Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart On Wednesday, Trump stood before the world and proved that he is a blithering idiot. He bragged about things he has failed to accomplish, called the leaders of the European Union morons, and claimed that only he could solve all of the world’s problems. It took him nearly an hour to embarrass our nation, and prove that our voters are uninformed and ignorant. I’m shocked that no one walked out on his moronic tirade after the first 10 minutes. I couldn’t believe what I was reading. Standing in front of the entire world was a malignant narcissist suffering from dementia, who is the greatest failure in our nation’s history and offering proof with his own ludicrous and ridiculous speech. For your incompetent president, his greatest and most revealing statement was calling climate change caused by man, a “hoax.” This proved to the world that he and his American Nazi Party were born with only half a brain. They are the only people in all of developed nations who refuse ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart I was a much younger man. One day I was reading the newspaper and all the news was so bad, so depressing, I thought to myself: “God made one, big mistake: He created man.” I didn’t even know that He knew it until I happened to read it in Genesis one day. I was mostly interested in the New Testament, and the teachings of Jesus Christ. [6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.”] The difference in what I felt was about the animals, our oceans, the earth, and the sky. Prior to the industrialization of our planet, mankind killed animals for necessity: food, clothing, and even housing. When I was much younger, I learned that men killed animals for sport, and abused them for “fun.” I began paying attention ...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart Democrats are the party of progressive thought and action: for the most part. Republicans are the party of regressive thought and action, who are currently working to move our nation back into the dark days of our country when racism, bigotry, and extreme capitalism dominated every action occurring in Washington . For example, while 95 percent of the world’s climatologists claim that climate change is the greatest danger to our planet, and a danger which threatens world peace, those who call themselves “Republicans” deny science and deny the truth, that man’s dependence on fossil fuels is the primary reason. Most Democrats support all rights related to the LGBTQ community. Republicans are currently attacking a group of Americans who are among the most vulnerable: transgender citizens. The once Grand Old Party is dominated by men and women who harbor negative emotions, anger, hatred, and the incitement of violence in support for their fascist ambitions. None of w...

  Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart A recent survey by the United Nations confirmed that 80 percent of the world’s people are concerned about climate change. The poll revealed that most people believe their countries are not doing enough to slow or halt the greatest threat to mankind. You might have noticed that America no longer leads the world in anything positive. Right-wing politicians are owned by our nation’s biggest polluters, including the oil industry, and businesses which continue to rely on oil and coal to operate their factories. Although some progress was made over eight years of the Obama administration, all of it, and more, was negated during just four years of the failed Trump administration. FOX News is complicit. It has supported the less than five percent of all climatologists who deny the irrefutable fact that climate change is caused by man’s use of products coming from carbon-based products mined from deep inside the earth. Fossil fuels are deadly to humans and to...

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart   Throughout the four years of Trump’s reign of terror we constantly heard negative rants about “Jina.” I am not unaware, and there are many issues which disgust me about the government of the most populous nation in the world. However, a great leader finds the ability to make our enemies our allies. Not Trump. The United States and China are the two richest nations, but also the greatest polluters in the world. Both nations are guilty of poisoning our atmosphere with carbon emissions. The American press is quick to blame China for the its part in this very important issue, but never criticize our own failure to take serious action and lessen or end climate change. We must take responsibility for our failures and stop blaming others. So it should be of no surprise to you that the mainstream media fails to report positive efforts from China to lower their part in carbon emissions. I am a believer in two things above all else which identify men and women and t...
