Why Europe is Doomed

 By Rich Kozlovich

Over the years I've stated the EU would collapse by 2025 or at the latest by 2030.  Well, 2025 was wrong, will it be in 2030?  Truth be told, it's coming, and it's coming soon.  The actual date is immaterial.  It's the cycles and patterns that matter.  Let's start with England.  

There's been a lot of talk over the years about England's "free" health care system, but the end result has been disastrous, and right from early on.  As of now the UK's emergency room waits kills 300 poeple a week in their "free" system of socialized medicine.

The opposition leader of the Reform UK movement, Nigel Farage, was "referred for potential prosecution over his public critiques of the British justice system amid the controversial "Manchester Airport trial", comments that needed to be made over the failure of the British government to properly prosecute as a result of their two tiered criminal system involving Muslim criminals.

How clueless is Prime Minister Starmer?   

Keir Starmer says 'successful, brilliant, creative' Muslim immigrants have made great contributions to Britain’s story .............Well, they certainly have been successfully creative at bilking British taxpayers out of billions of pounds of hard-earned money. And they have been similarly successful in their creative use of knives against the native island-dwellers...............It is almost impossible to overstate the trouble the United Kingdom is in.

The knife attack in Belfast has triggered protests across Scotland and in England over the explosion of Muslim immigrant crimes and the government's efforts to hide them.  Brits are finally getting angry, but does the Labour party change their position and actions?  No... of course not.... the problem isn't Islam, illegal immigration, or mass immigration of people who hate western civilization and wish to violently destroy it.  The problem is the public is being misinformed, so their solution is to create a secret unit of ‘Thought Police’ that will manipulate the narratives and control the anger of the peasants. This is a massive government effort to curtail free speech.

In the wake of violent unrest in Belfast sparked by yet another brutal attack involving an asylum seeker, details have emerged of a secretive government operation working overtime to shape what the British public is allowed to think and say about the failures of mass migration. This isn’t organic crisis management—it’s engineered narrative control, straight out of a Cold War playbook, now deployed against ordinary citizens frustrated by unchecked violence and cultural erosion.

And we wonder why young Brits are ignorant of their history.  These demonstrations are shaking things up.  Even supporters want Prime Minister Starmer gone, and the Brits want the Labour party to join him.  

The EU is run by bureaucrats .........who are "petty, exhausting, and expensive, Euro-bureaucracy is steadily eroding Europe’s competitiveness and turning private-sector investment into a gamble. The idea of the free market -- namely that consumer demand for cleaner, more environmentally friendly production and logistics can be expressed through competition itself, one of civilization’s greatest achievements -- appears to have largely vanished within today’s EU.........

"Brussels always tells the same story: regulation is supposed to strengthen the European single market and harmonize economic and environmental objectives. A beautiful narrative -- especially for those who stand to profit from it. Similar dynamics have already emerged in other sectors, such as carbon emissions trading. In the end, compliance costs for affected businesses rise, the bureaucratic apparatus expands through new control and sanctioning mechanisms, and the overall economy loses competitiveness."

In France the 1 in 3 people are either foreign born or descendant of immigrants.  The issue in this case isn't just that they're immigrates. The issue is they're Muslim immigrants, and rightly so.  Would it matter if they were from Switzerland, Germany, Poland, or any of the other western nation?  No, it only matters because they're Muslims, and for good reason.   This isn't immigration, it's invasion.  An invasion by people who subscribe to a religion that demands the destruction of any and all who refuse to convert.  They want to destroy the nations that are foolishly taking them in, and worse yet, these foolish governments are pandering to them.  

The stupidity of Europe's leaders and the arrogance of Europeans overall is mind boggling.  One example is their smug superior act over their position on gun ownership, and yet foolishly ignore the rising crime involving knives, mostly done by Muslim immigrants, mostly to the unarmed local ethnic population, making them helpless victims.  Just as the knife attack by that Sudanese asylum claimer against an unarmed man in Belfast who he slashed, and blinded in one eye.  If a bystander hadn't taken a shovel to his head he might have beheaded his victim. 

Now the EU has decided trade with China isn't "sustainable".  Wow!  I'm shocked, shocked I tell you! Well, the bugman understood that from early on, and that should have been obvious from day one to the EU leadership.   But the EU being the EU, filled with arrogant multicultural wokeness, they just didn't get it.

It's interesting how the EU's pandering to Russia over the years is now playing out.  They're concerned Putin's ambitions for expansion aren't necessarily stopping with Ukraine, although he's claimed he has no aspirations to attack NATO nations.  But in response to Europe's efforts at what they're calling ‘Strategic Autonomy,’ he's also said:

...... "that membership in NATO “will not protect” Baltic states – Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia – that may be aiding Ukraine by hosting its military drones, something Russia accuses Latvia of doing. All three countries are members of the European Union that border Russian territory. "

Well, personally, I think that's big talk he can't walk.  He's in deep economic trouble and has serious demographic problems he can't solve.  In no way can he afford another battle front, but nonetheless,  Europe's scared now. 

Here's the lesson American's need to take away from all this European insanity.  These are the policies Democrats want for America, and disaster is sure to follow.  Europe no longer counts, economically, philosophically or culturally.  All they have left is arrogance.  Here's a reality that's going to come home to roost.  International debt, and inflation. 

Every major currency in the world has lost most of its value since 1971:

  1. US:  $100 in 1971 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $822 today, a cumulative loss of roughly 87%.
  2. UK:  The British pound has lost roughly 95% of its purchasing power between 1971.
  3. EU:  The euro, which replaced the lira, has itself lost purchasing power: €100 in 1997, the year the ECB’s Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices series begins, is equivalent to about €184 today, a loss of 46% in under three decades.
  4. Russia:  From 1993 alone, the ruble lost over 99.9% of its purchasing power, per OECD and World Bank data.
  5. Canada: The Canadian dollar has lost roughly 87% of its purchasing power since 1971.
  6. Germany: Deutsche mark lost roughly 76% of its purchasing power between 1971 and 2002. 

This is the tip of the iceberg, and for no other reason than these nations are writing checks they can't cover.  The legendary 37 trillion dollar national debt of the United States is shocking, but the federal government owns 150 trillion dollars in assets.  That debt can be paid, none of these other nations are true capital generating nations and they don't have trillions in assets that can be liquidated.  

There are four things that determine the state of any nation, or region.  Geographics, demographics, economics, and happiness. Those four points represent the first of my seven rules on geopolitics.

  1. First Rule of Geopolitics: All geopolitics is about four factors, geographics, demographics, economics, and that most elusive factor of all, the happiness factor.  
  2. Second Rule of Geopolitics:  Everything is about the basics.  You have to be able to see issues at their foundational root levels in order to understand and fix complex problems.
  3. Third Rule of Geopolitics: History is everything since historical events lay the foundation for the social paradigms of nations, which have been in effect for centuries in most areas of the world. In short, culture is king.
  4.  Fourth Rule of Geopolitics:  People are like nations, and will act in their own best interests, unless they don't.  
  5. Fifth Rule of Geopolitics: Nothing is ever as it appears.  Look behind the curtain, there's always something hidden.
  6. Sixth Rule of Geopolitics:  The patterns of life keep repeating over and over again. 
  7. Seventh Rule of Geopolitics:  Everyone lies.     
Europe is failing in understanding all seven, and now the EU has invited the Taliban to visit Brussels for mass migration talks.  If you had any doubt as to their cluelessness, that should dispel them.

Is the Iran Deal Really That Good?

 By Rich Kozlovich

This "deal" Trump has negotiated is being lauded and touted as something great.  Let the oil flow, ships can now start their engines, the world is safe now.  It's being lauded as if it's going to stand the test of time.  I think that might be just a bit premature.  

As General Flynn has publicly taken the position

“The regime in Iran is lying to you and your negotiators. Period, stop. Do not believe a word they say.”........... "General Flynn got it right. The Iranian negotiators were playing out a lesson taught by Mohammed himself. What the Iranians have been doing is engaging in the Islamic practice of hudna, the practice of calling for a truce while preparing for war."

Iran will not honor any agreement any more than did the Barbary pirates in the early 1800's.  They cut a deal and then things changed, they renege because that's Islam.   What's worse is Trump gave the impression to the civilian population of Iran he was going to take out this regime:

.....Trump told the Iranians, who were still demonstrating in the street by the tens of thousands, “Help is on the way”. But help did not come, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the multi-service primary force of the Iranian Armed Forces that is now thought to be running the country with an iron fist, murdered nearly forty thousand demonstrators and publicly executed many more, imprisoning and torturing others with extraordinary cruelty.

Thousands rose up and thousands were executed.  Iranians facea reign of terror, and it's not going to stop with this agreement.  As far as I can tell, this agreement doesn't require Iran to stop murdering their people, nor can it prevent it.  And if it did, it wouldn't be enforceable.  As it turns out this deal is already starting to unravel and it's not even in effect yet.  

No nukes and no money?  Right, but what about the billions in ‘humanitarian aid’.  Of course those billions can only be used for humanitarian purposes, just like the billions Obama/Biden gave to Iran.  In the past it appears that humanitarian aid in Iran meant supplying arms to terrorists organizations, but they'll be good this time.  Right?  Does anyone besides me find his abandonment of Lebanon troubling? And does it appear to anyone besides me his reasoning is very similar to the Islam/leftist rhetoric we've seen so often?

In spite of his "promises" to the Iranian people what he really wanted wasn't the elimination of a terror sponsoring regime, his plan was for a universal Abraham Accords in the Middle East, creating a binding economic environment that would overcome Iran's form of Islamic ideology.  That's delusional.  

With the views expressed by his son-in-law and Steven Witkoff I wondered why they were involved in the negotiations.  Now we know.  But his real goal.... at least it seems to me .......... is his desire to win the Nobel Peace Prize.   You know, the one awarded to Yasser Arafat, Jimmy Carter, and Barack Obama.  

History is the touchstone of truth and the creator of long term vision because the patterns of life repeat over and over again, people will be people, and Islam will never be a fit partner with western civilization. That's history and that history is incontestable.  It appears Trump doesn't read history books.

Mike's Musings

By Rich Kozlovich, Originally posted on Friday, January 27, 2023

In days gone by I loved reading Mike Royko, and William Raspberry, both gone way too early, both provocative writers who used foils to bounce their views off, real or imagined.  Royko's was the local bartender and his patrons, and Raspberry's was a local cab driver.  Mike the bugman is mine, who sends me stuff that's often humorous, yet profound.  I call these offerings,

So, let's get started with a bit of pretending.

Let’s pretend there’s not “a wide range of genders.” Let's pretend there are only two genders and a wide range of mental disorders.  I mean if you can pretend Bruce Jenner is a woman, Kamala Harris is black and Joe Biden is sane, you can pretend I’m wearing a mask, and I've been vaccinated 22 times, and think Fauci is a saint.  Trust me, that's a lot of pretending, which bring me to this observation.  

Why is it only in America can an ethnic group have a black awareness month, a black holiday, black only colleges, black only dating sites, black only bars and clubs and turn around and claim America is a racist nation?

Why is it when archeologists find human remains, they’re either male or female, and it appears they’ve never, ever, found any of the other alleged 112 genders and/or 71 subcategories?  

It’s been reported, truthfully or not, that Chinese third graders are learning multivariable calculus.  And while it certainly seems true our third graders are not being taught advanced mathematics, they're fully versed on the idea that men can have babies and the world is going to burn to a crisp.

I can’t help but wonder if that’s going to be a problem down the road?

Senator Kennedy from Louisiana once asked, “I don’t know why we have to give money to countries who hate us.  They should be able to hate us for free”.  After all, hating America is freedom of speech and thought.  Oh, wait, they don't have that in countries that hate us.  Well, now I see, that explains why we're paying them to hate us.  Tell me.  Does that seem stupid to anyone other than me?   But it isn't like we don't have a lot of stupid manifesting itself in America. 

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are convinced study, hard work and getting a good job is essential.  That is essential for them to be able to redistribute your taxes to a lot of people who never studied, never worked hard and refuse to work, but vote for Democrats.  It's called communism, and they think those who oppose this and think this is detrimental to the nation are extremists.   Imagine that!

Think about this.  Joe Biden has been President for over two years, and nothing is built, nothing is back, and nothing is better, and we’re shocked?  This is from a man who was only been stunningly successful at being a failure.  Let's face it, Joe Biden isn't the brightest pebble in the brook and his only success has been in getting elected over and over again by a lot of pebbles in the brook that are even less bright than Biden, with a lot of help from voter fraud.  But as Delaware's Senator, that state kept electing him in spite of the fact in all those decades in  "public service" he never accomplished a thing.  See, I told you there's a lot of stupid in America.

He was largely a failure at everything else he did before that, and has been plagued with charges, legitimate charges mind you, of plagiarism all of his life.  And we should believe him when he said he was shocked to find there was a lot of classified documents found illegally in his possession, right next to his Corvette? Now, isn't that being just a little bit picky? Nah, that's just being a little snarky.

His solution to the energy issues facing us now?  Tapping our oil reserves instead of drilling. Which is kinda like tapping your 401K instead of going to work, eventually there's a penalty to be paid for stupid.  

Is it true that when Joe Biden was asked about these latest scandals he opened up a can of alphabet soup, spread the contents out on his desk and read the answer?   Nah, that's not true either, but the end result’s the same, so does it really matter if it’s true or not?  Call it alphabet soup, or call it word salad, it doesn't matter. Stupid is stupid no matter how it comes out.  

One has to ask, if all these leftist politicians and their myrmidons in the Deep State are willing to treat Americans like dirt now, what would they do if all the guns were banned?  Is it possible they don't do those things now because they'd get shot for doing them?  Leftists rant about moral values, none of which they believe in because if there's no God, there are no values, and they don't believe in God.  The leftists claim if you shoot and kill a burglar it means the you value your things more than the burglar's life.  Talk about twisted reasoning.   I prefer this explanation.  

Home owners with guns have a more straight line of logic about this.  If you break into their home, "you" value the residents things more than "your" life.  See, simple.

So, that leaves two diametrically opposing views in America.  There are those who believe in God, know what restroom to use, believe equal rights is not equity, believe in law and order, believe criminals need to be arrested, tried for their crimes and put in jail, and have the most guns.  And those who don't.

Suggestions anyone? 

My Karmelo Commentary

 By Rich Kozlovich,

Let's start this commentary by citing and quoting one of my favorite American Thinker writers, Olivia Murray, in her article, which attracted a lot of attention, New ‘trend’ shows blacks attacking random whites and accusing them of being part of Karmelo Anthony’s jury selection, saying:

Yesterday, I came across a video in which a black man films himself riding down the street on a bicycle, reportedly in Florida, before he pulls over where a white man is sitting on the ground talking to a white woman while they appear to be waiting for a bus. Out of nowhere and without provocation, the black man punches the seated white man in the head, accusing him of being part of the “jury selection” for the Karmelo Anthony trial; he also says to the white man, who is a veteran, “you gonna die.”........

I posted two words in the comment section, fully expecting to upset a lot of people.  Those two words?  It's genetic!  Not surprisingly, someone took exception to that saying:

No, it’s not genetic. Hatred is not an innate behavior. No child is born with the ability to hate someone. First off, hatred is an intense emotional response to something, and emotions are a learned behavior. No, hatred is something that is taught. 

In the case of blacks who hate all whites, they are taught to hate whites in the home growing up. When all that you hear since as far back as you can remember that all of your problems, everything that is wrong in your life is because of white people, then you naturally will become indoctrinated to hate all whites. 

This hatred of whites becomes a seemingly ‘normal’ way of seeing the world around you because nearly everyone that you have ever known has said the very same thing. So then from that black child’s point of view this is normal. Another word for such a behavior is that you develop a personal schema, which you see the whole world through and process everything mentally that you see. (I might have screwed how I explained what a schema is, but I am really close to the technical definition. You get my point.)

Such behavior is not exclusive to black homes only. As a white man I grew up in a struggling blue collar white household and family where any reference to blacks was always voiced as “those damned n- - - - - s …”, “MF’ing n- - - - - s…”, etc. etc. All of my parents friends, most of our neighbors where we grew up, all spoke the very same way about this subject. 

I was fortunate enough to see through the hatred, and to eventually understand it and the why for it. I have also been fortunate enough to have met some really decent, good black people, who were sane and relatively normal/not racist, good salt of the earth kind of people. Most of these I wish we still lived close enough to that we could still be friends. But I have also met an awful lot more hateful black racists who just hated all white people, and will never accept that any whites are not their enemy. Some whom I have physically fought with repeatedly.

What I am trying to share here is that not all are this way or that. No race is a monolith. We each need to open our hearts and be open to discernment that there will always be some who have risen above, and these people are truly worth the effort and time to know and accept as brothers and sisters.

My response to this was; when you see this behavior in black cultures all over the world you have to conclude…. it’s genetic.  In other posts he stated:

And maybe there is a reason why blacks in other parts of the world behave in this manner. There is a lot more at play than just genetics for why blacks in other cultures may behave in a similar manner.

Everything we do has a genetic component, including a propensity for irresponsible behavior and intelligence.  Refusing to recognize that is a failure in observing reality. Generalizations aren’t meant to frame every individual, it’s meant to recognize a pattern of behavior in a group. This pattern of irresponsible behavior is a worldwide social paradigm.  When you see this behavior in black cultures all over the world you have to conclude…. it’s genetic.  Later he posted this:

It is a fact that hatred is an emotion, and therefore it cannot ever be an innate characteristic which can be inherited. But if you wish to believe in otherwise, that is your choice. This sounds eerily similar to how Ratchet Crockett chooses to present her intentional ignorance as some kind of fact. But hey, you do you. Have a good day.

As you can see he became a bit perturbed.  We're all willing to accept the physical characteristics are inherited because we can see those characteristics, but we're unwilling to accept character traits are inherited, in spite of the fact we can see those character qualities playing out in society daily because it's not politically correct.  

Bill Ponton posted this American Thinker article,  The Anthony family saga" saying:

There is something rich about Karmelo Anthony describing himself in his court filing as a “penniless, destitute, and indigent person, too poor to employ counsel to represent me on the appeal,” after his parents squandered the crowdfunded defense fund of $625,000 on meals at Cheesecake Factory, luxury handbags, and a new home in a gated community, presumably needed to foil attempts by relatives to sponge off them.

If the Anthony clan is representative of the intact black family that conservatives like Ben Shapiro are always clamoring for, then we should rethink that proposition. The elder Anthony instilled in his son arrogance, machismo, and a sense of victimhood, a deadly cocktail that no sane father would want to foster. Both parents show a disturbing lack of remorse for the actions of their little pit bull.

As I read this article I came away with the idea the author is under the impression this “family” is unique in black America. It’s not, it’s the pattern, and that selfish irresponsible behavioral pattern is ubiquitous in black culture…. worldwide. He responded to my comment saying:

I am living under no illusion. You are right, it’s pervasive

It’s unfortunate so many fail to recognize reality, and worse yet, they attempt to ameliorate that irresponsible behavior by blaming others calling observations of reality …. racism!  They're enabling that continued irresponsible behavior. As it stands right now, “All Things Great and Small are Racist.”

Blacks in America have not succeeded as Orientals in America, or Italians and Jews for that matter. And for the same reasons.   If you want a successful life you have to get a job, go to work every day, go in on time, leave on time, do the job you’re hired to do, don’t steal from your employer, don’t give your boss six thousand pounds of attitude, marry the person you’re making babies with, pay your bills, treat people with respect, don’t do crime and violence, don’t do drugs, raise your children with that attitude, make sure they go to school and do as best as they can - then you will have lived a successful life.

This really isn’t about race it’s about culture. What can you expect from a culture that has a 70 illegitimacy rate, and then blames whites for all their problems. Why? Because using the theme "everything racist", as the unending excuse they and their enablers in government use to avoid honestly addressing the problems in black culture. If they did, they’d be condemning themselves, and then they’d have to actually act on solutions that do something constructive.

Let’s Have a Serious Conversation About Race - How could anyone, real or not, go on camera and express sympathy for a murderer, at the expense of the murder victim and his family, no less? There’s really only one possibility: the cancerous cultural rot Democrats have forced and enforced on the black community..............Democrats created a failed education system designed to keep poor minorities where they are and ensure government dependence indefinitely, and nothing more. They tolerate a culture of violence, where actually learning is attacked as “acting white” and getting ahead is called “selling out.

How can you solve a problem when you won’t acknowledge it? You can’t. When black men are calling for other 15 and 16-year-old black men to kill more white people because “y’all will be out at 30, y’all ain’t gonna do life,” where is the condemnation? Where are the politicians and pastors?............Karmelo Anthony murdered a kid, not because “he felt threatened,” as he could have easily walked out of the tent if that were the case. He killed Austin Metcalf because he’d been conditioned by the left to be a victim and to believe that anything he did in response to that victimhood was justified.

Andrea Widburg ran this piece on April 21, 2024, A wheelchair-bound girl is beaten, and we need to talk about it, and this video is really disturbing showing the merciless beating of a poor young black crippled wheelchair bound girl being beaten, and done so by other black girls.   Name one nation anywhere on the planet that's controlled by blacks where this is any different.   

"Today South Africa experiences high levels of poverty, crime and many vital public services barely work."

Since 1950 there have been 492 coups in the world, some successful, some not.  But 220 of those were carried out in Africa. There are 54 nations in Africa, and 45 of them have had coups in that time period.  Of those coups that are successful; most of them only hold power for less than seven years. 

Racism is a Corrupt Scam Destroying America. The number one problem for blacks in America is other blacks. Not whites, not discrimination, not past history, it’s black attitudes and liberal solutions that excuse a lack personal responsibility.

"Violence in America is frightening.  Racial violence is pandemic.  Black culture in America is now a criminal culture, and it's not just against whites, Asians, and Hispanic.  Black thugs are non discriminating".  They hate everyone.   

Outrage Over Hung Jury in Brutal Beating of Asian Jewelry Store Owner Despite Clear Video Evidence  The video has been deleted in this link, but it is available in this one. 

Trial for man seen on video attacking jewelry store owner ends in hung jury Surveillance video shows 68-year-old Chang Suh being stomped on and hit in the head at least a dozen times - twice with a hammer.........

Eight monsters abducted, tortured, and raped a young mother and then murdered her, and these monsters even videoed the whole vile event. Her name was Mahogany Jackson.  What did they have in common? They were all black, including the victim. What was the jury verdict?  A hung jury! 
 
What is easily observable is the black community as a whole is culpable in enabling all this violent behavior, which is mind boggling since as Daniel Greenfield asks: 
 
Who really suffers from this distortion of American culture? He points out black crime in black America killed a quarter of a million blacks in a ten year period.  
 
Mike McDaniel asks:  Will the Karmelo Anthony verdict provoke a second Summer of Love?  Perhaps, and  I have no doubt this will trigger some violent action as race hustlers can’t ignore this “crisis”…. a crisis they’re creating. But I don’t think this will be as big as is feared as conservative blacks are starting to speak out. 
 
Since the facts aren't in dispute, I'm guessing his appeal will be based on the fact there were no blacks on his jury.  But during voir dire each and every black answered said they wouldn't convict him.  Why?  Because he was young and black.  Will that appeal win out?  We'll see!  As for his sentence?   Just 35 years with a potential for parole was a disgrace.

Properly Defining Abortion Leads to Clarity

By Rich Kozlovich

When it come to abortion we are in dire need of clarity, and clarity can only be achieved via definition.  William F. Buckley once said something along this order:

There's only one reason to for abortion - you don't believe its murder and there's only one reason to be against abortion - you believe it is murder. 

Let's start defining all of this by reviewing the account of Sir Thomas More, who refused to accept the divorce and re-marriage of Henry VIII as legal on religious grounds.  During the trial Richard Rich, having sworn under oath to tell the truth, lied about Sir Thomas, a lie which condemned him. Although the outcome was predetermined this lie justified the death sentence.

Sir Thomas More commented, "In good faith, Rich, I am sorrier for your perjury than my peril". As Rich was walking away from the witness stand, Sir Thomas says, "I have one question to ask the witness. That's a chain of office you are wearing. May I see it? The red dragon. What's this?" Cromwell replies, "Sir Richard is appointed Attorney-General for Wales". More says, "For Wales? Why, Richard, it profits a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world . . . But for Wales!"    

Nancy Pelosi was asked if a fetus isn't a human being then what is it? If a fetus is a human being then defeating abortion is a moral imperative. If these people are so afraid of standing on such strong moral foundation then what do they believe in - other than getting re-elected by pandering to the lowest moral common denominator?  The left, and many alleged conservatives, are willing to bend on infanticide because they believe they can't get elected otherwise.  

But accepting infanticide for a seat in Congress?

Dennis J. Kucinich, a far left former Mayor of Cleveland and Member of the House of Representatives was an anti-abortion Catholic all of his life. At least until he decided he wanted to be the Democrat nominee to run for President of the United States.  Then he had an epiphany that abortion wasn't so bad after all.  

But accepting infanticide to be President of the United States?  

He sold his integrity and didn't even get to run, and that decision will paint him forever for who and what he really is.  And today we have radical Pope Leo, who like Pope Francis, dislikes the traditional Catholic Church, and so set out to fundamentally transform that institution.   In fact, according to LifeSiteNews:

Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia said Pope Francis deliberately sought to ‘recreate’ the Pontifical Academy for Life and the John Paul II Institute in order to move Catholic theology beyond what he described as a ‘moralistic’ framework based on natural law.

Yes, we wouldn’t want Catholic or Christian theology to be based on morality, would we! And certainly not on natural law!  In point of fact the main stream "Christian" churches are fundamentally twisting themselves into shapes no apostle would recognize; bending like pretzels to please a secularized society, most of whom rarely attend. 

Abortion cannot intelligently, morally or ideologically be defined as anything but the murder of the innocent unborn.  As for these "religious" leaders who've sworn oaths at their ordination to uphold Christian doctrine and scripture; they've sold their integrity and honor in order to be politically correct.  Perhaps they should remember that someone is watching?  Truthfully, based on their action, I have serious misgiving about whether or not they really believe there's a God.

Abortion is Not the Right to Choose. It's the Right to Murder

By Rich Kozlovich
 
For some reason P&D articles going back to 2008 are being hit a lot this week.  One of the articles I linked in 2012, is being hit a lot now.  Here are the author's thoughts from the original post. 
 
I am going to describe how an abortion takes place

A suction nozzle not unlike a carpet-cleaner is inserted into the womb. The little child, realizing that its home is being invaded, shrinks away.  
 
But there is no escape. The child is dismembered, limb by limb, and the little pieces are sucked out of the womb and set aside for experiment, incineration, or sale. The ultrasound scan of the womb shows the child’s tiny face distorted with fear, pain and then agony. Its butchers can see it screaming. They do not care, for they do not love.   
 
If by some miracle the little one survives this monstrous cruelty and is born alive, he or she is left to gasp a last, fluttering breath on a cold, metal tray under the cold glare of the strip-lights and the still colder glare of the vicious profiteers who salve their shrunken consciences by declaring to one another, mindlessly, over and over and over again, that “it’s just a fetus.”.......
 
 Medical ethics is now a contradiction in terms. They call it "the right to choose." What they mean is "the right to kill.".....
 
Do you remember The Gosnell Outrage?  If not, try this.  Gosnell Trial Witness: Baby Abortion Survivor Was 'Swimming' in Toilet 'Trying to Get Out'.  How can someone read something like this and not have tears in their eyes and a sick feeling in their stomach?  How can any rational person's heart not break over such vile practices?   
  

Abortion is the murder of the innocent unborn, and no amount of twisted logic and distorted language will change that.   Here are some of my commentaries on Abortion, but there's more by me and others in my abortion file .

What I'm Reading

By Rich Kozlovich 

The insanity of the worlds leadership is mind boggling. Europe is praising Angela Merkel for destroying their economy with her green energy insanity and open immigration. The UN .... and I'm really enjoying this..... has now come out and said their climate change projections were "implausible". Why? Because they were based on lies, disinformation, misinformation, intellectual fraud and ideology.  

But it became a leftist religious tenet that all had to embrace, except there were brave souls who stood against the current and suffered for their integrity, and now the truth emerges, and it turns out all their predictions of huge increases in global temperatures, rising sea levels, agricultural disaster, the melting of the polar ice fearmongering was actually a scheme to promote multiculturalism and mass immigration.... at America's expense.  Make no mistake, global warming made scientific integrity an oxymoron and the real goal was to destroy America.  Dwell on that for a while. 

Europe's Leadership is Demented 

  1. Brussels honors Angela Merkel while Europe continues paying the price for her migration policies and Germany’s energy disaster

Global Warming

The UN's Climate Doomsday Scenario Just Fell Apart

Democrats 

It's fascinating, the Democrats have adamantly insisted there's no... or little... voter fraud, but if that were true then why are they just as adamant in preventing efforts to prevent voter fraud?  Because without voter fraud, except for a few districts on the East and West coasts, no Democrat could get elected.  They have two things as their platform.  They hate Trump, and America is racist, and both of those memes are wearing thin. 

As for everything these leftist lunatics are promoting, this line about Seattle's socialist mayor is bringing reality into their lives.  " Idiot lib class warriors like to sound tough in front of their purple-haired, nose-ringed fans until they realize non-profit workers and commune baristas don't pay the welfare bill- capitalism does."

Republicans

I think it's fairly clear the Republican base is going on a RINO hunt in this election, and it will continue in 2028.  Thune has to run again in 2028 and there will be a concerted MAGA effort to unseat him, and his cabal of misfitslike Lisa Murkowski, Todd Young, Rand Paul, John Hoeven, and Chuck Grassley is going to be 94 by then and time for him to go home permanently.
