    fulness of bread
    abundance of idleness
    neither strengthening the hand of the poor and needy.

    Ezekiel 16:49 "Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy."

    Sounds like the democratic party today.

    The good news for the rest of us though, we won't be having a shortage of salt anytime soon.

    More like, if we lose we will handle it like adults and move on with our lives. Not throw tantrums in the street for two years and scream at the sky.

    That would be refreshing however I seriously doubt our whiney infant in chief will handle it that way. More likely blame it on immigrants, or illegal voters or Nancy Pelosi or even Clinton or Obama.

    Such a person would not consider having their best intentions for others imposed upon them by force of law to be a usurpation of other people's best intentions for themselves. They would consider it the only reasonable alternative to chaos or having their counterpart's best intentions imposed upon them by force, or by mere exposure.

    I get the impression that the Democratic tantrum over Kavanaugh may have doomed them in the mid-terms...........
    our Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is doing them quite a bit of harm from up here as well..........

    Everybody is wondering why Kavanaugh and President Trump are so hated..... but Bill and Hillary are loved???????????

    That is kind of like accepting Herod and Herodias..... and wanting to behead John the Baptist and crucify Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus...... (not exactly mind you...... but some similarities)!

    is there a distinction ever made on 'immigrants' verses 'illegal' immigrants?

    What are 'illegal' voters? 'illegal' immigrants?

    Isn't the U.S against criminal activity or is it loosening its standards and ethics on crime?

    'illegal' is a crime, right?


    illegal

    adjective
    1. forbidden by law or statute.
    2. contrary to or forbidden by official rules, regulations, etc.:

    Aren't these 'crimes'/criminal offenses, even if a misdemeanor?


    Please tell me you knew that illegal and criminality went hand in hand..


    Before there was illegal motion in football, there were illegal acts in public.

    No clearly this administration has nothing against white collar crime or gun crime. Just immigrant crime and victimless drug crime.
