matter if you lie to Congress when testifying before some committee. No one ever gets penalized except if they have a Trump connection.
If you are a FOP (friend of Pelosi) like Swalwell you can have sex with a Chinese spy, spend large amounts of campaign money on your own person, which is against the law, but there is no consequence. You still get to remain on a sensitive committee.
If, however, you are Rep. Jordan and think Pelosi is a jerk she will not let you be on a committee.
If you are a criminal and commit petty crimes you no longer pay a rice. You simply can walk out the store with your arms loaded.
There are more and more instances where the law is no longer enforced because liberals believe disorder is preferable to order. Burning down cities is acceptable. Disrupting traffic is acceptable. Attacking police has also now become acceptable. If you have a big name and are a radical leftie you can pretty much write your own ticket.
If you are connected to Trump rest assured you will be prosecuted and go to jail but if you commit the same type crime and run the FBI or any one of our National Security Agencies you can commit a host of crimes and never have to worry.
If you have a record of criminal behaviour and you name is Clinton the Monopoly Board is filled with Pass Go icons.

This past Sunday, Lynn suggested I take Blake, our grandson, to the Coastal Jazz Concert to listen to Cuban Jazz. Blake loves to dance and get's the beat. A beautiful young lady motioned would I let him dance with her and I said yes and the entire audience of 300 people started clapping etc..
I thanked her later for being so gracious and told her she had crushed my ego
Blake about a year ago at 6..

Israeli medical innovations
The Israelis do not make islands in the shape of palm trees, towering skyscrapers, expensive hotels, nor do their leaders use cars with massive silver bodies (allusion to Dubai and the United Arab Emirates).The pride of Israel is that its technologies will be able to be used by all humanity:
1. Tel Aviv University is developing a nasal vaccine that will protect people from Alzheimer's and stroke.
2. The Technion, Institute of Technology (Haifa), has developed a simple blood test capable of detecting different types of cancer.
3. The Ichlov Center (Tel Aviv) isolated a protein that makes colonoscopy unnecessary to detect colon cancer, with a simple blood test. Colon cancer kills about 500,000 people annually.
4. Acne doesn't kill, but does cause anxiety in teens. The Curlight Laboratory has created a cure. Emitting UV rays at high intensity, kills the bacteria that cause acne.
5. The Given Imaging Laboratory has developed a tiny camera in the form of swallowed pills and transmits thousands of photos of the digestive tract. These high-quality photos (2 per second for 8 hours) can detect polyps, cancers, and sources of bleeding. The photos are sent to a chip that stores them and sends them to a computer. At the end of the process, the chamber is eliminated via the rectum.
6. The Hebrew University (Jerusalem) developed an electrical neurostimulator (batteries) that is implanted in the chest of Parkinson's patients, similar to the pacemaker. The emissions from this device block the nerve signals that cause tremors.
7. The simple smell of a patient's breath can detect if a patient has lung cancer. The Russell Berrie Institute for Nanotechnology has created sensors capable of sensing and registering 42 biological markers that indicate the presence of lung cancer without the need for a biopsy.
8. Catheterization can be dispensed with in many cases. Endopat is a device placed between the indicator fingers, which can measure the state of the arteries and predict the possibility of a heart attack in the next 7 years.
9. The University of Bar Ilan studies a new drug that fights viruses through the bloodstream. It is called Vecoy Trap, as it tricks a virus into self-destruction. Very useful to combat hepatitis, and in the future Aids and Ebola.
10. Israeli scientists at Hadassah Medical Center (Jerusalem) may have discovered the first cure for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, known as Lou Gehring's disease, in an Orthodox rabbi. Stephen Hawking, a famous British scientist, suffered from this disease and used methods invented by Israeli scientists to communicate

Don't be critical of CRT. It is simply another Trojan Horse way of destroying America and a cop out to black radicals:
A Deeper Look at Critical Race Theory
The neo-Marxist movement rejects equal opportunity, merit and objectivity.
By William A. Galston
In last week’s column about critical race theory, I said that I had barely scratched the surface of this complex movement. To dig deeper, I turned to a collection of essays by the movement’s founders and early adherents—“Critical Race Theory: The Key Writings That Formed the Movement”—published in 1996. Here is what I found in the volume and in an article by Kimberlé Crenshaw, one of the book’s editors and one of the movement’s most insightful thinkers.
• Critical race theory denies the possibility of objectivity. As the volume’s editors state in their illuminating introduction, “Scholarship about race in America can never be written from a distance of detachment or with an attitude of objectivity. . . . Scholarship—the formal production, identification, and organization of what will be called ‘knowledge’—is inevitably political.” And politics is about power—specifically, about the struggle between those who seek to maintain oppressive hierarchies and those who seek to overturn them. Scholarship can be a powerful weapon in that struggle.
• The theory moves race to the center of our focus. As the editors put it, it aims to “recover and revitalize the radical tradition of race-consciousness,” a tradition “that was discarded when integration, assimilation and the ideal of colorblindness became the official norms of racial enlightenment.”
• The founders of Critical Race Theory identified with Black Power movements much more than with those who were working for integration. This form of race-consciousness can’t be reduced to class-consciousness. Sen. Bernie Sanders, who understood the fight for equality as a class struggle, learned this lesson the hard way during his quest for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.
• Critical race theory is an explicitly left-wing movement inspired by the thinking of an Italian neo-Marxist, Antonio Gramsci. Against classic Marxism, for which material conditions are primary, Gramsci (1891-1937) focused on “hegemony”—the system of beliefs that “reinforces existing social arrangements and convinces the dominated classes that the existing order is inevitable,” as Ms. Crenshaw puts it.
• The theory offers a fundamental critique of the civil-rights movement and the liberal ideology it reflects. Such theorists argue that the civil-rights movement scored some “symbolic” gains for black Americans but left their material conditions mostly unchanged, in part because civil-rights law is inherently limited. Such laws treat “discrimination” as isolated acts by specific individuals or businesses, as exceptions to prevailing norms and practices, not as pervasive and “systemic.” Civil-rights law can mitigate the consequences of illegal and unjust acts, but it can do nothing to redress the continuing impact of past oppression.
• Critical race theory rejects the principle of equality of opportunity. Its adherents insist that equality of opportunity is a myth, not a reality, in today’s America, and that those who pursue it are misguided. The real goal is equality of results, measured by black share of income, wealth and social standing. Critical race theorists reject the idea that sought-after goods should be distributed through systems that evaluate and reward “merit.”
This metric is unacceptable, the editors say, because certain “conceptions of merit function not as a neutral basis for distributing resources and opportunity, but rather as a repository of hidden, race-specific preferences for those who have the power to determine the meaning and consequences of ‘merit.’ ” These critics don’t specify which conceptions of merit, if any, they would find acceptable.
For those who reject meritocracy and demand equal results, even race-conscious policies such as affirmative action are diversionary. “The aim of affirmative action,” the book’s editors insist, is to “create enough exceptions to white privilege to make the mythology of equal opportunity seem at least plausible.” Such policies are an inadequate response to the persistence of “white supremacy.”
Following Gramsci’s lead, critical race theory has used mainstream concepts such as equality and inclusion to wage a highly effective war of position against liberal ideology. Some liberals have been co-opted, and others silenced. But now the debate has moved to states and school districts around the country, and many parents don’t like what they are seeing. Presenting an honest view of American history in public schools is one thing, parents say, but focusing the curriculum on the “1619 Project” is quite another. Hiring practices and workplaces should be fair and welcoming to all, employees say, but mandatory diversity training premised on the ubiquity of “unconscious racism” and “white fragility” is coercive and insulting.
Critical race theory’s popularizers have done the movement no favors. In his bestselling book, “How to Be an Anti-Racist,” Ibram X. Kendi bluntly asserts that “the only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” If prescriptions such as Mr. Kendi’s come to be seen as the inevitable consequence of critical race theory, the movement will end in failure.
