The Cold War is back on you ask? Was it ever off?
“We’re not getting along with Russia at all,we may be at an all time low”.
~Trump
All time low? A Cuban Missile Crisis type low? Along with the Hitler comparisons this is top of the pig ignorant quotes of the week chart.
On NATO
We are on the road again, last night before passing out in our tent to the sound of wind and rain, read the great comments in response to my recent rant about the 'peace movement.' Thanks you all. Sorry about no responses.
Today after some nights camping and during the day observing and photographing wildlife along the Pacific Coast Trail in Monterey to Big Sur, we passed the Republican Party offices in Monterey, California on our way out of town.
Take it easy, man. Relax. Take it all in. Breath deep the gathering doom.

I find this interesting. Ann Coulter, the high priestess of conservatism and bigotry, is "tired of war". It's interesting because it tells us something about what's happening in this country.
Even before Trump bombed Syria things were not well in the GOP.
There is a bill in the NC House (HB 562) intended to target transgender people. It doesn't say so on up front, but the bill increases the penalty for second-degree trespass from 20 days maximum to 120 days maximum if the offense occurs "in a multi-occupancy bathroom, shower or changing facility."
So is everyone safe now?
What a twisted world we live in. Trump's "response" to the "Syria gassed it's own people and we demand blood" crowd, otherwise known as neocons, or as I like to think of them, "war criminals" made someone a lot of money.
When comparing horrors of today with the glorious past with such lines as "even Hitler wouldn't"...
Warfare is littered with war crimes and crimes against humanity, no nation is innocent, no nation immune.
Marching down
the days before
pushed in dreams
of color...
Kindred of the poor
blessed in time and place
barefooted to cities of the night
taking flight
carrying Mother’s anger
and hating
it
a yoke of time, puritanical
Lifted, somewhat with age
infirmity at the door
wishing more delights
Some thoughts on America's attack on Syria.
