So say all the hypocrites. I was not in the least offended.... BECAUSE I hear worse every single day everywhere I go. Housewives, kids, liberals, rednecks, gas station attendants......
Typical libs living in La La Land pretending like they are cleaner rats than others that walk this planet.

We don't tell our children fairy tales so that they will know that monsters exist.
They already know monsters exist.

I was referring to big business, conglomerates, corporations, banks etc, not small businesses. Government/big business are practically one and the same although I should have clarified that. Obviously that doesn't apply to small businesses as they aren't the ones with the power and suffer through all sorts of regulations imposed by government although that's often dictated by economic climate as much as anything. I'm sorry for your wife's business as I've seen the impact on several over here over the years but whatever administration was in power it would have been the same.
What exact regulations are you referring to here? Please expound or link.What are business subsidies other than the government picking the winners and losers in business by whom they subsidize and whom they refuse to subsidize? In the US Obama got through legislation and regulations that say if the government comes in and takes your business over the business owner cannot speak to it publicly without getting tossed in jail. Socialism? You bet it is.
It depends on what you mean by 'openly taught'. As far as I'm aware, schools aren't supposed to be proselytizing on any faith although teaching that there's more than one is simply fact. The notion that Christianity is being 'suppressed' only holds if you think it's the only religion that should be mentioned in education. Else, no.Government control of education? You bet it's straight out of socialism. Both the US and Britain tell the school systems what they can and cannot teach. They exercise considerable control over ideologies taught. In the US the government says almost any expression of Christian thought by students and teachers is banned, yet they allow Islam to be openly taught. I know. I have grandkids being taught Islam in the public school the attend, while all references to Christianity are suppressed. Britain does the same thing according to all the headlines I've seen.
Funny, certain far right zealots on here want to impose their particular brand of 'righteous regulation' as part of civic government to the point of executing homosexuals and adulterers along with other laws that impose on people's freedoms. Would you call them socialists too? Don't get me wrong, I'm fed up with plenty of government regulations that impact on life but it's not like we live in a totalitarian state that would make you disappear just for a dissenting voice either.All central planning, meaning government control of anything, is straight out of socialism, and you know it. If you don't, then you are woefully ignorant of what socialism really is and how it is applied in real life. And the more central planning we see, the fewer freedoms we have, and the more control over every aspect of our lives the government exercises. Regulation is the enemy of the people, not a friend of theirs. And regulation of everything is the ultimate goal of socialism.
Well this is fun isn't it?
It's not the word so much that offends, heard every cuss word in the book. It's just yet another example of a highly unprofessional president 'at work'. To put it in context, it's generally policy not to use 'foul language' in the workplace and certainly not if clients or visitors are about. You can get fired for it.

Everyone who has not believed the Gospel of grace is not saved, no matter what else they believe or do.
By that measure, how many professing Christians are on their way to the Lake of Fire?

I'd still like to hear audio of Trump actually saying it, or the name of the person reporting it, so his/her story can be verified against others in attendance. I really don't think that's asking a lot.

Nunes was cleared and the Mueller investigation is falling apart, imploding and eating itself. All they can do is point to Trump's hair and his dirty mouth.

What makes you think that Presidents record conversations in the Oval Office - given that it was the audio tapes that put the "nails" in Nixon's "coffin" during the Watergate Hearings?
Of the 4 Senators in the Oval Office, 1 reported Trump's comments, 1 Republican says he dealt with the President in private and 2 Republicans say they can't recall the comment - but failed to assert that Trump was misquoted!
When asked to confirm the comment Thursday night, the White House dodged the question, but never issued an outright denial!

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if this is how it turns out. Remember that the Repukelicans spent $100 million investigating Clinton's many scandals, and all they managed to come up with was a semen-stained dress, while people lower on the totem pole took the fall for Billery. The Repukelicans and the Demonrats are a duopoly. They may talk up a good game, but ultimately, one hand washes the other.
