But they keep doing it anyway. Are you a straight shooter or are you a WHAT ABOUTER? Why?

Does the rainbow have to be in Ireland?

She had also been born at home, her birth was attended by a midwife, because once again, only rich (white folks) went to a doctor or heaven forbid, to a fancy hospital to have babies. Anyway, being a poor black family in the American south during the Jim Crow era, a girl child was not an important event to anyone beyond the immediate and/or extended family. Had literacy been prevalent in the family, her date of birth may have been recorded in the family's large Holy Bible along with all the marriages and deaths, but her whole life, she never knew nor did she ever find anything indicating the date. At some point in her life, she needed a birth date, any birth date, so in addition to asking older family members, she herself was partially responsible for coming up with one. It appears that someone helped her narrow down mon... less

How valuable is a mountain of good if it all based on lies? SIGH. It doesn't matter. People believe those they like/prefer and disbelieve those they dislike/have contempt for. Truth doesn't matter at all. People will keep alive what they believe to be true by whatever means necessary. Human nature. No one escapes its clutches. No one. Ever.

He was responsible for possibly preventing World War III. Isnt that a great thing? They said there will be an investigation to why this alarm of a missile attack was launched in the first place. False Flag by the deep state failed. Now whos the boss.

On Thursday, Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow doubled down on his view that Trump should not be allowed to address lawmakers in the historic Westminster Hall during an official visit to the United Kingdom. Trump has still not earned the right and does not deserve the honor, Bercow reportedly said at a Queen Mary University London event.
“An invitation to address both Houses of Parliament is not a bauble to be handed out by the prime minister of the day,” said Bercow, per the Press Association news agency. “It is not a government prerogative; that is a matter for the speakers of the two Houses.”
In February, Bercow vowed to block Trump from speaking before Parliament, an honor which was afforded to former President Barack Obama in 2011. An address by a foreign leader to Parliament was “not an automatic right&rd... less

So, here goes!I hope that instead of throwing her completely inexperienced hat into the ring, Oprah will use her massive wealth and influence to propel a qualified candidate to the forefront in 2020. I think Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams would be an excellent choice, or maybe Senator Cory Booker. I believe that most democrats understand that being a wealthy celebrity isn't a relevant qualification for president. less
