He said that because Bibi said it. Both are notorious liars. A real news organization would seek confirmation elsewhere.

If I didn't have family In Texas, I'd be in favor of moving the border wall to the north shore of the Red River.

"The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties. That often happens in war," Trump said. "But we're doing this not for now — we're doing this for the future. And it's a noble mission."

The gut punch is why 2 of the state's largest oil & gas companies are moving to Houston.

One reason is tax increases. The other is this.

I used to take a flight between Chicago and Amarillo that stopped in Wichita. The airline wouldn't serve liquor in Kansas airspace because Vern threatened to arrest the crew and impound the airplane.

There used to be an historical market in Parkville, Mo. that said it was once a hemp market. Around 1970 a farmer nearby in Kansas a farmer cut down marijuana plants and was fined for destroying wildlife cover. Times have changed.

Luke 22:20 New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition 20 And he did the same with the cup after supper, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.[a]

In my opinion, anyone claiming the Israel has the right to occupy lands in the Middle East because of the covenant with Abraham is denying Christ.

That covenant has been replaced with the New Covenant that Jesus gave us at the Last Supper.

A lot of Christians have been standing up for what Jesus said for a long time. The RC church is late to the party. The sector of media that Maddow is in just pays not attention to them. Perhaps she could check in with the Mainline Protestant denominations once in a while.

I've given up buying beef, even though I can afford it. It's just not worth the price. The good thing is that I'm eating food that is better for me. I've quit buying whole coffee beans, again because I refuse to pay the price for them.

This is the season of Lent. A time to reflect on our lives, confront our sins, and repent.

Will he at least acknowledges that Roman Catholic ant-abortion single issue voted contributed a lot not only to this but to all the harms that Republican legislators, both state and federal, have done?

I had one voter who used his sex offender ID to vote. It was a state issued photo ID, so it was acceptable. I did check with the election board and he still couldn't vote because he was on parole. People with a felony conviction can vote once their custodial sentence and parole are completed.

I'm an election worker too. I Oklahoma, a person with an ID like you describe would be allowed to fill out a provisional ballot. It would then be up to the county election board to decide whether on or not to count the vote.

We sang that hymn at our church service today too.

A Ukrainian drone recently took out a refinery inside Russia over 1,000 miles from the Ukrainian border. Russia is losing more soldiers than it can recruit. I'd want a deal too, if I were Putin. Zelensky has no need to make a deal.

Once again he embarrasses Oklahoma.

Yes, he was.

The problem with people like Thiel is that ripped everything between the Old Testament and The Revelation out of their Bibles.

Candidates and recognized political parties are entitled to have a watcher at each polling place. They can only be there before the polls open after the polls close to observe the polling device. They can see that they count is zero before voting starts and can see the vote totals afterwards.

Yes, sign up to be a poll worker. It's a long day, but usually pleasant. People are appreciative.

Oklahoma law requires that of the 3 poll workers, 1 poll worker be from the party with the most registered voters, 1 from the party with the 2nd most, the 3rd any party or independent.

I'm directly descended on both sides of my family from people who entered this country through Jamestown in the 1600s. Let's look at some Repubs whose ancestry doesn't go back 7 generations.

The proposed Federal limit of 50 milligrams per package of edibles is too low. It's not practical if you're taking 10 milligrams per day. One package won't last even a week.
