In situations like this, a discerning person can also notice a lot of ironic, backward misinterpretation of religiosity on the part of many secular people.

a. Any age, with entitled child under age 16 or disabled in care (payment rate is 50% of employee’s full benefit).

That is still the spousal SS benefits, not the dependents benefits. If they kick the boy out, and have no other dependents then the spouse loses her SS benefits.

Courtney Swinton's telephone was allegedly used by a woman named Sarah Barlow to call a battered women's shelter in Washington State between March 22 and April 8. According to the affidavit, Barlow said she was 16, that she had an infant daughter named Claire and that she had a "reassigned husband" named Uncle Merrill. According to the document, Texas investigators believed that was a reference to Frederick Merrill Jessop, the head of the YFZ Ranch.

Let me get this straight. According to your and CPS's reasoning, Sarah Barlow went to Colorado and used Courtney Swintons phone to make phone calls over a period of weeks claiming to be abused in the YFZ compound. She continued to make calls for days while the raid was on going, still claiming to be in YFZ, even after all the women and children had been detained.

If you can explain how Sarah could be in Colorado and Texas at the same time and then disappear, never to be heard from again. I will become an ardent CPS defender, apologize for all of my posts, and promise never to doubt anything you post. LOL

If you can't provide a rational explanation, may I suggest that you look up True Believer Syndrome. It is a very apt description of your condition.

Are you saying that the secular people are the anti FLDS or the posters who are trying to defend the constitution?

Sometimes when people think they are smart, they repeat themselves in succession.

Isn't the definition of insanity, repeating yourself and expecting different results?

Wow, you can sure read things into something that’s not there.

I sent you a link to an article, highlighting the portion that stated the caller, who identified herself as “Sarah”, stated she was the ‘wife’ of Merrill Jessop.

All along, we have been told the man’s name was Dale Barlow. That was the one and only thing I was trying to point out.

End of story.

Hopefully, for the last time . .

When he tried to obtain a Medi­caid card, Gideon Barlow learned that his 73-year-old father was drawing Social Security funds in Gideon’s name. Social Security allows retirement-age parents to collect money to help support children ages 16 or younger who are living at home.

I have no idea if any of Dan Barlow's spouses receive social security benefits, either on their own work record or on Dan's.

How old was Gideon Barlow? Money from SS for minors is deducted from the SS recipient, it is not extra money. Your story doesn't make any sense.

Are you simply trying to say that the CPS can't get their facts straight? If you are, then I agree.

Too bad CPS didn’t figure on the support of people who care about the constitution.. there’s still a few of us left. The rest of the pseudo conservatives would rather simmer like the proverbial frogs in the pot.

Exactly. They'll be surprised when CPS decides to remove children in houses with guns...or that are Christians...or that don't support various social causes.

Too bad there won't be anyone left to object when that happens.

I would really really like to know why some of you think the children aren’t safer at home.

To get them out of imminent danger as the judge and CPS like to tell people, this is who they ended up being exposed to.

“Billy Dan Carroll, a 53-year-old entrepreneur and founder of a court-reporting firm, filmed himself having sex with several kids between the ages of 3 and 15, the Austin American Statesman reported.”

I wonder who here, is on the Carroll rolodex?

The pedophilia circle were running low so they had to get some low hanging fruit from the flds compound.

The pedophilia circles must have been running low on fresh meat so the CPS folks had to go get a new batch of low hanging fruit at the flds compound. Just beautiful.

Sure they attract the wrong types, and when the supply to abuse runs low in the “child protection” circles they go after the low hanging fruit like flds.

If someone doubts me read this AGAIN:
