OPRAH WINFREY FOR PRESIDENT!

We really do live in a messed up world. After her rousing speech to her female devotees, a fever of speculation suddenly fell upon the gathering of the Hollywood elite. Could it be possible that Oprah could be the next President of the United States?
Yes! Yes! YES!!! Of course she could, and on this sacred ground of Show Business at the Golden Globe Awards the chant went up 
"Oprah for our next President."
Well let the dreamers dream and let the Beautiful People spend their millions to make it happen, but what is a matter of concern is the response of the media. 
Let us take NBC for example. This is a corporate broadcasting organization which, in their own words is "Committed to fair and balanced reporting."
These very people, the 'fair and balanced ones', went positively giddy at the prospect of their darling diva entering the race for election 2020. Gone were any pretensions of balance, impartiality or fairness. Their hatred and malice for President Trump, which for the past two years has been their daily bread, was replaced by a cornucopia of joy and laudation as they hailed his female successor: the one and only Oprah.
Not so fast. There are three more years to be lived on this planet before the next election and, as the last Democratic hopeful, Hilary Clinton, can attest, surprises do happen.
Jubilate.

Golden Globes and the Not-so-Golden Moments


Well the annual Golden Globe Awards night has been and gone. It was refreshing in so far as Trump Bashing was out. However male bashing was in.
Oprah Winfrey led the charge proclaiming a "New Day" had dawned. Her sisters could  now walk free, unashamed, heads held high and without fear. The Day of Dignity had arrived when women would no longer tolerate being bullied and molested by brutal male over-lords.
 She failed to mention that these "brutal overlords" were mostly to be be found in the fiefdoms of Hollywood, the Media and the California film industry where she herself has held court for three decades!
While we agree that every woman should be afforded dignity in the work place and walk unashamed and free from fear at all times, they themselves can help their cause by dressing with modesty while they work and walk among men.
The "Me Too" and "Times Up" movements seem oblivious to certain laws of nature that, if a woman wears provocative clothes, douses herself with perfume called "provocation", involves herself in provocative conversation then her male counterparts may just possibly be PROVOKED to lust after her.
If I have not spoken clearly enough, you can always contact me by phone and speak to my wife Pauline who will give the point of view of a godly woman.
Jubilate.
