There are many sleepless nights coming for some people who thought they had gotten away with it. Hm…
File this one under "not news"
Trump’s Threat to North Korea Was Improvised https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/09/us/politics/trump-north-korea.html
President GoodBrain!!!
Dio, to continue our discussion of Pharisees under this thread, hyam maccoby, Revolution in Judaea, argues that they were indeed masters at splitting hairs, but only because they wanted to humanize a law that dealt out death for so many offenses, including homosexuality. Modern defense lawyers do the same in capital cases.
Further evidence that Jesus the rabbi was himself a pharisee is in the famous story of the woman who was to be stoned to death for adultery. Jesus did not challenge the law. He merely insisted that only someone without sin himself was worthy of casting the first stone.
Pharisitical hairsplitting of the first order. And it saved a life.
Great reading, Maccoby.
Here's a nice bit of news.
All politics is local. The key will always be good candidates vs. relying on coat tails.
Don't tell Carnholio. He thinks Trumpism is a winning strategy.
