Why Iridescent lens

-
Iridescent: 

Lens: 
  • a piece of glass or other transparent substance with curved sides for concentrating or dispersing light rays, used singly (as in a magnifying glass) or with other lenses (as in a telescope).
  • ▪the light-gathering device of a camera, typically containing a group of compound lenses.
  • ▪an object or device that focuses or otherwise modifies the direction of movement of light, sound, electrons, etc.

I like to see with color. I like to see the color when darkness occurs too. I want to be "light gathering" and I want to see "from different angles" as I consider politics, direction, thought, and inspiration.  Thus the title of my new blog, Iridescent Lens.

It's Time to Impeach Trump

Time and again I've been dragged down the Trumphole in the past few years. His loud and demeaning presence draws my attention time and again. I just can't believe that we elected an individual to be President of the United States who spends considerable time demeaning hard working Americans day in and day out, a man who appears to say whatever he wants when he wants whether it is true or not and a man who appears to lead for self interest, wealth, and power for himself and a few cronies here and abroad. Like many, the 2016 Presidential election was frustrating. I was listening to all sides, reading articles, and watching news shows to learn about the many candidates. In the end, I voted for Hillary Clinton because I felt that she was the best candidate for the job. She had the experience and her work illustrated her care for children and what's best for the country. Like many Americans on election night, I thought Hillary would win. The polls demonstrated that she was le

Is President Trump Demonstrating Fidelity to the Oath of Office?

No American has the monopoly on truth. No American has all the answers. No American is without strengths or flaws. All of us are human, and it is in our best interests to move ourselves, our loved ones, our neighbors, and our country ahead in ways that elevate the lives of all. This is what makes a strong, successful, just country. History shows us what self-centered, narrow-minded, do-it-yourself leaders do to the livelihood, potential, beauty, and promise people hold for good government, good laws, and a healthy planet. History demonstrates that destructive leaders divide, incite hate, take apart good systems, promote prejudice, and stand in the way of the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness possible. As we think about what makes a good leader versus a bad leader, we need to think about what we expect from our leaders. The United States Constitution clearly defines what elected leaders are obligated to do. In the preamble, we get the big picture of who and what a presi

Trump Times: Indictment

-
#MuellerTime and #MuellerMonday tweets abound today as word of the indictment of Manafort and Gates spread through media of all kinds. This is a turning point for the investigation of Russian influence over the 2016 Presidential campaign. As I think of this news, I am thinking about why President Trump has been the all-time most disappointing President in my lifetime. The bottom line is that President Trump is a rude, disrespectful, and unthoughtful man--his tweets continually inflame, name call, spread mistruths, and exaggerate reality. His contempt for almost anyone that doesn't do as he pleases at the moment he pleases it is childlike and worrisome. His social media interface paints him as an erratic, infantile, non-trustworthy, and rash individual who does not take the job of President of the United States and the law of our land, The United States Constitution, seriously.  He laments "fake news" yet it's his own news, his tweets, that demonstrate poor attitu
