@Smokin Joe

Exactly my point.  Yet the gibbering moron I've been talking with paints it as an attempt to compliment Obama because he can't differentiate between fact and flattery.

I suspect @TomSea would change his tune in a second if he knew that Rush Limbaugh, the bringer of gospel, made the same argument you and I are making now.

Buzz off, you lost the argument, now you call names. I'm done with you forever. Buzz off.

No, Tom, you failed at semantic nuance.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You admitted it,  not a good president, that's all one was asking.

So you really are that stupid. 

God, how do you even function in daily life?

Oh, the Cruz bots can't let go, even if Ted is supporting the President, because they are big phonies.  They never agree with Cruz as articles are out today that he is taking flak for supporting the president, if they abandon conservative social issues, big deal.

Temper temper, Oooh weee.

This is why Cruz-bots can't be trusted, they never agree with Cruz, they grind their axe, call names at others, want to be part of the Constitution Party in some cases, immature.

   The Cruz anamosity @TomSea has exemplified here makes me re evaluate my Trump dislike and that's a good thing but now more than ever I am convinced he's wrong and I'm RIGHT!

   Cruz is no threat to your guy until possible 2019 at the earliest, chill my Friend.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Yay !!!  Well, if he did nothing else (and he did nothing else) that would be a good thing, it would be for your to re-evaluate.

What I'm wondering if why a couple of supposedly intelligent members have wasted two pages arguing with the dude.

Unless, maybe, arguing is their thing, even if it's with a rock.

If we could possibly go back to Sasse, I would hate to remove him from the Senate as he is one of the better looking guys in there ... BUT,

I really don't like the attitude he displayed in his negative referral to 'white backlash.'

White backlash is a natural reaction to stuff that's going on today and as long as it's confined to words, I don't think it's that bad.

I liked Sasse's comeback: "Sorry, Sean. you're the one who's changed.  Some of us still believe in the Constitution."

And like it or not he is correct that religion cannot exclude you from serving in Congress.  I don't like Keith Ellison either.  Don't trust him and worry that Muslims will try to slip in their laws.  But there is nothing to exclude Muslims.  Worrying about Muslims is the same as liberals worrying about Christians.  Either way we are dumping on our Constitution.   Sasse is a Constitutionalist.  Not a surprise.

The best we can do is pray that our government sticks to the Constitution.

Hey, @Emjay, for once in your life drop the passive-aggressive crap and have the guts to actually call members by their names.  Instead of, you know, pulling your glasses up on their chain and hooting "sooooome members" with that perpetually pursed mouth of yours.

That's right.  If we don't like it, we can amend it.

True, but it would be dangerous and I don't think we would like the outcome.  The Founding Fathers were wise.  However with Islam the Constitution is our protection.  I don't know why states must pass no foreign law legislation.  Because Roy Moore is correct in the fact that Sharia Law is not compatible with our Constitution.  It is everything against freedom and every state should confirm that there is no opening in our laws for Sharia restrictions or punishments.

Okay, @CatherineofAragon I was trying to be nice.

You were a total idiot to keep up that dialogue with @TomSea.  And you're also a hateful beeotch.

No, here we don't go again.  I spent weeks ignoring @CatherineofAragon because she is totally hateful and insulting to me.  But she kept goading me and I finally responded.  Did you even read her post... talking about me in such a really ugly way?  So I snapped and responded.

It will not happen again.  I will not respond to her in the future so don't get your hopes up.

Reading the above statement from you I think the response was appropriate.  You don't see it?  I see it all the time.  You say members or make blanket statements that could apply to anybody.  I think you do it on purpose.

It happened to me in the other thread when you implied people were being hateful Christians.  Its like you are trying to get a reaction so that you can start something up.

Well, apparently some of us are.  I don't like what he said and I don't want a Muslim to have any political office in the United States.

I would prefer that we didn't have any Muslims in the country period.

I don't know what that makes me but it's the way I feel.


What it makes you is a pragmatic realist.

The more Muslims we have in the country, the more pandering to their issues politicians will be doing.

At the moment, Sharia is off the table in America.

Import enough new voters who want it, and that can change.

It won't be either legal or right, but when has that ever stopped a politician?

@Emjay

Well, I feel the same way you do about that, but not being a leftist, my feelings are not the be-all and end-all of it.  The Constitution is the law, and we better amend it if we don't like what it says.


With the full knowledge I'm restating the painfully obvious here, the Idea that we'd be importing Muslims by the millions at some point didn't enter the minds of the men who codified religious liberty into the Constitution.

They didn't feel they even Needed to state that they meant Judeo/Christian sects.
