• 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.

Nothing in what they said would indicate that "they" were trying to cause division. What is revealed is evident in the crazy response of right wingers is they know that they are pushing the limits of the law and have been told this by the courts.

Trump "heard" what he wanted to hear, not what they actually said. Trump demands loyalty, not legality.
Well, he is their Commander-in-Chief, so it's a reasonable expectation.

No, loyalty rather than legality is not a reasonable expectation.

He's not the CIC for Kelly and the others. He's the President. Being CIC does not make him an infallible leader. It's the military's duty to obey the UCMJ, not the President.

Sen. Mark Kelly is right. If you get an illegal order by the president. You shouldn't do it. Trump pass horrible, illegal things. That cost innocent people lives. It's better not to go to prison, after Trump is gone.
