The Entire Universe

Thousands of years ago, an invading alien race threatened the oblivious planet Earth. This technologically-advanced race plans to use the Earth's resources to the point of destruction in order to propagate their species. They send a scouting party which is made up of the alien race's greatest warriors. However, before their plan can be completed, the leader of this team happens upon a traveling musician on the beach who opens her eyes to the value of human life, and life in general. After a legendary battle, the leader of the alien away team and two of her followers claim victory for Earth and all who inhabit it, but it comes at a huge cost. They are banished from their homeworld, never to return.

Sounds a bit epic to be a child's comedy show, but some of the other over-arching themes of Steven Universe are even more complex than the fantastic overture of the main story itself, and a strong Pro-Life theme is inextricably woven throughout, manifesting in three separate stories of a resoundingly life-affirming nature. 

First, there is the case of the titular character himself. Steven is a hybrid life form, derived from the struggling musician Greg Universe, his father, and Rose Quartz, the leader of the rebel Crystal Gems. By their nature, the alien race of crystal gems don't necessarily reproduce in the traditional sense. They can fuse to form a new gem with another gem (or in some cases, another living entity), but they cannot reproduce per se. Therefore, after Greg Universe and Rose Quartz were married and she became pregnant with Steven, she knew that his new life would mean hers coming to an end. Rather than fight this inevitability, she chose to lovingly embrace Steven's nascent life, leaving video messages for someone of whom she would technically be a part, but that she came to view as her son. This bond shared between Rose and Steven is touched on numerous times in the show, and broaches the subject of a mother's life lost in childbirth in the most tender and bittersweet of ways. It illustrates so vividly the beauty of a mother's sacrifice to give her most precious gift to the world, while showing how a departed parent lives on in the exuberant new life of their offspring. Steven is often told by those who were close to his mother how much he looks, sounds, and acts like Rose. The love and strength that Rose shared with those around her will ever persist ever after in the heart of Steven. The sadness at the loss of Rose Quartz will never be required to be endured completely, because she will never really be gone.

Another important point touched on in the show is the respect and reverence a relationship which creates new life deserves. One of the main characters is a gem named Garnet. She is a fusion gem. Two gems share a relationship so strong, they have ceased to be individuals and created an entirely new being, larger than themselves. She is a perfect allegory for a strong, deep, meaningful relationship between two people who then come together to produce new life. The two initial gems who come together to make her even cease to be themselves, which if you're doing things correctly, should be the case when two adults are mature enough to become intimate with one another, even before any children might be produced. A healthy relationship changes a person, due to the give-and-take nature inherent in a properly functioning love. If one truly cares about their partner, the love is selfless, and recognizes that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. These changes serve a greater purpose than just perpetuating the health of the relationship itself. They prepare an adult to accommodate the new life of their child, which is the freshly created living symbol of everything their beautiful relationship has come to be. 

Of course, not every child is brought into the world under such optimal circumstances, and the final Pro-Life paragon featured in Steven Universe is a perfect example of such a scenario. Amethyst was not an original member of the scouting team sent to begin overtaking the Earth. Amethyst was actually created on Earth, as the realization of the dastardly plan that the Homeworld Gems had envisioned for the Earth. They had planned on utilizing all of the mineral resources of the Earth to create new gems, causing the Earth's eventual destruction. Amethyst was one of the first of these, brought to fruition on the planet in a place called "The Kindergarten". She eventually decided to break away from the evil plans of the Homeworld Gems, and joined Rose Quartz, Garnet, and Pearl, but the circumstances under which she came to exist were beyond a doubt tragic and unfair not only to those living upon the Earth, but eventually to Amethyst herself. Given that the rest of the gems fought so fiercely to protect the Earth, it hurts Amethyst deeply to know that her entire existence is owed to the destruction of a small portion of it. She eventually lashes out at Pearl, one of the Crystal Gems most devoted to Rose Quartz and therefore the protection of Earth. Amethyst calls herself a mistake, and takes the hurt she feels about her existence out on Pearl through combat. Eventually, Steven intercedes and convinces Pearl to speak with Amethyst. Pearl explains that Amethyst was something beautiful and great that came out of something terrible. The dialogue from the episode "On The Run" is so poignant and touching, it could almost be reproduced verbatim as applying to cinema about a situation as complex as a child being conceived as a consequence of rape. It's beyond a doubt one of the most powerful and moving moments of the series.

Pro-Life theater and cinema is where you find it, and don't be fooled-sometimes the most intricate and stirring Pro-Life messages can be found in something as simple as a child's cartoon.

What Drives My Passion

This is my daughter, Magdalena.



Doesn't she look adorable? Isn't she amazing? And that's just an example of her visual energy and beauty. That doesn't show you how she amazes me every single day with the things she says and does. Simply stunning.

About Maggie: we weren't quite ready for her to...umm...pop up like she did. It was saddening, and kind of terrifying, and her father was totally overcome by grief, to say the least. I had a budding career that I really enjoyed, and it certainly wasn't any sort of occupation for a pregnant woman. Not to mention I was staying with relatives at the time, and if they had found out about it, I most likely wouldn't have been welcome there any longer.

There was an alternative. One that many women in similar situations as mine have taken countless times. One that I was forced to think about alot by my child's father. Abortion. But I couldn't. I knew that what was inside me was another person, and a person who depended on me to keep her safe and well. I knew somehow that she was going to be a girl. I knew she was my little girl, and any thoughts of harming her pained me a great deal. Even when her father was threatening to kill himself if I didn't abort her, I couldn't do it.

So now, I'm rewarded every day by this incredible little person that I have made. We love her more than anything else in our lives, and we really treasure her, and wouldn't trade her for anything in this world.

But when I think of what she could've been...



it makes me sick. That could've been my vibrant little girl I showed you earlier. And, like it or not, every baby in that condition that's thrown into a wastebasket somewhere would've turned into a wonderful little child like mine.

I wish the world could have this:


instead of this:

And that's why I'm anti-abortion.

Interview With An Abortionist

I was going to take screen shots and post them up, but as the conversation has worn on, that's just not a viable option at this point. I've copy/pasted everything you see here from a conversation I had with an abortionist on my Facebook messenger. Keep up the good fight, friends! We're winning!!

Conversation started Friday

1.) "fetus" is not a different species, but only a stage of development through which a human organism/human being goes.
2.) Consciousness and awareness are irrelevant to what an organism is or who they are.
3.) "...a fetus starts at fertilization..." Wrong. Are you sure you didn't sleep through school? After fertilization occurs, a blastocyst is created, which is *still* a new human organism. This is during the embryonic stage. A human being doesn't reach the fetal stage of development until around 9 weeks gestation. However, at EVERY point in development, a human organism remains a human organism. Being a human doesn't start at birth. At no point in our development do we change species.
4.) "I help women protect themselves..." How exactly do you do that? When I was pregnant by my abusive partner who was trying to get me to abort our daughter, how exactly would you helping to scrape me out so he could go right back to raping me every day "protect" me? Not to mention how would being killed in utero "protect" my now 11 year old daughter, who is a young woman herself? Oh, and speaking of my now 11 year old daughter...
5.) "...and I help keep unwanted babies from being born." By killing them. How nice of you. However, everyone who is conceived is born, you just help prevent them from being born alive. They're still born dead. You're not doing them any favors. If you doubt me, feel free to ask my now 11 year old daughter who was "unwanted" at the time of her conception how she feels about the prospect of having been denied her life by me or her father simply because we weren't ready to have her when she was conceived.
6.) I'm sorry you feel as though depriving others-very young children, I might add-of their lives is "doing the right thing." You're depraved.
7.) "I am helping women safely remove a mistake." Other people-our children, once again, to be precise-are not "mistakes" to be "removed".
8.) I look forward to hearing back from you. Perhaps you can have a conversation with one of these "unwanted babies" you look down upon and help kill for a living.

Call me a murderer if it makes you feel good. I love my life.
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:16pm
Linda Flowers
I don't think I called you a murderer, did I?  Abortion is legal,  So by definition you are not.  However,  by definition,  you are homicidal.
And for the record,  if you gave them the chance instead of killing them,  the children you execute would love THEIR lives,  too.  My daughter loves hers.
But I don't expect a sociopath to empathize with others.  It's beyond their capacity to try and think of the welfare of others.  Even children.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:21pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Wow, so now I execute??
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:23pm
Linda Flowers
Execute: 2.
carry out a sentence of death on (a legally condemned person).
abortion is legal, and has turned our own mothers into judge and jury, so that makes you the executioner.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:26pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Then so be it I am an executioner. I've head a mother change her mind during the procedure and attack me so
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:27pm
Linda Flowers
But this isn't all about you.  As you might have noticed,  what I emphasize in my Pro-life activism is the reason I joined the movement in the first place.  The life of my daughter,  Which should have been protected by law at every age and stage of development.  No matter  what I would have preferred,  No matter what would have benefited me.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:28pm
Anne-Marie Morin
so the fact that this woman attacked me is okay?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:30pm
Linda Flowers
Well, she WAS trying to protect the life of her child, who you were trying to kill.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:31pm
Anne-Marie Morin
she had asked me!!!  They she took the tools I uses and started to attack me!?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:33pm
Linda Flowers
So?  If someone asked you to shoot their toddler in the face,  Would you do it? And don't you think them asking you to do so would be indicative of a severe mental problem?
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:34pm
Anne-Marie Morin
so it gives her the right to use my equipment to attack me???
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:37pm
Linda Flowers
Yeah.  She was trying to save her child from you.  As a matter of fact,  I would love to see you press charges on that attack and have it go to trial with the defense of her child's life as her defense.  How old is the kid you tried to kill now?  Or were you ultimately successful?
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:38pm
Anne-Marie Morin
no I was not sucessfull....he is 12 months...I will admit that she got me down and started to use the equipment I use....felt premeditated to me
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:39pm
Linda Flowers
I'm an atheist,  So you won't be getting any "love the sinner"- type b.s. from me.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:39pm
Anne-Marie Morin
so the fact that she broke my ankle, three of my toes and 4 fingers is fine?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:40pm
Linda Flowers
Good.  Like I said,  press charges.  Take it to trial.  I dare you.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:40pm
Anne-Marie Morin
you know I won't
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:40pm
Linda Flowers
You got out of it a lot easier than her kid would have if you'd been successful.
Yeah,  I know you won't.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:41pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Linda, she used the clamps I use to crushed and pulled my fingers until they snapped....and she did that to my toes too....trust me...it was not easy
I was off work for 4 months
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:43pm
Linda Flowers
HAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA!  Awesome!  Too bad you weren't out of work longer.  Think about all the kids who met their end between those clamps.  Good on her! You just made my day,  lady!
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:44pm
Anne-Marie Morin
what does having those babies being killed by those clamps have to do with it??
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:45pm
Linda Flowers
Justice.  I'm glad you got to feel a fraction of what you do to children for a living.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:46pm
Anne-Marie Morin
wow
and had she killed me?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:48pm
Linda Flowers
I'm seriously disgusted by you.  I despise you.  You would have gladly taken money from me at my darkest hour to end the life of my child who sits before me happily watching cartoons and weaving crafts, and you seem proud to do so.  I could vomit right now, truly.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:49pm
Anne-Marie Morin
of course I would have.....it's money!!
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:50pm
Linda Flowers
It apparently wasn't necessary to kill you to protect her child,  So no, I would not support such actions.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:50pm
Anne-Marie Morin
and i would have done so with respect to your body
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:50pm
Linda Flowers
But mostly for my money.  Lol
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:50pm
Anne-Marie Morin
so she cripples me??? now I walk with a permanant limp
I would have taken your fetus out with respect for YOUR body not your money
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:52pm
Linda Flowers
I'm not stupid.  I know it's all about the money.  My mom used to work for an Ob/Gyn who did abortions.  She kept his books.  Big money.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:52pm
Anne-Marie Morin
and at the end you would have paid me and thanked me
Its true, I am very well off
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:54pm
Linda Flowers
That is SO irrelevant,  because you can talk about "respect" and "fetuses" all you want, but I'm looking at a young lady right now who would have been killed for your payday, and that is absolutely repugnant.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:55pm
Anne-Marie Morin
why, it would have gotten me a new pair of boots or something
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:56pm
Linda Flowers
Oh,  you're trolling now.  So much for constructive dialogue.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:56pm
Anne-Marie Morin
And I'll admit when the mother started to argue, I tried to continue
You are right about the boot comment, i am sorry
Linda Flowers
12/27, 9:58pm
Linda Flowers
I doubt it.  I doubt you're capable of feeling sorry for anything.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 9:59pm
Anne-Marie Morin
No it was uncalled for, I acknolwedge that.....and I am being honest with you...I did try to continue when she started to panic
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:00pm
Linda Flowers
And you don't think about the child who you tried to kill who is alive right now and regret that you tried to kill him/her?  No remorse whatsoever?
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:01pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Honestly.....no
I won't lie to you
I regret letting her grab the clamps from me
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:03pm
Linda Flowers
Okay. You're a sociopath,  And you need to be put away somewhere with white coats.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:04pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Its a job Linda....would I wish pain on a living child?  Never!!!  But that day a much smaller and younger mother turned the tables on me
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:05pm
Linda Flowers
I doubt your whole story,  though.  Unless you're a nurse practitioner in California,  what you claim to do would be illegal.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:05pm
Anne-Marie Morin
No...I am in Canada....what part do you mean?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:06pm
Linda Flowers
But they are ALL living children, pain is irrelevant,  because dead is dead, whether or not it hurts when someone kills you.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:07pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Ohhh I see what you mean....I mean once the child is born, he/she must be protected at all cost
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:10pm
Linda Flowers
Why? If before that point, you don't give a shit about them,  Why bother caring at all?  They are the same organism before AND after birth.  Just older/larger/more developed.  Why care about them ever, at all, if you're killing them when they're younger?
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:10pm
Anne-Marie Morin
They are not born....they are not children....they are fetuses
Would you like to know how many abortions I have performed in my career so far?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:14pm
Linda Flowers
But they ARE children, by definition.  The children I have right now are the same organisms they have ALWAYS been.  There was never some magical pixie dust moment when they were switched out for "actual children"
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:15pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Thats were we disagree....You would act very differently if I should up and looked at your kids now that if I did when you were pregnant

No,  that's not just where we disagree,  it's where you're wrong.  See the above definitions.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:17pm
Anne-Marie Morin
IF it is true that we agree that no one shoud ever hurt anyone else....why is okay that the mother did that to me?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:17pm
Linda Flowers
Because you were trying to kill someone,  And she had to stop you.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:18pm
Anne-Marie Morin
But I was just doing my job!
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:19pm
Linda Flowers
Get a job that doesn't involve killing children,  then?
http://www.attwn.org/
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:20pm
Anne-Marie Morin
But in that case, that was my job...and she overpowered me, beat me and did those things with the clamp
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:21pm
Linda Flowers
"I was just doing my job." Has been the failed excuse of the unjust for centuries.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:21pm
Anne-Marie Morin
Perhaps, but she beat me and toutured me!!!
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:22pm
Linda Flowers
Nobody put a gun to your head and made you continue to try and kill her child after she asked you to stop.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:23pm
Anne-Marie Morin
thats true....the law says that when I start the procedure I need to end it.....and its true that I wanted to,,,,
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:34pm
Anne-Marie Morin
You there?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:36pm
Linda Flowers
Yeah. What do you want me to say? Congrats, you kill children for a living, but want me to boo-hoo over your poor little ankle and your poor little fingers? Sorry. I'm done with you now.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:36pm
Anne-Marie Morin
why?  i thought we could discuss?
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:37pm
Linda Flowers
Well, what else is there to discuss?
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:37pm
Anne-Marie Morin
How with what you say you believe, her doig that to me was fair
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:38pm

I fight for the right to live of children like my daughter. You fight for your ability to kill children like her for money. We're done here.

Okay...I happen to be the patron saint of schadenfreude. You're looking for sympathy from the wrong person.
Every cancellation notice is a child who gets to keep on living.
And that. Is. WONDERFUL.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:49pm
Anne-Marie Morin
ANd the income i lose?  The career I worked so hard on?
and why send it to me!?!!
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:51pm
Linda Flowers
Because, maybe they think there is still a human being inside you, and one day, you'll look at one of those cancellation notices, and realize that that is another human being that gets to live because they got away from you, and perhaps you will be as horrified as they are that you were going to kill that child.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:51pm

thats not what I feel when I see that though!?

and for me????
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:53pm
Linda Flowers
It's sad that you can't be happy for them. It's sad that you can't look at those living children and be happy for them.
The world does not revolve around you. I learned that as a child, growing up poor as the oldest of 6 children in my family.
Linda Flowers
12/27, 10:54pm
Linda Flowers
So, when I was poor, homeless, abused, and wound up pregnant which meant I would have to quit my job in order to protect the child I was carrying, I realized that I would just have to find a way to make due, because the world doesn't revolve around me, and killing is not a solution to a problem.
Anne-Marie Morin
12/27, 10:54pm

I do work tomorrow so I'll call it a night,,,,,I do appreciate your honesty

Linda Flowers
6:34pm
Linda Flowers
Well, that's better than 5.
You do realize that these children of women in crisis grow up eventually, right? And once they know the circumstances of their conception, they're pretty vehemently against abortion (usually)...
Linda Flowers
6:37pm
Linda Flowers
I mean, it was a hard conversation to have with my daughter, to tell her what her father had wanted me to do to her, and how crappy my life was back then. But once she found out, she's been telling all her classmates about abortion and what it is and what it does, and how terrible it is, and that's not anything I've encouraged her to do, that's just her taking a stand for a situation that's affected her personally in the past.

Your livelihood isn't going to last with kids like that in the world. They won't allow it.

I just don't understand someone who would want to use their education and talents to harm rather than heal.

I heal the mothers. Don't forever that.

No, killing a mother's child isn't "healing" her.

It is if that fetus is not wanted.

Just because a child is unwanted by his/her parent(s) at a certain point in their lives doesn't mean the child will ALWAYS be so. But they'll never know how much they could have grown to love that child, because you take that opportunity away from them. That's hurtful.

What *DO* They Mean By "Choice"?

They're so fond of euphemisms, aren't they?! The sheer amount of rationalization-OBVIOUS rationalization-from their side actually rather concerns me, oftentimes. If a person can apply this level of carelessness and sometimes even animosity to a truly neutral, completely innocent child, it makes me wonder what they're capable of when applying their rationalization techniques to others. You know-people who cut them off in traffic. People who take the last doughnut when they reeeaaally reeeaaally wanted one. Kinda makes me ponder why most of them tend to want strict gun control enforced. I imagine if they're capable of killing their own children, they probably wouldn't mix well with guns and a bunch of targets with axes to be ground. Unfortunately they don't realize that not everyone views killing as a legitimate course of action.

Coming from such a large family as I do, with the background in Biology that I have, it's hard to fathom that ANYONE can attempt to champion killing children and then trying to pawn it off as "justice", but that is exactly what these people do. A more deluded group I've never seen. Self-soothers engaging in newspeak rationalization with their logical gymnastics and verbal binkies and blankies.

"not a child"
"terminating a pregnancy"
"not killing"
"choice"
"autonomy"
"saved my life"
"not actual people"
"my body"
"lump of cells"
"non-living tissue"
"reproductive healthcare"
"justice"

They close their eyes to the biological reality I've dedicated a good part of my life towards studying. They twist themselves in moral knots concocting some "Invasion Of The Bodysnatchers"-esque scenario which takes the "clump" through some sort of mystical tunnel to be replaced by what they imagine is a child post-birth. It's like they're playing the Freeze-Tag of ethics, where anything goes with another human being as long as they're in a certain state, but once they pass out of their mother they've touched base, no tag-backs. Who would've thought that a child-like propensity for magical thinking would give way to the slaughter behind and before us. Roughly 55 million dead in their wake. A misbehaved child-like demeanor of "Me, Me, My, My, MINE, MINE! MY BODY! MY LIFE! I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO MATTERS!!!" once grown has room for no other children to bother it.

Elective abortion is the willful premature termination of a pregnancy with the intent of killing the child within. The CHILD. The offspring of two sexually-mature individuals is their CHILD, which stands if the CHILD is an embryo at a week old or a grown woman of 50 years. This is what they don't want to hear. This is what the "Choice" that they celebrate means. It's the celebration of death, and today on my birthday, I will spend it with my daughter who those around me wanted dead in this procedure called abortion, and together we will celebrate LIFE.

Bungee Jumping Off The Fiscal Cliff, With Soros And Friends!

So, according to HuffPo, we can all stop worrying about that fiscal cliff now, since global humanitarian/financial collapse instigator/former NAZI George Soros and his buddy "Do-As-I-Say-Not-As-I-Do" Buffet have a plan! It's really quite simple. Allow me to translate the MoonSpeak:

Step 1: Chase all upper-earners out of the country via tax hikes. Since upper earners are also more likely to be providing private industry jobs, we want to get them out of here ASAP in order for this plan to work.

Step 2: Phase out private industry completely. Begin the government take over of as many industries as possible. It's already kinda begun with the medical field, auto industry, and banking. We're not going to need private industry where we're going, and it's actually counter-productive to this brilliant new plan.

Step 3: Give EVERYONE a government job! Government hiring has already been expanded to unprecedented levels according to the last jobs report, so this step has also already begun. Once the first step is complete, the last two will wrap themselves up rather quickly. This is where the bus is being steered, as Obama's Job's Council Head admitted via praise for China's system.

Now, under this new plan, we will avoid the fiscal cliff by dropping a nuclear bomb on the cliff and leveling our entire financial system into a beautiful sheet of glass. The United States of America won't have to pay back any loans when it doesn't exist anymore. To Revolution, Comrades! The Union of American Socialist States will endure FOREVER!

Do-Overs!

UGH! I am SO frustrated that I can't seem to maintain direction with my blog, or even the will to write anything in it consistently, or even maintain focus on what I do end up writing!

Soooo, in that vein, I've recently found out that my son will not be able to start kindergarten this year. So, that puts a big-ass cramp in my plans to try and start work this fall. So, I've decided to start a few blogs this year. This one, another where I will start writing chapters of a book I wrote back when I was in high school (theological science fiction, say wha?!), and one for my personal/family life. Hopefully, I'll be able to write AT LEAST one post in one of the blogs, depending upon what my thoughts are at any given time or what has been going on in my life. I should be writing much, MUCH more than I do (besides just commenting on other peoples' blogs, for cryin' out loud), and I think it's about time that I rectified this situation, now that I should have the time and resources to do so.

So, my sincere apologies to anyone who can read this, and here is hoping to a bright new (upcoming) year!

Need More Rage

When last I left our hypothetical typical American, thrust about from Corrupt System to Corrupt System-all infiltrated and eaten away by the Progressive Agenda-they were just getting out of college. Well, unfortunately, it isn't any better once they are out on their own.

If they either didn't go to college or did not successfully complete it, chances are, they will struggle to find gainful employment. This makes them ripe for the picking in the eyes of The Machine. Disenfranchised poor are a class well exploited by progressives.

(blah blah blah. I will edit and eventually finish this post some time in the future. Currently writing a new post about how flippin' crazy insane-o my life has been the last couple months. In a good way, though!!)
