Thanks! I couldn’t remember where I heard it. I think it’s a riff on CS Lewis - “Screwtaoe Letters” maybe?

I never heard of this book but found out a little tidbit while researching it:

 

The Screwtape Letters was known to be the favorite book of Andrew Cunanan.

If you are willing to give it a try, it's a fun little story.

Why am I not surprised? I read it when I was about 18 or so. I was already firmly out of Christianity by then but I loved it anyhow. It’s still a favorite of mine.

7 Trump Allies Subpoenaed in Georgia Criminal Investigation https://nyti.ms/3NF0S96

Quote

Seven advisers and allies of Donald J. Trump, including Rudolph W. Giuliani and Senator Lindsey Graham, were subpoenaed on Tuesday in the ongoing criminal investigation in Georgia of election interference by Mr. Trump and his associates. The move was the latest sign that the inquiry has entangled a number of prominent members of Mr. Trump’s orbit, and may cloud the future for the former president.

The subpoenas underscore the breadth of the investigation by Fani T. Willis, the district attorney of Fulton County, which encompasses most of Atlanta. She is weighing a range of charges, according to legal filings, including racketeering and conspiracy, and her inquiry has encompassed witnesses from beyond the state. The latest round of subpoenas was reported earlier by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

I hope it clouds the future for Mr Graham too.

Most conservatives view Graham as RINO so getting rid of him is something all conservatives would want, so he can be replaced with a real conservative.

Lindsey Graham is a big supporter of amnesty.    That’s why he’s known as Lindsey Gramnesty.

Obviously!  A trueconservative is someone to the right of Lindsey Graham:)  HA-HA.  The true conservatives have largely left the Republican party already.

The principled conservatives have largely left the party.

Amnesty is a might big word.  Specifically, what are you speaking about?

Do your homework.   No conservative likes  Lindsey.

Let me ask you a homework question. When you write papers, how do you back up your arguments?

Just wondering because you make the above generalization that “[n]o conservative likes Lindsey” and then you cite someone’s opinion that doesn’t even mention Graham. 

I know this is the off-topic area of an, but as a nurse, you should know how citations work. I mean, you are a nurse, correct?
