Today’s Thoughts
Today is going well. It’s warm and the
monsoon should arrive later this afternoon.
Senator Melendez (D-NJ) has been found
guilty of 16 felony counts including bribery, obstruction of justice and acting
as a foreign agent. Many Dems immediately demanded that he resign from the Senate
and if he didn’t, they would be sure he was expelled.
Politics is dirty. Campaigns are
dirty. I have always heard that ‘my opponent will’ do something that will
basically destroy the US. Over the years these remarks have been about policy
decisions. Over the past few election cycles, these remarks have changed to
personal attacks on the candidate. I didn’t like it when it started and I don’t
like it as it has escalated. I’m now seeing this is ‘just politics’. During the
Republican Primary, all the candidates disparaged Trump with a thesaurus of
personal attacks, and he returned them with vigor. Now that Trump has the nomination,
all his rivals, except for Christie, have returned to the campaign trail to
praise Trump as the chosen leader. I do not see any of them as ‘leaders’. They
attacked the Alpha, they lost to the Alpha, and now they have their tail
between their legs, begging for a tidbit of recognition from the Alpha.

“Close, But No Cigar”
This once-popular phrase means nearly achieving a goal but
ultimately falling short. It’s said to originate from carnival games where
cigars were given as prizes for near successes. The saying was commonly used as
a lighthearted acknowledgment of effort and near success.
False Facts about religions
Sharia Law Is a
Single Set of Laws
Rather than a single set of rules, like the Ten Commandments, Sharia is a
combination of a broad set of principles gathered from the Quran and Hadiths.
Its interpretations are varied by scholastic schools of thought. Shariah also
covers matters of morality, not just legality.
