Don't give up on hope. A faux list of causes of death in 2016 has a Snopes entry. Snopes quibbles on the figures, but largely validates them. It fails to mention that Donald Trump will kill us all, which is unusual for Snopes. In California, a doctor may be slowed, so a patient dies, waiting to be certain of their personal pronoun. But that doctor will still respect the patient. 84 year old Democrat Dianne Feinstein is running again for another term in office. Were she to sleep through all legislative debates, she would not contribute less than she does now. Bill Clinton is upset with his Doormat for titling her latest book "What happened." Apparently Bill is concerned it sounds like the punchline for a joke. But Hillary wanted it to scream punchline. It has her voice, not his.
Julie Bishop helped promote a myth that women dislike and would not vote for Tony Abbott. But it should be concerning that feminists promoted a doormat to lead the Presidential race for US Democrats and also forgave a Miramax chief for serially abusing women. The French sidestepped one charmer. Abbott gave a magnificent London address and abusers prove him right by failing to address issues.
Yesterday I wrote how the Sunni/Shia schism began with an unfair fight. Today I look at the anniversary of the death in battle of Zwingli in 1531. Zwingli was a humanist who opposed church abuses, but condoned some as well. Zwingli fought for reason, and gave sermons from the Bible, rather than from church orthodoxy. He hadn't approved of anabaptist vehemence and did not speak out as one leader was executed by drowning for not baptising children, but adults. Zwingli saw himself as a soldier of Christ, and he died fighting in an unfair battle when he could not mobilise troops in time to defend his city of Zurich. Zwingli's right thinking humanism meant that Lutheranism divided Protestantism from Zwingli's theology, forever dividing Protestantism.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

The useful idiot that is RINO Romney is wrong about the mother of our child, USA. She is not virginal. When the patriot Ashli Babbitt was killed during a largely peaceful demonstration at the Capitol, she was not killed because President Trump incited violence or lied about election fraud. She was there because she was standing up for an opportunity the founding fathers promised was her free right. And she was killed because a Cabal has stolen the 2020 election and Georgia senate run offs and that Cabal desperately needs to protect itself. And by killing her, the Cabal has prevented President Trump from presenting his case before the legislature, as he had been allowed by constitution. Biden is now President Elect. But Biden did not get the votes he claims, and will not have the support such a turnout would endow.
The awful situation of President Elect Biden for USA, with senate in tow, cannot be understated. Just as with 911, terrorists around the world are cheering. It is trite to say there will be no justice, as there has been ...
