He wasn’t on very long, defending his “pirate” comments. He also stated he’d like to serve in the Trump Administration
I love your idea of blackening his eyes.
Also his lips.....he spoke with a strange lisp.
I am on to big news here, folks, and you read it first on the SUNDAY MORNING POLITICAL TALK SHOW THREAD!!!
The question is...WHO BEAT UP JOHN KERRY?
Heads were exploding here listening to her. No one stood up. One can see the niche angles being honed on the coverage... like everywhere Trump goes, hoards of Supremacists follow. SMH
I don't know about the "wild West"...but the crazy founding fathers fought a revolution over much less.
Could those be injuries from flying ashtrays?
You need to enroll in RCIA—Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, every Catholic parish should have one. They’re NOT just for anyone thinking about coming into the Catholic Church, but for EVERYONE, including and especially for Catholics who haven’t gone to any Catholic education classes since childhood.
In any case, there are succinct and full explanations for each one of that Baptist pastor’s questions about Catholicism, and it is only fair that you get them answered/rebutted by someone who knows the correct answer.
Yes, Peter WAS married, but he already had a wife and kids when he and his brother were called by Jesus (”Come, let Me make you fishers of men”).
Saint Paul does indeed urge males who are deeply involved in the Mission of Christ to remain celibate. It is not a REQUIREMENT, but it is something the Catholic Church asks its ordained to do—even though there ACTUALLY some married priests, from the Anglican community, now in the Catholic Church. SO—celibacy is not mandatory, but traditional.
Anyway, Saint Paul’s words are right there in the Bible. It seems rather devious to me that a Baptist pastor would not mention THAT, as it is Scripture, which they’re all supposed to know by heart...
In any case, don’t let me be the one to answer any questions you have, but give YOUR Church at least the opportunity to do so. There is a lot, and I mean A LOT, of good information and answers out there since we were kids in Catechism.
New National Poll Shows Trump Up By 3 Points Over Clinton.
Excerpt:
“As Clinton stumbles, Trump takes an apparent slim lead in new tracking poll”–the headline to Lauter’s story about the survey–which “marks a significant shift in a race that most polls indicated Clinton has led since mid-May.”
Exactly Jane. Just goes to show you these assclowns have no intention at all to talk about the real issues. All they will have is to blast Trump and use other clowns like bill crystal over at abc who is making stuffy stephy's day by "never trumping" the Donald over and over.
It's really sick as Jane says that the dems have literally nothing to run on. Not a single issue that can be considered an issue effecting the country only made up clap trap about this group or that group that are losers and how their dem-masters will give them our assets as they have for 50 years now and how that will solve everything.
No wonder 47% fall for it. Free lunch is an easy sell.
Let's see them try and sell a true issue.
Prayers that God will lead/show you the way.
My Japanese eggplant is doing really well here in upstate SC. I forgot about the white variety and will plant some. Thanks.
Well AB I specifically put up some tidbits to tempt you. That bit about St. Peter being married surprised me.
and celibacy isn’t mandatory?
Heh.
well whatever.
We do have RCIA in our church, but of course. And I tell you what.....I will think about it.
Then there’s the issue of my confirmation but for another day perhaps.
Cleveland Chief of Police Williams being interviewed on FTN regarding the various measures being taken to deal with the protesters expected during the convention.
Some mention of the open carry New Black Panthers.
Reporting breaking news of multiple officers shot in Baton Rouge.
If he didn't, I did! :)
Yeah Wallace was in full but but but but but but mode.
Here is a take on Recip Erdogan, a brutal dictator in Turkey, has been up to over at AT. Pretty good stuff from a gal how should know.
Looks like the coup in Turkey was little more than a setup to get rid or all of erdongans political enemies in one fail sweep. His biggest political enemy is still in the U.S. Looks like we can't get him, Gulen, back to zeros buddy recep until the heat is off and Turkey is off the front pages.Zero is running to save his legacy of pillage and plunder you know.
Women are demeaned there, as I can tell you personally from many experiences with ugly street and commercial interactions with men who have never deemed a woman worthy of a polite gesture.
We mention “men” throughout since in the month I spent in Turkey, I seldom saw or spoke with a woman, as they seemed not to be apparent except skittering out of the corner of your eye, doing some household task. Most of the day, and especially at night, men ruled. Men drooled. Men smoked kief. Men lolled at tables in cafes and eyeballed the unigender passing scene.
But horrible as are Turkish Muslim men to their women (and all women) and each other, Erdoğan's unenlightened return to regressive primitivism and old-style sharia-islamism does not help.
Though it is by all accounts too early to determine what precisely the upshot of the 300 dead, the 1,000+ men wounded, and the carnage still apparent on the roads and cobblestones, Erdoğan is not the man our country ought to be backing. Even with a significant air base signal in our countering the activist terrorists known as ISIS.
He has consolidated power, killed off oppositional strongmen, instituted even more rigorous and oppressive legal constructs to set himself up as leader-for-a lifetime. The populace of Turkey will not be better off than it was a month ago; worse, in fact.
An unusually complex situation is made more problematic by our officials jumping in prematurely with their foolish assertions of support for a “democratically elected leader.” That is so only in the most tenuous sense. And as Erdoğan’s governance has become ever more tsarist or caliph-like, it ill serves the jittery US to be servicing the galactic dreams of a despot who has proven unsavory, unreliable and unhelpful in the long-ago and quite-recent past.
Northern Cyprus, invaded by Turkey in 1974, is a prime example of the destructive and insular arrogance of this war-drum-beating country. The northern half of Cyprus -- the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus -- controlled and managed in a grip of steel by faraway Turkey is a wreck, hulks of once-thriving high-rises standing forlorn and battered by weather, untenanted by their owners, now living on the Greek side of the Island. N Turkey is dependent on Turkey for economic, military and political sustenance. All attempts to rectify this situation of foreign occupying force have fallen in the UN chambers, unsuccessful.
When I asked repeatedly, in Cyprus, why the Cypriots did not take back their island and heal itself, I was informed, by grieving officials, that Turkey is “too powerful,” that their “Army is too overwhelming,” and that little Defenseless Cyprus has absolutely no chance against the Turks. The Turks maintain a large garrison military force even today in this captive territory. It raises not an eyebrow.
So endlessly, it molders, a relic of once-prosperous wholeness. Erdoğan’s megalith to feckless grabbiness and total control.
We will see in days oncoming the result of this attempt at overthrowing a force for antediluvian Islamism. Our hopes reside on the side of the burdened and profoundly unhappy Turkish people, and against the forces of Obama-supported steamroller corruptocrat, Recep T. Erdoğan, occasional enemy, unreliable “friend.”
No telling with that crowd he hangs with.
Thanks for that RG.
Below is a link to an article by one of your faves, Fay Voshell.
It’s not for faint of heart but well-written.
I shall be meeting with Fay soon. Anything you want me to say to her?
Fay is simply awesome and in this piece she pulls no punches. She tells it like it is.
Tell her I hello, keep doing the great work she does and don’t stop fighting the good fight.The forces of evil will not win.
Here is a clip from your link.
“The fatal flaw of the European Union has been its leaders’ assumption that human beings and nations can be regulated and managed as easily and thoroughly as cabbages are grown, bought and sold.
Reductionism is always the Achilles heel of ideological zealots, who in the case of Brussels’ bureaucrats, are committed to a solely materialist view of humanity and nations. We have seen the “successes” of the materialist view of humanity and nations in the past, most notably in the form of communist ideology, which purportedly would end all class structures and therefore all wars, as class struggle due to economic inequality was the chief cause of violence. End the class system and establish equality, especially economic equality, and peace would ensue.
The ideology behind the EU is also materialist in nature, and therefore very similar to that of communist and socialist beliefs. “Equality” is the goal, with the accompanying postulation that the end of nation states is a realistic solution to the internecine wars that have afflicted Europe, especially the wars of the twentieth century. Nations are seen as the cause of violence, and as such inherently evil. End national identities as once classes were to be eliminated; and establish a super state which encourages uniformity of nations along with the obliteration of differences among humans, and peace will reign. Laws and regulations for the economic union would establish equality among humans, tribes and nations as surely as one can establish the proper length of bananas.”
