A Measure of Wealth

How many gold bars per day can a man publicly dump into the sea

And yet have money left over to pay naval mercenaries to guard the site 24 by 7 by 365 so that no one ever raises that gold?

That is Wealth.

I sometimes wish

I sometimes wish I were a Christian, or a Russian

That I might openly weep at the beauty of Creation

And be accepted for it.

I sometimes wish

You are the past

You are not what humanity should be.

You are the past.

I am the future.

January 6 Insurrection Denial

Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., said there was no insurrection and that the House floor was not breached. Clyde said there was an "undisciplined mob" and "some rioters and some who committed acts of vandalism, but let me be clear: There was no insurrection."

"Watching the TV footage of those who entered the Capitol and walked through Statuary Hall, showed people in an orderly fashion staying between the stanchions and ropes taking videos and pictures. If you didn't know the TV footage was a video from Jan. 6, you would actually think it was a normal tourist visit," Clyde said at a May 12 House hearing.

Make Gun Dealing Despicable

Make Gun Dealing Despicable

Some would call a gun dealer a gun whore.

But not me.

As a member of the elite liberal class, I call him a firearms worker.
