Prayer A to Z

Recently, visiting my sister in Missouri, I ran across these old abandon houses as I was taking a morning walk through the woods.

I am sad that

that old tree

has been broken,

just as an old life

is broken in years.

It was a good tree

and a good life, even in its

old years it was lovely.

After the Civil War almost all blacks became Republicans—the party of Lincoln. So what happened along the way?

Why are they now almost all Democrats?

And why did Democrats go from demonizing blacks to loving them?

Why did the Democrats go from the party of racism to the party of civil rights?

How can Democrats deny their racism? That they brought in the Ku Klux Klan? That it was the Dems that were the slave owners and the Big Bosses of the slave plantations?

I suppose most Democrats will say that they have changed. Really?

What Happened?

Okay, let’s talk about what really happened. After the Civil War most blacks became Republicans. But they were greatly demonized and abused for it by the Democrat party. And Woodrow Wilson really put a scare into them through the Ku Klux Klan. That scared some of them to vote Democrat.

Then under FDR…

• The German Nuremberg Law in 1935 that defined their racism was inspired by the American Jim Crow laws. Our American laws of 1924 were these:

1. Prohibiting interracial marriage
2. Quotas for immigration based on race
3. Segregation laws which separated whites and blacks in schools, hotels, drinking fountains, etc.
4. Categories of citizenship: first class and second class
5. A recognition of inferiority of certain races, like Jews and blacks, etc.

• American law became a regular Nazi point of reference. The Nazis repeatedly turned to the American example. They looked favorably on the racism of the Democrats.
•  Many blame all of America and not the Democrats or the Progressives or the Left. But it was the Progressives that passed the racist immigration law of 1924, and the Ku Klux Klan was a creation of the Democrats. As time went on we see the big lie, as racism is now blamed on Trump…

Well, I feel like Spring is officially here in Minnesota. I went for a long walk yesterday along the bank of the Mississippi river. The river is up from where it was last summer; it was almost all dried up. Hopefully, if we get more rain the river will be at its normal height again.

My Dreams

I had one of my re-occurring dreams last night. I very often have dreams where I am quite aggravated over painters that I have hired. I suppose it’s because of some unresolved things in my mind. Early in my painting business (in the 80s and early 90s) I hired a lot of painters. And some of them weren’t too experienced or reliable. So, I suppose that’s why I’m having these crazy dreams of painters doing crazy things where I end up getting very aggravated at them. I really should pray about it to…

I think there is no better source than Dinesh D’Souza’s books to lay out the history of racism and Fascism, and to expose its roots. In this blog I am picking out a few quotes from his book The Big Lie, which I just finished reading. In these first quotes he really hits the Democrat Party hard, and we will also see them blaming their racism and fascism of the right wing—incredible!

• Robert Paxton stated in his, The Anatomy of Fascism: “It may be that the earliest phenomenon that can be functionally related to fascism is American: the Ku Klux Klan.” D’Souza writes that the Klan was the domestic terrorist arm of the Democratic Party.
• The racism of the Democratic Partyin America not only preceded the racism of the Nazis, it lasted for longer—more than a century compared to the twelve years of Nazi rule in Germany.

It is amazing to learn that most Russians have no idea what is happening in Ukraine. As reported in my Pioneer Press newspaper, “[They] refuse to believe that Russian soldiers could bomb innocent people or even that a war is taking place at all.” The Russian position is that Putin’s army is conducting a limited operation with the honorable mission of de-Nazifying Ukraine (I have no idea what that implies). Of course, Russian television is highly censored. They don’t show any of the terrible things going on in Ukraine; and they also have banned Facebook and Twitter.

I hope you know that this censorship is also happening in America; maybe not with Ukraine, but with other things that the media from people. But as soon as this country is taken over by socialism, believe me, we will be in the dark much like Russia is. But I hope and pray…
