Natural Light: Rose Colored Glasses

These Pink Roses are so well protected by their natural defense I thought it presented a beautiful contrast between the beautiful and the grotesque. Nature at her best!

Illuminating American Politics: A bad week for the Right

As this week started the hypocrites on the Right seemed more exposed as ever as a mad dog movement of rabid hate filled dogs. Do not take my word for it. Look at their actions this week. Take the Right Wing Christian Zealots that were going to kill Policemen as they were the minions of the Anti-Christ. Couple that this week that 24% of Republicans feel the President is the Anti-Christ and you can see a recipe for some damn stupid behavior. Apparently though these do not read their own scripture as true Christians are supposed to be Raptured before any of that Anti-Christ, Armageddon stuff occurs! I guess they planned on missing the Train for the greater good. One scary fact about this arrest is that Right Wing hate groups if this type have risen drastically over the last year to a downright freaky 244%!

Next we had the GOP giving us the Sterling moral example of spending donors money at a West Hollywood S&M strip club that simulated bondage! Huh! These are the guys that are preaching some imagined Puritan morality. What a great way to show a country in economic stress that you get the message about excess and greed.
Further, as it is revealed that the passing of the Health Care Bill did not lead to Armageddon, Burning Skies or the releasing the Four Horses of the Apocalypse, no Black Helicopters flew to arrest people in the night. No UN Secret Police patrolled the streets of America to take us to the Socialist Indoctrination Camps. We did however see the opposite from these Whack Jobs on the Right. We saw an angry mob of white people screaming ugly, racial slurs at African-American Congressmen. One particularly hateful fellow spit in the face of one Congressmen. If you were it remove the color on the video and add a couple of dogs it would have been Selma Al circa 1963!
These is the leadership that America is looking for? So bizarre vision of the World applied through some type if Pretzel Logic that would have the Prince of Peace toting an Assault Rifle! Telling us you represent Christian moral values while you blow thousands at some Sado-Masochistic Nightclub and justify that as a fund raiser. Wow, quite a moral example one all of America should follow not doubt. Lastly what is the vision of hope and positive example the Right gives us. Where do they hope to lead the Country in the future. Fear and hate are not a recipe for success. As the saying goes lead follow or get out of the way! And absent any positive vision for America the Right should just get out of the way!

Natural Light: Rose Colored Glasses

A beautiful Rose to offer up what is beautiful and tranquil in the World as an offering to those who cannot see for the fear and hate in their eyes!

Spotlight On The Hateful Right

Well we have seen what the Tea-Baggers and the GOP represent and it is ugly. The Right Wing Nuts would take us back to days of fear, hatred, racial and civil intolerance. What a pretty picture the GOP and the Tea-Baggers paint of Democracy in action, if you don't get your way burn the house down, toss these haters out this November. This is not what it means to be an American. What happened to being able to win with the power of your ideas. When anyone resorts to violence, vandalism or hate speak they have already lost the argument. The rest of us Americans must resist the temptation to sink to their level. We must stick to the marketplace of ideas and continue to present a clear path to progress and Social Justice. This country has seen this kind of intolerance before and we must fight it with all out power with the weapon of words and debate not hate and fear. These people who call them selves Patriots are not what they claim to be if so they would present their ideas within the framework of this countries ideals of Democracy and Representative government. As we have seen where the Right would take us we know that is a path wrought with pain, suffering and misery this country does not need to revisit. All Republicans must be sent home this fall their ideas of hate, fear, bigotry and intolerance this country does not need. Vote this November against hate send a Republican home!

Illuminating American Politics: What is Going On With The Right

As the Right ran rampant and reckless from 2000-2008 the rest of America let them have their day in the Sun. As they ran the countries business with their hands off approach to all things from Foreign Affairs to Financial Regulation, America was of a mind to give them the benefit of the doubt. Now that their ideas have proven to be a disaster for the country and we seek new direction, the Right acts like twelve year old school yard bullies. The rise in hate groups in 2009 rose an astounding 244%, with the number of hate groups reaching 942 across the nation. What motivates this astonishing increase in hate speak? The the Right Wing talk show bullies like Beck and Limbaugh do not help, speaking hate and intolerance on a daily basis. The GOP politicians are a big contributor shouting out rude and uncivil insults during public debate. Shouting out things like "Baby Killer!" or "You Lie!" do not make for good public example. These Dim-witted lawmakers on the Right must know that their hate and intolerance will be magnified through the megaphone of the mob mentality that they encourage.
When lawmakers who are merely trying to do the right thing for the American people as a whole, they should not have bricks thrown through their windows! They should not be called Faggot, Baby Killer, Nigger, Communist or any name for that matter! Their families and homes should not be exposed and targeted by dim-witted bubble heads who are seeking to cash in. These people should know better and that people will take what they say as real and act upon their paranoid delusions. We are a better people than this and have lived through horrible times of intolerance, enough so that we should as a nation know better! So again I ask, what is wrong with the Right!

Light Haiku

Haiku to Civil American Discourse:
With Fear And Hatred We Shall Not Respond...
It Is Like Drinking From A Stagnant Pond!
It Is Un-American And We Are Not Fond!
Can we stop the hate speak it is not who we are as a people!
