Foolishness Proverbs 15:14

For Draft Dodger in Chief, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Mike Pence and all the others who are fooling themselves into thinking that they are doing "great and marvelous" things for our country......

Proverbs 15:14 King James Version (KJV)

¹⁴ The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.

Have you no sense of decency?

During the McCarthy "communism" hearings in 1950's, Joseph Nye Welch asked Senator Joseph McCarthy....
  
   "Have you no sense of decency, sir?"  

All these years later, we have a someone in government who needs to be asked that same question....   

I just read this tidbit this morning on CNN  (2-15-20)

(CNN)Michael Bloomberg is spending unprecedented gobs of his own many billions of dollars on his late entrance into the Democratic presidential primary. What's he getting for all that coin? How much can he spend under the law? And is this, as some liberals claim, a billionaire buying an American election?

On the other side, President Donald Trump is going to be hosting a fundraiser this weekend with the Republican National Committee near his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida with an entrance fee of more than half a million dollars per couple. 

I can take Bloomberg spending his own money ---- he earned it....   What I can't take is that there are idiots who will give DDIC $500,000 per couple to attend this event!

The piece on CNN is very informative and thoughtfully written, take a moment and read it.  

Bloomberg is spending his billions. Trump's hosting a pricey 2020 fundraiser. But is it legal?

Proverbs 22:1

Perhaps, just perhaps, the GOP "trumpkins" might take a moment and consider this.......

Proverbs 22:1 King James Version (KJV)

22 A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.

The DEATH of the GOP's dignity

Thanks, once again, Matt for a wonderful statement regarding the demise of the GOP and their moral standards!

Trump and His loyal supporters who believe in Truth........

Trump and his loyal supporters (particularly those who consider themselves Followers of Christ) ought to consider these words very carefully

Proverbs 12:17-22 King James Version (KJV)

¹⁷ He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

¹⁸ There is that speaketh like the piercings of a sword: but the tongue of the wise is health.

¹⁹ The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.

²⁰ Deceit is in the heart of them that imagine evil: but to the counsellors of peace is joy.

²¹ There shall no evil happen to the just: but the wicked shall be filled with mischief.

²² Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight.

JIRGA, a movie

Jirga, a movie.

Definition   jir·ga

/ˈjərɡə/

noun

noun: jirga; plural noun: jirgas; noun: loya jirga; plural noun: loya jirgas

1. (in Afghanistan) a tribal council. A grand tribal council ( loya jirga ) has a legislative function in the country

This film is a very interesting, a unique view into what happens when an Australian soldier returns to Afghanistan for redemption for his part in the war.

Very little in dialogue, so one needs to just "follow" along on the journey.

The landscape is desolate, there are some areas that are beautiful (the lake scene being the only outstanding color).

According to the jacket cover on the DVD, and I quote

" Director Benjamin Gilmour and star Sam Smith filmed JIRGA under dangerous conditions close to Taliban and ISIS-controlled areas in Afghanistan, and worked with a cast of incredibly natural non-actors, including some who were former Taliban or Mujahedeen members themselves."

It is a very moving story. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
