Do you see yourself as a leader?
We have a shortage of leaders we have managers that do not understand the concept of leading. I was military and so was my father (NCOs) trained to lead by doing not telling, in business today they want managers not leaders that’s why I working for myself.
What’s your favorite word?

Now the RED HAT GOP is practicing revenge politics by starting an Impeachment Inquiry of Joe Biden. They have pretty much admitted that they have no grounds for an Impeachment, so this inquiry is a fishing expedition. Everything they say they have is made up bluster and even the people that their hearings have interviewed did not pan out with the damaging information that they hoped they would get.
The GOP spent 7 million of dollars and had 33 hearings of Hilary Clinton to prove absolutely nothing even admitting that they only did it to hurt Clinton. Now they are attempting the same level of nonsense with Biden.
The petty vindictive bullshit, the democrats Impeached Trump (twice) over obvious, provable offences so the radical right is going to impeach Joe Biden because… “well we don’t have anything, but we’ll find something.” That’s what they say the inquiry is for to manufacture evidence of a made-up charge. They are trying to ‘Minority Report’, this administration by simply fabricating imaged crimes.
They want to hold Joe guilty for the crimes of Hunter, crimes I might add that the GOP would never charge any other person with. They accuse him of interfering in Ukraine by having a prosecutor removed to help his son and benefit Burisma. It was the world court that help remove the corrupt prosecutor not Biden and his removal was actually a detriment to Burisma.
They screamed witch hunt over all the actual crimes of Trump now they a starting a witch hunt that there are no witches to hunt.
Fuck it let them try guess they don’t remember what the outcome of Impeaching Bill Clinton of a consensual BJ.

Terrible Anniversary

September 11, 2001, was a day that changed everything. Americans never knew a world of terror that other nations live with but on that day, terror was brought to our shores, and we could not ignore it anymore. 9/11 became more than the number that you would call in an emergency, it became a place in time that a generation would remember exactly where that where on that fateful day, much like 11/22/1963 or 12/7/1941, 9/11/2001 would become another reminder if tragedy.
This day everything changed, Airports became more secure, before 9/11 TSA wasn’t a thing. Long lines at Airports became the new normal, line that a generation have always know. 9/11 plunged the U.S. into a 20-year war, a war against people and countries that had no part in the atrocities of 9/11. Our war was against an idea, not a nation, terror had come to our shores and in reactionary retaliation we took terror to Iraq and Afghanistan. Our military might toppled Sadam Hussan and the infrastructure of Iraq and eventually killed the master mind behind the 9/11 attacks Osama Bin laden while ravaging a country that has seen war for hundreds of years Afghanistan.
The terror of 9/11 still lives with us with home grown terrorist and lacks gun laws, we fool ourselves that we can stop terror at the boarder or that it has a brown face… we can’t and it doesn’t.
Remember the tragedy…don’t replay it.
We to often put professional athletes on a pedestal because they can catch or throw a ball, these individuals make millions of dollars for playing a game, something most of us would love to do. Often these idolized athletes are in reality really shitty people, some make efforts to give back but not enough of them for the opportunities and fortunes they have been given.
A few in the past have used their notoriety to advance a cause and those are the ones I respect.
Billie Jean King had spent the 1960s and early 1970s campaigning tirelessly for parity for women in sports, and in 1972, she turned her focus toward helping to pass Title IX, which prohibits sex discrimination in all federally funded school programs, including sports.
Muhammad Ali the heavyweight champion lost his title when he refused induction into the military during the Vietnam War. On April 28, 1967, reigning heavyweight boxing champion Muhammad Ali refused induction into the U.S. military. “I claim to be exempt as a minister of the religion of Islam,” he said.
Many called Ali a coward but he stood up against an unjust war and was stripped of his title because of it but he didn’t back down.
I respect these to for the stand they took and using their gifts for the common good.
Really don’t know how to relax… I just try to not take life so seriously.
