Even PG movies use language like that and worse regularly.

Even the anti-Trump posters pretending to faint over it use language like that and worse regularly.

Pussy cat: Fine!
Pussy whipped: Okay.
He’s a real pussy. “Oh, my! Hand me my smelling salts, Rupert!”

[exit82]

I am taking a leap here, M, but methinks the SEALS have more descriptive terms they freely use in such situations. ;)

[Travis McGee]

Just a little bit.

[kabar]

LOL. Obama has certainly set the example.

Sound like a Jeb Bush supporter. Or maybe Hillary.

[SampleMan]

Is that what you really want? Another "presidential" type who says all the right words while the world crumbles around them? Another one-world-order type whose language is impeccable while their actions are finishing off America? Seriously?

No you big pussy (irony?)

Oh, does that bother you? Do you think that furthers or hinders further discussion? Are you now awed by me?

You are confusing crude with decisive. Any idiot can be vulgar, that doesn't make them a genius, nor does it make them some amazing firebrand.

[Politicalkiddo]

Hm takes one to know one, coward.

[traderrob6]

Perhaps, but many of these same people would have gone apoplectic if anyone else would have said it.

..I said that if you’re a child molester, a sick puppy, a child molester, there’s no cure for that there’s only one cure and we don’t want to talk about that cure, that’s the ultimate cure. No there’s two, there’s death and the other thing. But if you’re a child molester, there’s no cure, they can’t stop you. Pathological, there’s no cure.”

WT.....H?

Trump was talking about a specific point of cowardice where Cruz was wishy washy about waterboarding.

He was wishy washy with his answer, and should have stood up to the PC crowd, but he didn't want to offend anyone.

Any problems with that? I far preferred the Trump answer, what about you?

It's not much different in cowardice than what Cruz said in December about the Clinton family sex problems being off limits.

Patterns, they emerge.

[Red Steel]

I see Canned Spam has to get in on the act. LoL.

[TheStickman]

T’was a hilarious moment when Trump repeated & then reprimanded/admonished her for it.

Go Trump!!!

[SampleMan]

What exactly is “Presidential”?

May I suggest you open a book.

[elhombrelibre]

She hurt his feelings. She wouldn’t bow down to the bully. So like most bullies, he pouted and claimed he’d been picked on by the big mean Megyn. And his fans started hating her because she had the audacity to ask him questions about his previous crude remarks. As is usual for a spoiled little rich kid, he wasn’t used to a regular person talking back to him. What a big sissy. LOL

[patq]

Did the wittle canadian get his feelings hurt because a female voter called him a name? Truth hurts, Teddy.

(While he obviously would have to get his plan through Congress first, and tell SCOTUS to go pound sand, at least he’s endorsing the correct plan. Trump isn’t. And before you accuse me of being a Cruzbot, I think Trump’s stance on the invaders is a good enough reason to vote for him.)

[Kenny]

I don’t care about Trump’s language, not like the Presidency is such a noble spot after Clinton anyway.

But if we have to keep Trump locked in the WH because of his language, I don’t care. I don’t need another silver-tongued President selling snake oil.

I want a President who’s going to pull us back from the precipice, fix the economy, stop the foreign invasion, protect us from ISIS, etc. I’ll gladly take a foul word no and then in exchange for that.

[grania]

It’s telling that none of the wannabees are defending Cruz.

Is Obama Presidential? Was LBJ presidential? Who sets the standards? People need to read our history to see how some of our Presidents acted. Start with Andrew Jackson.

Harry Truman had no problem using salty language. His attack on critic Paul Hume is legendary.

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

Dec. 6, 1950

Mr. Hume:

I've just read your lousy review of Margaret's concert. I've come to the conclusion that you are an "eight ulcer man on four ulcer pay."

It seems to me that you are a frustrated old man who wishes he could have been successful. When you write such poppy-cock as was in the back section of the paper you work for it shows conclusively that you're off the beam and at least four of your ulcers are at work.

Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you'll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below!

Pegler, a gutter snipe, is a gentleman alongside you. I hope you'll accept that statement as a worse insult than a reflection on your ancestry.

H.S.T.
