The Brief: Mike Pence’s promises to the EU are meaningless [barf]
EurActiv ^ | Feb 20, 2017 (updated: 7:00) | James Crisp

Today brought the US vice-president’s first official visit to Brussels and the first taste of the Trump Tea Party for presidents Juncker and Tusk.

Mike Pence has all the charisma of a chair leg but with less capacity for love, compassion and charity. He styles himself as a devout Christian but his political career has been driven and defined by hate. He hates abortion. He hates man-made climate change. He hates gays, stem cell research and refugees. He hates reporters and refused to take any questions from the press. Even the foreign minister of Cuba, no democracy, managed to do that on his visit. […]

The EU needed something, anything, to rebut all the convincing evidence that Trump doesn’t like the EU. Pence offered empty assurances but with caveats. He said the US would hold Russia to account but added that Trump was looking to break new common ground with the Kremlin. Frankly, who cares what he actually said? Why would anyone believe a word of it? This is a man who would happily condemn thousands of women to deadly, backstreet abortions. …

The propaganda is getting quite vile out of the last hope for democracy that is dictatorial, isn’t it?

Journalism is now at the level of monkeys at the zoo — they pull stuff out of their butts and fling it at anyone they don’t like.

Liberals have the ability to look into your soul and see your thoughts.

And they can do it from thousands of miles away, on the other side of the Atlantic ocean.

Europe,with the possibly exception of Britain,is well on its way to having committed cultural suicide.IMO we should basically write them off as a lost cause.

Judging by this bilious screed, he is bucking to be a censor rather than a moderator. He’d fit in well with Minitrue, gleefully casting the truth down the memory hole.

Lately, i’ve been seeing the word “love” from the same people that don’t have a problem with others assaulting people and destroying other people’s private property in the name of “protesting” Trump.

I'd say he has an opinion and that's pretty much all it is. True, Pence does hate abortion, but I'm not so sure that's a negative, but this clown does. Trying to find "pure fact" in this article is like trying to find truffles in a Walmart parking lot. To me, this guy is little more than an imported Snowflake.

Don’t ask me where Mr. Crisp learned to write. If this screed were put into speech, he would be out of breath by the second paragraph.

Note the flipping of Good and Evil. We used to REBUKE sin—veryone who wanted to be in politics, anyways. Now we REBUKE God.

We have flipped 2000 years of Ethics back to the Babylonian paganism of Ba’al Rites.....the Rite to sodomize others, the Rite to kill babies in the womb, the Rite to theft (socialism/welfare) which creates Slaves of the Virtuous and eliminates true charity (Love).

We mock God and mock God’s Laws which mocks Natural Law Theory which is based on the Laws of Nature and nature’s God. There is Design in science, otherwise there would be no science, and so the most rational religion and most Just religion has ALWAYS been Christianity since St. Thomas Aquinas wrote the Summa which aligns God’s Word, with God’s Acts (Laws of Nature). Logic and Reason is removed from “Just Law” which is not possible in a “Just” culture because it is an essential part of our US Justice System.

Remove Reason (which Marxist “gender” theory does) and remove Logic from children (All Common Core destroys the minds of children) and you get snowflakes, people incapable of being “human” (using Reason).

Pence is a worry, though, because of the Flynn incident and the gossip is that his “best friend” is a pedophile (in the pizza-gate world pedophile sex ring that has been operating our of Brussels/UK and Wash. DC for 100 year by the psychopathic sodomite elites) who wants to remove the understanding of Natural Law (Common Sense) from all children to warp and destroy all natural instincts so that concepts of mother and father are eliminated (Communist Manifesto). Common Core and Goals 2000 subvert (flips) ideology of children—it is psychological warfare on vulnerable minds to program into socialism (group-non-think factories).

They have to normalize vice (sodomy/babykilling) to destroy virtue formation in children. Normalizing vice will make irrational slaves for the State-—dumb ignorant people (snowflakes) who belief that Slavery is Freedom and Boys are Girls-—total dehumanization of Man (transhumanism of J. Huxley so that Reason is destroyed in children and they have compartmentalized brains which are never integrated for critical thinking.)

Wisdom is being able to discern Good and Evil (Cicero) and we are destroying the ability for children to understand Good and Evil-—because the skools are embedding the habits of dependency, “group-non-think”, vice (baby-killing/”gender” theory (Marxism) confusion/ and hate for self if white and/or Christian).

They have to destroy the Christian Worldview to get irrational satanists/pagans, or islamic or tribal minds. Minds removed from Reality and Truth (God).
