Ok so I'm asking from Australia.
From here this seems bigger than Watergate, I mean these cases of electoral fraud are tried & absolutely proven.
So if this were a Republican plot would your press not use this as leverage to force someone out of office through a constant media assault but because its the Democrats it will be basically ignored?
Am I reading this right?

This is a very good point.

Especially learning how to discern what is and what is not important to the instructor, since it is most often the former that will appear on the exams.

I got mostly A's in HS because I was able to assimilate ALL the material presented by the teacher. But when I got to college I strained just to get C's and D's, eventually dropping out because the amount of material was far too large to assimilate causing me to be unprepared for some of the exam questions needed to earn a high grade.

I'm old enough to remember being vexed by the fact that they put their women in uniform and even subjected them to combat back in the day, but being surrounded by enemies they needed all the "manpower" they could muster just to survive.

Personally I think there is too many loopholes in today's so called justice system. Justice ceased to exist when we became " too dignified " and stopped hanging people in the town square for all to see what their future would hold should they choose that path in life. I can only imagine if I were to see my brother hung dead for certain crimes I would most definitely desire a different outcome for myself. Just thinking out loud but I would shape up pretty swift like u know!! We spend too many tax dollars for room and board of those who threaten society if not behind bars but they would not be a threat under six feet of dirt either.

For a minute, I thought Philip Howard (very well know to all, I think) had died! Good to know he's still kicking.
Now, who is this guy? I've never heard anything about him. What college did he play football for? Or was he a tennis player at Wimbledon? Or won a few Master Tournaments knocking the little white ball into the holes?
Maybe I'm a little dense, OK, but I don't get it--why is this guy worth any mention at all?
But I like the input on loud worship. Too bad electric speakers and amplifiers had not been invented in the Old Testament.

Actually I had "warned" some fellow students privately not to say certain words I heard for the first time uttered the previous night by my older sister following a heated argument she had with our parents.

Two of the students immediately tattled on me and suddenly I was in SERIOUS trouble. I had to go to the principal's office and my parents were notified.

Years later I noticed that some of the students who turned me in were themselves now swearing quite regularly. I thought it a bit pathetic/ironic, but then again I thought that maybe I helped to initially corrupt them the same way my sister did to me.

Which demonstrates what the male politicians have become. Weak whimps and morally Liberal.

Even as a kid growing up in the early 1970s I couldn't help but wonder who was going to "raise the kids" and "keep the home" with most if not all of my female classmates talking about pursuing a full-time career.

Knowing that any sign of disagreement with or disparagement of these new feminist aspirations would bring wrath down on me and my fellow male students, we kept quiet, even trying to approve. Sadly, the girls' eyes were so full of stars at the prospect of being more like men that they ended up being sucked into this new mindset with no restraint either. Parents at the time were complicit, believing that "newer is always better".

Discovery/History/NatGeo produced a lot of secular humanistic darwinian evolution global warming garbage. I love "How its Made" so we just buy them or watch free. Now we have a subscription to puritanpicks or just watch DVDs. Even have to skip the previews on DVDs these days. We usually watch old movies when they had standards and when G/PG really meant it. Rarely go to the movies.

Jesus came not to marry a physical wife and have physical descendants, but to die as a sacrifice to establish an eternal bride, composed of spiritual children/believers.

Some of our most recent and most satisfied members were initially warned to not visit our church (perhaps because we were too "conservative", "legalistic", "old-fashioned", etc.). Thankfully, just out of curiosity to see for themselves what was so "wrong" with our church, they visited us anyway, and ended up learning that we were actually one of the more Biblical and faithful churches in the area.
