“The Sunday Morning Bray”, by Bray!
Matthew 5:21 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment
The final debate was the best in our lifetime. It defined what direction do we as a country want to go? The media wants to point to a throwaway line about not wanting to concede to her, but this debate was over in the first fifteen minutes. During those few minutes Trump did what he does best which is to expose to the entire world how radical Hillary’s position on abortion is. She is for partial birth abortion until the first breath although she may argue to allow it after that breath. This is by far the most extreme abortionist to ever run for President and now every pro-life Christian in America must be accountable to their own decision.
If you are a Christian and believe all life is precious and especially the innocent life in the womb you will no longer hide your blood covered hands, you must make a decision. Not only is Hillary a radical abortionist, this was the only issue she showed any real passion and angrily lectured America on the need to allow these evil procedures to prove your female solidarity.
Donald Trump called her out on the extreme position she had as only someone who had changed from pro-abortion to anti. He knew exactly where she was coming from and has become absolutely outraged by the barbarism of the hacking a baby apart in the womb. And then went beyond any position any Republican has ever gone on the life issue.
When the moderator asked him if he would be willing to overturn Roe v Wade he answered if he brought in 2-3 more Supreme Court Justices it would be the end of it. He actually said he would end nationwide abortion and take it to the states to decide. This is the Third Rail of politics and he picked it up and threw it across the room. Harpy was simply stunned and had no response whatsoever someone would actually not answer it like every other Republican and say it is the Law of the Land. No, he said he it was not and would end it.
If anyone is pro-life they are required to vote for Donald Trump. If you want to actually begin the first step to ending this curse on America you have to vote for Trump and make a stand against this plague. You do not have to wait for congress to do anything or watch the usual dog and pony show, he is going to abort Roe v Wade.
All of this feigned outrage about Trump not accepting the rigged election is only smoke and mirrors to take the peoples’ eyes off the real issue which is the Supreme Court. What he said is he will appoint judges that have two main criteria and that is being against abortion and protecting the 2nd amendment. This is the most important social issue in this country and it is time for the Christians to stand up as an army and make their voices heard. We need to stand up for the voices of the 60 million babies killed by abortion in this country.
It is time for pastors to take a bold stand for life and even though he may or may not be saved although many say he is, on this one issue there has never been anyone who has stood this boldly for life. George W Bush was pro-life but even he was unwilling to nominate a true pro-life judge who would say he would look at Roe. This scourge could be ended as a federal law within five to ten years as opposed to Hillary who would have partial birth abortion with the replacement of Scalia.
The one thing you have to give Hillary credit for is on this issue she is an honest abortionist, she wants babies killed well past the point they are viable. Most have complied with the American people who are solidly against partial birth abortion and settled for the first trimester. Hillary is a true radical and is not going to settle for an arbitrary point in time for a developing baby, what difference does it make?
To be honest, an abortionist knows it is a baby at conception so why settle with only destroying a third of the babies when you can kill all of them. This is being consistent even if it is being evil beyond comprehension. This is the Marxist world view of life and how easily they will discard it for their own hunger for power.
Every sanctimonious Repub who is taking a moral stand against Trump can never claim to be Pro-life ever again. We know that most only say that as a cliché to get the Christians to vote for their liberal policies every four years. In the back rooms they cuss the Christians for forcing the Independents to the Dems with our stands on abortion and homosexual marriage when the truth is the Repub trying to act like a Dem that costs elections. So, Romney, Bush, Carley, Ryan, Beck, Kristol and the rest of the NeverTrump purists can never call themselves Pro-life if they are going to vote for a Pro-Late Term Abortionist. She will make that the law of the land. You all can simply save the line of you are for protecting the life of the unborn, except Roe v Wade is settled law. Never claim to be Pro-Life again you have been exposed for who and what you are.
The Christian Church has never had someone stand up for their Pro-Life stand to the extent Trump is standing. If the Church would vote at a rate of 60% plus rather than its usual anemic 40% Trump would win in a Moral Majority landslide and needs to do just that? This is something that needs to be brought up again and again as well as the speech clause he wants to take away. The Church has had a long history and especially the Catholic church of standing for Life. It is time for Catholics to put their votes where their mouths are for this last chance. We could see the end of Roe v Wade in our lifetimes.
This election comes down to those five minutes in the debate. There is no wider distance in positions between these two people. He is for ending abortion and she is for expanding it. This is the distance as the East is from the West. The rest of the issues are simply fluff since this goes to the soul of this country. This is the ultimate divide between God and man which direction the church wants to go? We know which direction the Godless Americans want to move and now the question is which way will the Christians go? Will they vote for a flawed man who wants to do the right thing or will they wash their hands in their search for an unflawed candidate.
Lincoln was perhaps the most devout Christian President we ever had. During the Civil War when General McClellan would sit for months waiting for the perfect situation and then get defeated by the more aggressive Lee, he fired his top General and picked the drunken, cussing, womanizing Grant. When his entire cabinet objected he was a drunk Lincoln said, send him a barrel of whisky but I cannot afford to fire him, he fights. We finally have a candidate willing to fight to end abortion and as always, God chooses the last person man would pick to do his work. Now it is time for Christians to do their work and vote for Trump.
Pray America wakes
Note: The above opinion is not necessarily my own, but FReeper Bray’s. If you wish to discuss this, please ping Bray.
I will be especially interested in hearing from Priebus. If you recall he was very supportive of Trump before all the womanizing stuff took place. It will be interesting to see who he is now.
There is so much going on this week its impossible to summarize. I'm so beat up after a really tough week I'll just take things as they come.
I would expect the Cubs to be a headline on one or more shows, unless the praise of Hillary and pillory of Donald is so scripted that there is no room in the script for such a discussion.
How can they find the time, given that an 11th woman has come out to accuse Donald? And then there’s that new poll showing Hillary with a 50% lead, just like she demanded!
Priebus had better note that although all politicians
have a closet, Clinton has filled graveyards.
Foster.
Brown.
Amb Stevens
Scalia.
Seth Rich.
Assange’s lawyer.
Witnesses about to report.
Wintesses reporting to a Judge.
How many must die?
(not counting Ambassadors, Patriots and .....)
Why must the focus be on something else? .... duh.
——How many must die?——
As many as necessary to assure holding the power
Morning AB, Bray, All.
As always thank you for doing this thread every week, AB, thank you Bray for weekly wisdom the readers love and thank you yon commenters for providing us with observations to flesh it all out.
Got two, well three really but I won’t discuss my congressman, who I think may have been drunk, calling me up and telling me, for over 40 minutes, how he and “Jack” have it out every so often. Jack being Delaware Governor Jack Markell and to this day I don’t know what that was all about. Yes we have a history and all but….well heh, it was a hoot.
So we’ll begin with the Father Tom story because he told me something quite jolting.
I only met with my Pastor Father Tom Flowers due to a fluke. My bank sent me a new debit card, has a chip or something and all existing credit/debit cards are being replaced. The narrative warned to change all prior debit cards used to purchase items online, etc and I did my best to remember them all. Only I forgot the church and my weekly donation “bounced”. It had been so long ago that I set it up I needed the help of the church business manager and I went to the church office.
“Please don’t let Father Tom be there,” I prayed to God the whole drive because….well I just prefer he not be there.
Just as soon as I open the door I see Father Tom, who is quite big. “Hi, Pat,” he shouts. God never listens to my prayers sometimes it seems.
So I met with the business manager and we worked out all the kinks. As I was leaving, to meet with the BAPTIST PASTOR for God’s sake, Father Tom invites me back into the Business manager’s office. He wants to talk politics.
Well we did and Father Tom did tell me and the business manager about Nancy Pelosi, how he will quit the priesthood before he every marries two gay people, how he fears a revolt if Hillary gets elected and they will take over the church.
“I want to start teaching the parishioners how to handle persecution,” Father Tom said and I was jolted.
Could it really come to that? Then I think of ISIS and how they love to kill Christians and if Hillary wins she can allow their “refugees”-ie their “army” into the country….she will likely sell US Citizenship. Point being, once upon a time such thoughts would never happen. Now many of us consider it quite possible.
It was a fun discussion, as politics are when with other political junkees, but a little scary. The Catholic church is taking this quite serious.
Finally there is a most amazing story about my granddaughter, at least I think so.
She came to visit because her horrible mother lives in a homeless shelter and abandoned everybody, including sweet Kaitlyn, who is 12 years old, turning 13 in early December.
We had a great time with activities I planned including dying out that horrible blond in her hair that her father let her do cause he thought it would make him a cool Dad.
One of our activities had us visiting the local SPCA. For Kaitlyn does dearly love the pets, dogs yes but she adores cats. I told Kaitlyn that I was going to start a Blog featuring pets at the shelter, their pictures, their stories.
Kaitlyn goes into the SPCA and takes pictures of all the animals. “I’m going to do a Blog about MARYLAND pets up for adoption,” she says, and I snort. She’s 12 years old, only has an Iphone, no computer, how is she going to start a freaking Blog? Or so I think.
Well folks, hand to God and I got proof, Kaitlyn….our future first lady bear in mind when she marries Matthew Fish….DID START A BLOG AND SHE DID IT ALL ON AN IPHONE!
And I have proof!
Below the link to Kaitlyn’s Blog and hey, it’s far from perfect but let us bear in mind that is 12 and she did it all on an Iphone! Note how well she writes! Note how she figured out how to configure the Blog. She even posted many of the pictures she took, and included stories about Grandmom’s dogs.
There is something about Kaitlyn’s Blog which is very obvious to me. Should any of yon readers visit Kaitlyn’s Blog….see if you notice it.

Anyway, I worked for AT&T for 15 years back in my youth, the AT&T that was once a huge monopoly and I worked for AT&T when Reagan broke it up.
Since Trump is talking huge issues with big companies merging to take over entire markets I am going to tell my story about working for a monopoly and why America should be looking out for the problems they cause.
THIS WEEK (ABC): Joel Benenson, adviser to Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton
Ask Benenson about Clinton’s middle-out economic scheme?
1. there is no evidence middle-out has ever worked, anywhere. No state, no other country.
2. there are fewer Americans in middle class due to this approach by the last President.
I’m back. At least for awhile. Surgery this week was a success although my legs are sore and my groin is as well.
Still, you’re right. Lots going on and there’s too much to comment on all of it. I have to admit, getting away from politics for a few weeks has been great although we’ve watched Trump when he’s been on air. Trump has been repetitious but I’m sure that’s needed for people who don’t watch him that often.
Lol!
Middle-out economics is just another liberal Utopia. Economist may observe middle-out growth in an economy after it happens, but to grow an economy from the middle-out is experimental and never been proven.
The middle class first need jobs to be middle class.
National Media:
“Mr. Kaine - can I call you Tim? - do you and Hillary have the same favorite Miley Cyrus song or do you prefer another?
“Kellyanne, Donald Trump is being compared to a modern-day Adolph Hitler - how do you excuse his obvious racism and justify supporting a fascist?”
BURN DOWN THE MEDIA
We have a merry go round at the border with illegals in and illegals out giving the adm. big numbers to brag about as far as how many they are sending back. Problem is it's a revolving door. The economy is a disaster almost 100 million stopped looking for work. So unemployment numbers are vapidly meaningless.
The middle class is struggling like never before no wage increases in a bad economy growing at less than 1%. Zero gave us double the debt in his soon to be eight years. He had more debt than all the other presidents put together!!You could do an entire debate on just that!
The mid- east/N.Africa is a quagmire with chaos the order of the day. We are now leading from behind which puts the Chicoms/Russians/Iranians in charge. Just what we didn't need.
Our new "friends" are the Cubans,who are clamping down on their citizens more now that obama said its all right-- bad players in Central America and the Venezuelans buddies of Iran with their missiles pointed at us.
Such a decline in the US in eight years could never have been anticipated.! Yet Trump still finds time to complain about more mundane things like who he will sue, who accused him of what and other less issues of import which is all the media will report.I suppose that's just who he is.
I had to spend valuable time bringing back close friends to the Trump Train over the weekend. It's tough to do when he refuses to listen to his kids, wife, or Kellyanne. Thank God for the supporters. He's more popular than ever and his appearances make Hillary look like the Communist she is. Hopefully, the polls are wrong and researchers like the Benenson group are on to something.
http://media.wix.com/ugd/0cf371_514bfe6a2dec4871ab7da7d50b9be410.pdf The Benenson strategy group is known a "a salvage operation" in that they are trying to salvage the campaign of Hillary Clinton since its on the rocks.
If you ignore the last page or so where they go off into never- never land the rest is quite telling and suggests that her campaign is in big trouble.
Once again this is a group the obama used when he was running and now the Clinton Camp is also using them to "salvage" what they can out of their campaign. All this suggests that the polling we are seeing is not just a little bogus but probably a lot bogus.
Good point,the death toll attributed to both ozero and the clintons is huge and should be outed as often as possible.
Recently one of her doctors died a mysterious death,on and on it goes.
No new polls besides LA Times? I didn’t see anything on RCP.
