You nailed it. I could not have said it any better. The issue of penises in women’s restrooms is a revolting one but it is near rock bottom on the list of 1000 most important issues. First things first. Get rid of political correctness and get in power. Then stomp the sh*t out of the queers and perverts who keep crossing and trying to tear down the lines of decency and proper social decorum. As of now they can stick their fudge packers into their ears in public in front of a Church. But their days are numbered and they won’t be deterring us in the meantime from mending our fences and preparing to secure our zones.

I keep my tagline, as a reminder that the actual perverts are NOT the only ones going to be held to account... The majority are 'Lot's wife', and do not give a damn about poking their finger in God's eye. Then this moron plays like a preacher lecturing US about Christian protection. Thirty + years ago I NEVER sent my children into a public restroom alone. And I regardless of laws, check out any restroom before I enter... I am NOT opposed to NC law, but that law is not going to keep perverts doing what they are inclined to do... And all these that decide to punish the economy of NC, I am free to boycott... It is not anywhere near the concerns of a presidential candidate.

Too many calling themselves conservative love the Soviet style bureaucracy, and write policy papers by the tonnage, thinking they are the 'smartest' people God ever created.

Hey, no kidding. No one running for public office is my protector. My protector is the Lord Jesus Christ. None other is to be trusted. Every single one of the candidates running will fail us, either through their own personal beliefs or their own personal habits. That is what happens in a fallen world.

Well said! This is the sort of commentary we see every election, trying to get those excitable Christians all riled up about some candidate the Left is afraid of. It’s become laughable. The vast majority of us realize we’re electing a President, not a “Christian protector,” whatever that is.

Thank you. Christ had a lot to say about those that come in His name... some of them He says He never knew. I am exhausted by these that wear Jesus like costume jewelry, but in reality are ravenous wolves.

I have mixed feelings about this too. Why is the GOP making promises that they can’t keep? Life of the mother might be one about which even sincere ethicists might disagree; the law about triage situations is well established, and a church might rightly exhort a higher position than one we would expect a government to exhort.

I’d try to deal with rape/incest situations from the standpoint of enhanced social support for women caught in these circumstances, to carry the baby to term and permit it to be adopted if they still do not wish to raise it. The sense that it is an unbearable insult to a woman to require her to gestate a baby that is the result of a rape, is one that dies hard. But it is easy to get momentum behind a meme that this is a beautiful thing for a woman in such a situation to choose, because the baby is not the rapist.

To express a difference between ideals and what Caesar will penalize failure to meet, may be wisdom if it represents a better, more honest position than we have been taking to date.

Agree, but we adults need to help make aware the children just coming up and the children inhabiting adult bodies, of the many lies and deceptions all around.

You are describing conservatism, personal, individual responsibility... Unfortunately, common core education has stripped 'common sense' away and 'we the people' in far too many numbers, rely upon a nanny government.

Townhall is run by Salem communications. Almost all their talking heads spend hours bashing Trump.


I’ve noticed townhall does seem to have a lot of the most viscous anti Trumpers. Caught a bit of one show going on and on about “moron” Trump last weekend.

I don’t think these folks realize the damage they are doing to “conservative” media. You can’t unring these bells, IMO. I’ll never have much interest in “conservative” media again.

Because they don’t care. It’s just primary season red meat for the base. They make promises they have ZERO intention of ever keeping.

No, I don’t have any faith or trust in Trump. Nor do I have any faith or trust in any candidate the GOP might dredge up. Nor do I have any faith or trust in the American people. Or anything to do with the country.

The whole damned nation has become a sick, demented, faggoty hellhole, and I don’t have any remote belief left that it’s going to turn around. All I’m going to do is perhaps buy some marshmallows to cook over the flames as they continue to engulf this sick, sorry shadow of a formerly great nation.

I don’t know anything about the much-beleaguered “common core” that requires this. It has suggested some questionable math techniques (maybe ones that are better suited to mental math than to paper math) but I see it scapegoated when it never presumed to command the entire academic cloud around it. Lazy, amoral teachers seem to be a worse problem.

Thanks, this explains the motivation of some of those posters, who really hate Trump!:

Hillary announced she spent a million dollars on internet trolls. Leftists love personal attacks. The math isn't hard.


Which begs the question, who is paying Kaslin for these persistent, scurrilous Trump-attacks? Or is Kaslin working for free, and for who? All I ever see from that poster are consistent and persistent hit pieces on Trump. At least Cincinatus Wife had the grace to (apparently) take a break from her own personal anti-Trump jihad.

There is coming a time here on FR where I believe it will be necessary to move from the *Zotting* of individual Trump-hating trolls, to lobbing some Old Testament style lightning bolts and dispatch the purveyors of this kind of crap. Who benefits from these articles? Do they contribute to unifying everyone behind our presumptive nominee, or do they promote dissension on FR, and provide more ammo to the 'RATS for the general election?

You might burn even more brilliantly than your neighbors, with that attitude.

I’m just sick of the mindless retorts to what should be seen as an opportunity to have discussions based on critical thinking and reasoning out conservative philosophy. I’ll admit, one of my earliest post nearly 18 years ago was about a study showing drinking beer made women’s breasts larger (hardly the stuff of Locke or DeToqueville, but it did provide some needed levity).

These words are the definition of 'common core'.

NO they aren’t; common core is a curriculum, not a standard for teachers that they dare not exceed.

FRC PRAISES CRUZ DE-REG PLANS TAKING GOVERNMENT OUT OF RELIGION
America’s Christian bakers and florists and wedding planners will be safe under a Ted Cruz presidency. “I am absolutely convinced in my discussions with the senator that religious liberty will be a lot better off in America with a Cruz administration,” Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council and Chair of Cruz’s Religious Liberty Advisory Council emphsized when endorsing Cruz.These are the policies that he is going to pursue,” Perkins announced. “He is absolutely committed to the issue of religious liberty

The council was calling on Cruz to direct a review of the IRS’ treatment of religious organizations and to direct federal agencies to respect the free exercise of religion. Cruz said he will Defend and protect small business owners facing assault for refusing to violate their religious beliefs.

“ Rescind Executive Order 13672 – an order that requires certain federal contractors to not discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity; - Direct all federal agencies to stop interpreting “sex” to include “sexual orientation” and/or “gender identity.” - Direct the Department of Health and Human Services to eliminate its requirement that all employers include coverage for all FDA-approved contraceptive methods and sterilization procedures;.

“As president, I have pledged on my first day in office to rescind every single one of President Obama’s unconstitutional executive actions, and to direct every federal agency to respect and protect the religious liberty of every American ,” This was the Cruz response to the claim of running for pastor ridicule made by the Trump campaign which does not seem to realize there is a war declared on religious values by the Godless democrats..

Absolutely. But still, a lot of these “articles” keep on getting posted.

Please tell me, are you saying you think I should be killed at some point because I differ from you on my idea of who best represents conservatism?
