Phil Beaver works to establish opinion when the-objective-truth has not been discovered. He seeks to refine his opinion by listening to other people’s experiences and observations. The comment box below invites readers to express facts, opinion, or concern, perhaps to share with people who may follow the blog.
Note:  I often connect words in a phrase with dashes in order to represent an idea. For example, frank-objectivity represents the idea of candidly expressing the-objective-truth despite possible error. In other words, the writer expresses his “belief,” knowing he could be in error. People may collaboratively approach the-objective-truth.

Our Views. The Advocate, despite the tyranny of the-objective-truth, exercises the liberty to publish political propaganda produced by LSU.

 

Today, we observed this scene and event: After repeatedly asking the doctor to refill a prescription, the doctor-neglected patient, sitting in a chair, suddenly gasped and went into a sleep-like trance. Care-taker manipulated the patient to the floor safely, where heavy breathing and otherwise silence was observed. Caretaker called 911 for an ambulance and firemen arrived first.

 

At the emergency room, a CAT scan, blood work, and EKG showed the patient was normal. The missing medicine was administered. The patient was discharged into home care.

 

I wonder how seriously the flood of Medicaid patients has over-taxed the medical system so that a patient in the system for decades cannot get service. And with some patients not as attentive to their own health as this patient is, how might the frequency of emergency over neglected refills increase?

 

I overheard the patient say, “This was the worst day of my life.” It was brought on by doctor negligence, perhaps due to overwork. The cost to Louisiana is probably $8000 to the cost of thought and a phone call, say $40.

 

I think Gov. John Bell Edwards should call the patient and apologize for possible misery and loss due to Edwards’ pride and awful quote "it's the right thing to do."

 

Then, Edwards should apologize to the people of Louisiana for the pain and suffering he has brought to people who always had voluntary public-integrity.

 

The legislature may slow the misery and loss Edwards causes. I hope they do.

 

Today’s thought, 2 Timothy 3:7. Paul was not informed of the possibility of citing the-objective-truth, so he typically left “truth” a mystery. But too many times, I perceive he meant “knowledge of [Paul’s] truth.”

 

I can’t trust Dean’s commentary as civic morality, because it is selective. Here’s Paul’s complete sentence, which requires verses 6 & 7: “They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.”

In my view, gullibility is the first of the deadly sins, and a person’s defense against it is humility. Somehow, gullibility is not even in the standard list of seven sins. KJV has “silly” instead of “gullible!”

I am reminded of Paul’s folly. Only a man with heterophobia would be bold enough to refer to any woman as silly. Heterophobia is my word to represent the fear of monogamous heterosexual intimacy.

Letters

Levees (Tauzin). Was MR-GO a $3 billion boondoggle that devastated New Orleans during Katrina and was therefore closed? What’s the story?

The poorly designed levee system jettisoned sediment into the gulf, ending 7000 years of land-building and facilitating erosion that ate the coastline in a century.

I don’t trust your songs and slogans.

I’d rather constrain child abuse, abuse of women, and abuse of medical services, among other adult abuses for their satisfactions.

Christian apologists (Singleton). Personal gods are limited only by imagination when the-objective-truth is not known. For example, the earth seems like a globe rather than flat and a civic people don’t lie to each other so they can communicate.

The-objective-truth exists and may be discovered by voluntary public-integrity. Civic-justice may come from willing people.

Rich Lowry column. Trump campaigned on sometimes democrats love me.

And in his inaugural speech I heard, “When America is united, America is totally unstoppable. There should be no fear – we are protected, and we will always be protected. We will be protected by the great men and women of our military and law enforcement.” 

 

Some people are dissidents to this thought as for the people. I suspect that those people don’t understand the purpose and aims stated in the preamble to the constitution for the USA. It is a civic sentence that places responsibility for civic-justice on the people.

 

Voluntary public-integrity, which is coming, is not “the next chapter Buckley would write,” but then Gore Vidal helped Buckley discover his awful person in 1968.

 

Charles Krauthammer column. I don’t think CK knows what he claims to know about Trump, yet it’s a good column.

Some high-spots for me:

“After six years of U. S. passivity, there are limits now and America will enforce them.” Trump is an administrator, and his cabinet executes his policies. During his campaign, he said that enemies would learn his strategy by experience so-to-speak.

 

“Obama is gone.” For sandy lines, maybe, but for liberal democracy, I don’t think so, based on the Alinsky-Marxist organized (AMO) disruptions we have seen. The key is that Obama is coaching them not to vandalize or let emotions cause injuries, as in the past. The psychological violence is there, though. AMO comes under many names and acronyms, OFA, being a prime example.

Let what is gone be gone. “It took Trump 63 hours” to decide.

 

How can an American write that defense is not “America First?” Read the preamble, Dr. K.

 

“We’re not seeking a fight, but you don’t set the rules.”

 

Regarding staff. Have you, Dr. K., never heard on TV that Brooklyn accented “You’re fired?”

 

Candidate Trump said he would not reveal his strategies. I took that as an absolute. 

 

Surprise! He won the votes in 84% of US counties. And you, Dr. K. get “none of our business” out of candidate Trump? Show evidence, please.

 

Dr. K., don’t you just love vague references? I see from wiki that Palmerston “assiduously fostered the press, which gave him very favourable coverage.” I guess you are signaling that you are reversing course: Somehow, someday you will favor Trump.

 

“Eight years of sleepwalking is over.”

Lanny Keller column (pressure is on). A civic people don’t lie to each other so that responses do not attempt to address lies. As a result, liars cannot communicate.

 

The idea that racism and church have standing in civic meetings or civil negotiations is false as well as unconstitutional.

Jennifer Pokempner column (foster children). I think more should be spent on children born to parents who intended to abuse the child as repetitive family-practice.

 

In other words, work on the source of the problem rather than cures for the problem.

  

3 public works bosses (Page 2B). These three choices are re-assuring.

Monuments (Page 1A). To

H-1B visa programs (Page 3A). Perhaps Trump orders data on which to make decisions. 

 

However, with American universities so focused on liberal democracy, I doubt qualified US workers exist. What technology company needs students of dialogues on racism?

 

American colleges may soon be exposed to embarrassment beyond their diversity programs: Liberal democrats is not what the USA needs.

BESE shelves plan (Page 7A). Seems like study groups for BESE are a waste of time.

Phil Beaver does not “know” the-indisputable-facts. Phil trusts and is committed to the-objective-truth of which most is undiscovered and some is understood.
