@LowerLeavell Interesting that you read the Book of Mormon as diminishing Jesus. I see the opposite (though I don't like those olive bits either). Thanks for the respect. It's mutual. Best to you.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@LowerLeavell Wow. That seems like a kid picking through a terrific pizza, pulling out the little olive bits and then throwing the pizza away because olives. 🙂 I hope you'll try it again and look for the doctrine of Christ that's on almost every page.

@SenJohnCurtis @DeptofWar Oh, great. Now the War Department is saying none of them are Christians. 😀

@TheJTShow2024 @typer_of_things @donMiguelSLC @gopTODD @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP No it's not a dodge of the original question, which was about favoritism, not legality.

I still doubt the practice is illegal, since it's been done forever. I'm not qualified to rule on that. If it's illegal, it should stop.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@TheJTShow2024 @typer_of_things @donMiguelSLC @gopTODD @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP The point of the OP is that the party is showing favoritism. That's why he mentioned there are two candidates in the primary. Fact is, the party is not showing favoritism.

If the question is now shifting to legality, I'll leave that to the attorneys.

@TheJTShow2024 @typer_of_things @donMiguelSLC @gopTODD @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP I answered it. Candidates using the party's mailing discount is right and it's very ordinary, not news and definitely not some kind of scandal. Both candidates can use it if they want.

@typer_of_things @donMiguelSLC @gopTODD @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP Michael and I have good personal history in the real world. My comments here were accurate regarding political parties (maybe not so for political committees) and were not personal insults, or at least not intended to be. I don't mind being corrected without the slams.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@donMiguelSLC @gopTODD @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP Michael, apparently you've written off the personal good will we had. That's sad. I hope it's temporary.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@gopTODD @donMiguelSLC @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP It's usually the last gasp of a losing candidate.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@gopTODD @donMiguelSLC @phil_lyman @CelesteMaloyUT @UtahGOP It's really disappointing that this totally fake issue pops up every election.

Both candidates can use the party's discount postage service. Their campaigns reimburse the party for it. Phil knows this and has used it in the past.

@sorealfoods Oh, look. Somebody else is cooking eggs.

Make it stop

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

Please - no more videos showing a thousand ways to cook the same omelet on a grill.

One of the greatest speeches of the late 20th century, given on the 40th anniversary of one of the most spectacular days in human history.

@BasedMikeLee We don’t need the explainer. Christ is right there in the name. Don’t change it.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@avidseries @BasedMikeLee You left out the air quotes.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@SenJohnCurtis Leave it. Those others churches need an asterisk to show them as Christian. Ours doesn’t. It’s obvious.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@Timcast No. Men should still be allowed to vote.

[Clair Ellis @cellisut]

@danmccay I was on the Republican State Central Committee throughout that time. That's a really good and honest summary of the events. Thanks.

@charlesmurray Critics think it could only be miraculous, and thus impossible, for someone to predict the horrific outcome of a city revolting against Rome as if that exact outcome had never happened before 70 CE.
