Wonderful life off cuts “No Deal”
Both Libertarians and leftists offer awful deals to conservatives. In this off cut from It’s a Wonderful Life, we see the Libertarian character of Sam Wainwright chortling of having offered the ground floor of a plastics deal which George Bailey rejected so as to save his buildings and loan. In modern terms it is how conservatives have said ‘no deal’ to laws weakening borders or drug laws, which Libertarians have at times demanded. Libertarians chortle every time an illegal immigrant does well despite the costs to society, or a druggie succeeds temporarily despite their handicaps.
But consider how the Potter offer to Bailey has a ‘no deal’ in similar terms as the left wing offer their terms. No ID elections. Votes received anonymously by mail after voting day. Preventing scrutiny of voter fraud. However, providing exceptions to when a recall effort is made against the California Governor? The character of Potter is a thief who steals thousands of dollars and never faces justice over it, just like the Democrats of today. And, he offers insulting terms for success. Terms similar as what McConnell has accepted?

Wonderful life off cuts Democrats Tossing away what they have to embrace corruption (Dem Preselection)
Dems are exercising power using Congress and the Presidency. But they are tossing away their voter base as they try to entrench corruption like voter fraud and double down on social engineering. The Dem ownership of the black vote dates back to FDR exploiting Democrat corruption in stealing aid Hoover had meant for stricken communities in the 1920’s. However, the Democrat controlled and exploited communities of minorities are leaving Democrats and moving to Trump Republicans. Can corruption, alone maintain the Dem powerbase?

Here is a video I made A Small Dragon
Brian Patten (born 7 February 1946, Liverpool, Lancashire, England) is an English poet. Born near Liverpool's docks, he attended Sefton Park School in the Smithdown Road area of Liverpool, where he was noted for his essays and greatly encouraged in his work by Harry Sutcliffe his form teacher. He left school at fifteen and began work for The Bootle Times writing a column on popular music. One of his first articles was on Roger McGough and Adrian Henri, two pop-oriented Liverpool Poets who later joined Patten in a best-selling poetry anthology called The Mersey Sound, drawing popular attention to his own contemporary collections Little Johnny's Confession (1967) and Notes to the Hurrying Man (1969). Patten received early encouragement from Philip Larkin.

Don't give up on hope. Emotional children and economic illiterates in the Australian Senate are demanding inadequate tax cuts for industry be watered down and in lieu higher wages are paid to employees. It is similar as California demanding businesses who got Trump's tax cuts pay half the difference to California. But even so, California businesses would be better off than Australian ones. Australia is suffering from bad IR laws and terrible red tape preventing profit. So that the trade environment is very limited to what it could be. Everything is more expensive in Australia. When IKEA pricing policies were looked at a few years ago, it was called an Australia tax. Items cheaper elsewhere were the same, just more expensive in Australia by substantial margins. So a wooden table an Australian might feel is a bargain at $140 is sold for $70 in the US. Australia needs to have trade in which businesses profit. That will mean employment and prosperity. Over regulation will strangle business and gift Australia Greek sized poverty. Meanwhile, in Sydney, journalists who campaigned against the cap on the public transport network card are now campaigning for high speed rail. High speed rail is expensive compared to more viable options. But journalists want. A year ago, media claimed the Liberals had plans to tax seniors. Now the media applauds ALP plans to tax seniors.

I am in (Shadow A-G Mark) Dreyfus' electorate. He does not live here and he does not represent me. I am told my issues are not important enough for his high office. If I approach my state member (also ALP) Gabrielle Williams, I'm told she is on study leave overseas. Alternatively she is busy when parliament is meeting. It is an election slogan. "Vote ALP because you don't matter" The incoming WA Government (ALP) is begging for more money, as they promised at election. In Victoria, in Heidelberg, a police station is empty but for an emergency button. Dan Andrews has not placed arbitrary restrictions on the button from working so maybe it is a fair swap to replace a police station with a button. But I'm pretty sure were the government a Liberal government they would have better arrangements for citizen safety, and the press would crucify them for their button.

The defenders of those who break the law so as to prevent free speech have no principle in support. Many are supporting the law breaking which they would oppose were it happening to their tribe. "It doesn't break free speech rules because it isn't the government doing it" says one defender. Another says that the person whose office was trashed and wife terrorised had it coming to them because they were privileged, white and male. Miranda Devine compares the activity with the communist children in the Chinese cultural revolution. It is an injustice. And perpetrators need to be subjected to fair and impartial legal process, which they deny their victims.

Former Australian PM Malcolm Fraser died today, aged 84 and surrounded by loved ones. He lived a life of privilege. To be rich is glorious, said one Chinese leader, but here is a cautionary tale. Fraser was strong with the weak and weak with the strong. As PM, he was denounced by the mainstream press as being "right of Atila the Hun or Genghis Kahn" and graffiti artists painted Hitler moustaches on his image. As PM, he made some good decisions, but had to be led there by good colleagues. He failed with fixing the economy Whitlam ruined. Without Fraser's example, ALP would not have had thirteen years of ALP rule which followed. Fraser supported Mugabe in Zimbabwe and never admitted his mistake in later years. In later years Fraser would champion AGW hysteria and the piracy which killed economic migrants. In earlier years, Fraser had back stabbed Gorton and been an acolyte of McMahon. Fraser was conservative in much the same way as Turnbull is, offering little in public policy. A few months before he died, he went deep sea fishing. Not a bad way to go.
ABC Radio's Jon Faine asked an abysmal question of the PM, highlighting how bad the entire network is in current affairs and news. "Mr Abbott, for a Rhodes' Scholar, how come you say so many stupid things?" No examples, the question as structured is intended to get Mr Abbott to confess to things which aren't stupid. It is important a PM can talk through such rubbish, as Gillard did when asked about her hairdresser partner. Or as Rudd failed to do when faced with his only serious question from Red Kerry. Rudd got rolled soon after, and Red Kerry retired. Abbott successfully navigated the question. It is disappointing when the token conservative writer for Fairfax, Latika Bourke, posed the question as to wether it was acceptable of ABC to ask the question, or was it unprofessional. One could answer that, Ms Bourke, but then one would be telling.
On this day in 1933, a pathetic little man was executed for killing the mayor of Chicago and another, unnamed woman, when he had attempted to kill President elect FDR. On the electric chair, Guy Zangara's last words were "Viva Italia! Goodbye to all poor peoples everywhere! [...] Push the button!" An insane left wing nut job had attempted the atrocity by targeting another left wing creature. FDR had achieved power by exploiting Black peoples. FDR's patronage of Chicago Mayor Cemak was developed around exploiting that support. William Dawson (black) was persuaded to leave the GOP and become a Democrat, eventually making Dawson the most powerful politician in Illinois. Cemak had had to overcome Irish corruption surrounding boot legging, and he engaged other ethnicities to support him. But once Cemak got office, he was starved of funds by corrupt means from his Democrat opponents. Cemak was an outsider who achieved little in office and then was assassinated. In many ways, he was what Obama promised to be. But the then power mad bigot, FDR, who had exploited blacks to achieve power, and would continue to dismiss Blacks as Democrats had ever done (cf Jesse Owens, US military treatment of Blacks and also FDR's responses to Jews pleading for help in holocaust), FDR survived. Zangara just wanted to kill rich, privileged people, like FDR. Zangara was only five foot tall, and when he saw FDR and Cemak in Florida on parade, needed to stand on a chair to see them. He took out a pistol and fired five shots. He was arrested and pled guilty to the wounding of four people. But when Cemak and the woman died, his eighty year sentence (“I have the gun in my hand. I kill kings and presidents first and next all capitalists.” As he was led out of the courtroom, Zangara told the judge: “Four times 20 is 80. Oh, judge, don't be stingy. Give me a hundred years.”) was made an executable one for which he already pled guilty. Zangara said, after being sentenced to death (“You give me electric chair. I no afraid of that chair! You one of capitalists. You is crook man too. Put me in electric chair. I no care!”).

Also on the same day in 1933, Himmler appointed Eicke as the camp commander of the new concentration camp Dachau. It was three years prior to the '36 Olympics and known around the world. In 1916, Einstein had published a paper on his general theory of relativity. In 1972, the IRA blew up a car in Belfast, killing 7 and injuring 148 more. It highlights a close relationship the IRA had with Black September, the Palestinian group active in the day under Arafat. In 1993, IRA killed two children in Warrington, England. In 1995, a Sarin Gas attack was made in a Tokyo subway, killing thirteen and wounding 1,300. In 2000, a former Black Panther was captured after killing a sheriff deputy and wounding another. H. Rap Brown had changed his name to Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin.
From 2014
It is difficult to find perfection in individuals. Youthful experience tends to distort adult behaviour. So that in some cases, sexual identity is a result of experience in youth. Not meant in a creepy Kyle Sandilands way, but as recognition that choosing to abstain is also a choice, like choosing to indulge. The mind has a way of convincing the brain that it doesn't make mistakes, but that is exactly what happens. George Washington famously declared as a child he had cut down a cherry tree, because he hadn't wanted to lie. Clearly he knew what a lie would mean, and the discovery of that informed his later behaviour. Without knowing how, or why, exactly, Harriet Beecher Stowe published Uncle Tom's Cabin on this day in 1850. It changed the world. It was probably based on childhood experience in some ways. In the book, Uncle Tom is a slave interacting with masters and other slaves. Their behaviour and stoicism were inspirational and have since become cliche.
Harriet may not have been a good writer, she was a great writer. Like Bob Dylan. But just as the protest movement of the sixties asked questions that today are not answered, so to is the issue of slavery. Slavery exists today, and must be resisted. Part of the modern problem of slavery is that the industry grown to resist it has problems with labelling. Some things are labelled slavery so as to garner support in opposing it. There are a few home truths that are uncomfortable for those who support such industry. A conservative being elected to government is not a slave master. A domestic abuser exploiting family is not a slave master. Being lowly paid is not the same as slave labor. The bible does not endorse slavery, although it has words directed to slaves and masters. However, a people smuggler is no different to a slave trader. Those who endorse people smuggling through bad government policy are no different to US Democrats who supported slavery, and opposed ending it.

Joshua Installed as Leader
1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses' aide: 2 "Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them--to the Israelites. 3 I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses. 4 Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates--all the Hittite country--to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. 5 No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. 6 Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them.

Jesus Has Risen
1 When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Jesus' body. 2 Very early on the first day of the week, just after sunrise, they were on their way to the tomb 3and they asked each other, "Who will roll the stone away from the entrance of the tomb?"
4 But when they looked up, they saw that the stone, which was very large, had been rolled away. 5 As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed....

"Strong in faith." - Romans 4:20
Christian, take good care of thy faith; for recollect faith is the only way whereby thou canst obtain blessings. If we want blessings from God, nothing can fetch them down but faith. Prayer cannot draw down answers from God's throne except it be the earnest prayer of the man who believes. Faith is the angelic messenger between the soul and the Lord Jesus in glory. Let that angel be withdrawn, we can neither send up prayer, nor receive the answers. Faith is the telegraphic wire which links earth and heaven--on which God's messages of love fly so fast, that before we call he answers, and while we are yet speaking he hears us. But if that telegraphic wire of faith be snapped, how can we receive the promise? Am I in trouble?--I can obtain help for trouble by faith. Am I beaten about by the enemy?--my soul on her dear Refuge leans by faith. But take faith away--in vain I call to God. There is no road betwixt my soul and heaven. In the deepest wintertime faith is a road on which the horses of prayer may travel--aye, and all the better for the biting frost; but blockade the road, and how can we communicate with the Great King? Faith links me with divinity. Faith clothes me with the power of God. Faith engages on my side the omnipotence of Jehovah. Faith ensures every attribute of God in my defence. It helps me to defy the hosts of hell. It makes me march triumphant over the necks of my enemies. But without faith how can I receive anything of the Lord? Let not him that wavereth--who is like a wave of the Sea--expect that he will receive anything of God! O, then, Christian, watch well thy faith; for with it thou canst win all things, however poor thou art, but without it thou canst obtain nothing. "If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth."

"And she did eat, and was sufficed, and left." - Ruth 2:14
Whenever we are privileged to eat of the bread which Jesus gives, we are, like Ruth, satisfied with the full and sweet repast. When Jesus is the host, no guest goes empty from the table. Our head is satisfied with the precious truth which Christ reveals; our heart is content with Jesus, as the altogether lovely object of affection; our hope is satisfied, for whom have we in heaven but Jesus? and our desire is satiated, for what can we wish for more than "to know Christ and to be found in him?" Jesus fills our conscience till it is at perfect peace; our judgment with persuasion of the certainty of his teachings; our memory with recollections of what he has done, and our imagination with the prospects of what he is yet to do. As Ruth was "sufficed, and left," so is it with us. We have had deep draughts; we have thought that we could take in all of Christ; but when we have done our best we have had to leave a vast remainder. We have sat at the table of the Lord's love, and said, "Nothing but the infinite can ever satisfy me; I am such a great sinner that I must have infinite merit to wash my sin away;" but we have had our sin removed, and found that there was merit to spare; we have had our hunger relieved at the feast of sacred love, and found that there was a redundance of spiritual meat remaining. There are certain sweet things in the Word of God which we have not enjoyed yet, and which we are obliged to leave for awhile; for we are like the disciples to whom Jesus said, "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now." Yes, there are graces to which we have not attained; places of fellowship nearer to Christ which we have not reached; and heights of communion which our feet have not climbed. At every banquet of love there are many baskets of fragments left. Let us magnify the liberality of our glorious Boaz.

I am a decent man and don't care for the abuse given me. I created a video raising awareness of anti police feeling among western communities. I chose the senseless killing of Nicola Cotton, a Louisiana policewoman who joined post Katrina, to highlight the issue. I did this in order to get an income after having been illegally blacklisted from work in NSW for being a whistleblower. I have not done anything wrong. Local council appointees refused to endorse my work, so I did it for free. Youtube's Adsence refused to allow me to profit from their marketing it. Meanwhile, I am hostage to abysmal political leadership and hopeless journalists. My shopfront has opened on Facebook.

I am publishing a book called Bread of Life: January.
Bread of Life is a daily bible quote with a layman's understanding of the meaning. I give one quote for each day, and also a series of personal stories illustrating key concepts eg Who is God? What is a miracle? Why is there tragedy?
January is the first of the anticipated year-long work of thirteen books. One for each month and the whole year. It costs to publish. It (Kindle version) should retail at about $2US online, but the paperback version would cost more, according to production cost.If you have a heart for giving, I fundraise at gofund.me/27tkwuc (Gofundme finished the fund raiser, 2017)
