KEYSTONE CRONIES
KEYSTONE CRONIESCross-endorsements between authoritarian cronies has become comical, and dangerous to We The People.
WELCOME TO THE ’50’s
WELCOME TO THE ’50’sThe next arrow in the quiver of patriarchal rhetoric may be to pull out the repulsive accusation that girls have cooties. The rhetoric will elevate the Trump Administration campaign policy platform.
PET SANCTUARY
PET SANCTUARY
A relevant local news presentation called “Around the Tiers” broadcast a story about dogs against domestic violence sanctuary, because the link between abuse of animals and people is becoming more understood.
WHENCE ALL THE PAGANS?
WHENCE ALL THE PAGANS?
-On one’s mind this morning before hearing of Maher’s “magical thinking” comment, seems too much of a coincidence to ignore.
STEPFORD WIVES
STEPFORD WIVES
As a child of the ’60’s and having apparently been a bit of a nird, one remembers the wrenching disappointment to become aware that the CIA was involved in the assassination of Patrice Lumumba who was a democratically-elected leader of the Congo.

WORKING FAMILIES
A local news outlet presented a Rep. Molinaro photo-op of a particularly relevant Cadosia Boat Launch in our Upstate NY region. One notices so many Rep. Molinaro populist events that surely add to the quality of life in our countryside. He touched on ability for youth to make use of such projects, and this seems particularly beneficial.

Drawing out an idea that would otherwise harm a long-time and successful shoe repair shop that is still in demand after 50 years, one wonders at the fatuous approach by our leaders.
SMALL BUSINESS SOLUTION
SMALL BUSINESS SOLUTIONS
A local TV news show was thoroughly vital. It also seems to be a story that comes with a solution.
FREE ENTERPRISE ISN’T CAPITALISM–Disappointment with Mayor Kraham originates with his prioritizing wealthy developers over the 50-year long business leaders in The Southern Tier who exhibited the true spirit of Free Enterprise rather than the Pyramid-Scheme tactics of hierarchical capitalism.
Without the sordid crutch of nepotism and cronyism that has become the wallpaper of local politics, true business leaders launched honorable careers in the face of the wind of corruption and self-interest. Add to this that business leaders launched said careers perhaps before the birth of Mayor Kraham simply adds to the distaste for a roiling ol’ boy network.
CLIMATE CHANGE DENIAL
CLIMATE CHANGE DENIAL–Governmental response to the reality of Climate Change has been wholly chaotic and nonsensical. Policy can be discussed, the FACT of devastation caused by weather-pattern changes cannot be denied.
THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS
THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS
Showing up to sooth the masses seem like a good idea for politicians; the fly in the ointment is suspicious photo ops devoid of explanation of dictatorial presumption.
DYNASTY NATION
Colonialism is an act of justification to avoid criminal recognition, often viewed as genocide. Colonization is the euphemism to soften reality that otherwise would be criminal behavior. Oligarchs are the architects of the activation of colonization to their own benefit, power, a gluttony.
CHEVRON AND MOTHER GORSUCH
CHEVRON AND MOTHER GORSUCH
Climate Change caused by industry seems generally ubiquitously accepted as FACT. Also generally ubiquitously accepted as FACT is the corruption in our Supreme Court.
IS THE USA STILL A COLONY?
As one not personally interested in the Bowman/Latimer primary in NYS, one takes exception as a matter of principle on the Israeli continuing influence on the politics of the USA. AIPAC is said to have heavily financed the Latimer campaign, apparently as a challenge to the Bowman support for Palestinians.
MONICA, HILLARY, AND AILEEN
MONICA, HILLARY, AND AILEEN
One is pleased that Monica Lewinsky is speaking out. A method to maintain patriarchal control is shaming when patriarchy is too corrupt and unprincipled to feel shame that they own. But again, Aileen Cannon is a hapless and immature example of treatment by Trump that is metaphorically similar to that of Ms. Lewinsky by Clinton.
