Chris Matthews earns around $5 million dollars a year as an anchor and commentator on MSNBC, ‘Hardball’. A program of political commentary. In 2012, Chris Matthews is estimated to be worth $16 million. He wrangles pundits continuously with political discussions, and interrupts vehemently when they stray from his opinions. For a moderate conservative – he shows all the signs of a full time conservative both by his fortunes, and his political positions. His constant haranguing Bernie Sanders position as a Democratic Socialist is a carry over from his history in government and living in fear of any words which include socialism. It is obvious that he would prefer Mrs. Clinton with her connections to wall street, and the wealthy she dances with. Credibility is earned as a true journalist when a pundit adheres to a middle-of-the-road position. Chris Mathews is no longer capable of not showing his age, background, and wealth.

Well, I went and done it! I fulfilled a promise to myself. There comes a time when you must modify a principal to maintain sanity. What am I getting to?
I am writing a novel that is not historical. Something I said I would never do. And I love working on this one.
Like Louis L’Amour, I harbour a deep profound love of western writing. And I cherish good quality western movies.
So, here goes, but first an explanation or the reason. Because it is there. It is there in the form of a screenplay written for a very good western. Kevin Costner starred in, and produced (Tig Productions), a movie titled, “Open Range”. Costarring Robert Duvall the movie screamed for a sequel at the end. So I wrote a sequel. When there was no interest I decided to turn the sequel into a novel. So there.
Let me backtrack. When I say it is not historical–that is not exactly true. As the outline began to gel consider me surprised when my research screamed for me to write in a smattering of historical content. Can’t seem to help myself.

The title–glad you asked. TRIAL of TEARS

About time the President moves on the do-nothing congress concerning immigration reform. It is criminal to leave families in limbo awaiting fair representation. These people are no different from you and I. We are all immigrants – unless you come from ancestors living here before the europeans came and stole the continent from the rightful indigenous people. I am writing a new novel concerning an era when thousands and thousands of indians were misplaced, and slaughtered. Their lives were destroyed by religion and cultural differences.

I am sickened by what my research shows of the greed and ignorance of our white ancestors. Stop racism and cultural hate – NOW!

Bernie Sanders, junior Senator from Vermont has expressed an interest in becoming President of the United States as a Democrat. Take time out of your busy schedule to consider supporting a progressive with wonderful credentials. 

I cannot forgive my country for falling so far into the abyss of ignorance. Mid term elections are not elections – they are distractions enabling the weak in our cultures to capture the moment. We have a president who when elected struck a nerve in the psyche of the American people. The racism which exists as a bubbling cauldron below the surface was made to rise into sheer madness, mayhem, and burst forth with abandon. The result is a faction who recognized the opportunity to buy into that ignorance, and make it pay.

All of the acheivements attained by our great heroes of the past will now be downgraded and discarded. The greatest threats to the planet will be minimized by the money-mongers and allowed to fester and threaten our lives and future.

Today is the last day of this person of any affiliation with any party. The nazis are now in control.
