Same exact thoughts I had when I scanned the blogs this morning.

What makes me laugh in the mornings Skariff... is the absolutely absurd way they see their country and it's people. Democrats are corrupt murdering liars and trumpers can do no wrong since they are perfect!. The odds against that must be in the gazillions! They completely ignore the fact that human beings are individuals. That's why they can state that they believe in the human freedoms... while at the same time denying them to all but themselves.

What else can a reasonable person do, but laugh.

You decided that kavanaugh and trump are innocent. Why do you think it's fine for you to make a decision on that ...but not for Skarriff to do so?

I don't think he is "...an American journalist." He is a Saudi Arabian journalist who fled to the United States in 2017. I can understand your concern about the method and means of what amounts to an alleged brutal execution. I used the word alleged because we are dealing with some serious speculation at the moment. No one deserves to die in this manner.

Were you equally concerned when Obama was lobbing Tomahawk Cruise Missiles throughout the middle-east, killing women and children by the dozens?

II didn't think so.

So...what are you trying to say? That because he was only a murdering, corrupt Liberal journalist and not even American...it was his fault he died?
Just like you decided, without any proof at all that Ms Ford was guilty?
It was his right to disagree with the rulers of his own country...and to question them.

Someone else you disapproved of because he didn't think like you?
He had a lot more courage than you...and a lot more real faith.

Sparkle, however much sense you speak... however much honesty...you are speaking to a man who thinks having a pastor for a son-in-law makes him a better Christian and a better Human Being than you and I. And anyone who disagrees with him.

These are people who do not understand what the human freedoms actually are, or what they even mean. They insist that..."the Freedoms" began with America!
That is so evident in maisie's comment to me on this blog. It shows a marked ignorance of basic facts. And absolutely no knowledge of reality.

For some people.. there is NEVER "enough" proof to change their mind..Because what they believe needs no proof..

It's absolutely mind-boggling,the justification people come up with....when there is no "justification".. but he obvious.

for example.....The first Foriegn State Trump visited was the KINGDOM... two years have gone by and still there is no ambassador to Saudi Arabia.. Maybe its because we don't need one?
Or maybe Trump's circle is not wide enough, to assure keeping everything "in house"

So maybe we do have an "unnamed co-conspirator" as ambassador to Saudi Arabia.. A friend to power....the back channel guy...who will keep it all in house..
Jared Kushner?

Which never seems to makes sense.. Like a lot of things. like who's controlling who....The elephant in the room, or the guy getting the "peanuts"
The Jew in the woodpile or the Prince MOHAMMED..... Donnie's Money Machine or the Gremlin in the Kremlin..

FOA bigblock

From BBC News this morning...

Journalist Jamal Khashoggi was killed in a fight in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, the country's state TV reported quoting an initial probe.

It said deputy intelligence chief Ahmad al-Assiri and Saud al-Qahtani, senior aide to Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, were dismissed over the affair.

"US President Donald Trump said what had happened was "unacceptable" but that Saudi Arabia was a "great ally".

This is the first time the kingdom has admitted Mr Khashoggi has died.

The acknowledgement follows two weeks of denials that Saudi Arabia had any involvement in the disappearance of the prominent Saudi critic when he entered the consulate in Istanbul on 2 October to seek paperwork for his upcoming marriage."

This is not the full article, you can find it for yourself...you don't have to believe me.
Ask yourself this...Why would a man be murdered for trying to arrange his marriage? Then ask yourself what you... as a professed Christian...think about it.

No, what is truly "mind-boggling" is that you and your liberal cohorts are so concerned because the Saudi Arabian government probably had a Saudi Arabian journalist killed in Turkey. But you have no problem with Planned Parenthood aborting more than 58 million unborn children.

National Right to Life estimates that, since the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion 43 years ago in Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, more than 58 million unborn children have lost their lives.

Are you trying to blame me for the crimes of those men because I happen to be Scottish? How supremely childish and hypocritical of you...is this what you call "sticking to the subject of the blog" AND ALL BECAUSE YOU ARE MAD THAT YOU HAVE BEEN PROVED WRONG.

If that's the kind of allies Trump wants for America...along with Putin and Kim Jong Un, all of them murderers too, then you Trumpers deserve all you get.

The great pity is... there are millions of decent Americans who deserve so much better.

You are the windbag you stupid old man.

In places where women can have a safe abortion without any of the spurious tactics that US state governments have enacted in order to delay abortion, a scalpel isn't used. Up to the 9th week of pregnancy, a medical abortion is usual.....Suction is used up to about 12 weeks.

So...why even bring them up?

Those men have absolutely nothing to do with this blog and I did not ask you about them. Did you hope to make me feel guilt or shame because they are Scottish? Well, sorry... but I don't feel either. Those men were not Scotland, they were individuals who chose to commit their awful crimes. They did not do it because they were Scottish, any more than Dahmer and Bundy did theirs because they were American. Each of them committed their crimes because they, as individuals, felt entitled to do so.
YOU are the only who saw any link between them and me and whether you like my saying it or not... it is absolutely ridiculous... especially in the context of this blog. It was just another avenue in your never ending quest to bash me...and other Liberal women.

It shows just how tiny your mind actually is.
