In the 1950's, Charlie Wilson, formerly President of General Motors and then Secretary of Defense, said, "What's good for General Motors is good for America."

That was and remains true. Also true is that what's good for President Trump's reelection is good for America. That is why this impeachment talk is so ridiculous. The President was helping the country by getting dirt on a candidate who would ruin us. If the Democrats were the least bit patriotic they would be cheering on the President.

Precisely true, Mr. Mayor. It's times like this where we need to stop an ask ourselves what the constitution is about and why it is considered a foundational document of modern Western civilization. Does it enshrine the values of human integrity of how we should rule ourselves, learned over millenia at great cost in blood, sweat and tears? Was it born out of fear of tyranny from lawless and unconstrained power? NO! Nonsense. It's there to protect the President and anyone he cares about so he can get rich and build hotels in former Soviet states. Anyway it's golf o'clock now.

Fine insight, Dr. Toole. We have an entire country here in the U.S. that talks about the Constitution. Yet, few understand its real purpose.

Re: The PRESIDENT Donald Trump Appreciation Thread

There is this awful feminazi person, Sam Bee, who went around screaming that the Founding Fathers were not gods.

Well, of course, they weren't gods. But they mentioned God in the Declaration or the Constitution and that means that we are meant to be a Christian nation. Also we have our Pledge of Allegiance, with its profoundly pronounced words, "One Nation, Under God". If you take away God, what are we? One nation under the Constitution? . . .


Well, I guess that's okay, since God is in the Constitution.


Anyway, God is our true King and Ruler, and He placed Donald Trump where he is today. God will protect him. We just have to pray to make sure that God is able to fulfil His Divine Will.

I had never heard of this person, Sister Handy, and had to look her up. I see, to my complete absence of surprise, that she is Canadian. They are noted for, among other things, making bland and obvious statements as though they were saying something interesting and for trying to divert attention from Justine Trudeau's follies.


The only "interesting" (for some Canadian value of interesting) thing about not-so-young Samantha is that her children are called Ripley, Piper and Fletcher. In my book, these absurd choices leave her in no position to criticize anyone else, least of all our wonderful, much-loved, Godly president.

Wait. Sam Bee is an actual "her"--as in the kind that can have babies?! Well, as I live and pray, who would have known? What with the mouth on that creature, I certainly would not have.

I might want to disagree to some extent. While the Constitution probably was at least in part designed to help the President enjoy recreational activities (or at least will after Trump appoints more Supreme Court justices), there are some certain fundamental values that it bestows on all of us. Especially the original 10. Our constitution is still alive and well. It's just that a few minor exceptions have been made.


Some have exceptions though. For example:


For example freedom of speech! The very first amendment! Except when it comes to saying mean things about the President that are false ( https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/10/b...ibel-laws.html ) or saying mean things that are true that might hurt his reelection https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...819845120?s=20 )

3rd amendment: No soldiers stationed in homes. May be somewhat obsolete at this point, but hey! At least it isn't currently being infringed!


4th amendment. "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated... and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."


Well.. I guess that only counts if you're not doing anything illegal. Since the Supreme Court ruled that cops can now retroactively legalize illegal searches if they find something bad you did later. But hey, us True Christians are perfect so we should still be protected!

https://www.salon.com/2016/06/21/if_you_loved_sotomayors_dissent_in_the_4th_amendment_case_you_should_be_worried_about_a_justice_garland/

Also, the Supreme Court ruled that it was okay for the government to have a massive spy program because people couldn't prove it existed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clappe...ernational_USA well there's a big difference between searching someone's home and searching their phone which includes their private lives, contacts, emails, medical history, etc. Searching someone's papers is really aggravating and noticeable. The cops might make a mess and throw your papers about. This way the government spies on us nice and conveniently. I'm pretty sure that's what the founders had in mind when they wrote the fourth amendment.




5th Amendment ", nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."


Your property is totally safe! You can't be deprived of your private property without process of law. Unless of course your property was involved in a crime. That's different! It's okay for cops to take your stuff if your stuff is guilty! https://www.heritage.org/research/re...ou-should-know My neighbor who's a planned parenthood doctor for example. Most of his property is guilty so I civilly seize it from time to time in the middle of the night. Much like how the Supreme Court ruled that if you can't prove the government is spying you can't hold them accountable for it, I think that applies in this case too.


and of course, when a wealthy real estate mogul wants to take someone's private property. Also totally different situation. https://www.vox.com/2016/2/7/1093117...eminent-domain


6. Fair and speedy trial. Trials are totally fair in the sense that they justly give people rich enough to afford fancy lawyers preferential treatment! it's capitalism and you get what you pay for, just like buying a car or a house or anything else. It doesn't get any more fair than that.


7th Amendment: in a case exceeding $20, you have the right to a trial by jury. This one may be a little obsolete due to inflation.


8th amendment : Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.


We totally have the right to not be cruel or unusually punished! We just have to redefine "cruel" a little. Look at how bad what Muslims are doing. By comparison to that, stuff like waterboarding and Guantanamo bay are nothing. bit. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/vi...it_anyway.html


9. The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.


Unless that right involves socialism or universal healthcare or something. Never mind that 70% of people want that to be a right. It's not happening. That's probably the exception that the founders forgot to mention.


10th. Power not explicitly defined by the constitution goes with the states and not the federal government.


Ordinarily I am in favor of this but there are some exceptions that override my normal small government principles eg. The Federal government raiding medical marijuana. In those cases it's okay.




2nd amendment: The absolute right given by God that cannot be infringed. Doesn't matter if you're a suspected terrorist ( https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/...and-other-faqs ) , or mentally ill, or would fail a criminal background check ( https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/05/nra-...heck-laws.html ).


The reason this right is so important is because it protects all of our rights! Which it seems like this might be the only definitive one at the moment but that's okay because it's the most important one! I'm positive that the founders were huddled around a table drafting the constitution saying "Why should we allow people to have guns? So they can protect their right to have guns, obviously". How else would we stop the government from taking our guns? Anything else would be government tyranny.

If it weren't for this blessed and inspiring constitution, we'd just be crazy people willing to kill law enforcement and start wars over our gun hobby. Because of it, we're supporters of the constitution and revolutionists willing to stand up for the founding principles of America and against government jackbooted thugs.

Yes, that's a very important legal point. It's only spying if the person being spied on can prove it . Nixon would have been totally innocent had he just not let his cronies get discovered. The onus is on the person being spied on to do their own research. It's not our government's responsibility to reveal or investigate that they're breaking the law.

Clapper was a challenge to the FISA Amendments Act of 2008, which empowers the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to authorize surveillance without a showing of probable cause that the target of the surveillance is an agent of a foreign power.

And such challenges are even entertained? Some people must live in a cave, peeping out now and then (for nuisance value) with their latest idiocy. How on earth are you supposed to know, in advance, that the target of the surveillance is an agent of a foreign power? That's what the surveillance is supposed to determine and it's their job to conceal exactly that! I took a look at the official position of experts in the field and was not at all surprised to read (note in particular the second sentence)

Without surveillance what establishes probability that someone is a spy? Are we supposed to observe them in the regulation SPY STANCE FOR INCONSPICUOUS PHOTOGRAPHY or detect the conversation of spy versus spy with sneaky cameras and exploding cigarettes?

SPY ONE. .Allow me to light your cigarette (while simultaneously photographing your

Recruiting policy ensures only the most adept are employed I'd have thought and anyway if it didn't the incompetent ones would soon be dissolved in acid or fed to the crocodiles or whatever happens in this arena. Is the security of a president to rely on hostile powers providing a list of active spies in their target nation? Perhaps those requiring foreknowledge of foreign agents would also request transcripts of all their conversations? Because you can bet they're recording everything and reverse engineering like there's no tomorrow. Which, if idiotic challenges to security are entertained, there won't be.

Re: The PRESIDENT Donald Trump Appreciation Thread

Our President is inspiring children all across the nation to dream bigger and be more assertive and take a more active role and interest in national politics. Protection of our country from foreign invaders doesn't just start at 17 anymore when our sons enlist in the military, it starts right in the classroom with children being influenced by the wisdom of the President. Liberal teachers badly want to snuff out Donald Trump's guiding light but are unable to come up with refutations for his brilliant and bulletproof arguments.

Much like Ted Cruz, Romney finally has the expression of someone who has finally embraced the wisdom of Mr. Trump.

Brothers in Christ, I'm ecstatic!! The doubters in the lame stream media like the Clinton News Network threw every dirty trick, lie, and underhanded tactic in their arsenal, but we prevailed! CNN, even after seeing Trump's amazing poll numbers gave him a 1% chance of winning the nomination! As late as five days ago, the Huffington Post gave Trump a measly 2% chance of winning the presidency, but we were not deterred. Think about it, there was NO major media outlet predicting a Trump victory after he announced, much less before. Except here at Landoverbaptist who recognized the wisdom of Mr. Trump and saw this victory coming a mile away, we've known Trump was going to win for years.

Perhaps he's married all these girls in secret and once he's elected he'll legalize polygamy and announce that the White House is not only going to have Melania Trump as his first lady, but we'll have a second, third, forth, fifth, etc. lady as well! Kings in the past during Biblical times had many wives, 1 Kings 11:2-3 and I think it's safe to say with the amount of wisdom, wealth and power he's demonstrated Trump is like a modern day Solomon. Perhaps with all his campaign contributions, he's already gotten congress to legalize it in secret like they've done in the past with the PATRIOT act and other measures that needed to be kept secret to protect our national security, and he just hasn't announced it yet.

With strategies like these it is very clear to see how he'll do it. When it comes to appealing to African Americans there can be no one better than Donald Trump. He recently released a tweet showing not only his compassion but his political wisdom and ability to truly connect with all nationalities and races to bring them together and unite to make America great again.




https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...71710924263424

Donald Trump has revealed even more gems of political wisdom in his campaign for the presidency. I'm stunned by his ability to consistently come up with brilliant quotes that show a deep and comprehensive understanding of the issues affecting our nation. He recently commented on immigration, and I'm personally amazed that he is able to find time to run all of his businesses considering the amount of prolific research he must have done on this subject:

Everytime I think Trump has the perfect foreign policy he ups himself. This saint of a man has so much wisdom I'm having difficulty grasping it. For anyone who doubted Donald Trump's fervency and devolution to Jesus just take a listen to this:

I've been saying for years that Trump is wise, and he finally came out and acknowledged the obvious in one of his powerful tweets. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/...32249821388801 This is of course in addition to his unmatched mental stability and overall geniusness.

As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!).

Trump hasn't specified what would be off limits, so Turkey had better watch their back.

Re: The PRESIDENT Donald Trump Appreciation Thread

If we look back a few years, we can see the political genius of Donald Trump has been apparent forever. Back before what we call politely the "ef bomb" was part of everyday conversation among non Christians, the President was using if freely. This allowed Trump, a Christian, to establish his bonafides with the secular community. The Apostle Paul advised Christians to do this in 1 Corinthians 9. Paul told followers he is a Jew among Jews and so on.

By using the street language of sinners the President is converting them by the thousands. God bless you, President Trump.

Well he's already shown what he'll do to his friends and allies the Kurds. So just imagine what he'd do to someone he really likes. By the way, why aren't we talking about Greenland any more - that was such a sweet deal (for them) - they better get some new allies for when Russia comes knocking. OK, time to fire some staff - that never backfires.

II Samuel 23:3-4 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to [King David], He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God. And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain.

There was a time of darkness, when the children of Belial thrust away because like thorns they could not be taken with hands. They'd get into mischief anywhere they could and wrought havoc everywhere they went. God knew all about the suffering they caused, famine, plague, nukes whether war be declared or not, human trafficking, nits, worms and scabies. God heard the prayers of those suffering – and God answered. Obviously the prayers of heathens fell on deaf ears because they adored gods of wood and brass. They still do and they are still suffering. Christians know that living in the fear of God means obeying the laws of the land which sometimes include democratic elections. Everyone who gets a vote, whether they deserve it or not, whether they use it or not, needs to be considered. Simply standing up to state your name and hint at conservative values won't generate a stampede of supporters and tender grass will not spring out from such a candidate clear shining after rain.

(20 second clip)

to establish.….bonafides with the secular community.

Voting and Election Laws vary between countries as do penalties for not voting but in order to rule over men in the fear of God it is first necessary to get elected. Things to do (and to avoid) are set out in legislation, updated from time to time, and need to be complied with. It includes an understanding that a popular campaign is essential, an appeal made to all voters whether heathen or not (except in countries where heathens don't get a vote, of course) and a victory declared in accordance with that same legislation.

All this the President achieved.

ISIS target believed to be Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is killed in Syria:

The Islamic State group leader who reportedly had a $25 million bounty on his head is believed to have been killed in Syria.

A "high value ISIS target" -- believed to be Islamic State mastermind Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi -- was killed by U.S.-led forces in Idlib, a well-placed military source told Fox News on Saturday night.

A senior Trump administration official later confirmed the source's account.

At 9:23 p.m. Saturday, President Trump posted a Twitter message hinting at "very big" news.

Another Trump success. There is a rumor in the Fox newsroom that the president's absence from public view last night, and this incident are not entirely unconnected. Did Donald himself pull the trigger on Abu Baghdadi?

I think it's quite possible.
