You are looking at this from a wrong perspective.

The Liberal Party has been in control basically since Reagan.

The President is up to the task. The work is required and the left is going to continue to explode.

Fallout will continue. 27% of this nation is that stupid, squeaky wheel that we are subject to. They are CPUSA.

Chin up and keep going.

Take a break and then return....because the battle is just beginning! The battle for America is part of The battle for souls (God always wins in the end!) We need to pray and fight back! Not hate like their side, though jokes are good for releasing pressure. Do not lose hope!

I don’t think it’s in God’s nature to ‘get angry’.

Sodom, Gomorrah, Israel, and the temple money changers whose butts Jesus kicked and drove out might disagree with you.

According to Maimonides, God does not have human form or emotions.

Jesus wept.

Where are you people getting this nonsense that God doesn't get angry?

Don't find Maimonides in the Scriptures anywhere.

Again, I believe that misfortunes that humans experience are the reactions that result from violations of God’s Law; not because God himself was personally ‘angry’ and sought revenge or punishment.

(Jesus, though, was human, a Man, despite whatever else he may have been; and I don’t doubt that HE became angry now and then, just as all of us human beans do. If He were NOT like us, and able to feel the spectrum of human emotion, what would his suffering have meant?)

Buck up!


That could have been written to me. I get so low sometimes that Dems are committing crimes all over the place and “just skate” while Trump and the rest of us are being pounded with worse to come.

Leftists mock God. Leftists are about to go into the extreme violence phases against all of us.

Set up is “Get in their faces” (Obama) and Maxine and comedians saying to confront conservatives at homes, restaurants, shows and elsewhere.

During the Trump campaign the leftist advice was found online saying try to get them fighting, hit them, insult their women,start something and get them reacting and punching you so it will show Trump supporters as violent rednecks on TV.
This was confirmed as true. The Leftists got the fights they wanted and the Leftist media showed the fights as they planned.

I am sorry but I take offense when anyone tries to say “both sides” are wrong. An old thing of mine when I finally get my self-esteem high enough to defend myself after being brought up by a Dem mother who was mentally ill and a hostile alcoholic and psychologically abused my sister and me. I carry a lot of anger now.

I don’t like people who kill millions of babies through abortions. I don’t like people who would gladly destroy politically conservative Jews and Christians to advance the Socialist anti-God plans they have.

May God protect us from the Leftists’ evil. Amen.

True — the glass half filled.

Donald’s forcefulness — even if it sometimes got clownish (which I can’t go for) found the left to be weak. The only thing the left could do was either give up the game or double down.

There have been way way darker times, this stuff is shallow compared to many of them.

But even that doesn't matter ... The World is always the World. Not good, not bad, but if you're attached to it ... very very dramatic and heavy.

You're suffering is not coming from the World, it's coming from your relationship to it. You believe it's more real than Heaven. Very big mistake! Don't flip the illusion with the reality. Hint: The World is the illusion, not the other way around.

The Happy Warrior is not happy because he's stronger than the World or because he's mastered it. In a way it's just the opposite. He doesn't bow before it, but he accepts it for what it is, and changes his relationship to it, bringing his relationship in line with the truth, the actual reality. The World is fallen, and it will never be other than that.

Wanting it to be other than fallen, that is, other than it simply is, is caused by delusion (mistaking what you are for your thinking, which is just your tool,) and causes depression or at best a temporal buzz of false pride and a short time inhabiting fake heaven.

Sometimes taking time away is a temporary bandaid way to detach from one's own attachment to, hypnosis by, the World. But when one returns with renewed energy and a clear mind, heart and thinking, the effort should be spent on spotting the illusion and practicing being in the World without being of it, rather than ignorantly and futiley trying to change the reality that the World is fallen and always will be, if one is to find a peace that's not temporal and relies on conditions both within, without, and at the border of oneself.

Have a good break! I hope you come back having accepted the world as it is, beautiful in all its ugliness, and ready to fight the silly lefties, who are oddly also part of heaven, even though they'll never know it, with sincerity and joy and an occasional passing tear rather than the heavy seriousness that characterizes a very good man confused because he doesn't see Heaven where it doesn't and never will exist and yet existed all along.

Stop misinterpreting the World!

Christians would partly agree and partly differ in saying that God is not like our present day mortal sinners. Jesus needed to be sinless to make a divine claim work. But His point is that the divine love isn’t impersonal. It is a sometimes suffering passion.

To be able to suffer without losing focus — that is ultimate righteousness.

The world holds illusions but it exists as much as I do.

We are all in need of some soul searching. This saga, with no end in sight, is burning me up as well. I think time spent in the Word is the healing balm we all need.

The World exists as an illusion.

It's not what you think.

Reagan brought a bounce back of the left.

Will Trump have a similar effect, or will he drive it so bats that it falls apart?

Donald so threatens to shake up the status quo that all who were on the left united against him in hatred.

All have sin. That doesn’t mean one side can’t be in a worse position than another.
