Tea With George

If we look at America as evenly divided between left and right, and the major, even foundational portion of the ideology of the left is what they refer to as “multiculturalism,” then in the name of that multiculturalism half of the country not only insists on, but celebrates deviant behaviors! You see, multiculturalists insist that the West is bad and other cultures are good - a lot better than the better than ours. So America must...

We just saw that an avid socialist might become the mayor of New York City. Socialism has been tried again and again and it’s never worked. Back in 1934 Unity Bietford, a rich British socialite, was impressed by the German National Socialist Party. You know - the Nazis. And she even became part of Hitler’s inner circle. Between 1938 and 1939 she was offered a choice of nice Munich apartments that were taken from Jews who were sent ...

A few weeks ago I read about a mother of three who was murdered. Her boyfriend was convicted of her death. She was 33, he was 48 and an illegal from Nicaragua. That woman had a history of abusive relationships since high school and endured 30 years of violence from five men. Two of them served jail time, one of them killed her unborn child. She had multiple restraining orders and chances to escape, but she always returned to her ab...

Opportunities

I was in New York City touring some sites on Manhattan with a friend.  We took two days out of the schedule to site-see and had worked our way from Downtown to Midtown.  There is no shortage of food in that city so we stopped for lunch at one of the many restaurants in Times Square.

While eating our food and watching the pedestrians walk by outside, my phone rang with a number I did not recognize.  I let the call go to ...

The lesson of Legos
In the summer of 2019, I had occasion to assist a good friend in moving
a lady from Maryland to her new place in Brooklin NY. The trip was
monumental in several ways, not the least of which was learning to
navigate the somewhat congested roads and subway systems in the
city.
For accommodations, we had arranged to stay with my friend’s former
pastor, whom I had never met. We arrived at...

Don’t you just hate the mainstream media news when they quote someone who is an “unnamed source?” Unnamed?! If someone wants to say something he or she should identify himself or herself. Last week we had unnamed sources saying that Trump did “minimal damage to Iran’s nuclear program” when our B-2 bombers dropped this 30,000 pound bombs down the air shafts into the nuclear facilities. My family sells natural gas. When you drill a g...

Can someone be a Christian and vote for a Democrat? Pretty good question, because Jesus told us that will be known by what we do. So whether a Christian can vote for a Democrat depends on what the Democrat wants to do. Democrats now find their identity in power and hatred. Christians find their identity in Christ. Democrats are for killing preborn babies. But Jesus said “woe unto any of you who brings harm to a child. Democrats sup...

Yesterday we discussed two reasons why Christians can’t vote for Democrats anymore.  The Democrat Party favors not enforcing laws against illegal immigration, human trafficking, child abuse, extortion, rape, fentanyl, smuggling and criminality. Such positions are not in line with Christ’s command that “we love our neighbors as ourselves. We don’t expose our neighbors to this kind of danger. The democrat party now uses violence as a...

One of the first Iranians I met was on an airplane on the way to Germany. He said he was going to Iran to try to rescue his family that was going to be killed by the ayatollah. I prayed for him before he got off the airplane and he told me that he would likely be dead within a week. The Ayatollahs have totally destroyed the joy and the productiveness of the Persian people, and they’ve defended their positions of power with guns and...

Last week I came into my office from the rain and when my wet shoes hit the tile floor, I fell really hard. When old people fall, they do an assessment of their situation before they get up. I looked at the wall beside me and noticed that I put a hole in the wall with my head! I wondered why I wasn’t unconscious. I looked at my wrist and I knew that I had broken it. My wife Joanne said, “George, I’ve seen you cut down big trees, ra...

A Helping Hand by Steve Adams
My friend was diagnosed last year with Stage 3 Multiple Myeloma.  It has been painful watching him, his wife and four young kids navigate the disease.  About a month ago, he received his second stem cell transplant and is recovering in the hospital.  The numbers are tracking well, but we do not expect him home for another three months.
This past weekend and early this week was spent helping the...

Unless you’ve been hiding in a cave for the last couple of weeks, you’ve seen Israel attacking Iran and Iran attacking right back. The Ayatollahs of Iran said “we have to have a nuclear weapon so we can completely destroy Israel.” And reliable reports show Iran was within a year of those atomic bombs. What was Israel to do?  Sit back and say, “Ok we don’t mind.” But if America gets involved, Iran is asking for China, Russia, and N ...

The left comes up with terms that just stagger the imagination. Almost like the concentration camps in Germany the entrance read “Arbeit machts frei.” “Work makes freedom.: When the people who are about to be killed in the gas chambers instead! The left here uses terms like “gender affirming care.” What a nice word: “Affirming!”  Sort of like the Nazi concentration camps’ “freedom.”  Gender affirming care affirms nothing because th...

A lot of liberals are accusing President Trump of Nazism - which is a charge leveled against anybody who disagrees with liberal dogma. But President Trump did what Lyndon Johnson did back in 1965. Mr Trump used Article 10 authority to bypass Governor Newsom and take charge of the California National Guard Saturday evening. This approach was last used in 1965 by President Lyndon B Johnson to bypass Alabama Governor George Wallace to...

A husband of wife economic team in Columbia University came up with the “Cloward -Piven Plan:  overwhelm the system. That is, “give government benefits at the expense of taxpayers to those who vote for politicians who will do it.” After a while the system is bankrupt!  It’s going on right now! But unlike the novel “1984,” we now have omni-present surveillance, artificial intelligence, digital currency, and ultimately digital identi...

“Lightning Bugs” by Steve Adams

My friend’s son just graduated from kindergarten and saw me doing

yard work. The next thing I heard was this little guy voice asking, “Mr.

Steve, what are you doing?” I had to chuckle under my breath.

I have been showing him how to identify Dogwood, Sassafras and

Hickory trees and, as he wandered over, I took a leaf and asked him

what tree that was from. Questioningly, his reply was, “Dogwood??”

Then, in ty...
