Random Politics & Religion #21

Dem rep calling for an investigation into Nunes now.

We're reaching swamp levels never before thought achievable.

You honestly think the Dems aren't going to "Lawfare tactics" the hell out of any Republican who publishes/points out that Trump was surveyed for reasons other than the Russian witchhunt?

I'm surprised that a 9th Circuit Judge hasn't already signed off the arrest warrant for Nunes for spying yet.

I'm not 100% on why all the "religion is the opium of the people" karl marx~y stuff doens't seem to apply to islamic faith.

we'll drag a jesus freak cake baker into court for not putting two dudes as a cake topper and then boycott him and try to ruin his business...but then look the other way as gay people are stoned to death? and we're all ok with it? because? religious freedom?
did they ok abortion when I wasn't looking? or give any rights to women?

they still make women cover their heads in the presance of a man and walk behind them in public the last time I checked.....

so... we're going to circle back around and address that later or what? what's the plan?

Also: CJ worthy "news" opinion piece....

Washington (CNN)In a last-minute effort to sink the Republican health care bill, a powerful network of conservative donors said Wednesday it would create a new fund for Republican 2018 reelection races -- but they'll only open it up to GOPers who vote against the bill.

The advocacy groups helmed by Charles and David Koch have unveiled a new pool of money for advertisements, field programs and mailings that would exclude those who vote for the health care bill they oppose on Thursday. The effort, which they described as worth millions of dollars, is an explicit warning to on-the-fence Republicans from one of the most influential players in electoral politics not to cross them.

The Koch-aligned networks oppose the bill because they think it does not do enough to scale back former President Barack Obama's health care policies....

Who's ok with this exactly?

the reason has to be one that doesn't bring religion into the mix

so we can discriminate aginst people.. just as long as we aren't honest about it?

If you believe that there is yhr slightest of Ryancare making it out of the house....

Kochs pledge millions to GOPers in 2018 -- if they vote no on health care bill

There's more

However, if you are from Ohio and you target is from Michigan; then you can discriminate freely and openly

football is considered a religion in columbus so it's totally kosher.

I'll be a hundred percent blunt right now, Nik. If a baker wants to say no to baking a cake for a paying customer regardless of whether or not the customer in question is gay, straight, transgendered, or purple with pink polka-dots, then the reason has to be one that doesn't bring religion into the mix. Such as a baker not wanting to bake a cake in the shape of a pair of *** for a stag party because he or she doesn't want to fly against decency laws, or the customer in question is drunk and belligerent.
However, once a certain idiot baker starts down the sanctimonious "my religion says..." path while refusing a paying customer, then it becomes a question of violating the Fourteenth Amendment, AKA "The civil rights laws". Literally, it amounts to trying to pull a Jim Crow on a paying customer.

so we can discriminate aginst people.. just as long as we aren't honest about it?

let me go write that down
