That Phil does all the work around here, and that I needed a Nanny. Most mornings I'm up very earlier cleaning the house, but a Target doesn't feel it's the most important thing of the day, try constant fatigue and throwing up in the mornings, try fighting for justice, producing creative works, or just reaching out to a deaf receiver, including my daughter.  When is my time spent in a worthwhile way that would ever make a difference, What,,,,,still cleaning the kitchen after the greatest tragedy to ever strike human beings?  Sure.

You greatly disappoint me, Rand Paul, when you don't know the need or severity of your own constituents, and you lie about what will happen if we remove partial or all of Obamacare. You continue to spew myths surrounding it, and you haven't the heart to think of what's at stake.  I'll never vote Libertarian a day of my life. Dear Friend, It's been a busy week on Capitol Hill, as we have tried to fix the problems caused by our broken healthcare system. This week, I voted multiple times to repeal Obamacare, including offering my own clean repeal bill. Unfortunately, in the early hours of Friday morning, the Senate fell one vote short, which is disappointing. Later that morning, I shared my thoughts in an op-ed for Rare: The clean repeal, which I supported, wasn’t perfect, but it would have forced all parties to legislatively resolve the wreckage of Obamacare. The clean repeal, as every permutation of repeal, could not repeal the fundamental regulatory flaw of Ob...

When the kid goes to the park, he says, Who's the swinger? the girl goes to the store, gets things for her mom, then says, It's not enough, and the cashier says, You're always under something. The young man takes the chemtrails out of the sky like a pro,  and he says, They can't lay claim on me. the older woman gets a wig, feels it for surface, then says, I've never been ahead for this. young boy does detention, and says, I made this stage, I act up on purpose.

I'm coming to find out often, like all the time, how much people view a person with schizophrenia or mental illness, or a person who takes meds, when they use it as a slam against someone else. It is really off the charts right now, and I don't think people understand what they are doing.  Comparing someone who acts strangely as having a disease is like to saying What he does on purpose or for candor is excused into a bracket of a disability, and it not only shouldn't be that easy, but it's a slam against those of us who have never asked for an illness, never done drugs, never did anything wrong.  I'm really not sure how to handle all this anymore, but I guess I'll just blog about it, and you can decide.

Poem for you That sheet ain't gonna cover history, you know, lumps and blood stains, and snags that stick through when you try to remove it, would we even know a white sheet like surrender? I may have revealed too much, standing here a picture on a kid's milk carton with a cotton mouth and a pale look you'd bring up to a packed house for freight or making teeth work a clean break. I may have done more than what was ever my share. They pull sheets off of paintings, great art or sculpture, and the history there is the time it took. Lasting as a crocked weather vane or a horseshoe. Surely you don't think there is waiting there. All day I can't put an art more impossible than what you'd hide from even yourself, sheet tied to get out of a burning building, or sheet long as it is wide. -s.m.g.

When the final tally comes down, state governor Republicans have already failed, they've taken Medicaid that does exist now into managed health care, already cutting and slashing and capping funding for the poor and disabled, so likely, you can say, Joni Ernst did nothing wrong.  You can say that voting Yes to repeal critical programs will make America Great Again because that's the mantra that got her there.  There are many state Governors who won't take Medicaid money, force scores of people suffering with illness to just go ahead and die.  And they do die.  You've got a party that works so closely with big insurance companies and big pharma that the person on the receiving end has to basically give up everything to survive, instead, give those privileged more breaks and more perks.  How do I tell my daughter with cystic fibrosis that this country has basically given her less options, higher premiums, more cost to her by dismantling this bi...

What happened with Citizens United is that you've got a running pool of about 12 candidates, and each person says, This is my guy. Nobody wants to donate to somebody else after primaries or conventions. They spread the playing field too thin, then bitched that people were too indecisive.

Here are some reasons that people get addicted to a substance: women don't want to be housewives, and men don't want to get no sex. The location they are living in makes a daily job seem too low paying for the commute, or the opportunities are not th ere for them to get hired locally. The jobs they do get don't offer them creativity, leadership, free from harassment, so they quit. The child has problems at home, and no one understands.

what can we do, Richard, the state's are mostly Repubs admin wanting big business, pro petroleum, but accept being owned by Mansanto, or any other Koch Brothers stepping in. They've done managed care of Medicaid, and some states refuse to take money for it, cuts are looming, and the most vulnerable disadvantaged are up against odds. We need to see if the times are now from the opposing party, or always there. For instance, 20 years ago, if a mother was on Medicaid having another baby, they said, that's it, you only get 2. What they spew is that mothers on welfare keep popping out the kids, the people on the rolls haven't worked in 10 years, we've got people who can't pass a drug screen to get a job, people who are denied SSDI because they made too much money, the cycle of poverty is not as simple as welfare to work, we have a serious disabled system that won't allow the poor to keep their money, and when they do, everything goes up in their costs, not even o...

Juliette Low at her wedding had a piece of thrown rice lodge in her ear, becoming partially deaf, after a life of already having ear problems and being accident prone. Gordon Low cheated on her then had a stroke and died. Juliette met Baden Powell who was forming the Boy Scouts and together they developed the Girl Guides that become the Girl Scouts. She had incredible social connections and quickly grew it all over the country. Juliette got breast cancer but never stopped her work. I never would have been a leader for 4 years with out her story. Trump, you have taken back all of history tonight. What a shame.

Often when talking with veterans of our armed forces, this sentiment enters the conversation when discussing unexpected life paths after active duty – especially when it comes to their educational pursuits. Since it was first enacted in 1944, the GI Bill Department of Veterans Affairs education benefit has helped cover a significant portion of the costs associated with getting an education or training for service members, family members and eligible veterans. While the GI B...

In any legislation being put thru that wants to cut services for my mentally retarded son, is the most cruel and inhumane country he adores, and honors with his patriotic music, his addressing the flag, his love of being an American.  He enjoys everything the CCO budget offers him on the waiver, and I remember when so many doors opened up when he was able to get on it.  The Feds, even the Libertarian I was talking with online want to do away most of the government, there would be no pride left for any of us.  Do not dare cut us out of the fabric of life to be discarded.  Don't, Joni.

  If you're a Trump supporter please say these words and own them: There is no such thing as mainstream media. There is no such thing as Russia collusion. Allow the state dept. to harbor Russian spies and give them full citizenship. There is no such thing as health care. There is no such thing as Muslim. There is no such thing as family planned birth control. There is no such thing as keeping religion out of out government and schools. There is no such thing as reduced military spending. There is no such thing as caps on corps, but there is on Medicaid. There is no such thing as national monuments and parks. There is no such thing as the environment and climate change. There is no such thing as women earning their way to the top, they must be appointed. There is no such thing as one marriage. There is no such thing as gun control. There is no such thing as free elections. There is no such thing as being polite to a predecessor. There is no such thing as making the deal, it must be ...

A poem for my daughter When they took the building out of the man, they left glass you could eat from, his soul, a breeze, and a spoon clinking for a toast to the century. Many people came to where it all went down, that solid building was destroyed so easily it was given a switch when the sun comes on. There was life and love and laughter in those walls, and the time had given it's final hour where something else had fallen, the hearts sunk away from the dead tongue pulling the weight. And now it's no more, imagine how you would feel when you may have designed it and cleaned it and put your mark on it, down to the ground with a thud you can hear up to the heavens. The lot goes up for sale more than an exchange of words or ideas, it will be a patch of history gone against any other storm or fallen grace. The life speeds up to take the building out of the man, like any kind of trai...

I met a guy at Rozz Tox who told me he made a living off his art and he didn't feel any pressure, but I wondered those who pay for art, what he had become as an artist. Iowa is a state of many rich farmers, Illinois too, with a rugged, fishing, camping, hunting mentality, this land is your land.  Des Moines has got all the money, run by Republicans who've probably never heard a Reggae song, cutting off our universities in the arts, and making us into tools.  There used to be a reading every night at Prairie Lights, last I checked in the next two weeks, 2 readings.  Where innovation starts to lack, mastery takes over, so ideas are best kept in the 6th grade science project, and the people attending the concerts and galleries are high class, exceptional people like themselves. I've viewed kids art at Northpark Mall and the Figgee, and the first thing I thought was, it's not messy enough, clear pictures, transparent minds,  thinking of being good. ...

The young man gets one ear pierced and his girlfriend says, Now you're a stud. The man carrying a locked briefcase comes up to a security guard who says, My lips are sealed. The house has grown legs and it races the running water. The tree will turn colors and the kids jump into piles from the tree, young girl says to neighbor boy, I bet you're too yellow.

This is how targeting works, everyone finds fault in the things you say, do, think and feel. So when you try to tell your story or reach out for help, they turn a deaf ear, then they leave you for good. A target loses jobs, friends, family, houses, cars, bank accounts, until finally the target is backed against the wall that they either become homeless, or they commit suicide. I'm one of the lucky ones because I've got Phil, and my dog. The tragedy is that the hatred and criticism starts in higher places, like all the mass media, and trickles slowly down into your personal life. A target will fight the way they are treated, but they won't win, at all. It's a life sentence.

Easily.......my family.

Schools didn't do it. We started out reading books outloud together, she was able to identify each word as I pronounced it, and get the spelling right for each word. We read it quickly even if she struggled, to get the content. We went on all her youth reading books outloud together, or just me.  We did so many together, she copied, or followed, today she,s at or more as well read as me.
