Robecology comments on Apr 24, 2019:

Mitch McConnell, especially in elections, is political oddball. His erratic winning streak and extreme unpopularity makes this difficult to predict. **Since senators serve six years terms, he will be up again in 2020,** *assuming he runs again. 2020 will likely be a good year for Democrats since they are the opposition party and thus increases Democrat turnout.* Mitch McConnell is a veteran senator, who led the GOP against Barrack Obama in an historical obstruction resistance in order to force Democrats to the right and to weaken their power. He is a powerful force in the GOP as a result and so losing him would weaken the GOP quite a bit. However, Mitch McConnell is an political oddball. This is due to many narrow and large victories in the past elections historically and his current approval rating. Let’s look at the Mitch McConnell’s senate elections in Kentucky: In 1984, Mitch McConnell won by a slim 0.4%. In 1990, he won by 4% which was a difficult reelection. In 1996, despite Bill Clinton winning the state, Mitch McConnell won by a fairly large 12%. This is likely due to a very effective campaign with numerous humorous ads. In 2002, Mitch McConnell won by 29%, the largest for a Republican to win in Kentucky history. In 2008, Mitch McConnell won by 6%, many attribute that his reduced margin was due to the economic meltdown and anger against Republicans in Kentucky. In 2014, Mitch McConnell won by 15%, despite this race being considered one of the most competitive in that election due to the polls. This shows that Mitch McConnell has an erratic record with him sometimes winning big and other times struggling but ultimately winning anyway. Mitch McConnell is also unique with his approval rating in Kentucky being very low at regularly being at around 40–10 disprove to approve, making him one of the most unpopular U.S. senators.

These were taken in the petrified forest.

Robecology comments on Apr 21, 2019:

@Charlene; Point taken; Those of us who study demography have abandoned the Developed/Developing terms for Industrialized/Agricultural....kind of more "polite" and less "critical". And to Neffi's point...the implications of "Developing"....are spot on....But that brings us to the morals of our ancestors. There's a lot of arguments pro and con about the morals of our ancestors. Our grandparents and great grand parents - and beyond - were definitely more ruthless about conquest....and at the same time more religious. Yet many in the "Developing/Agrarian nations were passive and idyllic..and suffered from being "ruthlessly pillaged and systemically destabilized" Do we "blame" them or "empathize" with their ignorance? Who were more "ignorant" the "Developed" or the "Developing"? Will our grand, and great grand children consider us with the same tinted glasses? How do we want our Grand and great grand children to look at us? Should we care? When you're a demographer (as I have been for most of my science teacher life) you break down nations in to two groups; Developed and Developing. We recently learned that these terms are "offensive" so we went with "Industrialized" vs Agrarian, or Agricultural nations. But it's clear; some nations ended up with greedy, aggressive leadership...some ended up with weak or no leadership. The Aggressive nations became developed, the weak became the "developing". It's sad, but it's real. So are we now "enlightened" or just "tolerant"?

I don't know if it was my bringing it to my parent's attention that caused the fire department to be called...but I recall seeing the work being done to fix that roof...and it's affected my reaction to lightning storms to this day.

Robecology comments on Apr 21, 2019:

I never got "weepy"...over the Notre Dame fire....but the beauty and architecture showed the devotion of our ancestors to worshiping the myth. I'm hoping the fire will end up being looked upon as something that expedited the restoration of it....the Notre Dame Cathedral was a real work of art..., and should be restored (without so much wood, IMO.). Actually; the fire did something that was a goal of the restorers. The fire did something quickly that would have taken years, if not decades...it removed almost all the ancient bitterly dried and probably insect infested wood...which apparently was a goal of any ancient rebuilding...to renew and restore the framework. If you look at the history of religion - you'd see that religion - and western Christianity in particular, served many purposes. Mostly it acted as a population growth control - albeit a restriction of the growth of wisdom and knowledge....the punishments meted out killed millions of scientists, known then as "alchemists" , "witches" and "warlocks".... Yet western Christianity also served as a moral compass; whereas those allegedly without a "religion" were morally corrupt. (I say, allegedly....because we now know this was not true). The "church" was at first a population growth encourager....suggesting we "go forth and multiply" but then they started emphasizing we be the "shepherds of nature" and work to respect the environment. Unfortunately, that emphasis became only token, and not strong enough for the present growth rate (158 more births, than death, per minute, world wide). We agnostics now know better....so you're right....we don't weep for the loss of a "Religious" symbol... But it saddens those of us who recognize a place for the greatness of Cathedral architecture in history.

What a great scene! Thank you for sharing that..

Hi, just here to learn. Not much experience.

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

I'll welcome you by saying this...as I have for 45 years as a science teacher... If you think scientifically, you're being a scientist. It's not necessarily a paid position... it's a way of thinking that demands proof, a clear process, repeatability, making comparisons with normal things (creating "controls) and applying the Scientific method... Most, if not all agnostics are being Scientists. https://d1ca4yhhe0xc0x.cloudfront.net/Files/5084/7/2013-updated_scientific-method-steps_v6_noheader.png

Are You Embarrased To Be A Democrat?

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

They may be squabbling now...but I'm confident the primaries, the debates, and the convention will be much more settled. It looks, right now, like a toss-up between Joe and Bernie. I'd vote for either...especially if they have one of the other young leaders for a VP.

Stepped outside to retrieve the mail.

Charming and not too subtle boast there....

Baton Rouge, LA, what is this kinda-sorta dandelion wildflower?

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

Gently try to uproot it. Chances are good it has a long "tap" root....like a carrot. https://www.allotment-garden.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/salsify.jpg

Flower pictures I took while on Grand Cayman Island.

Makes me want to go there...I have fond memories visiting there with several different women....

I'm going to try this again here.

Obama knew the answer to this years ago...License, test, train, insure...treat using a gun just like driving and owning a car.... Watch... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6imFvSua3Kg

Are Mueller and his team in on the Deep State coverup?

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

We now know how stubborn and naive the Republican party is. They want their token man in the WH to change the courts, and reverse most of the progressive moves of Obama....and they have pretty much done so. The Republican Senate will never vote with a 2/3 majority to impeach; the house Democrats know this.... If Trump (wisely shhhh) resigns, then we get Pence in as POTUS who will declare a pardon for DJT; thus making all SDNY actions moot. We don't want him to know this too well...it will cripple America and let DJT golf full time on our retirement-funded dime. Then POTUS Pence will be Trump's puppet...and he'll keep the same cabinet. We don't want this. We want to dump the whole lot. There's less than 2 years until the 2020 elections. We have to act unified, and dignified. Stop the name calling of the Trump supporters...that only hardens them. They're ill - they need empathy, not criticism. watch this...share this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW9R6jgE7SQ

Results are in, you are the father.

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

The Santa Myth and the Easter Bunny myths are two test myths pushed by #Religulous families...if you're naive enough to buy in to them for most of your childhood, you're ready for "he rose again on Easter" myth....

That first cup of warm coffee🤗

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

Just back from the Urologist....I had to promise to cut back...on my favorite drug....coffee...feeling sad....will try to reduce the 10 cup pot to 8 tomorrow....(yea....I do all 10 cups....perhaps a bit of a junkie...I confess.....).

If you can make a woman laugh, then you can make her do anything.....Marilyn Monroe.

Bravery: Richard Dawkins interviews Saudi Arabian atheist author Rana Ahmad

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

Allow me to share a well known quote by Dawkins...I keep it tabbed...and read it often when I'm "down" http://godlessmom.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Richard-Dawkins-014.png

Just to Note: I think I was just Blocked by someone.

Robecology comments on Apr 19, 2019:

@Deiter; Each block is a lesson...learn from the lesson...don't get bitter...get smarter. Suggesting they "retreat to their bubble" ... ...is only showing you're offended... ...not that they live in bubbles.
