#38 Absolutely.

Although I must admit, that's not the first-time that answers from God that were not forthcoming.

So, just hold your breath ...

Meanwhile ...

#31 But, since it is the weekend... and it is Sunday ...

#31 Or perhaps ...

#31 While you're sitting there not knowing ...

#26 Hey, bj boi, never - and I mean never - say that I never gave you any helpful advice:

Holy hand job, Jesus!

#26 Gosh, bj boi, what in Heaven's name will He do about this:

#26 Oh? And just what is "He" gonna do?

I'll wait for His response.

Because A_Friend is patient.

#38 Ah, yes, the "occasionally" word.

It carries a lot of weight, that word does.

For example, when my doctor asks me if I drink, I tell him "Only occasionally."

Of course, come around 5:00pm each day becomes an occasion all by itself.

So, here we are. :-)

#36 Why, you're 100% correct, Doc.

"I would vote for any democrat who stands against AIPAC. Like Thomas Massie has."

Thomas Massie isn't a Democrat.

You're welcome.

#22 In the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ...

You're welcome, bj boi ...

#3 I wonder what this great planet, not to mention the USA, will look like in the year 2276CE?

#20 "It's taxpayer money given for a specific purpose. The person or agency providing the money may certainly put expectations on it."

Gosh.

While billions/trillions of dollars are disappeared into the great MIC, ole bj boi here is oh-so concerned that a hungry person might just buy some food to eat. You know, the very specific purpose it was given in the first place.

With "Christians" like bj boi, it isn't suffer the little children unto Me.

Nope.

With bj boi and his fellow "Christians" it is "suffer the little children, cause I got mine ... Now fuq off, little children"

Doc, Thank you for posting this excellent thread. 'Tis much appreciated.

Coriolanus, your #3 is not only an excellent view of real history, but it should also be required reading by anyone seeking to understand where we are in America in 2026.

Thank you.

"We need strong Progressive People in Charge."

Yeah?

And just how are "we" supposed to accomplish that?

"Republicans who stand up to AIPAC like Thomas Massie are better than go along Democrats."

I would rather have Jerry Nadler be the Chair of his US House committee, instead of the Republican, Scott Fitzgerald.

I would rather have Rosa DeLauro be the Chair of the Appropriations committee, instead of the Republican, Tom Cole.

I would rather have Adam Smith be the Chair of the Armed Services committee, instead of the Republican, Mike Rogers.

I would rather have Gregory Meeks be the Chair of the Foreign Affairs committee, instead of the Republican, Brian Mast.

I would rather have Bennie Thompson be the Chair of the Homeland Security committee, instead of the Republican, Andrew Garbarino.

I would rather have Jamie Raskin be the Chair of the Judiciary committee, instead of the Republican, Jim Jordan

Quite obviously, Effeteposer likes and much prefers the shirt-sleeved repulsive, pedophile Republican, Jim Jordan over the Democrat (and member of the Democratic National Committee, the DNC), Jamie Raskin.

Why is that, Effette?

Give me the confidence of a mediocre MAGA man hiding behind his false bravado.

Seriously, I wish I had whatever lack of awareness these men possess so that I could just skate through life and never have to face any consequences from anything I say or do.
