The gubbermint has no bizness propping up organizations that can’t survive on their own.

Nor does the governmment have any "bizness propping up organizations" that simply launder taxpayer money on its way to the Democrat party.

It's not allegiance to party that's worry me, FRiend. It's allegiance to political principle. Cruz has a defined, clearly stated principle in how he thinks politically.

Trump, like Schwarzenegger, has zero political principle. However, like Arnold, he is, I believe, a patriot, he is sincere, and he has a gifted knack as entertainer/showman to reflect to people what rouses them emotionally -- politically incorrect brassiness that sounds conservative on the surface and which is gratifies folks angry with the status quo; Trump looks to them like he's "taking it to them" for the little guy.

Because Trump has no essential political compass, it's easy for people to project their own political assumptions and principles on Trump, like I know I did on Schwarzenegger, for whom I voted with enthusiasm, naïve in retrospect.

It's kinda hard to project political assumptions on a guy like Cruz, whose standards are the constitution, limited government, Christian conservatism. Just knowing that a guy embraces limited government principle, means you know where he stands on a whole slew of issues.

Trump has zero political principle, so where he stands on any given issue is a crap shoot.

Vote for him at your own risk, and see my tagline. :^)

“But certainly the abortion aspect of it should not be funded by government, absolutely.”

"Trump suggests he’s open to keeping taxpayer funding for Planned Parenthood"

Donald's agenda doesnt quite live up to his hype does it...

"Donald is just alright with me, Donald is just alright, oh yeah

Donald is just alright with me, Donald is just alright

I don't care what they may know

I don't care where they may go

I don't care what they may know"

as sung by the Meshuge Brothers

Would it be terribly un-Christian of me to suggest a few pin placements?

If Trump continues making pro-abortion statements,


What pro-abortion statement?

Trump is blowing it.

Instead, he should be the one on top of this EPA debacle in Colorado, that was a missed opportunity.

Giving ANY money to PP is a pro-abortion act, because money is fungible.

You think he could make a donation to the Nazi Party or the KKK, and get away with saying: “I gave it to that soup kitchen they run”?
