Think about this. I would love to hear what you think.
Okay, this is political, not for long, but I just have to say that when a certain unnamed Republican nominee has been cited for 70 lies in one speech (fact-checkers, news checkers, money checkers, tax checkers, donation to charity checkers and more), one wonders why the American people are standing for this.
Just an aside: The not-named Republican came from an IMMIGRANT family. This, from Newsmax:
Trump’s grandparents anglicized their name from Drumpf. His grandfather Friedrich and grandmother Elisabeth were born in Germany and emigrated to the United States. Their son Fred Trump married Donald Trump’s mother Mary Ann MacLeod, who was born in Scotland and met Donald Trump’s father during a vacation trip to New York.
So you see, voters, Mr. T. is the son of immigrants.
What I would like to see is every single undocumented immigrant in this county walking out of his/her job for one day. ONE DAY.
Our country would collapse. And if every single immigrant walked out, we would have NO country at all. Just food for thought.
Now, back to more pleasant things. I really am sorry for getting into all this political stuff instead of commenting on the beautiful things in life like kitties and gardens and good cooking and nip and lizards and, well, you know the good things, don’t you?
It just sort of whacks me upside the muzzle when I see the American voters being hoodwinked into believing downright, absolutely proven lies and I am hoping that when the time comes to decide the future of YOUR/OUR country, you will think very seriously about what is going on. Personally, I think we will ALL look back on this debacle, this sideshow, this circus, this incredible wool-over-the-eyes event in American history and groan.
Ah, well, the dahlias are blooming and the little tomatoes are forming and the roses are fed and about to burst out again and I have been fed and am dreaming of peace and good will. What better antidote to insanity can there be?
Yes, we had a fire in the Place. It is still COLD, even after hot tiles.
i am very sorry that this lovely blog has turned into a forum for political comentary.
I was not aware that Mr.Trump was/is a liar on a grand scale as reported. I have heard nothing. I am not a supporter of either candidate. Both candidates have their baggage.
I just saw that France had 2 murders of police officers. Isis is dangerous. I am sad for Le France and the world.
Please don’t think that those of us that LIVE in the United States of America are blind to our short-comings. Our Goverment has gotten so huge and duplicitous we don’t have much trust in any politician. Trump, Clinton or Obama.
God Bless you Little Kitty. Stay well and safe.
You are absolutely right and I appreciate your kind suggestion that my sweet blog (thank you for those words) remain so and not become so political. It is just that I see our country believing in a man who has not one honest bone in his body, who never tells the truth unless it suits himself in some way and who has no couth, no elegance, no embracing of our very respected Latino immigrants who serve the USA in vast numbers, and I will stop here because the list is too long.
I, too, am tired of politics and I plan to write good things in my blog whenever possible, about the joy of life, about friendship, about good food (and good wine, even though I can’t have it, being a kitty!) and about things that are uplifting to the soul.
Thank you for your comment as it made me realize that no matter what I write, it is seen by a fraction of those who can really make a difference. Perhaps our country is too big on the one hand, but then again, it has given so many such a good life because it was open to anyone wanting freedom.
Thank you again. I look forward to your comments in the future. You are very eloquent.
We’re just amazed at all the humans that buy into the Ds lies…or make excuses for him. Thank cod we’re cats and don’t hafta get involved in the political cr*p. 🙂
Yes, let’s hear it for CATS who are way smarter than you know who with the toupee.
I did not know Trump was the son of immigrant parents or how many lies were in his speeches ( I knew there were some).
You look so cute, I want to rub that tummy. Please tell your Mama thank you for the bread tips, I am going to try again later in the week. XO
Well, I shall thank her, and she is so happy because she has duplicated her bread that she made in LA at the bakery and all it took was waiting 2 days in the fridge to get a wonderful ‘corny’ flavour. And only the focaccia dough is necessary.
MeOW LouLou what a great fireplace. You be one lucky kitty girl fur sure. And me luvs your foto. Dat expression is purriceless. 🙂 As fur pawlotics…da American peeps have been lied to so much fur so long they believe anything. After all, every pawlotician lies, da D’s just been called out. But het, da last one wouldn’t even purrove he was truly an American citizen and peeps voted fur him, not once but twice. MOL Back to da good and nice things…dahlias are very purretty. We don’t have any here, but me’s seen fotos of them.
Luv ya’

Dezi, Obama is an American citizen. A president cannot be otherwise and he does have proof. But Trump is the biggest liar we have ever seen. Oy, forgive me. NO POLITICS…only thank you for your nice messages. And we are crying here for Orlando, but not for the man with THREE guns with which to kill innocent people.
