See you in November

Fine, that cake baker won his case as I thought he would. He does not have to bake a cake for a gay couple.  It does not prevent gays, partners, friends and family of gays or simply those who take the affirmation of civil liberties as a predominating force from boycotting that baker. If religious wingnuts want to direct purchases to him with his cake baking bigotry they should do so but that does not mean that the rest of us cannot mount our own political offense through boycott and organized opposition.

Remember, my gay friends, what is given can be taken away. The right to love and marry whom one chooses can be abrogated when the pick of Trump to fill another vacancy of the Supreme Court out numbers those justices who favor humanity, empathy and dignity for all those in our nation who simply want to be left alone whether it is to purchase a cake or solidify their love through marriage. That right is always one vote away from dismemberment.

Remember that in November when we can ameliorate and reverse Trump's rancid inhumane policies by creating our Democratic majority in the House and the Senate so this sad excuse for a president will receive the just opposition and penalty for which his ugly, mendacious, and hateful behavior cries out.

Melania Mystery Continues: First Lady Won’t Accompany President To G7 Or Singapore--An Everest Size Mistake

I will admit because I have a thing called empathy most Republicans do not have that I feel a bit bad for Melania. If it is a physical ailment she has I commiserate except that her health care is infinitely superior to any most of us could afford especially without Medicare. I feel bad for her, too, if it is emotional in that she was not cut out for this political volcanic explosion that comes with Trump. Take your pick. Either one she must put up with the personality monsoon that is the mendacious Trump or one must watch the organized army of critics of him (justly deserved) blabbering all day.

If one wants to know true torture ce
ment yourself on the living room couch watching and especially listening to CNN or even my favorite MSNBC all day long with their talking heads galore. It is worse than water boarding and I am a news junkie addicted to the most academically superior news in television, MSNBC. Perhaps I am a masochist since I watch it for hours every day and on the weekends too.

Imagine what it must be like to endure a cacophony of sound jamming your ear drums in the thick of it in the White House and not only that cameras clicking on one's every move all day every day. If I were she, and thank god I'm not, I would grab the first ticket back to Slovenia with Baron and chalk it up to a marriage that was an Everest size mistake!
