Marianne Williamson proposes new Department of Peace: 'We can no longer rely on force'
« on: August 20, 2019, 01:01:24 pm »
Simple way to destroy our country:  Don't fight.

Quote
New Age guru Marianne Williamson on Monday announced that as president she would create a Department of Peace.

Ms. Williamson, whose offbeat campaign has grabbed voters’ attention if not high poll numbers, said a Cabinet-level peace secretary would help end the scourge of violence in the U.S. and across the globe.

She called the elite U.S. war machine “obsolete” and that “we can no longer rely on force to rid ourselves of international enemies.”

“The planet has become too small for that, and in so doing, we overburden our military by asking them to compensate for the other work that we choose not to do, and we are less effective, and less secure, because of our choices,” said Ms. Williamson, author of several best-selling inspirational books.

Earlier, Ms. Williamson floated plans for a new Department of Children and Youth that would focus on protecting and uplifting the country’s children.

Or we could go back to calling the defense department "War Department," like the good ol' days.

I propose we deal with international enemies by shunning them. Just don't pay any attention to them and they'll feel so bad about themselves, they'll stop slaughtering people. Everyone wants to be liked, even oppressive, murderous tyrants.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

The fruitcake's Department of Peace will offer four years of peace education, as well "addressing white supremacy."

Williamson is right up there with the former Obama spokesperson for the Dept of State, forget her name, she is on Fox News Network now, that thought we needed to provide ISIS members with JOBS.  Two peas out of the same pod!

A rainbow unicorn, to show all that inclusiveness.

The most effective "Dept. of Peace" is the strongest possible military, per President Reagan and those like him with common sense.

Well here's a good logo for Ms. Williamson's new department:


By the way, the shirt in the pic is mine.
Got it at a little music festival in upstate New York just about 50 years ago.

This is NOT "a reproduction" (of which there are thousands).
It's a REAL, genuine festival security staff shirt.
You couldn't buy these, no one sold them there.
I'll go so far as to say this one might be "the best surviving example".

Just a variation of the Space Force.

The only difference is this is about the space between Williamson's ears.

She is entertaining, I'll give her that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
