Trump's proud of getting praised by a guy who kills journalists who disagree with him and who invades countries because he can. <br /><br />Imagine Ronald Reagan being proud of being praised by a Soviet leader. No neither can I, but Trump shows the world how far into the sewer the Republican Party has sunk: The leading GOP candidate loves a KGB Commie dictator and trashes the President of the United States. That might be worse than being in the sewer, that is sewage itself defined.Dr. Brain Surgeonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-83287009890441930952015-12-18T06:29:48.859-05:002015-12-18T06:29:48.859-05:00"Trump got a full throated endorsement from V...<br /><br />"Trump got a full throated endorsement from Vlad Putin today."<br /><br />Game recognize game.Sofa King Conservativehttp://image1.masterfile.com/em_w/01/30/39/619-01303949w.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-81846753377469467092015-12-17T19:10:36.377-05:002015-12-17T19:10:36.377-05:00from the "you cant make this shit up category...<br /><br /> from the "you cant make this shit up category"...

The problem is the Republican base -- an estimated 12 to 17% of the population that dominates every news cycle and seeks to dominate American politics -- and the Republican party itself. This GOP base is comprised of closet segregationists such Jeff Sessions, evangelicals seeking a de facto theocracy, hacks and hatchet men such as Steven King, and moral cowards such as John Boehner who has enabled and legitimized the very worst elements of American politics. The GOP has been trending in this direction for decades -- inherited from the DNA of Joseph McCarthy and Richard Nixon. This lust for power over principle must be discredited at all cost. Frankly, I hope Donald Trump wins the GOP nomination -- and the party goes down in flames. It's the only way to purge nascent neo-fascists from our political life.(O)CT(O)PUShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07589336822561030860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-90700068009749248702015-12-17T09:04:44.511-05:002015-12-17T09:04:44.511-05:00Bob Dole, war hero and what used to be a "san...Bob Dole, war hero and what used to be a "sane Republican," on the current TeaPublican Party:<br /><br /><b>Bob Dole: Obama Is A "Good Man," Cruz Is "So Extreme" And Trump is "Over The Top"<br /><br /><br />Former U.S. Senator and Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole, like so many other Reagan-era Republicans, has sharply criticized the ignorance, bigotry, and extremism of this year’s rancid crop of Republican presidential candidates. In an interview on MSNBC today, Dole bemoaned the current state of the Republican party, which he said had become “an extreme group on the right.” <br /><br />Dole joined the growing chorus of Republicans who have harshly criticized fascist front-runner Donald Trump in the wake of his proposal to ban all Muslims from entering the United States. Dole called Trump “over the top” and set that he “couldn’t understand” how people supported him.</b><br /><br />I can understand why people are supporting neo-fascist Trump. He plays to their fears and ignorance, and that is a winner for demagogues and charlatans. The TeaPublicans have devolved into a crowd of pant-wetters and xenophobes <a href="http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-trump/" rel="nofollow">who'll listen to anyone who'll feed them lies.</a><br /><br />PolitiFact<br />FactCheck.org<br />PunditFact<br /><br />Have all exposed Trump as a liar. The TeaPublicans don't believe those fact-checking organizations because "they're supported by George Soros, and commies." So there it is, and there's the reason Trump has them in thrall to his b.s.

Long way to the convention. -H- was beating the obama at this stage of the game in 2007 and we know how that turned out. The DNC moved the election to obama because -H- was so disliked and would lose plus obama could rally the seldom voting minority. Now the DNC is stuck with -H- even if indited.<br /><br />The GOP will move the nomination toward someone electable and not Trump or Cruz.<br />-H- is trying to stay under the radar and scandals so Sanders stays a distant second. skudrunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610092853412481236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-89898732517853270132015-12-16T18:04:00.464-05:002015-12-16T18:04:00.464-05:00Thanks for posting that New Yorker piece.
