• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

is anyone else here bummed that Tulsi Gabbard didn’t get put forward as a nominee?

It’s the most charitable interpretation of her support for appeasement.
So you have no evidence. Just out of curiosity, where does giving billions of dollars to Iran fall into the "support for appeasement" and "admiring" foreign dictators?

This is what I don't get about liberals. Like you guys realize Iran fully supports Russia, sells drones to their war effort and that they hate your liberal values to the point they would throw you all off rooftops if they could get their hands on you.

And yet that somehow doesn't matter.

Then there's China where many liberals don't want trade war with them and want to make excuses for or downplay the threat. When they also fully support Russia, seek to invade an actual democracy and also oppose many liberal values.

Russia, China and Iran are an Axis together. You have to oppose all three or it's meaningless when it comes to their geopolitical goals.

Okay so why do you support giving a terror state their money back?
It was part of an effort to get them to agree to inspections of their nuclear facilities and try to get more normalization of relations which I saw as an improvement.
