What sorrow for those who d**g their sins behind them
with ropes made of lies,
who d**g wickedness behind them like a cart!
19
They even mock God and say,
“Hurry up and do something!
We want to see what you can do.
Let the Holy One of Israel carry out his plan,
for we want to know what it is.”
20
What sorrow for those who say
that evil is good and good is evil,
that dark is light and light is dark,
that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.
21
What sorrow for those who are wise in their own eyes
and think themselves so clever.

What sorrow for those who are heroes at drinking wine
and boast about all the alcohol they can hold.

They take bribes to let the wicked go free,

The answer, Emily, I fear is that they don't mention them or refer to them. They aren't looking for good things, only bad, even if they have to find some insignificant thing and blow it all out of proportion by lying about it. The news media will not refer to anything about Trump which might t***slate into a positive thing. They are not news media any longer. They are purveyors of TDS.

Wow, Bob, your funny pic and highly researched response really sheds a lot of light on the situation. I am thinking about forwarding your well-thought-out comments to President Trump so he will be able to have some much needed clarification of how to handle policy decisions. I sure he will be grateful for your valuable input.
