Wishes, Hopes, Dreams and Fits of Despair



Kellyanne Conway stated in an interview today with Phillip Bump of the Washington Post that “One wonders how different the political climate would be if consultants and pundits were put under oath before making comments.” This is a profound statement. I read this statement while reading Bump’s article, Donald Trump just off-handedly accused Ted Cruz of a federal crime, and it struck me as a statement is meant to be heard.  

God is the one who used to keep the oath of man while in court, but now, there is no binding oath to God since He is not allowed in the government anymore. So, I am not sure the answers would be different. After all, if they are not bound by an oath on the Bible, then what are they bound by? What makes her think DT would be any more respectful if he was bound.

I am not sure how many times Donald Trump can get away with throwing a tantrum and America allow him to do so. He is derogatory toward women, Muslims, and anyone who does not agree with him, yet we allow him to stay in the race and keep winning. After the violence against protestors, the literal telling that he would pay for their court fees at one such rally, after the degradation of millions of people, you would think America would draw the line. (After all, women are more numerous than men.)

Hillary Clinton may not have been ever charged with a crime, yet she is criminal in her dealings with America and the people that have been in her past. The women that her husband was accused of having sex with never came forward past the accusations. No one has been doing any follow-ups, but rumors have been circulating that they were paid off. AND Benghazi is a subject that should have stopped her progression in the race, but here she is.

Bernie Sanders is a Socialist that will give our country away, but at least, he is honest about it. He is one of the honest few that are part of the governmental establishment. Or, at least as honest as they know how to be.

Ted Cruz is a politician and they are what we are trying to replace. He is the prime choice for the Republican National Convention, yet he is not the frontrunner. 

The RNC has sent me a survey wanting to know how they can get back to the party they used to be. I answered the questions they gave me, but the problem is, they did not ask the proper questions.

I would love to have prayer in school (their question), yet what prayer would be the question (my question). I say all prayer. If there is a person that prays more than one time a day, then all of the children should get the opportunity to pray or not at the same times. This is a compromise that could be reached, yet we have no prayer instead. Just make sure that only groups have led prayers, no group led prayers. No one will pray if they do not want to. Anyone not wanting to pray should be given a break, be respectful of others and sit quietly while prayers are said. What would be wrong with this solution????

I think we like to make things complicated when we want others to think like us, rather than the compromise necessary for peace. Compromise is something that takes away from our purpose and gives purpose to others. We do not like to give into another’s wants when we have wants of our own. If we do, we consider ourselves weak. Is this true?

I firmly believe that we can gain more when we are willing to compromise and willing to give to others. I really wish others would do what they wanted someone to do for them. Maybe everyone would be willing to give. Now, that would be a great thing
