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?

U.S. Court Overturns Calif. Same-Sex Marriage Ban - NYTimes.com

U.S. Court Overturns Calif. Same-Sex Marriage Ban - NYTimes.com: "“In America, we should respect and uphold the right of a free people to make policy choices through the democratic process--especially ones that do nothing more than uphold the definition of marriage that has existed since the foundation of the country and beyond,” said Brian Raum, a senior consel for the Alliance Defense Fund, which argued for the defense."

What a DumbAss statement!

Like to hear his definition of "free people" ?

And "democratic process".....?

Not like a family on a road trip trying to decide where to eat!

Again!

That's the purpose of the Supreme Court!

To correct where "democratic process" fails!
