I think he already answered that: "I am not concerned with his moral defects. . . . NBD." Of course, he's also said he would never vote for someone who promotes abortion. (Looking back, he really meant "who is a democrat." If it's a republican - no big deal. No one's perfect.) Democrat/Republican same/same. It is the fight against progressive liberalism/socialism/communism that is my focus. My job and the job of my church family is to interfere with and slow progressive liberalism as much as possible within the bounds of law. I look at the spirit behind the movement. I look at the spirit behind the posts here on SC. It is the spirit of evil and it sometimes manifests with the appearance of light and good. The Bible guides us the try the spirits, 1 John 4. That is we have to look at the end of the movement not just the immediate factors. The main fear that I hold is that all of America will follow California's example. We have Detroit and Flint Michigan as examples of the end result. California is imploding on itself. We have folks that have migrated here and still have family there. They report it is terrible, crime and filth are spreading. Hilliary would have added fuel to that speeding train. With Donald Trump we have the hope of turning the track and slowing the process of the implosion at the end. America is still in for some very rough times. That is why the only true hope is in Christ for personal victory. No government, federal or state, is going to save you. We are paying the price for national sin. Individuals must pay the price individually. Forgiveness is available for you. We can only pray for our country and its leadership. Non of that has anything to do with Christianity.

Ever wonder what might be in that pre-nup with Melania? Jerry Baumchen $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

The fact is, if Obama had five children from three wives, with his current wife having dabbled in soft core lesbian porn, only to have her husband cheat on her with a hardcore porn star, Ron’s head would have exploded like a hydrogen bomb. Don't forget the abortions either actually had or in the case of Marla he told her to abort Tiffany. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Or the drunk to the cop, "I've driven WAY drunker than this and been fine..." "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Yes, it is the only time frame I've heard. A) The adultery was 2006, the illegal campaign contribution was just prior to the election. B) If the adultery was when Trump was seeking office, not just in business, would that make a difference? If the adultery was when Trump was President, would that make a difference? I can't imagine he and Melania are having sex, think he'll be able to hold out for another 2+ years? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

No clue. I just thought it was funny that a legal excuse for him could be that he's had to pay off so many women that he could say it's not unique to the campaign. I can't even imagine the kind of life Melania has right now, talk about a caged spouse. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Of course I did. I also considered him a socialist/communist, progressive liberal, Muslim sympathizer. He too is ancient history, I hope. Do you know that several of those things contradict each other or was that just the sentence Anne Coulter would say if she had tourette's? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Says who? A lawyer I was listening to on the radio. He said Tr could make a case for it if there was no direct evidence linking it to the campaign but that he would need to demonstrate a history of paying women for their silence that was unchanged going into the election. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Which would be legitimate if they were purely political partisan attacks. But concealing payoffs to porn stars and other high crimes. Should be paid for by trump personally. Not by tax-deductible political donations. The alleged payoff came from President Trump's attorney and the incident allegedly took place in 2006. President Trump was simply a business tycoon at that time. I know that fake news has a different account. NBD ETA: Are you concerned about the $15M Congressional Hush Fund? I'd love to hear your opinion on all of this if the person's last name were Clinton. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

As I understand, it's not unusual for attorneys to have specialized practices. One issue that this brings up is that if Cohen was already doing this before Trump was running for office then these things can be dismissed as not being illegal campaign contributions. I think we all know that Trump has a long history of paying his way out of compromising situations with females. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Worst advice I've heard in a while. The OP mentioned that this a newer jumper. The Katana is an elliptical canopy with an aggressive, ground-hungry design - NOT intended for young jumpers. A newbie should never jump a canopy with those qualities. This young lady is already having problems flaring completely and/or properly. An incomplete or improper flare under a Katana would not be pretty. This thread cannot be for real. Did I just end up on the sofpidarf page?

Since it's so common, why don't you tell us how the resignations, dismissals and indictments of Trump's staff compare with those of, say, Obama's or either of the Bushes' staffs. A comparison cannot be made, you know apples and oranges. Just wait, at the end of President Trump's first term the economy will be strong and the middle class will be living well. Do you not know that the economy has been good and on an upswing for the last two years? "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

This is the same voting population who haven't made a peep about Trump defunding the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program who's main beneficiaries are senior citizens on fixed incomes. I am one of those and I never heard of it. But, I don't play the system much, just VA once a year. Here are two sources for information. It's more prominent in the North where heating can be a life or death issue for senior citizens. One of the more underused programs is funding to update houses to be more energy efficient. https://www.payingforseniorcare.com/longtermcare/resources/liheap_financial_aid.html http://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/analysis/2018/02/21/federal-funding-for-low-income-energy-assistance-highest-in-new-england-upper-midwest "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Oh, just remembered that's the guy who tried to sue John Oliver http://splitsider.com/2018/02/john-oliver-reminds-coal-ceo-bob-murray-to-eat-shit-after-judge-dismisses-his-defamation-suit-against-last-week-tonight/ "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

If Clinton had done this Dan Bongino would be screaming from the rooftops. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Wow. I can't believe anyone in the room involved in the power industry would fall for that shit. As if coal is the only way to make 60 hz when it's cloudy. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

In the meantime there are 4 times as many jobs available in the solar industry as in coal but yeah let's prop up the failing coal sector by removing health and safety restrictions. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Here's a study on people's susceptibility to fake news and why conservatives believe negative news and liberals believe news with a positive outcome: http://www.danielmtfessler.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Fessler-et-al-in-press-Political-Orientation-Credulity.pdf "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Reminds me of a standoff from way back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y54aONB3dns "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

Of course they were injured! To the point of getting killed. Some people I swear.... just needs a kick in the nuts. If they don't have a goose cook-out then there's something wrong. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

What are your ultra-right wing nationalist sources telling you to think about this? You tell me! But I know this. I know what the left is being told what to think by CNN. Cuz it's been posted here already I block CNN, they're as useful as Fox for real information. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I'm just trying to make a point that we have more documentation of Belinda Carlisle having lived than we do of Jesus having lived and her words are very clear that Heaven is a place on Earth. "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher

I think we can wrap up this conversation by reciting the words of the Prophet Belinda Carlisle: "Ooh, baby, do you know what that's worth? Ooh, heaven is a place on earth They say in heaven, love comes first We'll make heaven a place on earth Ooh, heaven is a place on earth" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOGEyBeoBGM "I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher
