Yes.

He's angry with people who can actually think.

And capital letters.......
Oh, I dunno. He capitalizes sentences beginning with "I"....

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.

    Guess with age also comes the ability to multi-task because I follow Politics and the Houston Rockets obsessively.  We play the NO Pelicans in 30 minutes.

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.

Touche'
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.

"Sometimes I think the Church would be better off if we would call a moratorium on activity for about six weeks and just wait on God to see what He is waiting to do for us. That's what they did before Pentecost."   - A. W. Tozer

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

Likely @bluehammer5 on Twitter, since he signed up the month after his last KOS post. 

I say this to Beto fans, Trump fans, all fans of politicians: it is un-American, ridiculous, and dangerous to be a fan of a politician. They aren't pop stars. Support them if you agree with their policies. Criticize them when they go wrong. They are servants, not celebrities. —— Matt Walsh

One would think you could read a seven page thread and find the overall consensus of the question raised.

But NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

You guys let a noob hijack a now, seven page thread in reply#6.   

The argument should have been turned on him to admit the obvious Democratic bias that is 96% negative/adversarial toward Donald Trump.

...which is the subject.

THEN, we can argue whether he's led us upon Conservative principles or not.

just my opinion.   :shrug:

Before there was a Democrat/Socialist/Marxist/Communist ("Mainstream") media bias against Donald Trump, there was one against just about everything decent and right about America.
Wrap your head around that.
Media attacking Trump is just another chapter in a long story.

I understand that.  But 'Trump' is the first Republican POTUS in the social media world. 

The hatred the Left has for Conservatives is laid bare.  Don't tell me it's the same ole' same old.

It's the same ol' same ol' hatred the Left has had for Conservatives since Goldwater. It's just on a new medium.

I think the media is dangerous to the Republic in its present condition.

The media in its present condition, or the Republic in its present condition?
The Media have done much to create the condition the Republic is in.
Had they been hostile to the Communists and their crap, we wouldn't be in the mess we are in today.

Do elaborate. This ought to be fun, because somehow, I suspect there's a lot of folks here who know more about the Bible than you do.
