The Obama led Congress & Senate is a disgrace! DEMS and RINOs are a scourge on this once great nation. Its treason pure and simple. Vote them all out. The ineptitude that they cannot even cancel a 5 Billion dollar subsidy that nobody wants. Great example, Coburn! We got your back, and thanks for telling us what is going on in this not-so-transparent government. Shame on Pelosi, Reid and their ilk! Thank you Oklahoma for voting in Coburn. Now if can get the idiot fringe in CA, NV, NH, VT, et al to stop voting altogether!

Great article MIKE! You said it best. No comment from me, just dittos!!!!!!!!!

There is a cultural issue here as well. Muslims are taught to lie if they wish, and still get the 70 virgins. In that regard, newspapers, and every other news outlet, and service, needs to be leery of stories presented by Muslims. And any story presented by anyone that may ruin a person's career! Ali had probably been in talks and recruitment well before December. It may have been suggested to the family by the Democratic party that this was the time to pull this stunt. Nancy Pelosi and her back room deals. The Post is either naive at best, or paid off at worst!

Excellent point Terry! The USA could have a "state of the art" border protection system, if it wanted to. How laughable that they have used the excuse that it "Just isn't possible" to patrol the entire border! Really? Why is that? Because they haven't tried to cobble together a solution. Here's one: Offer a reward, to American engineers, m.i.t. students, military, or anyone who can put together an affordable and plausible system. It would be up and running yesterday!

Obama certainly targeted Trump verbally at the Correspondent's dinner, in a very mean spirited way. Especially since it was Obama who was witholding the birth certificate, which you consider baiting Trump. So when Trump goes after the bait, wham! He gets his head handed to him. Its a bloodless but brutal tactic nonetheless. Obama is capable of anything...cruel.

Good call Michelle. The problem is, there is only room for ONE OBAMA at the top of the heap. He really skewered Trump at the National Correspondence Dinner. OUCH! I mean it was funny, but in a really mean-spirited sort of way. Obama took shots at the GOP again for trying to lower the deficit, and again, I was reminded just how nasty Obama can be when "crossed." Obama is the poster boy for the "mean spirited" in American politics.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...Jeffrey, you make so much sense, blah, blah, irrelevant, blah, blah, blah, relevant, blah, blah, blah...gravity is so irrelevant, blah, blah, blah, blah, a day is not really 24 hours long, blah, blah, blah, blah, plants don't get married, why should people? Blah, blah, blah, where do babies come from? Blah, blah, blah, the stork of course, blah, blah, blah, blah...

Then why are we all still buying Middle Eastern oil? I find it hard to criticize others when we are all supporting the Middle East with our gas dollars...For once Arabs are paying Americans for something, their singing talent. I don't mind getting some of their money back into the American economy, or to deserving charities. More of that please...

That is a very interesting observation and one I am sure worth researching. Take Facebook for example, you can only have a page as a single user, so if you are married, you cannot share a page for the both of you. It is very limiting that way, yet the most popular venue today. Not only that, but you cannot list your spouses' name on your site, unless they already have a separate facebook page of their own. And it is an example of what you said, people have their own set of friends and are interacting with them without the input of their spouse. Definitely an example of social distraction and turning outward, very individually focused, not couple focused.

Thank you Ed, do you have that OT reference? This brings to mind the conversation that Jesus had on the road to Emmaus, Luke 24, where he told his two traveling companions all about the passages in the OT that were referring to him. Jesus cannot ultimately be preceded, although if you mean according to the written record of your red letter edition Bible, then this OT reference precedes the one in Luke 6. However, we are told that Jesus as the 2nd person of the trinity was involved in creating the universe John 1:3, Colossians 1:16, . Jesus exists from all eternity.
