Trump’s Election Proves There Is No God, Nor Has There Ever Been

If you believe God turned a blind eye to the massacre of young children at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. or Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, but initially saved Donald Trump from an assassination, then you have a God who doesn’t love, but hates and wants people to suffer more. And nowContinue reading “Trump’s Election Proves There Is No God, Nor Has There Ever Been”

Hank Hill Wouldn’t Support Trump I Tell You What, As That Man Ain’t Right

When King of the Hill premiered in January 1997, Bill Clinton was about to be sworn in for a second time as President of the United States. The show made some jokes about Clinton, with Hank Hill locking his truck doors, when he sees he’s entered Hope, Ark., the former President’s birthplace. However, I don’tContinue reading “Hank Hill Wouldn’t Support Trump I Tell You What, As That Man Ain’t Right”

Will This Nightmare Be Over Or Is It Just Beginning?

At this point, there’s absolutely nothing Donald Trump can say to make people deter their decisions. Just this past week, he said he wanted Liz Cheney to face a firing squad, made sexually suggestive gestures and movements on a microphone and called the workers behind the stage “stupid” repeatedly. This would be the type ofContinue reading “Will This Nightmare Be Over Or Is It Just Beginning?”

Fake It Till You Make It

I’ve never had to work in the food service industry. I have had to clean up shit that was on the floor. And it wasn’t mine. It was human excrement. The summer of 1998 I got a job bagging groceries at the Piggly Wiggly in my hometown of Calhoun, Ga. Now, this town produced someContinue reading “Fake It Till You Make It”

Misinformation Station, How Do You Ration?

Ok, the headline above does exactly rhyme but you know what? It doesn’t matter because I saw it’s so. (I mean, I’m from the South. You ought to hear what we’ve done to the English language. And yet they get mad about people speaking Spanish.) That’s basically how things have been for well over 20Continue reading “Misinformation Station, How Do You Ration?”

Happy Birthday, President Carter

One of my favorite stories of President Jimmy Carter is when I was having to go cover a press conference at Georgia Southwestern State University. It was one of those nice Spring afternoons and I was glancing out the window because you don’t want to be inside when I heard the doors open and IContinue reading “Happy Birthday, President Carter”

Please Help Hurricane Relief If You Can

As the last remnants of Hurricane Helene dissipate, I can consider myself lucky. Not lucky that I’m about a good 1,000 miles from the major damage, but lucky I’m not on the road right now because a friend or family member was seriously hurt or died. As of this posting, CNN is reporting there areContinue reading “Please Help Hurricane Relief If You Can”

Telling Lies In America

I’ll admit it. I believe there could be some psychopaths so extreme on the conservative right spectrum they would believe killing Donald Trump would be better for America. But also, the right has spread so much about hoaxes and crisis actors, why should we be expected to believe them when something real happens to oneContinue reading “Telling Lies In America”

Please Remember Those Who Died On This Date Back In 2001

It’s hard to believe but it’s been 23 years since the 9/11 attacks on America. I had just graduated from college the prior spring. College graduates this year weren’t even alive on that date. However, I do hope they are all registered voters. I don’t mean to get too political, but the attacks were politicallyContinue reading “Please Remember Those Who Died On This Date Back In 2001”
