tinnitus photography Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 “Throughout his career, Judge Moore has been a tireless champion of religious liberty, standing down those who want nothing less than to rid our nation of its Judeo-Christian foundations,” said Dobson, who has known Moore for more than 15 years.religious liberty, as long as you agree it's the one he holds to be true.

calvino Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 god help us ---- It's great that Trump's pick lost, but having Moore in the Senate is pretty scary. I haven't completely fact checked the below but it was taken from a Washington Post article: Regarding Moore: Moore has been a birther (though unlike Trump he hasn’t renounced it), suggested President Obama was a Muslim, and said the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks were punishment from God. He has compared a congressman taking the oath of office on a Koran to doing so on Hitler’s “Mein Kampf.” He has also served as a columnist at the conspiracy-theory site World Net Daily. He even said Tuesday that there is Sharia law in the United States right now -- "as I understand it, in Illinois, Indiana." Yes, President Trump has latched on to some of this stuff, but the sum total has no precedent in recent American politics. one quick search the below link popped up. And this man was elected to the US Senate. Democracy sure has it's flaws... (guess Moore rode his horse to his voting station to cast his own ballot - nice touch) https://qz.com/1088001/roy-moore-likely-to-become-the-next-senator-from-alabama-has-a-history-of-racism/ Link to post Share on other sites
John Smith Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 god help us ---- It's great that Trump's pick lost, but having Moore in the Senate is pretty scary.Trump is already deleting tweets where he was supporting strange and is acting like he was for Moore all along. In fact during a speech he threw major shade at Strange while Strange was on stage next to him. So he kind of abandoned strange during the race. Link to post Share on other sites

I forgot about that - I thought for the time being he was going to replace the Sessions' seat. I guess the Democrat has been polling close, recently - but it definitely will be hard take the general. But one never knows. Hopefully the D's and moderate R's/I's come out and actually vote in the general. Link to post Share on other sites
lost highway Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 I thought it interesting when reports said that Trump and McConnell had backed an "establishment figure" and how an upstart had won. If I'm correct, many Trump supporters still see him as challenging the establishment, when he is the establishment. Sure it's a new regime, but there's a new definition for "business as usual in Washington" and that business is full of cronies, but also dysfunctional. Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 "He knew what he signed up for..." Did Trump really say that? I always use the Tony Soprano line (yelled during a fight with Carm) "You knew what you was gettin into!" when my wife complains about me wanting to grill (again). Link to post Share on other sites

I always use the Tony Soprano line (yelled during a fight with Carm) "You knew what you was gettin into!" when my wife complains about me wanting to grill (again). Now Trump says that's fake news and he can prove it. Knowing full well that he'll never have to prove it because communication between a president and a grieving widow is not something that can or should be made public. Meanwhile, the Trump apologists are claiming that it's a compliment to say that line to the family of dead soldiers. Link to post Share on other sites

John Smith Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 One of the problems for the family is that Donnie Two Scoops didn’t even know the soldiers name. In a way this fact is being supported by Two Scoops. When talking about the call he still does not mention LaDavids name and refers to his spouse as the wife. So, he doesn’t know her name either. If it’s not about Two Scoops he doesn’t really care. He only pretends to care just enough to turn attention inwards to himself. Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Heartbreak Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 He is such a fucking turd. It’s incredibly galling for those of us from the northeast, who have known for 30 years what a turd he is, to see people still defending him. We can’t sink much lower as a country.

lost highway Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 We live in an era where I am forced to acknowledge that George W Bush might have made the world ripe for Trumpism through his foreign policy disasters and economic blunders, but he's totally right about Trump and I'm glad he said it. Hey neoliberal, thanks for calling out the populist you're right about him and he was right about you! Link to post Share on other sites
John Smith Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Trump is the natural step in the process that started with Goldwater and progressed through Nixon Reagan and Bush jr. Bush sr is the outlier here. If you want a funny/sad non political example of trumps obstinance and inability to admit that he might not always be right, google Trimp and Renoir. It’s just bizarre Edit: whoops, sorry, I just realized this Renoir topic was already covered. My bad. Link to post Share on other sites

Lammycat Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 someone told him it was a Renoir.And someone (Art Institute of Chicago spokesperson Amanda Hicks) told him it wasn't. .If it's been hanging in the same spot since 1933, there's a good chance Amanda may be on to something here.But, even if it’s not a real Renoir his is better than the original.
