We have continued to move left with politics and the culture. Most of you are tired of having to live with liberal policies and see your kids exposed to things you know are wrong. Suddenly the Bill Clinton on the right arrives and you have no problem accepting so many things. Eminent domain is ok now, someone who had multiple affairs with married women (read his book-remember Obamas book that told so much?) now you don't want to read who this arrogant man really is? How are you different then liberal voters who are ok with the things they do? If we lower the bar so low our children, grandchildren, and generations to come will suffer.

So your line is no raping to performing sexual acts? If we know this much about him, how much don’t we know?

“So if your wife, daughter, granddaughter wants to strip for a living”

I probably shouldn’t ask, but how, in the world, is it possible that you can take a comment I said about Moore — that he is an amnesty pimp, which he is -— and extend it the thing about stripping for a living?

A cow has finally landed the moon. LOL!!

Where do you get off moralizing about anybody, yourself rolling around in slander with no rebuttal, accusing, libeling, and pointing to some damn source up there with the name “Christian” in it’s title.

Oh. I forgot. You’re with the Cruz dirty ops campaign, peddling religion to hawk for votes, (while you’re working your misinformation operation over here).

Nuff said. I need a bicarbonate to endure your stuff.

Trump’s sex life does not interest me. I remember Billy Graham telling that old bjClinton would make a mighty fine preacher...and the evangelicals LOVED old bjClinton. Perhaps you might be better served reading what Jesus said and leave trump’s sins up to The Creator.

Eminent domain is way down the imminent threat list. So is harming the Gospel.

Again, I’m a Cruz guy, but if Trump gets the nomination I will support him to the hilt against Hillary or Sanders.

How can a mere man threaten the Gospel?

The leader of the free world, yes. Look at what Obama did. Look how innocent children learned about oral sex. Schools reported increase in oral sex in middle and high schools after that happened. Shouldn’t people strive for what is good and right?

Are you claiming the leader of the free world has the power to edit the Gospel? Isn’t that a high reach?

I think you’re trying to say he may set a bad example. Maybe so. But you might also look to the example he set for his children and how that worked out.

We need business. We need jobs. We need to kill and bomb the crap out of the Muslims in the middle east and Africa that rape kids, behead and burn other Muslims, Christians, Hindus, Atheists and so on and want to bring that crap over here. We need someone that will stand up to the Cartels and Mexico. We need someone for America and it’s people. If he liked women in his past, ok. We have had enough bowing and worrying about Climatey Changey and how much money someone makes and hurt feelings in the WH already.


Mark 8:36 New King James Version

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

How many times have you heard someone whine, “Judge not, that ye be not judged?” This verse of Scripture from Matthew 7:1 is often quoted out of context by people who are terrified at the idea of someone preaching against sin or pointing out any form of error in anyone, especially in themselves.

As I stood in a voting line one day I overheard a woman justifying her foolish choice for president by saying, “Well, we aren’t supposed to judge.” Imagine that! Choosing NOT to judge a political candidate on election day! No wonder our nation is in such a mess!

As for Matthew 7:1, the context (verses 1-5) allows judging after you have first judged YOURSELF. Jesus did not make a blanket statement against judgment. He simply pointed out a RULE for judging.

Now, the word “judge” in its various forms (judgeth, judging, judgment, judges, etc) is found over 700 times in God’s word. One whole book of the Bible is titled “Judges” for it was written at a time when God raised up judges to lead His people.

As we are about to see, God EXPECTS His people to judge. In fact, you are sinning against God if you refuse to judge! (Read that again, please)

God Expects Us to Judge

“The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment.” (Psa. 37:30) A righteous person will talk of judgment. He will not REFUSE to judge. He will talk judgment.

“Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken. Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.” (Amos 5:14-15) How can you hate the evil and love the good if you refuse to judge? You can’t. You are SINNING when you refuse to judge.

Shouldn’t people strive for what is good and right?

Why are Ted Cruz and his supporters, like yourself, silent in the face of rampant profanity, fornication, and drunkeness of the United States Armed Forces ? Are you a threat to the Gospel ? And there is gambling too; what is Cruz's plan to stop all this ?

No man can edit the bible, but he can lead people in the wrong direction. Power of the bully pulpit. We have lots of people here who is accepting a man who would condemn the right for doing exactly the same thing.

If I don’t answer later, my iPad is down to 21%. Good back and forth.

Let us all guess, was Linda Frances a Hall Monitor, at sKool?
Maybe, the inspiration for Judy Hensler


Lol. I care about Freepers. I care about this country. The left moved this country morally to the edge of hell. We fought them and lost a lot of battles. I know we will win the war. I don’t want our kids to say we accept immorality. Every generation seems to do worse, but we can change that. We can be a light in the liberal darkness.

Beside trump wears a toupee. Haha.
