    Your post is sort of rambling, not sure what you're trying to say. My only point was that US society has been in decline for a long time, and but one example of that is the government and medical industrial complex forcing people to take experimental and dangerous drugs.

    I did not take the shot, but I know many who took it ONLY because of social and governmental pressure, to keep a job in most cases, but also fear of a virus. Fear, ignorance and superstition drove them all.

    Has a society demanding this cruelty already fallen, or is it a slow process? To be clear, I pay monthly to view Playboy TV. Not for the porn, but just to view beautiful women without clothes.

    What the Grammys offered, sponsored by Pfizer, was porn in my book. Disgusting, unpleasant with no redeeming features.

    Shocker.... you didn't take it.... it's almost as if these things you keep talking about involving being forced to take it, and the fall of society are all just a creation of your own imagination... weird

    If Cruz said slavery is wrong, would you point out that he has no right to make moral statements or would you agree because slavery is in fact wrong?

    Whatever you think of Cruz, he is right about this.

    Is this an attempt at deflection? Cruz is a lap dog who hides behind his family, time proven BTW.

    No. I am just pointing out that facts are facts no matter who they come from.

    This is the same guy who fought to try to keep sex toys illegal. At least there's entrainment value in watching this pathetic twerp squirm and whine.

    Yet you simply are unable to despute all the facts in my post. I take it there was no real point to you quoting my post then other than it was accurate, Cruz is a coward.

    Cruz is not a moral person, he's a cowardly stooge. Can't say you don't know this, can you?

    You're comparing some weird performance where they are dressed to portray Satan and demons, dancing weirdly in cages with fire to a man singing a song about faith?

    This gets more and more bizarre the more you post.

    I think that beard Cruz sports in the picture in the cited article is pure evil.

    They're literally worshipping Jesus on stage at the Grammy Awards, and contrary to what you have speculated, no one was outraged by it, in fact the performance was celebrated. Anyone who would be outraged by that sort of thing should be laughed at. It would be equally as ridiculous as the people getting outraged by performers wearing devil costumes. Those people should be laughed at, because they are an absolute joke

    This message brought to you by the same people who thought "Bewitched" and
    Harry Potter, were the product of the Devil.

    *sigh*. Karens have taken over the Republican Party. Both parties, actually.

    This was a performance, by two artists: you think that, "shows the intent of (the entirety of) progressive left elites, and media?"

    :roflol::roflol::roflol:


    So, I suppose then, the fact that Senator Cruz says that he believes in a two-term limit, for Senators, but plans on running for a third term, for himself, must show that
    the whole of the Right wing of our political spectrum, is founded in innate hypocrisy--
    I mean, to be consistent with your own extrapolation.

    Yes, I'm sure Cruz is willing to stay in the Senate for as long as it takes, to convince his collegues, to put themselves out of work-- or to win the Republican Presidential nomination; whichever comes first.

    Actually, as mine is based on an actual Conservative politician's behavior, it should be an even
    more credible basis, for such a political judgement, as you are making.

    Nah there is no entertainment value in a half naked ugly fat dude pretending to be a woman with horns while squirming and whining. I can still remember a time when singers were thought of as cool. Now the cringe, conformity and banality is palpable. The most outrageous part of the performance was the utter lack of creativity or talent. If this is the "best" music on offer, it truly is the nadir of the West.

    I'm sorry, but this is hilarious. The general pearl clutching over the Halloween shop like devil horns is funny in of itself, but the description of that costume as him being "half naked" is a whole 'nother level of hilarity.

    Oh good heavens to betsy, his wrists are almost showing! lol
