-The Supremes

von Herbert Kuhner am 26. Juni 2022 um 10:29
Veröffentlicht in: Allgemein, Polemics, Politics

Supreme Renaissance

Yes Folks the Supremes have brought about Renaissance of the Knitting Needle and the Back-Street Abortion (As our former POTUS promised. Grab them by the – – – – -!”)

Hallelujah!!

 

The Advocates

The male advocates of abortion often seem to be the gropers, molesters and rapists. The Supremes want to impose THEIR alleged morality on us, while engaging in disreputable behavior. One Supreme was an attempted rapist in young years.

Here’s a description of another:

“He spoke about acts that he had seen in pornographic films involving such matters as women having sex with animals and films showing group sex or rape scenes. He was drinking a Coke in his office, he got up from the table at which we were working, went over to his desk to get the Coke, looked at the can and asked, ‘Who has put pubic hair on my Coke?’”

Pardon me, folks! I’ve got to go out and barf.

 

Shenanigans South of the Border

This is the official image of soon-to-be St. Oscar Arnulfo Romero. Msgr. Rafael Urrutia shared the official prayer card image during a meeting with San Salvador’s archbishop and others, and someone posted it to social media. (CNS photo/Twitter via @arzobispadoss) See ROMERO-PRAYER-CARD June 26, 2018. Editor’s note: Best images available.

“While Bishop Oscar Romero lived, John Paul II reprimanded him thrice in private, once even asking him to align himself with the Salvadoran dictatorship. Romero refused, calling the request ‘unjust.’” from Jesus Our Shepherd Website.

Fingering a Saint! A Saint was cancelled out by a Saint!

And then BAM; BAM!

 

Bishop Romero’s Successors

In 1995, Pope John Paul II appointed Fernando Sáenz Lacalle, an Opus Dei member, archbishop for San Salvador. Lacalle was instrumental in having harsh anti-abortion laws established. A woman who has had abortion can be sentenced to thirty years in prison.
If a woman is brought to a hospital, and she suspected of having undergone a botched abortion, she is tied to her bed and serves as an exhibit of the crime committed.
(Sam Harris: Letter to a Christian Nation, Alfred Knopf, New York. 2006; Jack Hitt: “Pro-Life Nation,” New York Times, April 9, 2006.)

Praise for an 11-Year-Old Victim

In July of 2013 Chilean President Sebastian Pinera praised an 11-year-old rape victim who is pregnant, who stated: “It will be like having a doll in my arms.” Abortion is illegal in this country under all circumstances.

 

Child Denied Abortion

Amnesty International, April 29, 2015: Paraguay: The life of a 10-year-old girl who is pregnant after having been raped by her stepfather is in danger. The physical and psychological impact of forcing this young girl to continue with an unwanted pregnancy is tantamount to torture,” said Amnesty International’s Guadalupe Marengo  “The Paraguayan authorities cannot sit idly by while this young rape-survivor is forced to endure more agony and torment.” (They did!)
Pope Francis in the Holy City said not a word! He visited Paraguay and stayed mum!

This is what is in store for:
The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

-Shooting Up he Place

von Herbert Kuhner am 1. Juni 2022 um 20:35
Veröffentlicht in: Allgemein, Polemics, Politics

Shooting Up he Place

 

The Don’s’ moniker for Corona is “Kung Flu,”
and he repeatedly refers to the “China Virus.”

Who would deny that the birthplace
of this scourge is the “People’s Republic?”

So, if you are stuck with “a sex addiction,”
and are “deeply religious” to boot,
and are having “a bad day,”
and there’s  an assault weapon at your disposal,
why not head for a massage parlor and shoot up the place?

And if you’re just mad at the world,
any location will do.

 

 

 
Spokesman for the Weapons Lobby

There have been massacres in schools,
college campuses, shopping malls, movie theaters, churches
and even in an army fort.

People must be able to protect themselves.
The only answer is arms.

Now, you are right to assert that a pistol is no match
for a man in body armor who totes an assault weapon.

What’s the answer? As Spokesman for the” Weapons” Lobby,
I say that there has to be a security guard armed with a bazooka.

-Rušimo granice | Überwinden wir Grenzen | Breaking down Borders

SRDAČNO POZIVAMO! / WIR LADEN HERZLICH EIN!

SR/MI, 01.06.2022. / 20:00

CENTAR.LITERATURA
Rušimo granice | Überwinden wir Grenzen | Breaking down Borders

Hrvatski centar| Kroatisches Zentrum – Schwindgasse 14, IV Beč / Wien

(Herausgeber: Petar Tyran und Herbert Kuhner).

 

Präsentation der dreisprachigen Anthologie zeitgenössischer Lyrik aus der alten kroatischen Diaspora „Rušimo granice | Überwinden wir Grenzen | Breaking down Borders“
Die Originaltexte lesen die Autor*innen selbst, die Übersetzungen Kornelia Mikula (Deutsch) und Herbert Kuhner (Englisch). Das Buch ist im Rahmen des Österreichischen PEN im Löcker Verlag, Wien 2022, erschienen.


Hawks and Nightingales/Ptici i slauji, edited by Tyran and Kuhner and published in 1983,
was the first collection of poetry by the Burgenland Croatian ethnic group in Austria.
This anthology established Burgenland Croatian poetry in Austria
and won an English readership for it.
Breaking Down Borders includes new poetry by Burgenland Croatians in Austria,
as well as poetry by authors in Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic
who write in the Burgenland Croatian dialect.
Borders successfully presents the spirit of a small ethnic group
that must struggle to maintain its cultural and lingual identity.
Poetry is the confirmation of language.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lingual Music and Rhythm

Each language has its own music and rhythm.
It is the poet’s business to bring out
that music and rhythm in his lingual work.

It is the translator’s business to transfer
the music and rhythm of the poet’s language
into the lingual music and rhythm
that is innate in the translator’s language.

Poetry is the confirmation of language.

 

Translating the Poetry of the Burgenland Croatians

It is my singular honor to have translated the poetry
of the Burgenland Croatians into English.
This small lingual enclave is engaged in the laudable task
of attempting to preserve its language and culture by poetry,
which is the conformation of language. In view of the violence
and cruelty that dominates our world now, we must show
that we are committed to the cause of culture. This cause has
always been contrary to barbarism, but regretfully barbarism
always make a comeback both individually and communally
It is the task of the poet to counter the dominance of brutality
by a dedication to the word in its purest form. Telling it,
is a way of countering it.

 

 

-Supreme Leaking

Supreme Leaking

A hero or a heroine leaked that the Supreme Court was getting ready to overturn Roe v Wade in order to bring about a Renaissance of the Knitting Needle and the Back-Street Abortion (As our former POTUS promised. (“Grab them by the – – – – -!”) Hallelujah!!!

“While Bishop Oscar Romero lived, John Paul II reprimanded him thrice in private, once even asking him to align himself with the Salvadoran dictatorship. Romero refused, calling the request ‘unjust.

-Past and Present Deeds Are Placed in Proper Perspective

Past and Present Deeds
Are Placed in Proper Perspective

 

In a speech before the World Zionist Congress in Jerusalem, Bibi Netanyahu described a meeting between Hitler and the Mufti of Jerusalem November of 1941:“Hitler didn’t want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he merely wanted to expel them. He got the idea from the Mufti. Haj Amin al-Husseini said, “If you expel them, they’ll all come here.” “So what should I do with them?” Hitler asks. ‘Burn them!’ the Mufti replied.”

Sergei Lavrov

Sergei Lavrov, Russia’s distinguished Foreign Minister has joined the ranks of nouveau historians. Here he is on the subject of race: “I could be wrong, but Hitler also had Jewish blood. That is absolutely inconsequential. Astute Jews claim that the most ardent anti-Semites are usually Jewish!”

Congratulations to these tyro historians! They have made essential revelations. Genuine tried-and-true historians can only learn from them.

Let’s go back to Henry Morgan, the humorist – not the pirate: “Everybody is an anti-Semite, except a few Jews, and they’re not sure.”

While I make my jokes, people are being slaughtered in the Ukraine by the invading Soldsateska.
