Frank, I was listening to the news this morning. Sometimes a very bad idea. They were busy reporting about people specifically democrats, who really didn't care about what Joe Biden has done. They say they really disagree with a lot of things that he's done and I suspect that many of these people are not going to bother to vote at all because they are not happy with either Biden or the Rump. That's exactly how we lose democracy by people being totally Picayune and not looking at the big picture.
So here's the big picture. Do you want to live under a democracy where you have human freedoms and civil rights or do you want to live under a Russian type of dictatorship where you have no rights no freedoms except the freedom to live and support the state in anything and everything they do.A country where you have to worry about 4th floor balconies. Do you you want to put in a right wing president? Then you're going to get exactly what you're saying you don't want and you're going to get a lot of that.
Here's the problem, if that's not enough already, you will have no way to do anything about it. When you place your objection with the state bydemonstrating or talking too loud you're going to go to jail. Is that the country you want to live in?
Let me ask you again- is that, the country, that you want to live in?. There is a solution if not. Vote for democracy and to do that vote for Democrat from the bottom of the ticket to the very top. Not voting or voting for The rump simply means that you are a traitor to the American cause. I'm sorry for saying that but if you look at it real close you will see that that is correct. God Bless America and God bless the people of America.
I thank God for Joe Biden's courage, which is often misinterpreted as vanity. He will not get credit for his tenacity or many of his accomplishments in the last 3 years until long after he and I are in our graves. Yet I hope American idealism and our democratic institutions, tattered as they are now, ultimately hold firm enough for long enough to be repaired. My nephews and nieces and all the young generations have huge challenges to meet. Thank you for raising your voice in this cause, Frank.
You've done a good job pointing out the paradox, and danger, in some of the sloganeering about Palestine. I share your concern, as well as your sympathy for innocents suffering in Gaza, Ukraine, and Russia, too.
While I usually agree with a lot of what you have to say, this is totally off the mark. The people who are protesting on behalf of Palestinians are not seeking to live in a world run by Hamas, Russia or Saudi Arabia. They are seeking to live in a world where the current international rules are observed and upheld for everyone, including Palestinians.

Frank Schaefer thank you that is the best discourse on today's political situation in the world I've heard on all of the newscast and I read many.

Spot on. We live in scary times
Greetings from South Africa
Absolutely true sir.

Preach, Frank! Tge Republican embrace of dictators is alarming and anti- democratic!
