  1. Better tell these people the Northwest passage is not real.... LOL.

    In Warmer Climate, A Luxury Cruise Sets Sail Through Northwest Passage

     

    It has 13 decks, eight restaurants, a casino and a spa. Staterooms start at about $20,000 and run as high as $120,000.

    And it's about to journey through the Northwest Passage.

    Crystal Cruises

    The Crystal Serenity is the largest cruise ship to navigatefrom Alaska to New York City, by way of the Arctic Ocean. And as climate change opens up the top of the world, it may be just the first taste of what's to come.

    Sitting in one of those pricey staterooms, passenger Moira Somers says that for most of the people onboard, the ship is as much a destination as the Arctic.

    "When you start your cruise ... and you see the ship, it's goosebump stuff," she says.

    How does a woman not let a man forcibly and suddenly grab her? I mean besides going all ninja, shooting them, or punching them in the nether-regions? I'm sure a lot of women would have loved to have those options during their ordeals of being assaulted by a man. Some women simply freeze and close themselves off mentally in order to 'survive' such attacks. Are they 'letting them'?

     

    You can expect to be presented with some sort of Twinkie defense, in order to rebuff your sensible argument.

    The public intellectual argued the cultish nature of the Trump presidency could have dangerous consequences if the US president’s position and power was to degenerate yet further SAUL LOEB/AFP/Getty Images

    Donald Trump is akin to a cult leader and his supporters are reminiscent of disciples of a sect, according to a religious studies scholar.

    Reza Aslan, an Iranian-American author, said he was using the word cult in the “pejorative sense” and argued the US president's supporters were united by a fanatical devotion to their leader. 

    Aslan, who is a creative writing professor at the University of California, Riverside, said the intense sentiments expressed by President Trump’s support base shared more parallels with religion than politics

    You can also observe the severity of the hissy fits Trump's adorants eagerly pitch whenever he's exposed for what he is. They doubt their own ears at his taped confession to sexual assault, and are willing to guzzle his cool-aid in a world of alternate-facts and distorted reality. I've said before that Jong Un has every reason to be jealous of our so-called president.

    Sadly I dont disagree with you that in a good number of cases those that beat the drum the loudest against gays, sex outside of marriage, drinking, etc in many cases come up lacking in some of those areas.

     

    With a little drama I wanted to point out there are a good number of decent christian people out there

     

    A really devout catholic friend of mine posted this today. She was also my moms Hospice nurse . It speaks for it self.

     

    The best thing that can be said for any man. Not sure who to credit. I agree 100% and that is why you have not heard me defending Moore , he is the Antifa wing of the right wing.

    This captures the essence of what I said.

    Just thinking about this a little more during the day: if Moore were subpoenaed to testify before the Senate about this matter, and it could be proven that he lied under oath, that's perjury and there could be penal or more likely monetary sanctions for perjurious conduct. If he were already elected, he could be impeached and expelled as well.

     

    The GOP is already talking about expelling him, in the event he is elected.

    Every last one huh? Do you know every Christian in the US. I know a lot of very decent moral people that have a deep faith, and many that talk the talk but don't walk the walk. I am not a  religious person but that was a very encompassing statement you made there that encompass a very broad demographic .

     

    I wonder how high the MDL would jump if I said something dumb like, every single Muslim is a terrorist at root, which is of course absurd. 

     

    You'd have to ask them directly. I am sure, that you know every MDL in the US, otherwise you'd neve make a comment that encompasses a very wide demographic.

    Interesting article on fundamentalist culture where some Christian men date teens

    the coastal elites spoil everything!

     

     

    Ah, yes. I am sure that's what Jesus would have done, had he lived longer.

    Just to be fair the Democrats have had just as many slezzeballs .Wiener comes to mind , as does Rod Blagojevich. I could go on and on. Neither party has the moral high ground.

     

    And of course electing Clinton a known sexual predator for a 2nd term.

     

    Or even voting for Trump even though he confessed to sexual assault and being sexual predator. Not only has neither party the moral high ground, their voters are just the same as well.  By allowing Moore to continue with his candidacy at this point only shows that the entire Clinton/Lewinsky story was just a big load of fake outrage and bovine manure.

    Wait  Putin says I have nothing to do with election interference, The IC community says yup it points right to the Kremlin.   It seems to be a binary choice there.

     

    Dossiers? there are more?  

    Are you forgetting:  sealed search warrants, grand juries, a confession of guilt, two arraignments and a President who just cannot seem to stop making himself look guilty of something. 

     

    Not really. If Supreme Leader says Putin's innocent and has nothing to do with it, then it can't possibly not be true.
