“Mr. Cruz is not running for VP. You guys are smoking your pipe dreams.”
I fully agree. Senator Cruz is in this to win. I suspect many keep pushing the Trump/Cruz ticket idea because they somehow think it will “unite” the party. That won’t happen.
Speaking for myself, Mr. Trump is never going to be an acceptable choice for POTUS in either a primary or general election. I really respect Senator Cruz and hope he ascends to the nomination, but would quickly lose respect for him if he became the running mate for Mr. Trump.
The one good thing Mr. Trump has done is bring attention to some issues. However, he would better serve the country to push the issues, but no longer as a candidate. Maybe he should start his own political radio/TV program and become another Rush. However, he is not the right temperament to serve as POTUS.
obama is importing his own private army, ours might not follow his orders to kill americans...why am I the only one that see’s that?
I thought the same thing - when we raise our children it’s “brainwashing” because it interferes with their indoctrination.
WOW...those scary Christians!
Lol!
Exactly.
(1) *Chik-Fil-A.
2. Here is a sterling example of that which is called, in various contexts, reductio (or argumentum) ad absurdum, eis atopon apagoge, or the more prosaic "Straw Man Argument".
3. Thank you for playing.
So when *does* that stubble become a beard?
I’ve been playing a long time.
Play harder.
Why? Your lack of substantive response demonstrates my "economy of force" quite sufficient to the task.
Didn't think one was necessary.
My response was deliberately dismissive of an irrelevant non sequitur.
However, since you insist upon one:
The point at which stubble becomes a beard is subjective. In my humble opinion, it takes place when the owner makes an effort at grooming it in some way...defining the edges, trimming the length; or as in the case of the Duck Dynasty guys, when no obvious intent at grooming is evidenced.
Hence my citation of "the continuum fallacy" to answer your "straw man" assertion.
But really, denying the obvious analogical similarities with a pretentious Latin cliché, and that offered in a contextual vacuum, is just weak.
You have convinced me.
You are, in fact, a real Tiger.
Go get ‘em.
Love hearing liberal weinies whine.
