Thank You

They gave our children mind altering
poisonous drugs to eat,
and we said thank you.
They gave our children excessive violence
and sadistic sex films to see,
and we said thank you.
They performed mutilating surgery
on our children’s' genitals, and we said
thank you.
They turned public education into
propaganda and indoctrination,
they blasphemed God and Faith,
they took away our free speech,
took away our free and fair elections,
murdered children about to be born,
telling us to bend over again
this next election -- 
thank you
thank you
thank you
thank you
thank you
thank you.........................................

Thank you, Andrea. How about that phony debate last night...3 against one. Give it time to settle. After a few days, Trump will pull ahead even further in the polls, despite the lying, fawning conspiring Marxist sympathizing media. ABC was disgraceful. The public is not as stupid as they think. Trump took a public whipping for all of us...and it will show in the polls to his favor. Give it a few more days. And Truth will prevail.

Joe, this I understand is a litany of complaints under an oppressive governance. We never thought that things will be so in the US. Everywhere in the world when power comes to rest in undeserving hands, downfall begins and the ones who suffer most are the common people.

And this really constitutes a mere prelude to all they've 'given' us! Tell it like it is, Joe!

Hi Gershon; yes, help me with the list: Jews and Christians being isolated and slaughtered. The slaughter in Ukraine, 100 thousand deaths a year in the US from fentanyl and other devastating drugs -- drugs found in the White House, Pelozi giving the Pope spiritual council?~bizarre thought, but I would not be surprised.... Brothers and Sisters, think what evil has come from single issue, ill advised capitulation!! When we (and I mean we. If you think your soul is isolated, you are gravely mistaken) sit before Peter some day, and he reads our combined list of pros and cons -- think: you never stole, good; true to spouse and family good~ but what about all these abortions? Rapes and murders, senseless global wars that would not have been were it not for the maniacs you voted into office. Hmm.....500,000 thousand needless deaths a year of My sacred family due to starvation in a world of plenty. Hmm.... Experimental virus that killed 4 million or more. Hmm............

Sad how history repeats itself in the negative. Thank you for commenting, Arlo. Have a great day my friend.
