The editor in chief of Christianity Today explains his scathing editorial about the president’s behavior—and the damage he argues his fellow Christians are doing to the Gospel.

I don’t think it was until the impeachment hearings that there was some sort of smoking gun that was just unambiguously clear. The Mueller investigation was so confusing. It was hard to tell what was legal or illegal, moral or immoral. I just don’t know how that world works. But with the impeachment hearings, it became absolutely clear that he tried to use his power as the president to manipulate a foreign leader into getting dirt on his political enemies. That’s unconstitutional, and it’s immoral. So it was kind of a clear moment.

Consider what an unbelieving world will say if you continue to brush off Mr. Trump’s immoral words and behavior in the cause of political expediency.

Given that you guys have vomited that "Christian" editorial all over the forums, I'm going to proclaim that it's safe to say that ultra-Right evangelicals can be put on the list of people you love now too.

So let's see now... That's...

Vladimir Putin
John Bolton
Robert Mueller
John McCain
George W Bush
CIA
FBI
James Comey
The Evangelical Right C/O Mark Galli

I'm not missing anybody there, am I, Captain?

Should Mark Galli be higher on the list too?



I had a little look at Mark Galli's Twatter history. I thought it was kind of strange that he stopped using it in March of 2018, but I think I solved that mystery (see below).


Here's a few bangers that he put out in the past though:



He's not a big fan of gay rights...

We lost this one.



I'm not usually one to only read a headline and the first sentence, and I'm usually the guy scolding everybody else for making that their daily habit, but I think we know where the rest of that article was going.

For boomers and history buffs: Kennedy's Finest Moment

https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/11/opinion/kennedys-civil-rights-trium
ph.html?smid=tw-share


Quote:

Kennedy’s words anticipated some of the key themes found in King’s soaring March on Washington address two months later. And that shared moral force, that commonality of thinking between the two speeches, is the most important reason to remember the president’s address, 50 years ago today: it reminds us of a forgotten moment of the civil rights era, when presidential leadership and grass-roots activism worked in creative tension to turn the narrative of civil rights from a regional issue into a national story promoting racial equality and democratic renewal.


Civil Rights for EVERYBODY!

Except for those goddamned fags.


Oh... wait. Nevermind. Hypocrisy is something you guys actively engage in everyday and are FULLY on board with.

Quote:

Many media outlets are expressing shock, unable to concieve of a God or a world in which God might actually make something good from something horrid, that the child of rape or incest could be considered a divine gift. Note the tone and disgust of the Atlantic Wire summary of the story.



You heard it right here, ladies. Drop you weekend plans and go out and get raped this weekend in the name of God, and you too can have a Miracle Baby of your own.

Oh... well that probably explains why he hasn't used his Twatter in nearly 2 years. Four years later he seemed to have finally taken his own advice. His guilt for greedily gorging on all those internet apples that Satan was feeding him seemed to have finally caught up with him.

You might not remember

Sorry to inform you, but Trump was impeached. The impeachment alarm clock bell has rung and it can't be unrung:

When is an impeachment NOT an impeachment? Now that's a philosophical question for the ages.

It's a bit like abortion. Is the line between fetus and birth? Between fetus and pain? After conception? After the pregnancy fails to advance? After the tissues are resorbed?

Tell me SECOND, is it too late for your abortion?

Posted happily drunk!

JSF's post works as a metaphor. A figure of speech in which a word or phrase that ordinarily designates one thing is used to designate another, thus making an implicit comparison. In this instance exposing his level of intelligence or lack there of.

Trump has been impeached. Done, over...

And, quietly, the tissues of conception are resorbed. The bell is unrung.

Sorry to inform you, but politics, law and engineering are not reproductive biology. If McConnell won't allow the witnesses chosen by the prosecutors, then Trump's trial is not gonna start. If Trump won't allow Mulvaney, Bolton, and Pompeo to testify, again, the trial won't start. If the White House won't turn over documents, evidence, tax returns, the trial won't start. We knew for years that McConnell and the other GOP Senators, except for maybe Romney and Susan Collins, will instantly vote not guilty before the trial even starts, which is why it is not starting.

White House lawyers have made the argument that the President has the constitutional authority to ignore all congressional requests because he cannot be indicted, convicted, or investigated. In brief, as President he stands above the law. All the lower court rulings thus far have dismissed this argument as frivolous. Perhaps the cases can be bundled and decided by the Supreme Court sooner rather than later. Until then, Trump's trial is not starting.

Pelosi has no Constitutional authority to determine what happens in the Senate. "the Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments ..."

As far as I'm concerned, the House can hang on to that useless charade as long as it wants - into infinity (or until it expires in 2021, like any bill that's failed to move out of the House). It'll be a noose around their necks, politically-speaking. They'll have to keep stumping the same tired-old slogans that people have already written off.


You know what ** I ** find funny?

Nobody can quote Trump as saying anything except "I want nothing.". And it looks like the text of the phone call isn't enough, which is why the House wants additional testimony. So, absent a quotable quote from Trump, and with the phone call falling short, according to the testimony (which you'd know if you bothered with it), Giuliani is the linchpin in all of the supposed extortion. And the House wants nothing to do with him. They've never demanded even once that Giuliani testify. It's almost like they're afraid of what he'll say.

That's what I find funny.

FLIES SHIT.

Yeah... um... actually...

lol

It sounds like impeachment might have not actually been official.



That would seriously be hilarious if it ends up being true.
