Fine name for a post....and it kind of suits. This is a multidemantional kind of post....
Starting with Chemo #5.
Yeah. Sorry, but even with the proper chemicals, it's still no fun. Nausea, diahhrea, itchiness, mild headache....but, happily, I'm one of the lucky ones! I only go two to three days of it at the end of each cycle instead of having to go into the hospital once a month!
And what is going on in the White House?
I've never heard of ANY President getting away with ANY of the things he's done in so short a time - and the REPUBLICANS LET HIM GET AWAY WITH IT! Not only are they letting him bring up all kinds of brick-a-brack about his opponent (who WON the popular vote, but lost the Electoral College) despite the fact that the "emails from Russia" she was accused of disappeared without a trace as soon as he won, but they let him get away with unsubstantiated Tweets from his CELL PHONE. (Wasn't that part of the "Hillary Used Her Own Phone For Emails" thing that supposedly was such a no-no? Shouldn't the President be able to give up his Tweets for the four years?)
I just don't understand that EVERYTHING that was "no-no" for a Democrat is "well done" for a Republican.
Speaking of, do any of you realize that our two opposing forces in the House and Senate have changed their names to oppose/support whatever it is that we, the People of the United States, would wish?
For instance, we started off as Whigs and Tories, according to the Revolutionary War. The Whigs were against English rule and the Tories were for staying with Britain. (Several of the Tories packed up and moved to what is now Canada when the British fell.)
Next was the U.S. Federalist Party (Pro-Administrative Party) which supported the Constitution, and the Anti-Federalist Party (Anti-Administrative Party), which opposed the Constitution. When the Constitution was admitted and we had a President, the Federalist Party was opposed to the Democratic Republican Party (formerly the Anti-Federalist Party).
Confused yet? We haven't even started!
During the 1830's, the Vice President, John Calhoun, had a break with President Andrew Jackson - and let me tell you, everything got difficult. Calhoun started running a group called the Nullifiers, who joined with the National Republican party and formed the US Whigs in 1834. Jackson had his own set of people, the Jacksonians, who became the Democrats by 1834. (And we think we have a coup de grace NOW? At least the VP hasn't tried to take over - yet....)
The Republicans (mostly the non-slave owners of the north) and the Democrats (the slave owners from the south) were joined by the Freedman (freed slaves who joined the north) while white southerners (Redeemers) joined the Democrats. We've continued to use those two parties, but somewhere around 1930's, the demographics in the parties changed.
When Franklin D. Roosevelt was President, when the New Deal was introduced, the Democrats became very Liberal, accepting that people are people and things are things. The Republicans were split between a conservative wing, led by Senator Taft, and a moderate wing led by the Rockefellers and their ilk. The more popular moderate wing died out somewhere around 1964, and there's some debate as to whether or not there is another "generation" or whether we've just continued on.
You know the one thing I found out when researching this?
The Constitution called for a Senate and a House of Representatives, and it goes well into their duties, but it doesn't dictate what to do with a daft President short of Impeachment and it doesn't call for there only being two parties to choose from. Along with the Green Party candidates and the Independent candidates who've been making themselves more and more prominent, it DOESN'T limit you to a process in which you have a Democrat and a Republican duking it out on a public stage UNLESS YOU WANT IT TO!
I do feel the need to "Drain The Swamp" and get rid of the politicians who are more concerned with their bank accounts than what their constituents - and the WORLD - need them to accomplish, but it seems we HAVE to listen to "The Government".
But what if The Government has their heads so far up their own self-righteous butts to listen to We The People? What do we do to re-create all of the above to either get the Democrats and the Republicans to listen to the Independence and the Green Party, whose candidates are MUCH more in league with the People and are as eager to get the millionaires and billionaires OUT of The Government?
I think people should stop listening to the Cheeto Burrito and his Cabinet of Scum and start looking around for the people who LISTEN.
I think we should tell all of Washington that We The People want The House and The Senate to stop looking for the next billion and start looking at the People - and the fact that, while the 1% may rule Washington today, We The People want what was promised: TO DRAIN THE SWAMP!
I think We The People should REMIND the people who represent us in Washington that WE RULE AND THEY DROOL!
