"You think the GOPe and their Fox News minions are going to stand for Cruz either? Your hatred for Trump is blinding you to reality."
If they can take out Trump, woe unto the remainder of the field.
And, woe unto us. Not because he is going to be our savior as certainly his is not.
But, right now he is our most effective and powerful TOOL.
Donor class, Washington Cartel, Political Class...whatever you want to call the beast who's heart is in Washington DC MUST BE BROKEN.
For all of us here, we must make this the single imperative of this election cycle as we may never get another chance.

I have maintained for 40+ years that if you accept a ride in the wagon you give up your right to vote. ONCE RIDING IN THE WAGON YOU WILL FOREVER VOTE FOR THE PARTY HANDING OUT THE GOODIES.
The following quotation has been attributed to Tytler, although it has also been occasionally attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville:
A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.

Women and men should have the ability to vote. And they should also have the wisdom, sense, and good taste to not do so.
I used to wonder why we as a society spend so much time, money, and effort on the electoral system. Then I realized, elections have less to do with the selection of leaders and more to do with societal control. It’s amazing what horrors and villainy people will tolerate so long as they get a tiny voice in deciding who implements it.

FoxNews has become THE enemy to conservatives. Thursday was full of hit jobs against conservative candidates ONLY - Trump, Cruz and Walker - and let the others go. Only Trump got the Wallace challenge on Mexico, and Rubio — WHO WROTE THE AMNESTY BILL — got a total pass, and 2 softballs from Facebook. That abortion “question” from Kelly to Walker was disgusting. I cannot stand that bitch, and will no longer watch her show.

The initial reaction from Fox and the blowhard who does the focus groups was that the hit job on Trump was a success. The self congratulatory smirk on the face of Megyn and the old guy who’s face doesn’t move demonstrated that they felt she succeeded in destroy Trump. Wrong.
I have always left the TV on Fox whether I am watching or not. Today, I will not turn on Fox until maybe October. Well, maybe only to watch Hannity. but that’s it. no more fox in the morning or Megyn or OReilly in the evening.
To: caww
I agree, and I’ll be damned if some FReepers are thrilled with it.
What a bunch of A-holes.

Megyn though she would score points with the bosses by taking Trump down. The bosses want RINO’s to get the nomination. It is no more complicated than that.
What will Fox News bosses do if Trump’s polling goes higher in the next polls coming out? Will Megyn become more aggressive in the next debate on Fox News?

Romney was not great on social issues, but compared to the current resident of WH who hates America, Romney most certainly did not hate America. Romney talked about self deporting illegals, if I remember correctly.

Irresponsible voters are the reason this country has fallen so far so fast. For example, how many people would vote for the various entitlement programs if the money to pay for it came out of their own pockets? That was the reason for the or5ginal voting rights restrictions in the US Constitution. Unfortunately, progressives, in order to get their ridiculous ideas through, knew they have to get more irresponsible voters on the rolls. Lowering the voting age to 18 was one way, because people are never so gullible and irresponsible as when they are young, and letting indigents vote was another, because people who can't succeed on their own are more likely to vote to screw those that can.
Finally, we have women. Frankly, women just have a different base psychology than men. In general, they will happily sacrifice liberty for security, and they instinctively vote to get themselves "free" resources as much as possible, which directly results in an all-powerful nanny state. Lastly, women are, unfortunately, much more prone to emotional manipulation, especially by a politician they find "sexy". The progressives/Marxists recognized long ago that the key to getting their agenda passed was women voting. That's a fact. It probably is unrealistic to believe that we'll get rid of women's suffrage now, but we can still learn our lesson for the rebuild after we collapse.

Romney would have given us RomneyCare. Now we have SCOTUScare. If I must be betrayed, I’d rather be betrayed by an enemy than a friend. I will never vote for a liberal Republican, ESPECIALLY on social issues.

Have you taken the time and trouble to study Romneycare?
If you have, please tell me what is the penalty for not signing up for Romneycare?
Yes this is a quiz for people who compare 2 different things without knowing the details.

There it is... Best post after reading many many others.
Do you think Trump knows this and won’t kneel or back down to them?

Anyone recall Barack Obama's comments after Sarah Palin's hockey mom joke about, the difference being "lipstick?"
He said, you can put lipstick on a pig and it's still a pig.
And he compared her to a STINKING OLD FISH.
The Media Loved it! And the crowd went wild.
Palin had used the term Change, and she had just rocked the convention wirh a stirring speech and the Lipstick joke.
"You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called 'change,'" Obama continued, "it's still gonna stink after eight years."
