Well, got the blood work results, and there’s good news and bad news. Good news: It’s a boy and he’s healthy. Bad news: He’s gay. I didn’t even know there was a blood test for that now, but I guess it’s new? They found the genes that cause homosexuality and they test for them now…
I’m a really tolerant person, but this has made me think hard. I don’t know how I feel about trying to raise a gay son. Will I be able to relate to him? Won’t his life be super hard? I know things are getting better for gay people, but it seems to me that being gay is really hard in the South in other parts of the country yet.h, where we live. Gay people aren’t really accepted here like in other parts of the country.
My wife told one of her friends that we are going to have an abortion because we don’t feel equipped to deal with raising a gay child. Apparently it got around to some of our gay friends from college. I’ve been getting emails, texts, and IMs all day from them asking me why I’m a homophobe, and why I hate gay people.
I don’t understand. It’s my wife’s body. It’s her choice, and I agree with it. It’s our choice of what to do with our pregnancy. How can anyone else tell my wife what to do with her body?…
We got to the clinic almost an hour early. They made us sit in the waiting room for a while and finally called us back, but instead of walking us into a table with stirrups like we expected, they escorted us into an office. A man in a lab coat was waiting at a desk.
“I recognize you,” he said, after looking at us sternly for what seemed like an eternity. I didn’t know what to say, so I didn’t say anything. My wife didn’t speak either. “What you are doing should be a hate crime, and I won’t have any part in it,” the man said, looking angry.
“But it’s my body,” my wife said, sounding defiant, but like a little girl too. “It’s my right.”
“It’s hateful,” the doctor responds. “You are terminating this pregnancy because you don’t want a gay child. Are gay children less valuable than straight children?” He sounded like a teacher trying to impart a lesson to a very slow student.
“No, but—” my wife started to say.
“A gay child has just as much value as a straight child. In fact, you are lucky! Gay children are very rare. Census numbers put the number of homosexuals in America at around 3 percent. It wouldn’t take many more people like you,” he nearly spits the words, “to eliminate homosexuality in America. That’s genocide, and I won’t have that on my conscience.
With that, we were ushered out. My wife cried all the way home. When we got there, we found that someone had firebombed our rented townhouse and wrote “Bigotry Doesn’t Belong Here!” and “Love Wins!” in spray paint on the sidewalk. I guess some fetuses are more equal than others, but I can’t understand it. I just followed all the arguments I’ve heard from our society to their logical conclusions.

It was of course an immensely popular show. Even though it took place during the Korean War it was an allegory to Vietnam with an anti-war message that there was nothing was worth fighting and dying for.
Korea was a messy bloody affair that ended in an armistice. There was no peace treaty. Technically the war is still on. Ruled by the Kim family crime syndicate for the last 65 years, it’s reason for being has been hatred for for the U.S. . It’s population is brainwashed. The people outside Pyongyang are starving. At least 200,000 are in the 9th circle of hell.
It was ostensibly the U.N against communist aggression, where the U.S. bore the brunt and casualties were enormous and all sides. But it saved what would become South Korea, a beacon of freedom and an economic powerhouse.
Vietnam was of course death by a thousand cuts. It went on too long but Nixon finally brought the North Vietnamese to the negotiating table by carpet bombing Hanoi with B-52’s. Of course we remember how history played out. Today for better or worse there is only one Vietnam.
In 2016 Donald Trump was elected President and a bunch of C-list celebrates including Mike Farrel (B.J.) and Loretta Switt (hot lips) produced a video imploring the Electoral College to overturn the election.
Because they didn’t get their way the Libs now want to abolish the Electoral College.
Now 44 years after Vietnam war ended with the North’s victory President Donald Trump becomes the 4th consecutive U.S. President to visit Hanoi. Only this time for the purpose of a second summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in an attempt to denuclearize the Korean peninsular and to try and convince the Kim that there are better ways to bring prosperity to his people using Vietnam itself as a model.
No one can predict the outcome although the “Drive by Media” is praying to Gaia that Trump’s attempt for a successful summit, perhaps officially ending the Korean War with a real peace treaty will fail. Because…

More and more of the pilgrims chose the path of sitting around or faking illness until the nonworkers outnumbered the workers. Women resented the idea of cooking for someone because his wife chose to be a nonworker and, according to Governor Bradford’s memoirs, considered it a form of slavery. It became so bad that at one point each person was rationed to 3 to 4 pieces of corn per day. You read that right – PIECES (or kernels) of corn. They were starving
Bradford scrapped the system. Gave every family a plot of land, reminded them of Genesis 3:19 , and that the product of their labor was theirs to do as they saw fit. After the next harvest the colony was awash in abundance.
The flaw that doomed the Communist experiment is apparent. Do you know what it is? *
*When the pilgrims experiment with Communism proved to be an abject failure they quickly abandoned it. Unlike Russia, Mongolia, China, Cuba, and Venezuela the pilgrims didn’t have a secret police and an atheist ideology to ensure that “those who do not work, will not eat”.
And Finally.
Lets listen. He’s promising utopia dystopia .
“We are the only major country on Earth not to guarantee health care to all. We pay the highest prices for prescription drugs, we have a dysfunctional– child care system. We have a president who doesn’t even acknowledge the reality of climate change, let alone take on the fossil fuel industry. “
Bernie was also very supportive of A.O.C. in wiping out 25,000 Jobs and $24 billion in taxes over the next ten years.
Did Bernie forget that Amazon’s founder, chairman, and CEO Jeff Bezo’s is an Uber Lib billionaire and owner of the Washington Post.
“I was, and– but I was also supportive– (LAUGH) and– and maybe at the lead– of telling Amazon, owned by the wealthiest person in the world, that they cannot continue to pay their employees $9 or $10 or $11 an hour; they have to raise the minimum wage– their minimum wage to 11 bucks an hour, which as you’ll recall– happened. We did that with Disney– as well. What you have– and with a company like Amazon is– a very profitable company owned by the wealthiest guy in the world, who among other things we recently learned paid zero federal taxes. So you’re a worker out there, you’re makin’ 40,000 or 50,000 bucks a year. You pay more in taxes than Amazon did, that made billions of dollars in profit. And what I did not like about what they did to New York– that’s New York’s decision, not mine”
Useful idiots Liberal Billionaires like Gates, Zuckerburg, and Buffet might have cause for concern that their political leanings might not be enough to protect them.
Fox News had heard yesterday that Bernie was cutting a video.
To be fair, Sanders’ actual launch will get more fanfare. But why the collective yawn around news of his imminent candidacy? For one thing, presidential campaign announcements in 2019 are a dime a dozen. There are already nine declared Democratic candidates with many others waiting in the wings.
Including Bernie there are as of this date 11 democrats have announced their candidacy for President. Creepy Joe Biden who believes he’s the most qualified will likely announce soon.
But Bernie, you’re “white”, you’re “old”, you’re a Jew in name only, and you still refuse to call yourself a democrat, but be that as it may you have very successful in morphing the party of FDR and JFK into a Socialist, Green, Communist party.
Yes, a lot of Democrats have embraced Bernie’s dream to to turn America into a larger version of Venezuela.
Because they know what’s best for you and they will tell you exactly what you need wither you think so or not.
