Implications of childish behavior

Reading and hearing about the fact of Dems behavior yesterday at the speech by President Trump (it is SO good to be able to type out the name of the President of the USA ).

One great summary is located here – which by the way is a great resource about the news and some fair handed analysis.

I commented on the story but the more I think about it, I figured I should comment here.

Hypocrisy & immaturity – trademarks of the Dems. But u know what it may have clearly revealed to everyone with a discerning spirit – that the list of “causes/issues” really isn’t aligned to their values/passions/beliefs. Their values and passion is ALL about how to keep power. So they lost the Presidential election and control over the Congress, so now they sulk because they want those in their home states to continue to vote for them in so they can retain their power & prestige. Which then begs to ask/inquire about – so then why would the Dems actually manage the issues in a manner that they could be as quickly as possible – resolved to the best of its ability? Why would they handle some sensitive subject matter in a way that would promote unity and understanding instead of division? Because if they would do so – they lose their identity in politics and quite possibly their power and prestige —- their office.

“Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.”

“This country was started by a bunch of Christians from Europe, who had been influenced by the preaching and teaching of Luther, Calvin, Knox, and the Reformers; they came over here and settled. When the time came to set up a government, the leaders had to base it on the Bible to get the Christians to accept it. One of those “Founding Fathers” (John Adams) said,

“Our Constitution was made only for a religious and moral people. It is wholly inadequate for the government of any other.”

If that’s the case, this nation is shot. The culture of the Pilgrims, Wesley, Whitefield, Edwards, Asbury, Cartwright, Moody, Sunday, et al., is gone. The church in America no longer has any influence. When the basic “freedom” is the right to fornicate at will with whomever (or whatever!), instead of the freedom to worship and serve God as the Bible says, it’s over.”

Dear President-elect Donald Trump

PLEASE – on your first day in office release to the world the proof that Israel has that the anti-semitic resolution recently written was by O’s administration.

PLEASE – release a week later the frivolous “proof” that O was wheeling and dealing that MSM has as usual embraced which supposedly proves Russia helping you in the election.

You and your administration need to communicate to the citizens of the country first in methods/ways outside the MSM and then to the MSM. This is the only way to force the MSM in reporting truth from your administration.

SB 1322 bars law enforcement from arresting sex workers who are under the age of 18 for soliciting or engaging in prostitution, or loitering with the intent to do so

Beginning on Jan. 1, prostitution by minors will be legal in California. Yes, you read that right.

SB 1322 bars law enforcement from arresting sex workers who are under the age of 18 for soliciting or engaging in prostitution, or loitering with the intent to do so. So teenage girls (and boys) in California will soon be free to have sex in exchange for money without fear of arrest or prosecution.

This terribly destructive legislation was written and passed by the progressive Democrats who control California’s state government with a two-thirds “supermajority.”

As Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O’Malley, a national leader on human trafficking issues, told the media, “It just opens up the door for traffickers to use these kids to commit crimes and exploit them even worse.” Another prosecutor insightfully observed that if traffickers wrote legislation to protect themselves, it would read like SB 1322.

Minors involved in prostitution are clearly victims, and allowing our law enforcement officers to pick these minors up and get them away from their pimps and into custody is a dramatically better solution than making it legal for them to sell themselves for sex. That only deepens their victimization and renders law enforcement powerless to stop the cycle of abuse. SB 1322 is not simply misguided — its consequences are immoral.

Unfortunately for Californians, SB 1322 isn’t an outlier — it’s only the tip of the liberal iceberg. 2017 will see the Golden State subjected to wave after wave of laws taking effect that are well-intentioned but disastrous embodiments of progressive utopianism.
