[Sen Dianne Feinstein spent thirty years in Congress. Her death yesterday launched an avalanche of hosannas by the lamestream for her productive life as a legislator. However, her accomplishments as such have been few and far between, and almost all misdirected. RIP Dianne. gjr]

Paul 2:13 – “Higher taxes for the wealthy-repeal Trumps tax cuts
Less spending”
How much higher? Rates or actual dollars? How much less spending? Where would you cut?
Does Paul have any understanding of how underwater we are with our deficits or why?
No.
I like to read Paul’s posts because he does truly represent the idiot American know-nothing voter. It’s good to know where the problem lies.
Even funnier:
“Russia retreating to their own country and respecting Ukraine as an independent state.”
And unless that happens?
Grrrrrr
“war, war, war!” sez Paul the newly minted war monger.
How about China and Tibet? Should China retreat to their own country and respect Tibet as an independent state?
Different? Why is it different?
Ah, because China would clean our clock.
And – they own our current sitting head potato.

I am a Green Libertarian. As of now we don’t have an organized political party. We believe that it should be part of our human traits to protect the land that sustains us naturally without the need for government action. When we don’t do that it our survival then requires that the government assumes that role.
Personally I am a Diest and we believe that God created nature and nature created us therefore we need to protect nature because it was our creator

This is a simple statement that describes Jeffersons deist influence:
“Thomas Jefferson, together with several of his fellow founding fathers, was influenced by the principles of deism, a construct that envisioned a supreme being as a sort of watchmaker who had created the world but no longer intervened directly in daily life.”
