      My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

      If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

      This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

        Indeed, a ship going with the current will not create a wake as it goes into the reef. Trump is powering the ship away from the reef but will create a wake.

            Maybe partly because the Republicans weren't quite as vindictive as the Democrats, Jim.

                  Seems that there's a problem with the logic there.

                    It's everybody CP. A big part of the problem is not recognizing that.

                      Nope, not me.

                      Jim, I know a whole bunch of people who have given up on politics and really don't give a flip. It will be what it will be.

                        So it’s okay to belittle and insult your opponents, as long as you do it in secret, behind their backs. Thank you for pointing us in the right direction.

                          I'm actually a little surprised Ox went that route.

                            TDS does seem to make a person into a pretty huge hypocrite. Democrats are simply mad that Trump does it in the open vs behind closed doors, which is better for some strange reason that nobody can seem to figure out. It really doesn’t matter who won in 2016, if it was a Republican, the gnashing of teeth would have happened rather it was Trump, Jeb Bush, Ron Paul, etc. The only difference is most of them would have taken it to the chin and been gentlemen about it. Look at the Left’s reaction to Mitt Romney in 2012, the most boring person ever was compared to the rise of the 4th reich.

                              Right. We need to recognize that the swamp is deep.

                              Do you recognize the partisan bureaucrats within the US govt agencies?

                              I remember something about Clinton replacing all the lawyers in the DOJ (or something like that) when he took office. There probably weren't any left who would have been interested in restricting his corrupt activities.

                                No - that's not what I said. But I'm not surprised that is what you got out of what I said.
