Monumentally stupid

Monumentally stupid is how one could describe Donald Trump but I hate to attach that epithet in a general way to a whole country. However it seems to me that Americans are involved in a giant experiment to deconstruct their country. The latest in a lengthening grubby, scrawled line of policies, returning Americans to a former age and ‘unhindered’ by environmental protections, is the repealing of laws, designed to protect America’s waterways. The EPA, controlled by an arch polluter, Scott Pruitt is to role back The Clean Water Rule, a policy that you would think was eminently sensible.

Environmentally induced cancers and related health problems, affect everyone, including the families of Trump and his administration. President Orange and his wacky cronies don’t even acknowledge the danger to themselves and their families.

How stupid can you be?

Trumps’ America!

Huffington Post

As the attempt to simultaneously give already super-rich Americans tax cuts and gut further the health care system, this is what happens to protestors, disabled or not. This is really a case where a picture is worth a thousand words, could you make someone feel more helpless?

Trump is hypocritically ranting on about his ‘support’ for veterans, how many seriously disabled veterans have to be treated like this until all patriotic American’s respond appropriately?

Meanwhile Mitch McConnell the tortoise faced Senate Majority Leader gleefully goes about disenfranchising as many Americans as he can. I suggest he will reap what he sows.

Ham salad – sinks!

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2017/05/24/ark-encounter-has-been-bad-news-for-the-people-of-williamstown-kentucky/

lol…………Ken Ham’s ridiculous, con job on the folks of Kentucky, sinks into the ocean of creationist lies and delusion. So happy that this happened. You didn’t need to see the future to know that this ‘project’ was going to be a failure, just some common sense would have told you that visiting this place would be a ‘one-off’, much like visiting a freak show in Victorian England.

A legitimate museum, full of facts and verifiable, documented history will be visited time and time again, because people realise that they can actually learn something there. Children in particular wandering through the ‘Ark Encounter’, would have seen through the Creationist BS on display. Forgetting what is inside for a second, it should be sufficient to deter all visitors, when it is known that such a large wooden ship, has already been proven to pull itself apart, due to the forces of waves on its colossal timber structure.

Loonies join Nasty Party

So the U.K. election is over and the fun is set to continue. The Nasty Party has succeeded in persuading the Loony Party of Northern Ireland (DUP) to back up their woeful attempt at government. We all know about the Nasty Party but maybe most of the mainland electorate don’t know that amongst the policies of the DUP are introducing creationism into the school curriculum, continuing to refuse to provide abortion services to women in the North of Ireland and refusing to recognise same-sex marriage. Despite several of their members being young earth creationists, climate change deniers, anti-science and naysayers of Evolution, they are set to become a different type of joke, a dangerous political joke of a coalition, a cabal of the wilfully stupid and the wilfully unfeeling and malfeasant.
