And since when is Britain doing something a sign that we should? Tony Blair also agreed with the invasion of Iraq. You might want to turn the channel every once in a while:)

Those are simply talking points that make no sense. If the US wanted to protect against dangerous encroachment by Iran, we wouldn’t have pulled out of the Iran deal. What do you think we are doing now to put off their having a nuclear bomb? Anything...?

Grace and power are not silly words to be used superficially; they involve conscience, contrition, and a willingness to speak up against injustice and oppression.

This is evil. It means the sacrifice of any pretense that the US stands for anything more than making money. And if we as citizens are willing to simply look away, we are the generation who allowed that to happen on our watch. Stay awake. Apply soul force google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes…

Sometimes you have to walk through the jungle of your mind before you can reach the clearing in your soul. We should be less afraid of our despair sometimes, because it too can be part of the journey. The demons we meet in the darkness are dissolved once we reach for the Light.

Trump is the human embodiment of a sociopathic economic system, in which money matters more than values and power overrides empathy. In that sense he is providing us a service, demonstrating the external consequences of our internal dysfunction. Now we can bless him and move on.
