In an ACTUAL event similar to my blonde texting joke, years ago in one of our church sunday morning worship services, the choir was about to sing a song called “Pour My Love on You” which opened with a solo by the worship leader/director. The opening line of the song is “I don’t know how to say exactly how I feel, And I can’t begin to tell you what your love has meant...” As we were waiting for whatever was going on before the song, the director had a mental lapse and couldn’t think of the lyrics. He nudged his wife and asked her “how does this next song start?” and she drew a blank as well. MrsVRWC was sitting next to her on the front row of the choir, so she asked MrsVRWC “how does the next song start?” and MrsVRWC said “I don’t know how” so she turned back to her husband (the leader) and shrugged her shoulders with a perplexed look. MrsVRWC then said to her “No, the words are ‘I don’t know how’” and then she and all three of them started laughing.

How the hell did this broad ever get elevated to the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals? It might be fun to have hearings just so one of the committee members could respond to one of her answers with this

that and the victims rights groups that Grassley would have testify, along with the families etc. There will not be a hearing, but truly that is one that would be enjoyable to watch.

An unfortunate attitude.
While I strongly support Cruz, who espouses the only viable ideology, Trump is eminently electable and will open government to conservative influence. He is eminently amenable to suggestion and persuasion and is predisposed to listen to conservative voices.
Rubio is fraudulent.
Kasich is establishment.
Cruz is vastly more pugnacious and uncompromising than Trump and is brittle.
Trump is all his detractors say he is and more, much more. If we genuinely want to turn this ship of state around and regain our moral footing we must blast entrenched corruption at its base. Trump is best positioned to accomplish that.
He may fail us. The risk with Trump is his independence.
We do not need to love him. He is not a nice man. But he our junkyard dog.

Hints?

you are putting your faith in a man without any foundational principles, certainly no core conservative principles. you are taking on faith, what a faithless man says he will do. Those who live and die on the immigration issue heard him say last night that he’s “softened” his stance on H1-B visas. he’s continually evolving. he is largely devoid of substance. people are signing on for the bombast and the balls. I think that if he is elected his supporters will largely be horrified by what he does. Everything you state as fact in your post, you know HOW? electable? polls show him losing to hillary. you believe that Trump is best position to root out corruption, when he has used corruption himself to advance his personal interests? predisposed to listen to conservative voices? again, you know this how? you are taking it all on faith. Do not look askance at those of us [the 65%] who simply cannot put our faith in a man proven time and again to be faithless.

Early on I thought I could vote for Trump, but he stands for nothing. A man who has no principles will fall for anything. I will not trust the Presidency to such a man.

that’s fine, i am not saying you shouldn’t. but i resent like hell the invective thrown on FR to those of us who see him as a faithless fraud, when his supporters have zero proof that he’s not one.

Early on I supported Cruz. Trump grew on me because of his principles.
