President Trump - Page 479 - Politics version 7.0 -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I've thought about that. We should just call this the American Politics thread. I suppose we could start a "What is the Future of the Democrat Party?" thread - but this would be the only post:

Well, ****:

), I've been told that Crimea is basically Russian anyway. But this is just stupid. We have more important things to worry about. Another mess for Trump to clean up. Sigh.

Perhaps you children should just sit down and be quiet. You could learn something when the adults are conversing.

This is unfortunately a good point.

You know - I'm glad McCain voted against the Skinny Repeal (it was toothless - repeal the whole damn thing). But goddammit!! He's running out of sympathy here.

Stupid sanctions, Obama giving Trump a giant **** you out the door, and more. From speaking with some some actual Russians (who told me to vote for Trump, btw ), I've been told that Crimea is basically Russian anyway. But this is just stupid. We have more important things to worry about. Another mess for Trump to clean up. Sigh.

You don't say, comrade.

I talked to some Germans and they said not to worry: Poland is basically German anyway.

I joked recently that the regime was influenced by some sort of 'god-ego shadow cabinet'.... and well, holy ****... it's the actual cabinet!!!

Drollinger says Attorney General Sessions will "go out the same day I teach him something and I'll see him do it on camera and I just think, 'Wow, these guys are faithful, available and teachable and they're at Bible study every week they're in town.'"

Quote:

If Drollinger's own board members deemed him "not biblically qualified for spiritual leadership," why is he in the White House leading some of the most powerful people in America in Bible study?

On May 21, 2004, the L.A. Times reported Drollinger "wrote in a Bible lesson that women lawmakers with young children at home are sinners."

Three days later Church Central reported Drollinger "claimed that the Bible says God has given men and women different roles. 'Man's is, primarily, to be a breadwinner, and women's is to be at home nurturing their children,' he said." It also reported that when Drollinger called Catholicism a false religion, then-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is Catholic, kicked Drolliniger out of the governor's offices.

Theologian Diana Butler Bass calls Drollinger "anti-women, anti-Catholic, anti-LGBTQ, anti-Jewish."

That's like asking her to not collect Social Security when she retires (not that it'll be there in 40 years, but still). What a stupid and small minded argument.

The government set that rule, she's just playing by it. Shame Obama couldn't make it affordable for her to buy her own insurance.

JiggyProjector,

Why would you be considered a trustworthy source of quality links?

You do realize that there are many Americans who don't WANT to be like Europeans, right?

I don't mean to be a meany-face about this, but when I look at European countries I do not envy them. I'm sure they feel the same way about us. Yes, we don't have universal healthcare and our public education is terrible, etc, but in the end what makes us different from Europeans is a good thing, not a bad thing.

I'm sure it's nice over there and they live a more relaxed life. Good for them. They can keep it.

I'm pretty sure we could have a good education system and universal healthcare and you could still be properly 'Merican and like not have to wear a scarf to the football match or take a month of vacation a year or whatever it is that is objectionable about being European.
