America Under A Strong Delusion

The Word on Politics ^ | 2/19/16 | Andy Woods

[taxcontrol]

The delusion is simply this: The Republican party is a party of conservative values.

[pgkdan]

Why do I believe that America is now at this delicate tipping point? Largely, it is because of the meteoric rise of a person like Donald Trump in American politics. The man is a moral and verbal sewer. He has no political resume.

I'm getting more than a little tired of weak minded little men calling Donald Trump names and asserting their own moral superiority. The author is so full of himself that what he has to say is not worthy of consideration.

GO TRUMP

Scripture “quotin” makes you uneasy, does it? Atheist or Jew?

[TangibleDisgust]

it used to be that only men who owned property could vote.

we had a pretty damned good government in those days.

coincidence???

You can research who Andy Woods is as easily as I can.

This article is about politics, politics and religion are intertwined.

[Gaffer]

You don’t want to actually tell who this guy is, do you? I already know and you don’t want it advertised.

[freddy005]

This guy is right! The U.S. population is too stupid and too much down the drain and to far gone that even God can’t help her! Can’t wait to read his next article of what country he chose to patriate to after he leaves this sewer called the U.S.? sarc~

None of our Founders would have considered going forward without contemplating Divine Providence, and understanding He establishes nations, and takes them down.

So yeah, it's kinda important.

I think he is right. We have lost our protection. We were the new Israel.

Amen I have been thinking this for a while now

[dforest]

Just sickening. Ugh!

[VanDeKoik]

“The blog pimping by the day shift Cruz campaign is in full swing.”

And all it consists of is:

You are stupid.
Trump really hasn’t won anything.

and...

God hates you.

[Aquamarine]

Why the insult? You should prove how the author is wrong not attack me for posting it.

These people who write this stuff, still don't get it from my of view. All the critics of Trump seem to want to emphasize that he has held other positions on issues before he started running. That his supporters just aren't informed enough to make the "right" decision. Like we're blithering idiots or something and can't make up our own minds without them coaching us into their preferred candidate. Phooey!

I am so sick and tired of existing politicians saying one thing and then doing another that I am swearing off voting for another politician this time around. I don't care if Trump is not as conservative as Cruz or Reagan. I do care that he isn't a politician and likes to go in swinging and take names later. He exudes success and being a winner. I want that kind of guy to lead America again. Being rough around the edges doesn't bother me at all. Because that is the real world, not the scripted world of the establishment politicians.

So, yeah, I may not know all the details of what Trump has said or done in the past. I don't really care. But what I do know is that he sounds and looks like a real winner and leader that we need now in DC. Enough of the same-old, same-old. I want to try something (and someone) new this time around.

One side has taken a look at all the facts, weighted them, looked at the contemporary setting, evaluated what is needed, realized the qualifications of the candidates, and as made a decision.

The other side which is very unhappy, is still stuck looking at just part of the facts, and coming to mostly the wrong conclusions.

America hasn’t somehow transformed by settling on this person. American transformed to the point we needed him.

Some folks have the donkey behind the cart. And I’m not going to vote for him.

Go Trump.
