Almost One-Third of US Troops Are Refusing COVID Vaccines, Officials Say | Military.com

Good for them, although I'm surprised they have been given a choice. I don't remember ever being given such a choice when I served in the U.S. Navy back in the 1980's. In fact, I remember once that the whole crew on my ship was required to get a flu vaccine that actually got us sick, and this was right before some sensitive winter operations in the Black Sea. We were pretty miserable.

Yep! They were warned* a lot*. But, frankly, anyone who has paid any attention whatsoever over the years to what Joe Biden has actually said and then done -- or *not* done, as the case may be -- needed no warning. His whole career has been one long, boring, monotonous, creepy, plagiarism-filled warning, and anyone foolish enough to vote for him, or to help fix the election to fraudulently put him into office, gets what they deserve. Sadly, the rest of us have gotten stuck with him as well.

EXCLUSIVE: Donald Trump 'really concerned' with where Biden 'is taking things' [youtube.com]

KeithThroop comments on Feb 21, 2021:

Why would President Trump refuse to meet with Nikki Haley? Could it be it is because she betrayed him when it seemed politically advantageous for her to do so, but then, when she realized she had made a mistake, tried to take it back only because it now seems politically advantageous for her to do so? Could it be because he can't trust her, and he needs to teach her a lesson? I'm very interested to see what President Trump might do regarding the start of his own social media platform. I suspect, however, that it may be better for him to simply join existing platforms such as Gab and Parler and Slug.com, making steady use of their platforms and drawing his 75 million supporters to them to undercut Big Tech. News sources would have to at least follow what he is doing on such platforms and report what he says there.

As they have moved more and more to the Left, I find I can't really think of any position on which I agree at the moment. Perhaps someone else will point out an issue that I can agree with them about, but looking over stances on issues as outlined, for example, by the Progressive Policy Institute (https://www.progressivepolicy.org/issues/), I am currently at a loss. Although there are a few issues on which I might have agreed, such as genuine concern for the environment, for example, I find that their approach to handling the matter cannot gain my support.

KeithThroop comments on Feb 18, 2021:

I agree with Theodore Roosevelt, who famously said that, “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only 100% Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.” The article below helps to bring out some of what he meant, and it helps to explain what is meant in the Preamble to the Constitution of the American Legion (of which I am a member), which states that one purpose for which we associate ourselves together is “To foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism.” **Teddy Roosevelt: “No Room in This Country for Hyphenated Americans” ** > “There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all.” > “This is just as true of the man who puts ‘native’ before the hyphen as of the man who puts German or Irish or English or French before the hyphen. Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance.” > “But if he is heartily and singly loyal to this Republic, then no matter where he was born, he is just as good an American as any one else.” > “The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English- Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian- Americans, or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality than with the other citizens of the American Republic.” > “The men who do not become Americans and nothing else are hyphenated Americans; and there ought to be no room for them in this country. The man who calls himself an American citizen and who yet shows by his actions that he is primarily the citizen of a foreign land, plays a thoroughly mischievous part in the life of our body politic. He has no place here; and the sooner he returns to the land to which he feels his real heart-allegiance, the better it will be for every good American.” Theodore Roosevelt Address to the Knights of Columbus New York City- October 12th, 1915 https://reaganiterepublicanresistance.blogspot.com/2010/05/teddy-roosevelt-no-room-in-this-country.html For a full text of the speech see: http://www.the-american-catholic.com/2014/07/15/october-12-1915-theodore-roosevelt-addresses-the-knights-of-columbus/ See also: ...

Does teaching "white guilt" also cultivate a "white pride" backlash?

KeithThroop comments on Feb 17, 2021:

As a Christian who believes the Biblical teachings about human origins, namely that human beings came about by descent from two original human beings created by God, one male (Adam) and one female (Eve), the two of whom, for all I know, having looked a lot more like a black or brown couple than a white one, I question the way we speak of race from the outset. I believe there is really only one race, the human race, however much diversity there is among human beings, and that there is no basis for any particular pride among any of the various groups of people, however we might categorize them. Besides, I ultimately give God, the Creator, all the credit for anything good that has come from anyone, anywhere, at any time.

KeithThroop comments on Feb 14, 2021:

> So the hypothesis is that God is an abstracted ideal formulated in large part to dissociate the ideal from any particular incarnation or man or ruler. From a Biblical perspective, this is backwards. It presupposes that man has created God rather than the other way around. God is not simply "an abstracted ideal formulated" by man. Man is a concrete creation of an already existent God. This is the view of both Judaism and Christianity, even if it may not be the view of ancient Greece. Tertullian was on the right track when he challenged his contemporaries with the question, "What has Jerusalem to do with Athens?" > There’s a very solid idea in the Old Testament that… if you confuse the notion of sovereignty with the current sovereign then your culture immediately degenerated into a totalitarian state and turned to stone. Not exactly. The problem revealed in the Old Testament is idolatry -- the exchange of any false god or idea of god with knowledge of the true God and creator of all. The problem is not confusion of the "notion of sovereignty" with the current sovereign but rather confusion of the actually existent God, who is sovereign, with anyone or anything else. As brilliant as Dr. Peterson is, he seems to repeatedly miss this obvious point. Perhaps he needs to put down Jung when he reads the Bible.

As a pastor in the U.S. I am in a unique situation on this issue. For example, as far as legal purposes go, I file my taxes as though I am self-employed, including Social Security taxes, yet I receive a W-2 as though I were an employee. However, the church does not treat me like an employee at all, but rather as one of four elders/pastors at the church who have been called by God to teach and lead them. I'm completely in charge of my own schedule in one sense and have no control of it at all in another sense, since I need to be available 24/7 to help or counsel.

Ted Cruz's response was simple and devastating. I agree he got the better of Elwes in that exchange.

Maxine Waters SHOULD BE IN PRISON after what she did to TRUMP. [.youtube.com]

KeithThroop comments on Feb 5, 2021:

For years Maxine Waters has been one of the worst on the Left. Nothing she says or does surprises me anymore. The only thing that might surprise me about her us that there are people who actually vote her into office over and over again.

Just when I think that woman couldn't say anything more despicable, hypocritical and foolish, she does it again. 🙄

I also agree that Macarthur is right on this issue and that Masters is wrong, but, as usual, I'm not all that impressed with some of the things J.D. says. He is usually right about important issues, but he often makes what I consider to be somewhat extreme statements or straw men characterizations.

My Pillow guy CENSORED by NEWSMAX! [twitter.

KeithThroop comments on Feb 3, 2021:

Bob Sellers, the Newsmax reporter who interrupted Mike Lindell and wouldn't even let him finish his answer to the question he himself had asked him, was highly unprofessional at best. He forgot that his job was to interview rather than debate his guest. If he felt the need to add the view he espoused, he could have let Mike finish his answer and come back with a challenging follow-up question rather than rudely interrupt him, talk over him, demand that his producers end the interview, and then get up and walk off the set. Frankly, I think that Newsmax should demand that he formally apologize on air for his tantrum, but I am not going to hold my breath waiting for that to happen. At any rate, his actions were not representative of the overall coverage on Newsmax so far as I have seen.

Twitter apparently has a habit of seeing the truth as "hate" speech.
