I bet you guys just can't help yourselves.

Anyway - 

Here is a firm "No Confidence" vote for De Blasio.

I have no idea what this blocked poster is on about. But I can read the title due to the woefully insufficient blocking this site provides and clearly he does not want to talk about something but none the less feels the need to put that something's name in the title of the thread. Could it possibly be another troll of some sort?

OK, let's discuss tax avoidance.

Lets discuss how those who profess to love America and be "centrists". Refuse to hold to account those who lie, cheat on their taxes and use their elected positions to refuse judicial orders.

Let's just talk about Bible verses; something about not complaining about the speck in someone else's eye before doing something about the log in their own. It's always easy to find something to complain about in the guy you don't support, something awful they did. But if your guy does something parallel (it's never identical), there's a reason why it just had to go that way...

Can we throw in a discussion about the ethics and morality of tear gassing people in order to have your photo taken holding that Bible?

Well, how about those 'Commandment' thingies?

Something about not committing adultery.
Something about not bearing false witness (lying).

Something about not stealing.

Something about honoring thy father & mother (I don't think stealing from them is 'honoring' them)
Something about not coveting. 

The only one of the 'non-God' commandments that's left is the one about not murdering. And Trump has claimed he could get away with it.

"You're taking that out of context!"

I always get a kick out of people who use the Bible as a hammer to make their point.  Any part of the Bible they agree with they are fine with; any part of the Bible they disagree with, they tell you you're taking it out of context because you're just not blessed enough to see that the real meaning is the opposite of what the words say.
