sha·man
noun
: shaman; plural noun: shamans
a person regarded as having access to, and influence in, the
world of good and evil spirits, especially among some
peoples of northern Asia and North America. Typically such
people enter a trance state during a ritual, and practice
divination and healing.

Are you unable to look up a definition?  The word is
generally taught to children under 10.

Such as what?  All I do is ask questions and point out where
some statements must lead.

Can you give a specific reference to where I have posted a
belief?  I have been accused of this many times over the
years but somehow no one ever seems to be able to prove it
with a direct link.

Somehow I can say "I have yet to see any valid evidence
supporting the existence of any god." and have someone
demand I prove there is no god.

Some of the Republican positions I find disgusting and abhorrent.
Most of the Democratic positions I find terrifying.

Whatever it takes - Stop the Democrats.

The most dangerous enemies the United States has:

Biden the Senile Bastard and his Bitch and 
supported by the Sluts and Pimps including 
Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 
Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, Jamaal Bowman, 
Cori Bush, Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters, Jerry Nadler, 
Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and Cory Booker.  They 
have stepped over the line and are working against 
the country and what it stands for. 

Stop the Green Raw Deal!

I dare call it treason. 

Do not work with them but oppose everything they attempt.

I don't know how Baghdad Karine can still hold a straight
face with what she has to say.

Did the last sane person leaving California remember to
turn off the lights?  Can New York be far behind?

Abortion should be like any other medical procedure
and be the decision of the patient and the doctor.  
It is the business of no one else.

I support a Pro-Choice Constitutional Amendment.

Don't build a wall, build a kill zone.
