GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

'The best way to keep peace is to be ready to destroy evil. If you Pearl Harbor me, I Nagasaki you.' - Ted Nugent.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

AMERICA'S VLADMIR PUTIN, SENATOR JOHN McCAIN!


Many people the world over are very apprehensive since the advent of Comrade Vladimir Putin on the Russia political terrain some nine years ago. Vladimir Putin is petite, testy, feisty, complexed, somewhat unhappy, reactive, mad at something, cunning and above all unpredictable! Coincidentally Icheoku finds all these characteristics in Senator John Sidney McCain, hence we have tritely dubbed him America's Vladimir Putin!

Both men were fiercely "patriotic" and love their country a lot. While one was a spy chief of the then KGB, the other was a navy pilot in then United States Navy. Both men fought and defended their countries respectively in various capacities, with the last sinew in their body; however both are still smacking for a show down for reasons not particularly known to this blogger. The fear is that whatever these two men are suffering internally from, may come to a hilt should Senator John McCain win this November's election. Who will suffer, the world at large and specifically the American people who will be called upon for additional and continuous sacrifices. Can you live with the knowledge that you facilitated the final melt-down of civilizations by electing Senator John McCain this November? Why let the two worlds collide by voting for the wrong candidate, Senator John McCain? It does not portend good - it is simply omnious and we all will partake of the sour supper should the unexpected happen and Senator John McCain is elected president of the United States of America this November. PLEASE DON'T DO IT! DON'T ELECT SENATOR JOHN McCAIN! IT IS SUICIDAL!

Russia's Vladimir Putin is smallish and so is Senator John McCain! Russia's Vladimir Putin is a womaniser who dumped his wife for a younger fashion-model so did Senator John McCain dump Carol McCain for a then flashy Cindy Hensley now McCain! Russia's Vladimir Putin suffers from small man syndrome and so is Senator John McCain! What happens when small men are giving some fierce awesome power? Ask 'Austin Power' (remember mini-me) - they will surely use it to maximize their miniaturized size. They will certainly test it for efficacy and to prove that they are able and capable; what they lack in natural endowment, they will make up with newly found awesome power.

If you think you have seen it all with the lacklustre George Bush government, wait until the accident -waiting to happen, happens and Senator John McCain and the "whore" of Alaska is elected in November. Sarah Palin is George Bush in a dress. A woman so empty and forlorn that she dared to say that because you can see Russia from Alaska, that makes you eminently qualified as an expert in foreign policy. And unknown to this beauty queen wanna be, Alaska was formerly a USSR territory - may be that would make Sarah Palin a Russian resident hence a foreign policy wonk?

Every American should be ashamed at the emptiness of this pretty faced "stripper" and the whole world is watching and laughing at our unabashed unintelligence. This Sarah Palin is a woman once described as Dan Quayle with indoor plumbing; forcing one commentator to pose a question whether it is just genitalia that the supposed Hillary Clinton's supporters were voting for when sex organ alone will not help them put food on the table or ensure their children's tuition fees. The Senator John McCain's camp is shameless and staffers therein do not even know that they do not know anything - that they are dumb and dumber. How dare these pimps perpetuate lies on the American people thinking that they, the American people, are too dumb to understand what is truth or lies? It is possible that they do not have brains otherwise why is it so difficult for them to distinguish between truths and lies. May be it is a case of No Brain, No Shame (NBNS) syndrome? This is a woman who is today governor of a very tiny state of Alaska with about only 680,000 people out of which only 144,000 voted for her election. A state with a population less than most American cities and sometimes less than a city block. American women, you must say to Senator John McCain, thanks but no thanks for throwing you a bone with Sarah Palin selection! Tell Senator John McCain, please not this type of woman! You need a woman advocate who will not roll back your hard won rights including that which appertains to your physical body.

America, what is your fascination with this Miss pretty face? Have you forgotten that she is a republican or are you not yet Bush-fatigued all these eight years of misery? You better wake up from your stupor before it is too late. Should Senator John McCain win, he is going to start so many wars thinking that we are all war mongers otherwise why did we vote for a war-monger like him? Please America vote your head and not your heart because while the former is reasonable the later is merely sentimental. If you have ever been in love, you will know what it is to be unreasonable, sentimental and emotional. A pretty face is not just enough to tackle a strange world as GW has bequeathed on whoever succeeds him. A beauty queen wanna-be from remote Alaskan wilderness is not what the doctor ordered!

Please do not heed the Senator John McCain's spokesman's call that this election should be about personalities and not issues? What a crass opinion - maybe they know that they cannot win a fair and balanced issue-based campaign hence all the curve-balls being thrown out there. America, tell this inept, old-ideas tinged campaign of Senator John McCain, that you are not as dumb as they think. Among the myriad of problems bedevilling Americans they do not have anything to tell Americans regarding the palliative measures they will put in place, instead they are comparing people to some celebrities. Are you kidding me?

Look at Senator John McCain and the anti-abortion fundamentalist he picked for his vice presidential slot. This is John McCain who did not consider it abominable to drop cluster bombs on innocent children already here on earth but considers it heretical to terminate an un-viable fetus. Yet Senator John McCain is honorable? Where lies his honor when he acknowledged that Hillary Clinton is a bitch during one of his campaign stops earlier in the year? Where is this septuagenarian's honor when he crudely referred to his wife Cindy as a cunt? Where is his honor when he said that Chelsea Clinton is so ugly it appeared she was fathered by Janet Leno. Serving in the military should not be the ONLY requisite to being a good president. It is too restrictive!

Senator John McCain is America's Vladimir Putin - both men have a military mindset - always calculating to outmaneuver and out fox the opponent. They see every situation in the prism of warfare and this makes for difficult diplomacy. AMERICA SHOULD BE VERY WARY OF ANY ONE-WAY MINDED LEADER. George Walker Bush is a test case! America how did you fair under his presidency?

Concluding, if you like the uncertainty of Georgia Republic, Ukraine, energy as a tool of diplomacy and all these meddlesome interloping Vladimir Putin and the uneasiness it is causing the world over, then Senator John McCain is your candidate; but should you want a new direction and manner of doing things then vote with your head and not your heart. There is so much restiveness in the world today and we do not need to add any further accelerant to the inferno with a Senator John McCain's presidency. The world will think that we are still smarting for more wars should we elect Senator John McCain this November. Senator John McCain is irascible, rash, quick to speak, short-fused and may order a mission that will lead to the end of the world as we know it. Who wants to live this nightmare of uncertainties? Definitely not this blogger! Therefore, No Way! No How! No McCain! No Palin!
