Wow! I am not the poster you are addressing, but must ask, what are you talking about?? A lot of name calling there but no substance at all. His words tell what story?? I'm not seeing anything that you're suggesting in the post you are addressing......not by a long shot. And let me ask - what would make you post such an angry, hate-filled post??

??? you are the one ranting. It must be humbling to see that other people are on the same page, which happens to be a different page that you are on.

As far as the comments about certain posters being un-Christian, I have to agree. Christ spent his life helping the poor, sick and needy. He didn't speak about homosexuality or abortion. He embraced those from the lowest rungs of society by saying that those for whom much had been given, much is expected. He taught love, hope, compassion and forgiveness. He warned against those who would manipulate the word of God for their own selfish ambitions. He opposed greed and encouraged giving. You know, the exact oppose of what Republicans stand for.

You might want to read the Bible instead of getting the children's golden book version, or watching the TV movie version. You obviously missed the boat on Christ's teachings and the difference in his teachings and politics. But, nice attempt. If you are going to attempt to dwell in a subject that you are ignorant of, do your research first. That way, you look less the idiot.

I agree! ...and I am not talking to myself. There are more than a few liberals who post here.

It is the Gang of Formerly Six who just rants among themselves. Pathetic.

Again, I'm not the poster you are addressing and this is totally off topic, but I don't think you or I or anyone else is fit to deem who is a Christian and who is not. That is not for a third party to decide, but rather between the individual and Christ only. To make that judgment about another person is sinful in itself. Knowing the Bible quite well from years of study, I have to say that your short summary of Christ's teachings is obviously skewed in such a way that you are doing exactly what you condemn others for doing, which is manipulating the Word of God for your own purposes. I find it rather ironic that no one else (unless I missed something ) has brought up religion on this thread except the 2 posters that seem to find it necessary to judge and condemn others.

I mean, other than your pathetic attempts to converse with yourself.

Your original rant was answered in detail. Your reply was juvenile at best. Since you do not allow for anyone to answer you point by point without lapsing into a deranged rant, I will ask you the question that you were asked earlier: What have the Democrats accomplished of note, other than give away the farm? And if your really believe your rant about Democrats wishing a balanced budget, why did they never have a budget for the first part of two terms of this administration.

We are not far right. Trump is not far right. Like you might have said earlier, he was a Democrat before he was a Republican. I don't believe you know what "far right" means. Convince me that you do and find me someone that you believe is "far right" in congress.

I realize that you won't answer my questions, because all you do is try to convince yourself that you are not a flaming liberal, and that you are the only normal one on here. Perhaps you are too young to know what normal is. Normal appears to be a thing of the past, now that we have you "progressives" ha, ha.

So, before you get angry at the world and this forum, remember that you don't have to participate. YOu can always put your little smart phone away and go join some radical protest down at Barnes and Noble or something.

And yes "there is a world outside the bubble." Where do you think all of us adults originated? And there are others that feel the way we do. It's just that we are senior enough that PC does not matter and the loud "gimmies" of the lazy take away from the unfortunate that have worked hard and had some hardships. You liberals attempt to work guilt trips into any debate, when the fact is that you have grand ideas with no idea of how to pay for them. Taxing the rich is ALWAYS your answer to using the credit card.

Either contribute to the debate or live with answers that you don't like. But, you were answered, got your attention, so either be satisfied or .....not. I was kind enough to allow you some attention so learn to live within your limitations.
You never change. You are beyond hope. You talk out of both sides of the mouth all the time, and don't realize it. You don't consider your post as a rant, but when I answer in kind, mine is a rant. You are driving down a lovely one way street.

You were kind to me. Why did you say that to make you feel better about yourself? Well, it didn't work. You are totally transparent. For some reason known only to you, you think what you are doing is normal behavior. In the real world when you start very conversation insulting the person you are talking to, that person would tell you to go bleep yourself, and they would be justified in doing so.

I answered your questions, because you don't like the answers that isn't my problem. Since all your posts start by insulting someone, why should anyone consider you an adult?

I'm angry, and you know this how? Other than Morning Joe, the programs that I watch on TV are sports, and comedies. That makes me angry at the world. That's funny. I am real mad, because people are trying to make me laugh. Well, I am laughing at you. That must make you a comedian. The first rule of a radical is wanting to be entertained by laughing. That is why they are so mad. People can't make them laugh at everything.

I don't have a smart phone. I have a flip phone. So, keep on telling me what I am, because you are so good at it.

Why should I answer anything that you put forward? You completely ignore anything that doesn't fit in your little world, but I will try. Paul Ryan made demands before he became Speaker of the House. These demands were directed at the people that made Boehner's life unbearable. These demands weren't directed at the Democrats, moderate or conservative Republicans. They were directed at the far right. So, you going to sit there with a straight face and say Paul Ryan didn't know, who he would be dealing with?

Sorry, I read your post over a couple of times, but if you go back and read it yourself, I am sure you will agree that it is an incoherent mess.

You seem to be so angry, but you still can't seem to communicate any details of what you are blathering on about. Something about not agreeing with Ryan, for some reason. No one has brought up his name in a long time. You seem to jump from one direction to another.

As far as addressing your comment, I attempted to answer your different thoughts with directed replies. It is a challenge though. You are all over the place in your anger.

I am sorry that no one else was sympathetic enough to allow you a little of their consideration. I did my best to address all of your thoughts(?) and cannot be blamed for not responding the way you wish. I can see why you would probably wish to vote for Hillary, in that you two have a lot in common. Anger issues comes to mind first.

At any rate, if you find that you cannot get any satisfaction on this forum, please feel free to attack me at your leisure. My skin has toughened up with age but is still quite resilient.

Nice response - very Christian-like, NOT. I rest my case.

You were kind to me.WHAT CAN I SAY, IT DIDN"T WORK Why did you say that to make you feel better about yourself? OBVIOUSLY,DUH! Well, it didn't work.ALSO OBVIOUSLY You are totally transparent.I'M A GHOST? For some reason known only to you, you think what you are doing is normal behavior. TRUE In the real world when you start very conversation insulting the person you are talking to, that person would tell you to go bleep yourself, and they would be justified in doing so. MAYBE ONCE,IF THEY HAD THE GUTS. Probably not you though.

I answered your questions, because you don't like the answers that isn't my problem. WHAT QUESTIONS? Since all your posts start by insulting someone, why should anyone consider you an adult? AND THEY SHOULD CONSIDER YOU ONE?

I'm angry, and you know this how? YOUR MOMMA DESERTED YOU WHEN YOU WERE A BABY? Other than Morning Joe, the programs that I watch on TV are sports, and comedies. That makes me angry at the world.BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT UP ON CURRENT EVENTS? That's funny. I am real mad, because people are trying to make me laugh. Well, I am laughing at you. That must make you a comedian. The first rule of a radical is wanting to be entertained by laughing. I AM GLAD YOU INFORMED ME OF RADICAL RULES, thank you. That is why they are so mad. People can't make them laugh at everything.

I don't have a smart phone. I have a flip phone. FANTASTIC, so do I, we have something in common. So, keep on telling me what I am, because you are so good at it. I appreciate that compliment, really.

Why should I answer anything that you put forward? YOU ALREADY SAID YOU DID. Did you forget? You completely ignore anything that doesn't fit in your little world, but I will try. Paul Ryan made demands before he became Speaker of the House. These demands were directed at the people that made Boehner's life unbearable. These demands weren't directed at the Democrats, moderate or conservative Republicans. They were directed at the far right. So, you going to sit there with a straight face and say Paul Ryan didn't know, who he would be dealing with?Probably a good question, if one knew what you were babbling about.
It's alive...!!!

What dos an atheist consider "Christian-like?" Come on good buddy, lets hear it so that we can all enjoy the edification. And why did you presume that because someone is a conservative with ethics and morals, that they had to be a Christian? Although, that is normally a given. Just like one automatically assumes that liberals, with no ethics and morals are atheists. Another given.
