    There was a brand new Corvette stuck in the right lane of the interstate, its business-suited owner standing by the side of the road as two work clothed Good Old Boys driving an old, battered pickup pushed it off the road and onto the shoulder. Just a little vignette.

    BTW, I think there should be some regulation preventing guys under 6-feet tall and weighing over 300 pounds from buying and wearing medium sized t-shirts. I know this is Bubba country but all the same…

    Just another vday in the sticks.

    10 beautiful things about today 🙂 !

    1) The true Blue Bloods

    2) Melania Trump is FLOTUS and we watched her occupy that seat of honor at the SOTU Address rather than Bill Clinton (shivers).

    3 ) “We are born free and we will stay free.” “Tonight we renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country”__President Trump

    I thought Bernie’s head was going to explode!

    4 ) Spirograph 🙂 !

    5 ) Buzz Aldrin saluted President Trump.

    6 ) Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz both on Fox trying to be the loudest voice in the choir singing President Trump’s praises. Who would have predicted this moment in 2016?

    7) Little dogs.

    8 ) The look on someone’s face regardless of their age when you bring them helium filled balloons 🙂 .

    9 ) Imagining the horrified faces of the democratic base, ANTIFA, Black Lives Matters, The People’s Socialist of America, the “Burn it down” P*ssy Hat Brigade, MSM, Hollywood elites, as President Trump got the democrats to chant USA USA USA during the SOTU Address . This will keep me smiling all day.

    Did Pope Francis invite the Grand Sheikh to read the Bible and believe in Jesus Christ? If so, tell us about it instead of handing us the sad commentary he’s promoting the world over? And if not, why not? Why not tell the Muslim that our God claims to BE love, not just TO love but actually be what love is? This is heartbreaking.

    Pope and Al-Azhar Grand Sheikh: Terrorism due to “incorrect interpretations of religious texts” and poverty
    February 5, 2019 by Robert Spencer

    Pope Francis and the Grand Sheikh of al-Azhar, Ahmed el-Tayeb, have published a “A Document On Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together,” and it’s as filled with falsehoods and wishful thinking as one would expect coming from a practiced deceiver such as el-Tayeb and someone so eager to be deceived as Pope Francis.

    Had a great day today. Went to breakfast with a friend and was able to pay for two cops’ breakfast, which made me happy. Then, after shopping a little we went to the movie. We saw The Upside. It was great. We lol’d all through it. The story was great, the actors were great, it moved along quickly with no dead moments, plenty of drama interspersed with laughs. I highly recommend it to everyone. A real feel good movie. I’m still smiling. The preview is a taste of what is in the movie, but there is much more. 🙂

    It looks like WI’s new governor is going to deep 6 the Foxconn deal.

    Apparently Evers is adding all kinds of caveats to the deal including draconian air rights restrictions.

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

    A prayer for Justice Kavanaugh and Col. Flynn:

    Prayer to St. Michael

    St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle;
    be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
    May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
    and do you, O prince of the heavenly host,
    by the power of God,
    thrust into hell Satan and the other evil spirits
    who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

    I was reading an article in a conservative newspaper where a conservative wrote about abolishing abortion in Oklahoma. I normally like much of what he writes, but this was a bunch of baloney.

    He argues that it is wrong to turn women who are victims of the abortion industry into criminals because they’re tricked into believing it’s not a life. Now I might agree with that when it comes to scared teenage girls, but adult women know what they’re doing, heck some of them even get on you tube and brag about how many they’ve had. If a woman had a week old baby and told someone to smother it and sat and watched while they did it, she would be guilty of at least an accomplice to murder.
    He argues that those of us who are on the side of abolishing abortion are not wanting to save the life of some if we can’t save the life of all. That is very dishonest, I for one am all for heartbeat bills and even for bans on late term abortions, but the reason I started paying attention to the abolish movement is because I’ve heard this stuff for years and seen laws get passed and courts rule it’s unconstitutional and watched states cower down and do what the robes tell us to do while thousands more babies every year are slaughtered.
    I’m not naive enough to believe if our state abolishes abortion that women won’t just go to a state where it’s legal, but at least in this state we will no longer sanction murder and some of those babies will get to live.
    As for punishment, something can’t be illegal without a punishment for the crime. People don’t go to prison without a trial.
    Then he goes on to argue we should communicate to persuade people of the brutal and murderous activity in abortion clinics. Like that hasn’t been happening since Roe V Wade, yet millions of babies have been murdered.

    Frankly I’m sick and tired of the rhetoric we hear year after year, yet abortion continues. I do not care what SCOTUS said or says, once upon a time they said it was legal to own slaves as well.

    I do not understand how someone can argue against abortion, but then say we should just try and limit the number and fight against actually doing anything to end abortion.
