December 21, 2017

Phil Beaver seeks to collaborate on the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered. The comment box below invites readers to write.
Note 1:  I often dash words in phrases in order to express and preserve an idea. For example, frank-objectivity represents the idea of candidly expressing the-objective-truth despite possible error.
 Note 2: It is important to note "civic" refers to citizens who collaborate for the people more than for the city.
A personal paraphrase of the June 21, 1788 preamble:  We the civic citizens of nine of the thirteen United States commit-to and trust-in the purpose and goals stated herein --- integrity, justice, collaboration, defense, prosperity, liberty, and perpetuity --- and to cultivate limited services by the USA. Composing their own paraphrase, citizens may consider the actual preamble and perceive whether they are willing or dissident toward its principles.   

Our Views (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/our_views/article_7f5834ee-e441-11e7-b03c-f726a1db2759.html)
I'm with Shofstahl and Bonin.

The Advocate writers just can’t resist expressing their liberal-democrat bias or for other reasons discredit Republicans.

Quoting them, “Still, [Kennedy] is a loyal Trump supporter.” As though loyalty to the president negates a Senator’s responsibility to represent the people of his or her state. Pardon me, writers for The Advocate: I think your loyalty to liberal-democracy rather than the American republic is mirrored in your daily sentiments.

Furthermore, The Advocate writers try to duck their opportunity for responsible authority by abdicating to the American Bar Association. Many readers are aware that the ABA is almost as disreputable to statutory justice as is the liberal press and the DNC. The Advocate has the opportunity to tune-in to the public’s integrity.

Lastly, Kennedy has, for decades been a great example of a citizen who has the honest integrity to call out errant politicians and be himself as well. The Advocate, in its folly, equates civic justice to “causing trouble.”

Each time I express hopes for my hometown newspaper, I leave the page feeling like a trouble maker. However, I will not give up on the expectation that Baton Rouge can and will have a free and responsible press, something Benjamin Franklin imagined but knew not how to secure. The opportunity exists for someone, who wants statutory justice in Baton Rouge; Louisiana; and the USA, to take the authority of proving a responsible press.

Today’s thought, G.E. Dean (Psalms 29:11 CJB)
“May ADONAI give strength to his people! May ADONAI bless his people with shalom!”

Dean says, “Do you need strength and peace? Turn to the Lord and he will provide.”

I understand that David expressed earnest entreaty for strength and peace for his tribe. Dean turns that into an egocentric, personal promise.
  
It reminds me of presidents from George Washington to Donald Trump expressing personal hopes for a good outcome for the people while the Christian right may claim divine authority in the American republic or at least in select presidents.

Egocentric peace is possible by merely having no humility at all---“knowing” that you hold the correct opinion in dispute. However, civic peace is possible only when two parties collaborate to discover the-objective-truth and make the most of it. What’s civically damning about Christianity is that two Christians with differing views can start a discussion but reach a point of disagreement and decide to be civic enemies. For example, consider a Baptist expressing the joy of Remembrance then hearing a Catholic express the power of Transubstantiation. They could decide to be civic friends even though they are not in religious agreement. However, too often one dusts the other off (Mark 6:11). I even had a Sunday school teacher call me a heretic for saying that civic neighbors should be treated equally regardless of religion.

Not wanting bad influence in my life, I left Sunday school. Only now, two decades later, I realize I overcame subjugation of my personal authority to collaborate for civic peace without compromising my trust and commitment to what is not known by anyone.

American doom (Hale) (theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/opinion/letters/article_3e616874-db78-11e7-8d32-f32e3c525201.html)

What we’re seeing is the American republic terminating five decades of Alinsky-Marxist organizing (AMO). It’s much like American republicanism overthrowing 1600 years of Bible support for slavery: reform does not come easy and does not appeal to all factions. Now, we are experiencing the overthrow of liberal democracy or collectivist liberation politics; in other words, conflict for chaos.
  
I think liberal democrats would do well to consider the possibilities for the human species and their person’s opportunity to collaborate for civic peace.

Only a person can decide how to spend his or her energy during his or her brief lifetime. Only the human has the physical and psychological power to take the authority for his or her opportunity at life. Only the person may use his or her body and mind to collaborate to discover the responsibility for freedom. Only the person can decide to exercise fidelity to actual-reality rather than the opinion that seeks to dominate in this country at any given time. Only the collection of civic persons may discover and maintain statutory justice---the rule of just law---as viewed by every civic person.

Most Americans may collaborate for private liberty with civic morality starting now.

I agree with Kinchen and Shelton. Cassidy has behaved like a citizen who wants to guarantee the safety net for victims of a 1000 year event.

Also, I hope Kinchen’s expectations for the tax bill come through:  “grow our economy, create jobs in our communities and let Louisianans keep more of their hard-earned money.”

I don’t visit Mitch Landrieu's New Orleans and probably never will, but it’s still good to read about one of the Louisiana cities.

Most of all, it is fun to hear a veteran’s stories. Thank you for everything.

Mayfield’s demise (James Gill) (theadvocate.com/new_orleans/opinion/james_gill/article_be85ca8c-e4cd-11e7-8cd6-534add34003a.html)

Mayfield could have developed honest integrity by which to reject Nagin’s political influence.

The preamble to the constitution for the USA divides citizens into two camps: a civic people and dissidents. Dissidents range from the ignorant, the stubborn, the arrogant, the harmful, the criminal, the evil, and beyond. Civic people collaborate using the agreement that is stated in the preamble (and the-objective-truth, which can only be discovered) rather than conflict for dominant opinion. Only the human individual has the physical and psychological power to develop fidelity.

How anyone can break the preamble’s agreement, in order to live beyond success---in other words invite woe, is amazing. Yet it happens all the time. The totality “We the People of the United States” may be asymptotically approached if most people accept their personal human power to collaborate for statutory justice and take the authority to discover and establish civic peace.

The hapless Mayfield volunteered to provide a modern, extreme example of the woe begged by not observing the preamble. Priest-politician-partnerships beg woe all the time, but famous trumpeters, not so much.

A note about the preamble: unity, as civically moral, works just fine. However, religious unity, political unity or the partnership begs woe. I prefer integrity as both understanding and wholeness to unity.

To JT McQuitty: As always, I'm grateful for your comment and citation.

Misplaced fidelity (Rich Lowry) (message-forum.net/threads/fake-news-what-about-a-fake-magazine-cover.125828/#post-1425729)

I do not envy Lowry’s pitch for the GOP. The train to restore the American republic and make American great at last has left the station and Lowry is waving goodbye.

The train was empowered by people who voted for Donald Trump twice:  Once to defeat the GOP and the second time to defeat Alinsky-Marxist organizers who would use liberation collectivism to overthrow the ineluctable human march toward authority for responsible freedom; in other words, statutory justice; in other words, civic peace where human responsibility prevails.

The enthusiasm for trade with Cuba seems like personal interest to me.

I certainly don’t want any more official tourism on the people’s tab.
