    Great!

    It's a matter of timing.

    President Biden is right twice a day.

    Some say that I am prone to exaggeration.
    You can have a good time with that at least twice.

    Yea, right, In the long run It’ll probably eventually throw business to the U.S. military industrial complex that Eisenhower so passionately warned us about. The war industry is alive and well and has its claws in Democrats and Republicans alike.

    There is an interesting argument here.

    Biden officially condemning genocide does not count because he does not condemn abortion.

    Yet the inverse and just as "logical" argument is opposing abortion does not count if the genocide was not officially condemned.

    Funny. People have "pet" sins, I guess.

    There seems to be a fundamental difference between a genocide that happened a century ago (and is too late to change the facts) and a currently ongoing genocide. That difference seems to have gotten lost in your “arguments”.

    I understand. Past abortions are meaningless. But I disagree. No administration can change past atrocities. But policies can only changed based on past atrocities.

    Promoting abortion or being against it is only a "pet sin" for people whose primary concern is political.

    actually, more to the point, it is because BIDEN did something good, where TRUMP failed, that those who still think that DT "won" in November, will continue to bang their drums for this LOSER!

    Don't be silly, one can be critical of Biden without being a fan of Trump. Replacing a "narcissist" with a "tool" isn't much of a win for We the People. In this case Joe condemned an old genocide while restoring funding to a modern genocide. The former deserves credit, but the latter dampens any real enthusiasm. I would have preferred he ignore an old genocide and fight the ongoing genocide (if he could not condemn both).

    That has NOTHING to do with Donald Trump and everything to do with Christianity.

    Matthew 25:37-40 [NKJV]
    "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed [You], or thirsty and give [You] drink? 'When did we see You a stranger and take [You] in, or naked and clothe [You]? 'Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?'
    "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did [it] to one of the least of these My brethren, you did [it] to Me.'​

    What about these "christians" who take part in this "modern genocide"?

    Leviticus 20:2-5 [NKJV]
    "Again, you shall say to the children of Israel: 'Whoever of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who dwell in Israel, who gives [any] of his descendants to Molech, he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones. 'I will set My face against that man, and will cut him off from his people, because he has given [some] of his descendants to Molech, to defile My sanctuary and profane My holy name. 'And if the people of the land should in any way hide their eyes from the man, when he gives [some] of his descendants to Molech, and they do not kill him, 'then I will set My face against that man and against his family; and I will cut him off from his people, and all who prostitute themselves with him to commit harlotry with Molech.

    Matthew 15:8-9 [NKJV]
    'These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with [their] lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching [as] doctrines the commandments of men.' "

    1 John 1:8-10 [NKJV]
    If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.​

    We have found a new idol to sacrifice our children to, but God has not changed his position on the subject.

    We do try. :Wink Are you saying you don't know this expression, or that you can't see how it applies to Biden?

    If the latter, well, it’s just an expression. He may be right twice a day, but in most cases it will be something like “I said that wrong, didn’t I?” He may do this more than twice a day. :Wink
