(from https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/trump-calls-london-mayor-stone-cold-loser-start-u-k-n1013066
". . . “It’s so un-British to be rolling out the red carpet this week for a formal state visit for a president whose divisive behaviour flies in the face of the ideals America was founded upon — equality, liberty and religious freedom,” wrote Khan (Mayor of London Sadiq Khan), who is the son of a Pakistani bus driver. . . At what point should we stop appeasing — and implicitly condoning — his far-right policies and views? Where do we draw the line?" he continued.". . . "

View . . .

. . . from the vantage point of the Mueller report . . .



(from https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/mueller-report-reveals-sarah-sanders-lied-trump-it-s-time-ncna996181)

". . . if we cannot trust (Sarah Huckabee) Sanders to tell us the truth about things like the firing of the FBI director, how can we trust her when she’s briefing the American people about a school shooting or a hurricane or an adversarial foreign power’s efforts to undermine our elections? Why should any reporter believe any statement she gives ever again? . . . Sanders isn’t the White House press secretary as much as she is America’s main minister of propaganda. Make no mistake about it, Sanders isn’t a “complicit” bystander to the “porn star presidency,” she is a partner in it. . ."

Perspective . . .

. . . "The only thing you sometimes have control over is perspective. You don't have control over your situation. But you have a choice about how you view it. "  -Chris Pine  (https://www.brainyquote.com/topics/perspective)


(https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/aug/04/donald-trump-pennsylvania-rally-supporters)

". . . As they see it, Trump is cutting their taxes. He’s keeping out the immigrants. He’s putting foreign leaders in their place, all while fulfilling that oft-quoted campaign promise: winning. . . “The tax reform,” DeFranco said when asked what she was most impressed with. . . “I’m going to end up with like $300 extra this year because of what he’s done. . . “Look at what he’s done with North Korea,” she said. “I think his negotiation skills are very good.”. . ."

Vantage . . .

The leaves are shaking, turning, rustling, falling
Blanketing all the horizontal real estate in view
Indicating the onset of a new season

The sun will be setting earlier
And the opportunities to comfortably enjoy the outdoors
Will soon be much fewer

But the change possesses its own unique beauty
And from this wonderful vantage point,
Who am I to complain?

A Different . . .

. . . point of view. . .


(from Robyn Morton https://medium.com/@Lookingforrobyn/when-you-ask-me-to-vote-for-hillary-174becdb5ccc#.8bwk6t3qm)
". . . This isn’t about policies with which I disagree. . . You are asking me to consciously give up on any hope I may have of living a sane life in our country. . . To vote for her in the primaries, I would need to believe that the establishment on both the right and the left have so thoroughly strangled the political system that it is no longer “reasonable” to even try for reform. I have to be so scared of political opponents gaining power that it is worth it to sacrifice even the hope of being able to get ahead, have a savings cushion, access healthcare, send our kids to college, retire, or just not feel like we’re constantly living on a knife’s edge, all because of fear of a potential future. . . If you think it is reasonable to fear the opposition more than to hope for having a better life — then I’m guessing you live a fairly comfortable life and don’t feel strong motivation to change it. . . maybe you don’t really understand what you’re asking of me when you advise me to make decisions based on “practicality.” And notice, I’m not even saying you’re wrong. What I am saying is that for me to choose Hillary over Bernie right now is to literally choose to give up on the best chance we have ever had to finally become a reasonable, civilized nation, and say instead “No, we can’t do it, I am too scared of what might happen. . .” "

Removed . . .

. . . from view . . .

(from Joseph and his Brothers by Thomas Mann- translation by John E. Woods)
". . . A few years more and there would be almost nothing left of the stuff of the Joseph whom Jacob had held in a farewell embrace, as Rebekah had once held him - as little as if his flesh had dissolved into death.  Except that, since it was not death that changed him, but life, his form as Joseph remained more or less intact, but less faithfully and perfectly than sheltering death would have kept it in the mind's eye and as it actually, though deceptively, had done in Jacob's mind. But it should still give us pause that, in regard to the content and form of life, the difference between whether it is death or life that removes a person from view is not nearly so important as people would probably like to think. . .

Perfection? . . .

. . . NAH!!!   But pretty damned good!

Have you seen the sunrise
Over the ocean
Out of the sea
Marvel at the notion
How can it be

Many are your bad times
That's what you tell me
That's how you feel
Seems they might as well be
But tell me
How do you know they're real

It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
There's so much pain
And so much suffering here for you
It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
That's just your pessimistic
Point of view

Can you feel the power
Of trees in the forest
Birds on the wing
Moving hour by hour
Mysterious thing
Gaze upon the mountains
Rising above us
Touching the sky
Can this power love us
You have your doubts
But you don't know why

It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
There's so much pain
And so much suffering here for you
It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
That's just your pessimistic
Point of view

How did you ever become so jaded
Now you can only see what you created
You're so blind
The more that you look the less that you find
It's your mind
You refuse to put faith into something sublime
On your time
Your convenience means everything

See this thing is bigger
It's bigger than we are
You have to admit
Think you've got it figured
You know where it fits
It's not scientific
You can't replicate it
It just can't be done
No one's ever faked it
Just have some hope
You're not the only one

It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
There's so much pain
And so much suffering here for you
It's not a perfect world
This one that we're all living in
That's just your pessimistic
Point of view


PERFECT WORLD © 1997 Raymond M. Jozwiak
