BARREL OF MONKEYS: "GENESIS" in Reverse


I consider myself a Democrat. Been called a Socialist. Definitely a bleeding heart liberal.


As a child from a traditional southern family, playing Barrel of Monkeys on the floor, church every Sunday, doing well in public school, learning a trade; in every sense privileged .........


Comfortable in middle age, an avid news reader, on learning the tragic story of a full grown chimpanzee destroying the face of a woman who offered a toy, only trying to help it's owner coax her surrogate child back into his cage......


Today being confrontational, ribald, offensive, restless, rebellious.......


How did I get here from there?

INDUSTRIOUS TORTOISES AND THE CAPITALIST HARES





"The story comes to mind of an engineer who was to be executed by guillotine. The guillotine was stuck, and custom required that if the blade didn't drop, the condemned man was set free. Before this could happen, the engineer pointed with excitement to a rusty pulley, and told the executioner to apply some oil there. Off went his head."

This article makes sense to me.
Can see how we are losing the race

the hair of our nose.


SHOW ME THE MONEY!
THE SMELL OF MONEY!

Tortoises or land turtles are land-dwelling reptiles of the family of Testudinidae, order Testudines. Like their marine cousins, the sea turtles, tortoises are shielded from predators by a shell. The top part of the shell is the carapace, the underside is the plastron, and the two are connected by the bridge. The tortoise has both an endoskeleton and an exoskeleton. Tortoises can vary in size from a few centimeters to two meters. Tortoises tend to be diurnal animals with tendencies to be crepuscular depending on the ambient temperatures. They are generally reclusive animals.

with 
 THE PARTY
of
  !!!!Gold (god) Plated !!! 



Always debating politics with family members and people at work; trapped actually, whomsoever perspective's  you choose to take.  Over time begin to notice, not the difference, but the similarity of many, if not most Democrats...... to Republicans.
 
Always thought of the Republicans as THE PARTY OF "I" before "YOU", or "US" against "THEM"; as opposed to the Democrats being....the THE PARTY OF "WE".
 
But as jobs become scarce and unemployment rises, as the party that got thrown in gets caught up in the.......
  
"THROW THE BUMS OUT!"

beginning to truly understand what it means to be a
 
"DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE A LIBERAL!"
 
as opposed to all the rest.

"A truly virtuous man would come to the aid of complete stranger equally as he would a close friend.  Then again, a truly virtuous man would have no friends."

 
It's not which party you vote with,
 
 it's who you are rooting for!
 
everyone
 
or
 
just

YOURSELF

"One thing I like about the Digital age: having the dictionary at my fingertips, how easy it is to look up unfamiliar words as I go along reading." "At least....... until, I played my first game of SCRABBLE on the internet. Wow! I had no idea you could spell so many words with seven letters every time." "Now I feel pressured to catch up!"
