GOP congressmen/women fear the Trump base in their own State/District.

#7 | Posted by eberly

A more honest way to put it is - GOP congressmen/women are choosing to put america in the hands of a sociopathic moron instead of standing up to defend their country from him per the oath they took.

What you don't understand is that Christians are obligated to vote. By your standards, we would not be able to vote for anyone because they all fall short of God's standard, every single on of them. If you think that the Dems are righteous and pure, you must be blind.

If you can't tell what party's platform is more in line with jesus' teachings, then you have been failed by not only your schools but your church.

Speak-you might want to go take a class on the Bible. Oh, by the way, it is God, not god. If you think it as that, you definitely don't know God or anything about His Word.

A famous Dem once said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Being lazy and depending on the gov't free handouts, goes against that. Free, Free, Free, that is what the leaders say, but nothing is free.

Everyone should work. That is why there should be term limits on all gov't leaders, so they would actually work for once.

#118 | Posted by phinphan

I don't need a class on your mythology. There are 3000 religions in the world. You think 2999 of them are wrong. I think one more than you is wrong.

I'm sure you've spent lots of time fighting against cutting the estate tax right? Since you're so concerned with everyone needing to work.

What is your response going to be when st peter asks you why you supported leaders who took from the poor so they could give to the rich?

Learning from history is not a republican trait.

The whole Bible is the Word of God.

#116 | Posted by phinphan

Then if you've ever eaten shellfish, you have ignored the word of god.

Your case against the dems is basically "They only try to take care of people so that people will vote for them."
Uh yeah. That's how government is SUPPOSED to work stupid.

Repubs don't think they should work. They think THE POOR should work, and the rich should be able to inherit so much money that they never have to lift a finger.

Liberals used to care about corruption - you now longer have even earned the title of Liberal - you are Leftist hacks, nothing more.

#5 | Posted by Get_Real_Now

Watching a trump cult member pretend to care about corruption is adorable.

#97 Where you are mistaken is that Jesus is talking to individuals, not the government. People are too take care of and help people. The libs are not following that, they are stealing. Do you actually think that Pelosi and all her minions care for the poor. It is easy to help someone with other people's money. The only thing that the Dems do is promote self-reliance on the gov't and victimhood. Watch Larry Elder's Uncle Tom. All Dems should watch that and maybe they might learn something.

#113 | Posted by phinphan

In a democracy, the government executes the will of individuals.
You can't vote for the party that takes healthcare from the poor to give tax cuts to the rich and pretend you give a damn about jesus' teachings.

I recall this same exact rhetoric coming from Reps during Obama's term. Same old rhetoric every time a new person is POTUS. And depending on which side you are on will determine what you believe instead of actually looking at the facts and coming to an intelligent conclusion.

#8 | Posted by humtake

BOTH SIDES bullcrap.

Obama put sanctions on putin for invading ukraine.
Putin installed trump to remove those sanctions. Trump did all he could to fulfill that command. Even a republican led congress had to pass legislation to prevent trump from doing putin's bidding.

All your cult can do is PRETEND the other side is as bad as you are, when facts say otherwise.

Bill, your honesty, empathy and kindness is like a breath of fresh air here.
Hopefully it will rub off on some of the liberal hate mongers, but I doubt it.

#104 | Posted by phesterOBoyle

Your cult leader is a hate monger.

You love hate mongers. You just don't like when people hate you in return.

I agree feeding the poor is Biblical and the last I saw America has a well developed network where people do get help.

#100 | Posted by BillJohnson

So by your logic, by electing the party that wants to feed the poor less, you are casting an anti-biblical vote.

Have you prepped your excuses for St Peter?

Your attempt to integrate my religious and political views are a futile effort.

#92 | Posted by BillJohnson

And your attempt to dodge the fundemental anti christian nature of the republican platform is an amusing one.

What are you going to say to St. Peter when he asks you why you supported a group of people who were so hateful to immigrants and so cruel to the poor?

"The breakthrough discovery was made by a German-Finnish team of researchers led by neuroscientists Mika Simons, Technical University of Munich, Germany and virologist Giuseppe Balistreri, Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences, University of Helsinki, Finland."

Wait I thought all the best medical breakthroughs came from america. At least that's what the health care system and their puppets use as an excuse for why americans pay so much more than everywhere else on earth.

This breakthrough was discovered by... SOCIALISTS!

"Officials also blame Meadows for not doing more to rein in Trump. Among the complaints: That he should have tried to stop Trump from giving Bob Woodward practically unfettered access "

Translation - trump is losing because people are seeing the truth about him. His teams' job was to hide the truth from the country.

Trump's financial ties to putin were never investigated, yet repubs declare that everything has been investigated and trump was exonerated.

He was "exonerated" by an investigation that he used his power to limit and thwart. He refused to testify under oath. Only in the republican bubble of delusion is that an "exoneration".

It's been obvious from since 2016 that trump is putin's puppet.

I have yet to hear one plausible theory for how rex tillerson got appointed secretary of state.

He had NO experience. No relationship with trump. All he was was putin's favorite oil CEO.
His company had a half TRILLION dollar deal with putin that couldnt progress because of sanctions.

Putin picked tillerson for trump. And many of his other anti-nato cabinet members.

Someday we'll find out how much money trump owes putin or how putin could expose trump.

The attributes listed are what I do. I can't control Trump. And he does not live rent free in my head 24/7.

#76 | Posted by phesterOBoyle

That's because you choose to ignore every bad thing he does.

And you can control him by not voting for that behavior. But you choose to reward and encourage his behavior instead, which will only make other cult members follow the trump path in the future.

Bill speaks with humility and respect. No wonder you left wing hangdowns hate him.

#78 | Posted by phesterOBoyle

Since when does the trump cult care about humility or respect?

Speak,

"No we're trying to shame you for ignoring the most fundamental element of your religion"

Jesus was asked what are the 2 greatest commandments.

He said the first is to Love God with all your Heart Soul and Mind.

And the second was to love your neighbor as you love yourself.

I believe Jesus would point out that any religion teaches to love your neighbor. Any sinner...any heathen...and atheist teaches to love your neighbor.

Jesus would say, I believe, "Do you love the Father?" Jesus would put that first.

Without love for God, you are not pleasing God.

#64 | Posted by BillJohnson

You use christianity to justify your vote for republicans because they are anti abortion.

How many times did jesus mention abortion, versus how many times he he mention caring for the poor, the sick, and the immigrant?

Really...you're trying to shame me for supporting republicans just because I am willing for vote for Trump.

And I have no interest in playing your games.

#56 | Posted by BillJohnson

No we're trying to shame you for ignoring the most fundamental element of your religion - care for the poor - and voting for the opposite of that while wrapping yourself in claims of moral christianity.

Is the positivity rate on a downward trend in some areas like New York State?

Are there folks predicting that continuing or leveling off at some level?

#19 | Posted by eberly a

That depends on if the country elects leadership like new york state or alabama.

Since you are interested in Jesus now, He also instructed us to remove planks from our own eyes before we condemn others for having splinters in theirs.

I've said on here before we all responsible for our own lives and are accountable as such.

#48 | Posted by BillJohnson

What did Jesus say about voting for people who take healthcare from the poor so they can give tax cuts to the rich?

Speak,

No...I won't read that.

Not interested.

#43 | Posted by BillJohnson

Good idea. I think the best strategy for justifying your trump vote is to remain ignorant as much as possible.

#39 | Posted by BillJohnson

Here ya go Bill. Here's an article about you. Would you recognize the antichrist if he arrived?
"Could American Evangelicals Spot the Antichrist? Here Are the Biblical Predictions:"

Really...the GOP is finished....really?

I mean...really finished...this time they are really really finished....this time they are...I mean it.

#35 | Posted by BillJohnson

Only fool would ever believe the GOP was finished. As long as greed, racism, fear, and hatred exist within humans, the GOP will always have a good shot at winning.
