LOL!!! This is why the Republicans are going to lose come election time. They get all worked up in a hizzy and go shooting all their ammo off in the wrong directions before the fighting has even started.

I watched it and he scored points. He most certainly understood getting out front on a message then getting hammered for it.

Better Trump than any politically correct politician with absolutely no soul.

I’m more concerned about Boehner. He may be costing us seats in November.

After two years in the job, the only things we know for sure about Obama is that he’s a moron, probably a Muslim, and definitely a Marxist.

RIGHT! Lets all throw away our conservative principles, in some cases a lifetime in support of conservatism, and work to elect a liberal who is closer to the ideology of current occupant of the WH then he will ever be to Reagan.

Lets all join the Trump crusade.

LOL You guys are plain nuts!

Wait! We already have a knowitall in the White House.

Donald Trump is one of those the Obama contends has made too much money. I believe that Trump will prove Obama wrong, but I don't see Trump as the GOP choice.

DONALD TRUMP ON THE ISSUES:

The Real Donald Trump

Iraq, currently occupied by US forces, has $15 trillion in oil reserves, second behind only Saudi Arabia, said Trump.

If the US were to get its hands on some of that oil, it could make money and pay back its allies like the UK for their involvement in the Iraqi invasion and occupation, he said.

Trump mentioned that the US financial cost of invading and occupying Iraq totals $1.5 trillion.

To justify taking Iraqi oil, Trump said if the US were to simply leave Iraq, Iran will invade and take over the country. Letting the oil fall to Iran would be a bad idea, according to Trump.

If the US takes control of Iraqi oil, Trump said he would give some of the oil revenues to Iraq and some of it to the US and its allies.

On Libya, Trump said the US has already spent billions of dollars on the civil war there. However, the US isn’t likely to see a drop of oil from the efforts.

Below are other positions of Trump, stated in previous interviews:

Foreign Policy

- China: Threaten them with a 25 percent import tariff if they refuse to appreciate the yuan faster. The mere threat of a tariff would induce the China to revalue the yuan.

- OPEC: The US economy can’t handle oil prices at $100 per barrel. Make OPEC lower their prices. When pressed for specifics, he didn’t give any details except that if the message is delivered the right way (by him), OPEC would listen. He also said the US protects Saudi Arabia with their soldiers, but the latter doesn’t pay anything for that protection.

- Pakistan: They know where Osama Bin Laden is. Cut off all financial aid to Pakistan until they hand him over.

Wall Street

-No additional regulations. Otherwise, Wall Street wouldn’t be able to compete with London, Zurich, and Hong Kong.

Defense Spending

-Trump implied he’ll increase defense spending, build better weapons, and have better intelligence so that the US military can achieve its goals with fewer human casualties.

Immigration

- The US border with Mexico is a joke. It should be militarized so that no illegal immigrants can come in. Moreover, doing so would stop the burgeoning US-Mexico trade in illegal drugs.

- For illegal aliens already in the US, decide on a case-by-case basis who can stay and who should be deported or jailed. It’s a lengthy process, but Trumps believes this is the best option.

Social Issues

- Pro-life and anti-gay marriage. However, America has bigger problems than these two issues, which shouldn’t be the focus of presidential elections.

Taxes

-Simplify the tax code and make it fairer. When pressed for specifics, Trump didn’t give any details.

OK, ya’ll - send those thrills right back down your legs! Did you even listen to the actual words he was saying or were you so dazzled by his bravado that you forgot to actually listen?

First, he said he’s not going to touch Medicare.

Then he said this:

“We go to Iraq. We spend $1.5 trillion. Our senior citizens are dying all over the place. They don’t have any money.”

Straight out of the DNC play book. I think this reveals a whole lot about his his political philosophy.

When asked what it meant to be a conservative, he basically said he’s very, very, very conservative and changed the subject. When asked about his political contributions to liberals, he said it was because he lives in Demo-land - What? Is he supposed to give money to some Republican who’s going to get 1% of the vote? He went on to say that Chuck Schumer is is good friend, demonstrating that he can work with and negotiate with anyone.

As Mark Levin said tonight, “I don’t have time for this crap shoot.”

I absolutely despise Romney. If that's all we got then we really are up the creek.

Trust not in princes. They are but mortal. Any candidate for public office who does not understand the sublime duty of all people to protect human life at all stages should stand on the sidelines. Doesn’t matter how rich or how poor that candidate might be.
