Face the Nation = #NeverTrump
Thank you so much, AB, for your dedication in posting this thread every Sunday.
I will only be watching Paul Manafort and Pence.
The rest is more of the same Trump bashing.
How about the real Donald J. Trump in CT last night?
The “Blue Dress” rally.
CBS has loaded a full quiver of Trump bashers, I see.
Morning AB, All.
As always, thank you AB for doing this thread so reliably.
Couple of items this week might make you smile.
Oh, and thanks Bray for weekly wisdom and yon commenters for fleshing it all out for me.
Let us begin by announcing, proudly, my claim to fame as regards the olympics and that is I ONCE DATED MICHAEL PHELPS’ FATHER!
Okay, I didn’t exactly “date” him. But I was in high school with him in Towson, Maryland. I knew him but barely. Still, many years ago when Michael Phelps arose in the Olympic scene I initially thought it was Michael Phelps my classmate and, of course, I was amazed. Goodness, I thought, how on earth did one so old get into the olympics. At the time I think I was in my 50’s when I first noted Michael Phelps but I didn’t know it was my classmate Michael Phelps’ SON.
Or something.
Anyway, my questionable Olympic claim to fame.
Next….guess what I did last week? Yes I did. I JOINED A GYM!!!
It was meant to be folks. I do exercise every morning, walking circles around my yard for almost a mile. But these legs of mine, with my sludge for blood, are losing blood flow and I figure I am young enough now to do those exercises.
This Friday I will be joining a Zumba class! DANCING! Lord I was meant to dance!
And my health insurance, a Medicare Advantage Plan which Obama let Delaware and Florida keep despite Obamacare cause we are filled with old people. Cigna it is and they paid for every penny of my gym membership, even my dance classes!
Man I got on that bicycle and with my playlist going on I was one happy guy! I also did upper torso exercises for no mind the legs, the upper half of my body is strong and healthy.
Finally I went to mass yesterday and this morning I read the Pastor’s Pen.
Wow. Seems Father Thomas Flowers, pastor of a church on TULIP drive, has issues with the pope. Oh, and homosexuals. Let me post a few excerpts
“Natural law is the basis for almost all standard moral intuitions. Original Sin predi8sposes us to lie, to steal, to be selfish, even to hate, but the predisposition never justifies giving in to the temptation. Nature teaches us what ought to be. The natural sexual partner for a human being is a person of the opposite sex. Therefore, homosexual coupling is sinful”
He began this missive with a sharp but kind slap at Pope Francis, a pope WHO DOES NOT SPEAK FOR ME PEOPLE, JUST SO YOU KNOW THAT!
I happen to know that Father Tom has issues with the pope. Trust me, I know this.
He goes on to warn us that we must love and treat homosexuals with respect because, well he’s got to say that number one, but number two, who treats homosexuals badly? Sure, there are rude and rubes everywhere but most homosexual deaths last year was caused by some nutball Muslim.
But here’s the big surprise, bearing in mind that my church sits solidly in one of the largest homosexual communities on the east coast, Rehoboth Beach, look it up. In fact, that so-called “Conservative Writer”, David Brooks, lives smack dab in the middle of Rehoboth Beach.
“At the request of some parishionsers, at 6:30 pm on the 4th Wed. of each month, we are going to meet under the auspices of COURAGE, a Catholic organization who encourages and assists homosexuals to live a chaste and holy life. There is a strong preference that a priest always be present, so I am making this commitment.”
Wow. Well I just don’t know what the hell to think.
But I will tell you all this if you don’t tell nobody. Father Tom is a heterosexual.
Don’t ask me how I know this but you can smile.
Anyway….will begin talking about politics and the Sunday Talk Shows because I am a political junkee and not necessarily proud of it.
Now Chris is upset Trump is lowering taxes on the evil Rich and no relief on the Middle Class like Hillary does.
Now Chris is saying Trump gives himself a tax cut. He really likes Hillary’s tax plan and hates Trump’s.
Now the old 2/3 of tax cuts go to the wealthy and that is not just.
Face the Nation loaded up with nothing but Trump bashers, mostly former RINO Bushies that’ll tell you how bad Trump is for national security. Globalist/cheap labor Republicans for Clinton.
Are you the cleanup crew for that piece of crap Trump?
Are you going to stop Trump from banning the press?
Why don’t you hate Trump as much as I do? Do you ever shake your head?
Newt now on FNC citing that as bad as Milwaukee is 99 were shot in Chicago in only the last week.Where is the coverage in Chicago?
I haven’t watched a Sunday morning talk show since 2008. Feels good.
FOX Faux “News”
Then, Wallace promises that he will soon get back to his lovefest
with Hillary Clinton.
Interview with the very intelligent Gov. Pence
who amazingly tolerates the interruptive Wallace.
Wallace repeats his opening, and
Gov. Mike Pence redirects the clueless Wallace.
Instead of showing the evidence showing the Clinton crime family,
and Clinton arming ISIS, and creating Benghazi,
FOX “News” shows Clinton kissing and hugging
as Fox moderator plays Wallace-the-dunce asking,
“Is there any evidence?”
Pence says “yes”.
“Foreign donors.” Wallace interrupts.
Pence: “Public has right to know.”
He explains Clinton’s lack of trustworthiness.
So Wallace changes the subject to ISIS and Clinton,
and defends his Queen.
Wallace makes light of the growing gout of evidence and
again plays Wallace-the-dunce.
Pence: “He (Trump on discussing the ISIS-Clinton connection)
was being very serious.”
Wallace will have none of it and interrupts twice.
Pence, tolerating the fool, explains there are “failed policies in the
middle east.”
Wallace will have none of it and interrupts again,
and goes back to the made up nonsense about emails
and Russians foised by ... Fox “News”.
Pence defends Mr. Trump.
Wallace next decides to help ISIS.
Wallace: “What is his plan (for taking them out)?
Pence says he will find out soon.
Wallace will have none of that, either, and interrupts
citing Sen. Collins, and the “50” criminals who
armed ISIS and helped Clinton cover it up. (see post 28)
Pence correctly reminds the liar, interrupter Wallace
of Reagan, and Wallace takes a hit
to his Romney-dreaming,Soros-paid gut.
So Wallace changes the subject to taxes,
refusing to discuss the evidence of arming ISIS.
On and on it goes with Wallace attempting to take out
Mr. Trump and Gov. Pence, but it is a failure.
Bottom Line : TKO by Gov. Pence against a blazing fool.
