I see words ‘attributed’ as ‘described by’ and ‘alleged on Facebook’ but I see no tapes, videos or recordings or otherwise about. Merely describing and alleging is warrant enough to convict?

She didn’t actually attack her religion or her faith.

Most of us would probably agree that voting for a Democrat is a vote for Satan, irregardless of religion or faith.

You can scratch the Hawaii 2nd District off your (R) pick up list.

Liberals and leftists demonize their opponents all the time. This isn't even demonization. Liberals hate Christians and don't vote for them because they are Christians. Double standards abound as always.

Going solely on the name, I’m guessing the R candidate is supportive of Hawaii independence. Having said that, what was allegedly said was wrong on so many levels.

How long before Trump gets blamed?

Why?

Tactically?

I think personal beliefs of candidates are fair game for voters to include in their decisions.

Why is it wrong?

Enumerate the levels.

It’s time for Tulsi to support Donald Trump

The Hindu pantheon of gods is comprised of good and bad guys. There are, quite literally, thousands of gods worshipped by Hindi.

What is the matter with these people? So far as I can tell, the Hindus are not a problem. The Muslims on the other hand....

I live in HI CD - 2
and it is always a sad affair .
The utterly negligent Hawaii Republican Party ALWAYS fails to find and field any decent candidate ,that has any chance of winning .
Usually it’s a Honolulu outskirts person who has zero neighbor island affiliations. .
CD-2 should be the neighbor islands ONLY and NOT INCLUDE any part of so-called ‘ rural Oahu ‘ . The CD-2 Rep should be from a neighbor island , NOT Oahu . Tulsi is a Oahuan , born and raised and just makes an occasional show of touring around on the neighbor islands in order to schmooze her constituency.
Again this year , no tangible opposition , and no HRP support . In fact , as you can see here , the HRP chooses to attack the only candidate opposing Tulsi . HRP is nothing but an extension of the Never Trumper ethos .
auwe auwe

“War veteran Tulsi Gabbard who has opposed both Obama and Hillary needs to switch to the Republican party.”

She supports Bernie Sanders. And Hinduism is used by Satan all the time. The best thing that could happen to Hindus world wide would be a universal abandonment of that Hinduism in favor of Christianity.

That’s ridiculous. Tulsi is another name for Holy Basil.
Basil is too fine an herb to be the Devil!

So the Republican loses again. I suppose the GOP candidate would lose in any case, but this isn't the way you want to go down.

War veteran Tulsi Gabbard who has opposed both Obama and Hillary needs to switch to the Republican party.

Her father (according to Wikipedia) is a very conservative Catholic politician who switched from the Republicans to the Democrats because he wanted to get elected.

Her mother converted to Hinduism (according to Wikipedia) and the children all have Hindu names.

Kaaihue last week described support to her as "worship (ping) the devil" and called the Democratic Party the "Devil Democratic State."

If the context of Kaaihue's message was that a vote for a Democrat candidate is support for Satan - then sure. A Party that votes 'no' to acknowledge God's Goodness at their convention; that supports unfettered abortion; that celebrates sodomite perversions; that supports pornographers; that promotes racial and class divisions and warfare; - yes that is a Party that is owned lock stock and barrel by Satan.

I agree that Hindus are not a problem, and I would not attack a Hindu.

That being said, I note that the Leftist media will be aghast at the awful Christian who engaged in such slander. Meanwhile, the same Leftist media is likely to ask a Christian:
"What is your stance on Evolution?"
"How old is the Earth?"
etc.

The "wrong" answer will brand the Christian as "stupid" and "anti-science".

Would the Leftist media ask a Hindu about their thousands of gods? About reincarnation? About Vishnu and the destruction of worlds?

Nope.

It's only OK to pick on Christians. If you turn it around and pick on "the other guy" then you're just a Hater.
