Four followers. Nobody's reading his posts?

Based on what he's shown us here, why would they?  happy77
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

that's an interpretation.......is the word BIBLE anywhere in the constitution?

it's like saying that the country got it's start in Boston so the rest of you are just a bunch of worthless followers

Your post mean's you have zero knowledge about our founding fathers.

America’s founders quoted heavily from the Bible, Montesquieu, Blackstone, and Locke---in that order.

In his The Spirit of Laws, Baron Montesquieu wrote: “We shall see that we owe to Christianity, in government, a certain political law, and in war a certain law of nations—benefits which human nature can never sufficiently acknowledge.”


Sir William Blackstone, who has often been quoted by the Supreme Court, said that the laws of nature were written by God and were supplemented by the Holy Scriptures. He wrote: “This law of nature being…dictated by God Himself, is of course superior in obligation to any other. It is binding over all the globe, in all countries, and at all times. No human laws are of any validity if contrary to this.”


John Locke penned: “The Bible is one of the greatest blessings bestowed by God on the children of men.” I used to have a Sunday school teacher, Dr. Greg Forster, who earned his Ph.D. at Yale studying Locke and became a Christian because of Locke’s classic book, The Reasonableness of Christianity.


Although not all framers of the Declaration and Constitution were orthodox Christians, about 95 percent of the founding fathers were active members of Trinitarian Christian churches. To many of them, the Christian faith was central in their lives:


In his “Circular to the States” (1783), George Washington said that America could never hope to be a happy nation unless we learned to imitate Jesus, “the divine author of our blessed religion.”


In his Inaugural Address (1797), John Adams calls “a decent respect for Christianity among the best recommendations for the public service.”


Thomas Jefferson said that Jesus is the reason we can have religious freedom. To force people to believe in religious views they don’t share are a departure from Him, “the holy author of our religion.” Jefferson wrote this in his Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom (1777, adopted 1786).


James Madison, a key leader in the creation of the Constitution, wrote that our obligations to God come before those to the state: “Before any man can be considered as a member of Civil Society, he must be considered as a subject of the Governor of the Universe.”



As to the Masonic charge, I view it as an anachronistic charge. The Masons in America did not become anti-Christian until the 1830s and thereafter, long after the time of the framing of our founding documents.

you're struggling with the language......I never said that

Didn't have to...it's been implied in every post you've made.

but here goes:

Quote
immigration? It's problem but trump is too stupid to work with congress to generate a solution. do we need a whole wall? no....but improving barrier infrastructure would have my vote

Improving the "barrier infrastructure" IS building a wall.  Implement the fancy electronic monitoring after the wall/fence/barrier is built.
 It's called a layered defense.  Even the head if ICE says they need the wall built to secure the border.  Congress has sat on their hands since 2006 when the Secure Fence Act was passed and did next to nothing to implement the law they agreed to.  Then Pelosi took over and the funding was reduced to a trickle until Obama came along and unfunded it.  Our southern border is wide open at this point and the vast majority of human trafficking...drugs gangs and illegal aliens take advantage of the lack of security we have down there to move north and wreak havoc.

What is so hard to understand about that?

Oh and good fences make good neighbors.

Quote
tax cut? what tax cut? 2018 is going to cost me $10000 more than 2017....the tax cut along with the deficit during an economic expansion is pretty stupid......so we are going to run close to the same deficits as during a mortgage crisis when the government was basically shoving trillions into the economy......mmmmkay

My break on taxes was nicer this year compared to last.  Maybe you need a new accountant.  Who was telling the fed to run round after round of QE?  Wasn't Trump.  And while he's signed some huge spending bills...he's got a long way to go before he tops Obama and Bush 43 in adding to the National Debt.

Even in the 20 year economic boom that Reagan created there deficits.  What's your point?

Quick question...where do spending bills originate?


Quote
foreign policy? it's being run by the russians

Where is your proof?

Quote
I don't mind the increase in defense spending, but it's criminal that there has not been an improvement in helping vets

The vet crisis is a shame.  Wouldn't it be nice if they still had the 700 million in their budget that was taken from them to help make Obamacare look "revenue neutral".

Best fix for the VA...let veterans pick the hospital and/or provider they want to go to.  Simple as that.

pro-choice .... freedom, baby

But what about freedom for the baby?

we could solve much of the fiscal mess by attacking waste and fraud
in favor of government provided voter ID as well as eliminating the electoral college

You almost had a good thing going there with Voter ID.  Your Progressive roots came out on the dissolution of the EC.  It's put there to keep small dark blue areas on each coast from dictating to the rest of the country how things will be.

The EC goes away your Progressive brethren will force their idea of Utopia on all of us and it will be the end of the U.S. as we know it.

Quote
I just think in general, that many of you here have built up so much negativity towards the left .... but they're not going anywhere .... in fact, if anything, the right is losing the numbers game and there's only so much that gerrymandering can hold back.

The left has brought it on themselves with their marxist desires for the U.S.  Their demands for speech codes...their anti gun...pro criminal stances...abortion bordering in infanticide...their denial of science when it comes to gender and their belief in junk science when it comes to climate not to mention the outright racism that has never left the Democrat party that is rearing its ugly head again...that doesn't resonate well with the majority of the people.  And it's gonna get worse if this current crop of hard left Congress Critters that got elected stay for more than one or two terms.  Marxist Alex From The Bronx and the Taliban Triplets are pushing back against the Progressives and IMHO we're about to se a case of the Dems eating their own much in the same way we've seen with the hard core Trump base waging war on the Conservatives in the party.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Blue Yammer isn't here to learn....he's here to lecture us until we see the errors of our ways and stop being miserable.   this one has no capacity for learning, and in that he's different from Dex and Jazzy.  I have respect for those guys.

He's here to feed his ego because he's just certain that he's smarter than everyone here. That certainty betrays is brilliance exposing him for what he is.

.  Our constitution is meant only for a Christian people, who believe in a God. Not islam.

So if one is an atheist or agnostic the Constitution isn’t applicable to them? What about Americans who follow other religious beliefs?
