For I hear many whispering, “Terror on every side!” They conspire against me and plot to take my life. But I trust in you, LORD; I say, “You are my God.”My times are in your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies, from those who pursue me. Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love. Let me not be put to shame, LORD, for I have cried out to you; but let the wicked be put to shame and be silent in the realm of the dead. Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous.How abundant are the good things that you have stored up for those who fear you, that you bestow in the sight of all, on those who take refuge in you. In the shelter of your presence you hide them from all human intrigues; you keep them safe in your dwelling from accusing tongues.Praise be to the LORD, for he showed me the wonders of his love when I was in a city under siege. In my alarm I said, “I am cut off from your sight!” Yet you heard my cry for mercy when I called to you for help.Love the LORD, all his faithful people! The LORD preserves those who are true to him, but the proud he pays back in full. Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD. Psalm 31:13-24 NIVIf we take off the rose-colored glasses and blinders and seek The Lord, we would understand why putting any hope in a delusional reality television celebrity was a waste of time, but could cost the United States dearly.
The uproar heard this weekend is enough to create in the heart of the sane, reasonable doubt about what 2016 Election really means. Across the nation, wherever the impotent GOP went, the outrage was heard and more felt by the constituents of those who refused to hear them. They lied by purporting falsehoods and propaganda--again--which is what caused reasonable people to believe the lies spewed.
There is no death panel anyone past the age of 74 will face. There is no need to use intimidation and fear as a tactic to keep senior citizens compliant--we proved it won't work. There is no need for anyone to think they speak for all women, when all women made their voices known, on either side of the issues--women do not need men to speak for them or make decisions for them.
But then--in order to make points--or at least to appear to make points--the truth gets lost in the midst of the lies. Planned Parenthood does more than provide abortions--they provide birth control--which precludes the need for an abortion. They also provide women important health screening which could save lives. I'm really tired of the false rhetoric pushed by liars in order to gaslight people, promoted by InfoWars, Breitbart, and Fox News.
Of course, considering who is in the White House--sexual predators and abusers of women, it's not difficult to understand the mentality that exists behind many of the budget cuts and policies--against women. When I heard an old, impotent GOP Senator refer to Elizabeth Warren as "little lady" in a belittling manner, I wanted to slap the grin off his face. So, now I get it--when they get too old for Viagra to hide their impotence, they take their frustration out on women--who are stronger than they are and will persist in their endeavor to expose injustice.
Many people who voted for the impotent GOP are now frustrated because they didn't bother to listen to everything they said. They had no intention of recognizing women and they did a phenomenal job of turning women against Hillary. I remember hearing one woman say to a reporter, "a woman couldn't be president because she has hormones." I've seen a lot of hormonal women in action and indeed have been one, but I haven't seen a woman act as stupidly as the toddler-in-chief. So, what's his problem--too much testosterone enhancements or missing brain cells?
Instead of ramping up policies for law-abiding citizens (especially when invoking ancient rules on the Senate floor), these old, white men, should retire and sit at home watching sports or reading their latest edition of, "Why It Won't Work Any More." If you think I'm angry, you'd be half-right and I won't bother to tell you about the other half. Before you think my comment is racist--against old white men--think again; if old black men or old Asian men or old Latino men (or any others) disrespected women, I'd say the same thing--but then again, it wasn't old black, Latino, or Asian men who disrespected Elizabeth Warren--it was Mitch McConnell in support of his equally repugnant crony, Jeff Sessions.
For all the women who understand, our outrage is real and will not subside until the impotent ones are no longer in a position to make decisions for us--I applaud each and every one and know this--I, too, shall persist in making known all the injustices occurring as a result of old frustrated impotent men, who are afraid of strong women.
The Lord will prevail since it is apparent that He cannot count on the "impotent ones" to do what is right for all human beings; especially those in the United States. Nevertheless, we will persist and we will prevail because The Lord is on our side and with Him at the forefront of every battle, we shall know victory on every side.
Our hope is You, Lord! We are listening and we will obey!
