The HartBeat Ensemble – A Community Art Project Worthy of Public Support

 
Our youth need creative outlets to keep them off of the streets which hold many opportunities for danger and trouble. The HartBeat Ensemble is just one of several Community Art Groups that offer the youth of our cities and towns an alternative to just “hanging out”. Most of these community groups are Non-Profits with little funding but lots of potential and dedicated volunteers.

Celebrate our youth and the arts by getting involved in any one of the many Community Groups – over the coming months we will showcasing some of the works and youth that are working in the Hartford area.

You do not always have to give money to show support, your TIME or Skills for many of these groups is actually more valuable. Reach out and support the men and women who are working with our youth to find out how you can be a supportive assistant to find out what their needs are.

Coalition Building – Can we work together?

Can the Right and the Left build bridges and coalitions to be able to make the state and maybe the country a better place?

Can we find common ground to start from to solve some of the problems we face?

Can Conservatives, Republicans, Unaffiliated, Independents, Democrats & Liberals find the common ground & work together to solve the many problems in our state and country is a question that I’ve been mulling around since last week when 2 democrats showed up at a conservative meeting in late Feb that was accidently posted publicly comparing it to the town hall meetings where the “Indivisible” group members were in a “Lovefest” with the democrats vs the Bullying that was done at the republican town hall meetings….

I have friends and family that are democrats as well as republican, libertarian and unaffiliated like most of us do and when it’s a one on one discussion even if we do not agree 100% on the issues we can talk civilly and agree to disagree on some items all of the people I know agree that the destruction of property that is being shown is just plain wrong.

One thing that I have noticed is that my right leaning friends know more about many of the issues but my left leaning ones do not. In fact it seems that my left leaning friends are surprised to hear about some of the issues because they’ve not been told about the items which are the problems because the media many times do not cover an issue in full or at all…

Many times the issues that the right side groups have are not spoken about in the media or if they are the media has such a warped coverage that it’s more “propaganda” than actual news coverage…

While the leaders of the right have no real outreach into the public their message and information is not getting out to the public but the leaders of these left-wing groups have the megaphones of the liberal left-wing media newspapers, television news and radio.

One question is why is only the left-wing given the ear of the public that the right just does not have? Where can people go to get educated on both sides of the issues?

How can people work together when the proper information is not put in front of them so that Informed Decisions can be made by the public? When people have both sides of an issue we can talk about what the problems are and how we can solve the problems.

What are your thoughts about what can be done to correct this problem? Leave your thoughts below in the comments.

Other important questions you should ask yourself is “Who Benefits from an Misinformed or Under-Informed Public?” and “Why are the media going along with this?”.

For fifty years, Charles Schulz drew the most influential comic strip in the world. Key to the enduring success of Peanuts is the characters’ deep connection to the most poignant elements of human nature: crushing despair and joyful exuberance. These are also the defining emotions of Christian experience: the hopelessness of our fallen existence, and the exaltation of our redemption in Christ. By embodying these existential responses in little children, Schulz magnifies emotional impact and reveals deep truths about the human condition.

The Little Governor that Roared Malloy vs Trump

Malloy is once again out on the campaign trail & on the attack of our now sworn in President Donald Trump.

With his dreams of going to an appointed position down in DC down the drain with Hillary failing to win the presidential seat; Malloy is starting out on his re-election campaign by being the attack dog of the left barking at the heels of the president who has said that he is going to stop for a while the refugees that are coming in from the countries that are in wars with our US Military engaged & has additionally threatened to remove funding for cities that are violating the immigration laws…

 

What are your thoughts on what Malloy has to say?

Can the state of CT afford to lose the federal funding that it gets when so many of our cities are already hurting?

Can we taxpayers afford to pick up the tab for Hartford, Bridgeport & New Haven as they lose their federal funding & start very expensive lawsuits to fight in the courts the laws which are not currently being upheld?

Our immigration process is in need of fixing & the problem of illegal immigration is quite complex with children having been brought here by their parents what suggestions do you have to rectify the problems?

The Pinch

Sharing this repost from last year because the New General Assembly members are now officially seated & they need encouragement & reminder calls about why we voted for them to be in office

The democrats have been in power for many decades, some of them have been in office for longer than 30 years. They have gotten arrogant in their attitudes & they have grown protective of their expensive pet projects that benefit only their crony friends while putting our families at both financial as well as physical risk.

The democrats have gotten to be experts at both spending our tax money on wasteful projects & luxury items for themselves but additionally they have become experts in hiding the true costs when they roll items up & put them into the bonding.

Call your elected officials at the state capitol this week

Tell them to Work on Balancing the Budget by making the cuts that are needed instead of cutting services that help our families.
Now is the time for our elected officials to get to work towards starting the much needed downsizing of our government.
They can start by cutting the extra expenses that they have forced us to pay for like big cuts to the CEP Program.
The CEP aka Citizens Election Program gives taxpayer money to the candidates that have “qualified” by raising certain levels of money. The amount varies by race & party but the amounts are in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for state senate & state rep positions & in the millions for the statewide races.
That money can be better spent making certain that we have the needed services for the families that are needed.
