"Civility," Jeb?
Time and time again, ladies and gentlemen, the naturalists themselves keep proving my political analyses to be entirely accurate.
What I am talking about?
Well, let me remind you of what I wrote in the article that was posted on Sunday morning, July 26, 2015, the Feast of Saint Anne and the Commemoration of the Ninth Sunday after Pentecost, after a considerable number of website related problems that are now resolved, thanks to expertise of the generous Catholic gentleman who maintains it for this technological ignoramus:
Moreover, even though a lot of pro-life organizations are going to make a good deal of money from fundraising in support of Congressional efforts to defund Planned Barrenhood, the simple reality is that such a defunding will not occur now or at any time in the future. Yes, you read that correctly.
That is, Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro, the man who has chosen not enforce and has actively violated the just laws of the United States of America to regulate immigration and whose Justice Department has refused to conduct any investigations of the cover-up of the Benghazi or Internal Revenue Service scandals (and whose "transparent" administration denies Freedom of Information requests regularly while monitoring journalists who publish leaked information that rightfully belongs in the public domain), is not going to sign any piece of legislation that is passed by both houses of the United States Congress that includes a provision to defund Planned Barrenhood, not that such legislation can muster the sixty votes necessary to secure passage in the United States Senate, that is, reality that would face a naturalist of the false opposite of the organized crime family of the "right" in the event that such a person wins the presidential election on Tuesday, November 8, 2016. No political party is going to control sixty seats in the United States Senate, and that reality must be faced squarely by those who seek, quite rightly, of course, to defund the evil enterprise that is Planned Barrenhood.
None of this means anything to those who want to believe in what I have long called the "political tooth fairy."
Oh, I can see it now.
The National-Not-So-Right-To-Life Committee's political action committee will produce postcards and send e-mails to elected, let us say for the sake of argument, Jeb Bush in order to defund Planned Barrenhood. What a farce. What an absolute and total farce. People are supposed to support Jeb Bush to "stop" Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose own thoroughly post-legal and amoral beliefs will be explored in the next article to appear on this site, even though Bush supports "Common Core" (see Common Core: From Luther To Mann To Bismarck To Obama), which includes explicit classroom instruction in matters pertaining to the Sixth and Ninth Commandments (an article that requires discretion given its graphic description of Common Core's requirements concerning the further propagation of impurity by breaking down the natural psychological resistance that children have to matters of martial privileges can be found at (Pedophilia, Incest, and Graphic Sex: Excerpts from Common Core.)
Any other bright ideas out there? Oy!
Well, here proof of the accuracy of what I posted two days ago now:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has never been a favorite of conservatives. Those who see him as a "squishy" compromiser more interested in placating President Barack Obama and K Street lobbyists than the Republican base had more fuel tossed on that fire when he blocked amendments to the Highway Bill Tea Party members wholeheartedly support.
One amendment would defund Planned Parenthood, the nationwide abortion provider which receives more than a half billion dollars in taxpayer subsidies annually. McConnell has previously said he supports defunding Planned Parenthood, which was recently the subject of undercover sting videos in which executives with the organization can be heard discussing the sale of organs from aborted babies. But the leader blocked an amendment to the Highway Bill that would have defunded the organization.
McConnell used a tactic called "filling the tree," made popular by Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid when he was majority leader to block Republicans from being able to offer amendments to Democratic bills. "Filling the Tree" is when the allotted time for amendments is loaded by the leader, generally with small, insignificant measures favored by the majority leader, who controls the process, crowding out everyone else.
"Filling the tree" was roundly decried by Republicans when Democrats controlled the Senate because it blocked their ability to offer any amendments, popular on a bipartisan basis or not, to any legislation the Senate was considering. McConnell ran and was reelected to his Senate seat on returning the Senate to "regular order" after years of tight control and power consolidation under the Democrats. Now he is using the same tactic against his own party.
On the floor of the Senate Friday, Texas Sen. and GOP candidate for president Ted Cruz blasted McConnell's move. "There are a host of amendments that the American people are focused on, things like defunding Planned Parenthood after the gruesome video," Cruz said. "The majority leader doesn't want to vote on that. That's actually something the American people are focused on."
In response to critics, McConnell agreed to "fast-track" a stand-alone bill that would defund Planned Parenthood. But a stand-alone bill would be subject to filibuster, requiring 60 votes to proceed, rather than as an amendment that would only need 50 to be included in the Highway Bill.
According to The Hill, McConnell ruled the Planned Parenthood amendment not germane to the Highway Bill and that's why it was blocked.
McConnell apparently made the same determination for "Kate's Law." Named after Kate Steinle, a 32-year-old woman who was allegedly shot and killed by an illegal alien who had seven felony convictions and had been deported five times in San Francisco, it would impose a mandatory five-year prison term on any illegal alien convicted of a violent felony if they'd been previously deported.
McConnell blocked that too.
An amendment the majority leader did not block, that he did not rule as "not germane," was the reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank.
The Export-Import Bank, which McConnell publicly claims to oppose, is viewed by conservatives as corporate welfare and crony capitalism at its worst. Supposedly to help small businesses compete in a global market, the bank favors large and even foreign companies with taxpayer dollars.
Cloture was invoked by the Senate on the amendment to reauthorization of the Export-Import Bank by a vote of 67-26 Sunday.
Authorization for the bank expired in June, and an enormous, expensive lobbying effort has been underway to reauthorize it.
In an attempt to placate conservatives, McConnell instead is allowing a vote on an amendment to defund Obamacare. But that amendment would need 60 votes, which is unlikely, and would most certainly get the bill a presidential veto.

Not enough proof for you?
You mean that Addison Mitchell McConnell's smug efforts to keep any "controversial" bill from angering "moderate" voters in "swing" states doesn't mean anything, that this recently-minded Senate Majority Leader is just an "aberration" of some kind?
Here's proof to the contrary so that you can be disabused of that mythical notion rather readily:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says there's not much Congress can do in the wake of the ruling by the Supreme Court legalizing gay marriage.
In an interview Tuesday night on Kentucky television station WDRB, McConnell restated that he still holds to the traditional view of marriage.
"I've always felt that marriage is between one man and one woman and the Supreme Court has held otherwise. That's the law of the land," the Kentucky Republican said.
When he was asked if there is anything Congress can do, he answered: "I don't think so. I think the courts have pretty well spoken."
However, McConnell said he is now concerned about "the potential problems with regard to religious liberty."
There are number of institutions, which in practicing their religion, may run up against this," which he predicts will result "in a lot of additional litigation, as this decision is weighed against the strongly held religious beliefs of a number of Americans."
The Senate leader said that lawmakers will be looking to see "if religious liberty needs to be enhanced by statute."
Following the Supreme Court decisions on gay marriage and Obamacare, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said that he is proposing a constitutional amendment subjecting Supreme Court justices "to periodic judicial-retention elections."
But McConnell said "it isn't going to pass ... we've only done that 27 times in the history of our country." (Mitch McConnell: Gay Marriage Is ' Law of the Land.)
"The law of the land."
Remember that phrase as it will play a very important part in the next article to be posted on this site.
Addison Mitchell McConnell is concerned about one thing: raw political power and its retention. Nothing else. He is Harry Reid with a Kentucky drawl.
Still not enough proof for you?
What can I tell you?
Really, what can I tell you.
Addison Mitchell McConnell has company in the person of the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Representative John Boehner (R-West Chester, Ohio):
(CNSNews.com) – House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) would not say today whether the Republican-majority House will allow federal funding of Planned Parenthood in fiscal 2016, which starts on Oct. 1.
During his Capitol Hill press conference on Thursday, CNSNews.com asked Boehner: "By September 30, the House needs to pass a bill to fund HHS for fiscal year 2016. Will that law--whether it's a stand-alone appropriations or a CR--fund Planned Parenthood?"
Boehner said: "Listen, the Planned Parenthood issue is under review of two of our committees."
Listen, I've seen these two videos," Boehner continued. "They're gruesome, and I think they're awful," in reference to two undercover videos released by the Center for Medical Progress that appear to show Planned Parenthood officials negotiating over the transfer of tissue and organs from aborted babies.
"That's why the Energy and Commerce Committee and the Judiciary Committee are doing an investigation," said Boehner. "I expect we will have hearings, and the more we learn, the more it will educate our decisions in the future."
A moment later during the press conference another reporter asked, "Are you going to use the appropriations process to gut Planned Parenthood?"
Boehner responded, "There is an investigation under way, and I expect there will be hearings. And as that process develops, we'll make decisions based on -- based on the facts. But let's get the facts first."
According to its most recent financial report, for 2013-14, Planned Parenthood received $528.4 million in government funding (grants and reimbursements) in 2014. In fiscal 2013, the organization performed 327,653 abortions, the report said.
If Congress included language in the law funding HHS, or in a continuing resolution funding numerous government agencies, that prohibited federal funding from going to Planned Parenthood, the administration could not give federal funds to Planned Parenthood. Ultimately, Planned Parenthood cannot receive federal funding in fiscal 2016 unless the House of Representatives agrees to allow it. (Boehner Won't Say That GOP House Will Defund Planned Parenthood.)
It might be gauche and very self-serving to say "I told you so."
However, one does not need to have a doctorate in political science as I do to simply see reality for it what it is. I find it truly astounding that otherwise intelligent people believe that the careerists of the organized crime family of the false opposite of the naturalist "right" will actually permit men such as United States Senators Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who is a complete Zionist, or Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) to challenge their schemes to reward their corporate bankrollers and their lobbyist pals who write the fat checks for their elections and who make it possible for the to enjoy the perquisites, power, and influence.
Yet it is that even some of those who read this site regularly believe that "something" is going to "get done" if only we put the "right" (emphasis on "right"—as in the false opposite of the naturalist "left") kind of naturalist in the White House.
Well, the man who is likely to be the nominee of the organized crime family of the naturalist "right," former Governor of Florida Jeb Bush, the son of former President George Herbert Walker Bush and the brother of former President George Walker Bush and the father of State of Texas Land Commissioner George Prescott Bush, is calling for "civility" from his Republican competitors for the Republican Party presidential nomination next year, having in mind the aforementioned Senator Cruz and former Governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee, who is even more of a Zionist than Cruz:
LONGWOOD, Fla. — The first Republican presidential debate is just over a week away, but one could have easily concluded on Monday that Jeb Bush was sounding out themes for a face-off against Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Mr. Bush, the former governor of Florida, memorably said last year that a Republican candidate had to be willing to lose the primary to win the general election. And over a day of campaigning in the Orlando area, he often sounded as if he were keynoting a centrist think-tank seminar about how to overcome political polarization more than a Republican attempting to win over conservatives.
"We need men and women of good will forging consensus, starting to solve problems, kind of building back the muscles of consensus, compromise and solution-finding to fix these things," Mr. Bush told a group of businesspeople here, lamenting what he called a paralyzed democracy. "Apparently that is dangerous in a Republican primary," he added, "but it's what I believe."
The overriding issue facing the next president, Mr. Bush argued, is finding "a way to reweave the web of civility" before progress on substantive issues can be made. "That is going to be first, second, third, fourth priority because everything falls into place once you get that done," he said at a pastors' luncheon.
is call for high-mindedness had an implicit target: Donald J. Trump, whose harsh words about Mexican immigrants, Senator John McCain, and rival candidates including Mr. Bush himself have not impeded his rise to the top of Republican polls.
But Mr. Bush's presence on some of the hardest-fought terrain in the country's pre-eminent swing state, also made a statement: The Florida primary in March may well prove crucial, but he is eyeing a broader constituency.
Speaking before a racially diverse group of pastors, Mr. Bush recounted his electoral strength among Hispanics as governor and mocked the idea of "outreach," an oft-used term in Republican politics to describe appealing to minorities, as something that sounded too peripheral for his taste.
"I cannot imagine having the same kind of numbers that Republican candidates have had in past presidential elections," Mr. Bush. "I'm pretty confident that we can do better."
That was not his only implicit jab at previous Republican standard-bearers. At the pastors' luncheon, he invoked Mitt Romney's formulation about how to confront immigration. "The idea of self-deportation or rounding people up is not an American value," he said.
fterward, he reproached former Gov. Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, who over the weekend invoked the Holocaust to attack President Obama over the Iran nuclear agreement, saying it would march Israelis "to the door of the oven."
"The use of that kind of language is just wrong," Mr. Bush told reporters. "This is not the way we're going to win elections, and that's not how we're going to solve problems."
Later, taking questions from the business group, came a more subtle, but just as revealing, correction of Mr. Trump and his alarmism about Mexican immigrants. The central difficulty America has now with the southern border, Mr. Bush noted, is in how to control migration from Central America — not Mexico.
"When Trump goes to the border and says all this stuff," Mr. Bush said, trailing off with evident weariness. "The flow of immigrants into our country is dramatically different now," he explained.
At every stop Monday, Mr. Bush had a barely-veiled message for voters about his foil: I am not Trump, or some other resentment-driven politician.
Or, as Mr. Bush put it: "I'm not a grievance candidate."
Concluding his day before a largely white crowd in Maitland, he said it even more directly: "We shouldn't be scolding people, we shouldn't say outrageous things that turn people off to the conservative message. Our message is the one of hope and opportunity for everybody." (Jabbing at Republican Rivals, Jeb Bush Calls for Civility.)
Query, Governor Bush.
What is "civil" about Planned Barrenhood's butchery?
What is "civil" about the daily systematic slaughter of the innocent preborn in any of this country's killing centers as innocent human beings in their mothers' wombs are sucked apart from a vacuum machine twenty-nine times more power than the home vacuum cleaner or burned alive by saline solutions or dissected and removed piece by piece in the birth canal or partially removed from the birth canal to have their skulls crushed?
What is "civil" about a supposed "doctor" performing a Caesarian-section on a woman to go inside her womb to twist her baby's neck until he is dead? (This is called a "hysterotomy," something that has been explained on this time in many other articles.)
What is "civil" about the daily vivisection of living human beings who are deemed to be "brain dead," including the death sentence that has now been pronounced upon a twenty-year old college student name Aden in Reno, Nevada:
Aden is a 20-year-old college student who had abdominal pain on April 1, 2015. Exploratory surgery was done; her normal appendix was removed after finding no disease in her abdomen. As the surgery was ending, Aden's blood pressure and heart rate went down. Since then Aden has not awakened. She has been declared "brain dead." The doctors have related this to lack of oxygen. Aden continues to live on a ventilator with nutrition in a vein. See: http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/byrne/150706
An apnea test did nothing to help Aden. Fanuel, father and Guardian of Aden, directed not to do an apnea test. Nevertheless, it was done. This caused carbon dioxide and acids in Aden to go very high. This test was not good for Aden. When the doctors did not observe Aden taking in a breath, the doctors declared that Aden was "brain dead." Once that declaration of "brain death" was made, which in most states is considered a legal definition of death, the family was told that treatment and care would be discontinued. Aden's father needed to go to court to fight for necessary treatment and care for his daughter.
Aden has many signs of being alive, although the doctors have been declaring that Aden is "brain dead" since the middle of April. Laboratory tests show that Aden suffers from hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) at least since her hospitalization. Aden's father has been requesting for weeks that thyroid medication be given to Aden. Aden, like every person needs thyroid hormone to heal and to be healthy. The treating doctors have ignored these requests. Aden needs life-saving and life-preserving thyroid hormone. Attempting to restore normal levels of thyroid hormone is unlikely to harm Aden, but it cannot help her unless doctors are willing to try. Aden is not truly dead.
Like all patients on a ventilator for a prolonged period, Aden needs and has needed a tracheostomy since April 15. Also Aden needs complete nutrition, not just intravenous. For this, Aden needs a feeding tube or a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube to provide nutrition through her stomach. My testimony in court was that Aden is not truly dead. Aden needs thyroid medication, a tracheostomy and a PEG tube.
On July 3, the Court and hospital administrator agreed to allow physician(s) licensed in Nevada, to evaluate Aden. A doctor on the Medical Staff of the Reno hospital agreed to evaluate Aden. This consulting physician believes Aden's status to be grim; her chance of continued survival and awakening from her current state is a long shot but not zero. An ENT physician in Las Vegas (450 miles from Reno) came forward voluntarily to treat Aden but she would have to be transported to Las Vegas with an endotracheal tube, since doctors in Reno would not do the tracheostomy. Tracheostomy before transport would facilitate transfer and later treatment and care in a long-term care facility or her home.
Aden's family is extremely grateful to the Nevada doctors who came forward to treat Aden. At least the entire medical community did not turn their back to Aden. The doctors treating Aden have declared that Aden is "brain dead." Their testimony in court convinced the judge that criteria for "brain death" were fulfilled. The judge determined that my recommendation for thyroid hormone was insufficiently supported and theoretical. Aden has very low amounts of thyroid hormone. The brain (hypothalamus) makes Thyroid Stimulating Hormone" (TSH). TSH has a very short half-life and has been measured in the circulation of Aden. This test demonstrated that Aden's hypothalamus is alive and receiving enough circulation to remain alive to produce TSH. In addition, body temperature is also maintained by hypothalamus. Therefore, if body temperature is maintained without heating blankets, the hypothalamus is alive. If the hypothalamus is alive and receiving enough blood supply to remain alive and working to produce TSH and maintain body temperature, although no signs of intracranial circulation can be detected by any current test for circulation to the brain, then other parts of the brain may also be alive and receiving enough blood supply to remain alive (despite no signs of intracranial circulation being detected by any current confirmatory test for "brain death"). Those other parts of the brain may be only functionally silent but not irreversibly damaged. But, they may need higher levels of thyroid hormones to heal and have a chance to resume activity. The whole brain needs thyroid hormones to resolve swelling, resume normal intracranial pressure and thereby resume normal circulation and function. Why will the doctors not treat a documented, treatable condition and give Aden the best possible chance to continue to live and hopefully recover?
An Ear Nose Throat (ENT) physician testified by phone that Aden needs a tracheostomy. Judge stated that she was taken back by the level of his confidence to do a tracheostomy without having reviewed the medical record. The ENT doctor knew that Aden has had an endotracheal tube since April 1. The ENT physician knows that a tracheostomy should have been done 10-15 days after being on an endotracheal tube. Of course review of the medical record, if there had been sufficient time for his review before the scheduled Court time, would have been desirable, but could personal review of the medical record change the recommendation of a knowledgeable experienced ENT physician regarding the indication to do a tracheostomy?
The judge determined that continued treatment of Aden was not in Aden's "best interests" and life support is to be removed in 10 days. How can it be in the best interest of Aden, a 20 year old college student, to have her life snuffed out by removing her life support without giving her thyroid hormone, adequate support of respiration and full nutrition?
To appeal the ruling is very costly; as Fanuel, father of Aden, said, "I have very little compared to the large amount of money it would take to appeal." So what else can we do? Pray for all involved. (Judge Rules: Stop Life Support.)
Please pray for Aden and her family now. Pray very hard for them that she can be spared from the modern Aztecs who vivisect living human beings to use their "spare parts" to be offered up to the "gods" of "vital organ donation" so that the "gift of life may be given" by means of killing a living human being with a beating heart.
What is "civil," Governor Bush, about all of this?
What is the difference between Planned Barrenhood's vivisection of living human beings in their mothers' wombs and the daily vivisection of living human beings to feed the vast international market for "body parts"?
"Civility," Governor Bush?
"Civility"?
What is "civil" about the direct, intentional killing of an innocent human being at any stage of his life, starting with his conception in his mother's womb until the time of his natural death willed by God Himself?
Lest anyone contend that the man who might become, in effect, "President Bush III" would support the defunding of Planned Barrenhood, whose very rotten business, which began and is centered upon a denial of the Sovereignty of God over the sanctity and fecundity of marriage, was the subject of Planned Barrenhood: Evil From Its Very Inceptions, the former Florida governor has simply called for an "investigation" of Planned Barrenhood, stopping short of calling for its defunding:
It just troubles me that you would sell body parts. It just makes no sense to me," Bush said after visiting the Crisis Pregnancy Center here. "That is not a compassionate situation. Congress has every right to investigate these abuses, because [Planned Parenthood] receives $500 million dollars from the federal government."
Bush also promised to review federal spending if elected president but stopped short of calling for Planned Parenthood or any specific organization's federal funding to be cut.
There should be a thorough review of spending in Washington, D.C., particularly organizations that have a very deep political agenda," he said.
Until his comments Wednesday, the former Florida governor had only issued a tweet about the video — released by an anti-abortion watchdog group — calling it "a shocking and horrific reminder that we must do so much more to foster a culture of life in America."
Many GOP presidential hopefuls have gone further. Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has pledged to completely de-fund Planned Parenthood; Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal have already launched investigations in their home states.

The Honorable Carolyn B. Maloney
Dear Ms. Maloney:
Thank you for your letter to President Bush to request his views on access to birth control. The President has asked that I respond on his behalf. This Administration supports the availability of safe and effective products and services to assist responsible adults in making decisions about preventing or delaying conception.
The Department of Health and Human Services faithfully executes laws establishing Federal programs to provide contraception and family planning services. The Title X Family Planning Program and Medicaid are each significant providers of family planning services.
Additionally, this Administration strongly supports teaching abstinence to young people as the only 100 percent effective means of preventing pregnancy, HIV, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
I will provide this response to the other signatories of your letter.
Sincerely yours, John O. Agwunobi, Assistant Secretary for Health (Bush Supports Contraception Letter)
Contraception, of course, of its very evil nature, over and above the fact that most contraceptives serve as abortifacients that kill babies chemically or act to expel fertilized human beings from implanting in the uterus, is denial of the Sovereignty of God over the sanctity and fecundity of marriage.
There has been nothing "civil" about Planned Barrenhood from the time that Margaret Sanger started the Birth Control League a century ago now. Nothing. Not a thing. And yet it is that Jeb Bush, who is a Catholic, wants "civility." Go tell that to the victims of the Planned Barrenhood's butchery.
Jeb Bush is simply unwilling to admit that Planned Barrenhood is evil of its nature, and he also cannot admit that contraception is morally wrong. He is also unwilling to state that no one who supports a single, solitary abortion, whether chemical or surgical, under any circumstances if fit to hold any public office, whether elected or appointed?
Yet it is that baby-killing is Planned Barrenhood's principal business:
(CNSNews.com) – Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider, performed 327,653 abortions in one year, according to the latest data published in its 2013-2014 report.
From Oct. 1, 2012 to Sept. 30, 2013, Planned Parenthood performed 327,653 abortions. Over the course of those 365 days (or 8,760 hours), that averages out to 898 abortions per day and 37 abortions per hour.
Planned Parenthood has come under increased scrutiny recently after a video surfaced showing its senior director of medical services, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, discussing the harvesting of baby body parts.
lanned Parenthood spokesman Eric Ferrero defended the practice, saying "we help patients who want to donate tissue for scientific research, and we do this just like every other high-quality health care provider does – with full, appropriate consent from patients and under the highest ethical and legal standards.
(Screen capture from Planned Parenthood 2013-2014 report)
"In some instances, actual costs, such as the cost to transport tissue to leading research centers, are reimbursed, which is standard across the medical field," Ferroro said in a statement.
Three Republican-led congressional committees plan to hold hearings on the matter, and several members of Congress, as well as GOP presidential candidates, have called for Planned Parenthood to be defunded.
House Speaker John Boehner has also called on President Barack Obama to condemn and end the practice. (Planned Parenthood: We Did 327,653 Abortions in One Year.)
Jeb Bush plainly does not believe in these words Silvio Cardinal Antoniano that were written in the Sixteenth Century and quoted by Pope Pius XI in Divini Illius Magistri, December 30, 1929:
The more closely the temporal power of a nation aligns itself with the spiritual, and the more it fosters and promotes the latter, by so much the more it contributes to the conservation of the commonwealth. For it is the aim of the ecclesiastical authority by the use of spiritual means, to form good Christians in accordance with its own particular end and object; and in doing this it helps at the same time to form good citizens, and prepares them to meet their obligations as members of a civil society. This follows of necessity because in the City of God, the Holy Roman Catholic Church, a good citizen and an upright man are absolutely one and the same thing. How grave therefore is the error of those who separate things so closely united, and who think that they can produce good citizens by ways and methods other than those which make for the formation of good Christians. For, let human prudence say what it likes and reason as it pleases, it is impossible to produce true temporal peace and tranquillity by things repugnant or opposed to the peace and happiness of eternity. (Silvio Cardinal Antoniano, as quoted by Pope Pius XI in Divini Illius Magistri, December 31, 1929.)
"Civility" at a time when the incumbent president of the United States of America, Barack Hussein Obama/Barry Soetoro, and his minions, including Attorney General Loretta Lynch, are seeking to, in effect, criminalize all opposition to his policies, which he believes are beyond any question whatsoever?
"Civility" when the serial-liar named Hillary Rodham Clinton is calling for an endto the "attacks" on Planned Barrenhood? She is unabashed in her support of moral evils. The likes of Jeb Bush just want to be "civil" in the face of moral evils."
Although there will Congressional investigations of Planned Barrenhood in a few months, those will take place after Jorge Mario Bergoglio's speech to a joint session of the United States Congress on Thursday, September 24, 2015, the Feast of Our Lady of Ransom.
Efforts to defund Planned Barrenhood will be overshadowed, however, by Jorge's calls for "universal, single payer health care," an end to the death penalty, the "protection" of the planet by means of drastically reducing the "carbon footprint" and greenhouse gas emissions, and for the immediate integration of all those who seek to enter the country illegally.
Well, let me close on a most "uncivil" note by quoting Pope Pius XI's concise description of what happens to those in public life at their Particular Judgment after having supported the slaughter of the innocent preborn in life:
Those who hold the reins of government should not forget that it is the duty of public authority by appropriate laws and sanctions to defend the lives of the innocent, and this all the more so since those whose lives are endangered and assailed cannot defend themselves. Among whom we must mention in the first place infants hidden in the mother's womb. And if the public magistrates not only do not defend them, but by their laws and ordinances betray them to death at the hands of doctors or of others, let them remember that God is the Judge and Avenger of innocent blood which cried from earth to Heaven. (Pope Pius XI, Casti Connubii, December 30, 1930.)
As bad as things are now, they will only get worse and worse. They have gotten worse in the past forty-five years since the wellsprings of a superabundance of Sanctifying and Actual Graces began to dry up after the institutionalization of the Protestant and Judeo-Masonic Novus Ordo liturgical service on Sunday, November 30, 1969 (see Nothing New Under Jorge's Sun).
The downward spiral, though, was over four centuries in the making, longer yet if one considers how certain elements of the Renaissance helped to undermine the integrity of Faith and Morals in various intellectual and artistic circles in the century before the rise of Martin Luther.
This is a time of profound chastisement.
As should be abundantly clear by now, the false opposite of the naturalist "right" is not going to restore even a rudimentary adherence to the rule of law under the terms of the Constitution of the United States of America, no less to the binding precepts of the Divine Positive Law and the Natural Law. And putative "pope" in the Casa Santa Marta actually celebrates the rot of popular culture as he promotes a "theology of encounter" with his fellow minions of the devil.
We do not, however, despair.
We are Catholics.
We trust in the motherly care of Our Lady, Who promised us in the Cova da Iria near Fatima, Portugal, that her Fatima Message will triumph in the end, which is why we must truly persevere in our prayers for the restoration of a true pope on the Throne of Saint Peter so that he can fulfill Our Lady's own request, made to Sister Lucia dos Santos in 1925, for the collegial consecration of Russia to her Immaculate Heart.
Oh, is there someone out there who does not believe that we are suffering from the errors of Russia in this time of apostasy and betrayal, this time when the Throne of Saint Peter is in chains?
We just need to keep close to her, especially through her Most Holy Rosary as the consecrated slaves of her Divine Son through her own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, as we seek to make reparation for our sins and those of the whole world.
Viva La Virgen de Guadalupe!
Immaculate Heart of Mary, triumph soon!
Our Lady of Fartima and of the Holy Rosary, pray for us.
Saints Joachim and Anne, pray for us
Saints Nazarius, Celsus, Victor, and Innocent, pray for us.

Still from the first video, posted below.
Tucker Carlson Tonight (TCT) had an exclusive interview with President of the United States (POTUS) Donald J. Trump that was aired on 7.1.2019. It covered foreign and domestic affairs. It included concerns over antitrust or monopolistic related issues, but also on the growing problems of homelessness in America.
The first segment of part two of that interview begins with questions about the power of big tech over the marketplace. From that, is this POTUS Trump pull-quote: "A lot of people want us to take [federal antitrust, other legal] action against Facebook, Twitter and frankly against Amazon."
When asked by Carlson if the Trump Administration will take action, the 45th president demurred, saying "I can't say," meaning he is not able to comment.
About halfway through this video below on right-of-center Fox News, Carlson pivots to a comparison of the cleanliness of Japanese cities compared to many in the United States.
Carlson named New York City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles as examples of cities with a homeless problem. These are among the places that MHProNews and our sister site have reported on or mentioned previously.
The president said, "Its disgraceful…We are looking at it very seriously. You can't do that," meaning allow such problems to occur.
The president said that people and police officers are getting sick just from walking the streets were human waste and other troubling issues are occurring routinely, as was dramatically documented in the viral "Seattle is Dying" video report.

"…You can't do that, you can't ruin our cities," the president told Carlson. He said it is the "liberal Establishment" that runs those cities. "It's a terrible thing that is taking place."
The president said that shortly after he took office, that he addressed similar issues that were occurring in "certain places in Washington, D.C. where that was starting to happen."
POTUS Trump said he ended it "very quickly" because you can't have world leaders coming and witnessing that in the nation's capital.
After putting it in the context of the prior beauty of San Francisco, where Trump branded companies have business interests, he said, "We are looking at that very seriously."
"Do these governors or mayors" where these troubling issues are occurring "really think this is a positive?" rhetorically asked the president. He said the problems with homelessness wasn't okay, and "It's destroying a whole way of life."
The first part of the same interview is posted below. It dealt more with trade and foreign affairs.
How Does This Homeless Issue Relate to Affordable Housing, and Manufactured Homes?
That too is a rhetorical question, because the connection should be obvious. The recent White House announcement of an executive order that established a council to address the barriers to affordable housing is arguably a predicate to whatever the Trump Administration is preparing to do.

Stubborn, unemployed actor Michael Dorsey (Hoffman) disguises himself as a woman named Dorothy Michaels to secure a part on a soap opera. As his popularity on TV mounts, his love life becomes increasingly soap operatic. Hoffman is delightful, as is the rest of the stellar cast, especially Lange as the cast member he falls in love with. Debut of Davis; Murray's performance unbilled. Director Pollack plays Michael's put-upon agent, George Fields.

White House Announces Conference On Hunger, Nutrition And Health
By Joji Xavier ✉ | Published: 5/4/2022 10:52 AM ET
President Joe Biden has announced that for the first time in more than 50 years, the White House will host a Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health.
The Conference, to be held in September, and the preparatory work leading up to it, will accelerate progress and drive significant change to end hunger, improve nutrition and physical activity, reduce diet-related disease, and close the disparities around them, the White House said.
The Biden Administration has set a goal of ending hunger and increasing healthy eating and physical activity in the U.S. by 2030 so that fewer Americans experience diet-related diseases, such as diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. The Conference will galvanize action by anti-hunger and nutrition advocates; food companies; the health care community; local, state, territorial and Tribal governments, and will launch a national plan outlining how to achieve this goal.
"Hunger, diet-related disease, and the disparities surrounding them impact millions of Americans, and the COVID-19 pandemic put a spotlight on the urgency of addressing these issues," Domestic Policy Advisor Ambassador Susan E. Rice said. "No one should have to wonder where their next meal will come from. We must take bold steps now—with government, the private sector, non-profits, and communities working together—to build a healthier future for every American," she added.
The first White House Conference on Food, Nutrition and Health in 1969 was a pivotal event that influenced the country's food policy agenda for the next 50 years. The President sets out to do the same with this year's Conference.
Leading up to the Conference, the Biden Administration will host listening sessions including every region of the country.
Anyone with ideas will be able to share their stories to help inform the national plan.

Need makeup help? Call Beauty Express 911.
New business aids individuals, weddings, events, etc.
by: Wayne Grant Real Estate Editor
If a 14-year-old tells you that you look cool, you know you've accomplished something. That was the sentiment expressed by Nicole Figueroa when her daughter, Kiyah, complimented her after her makeup was done at Beauty Express 911, a new Ormond Beach business.
"I look hip!" Figueroa laughed, after her daughter approved of her appearance.
"As you mature, you need to change your makeup. You want to look youthful but not like you're trying to look youthful."
Carole Girman, owner, Beauty Express 911
Owner Carole Girman said she now has her dream job at her studio in the Offices at Oak Park, 595 N. Nova Road, Suite G109, applying makeup and teaching the techniques.
"This is what I've always wanted to do," she said. "I put on a little color and their confidence level goes through the roof. It's just phenomenal. That's what it's all about — making women feel good about themselves as they age."
Girman also does make-up for wedding parties, fashion shoots or other special occasions, saying the "911" in the name relates to the panic women can feel when a big event is approaching.
Learning the latest
Girman has 25 years of experience in beauty and makeup, mostly working in salons while also freelancing for weddings, events, etc. For the last three years, she worked for QVC, demonstrating a product line throughout the country.
"Women were constantly asking if they could take me home, so I could do their makeup the next day," Girman said. "I thought there should be a place where women feel comfortable learning."
She has no products to sell, so her clients don't have any pressure to buy.
Future Workshops
Carole Girman hopes to do makeup workshops, such as for young girls going from junior high to high school. She is currently involved with Look Good, Feel Better, seminars sponsored by the American Cancer Society to help women undergoing cancer treatment with skin care and makeup.
She said many of her customers want to learn how to apply the newest trend, such as a "cat-eye" or "contour." There's a lot on YouTube, and many published articles, she said, but they are often time-consuming and intimidating. She said it doesn't have to be complicated and makeup can be applied in five minutes.
Makeup needs change as a woman gets older, she said.
"As you mature, you need to change your makeup," she said. "You want to look youthful but not like you're trying to look youthful."
Figueroa said she had known Girman for 12 years, and had her do the makeup for her wedding. She drove over from Orange City for the recent makeup session.
"It's worth the trip," she said.
Girman hopes to do workshops, such as for young girls going from junior high to high school.
She is currently involved with the Look Good, Feel Better, seminars sponsored by the American Cancer Society to help women undergoing cancer treatment with skin care and makeup. She recently teamed with Lisa Konietzky, an esthetician, who also has an office in Oak Park, to conduct one of the seminars at a local hospital.
Beauty Express 911 is open Monday through Saturday by appointment. Contact Girman at 212-7791 or [email protected].

For the moment, set aside the actual prospects for a negotiated deal that would end the West's standoff with Iran over its nuclear program. Such a deal, no matter its contours, will almost certainly face opposition from Capitol Hill. Look no further than the bipartisan (tri-partisan?) letter signed by six Senators demanding a negotiated outcome with zero domestic Iranian enrichment, which is their proposed precondition for the negotiations — and almost certainly a deal-breaker for the Iranians.
For a glimpse into this view, particularly in terms of staunch pro-Israel Democrats, read what the archetype of this group, outgoing chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee California Rep. Howard Berman, has to say. Berman gave an interesting interview to the Israeli daily Haaretz where, at times getting combative (literally), he reveals some of the thinking behind the even timid support of U.S. President Barack Obama's Iran policy.
By and large, I think that to have a war with a billion Muslims is not a viable policy. We have to engage with the forces of modernity in the Muslim world. We have to separate moderates from extremists, and engagement that is designed to achieve that makes compelling sense to me.
The "separate" stuff is pure imperial divide-and-conquer strategy. For many of the hardline pro-Israel types, the idea that U.S. policy plays any role in creating enmity toward the U.S. is sacrilegious. In their view the U.S. must, therefore, consolidate its supporters, rather than alleviate legitimate grievances among those who don't. And the qualifier "by and large," which means "generally," is troubling: it implies there could be specific situations where going to "war with a billion Muslims" would conceivably be sound policy.
Israeli politicians are wondering why the U.S. administration took the military option off the table, even if they didn't say so explicitly.
The military option is not off the table. It's on the table.
The Iranians apparently don't think so.
Who knows what they really think?
We don't know if the current strategy is going to work. We do know that two years ago we had the most limited, worthless set of multilateral sanctions on Iran that were not enforced, and all the U.S. efforts to make them stronger were to no avail. And the U.S. position on Iran was not the international position, the U.S. was isolated and everyone wrote that Iran is rising in influence.
Two years later we have tough sanctions at the Security Council, and the U.S. and Europeans imposed more far-reaching sanctions. We have evidence it's causing pain in Tehran inside the regime, Iran feels the pressure and is isolated, and the U.S. position as a result of this administration's policies has developed international support.
What we don't know yet is if it will change the regime's behavior on the nuclear issue. But we are in a much better position to create that change than we were two years ago. And we need to stay very resolved on this, we need to impose sanctions on companies that are undermining our efforts, and we need to build even more international support. This is an example of this administration's effective use of diplomacy.
If, as administration officials insist, sanctions are a "means rather than an end," we need to define that end far more clearly. If it is stopping Iran's nuclear program, then let's be clear: sanctions may be slowing that program down, but by themselves they will not compel Iran's leaders to comply with the International Atomic Energy Commission or the UN Security Council. To get the attention of Iran's current leaders, we must decide whether the goal of sanctions (or for that matter, engagement) is to set the stage for war or for sustained peace negotiations.
Clearly for Berman, sanctions — including diplomacy aimed at more rigid sanctions — are an end in and of themselves, though they could be the prelude to something far more daunting: the prospect of war with Iran. Most experts, including Brumberg and Blechman, agree that sanctions and isolation are unlikely to end the nuclear impasse with Iran. The only way to do that, one might surmise, is a negotiated deal, which will require concessions that we can be sure Congressional Iran hawks will balk at.
Berman's perspective only lends credibility to those critics who questioned whether engagement was ever earnestly tried by the Obama administration. If the Obama foreign policy is based on Berman's line, it's likely those critics correctly analyzed the administration's position.


No more uneven manholes in Hyderabad?
"The work of reconstruction of two manholes under the new technology will be completed on Sunday. Barricades will also be put up near the manholes, as a precautionary measure," said a water board official."The cost of bucket concrete mixer to fix each manhole is Rs 15,000," said a water board official. M Dana Kishore, MD of HMWS&SB MD, is inspecting the work at the site," said G Saritha, deputy GM, HMWS&SB ( Somajiguda section). HYDERABAD: Most commuters, at some point of time or the other, have run into manholes jutting out of the road or those that lie a few inches below the road level. Such manholes pose a risk for commuters and pedestrians.

In my never-ending effort to have a year-ful of seasonal decorations (all hand-made by me), I am finally feeling like it is time to recognize summer. My last day of school is tomorrow and I am THRILLED--ready for some relaxation and a whole lot of nothin'.
So, to celebrate...I used these banner shapes from Unique Laser Designs. I covered them with patterned paper (from Close to My Heart) and added burlap letters, a vellum die-cut doily shape, and more wood summer shapes all from Unique Laser Designs.
I colored the shapes (the cute bee, flowers, stars, ladybug, and watering can) with Copic markers. I LOVE how the natural color of the wood softens the colors from the markers so that you get a subtle intensity.
For these daisies below, I covered them in white ink and then dipped them in UTEE a couple times to get an extra-thick shine. I added clear buttons and white twine and I think they just scream SUMMER!
So, what are you screaming now that summer is finally arriving?
How about, "Can I have more crafty time please?!"
Don't forget, Unique Laser Designs is looking for their next design team---it could include YOU!
