It was innocuous enough I guess and other women might not take offense. I did.One day a Vice President told me "you look very pretty today". I told him that comment made me feel uncomfortable. He apologized. He never made me pay for it in any way. He was always very kind and polite and he didn't change in his demeanor toward me whatsoever. I wasn't comfy having my appearance discussed by a superior. Talk about my work. Fine. Not about anything personal. That's just me. I speak up so there is no doubt about how I feel or what I think. Do you? How long does it take for you to muster up the courage? less

Those who fear wish to silence that which they fear always and forever. What is it they fear EXACTLY? Could it be TRUTH that terrifies them so?

There is a script written by smarter others by which the responders guide their defensive offenses or offensive defenses. Uniform conformity is the ruse they use to confuse. No originality. No profound intelligence. Just read the dam* script verbatim is all that is required of them. The authors will not allow you to go off script. Only the bad do that. Now ya know. Mystery solved. SHEESH. Boring repetition. Are you a fan? less

Except the RIME is imagination. NOW isn't. Odd how prescient imagination can be almost two hundred years before it manifests itself in reality. Isn't it? less

That is the entire value purpose raison d'etre of supporting the Dondon. Lard the justice system with extreme right wingers so that "justice" will always skew to the extreme right-wing nationalists thereby destroying anything that speaks of good or honorable or ethical or just or fair or TRUE. None of that is important to any of them. They abhor all of it. Just keep them extreme right-wing "judges" larding the benches at every level. True Heaven on earth is what they seek and crushing all that is good and replacing it with all that isn't is what extreme right-wing nationalistic prodons seek, all they ever sought, all they live for. Isn't that sweet? less

He is the source of all that is true and real and good. According to him and he demands that same belief in all prodons. That is why he despises intelligence intellect questioning cogitating pondering wondering seeking asking. Simple. Uncomplicated. So simple even a 2-year-old can comprehend it. ME BOSS. YOU NOTHING. BOSS KNOW BEST. Sigh. less

But they lack retention thereof and thus therefore to whit they forget that they've heard those sameoldsameoldsameoldsameold words a zillion times before. Their memories are WIPED CLEAN and purely empty so that they are refreshed enthusiastic and joyful at every rally. Brand new! Just out of the box. New and improved. It is how they keep going and going and going and cheering and cheering and cheering and cheering. LOUSY MEMORIES are an advantage when you are a broken record that is stuck in the same groove. less
