My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

Originally posted by oxmixmudd View PostNews is he has his limits. WP is reporting Trump requested he hold a news conference and declare Trump 'not guilty' of any crimes in Ukraine. He 'declined to acquiesce' to his request. Which is a tacit admission Trump at the very least 'might' have committed crimes in Ukraine.

Probably realizes, unlike Trump, that further exposing himself as a complete fraud as Atty Gen. is not a good move.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

You have to watch yourself, ox, whenever there are multiple possibilities, you invariably settle on the one that is the worst for Trump and then delude yourself into believing that your biased assumptions are necessarily true.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostTrump has never been charged with a crime. Therefore, he can not be exonerated by definition.

We could also reasonably conclude from Barr's denial of Trump's request that while he recognizes that the President is innocent, he's confident enough in the system that he doesn't feel the need to become personally involved.
Like I said, there are a number of explanations, but ox is so blinded by his hatred for Trump that he can only allow himself to see the one possibility that he desperately wants to be true. For my part, if it is proven beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump committed a serious enough crime to warrant removal from office then I will support it, but to date, there is zero evidence leading to that conclusion.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

That applies here in spades. So these continued rants on how bad I am or what motivates me to say what I say are nothing more than rank hypocrisy, not to mention just plain stupid.
You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Not only that, I've publicly explained my motives many times. The primary issue for me is Christians excusing and covering for what Trump does when what he does is clearly and simply wrong. That is what creates my interest in trying to sway opinion on this board. It is not 'hatred' of Trump.Last edited by oxmixmudd; 11-07-2019, 12:40 PM.My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
