Yeah, I was complimenting, not complaining. Smile

Boru

And it's a compliment well-earned. I think a few of the Roberts court's decisions will be viewed by historians as badly as Dred Scott or Plessy.

It's almost as if he thinks no one but a judge is capable of reading and understanding the Constitution.
He simply doesn't understand that the only person destroying his reputation is himself.

Well, that and the other conservatives on the Supreme Court. He couldn’t have gotten this far without them.

Don't the filthy plebs understand that the law means they can't have what they want, whatever that is?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

If you want to rationalize your support of a strongman, you have to make sure regular democratic processes are ineffective in performing their intended functions.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's all corruption - but that part is actually donald making good on a deal for once. The clerics on the bench are there to stop people bortin babies, and divert education funding to churches. They let him commit crimes and do racist shit, it's only fair they get their things too.

This is how we all know donald is the leader god appointed.

The nutters have captured all three branches of government. The only thing left to do is hunker down until the storm passes.
