Twain commented on the diary post October Is Domestic Violence Awareness Month by dakine01.
Children suffer from Domestic violence even if they only observe it. They also learn that it’s the way you treat females. Can’t understand why lawmakers aren’t more alarmed by this…..unless they also want to keep women “in their place.”

The Republicans can’t govern and the Dems won’t. The Dems do not deserve to win.

Twain commented on the diary post Star Spangled Birthday by Elliott.
Isn’t it ironic that our national anthem is about war. Fitting, I suppose.

Have not been to Scotland but sorry that I missed that treat. Beautiful country.

Twain commented on the diary post Independence Yea or Nay? by Elliott.
Don’t have a dog in this fight but you have to love a country whose national animal is the unicorn. Absolutely charming.

Thanks, Isaiah. Any day with beautiful flowers and Godiva candy is a good one.

Twain commented on the diary post Once There Was a Way to Get Back Home by Isaiah 88.
Wonderful insight, as usual, Isaiah. Yesterday was my 81st birthday and I don’t remember any time in my life that our country has been in such a terrible situation. Our foreign policy is pointless and very scary. The “old days” had lots of problems and injustices but never have I seen such unhealthy ideas being [...]

Twain commented on the blog post Late Night: President Obama, Syria, and ISIS
Maybe a direction to take is have a campaign to persuade young people to not volunteer for the military. And get parents to talk to their sons and daughters about not going to some misbegotten country to die for profit to the rich. works for me.

I agree but can’t think of anyone on either side of the aisle who isn’t for sale.

You need to take something for all that poison in your system.

Twain commented on the blog post John Brennan, Dianne Feinstein, and the Soon-to-be-Released (?) Torture Report
As a Californian I want DiFi out! She’s been there long enough, made her millions and needs to go. She’s 81 (my age) and just can’t seem to leave all that power behind. I haven’t voted for her in a long time.

Twain commented on the blog post US Can Claim This Isn’t War but ISIS Militants Killed by 500-Pound Laser-Guided Bombs Beg to Differ
It’s so comforting to know that we are not at war. Do these people think we are complete idiots?

Twain commented on the blog post President Obama Gives Speech On ISIS 9/10/2014
We will arm our “allies” heavily and the “allies” will then use the weapons against us. Hate when that happens.

Twain commented on the blog post The Uncivil Termination of Professor Steven Salaita
When was it decided that we no longer had free speech and who decided it? I haven’t seen any laws passed regarding speech but it’s happening anyway.

Just found out yesterday that my county has one of those armored tank things at a cost of $773,000! Thanks a lot DHS for going to war against us, the people. Great post, Wendy, as usual.

Do we know WHY the officer killed the elk? Sounds like he was just being a stupid jerk.

Twain commented on the blog post Israel To Take Largest Amount Of Land From West Bank In 30 Years
I wonder if people ever think about what it would be like to have someone take your home and your land so that you had no place to live and no way to grow food. No reason, they just want it. I don’t believe that Americans would sit quietly and not fight back. Why do we expect the Palestinians to be a part of their own destruction?

Twain commented on the blog post Arrested Legal Observer: Ferguson a ‘Pilot Program’ for When Communities Respond to Police Brutality
Isn’t it perfectly legal to take pictures and video of police? I thought it was.
