    God uses the foolish things of this Earth to confound the wise, I'll let you chew on that for a while

    Already had breakfast, but confounding or not things have to be dealt with.

    See what happens when you don't show up.

    Yes, they do. Romans 2:14-15 (NLT) -- 14 Even Gentiles, who do not have God’s written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it. 15 They demonstrate that God’s law is written in their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right.
    Post 80. And the first person to quote from the Bible was (drum roll) Wondergirl! Can't escape it. You had some involvement in this hijacking yourself. Admit your wrong-doing!!

    Nope, you were the Pied Piper. You started it with Post 68. ("Quite a number of low income housing units filled with single parent families and an absence of fathers. Kind of a predictable outcome. It's the something the Gospel could fix if believed on.")

    There are many points of view Tom, you want to stick to the pure political, however there are lessons to be learned from a biblical perspective

    Strictly speaking, I did not mention the Bible in that post, but I am most happy to admit to leading the charge to discuss things Biblical. I hope that will characterize the rest of my existence on this earth.

    But being the first to QUOTE the Bible implicates you as well. Be careful. You could get the reputation of being an evangelical Christian if you are not careful.

    You have to admit the dufus and his lawyers have the House all tied in knots trying to interview witnesses and getting documents. More court cases coming.

    Oh, I've been an evangelical Lutheran all my life. It used to be a unique adjective describing Jesus' words in Matt. 28:19 -- until the fundies stole it so they'd look and sound better.

    I'm surprised to hear that. You don't seem to believe that accepting Christ as Lord and Savior will radically change and improve a person's life, or at least I never see you state that on this board.

    Yeah I get their game . Drag Hope Hicks up to the Hill for 8 hrs ,with all the costs going to the witness ;having to retain legal council etc. ,when there was absolutely nothing to gain from her testimony . Hicks had already endured hours of testimony before the House and Senate, and Mueller's investigators. They were even asking personal questions about her love life . If Trump did not supply the lawyers ,their fee would've come out of her pocket ,not out of that slob Nadler's.That pos repeatedly insulted her by calling her Ms Lewandowski(referring to rumors from the discredited book 'Fire and Fury ' by Michael Wolffe ,that she had an affair with Cory Lewandowski. ).When she finally called him out on the insult his snarky reply was the he was 'preoccupied ' . That is the kind version of the event . There is a possibility that the pompous, arrogant, and sanctimonious jerk Nadless is losing it and genuinely thought her name was Lewandowski .

    I haven't gotten my hands on the transcripts yet, or stocked up on eye glass cleaner but closed sessions don't have the same impact on the public as open hearings do so this round belongs to the dufus hands down and I suspect will lead to a court battle over "IMMUNITY", and executive privilege. Yeah, lawyers are expensive, even for the well heeled and more for civil and criminal attorneys. Probably why our jails are full of ordinary criminals.

    Costs money to OBJECT at the proper time, which they did extensively the other day. The gloves come off after the August recess I suspect.

    Does the fact that they broke laws have any bearing on them being in jail?

    That's a matter of debate since my premise was affording legal representation since most cannot. Hope Hicks can, and has a rich guy behind her and she isn't even being prosecuted for a crime, it was just a hearing. So you don't think there are two sets of criminal justice for the rich and poor?

    No, but I would agree that the rich have an advantage in being able to afford more capable lawyers. Best advice is to avoid breaking the law.

    The biggest problems I see with the criminal justice system are its use of a number of corrupt/inept people and an ocean of laws that most people have no hope of being familiar with.
