Today's Sermon

Brought to you by Pastor Erick Erickson. Listen to your betters, lest the fire consume you!  And the lions eat you!

You describe yourself as an evangelical and you have latched on to Donald Trump. You are convinced that you can guide and shape Donald Trump’s views. Days have gone by since the Supreme Court effectively ordered a pro-life pharmacist to violate his conscience. More days have gone by since the Court’s abortion decision related to Texas. On both Trump has stayed silent. But you are justifying that silence because Trump is relying on a statement from and other evangelicals as if you are speaking for him.

To get to this point, you have rationalized in your mind that you are Daniel. That makes Trump either Nebuchadnezzar or Cyrus. But he is neither and you are not Daniel. You have twisted the Bible to comfort yourself for selling your soul. You are an idol worshipper.

Read the whole thing HERE. Really, you must read this. What an ass.

And always remember, never forget, that YOU are not Daniel. Got it?

I Am An Ignorant Low Information Bastard

That's good to know. Thanks Larry. Love ya too. From Larry Correia's facebook page and posted without further comment.

Well, we're boned. It's going to be huckster fraud democrat against lying criminal democrat.

Half the GOP hates the jackass. Question now is what percentage of us stay home or make a 3rd party protest vote. All those crossover democrats who voted for that orange half wit in the primaries will go back to voting democrat in the general election. He thinks young Bernie voters are going to vote for him? Fool.

I've voted republican in every election of my adult life. I've volunteered and donated money. I can't in good conscience vote for this vile populist demagogue. If even a few percentage points of the GOP feels the same way, that's it. He's toast in the general.

So he energizes the democrats, so they'll feel like they are fighting tyranny (now comes the great part where all the fawning media coverage turns on him) and he demotivates the republican base.

All the kid glove BS from this season is over. Every vile nasty stupid thing he has ever done will be covered 24/7. By November he will be the most laughed at and despised candidate in history. Because he makes it too easy.

So the classless boor probably loses to the sea hag. Not that it matters too much, since they'd both govern as authoritarian democrats, only one has more nationalist rah rah thrown in.

Spare me the nonsense about lesser evils and SCOTUS judges. He won't make it that far. And by some miracle, like Hillary has a stroke, this rambling ignoramus wins, he would still screw that up somehow in his one term. Big question is does he suck enough to take the GOP with him?

And if you think he is going to actually build a wall, you are a sucker.

Did I love Cruz? No. Because I was hiring an employee, not a god. He was the least likely to rape the Constitution. Instead we get an authoritarian, who is either lying, or made it to 70 before understanding basic American principles about liberty.

You ignorant low information bastards. Motivated by fear and anger, you overlooked every gain made over the last few cycles, and traded it in to a lying huckster democrat for some magic beans. So you could stick it to the establishment, by electing the shit bird who funded them.

Edit to add, don't bother posting to argue. We are past that. Now we batten down the hatches and get ready for the suck. If you want to gloat, you are an idiot who doesn't realize what you have wrought. If you feel disrespected, good. You should.

Clinton v. Trump

Barring Cankles being indicted or The Donald's heart stopping:

Now what? Will the conservatives get on board with Trump, or will they burn it down? Inquiring minds want to know.

I couldn't resist this last pic!

Government By Freakout

Oh my. Check out this jaw-dropping article at the WSJ:

And then you remind yourself why. Because Mr. Obama thrives in chaos. He flourishes in unsettled circumstances and grooves on his own calm. He spins an air of calamity, points fingers and garners support. His only opponent is a hapless, hydra-headed House. America has a weakness for winners, and Republicans just now do not look like winners. They have many voices but no real voice, and no one saying anything that makes you stop and think. Mr. Obama, on the other hand, is a singular character who tells you in measured tones that we must have measured answers. Half the country finds his politics to be too much to one side, but his temperament is not extreme and he often looks reasonable. With this gift he ties his foes in knots to get what he wants, which is higher taxes. He wants the rich to pay more and those he judges to be in need to receive more. End of story. Debt and deficits don't interest him, except to the extent he must give them lip service.

The author may surprise you. This is well worth a careful read; you can find it here.
