Monday Irony

Democrats- Irony in a word…but let us list the ways or at least begin the infinite line, 1. Democrats think you need a license for a Natural Born Right, 2. Announce(in Maine) that pride in your nation’s flag is optional right before the 4th of July, 3. Replace the veteran’s flag with gay pride flag at a veteran’s day memorial on Veteran’s Day,, 4. Demand that Trans-women, formerly know as confused men, have access to abortions, which they can’t have because they are still men who are confused, 5. (In Maine) taking money you don’t have, from people who don’t have enough, to give to those who have violated our laws, whom you have invited here, and “misplacing” parts of the budget so you can say you have a balanced budget to do it all….and the list goes on…

Monday Irony (canine legal edition)

61180272_447986529310068_8042875961739313152_nI thought it a little disrespectful on Memorial Day weekend that, upon hearing of the latest legislative prowess in Augusta, my dog, while lying on her LL Bean dog sofa (doggie penthouse) feeling greatly mistreated, is demanding that she have a lawyer too. She further insists that they be made of top quality rawhide and bacon flavored. She wants them sent in bulk so they will last her at least 15 minutes to a half an hour.

Arbitraitors

 

The pulse of life. Heroic emergency workers will fight to try and save it. Medical advancements are made in desperate search to heal and prolong its energy.

Expectant parents rejoice to hear its sound throbbing in the womb. Those same parents may have to hope in an anguished expectation that a talented doctor can work within that womb to mend its weakened state. Still others, when aware of its quickening sound within, will seek a doctor to extinguish that spark of life that is the heartbeat.

The simplest way to verify life and death. Does the heart beat? And the most common of senses beats a path to the doorway of the conscience.

For the veil no longer lingers over when the life begins. The heart beats loud its evidence. Now the battle over the value and who will arbitrate the value of a life?

Stark lines are drawn between those who call to God as the giver of life and those who call on government to arbitrate who is worthy to live. Those who abhor an earthly litigation for life or death are now forced by that government to fund and support the very thing they despise. A thing history describes as tyranny itself.

It stands before us now that those who hold power will arbitrate life and death. If this is true, we are traitors to all that history has warned us. In the shadows, once so distant, nearer now in the hallows, the ghastly specters of humanity, who wielded horribly the power to chose those worthy of life and death, seem just a heartbeat away.
