Seems I'm not the only one



who can see that so-called 'Christians' have sold their souls to support a vile human being who is about as far from being a true 'Christian' as you can get, with his constant LIES, marital unfaithfulness, greed, attitudes toward the poor and a myriad of other examples.
Why?
It's explained very well and concisely in an article in this morning's Denver Post, after an interview with one of the Liar in Chief's hypocritical supporters.

Throughout 2017, white evangelicals mostly supported Donald Trump, even when his actions as president seemed non-Christian.
With the anniversary of Trump’s inauguration at hand, I called one of Colorado’s top evangelical leaders, Jeff Hunt, who directs the politically active Centennial Institute at Colorado Christian University, to understand why.
When it comes to politics, Hunt has one of the worst cases of true-believer syndrome I’ve ever seen. Again and again, his defense of Trump is purely partisan, no matter the violent conflict it creates with Christian values and beliefs.
Given the opportunity to share gripes about Trump’s bad behavior, Hunt demurs. He disputes that Trump is a constant liar or that his actions are racist. He denies that Trump’s actions are intentionally divisive. He dodges questions about Trump’s treatment of women and his unorthodox business practices while president. He blames the media.
Hunt chooses to focus on the Trump administration’s policy and legislative actions that benefit the faith community and leaves it at that.

Christians want power. Trump gives it to them. What’s the problem?

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
