• 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. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Today in Trump

Just for posterity:

Wednesday night Trump declared that Obama and Clinton founders and MVP's of ISIS.

On Thursday morning, during an interview with conservative talk show host Hugh Hewitt, Trump declared that he did not mean that figuratively, or rhetorically, but did indeed believe that Obama and Clinton were the literal founders of ISIS.

Less than 30 hours after his initial comments, and less than 24 hours after his "clarification", on his Twitter account, Trump mocks CNN for reporting what he said, and claimed that when he said Obama and Clinton were founders and MVP's of ISIS, he was being sarcastic.

An increasing number of Republicans are trying to dump Mega Mouth. They are fearful of being slaughtered in Congressional, as well as the Presidential election. I suppose they might have given up on the latter:

Mega Mouth supporters seem to have gone very quiet on here.

Funny how his supporters give him credit for "saying what he means" yet then are completely willing to excuse what he says because he obviously didn't mean it.

Donald Trump Says He Gives His Workers Childcare. His Workers Say That’s Baloney.

Trump went on to describe two specific programs called “Trump Kids” and “Trumpateers,” which according to reporting from the AP are not for employees but rather guests of his hotels and golf club.

So they want somebody who doesn't know fact from fiction in the White House.

If I was a Republican politician, I would be heading for the drinks cupboard right now - even though I am teetotal.

His foreign policy speech today:

Trump softened the tone of previous comments on a number of things, including his description of NATO as “obsolete” and filled with members who don’t pay their fair share for U.S. “protection.” He said the United States would work closely with NATO on counterterrorism, and he congratulated the alliance for establishing a new division to handle the threat “since my comments.”​

NATO first committed to increased counterterrorism activities at its summit in Wales in 2012.

I was going to make a time machine joke about his comment, but that won't help him.

You know you've really put your foot in it when even a time machine won't save you.

Trump names Breitbart chairman as CEO of his campaign.

It was Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields who was manhandled at a Trump event by former Trump campaign manager Lewandoski. Fields did not feel supported by Breitbart management, and she and others resigned.

By March 14 several top executives and journalists at Breitbart had resigned complaining that "...Breitbart’s unabashed embrace of Mr. Trump, particularly at the seeming expense of its own reporter, struck them as a betrayal of its mission."
