Re: “HR 1 Is Voter Suppression”
“So the Democrat Party created, joined, and supported the KKK. Then it sponsored Jim Crow laws. It employed these tactics to prevent legitimate votes from citizens it deemed unworthy of those rights. Because the GOP outlawed the KKK and overturned Jim Crow laws, the Democrat Party failed in its vote-suppression attempts. So it changed tactics. Now the Democrat Party seeks to disenfranchise legitimate voters and dilute election purity by flooding elections with illegitimate votes. Our citizens must awaken from the fantasies promulgated by sound bites, indoctrination, and brainwashing. The fascist Democrat Party has NO interest in preserving the Constitution except to destroy it.” —Missouri
Re: “Doesn’t Biden Want Economic Recovery?”
“Interesting commentary. Biden doesn’t want a flourishing economy. It makes people happy and optimistic, anathema to the Democrat mantra. They are the party of doom, gloom, and telling everybody how they are victims of anything they can preface with the word ‘big.’ Their leaders are skilled snake-oil salesmen. In total control they can posture and lie with impunity, and, of course, bash Trump and throw around the race card in the most remarkable ways!” —Ohio
Re: “In Brief: The Trouble With American Infrastructure”
“Another factor that affects the overall road maintenance budget is a transportation bill provision enacted in the late 1970s that prohibits state and local jurisdictions from requiring warranties of contractors. There are no consequences for the contractor if the seam between strips of asphalt is poorly sealed and it breaks out in potholes several years later. By contrast, Norway and Sweden have a minimum warranty requirement of three years; their roads last much longer than those in the northern United States. Canada requires contractors to maintain toll-free numbers for reporting problems with the roads they built, and to post signs by the road publicizing those numbers.” —Minnesota
Re: “Hunter Biden and Our Two-Tiered Justice System”
“This is proof that the ‘expanded background check’ the anti-gun Democrats want is a farce! It is a farce because when it has to be employed against a powerful Democrat, it gets ignored and/or covered up. Hunter Biden should be arrested on illegal gun possession charges, and the Secret Service agents who attempted to confiscate the records need to be fired for tampering with evidence and sent to prison. There is ONE standard for the law in this country, and the fact that a Biden gets to skate because of his last name is exactly why this country is in the mess it is.” —Connecticut
Re: “American Church Membership Drops Below 50%”
“That’s becoming quite apparent from the numerous examples of prominent people displaying abysmal ignorance of Christianity, the Scripture, and, of course, God Himself, and nobody calls them on it. Those of us who profess to be Christians should take this as a call to action. We must study God’s word and be prepared. ‘Sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.’ (I Peter 3:15-16). Are we surrounded by the lost? Yes. In the words of USMC General Chesty Puller, ‘They can’t get away from us now.’” —Minnesota
