    Jebbuh the Booosh really stepped in it here with the comment above. Nakedly political and pandering to the high spanick vote. If anybody had any questions about his strength of conservative character, this will clear it up completely – there ain’t no there there.

    Anyone considering Bush already knows that and agrees with his position. Or is willing to ignore it because either A) we gotta have a likeable guy that the squishys will not say mean things about or B) cause he’s not Trump.

    Someone posted a link yesterday (mh42 I think) about how GOPe would rather have a Dem in the presidency than an outsider like Trump. Between that and this:

    “Anybody who wants to seek the Republican nomination should have to commit to supporting the ultimate Republican nominee,” Virginia’s former Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli told Politico. “I don’t see anything wrong with that.”

    I will do anything legally within my power to destroy the Republican party.

    Shannon – I just got caught up in your convo from yesterday.

    I feel your pain. That’s kinda where I am re my church situation. Hang in there, dude.

    OTH, I did only a half mile swim yesterday, but I did push myself a little more than I have been. I feared a backlash of inflammation, but the pool heater was out.

    It was like swimming through an ice pack. I assumed it would help keep the inflammation down. I was one big goose bump, stroking my way across the pool After the body went numb, I was okay. I still took some pain medication when I got home.

    I’m actually still walking today, so I guess I’m getting better. I can feel the sciatica, but it’s not acute.

    What I find significant is that the researchers have asked to have limbs without hands or feet attached, or to have the tissue separated out, so “they can’t see where it came from”.

    Because mentally sanitizing the situation helps them to sleep at night.

    #8 Dooooooodski: When the question was asked at the debate, T stated that he would not commit. Later he elaborated a bit and said that if the Re tried the same old dirty tricks he would seriously consider a 3rd party run. What reasonable business man eliminates all of his options before he knows whether he will need them or not?? Basic real world common sense and it is desperately lacking in the GOPe.
    THEREFORE, if the GOPe doesn’t want a 3rd party run, then play it straight and let the chips fall where they may. . . .
    The GOPe are responsible for such losers as Ford, Dole, McSwine and Romnuts; they forced these on us because they were more “electable” than the others – or so they told us. Wimpy moderate garbage from the Re gave us 8 years of Clinton and 8 years of JugEars; time for the Re to change or die.

  14. El Gordo Avatar

    BC – I agree with you on T’s position. I’m not certain that I would support the eR candidate unless I know who it is. The D’s always manage to march in lock step with each other like lemmings into the sea, which often leads them to a position of having to defend the indefensible. This means they sacrifice their individuality for the collective. Conservatives often like to swim against the current and tend to go off in all directions due to the effect of having functioning brains and the freedom to make their own decisions. Some might call this a “disorganized” party for that reason. The cat herders like Rove want to emulate the D’s and control their members, even if it results in a smaller group than the D’s willing to submit to his control. So long as any politician is telling me what government can do for me, they are off my list – all government needs to do for me is provide a sound currency and provide for the national defense.

    I’m not big on sports analogies when it comes to politics, but I think this one is pretty much on target:

    It is crystal clear both parties lie, cheat and steal to keep who they choose in a position of power.

    Back in the day before sports became integrated and a very talented black man wanted to join a white team, there would some times be open revolt with white players quitting the team or not playing up to their ability.

    How is that right for the team? You have a player who can immediately improve the teams chances of winning and because other team members do not like the way he looks, they choose to destroy their own team.

    How are the republicans any different, all the players are standing around saying if Trump is our quarterback, we are walking off the field.

    How on earth is THAT beneficial for the team?

    If they really cared about us, they would use this as an opportunity to pick up more players, in both the senate and house.

    Trump is currently doing a very effective job playing by the rules and the rebups threaten to throw him off the team, who are the real traitors?

    Supercleanfund – I agree both parties are disgusting and maybe as a man Trump is too, but about a year ago Karl made some posts about what kind of person (Party) comes in to fill a vacuum and as he and others at the time pointed out, normally you have a true tyrant come in.

    Now who on earth knows what the future holds and maybe Trump is only laying the ground work for an American Hitler, but when both major parties are acting in a way that is not pulling, but pushing the smart capable and wanting people away, it is time for those same people to start making sane chooses.

    I am not a Trump supporter, but I am certainly against whiny, snot nosed babies telling me who I can or can not play with and then trying to change the rules to make it more difficult for that person.

    If Trump brings about the destruction of the Republican party, it is only because the repubs are selfish.

    And I can only hope he destroys the dems on the way.

    According to CIS, 71 percent of illegal-alien headed households with children received some sort of welfare in 2009, compared with 39 percent of native-headed houses with children. Illegal immigrants generally access welfare programs through their U.S.-born children, to whom government assistance is guaranteed. Additionally, U.S.-born children of illegal aliens are entitled to American public schools, health care, and more, even though illegal-alien households rarely pay taxes.

    When a cop illegally searches the trunk of a car, the evidence obtained is almost always thrown out of court as it is “fruit of the poison tree.” When a bank robber makes off with the cash from the bank, when he is caught, he does not get to keep the fruits of his ill gotten gains. Why izzit then that when a person illegally enters the country and has a baby, that they are then granted the benefits of the fruit of their illegal venture?? It is illogical and unreasonable in the extreme – pc insanity run amok.
    It will not be possible for the USA to help anyone if we are driven into bankruptcy by insane left-wing moonbatschizzle policies. Who is helped by the USA cratering – won’t wimminz, chirrenzes and the po be hit the hardest?

    I just heard the saddest story (other than living through the elections of TBO):

    “B” is a very nice woman who works at our local Ace hardware store. I went to their indoor post office to buy some stamps and drop off some mail, and when I found her, it was obvious she’d been crying. I asked if she was okay, and this story ensued (she got three big hugs from me during the narration):

    Her fiance was military, on his last tour in Ukraine, on his very last mission. He was due to come home on Monday – and was killed on the Friday before. B told me all about the kindness of the military, flying her to Nevada, where he was buried. She said she was taken to the room where he was, and she bawled for five hours, with a marine on either side of her, facing away, the whole time. Then they took her to see her 7 year old daughter (his daughter) who is living in Nevada with his family. Her daughter was glued to her side for the next few days, and had her turn with her father under the same conditions. They had the funeral, and B returned here to Houston. She has since been undoing all of their wedding – they had paid for the reception, the wedding, and had even been prepared to buy a house in Pearland. B said that keeping busy has been her salvation.

    She called her daughter “her blessing” from the relationship, but she has to keep from crying each time she sees her, because the daughter is the spitting image of her father. At some point, she’ll bring her daughter home with her, but right now, she has so much on her plate, and her daughter is involved with year-round schooling, so it will be a while before she can bring her home.

    I tried not to cry. I failed. She said all I could do to help was hugs and prayers. The hugs help, she said. I did tell B that if she needed anything, to give me a call. Even if she just needed a hug, I’d drive to her, hug her, and come back home if that’s what she needed. She smiled and said she might just take me up on that.

    Where taxis go to die…in Brooklyn.

    Dozens upon dozens of yellow cabs have been shuffled this way for the better part of the year, throughout the blocks contained by Huron Street to the south, Freeman to the north, Provost to the east and Manhattan Avenue to the west. McGuinness Management is the heart of what one frustrated neighbor recently dubbed the “taxi graveyard.”

    Hossam Yossri has been working at McGuinness for five years. “Business is getting so bad, that people are just dropping their cabs off here,” he told us on Tuesday. “Everyone is going to Uber, where they don’t have to pay a lease, and they don’t have to deal with a dispatch.”….

    As the number of drivers continues to dwindle, between 80 and 120 cabs sit empty on any given shift. Yossri recalls one day recently when there were only enough drivers to send out 24 cabs, and 147 of them sat empty.

    This may be common knowledge here, but I was away for the weekend supposedly having a beach adventure. Actually, we spent the entire time packing up all the dishes, stemware, glassware and porcelain in a daughter’s condo in south Jersey. She’s, of course, too busy flitting around Paris and London with her rich boyfriend.

    There’s another server ?

    Conflicting accounts of when data was removed from Hillary Clinton’s private server indicate copies of emails known to contain classified information may reside on a device other than the one presently in FBI custody.

    She may have printed 55,000 pages of emails for submission to the State Department from a different device than the one presently in FBI custody.

    Platte River Networks, the company that managed Clinton’s email network after she stepped down from her post as secretary of state, indicated it transferred data off the original server in mid-2013.

    I can see why pride is the Devil’s favorite sin.

    With pride comes the feeling of self-importance, of a non-reliance on God, the feeling of superiority over others. There is so much that comes from pride.

    Precisely why it’s one of the Seven Cardinal Sins, also known as the 7 Deadly Sins.

    … great sins, like murder, adultery, stealing, etc., have root causes, like Pride. Pride was the devil’s great sin, as he wanted to be like God, and rebelled. There are 7 basic kinds of sin, that lead to all others, known as the Seven Deadly sins. It takes heroic virtue in most cases to overcome these. Most of us are afflicted greatly with at least one or two of these. And once you give in to one of these sins, the spirits of the other 6 will be only too glad to come into your soul also.

    I struggle to not fall into these sins. I do better some days than others. I try for these:

    Chastity – It overcomes the sin of lust.

    Liberality (Generosity) – It overcomes the sin of Greed.

    Temperance – It overcomes the sin of Gluttony.

    Brotherly Love – It overcomes the sin of Envy.

    Meekness – It overcomes the sin of Anger.

    Humility – It overcomes the sin of Pride.

    Diligence – It overcomes the sin of sloth.

    Humility can be quite tricky. I’ve heard it said that once you realize that you’re humble, you’ve lost it…

    Defining these can be quite a discussion topic. I was in a Bible study (non-Catholic,but it was at work) and we had a discussion of “meek” in the Beatitudes. The Protestant leader and his buddies all thought the word meek meant mouselike, whereas I took Max Lucado’s definition: to be willing to submit to and serve God. We agreed to disagree. I don’t think Jesus wanted mice; I think he wanted willing hearts.

    After I’d been in the group for a few months, I was called “a blessing” to the group. I don’t think it was intended the way you probably read it just now.

  32. Sarge Avatar

    I don’t think Jesus wanted mice

    He provided an example when he took the time to braid his own whip before chasing the money changers out of the Temple:

    John 2:13 The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. 15 And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. 16 And he told those who sold the pigeons, “Take these things away; do not make my Father’s house a house of trade.”

    John Eldredge in Beautiful Outlaw points out that in making the whip, Jesus did not chase the money changers out in a fit of sudden rage. He did it as “planned sustained aggression”

    No. He definitely does not want mice.

    Color me NOT shocked at ALL…………….

    It’s worked out wonderfully for Russia and Ukraine in particular, where massive cuts in carbon emissions were achieved and other folks lined up to buy their credits for big dollars. Of course, as you might have expected, they really didn’t cut their emissions at all.

    Imagine that. The Russians in particular did quite well by citing any number of programs, including one where they agreed to stop burning coal waste at mining facilities which was dumping massive amounts of carbon into the atmosphere. The catch was that the Russians had not previously been burning the coal waste. They only started doing it so they could stop and claim the credits for it. Of course, when the Russian representative was reached for comment, he said, “It’s simply not true.”
    I guess that’s all cleared up, then. All in all, the Russians cashed in for more than two billion dollars worth of carbon credits on these activities.
    Mighty good work if you can get it.

    Mean Gene Green: Isn’t he dead? I’m pretty sure he’s dead.

    LaRouchie #2: Congressman Green, I didn’t think we could possibly elect a president worse than Bush, but we did. Will you do like Senator Baker did with Nixon and tell Obama it’s time for him to leave office?

    Mean Gene Green: I can assure you that he will be leaving office …. in about 18 months.

    When I first moved to Houston Dr. Duke had a segment on Channel 13 once a week during the evening news. I have no idea why on earth I remember this but one of his segments in the early ’80s started out with “Americans eat entiiiiirely to much organ meat!”

    They also used to have a hunting/outdoors segment with Thom Dickerson. I always liked him too. I think he died last year.

    Here’s the flyer they passed out at the meeting:

    Take the Wall Street skyscrapers and convert them into machines of progress, FDR-style.

    As LaRouche stated it:

    “Cancel Wall Street. Put people to work like FDR did. We can get out of this crisis—not without pain, but we can survive and prosper. Listen to the voice of FDR from afar. We must get the American people to stop being stupid and accepting the existing system, as if there was no viable alternative. There is a viable alternative, and it starts by cancelling Wall Street altogether.”

    Cancel the Obama Presidency and cancel Wall Street and all of the pressing problems, which are centered exclusively in the trans-Atlantic region, can be solved.

    Had I been in the back of the room I would definitely filmed the LaRouche chuckleheads, but since I was speaking I was on the front row. It would have been pretty conspicuous.
