Yes.

Fealty is required when saviors and political messiahs show up to 'save the country'.

Didn't you get the memo or the direct threat?

@INVAR

I must have missed it, but regardless they better not hold their breath waiting for my loyalty to any elected public servant.  Least of all some fat, humped, insecure child-man TV host.

The loyalty works exactly the opposite way.

Not even those ordained by God?

Jeffress is supposed to be a preacher, but his statement is breathless with Trump worship.

Just shows a preacher ain't necessarily a man of God.  :shrug:

Do Satanists even have preachers? I know they have priests, but thats not the same thing.

We're Texans so we knew Cruz but nobody else did.  He's pretty famous now and I think he could beat Trump ... if Trump weren't the incumbent, but that gets you a bunch of points right there.

I don't think Cruz would try it.  He's young and he will be president someday.

I tend to agree with you.
Something pretty drastic would have to happen before Cruz would primary another Republican.

Oh, Cruz will probably have to primary another Republican when the time comes.

But he's too politically savvy to take on an incumbent.

WHY do we need Recublicrats in any election?  They alongside their brothers in crime, the Deamoncrats, will not do as they say and have no credibility.  PLEASE stop voting for those phonies!

Okay, I won't.  But I can't speak for anyone else.

Because they're not "OUR" phonies!

You need to stop obsessing over the fact that I didn't vote in the Presidential election.  A lot of people who could have voted chose not to do so.  I couldn't because I had just moved here.

If I had still been in Texas, I think I would have voted for Trump if it came right down to it.  I opposed him bitterly during the primary, but I think I would have looked at the other choice and pulled the lever for trump.  Or marked the ballot of whatever we do these days.

You seem to think you have some kind of weapon over me because I didn't vote.  You don't.

So, stop trailing me around with your pathetic criticism.  I'm not following you so don't follow me.

Take a pill.  It wasn't meant as a slight in this case.  You didn't vote for the phonies in the last election, so you don't have to say you'll do it next time.

If I had a pill that would convince you to stop posting inane comments to me, I would take two.

Whatev.  There's always the ignore button.  Use it.  Otherwise, take a benign comment the way it was meant and move on.

By the way @aligncare You made some claim on the Zogby poll the other day and I asked you about that and you never answered.  Do you not have that info?

   As much as I love @Emjay my political philosophy is more aligned with my newest sweetheart @RoosGirl
   So the round goes to HER!

Bah, there is no round.  It was a simple misunderstanding about a comment I made.

   I'm incredibly bored and since most of the pot-stirrers are fighting in their local tavern, I feel it's my responsibility to stir crap up, it's been way to peaceful here as of late.  @RoosGirl

   @Emjay actually correctly called it less than an hour ago.

Called what?

I can appreciate a stir every now and then. :)

   She accused me of trying to start crap, so I threatened her with my Ignore list, she didn't believe me, but she rarely does.
