Well, that’s not been my experience. I see it on a daily basis. Lay people. Volunteers. People in the streets. They’re doing what the Gospel commands us to do.

My mind just flashed on Jimmy Carter (a particular hero of mine), as a 91 year old man with cancer out building houses with Habitat for Humanity. For the less fortunate. Because his faith calls him to do this work. That’s the kind of Christian liberal I want to emulate.

Jimmy Carter has yet to meet a dictator he did not cozy up to and support. His track record on human rights is atrocious.

Sorry, but I was referring to people who actually DO this work. Were you thinking of someone else?

Of course anecdotal evidence proves nothing but i am involved in a ministry that helps homeless alcoholics. We have people from every end of the political spectrum helping out but our funding comes almost exclusively from conservatives,
 
A little premature perhaps.

A Worry if Hillary Clinton Wins: What to Do With Bill
If Hillary Clinton wins the presidency, Bill Clinton will not become a regular at cabinet meetings, his wife’s advisers say. He will not be invited into the Situation Room. He will step away from his family’s foundation work and may not even have an office in the West Wing, given the undesirable optics of a former president and husband looking over the shoulder of the first female commander in chief.
But the steps Clinton aides are planning to shape his new life do little to address a potentially thornier problem: Historically, when Mr. Clinton does not have a job to do, he gets into trouble.

I think it is always good to hear both sides of the story and to understand why people believe and act the way they do. We are a country of many peoples and we have to live with each other. **If we can’t understand differing belief systems **(religiously as well as socially), then we are poorer for it.

And that’s the problem with the HHS mandate and the Obama administration. They have no tolerance for people who disagree with them on abortion and birth control. The ACLU is suing to force Catholic hospitals to perform abortions.

Hillary said “… deep-seated cultural codes, religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed. "

I find this statement very troubling.

I remember that Pres. Reagan and House Speaker Tip O’Neill used to fight ferociously on the job but they were good golf buddies after working hours.

You sure about the golfing buddies thing?

As far as I can find out, Reagan rarely played golf.

9 Ronald Reagan Didn’t play often or well (best was low 90s).

Reagan DID enjoy riding horses, but that might have been a carryover from his first military stint … when we was in the horse cavalry prior to WW2.

Doubt that O’Neill cared much about horses.

Will CNN or MSNBC investigate or question Mrs. Clinton about this?
Hillary Clinton is 0-for-2016, having failed to hold any full press conferences this year — fueling the perception that she is the most guarded major candidate in recent political history, in stark contrast with presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Click to expand...
Mr. Trump has held at least four full, formal press conferences this year, including one Tuesday, and has fielded questions at length from the flock of reporters covering his campaign on numerous occasions.

Mrs. Clinton took questions from the press traveling with her campaign once, in Minnesota in March, but hasn’t held an organized press conference in six months.

Hillary Clinton hasn’t held a press conference for seven months (i.e., all of 2016; I had to learn about that . . . on the Canadian News last evening :o ).
 
Black Activists Oppose Clinton, Police in Philadelphia DNC March
PHILADELPHIA – Several hundred people marched for hours on Tuesday to oppose police killings of black people, as well as Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Code: 
                  "Don't vote for Hillary, she's killing black people!"  participants of the Black DNC Resistance March chanted as they reached  their destination, Philadelphia's City Hall, about four miles north of  the main [Democratic National Convention](http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2016-07-26/democratic-national-convention-in-philadelphia-day-2-7-26-16?int=a14709) venue.
     
                  The apparently figurative language of that increasingly loud chant was not fully explained. 
     
                  Other chants featured more vulgarity: "Move b--ch, get  out the way!" the group demanded earlier, using the lyrics of a popular  song by rapper Ludacris.

California governor: Clinton should be worried

PHILADELPHIA — California Gov. Jerry Brown (D) says the presidential election is looking “very uncertain,” and Hillary Clinton should be worried.

Brown, who arrived in Philadelphia on Tuesday, said recent polls show the race between Clinton and Donald Trump, the GOP presidential nominee, is “very tight, very tight.

I don’t see how anyone can have any respect for the democrat party after this convention.

They actually had the mother of a thug who attacked a policeman and tried to take his gun and shoot him on stage. What was glaringly missing during this spectacle was any respect or mention of the policemen who were assassinated protecting protesters who were demonizing police.

Also no mention that shooting deaths of police officers are up 78%

No. Imagine you are a cop. What are you to think about Hillary being your President?

Or you’re the wife or child of a cop. Or anybody, black or white, who sees urban crime as one of the biggest threats to you. Will it really feel like she’s your President?

It will feel like it’s felt to many Americans having Obama as President. He doesn’t act like he’s everybody’s President. Whether or not he loves America, he really doesn’t like a lot of Americans.

And she, who announced that the enemies she’s most proud of making were Republicans, isn’t likely to behave as America’s President any more than the current one has.
