My hypocritical Trumpanzee family members just loved Billy Graham. Yet I suspect ChristianityToday will be tossed on the pile of “fake news”.

#MeToo

Just texted it to papa. He's a serious bible guy not just a cultist but he's trumpy as hell anyways. I warned him that this mag and editor would get destroyed by the evangelical community tommorrow. Let's see what happens
 
I've actually been to a Billy Graham event.
My parents are nuts...I remember at the end when he wants people to come down and "accept the lord Jesus as your saviour," they looked at me, hopefully, maybe even praying.

Lol, stupid parents.

I think I was 13 when I got suckered into walking down the aisle at one of those. Fucking cultists.
 
I'm so sorry

They’re also my neighbours. My extended family had to enact a strict “no Trump” rule at all major holidays to stop them from singing his praises at family dinners. But they sort of beat around the bush and bring up Trump adjacent topics so they can work in buzzwords like “snowflakes”. It’s truly something to behold.

Tomorrow? Oh no, they’ve started already, apparently it’s a “radical leftist rag”.
 
Always remember that there are more self identified dems than pubs, and that a large segment of so called indies are tea party wannabe libertarian types.

I'm aware of the numbers. Independents make up a plurality of the electorate. The common thread is their distaste for partisan politics like those going on with impeachment. In terms of self-identified Dems and Repubs, these get reported in various ways (reigstered + leaning or just registered).
 


The guy who raped the 9 year old served only one year of a 23 year sentence. When asked the ex-GOP governor accused the 9 year old of lying.

My days of church stopped at ash Wednesday when my brother and I sat in the pew after getting the ashes on our foreheads and kept saying it burns.

Parents kind of clued in at that point we left the flock
 
I suppose you feel that way about the reality of the constitution then?
The reality of the Constitution... Which part? The Imperial Presidency? Doesn't exist. That the Executive is claiming privileges it doesn't have? Congress has the right to subpoena stuff. In reality almost all Presidents have gotten the response wrong to that. They should have to initiate the Court challenge of said subpoena just like if I was served a subpoena for my tax records.. I have to go to court to quash the subpoena.

Here is a link where Obama was forced to turn over what I typically would find to be executive privilege https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...thhold-benghazi-records-idUSBRE94G0VZ20130517
deliberations to me should be covered. ACTS should not be... But a court thought differently.

Here's a quote: “I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them,” said Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who accused the administration of trying to “stonewall Congress at every turn.”

Apparently Trump doing it is all cool. To a FAR LARGER extent.

You may not like how the Democrats used the rules passed by the Republican house in 2015 to do the lead up to the Articles of Impeachment but to say that they were unfair after having to work within said rules when the President was a Democrat doesn't' stand up to any scrutiny.

Like I said if Trump was fighting for 1 or 2 things I wouldn't back an obstruction of Congress charge. and would want it to go through the courts. but the Whole sale "FU" Has to be responded to differently. If I refused w/o going to court I'd end up in jail for contempt of court.

Where did the Congress not obey the Constitution? (the House in particular)to me here is no conflict in this..
Trump was even invited to the Judiciary hearings and he declined (He has that right) sure the deck was stacked against the minority... Aparently that was all cool with Republicans as long as they were in power.. <Heh>
