Free Republic

Oh so typical. Another walk back. Exactly my point, glad one of you finally admitted that “the wall” isn’t going to happen. Truth is, you have no idea what he will do, what he will settle for, aka what he will sell-out for. That is exactly what will allow Hillary to beat him. Evil as the old hag is, she does believe the in bs of the left.

The US government can not be run like a business. Sure, he can cut waste, trim budgets and relax regulations, but he can’t govern flying by the seat of his pants. Right now, he’s like a fart in a skillet, and not steady conservative, but GREAT DEALS should make up for it, right?

I’m not questioning his business sense. He obviously has some. I’m questioning this inability to understand that what comes out of his mouth has consequences. He does not have room for those kind of errors, especially with foreign policy. His “kidding around” (according to the walk back from his advisers), about restricting the press (relaxing the libel laws) isn’t the least bit funny.

I “get” that people are angry. I am too at the lawlessness in our current government. But, I am NOT going to vote for someone whose actions so far are comprised of a big middle finger to the GOPe. His “the government will pay for it” remark really comforts those of us wanting a SMALLER, unobtrusive government, NOT.

I understand that he isn’t a politician. Yet at the same time, his “brilliance” is questionable when he mouths off about wanting to punch a protester. Instead of challenging the protester, he threatens the idiot. They made him look like a fascist-dictator-bully, and he fell for it. These are worse than just rookie mistakes. How can he possibly govern if when thwarted (and he will be OFTEN) his first instinct is resorting to childish actions and name calling?

Character, experience, and temperament DO matter. He’d do well to develop all of them....rapidly. Right now, he’s about as steady as a rock slide, calm as a rock concert, and as serious as Bruce Jenner pretending to be a woman.

Amen. He is so unpredictable, and that scares me. A raised middle finger is not going to govern this country, and that’s all I’ve seen out of him so far. He’s going to make “Great deals”...yeah, I’m gonna need a few more details than that.

Having flash backs of Obama playing “3D” chess from 2008. The faith Trump’s supporters have in him is astonishing. He’s been on both sides of so many issues, and y’all just take him at his word that he’s on the right side this time.

I hope it doesn’t happen at all. All these GOPe idiots running their mouths right now is not helping matters. Trump is such a wild card that I am scared to death of him. I’m really hoping that MOST of his actions and speeches are an outrageous act. I am not at all certain of that.

Point taken, however, men have forever been thinking with the wrong organ. It’s only been in these last 40 or so years that we women haven’t allowed any other kind of “imput”. We’ve become all knowing, all powerful bitches to be frank. The decent guy can’t win with both the bitches AND the “horn-dogs” against him. I don’t begin to have any ideas short of helping my husband to raise our boys to be decent men, and pray that they eventually cross paths with a sweet ‘ol down home country girl who wants lots of critters and babies.

I blame WOMEN...plain and simple. Which really sucks because I am one.

Ask yourself one question....What has been the nucleus of civilized society, time immortal? The family.

I grew up in the 70’s, small town Texas, and received very little women’s-lib indoctrination. I and my friends were raised to seek a decent man to build a life and family with. My brothers were raised to be decent men who would be expected to provide for a family. Our hopes/dreams were having a family of our own.

Since the late 70’s, early 80’s, WOMEN have been empowered to basically kill off the family. We’ve masculine-i zed our daughters and emasculated our sons. Unfettered access to birth control/abortion, no consequence sex, total women’s-lib immersion at school, and how many of us have also told our daughters that they don’t need a man to take care of them? They’ve been told since birth that they either need to be strong & self-reliant or a government dependent. You are the master of your own destiny! No man is required. Home and family?? Nah, you’ve got bigger & better things to do, little girl!

And, no decent men need apply anyway, ‘cause guess what? We WOMEN haven’t raised many! We’ve raised “baby-daddys”! The other side of the coin. Knock some girl up? Don’t worry son, she can take care of it herself! She’s your EQUAL and LET herself get pregnant! Or, when the WOMEN allow the progeny to survive to birth, and then it’s shut up and pay me for the next 18 years! The men have so little say so in anything that the decent ones rarely even try beyond paying child support. We’ve allowed the WOMEN to become all powerful and the men to become an unneeded, unwanted, worthless joke.

The guys who aren’t sought after by WOMEN, the “geeky”, “sensitive”, awkward, quiet, shy, powerless ones, escape into fantasy land. Exceedingly violent video games or drugs, etc. Their imaginations are the only place they can feel powerful and respected. Being heroes in glorious bravery has been humiliated out of them. Being FAMOUS is now what they strive for.

In my opinion, this disrespect of men and of life itself, is certainly a contributor to violence like this. Life is cheap now days. Guys are TAUGHT that they must deny the best of their nature (to provide & protect), and only give free rein to their baser nature (violence/seek sex) to compete for women and be respected by other men. It’s a wonder we don’t have more young men that do idiotic sh*t like this.

I just got home from the AWESOME Fishersville, Va. Rally!! The state police had to turn people away on the Interstate because they ran out of parking space! Cars were lined up for miles in both directions on Interstate 64 still trying to get in. Trace Atkins performed, then the NRA guys, then Ryan, then Romney! I was astounded at the volume of people that came. I spoke with one man that drove all the way from Hagerstown, Md. Amazing!

You just outed yourself. Here’s a hint...conservatives don’t refer to like minded candidates as “right wing”. We don’t consider conservatives as anything but normal, so we have no need to label them as being “right wing”.

Nice try. Run on back to DU/KOS or wherever and pass the word.

Are you really this dense? I mean this is seriously embarrassing. Although I’m not familiar with this particular company, I do know business. Even if the guy didn’t own a share of stock, the owners/shareholders hired HIM. They obviously considered his talents and paid him accordingly. He was paid for his skills/expertise at a rate that they agreed to.

If I need a master electrician, I don’t hire a helper. Additionally, I don’t pay a helper the same rate as a master electrician. Even your sainted unions agree on that.

Uh..hello...it was HIS to suck the life out of! What part of that do you not understand? He was free to do as he pleased with an asset he OWNED.

He didn’t give birth to those employees. His responsiblity to those people ended when his company (for WHATEVER reason) lost its ability to compete. That is how it works. Survival of the fittest. Cheaper labor, cheaper product, more sales. Any of those employees could have started their own business to compete with him!

A scanning of an Economics 101 textbook would serve you well. Quit whining about being a victim! Develop a marketable skill and do it yourself! There is money to be made if you have the guts and determination to make it.

DU troll, I’m sure.

No sir, my “soul” is just fine, thank you very much. My tithes are paid, and I've rendered to “Caesar”.

On a another note, I love how very judgmental you've suddenly become. Does this mean that your belief in the 10 Commandments is strong as well?

Point taken...but so do many business owners, and I would say more so by far than union members.

Are you kidding? No, seriously..open up the books? Are you INSANE? There are 2 things that I as an employer will NEVER consider. The first is opening my books for anyone short of the IRS (and then ONLY in the presence of my CPA & Lawyer), and second, allowing a union to tell me how to run my business. Unions are just like the government. Too expensive, useless, and are parasites on the “working man's” back.

If my employees don't like the way I run my business, they're free to go somewhere else. Slavery DID end quite a while ago. And if one of them ever PRESUMED to ask to see my books, they're history. Buh-bye!

Are you sure you're on the right site? Greed is good...say it with me now...greed is good. What do you think drives this economy? Duh-huh. I'm not in business to save the world, or provide the less astute with a job. I'm in it to make money. Plain & simple. I've got brains, skills, gumption,a healthy dose of audacity, and know how to hustle. I figure another 15 years of ass busting and I'll be done.

Please add me to your ping list. Thanks!

Yep, this is pay back for McDonnell winning & embarrassing Zero, for DARING to balance a budget and for Kenny C. filing the Zerocare lawsuit. Sure cut the military contracts, show ‘em I WON.

Well, Northern Va. needs a little cleaning out anyway. How about yanking some of those night-crawler lobbists out of there too?

I hope that never happens, but events like this really makes an employer think twice about hiring one. Maybe this could be why the black unemployment rate STAYS roughly twice of what the white rate is. Why would I subject myself and my company to the hassle?

While this complete waste of oxygen was obviously a nut case, he thought he could teach those white boys a lesson. He can be assured that he did. We'll probably never hire another black man. If that makes us racist, so be it.

Many years ago, the one and only black employee we ever had started out as a real go-getter. He would do anything you asked him and did it well. It lasted 2 weeks. THEN his girlfriend broke up with him and he started stalking her, beat up her new boyfriend, jail, etc. Long story short...he started drinking on the job and DH fired him.

He threatened to sue for discrimination, but thankfully DH had a witness as his “lunch box” (Coleman cooler) got knocked over in the work truck right in front of DH and the county electrical inspector. His 4 full beers rolled out and so did the 2 empty cans he'd already drank. DH fired him on the spot. It was 8:15 in the morning, on a job site, and thankfully they were just standing around waiting on the power company to arrive to pull the meter. They hadn't done any work yet.

This was back in the 1980’s. Even then this guy was playing the race card. I can't imagine what we would have had to do to fire that idiot today. Even back then we would have had a time had it not been for having an “official” witness.

Why anyone would think “civil war” over this is crazy. (BTW, The Civil War was NOT over slavery.) IF one occurs again, it will be over property. The “whites” have it, and the “blacks” believe they're entitled to it. ‘Cause they've been denied everything by the MAN dontchaknow.
