OK, let’s take one:
Trump: “I support a woman’s right to choose, but I am uncomfortable with the procedures.”
Trump: “I believe it is a personal decision that should be left to the women and their doctors.”
Trump: “I’m totally pro-choice. I hate it and I hate saying it. And I’m almost ashamed to say that I’m pro-choice, but I am pro-choice because I think we have no choice.”
Please, explain how those are “absolutes.” Yes, he claims he has flip-flopped but I’ don’t buy bridges in his home town.

Does it hurt to not be able to actually rebut, but insist that you can?

Let"s start with marriages... care to refute that? 3-1. Need the public records posted? Praised deBlasio. Want the articles posted? Support for PBA? Supported Kelo? We can keep waiting for these rebuttals that you imagine that you have, but of course you don't.... but go on and pretend that you do. It's all you have. We understand.

Here’s another:
Trump: “We must have universal healthcare” “I’m a conservative on most issues but a liberal on this one.”
Absolutes? I read crystal clear liberalism.

"The fact that Trump's not your idea of a conservatism doesn't define him."

"As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty."

DUnald Tramp doesn't meet that clearly defined guideline on far too many points. What he does do is to bring in all those LIEberals the the DUmocrats purged when their move toward communist takeover of the party was completed.

Well, when I see all yeses in one column, and all noes in the other, I can be sure that the material is slanted...cherry-picked if you will. Nothing inherently wrong with that. I'm sure Trump, Jeb, etc. supporters do the same. But it's worth noting, because it makes that chart a campaign ad, and so not very valuable as a source of clean information.

Good point, but at the moment we are looking at ways to differentiate between Cruz and Trump... two very credible candidates with many great upsides, and one or three items to be concerned about. This chart helps in differentiating (although it gets a little petty at points).

My favorite point to hammer is that Trump is a great unknown quantity, and the amount of baseless faith in him by otherwise principled conservatives is very alarming.

What happened to your tagline?

Needs a little clean-up?

I read his remarks “there’s a better way”, I read “opening up competition between insurance companies across state borders”. I read good solid common sense and above all his words, “Throw out Obamacare.’

Now, just exactly what it is about these statements you don’t like?

You are misreading his statement about “universal healthcare.”

You prefer, “Don’t get things done?”
Can’t have it both ways.

Ted Cruz fits that mission statement to a T.

( and everyone on this site would have agreed with that statement up until the dear leader started attacking him )

No no, this term was coined this morning by another FReeper who I do not want to name and ping.

So, in honor of his creativity on the issue, I have put his newly minted term in my handle for one day.

I very much appreciate the tagline alert, though, and I will revert it tomorrow morning at around 11:00 am or so.

Is the establishment he is running against the same one Mitch McConnell, who he endorsed and supported in a primary attempting to replace him with a tea party candidate, belongs to?

Tough back amnesty?
Tax increases?
More crony spending?
Universal health care?
Assault weapons ban?

Those are all examples of “ things getting done”, and yes, I would prefer nothing “get done”

Re>Wait for the zombies to say Cruz is Canadian.

He was Canadian the day he was born. He was also an American citizen but not a natural born American citizen. Be careful what you wish for.

For Reump, you will need the time of day, too, to be sure.
