I know Res is probably upset with me for these pics but I still like him and he has a lot of good points. I would guess that this is the only subject we differ on. Anyway he's still a good man that I respect.[/quote]

There aren't any pics on this thread. I'm sure c6th is talking about all the cartoon pics he creates. Are you saying you are unable to see the pics that are posted to this forum? |

Re: I've been trying to cut back...... |

For the last several years, I have thought the Republican's couldn't pick worse candidates, and this year puts all the rest to shame. How could we start with 17 or 19 or whatever it was number of candidates. I knew then the Republican's were in trouble. There isn't a good way out of this mess. If Trump is nominated, we are doomed as he cannot manage to keep from making crazy statements. If he isn't nominated, we are doomed cause the party has told a major constituency their vote didn't matter.
I don't doubt his business acumen, but he apparently does not realize that he cannot run roughshod over Congress, regardless of whether his ideas will work or not. He should also know that some things are best left unsaid, regardless of whether he is right or not.
What an incredible mess. Are we ready for President Hillary. We can only hope that Bernie decides to run as a 3rd party also. I am pretty sure "the Donald" will run as an independent if he isn't the nominee. I wouldn't be surprised if another candidate also runs as an independent if Trump IS the candidate. Goodness.

So I plead with all, come down off of your high horse. For once, let's have a serious discussion about where we are.
Please ,all you Anti-Trumpers and everyone else and carefully consider the words of Rush Limbuagh from yesterday.
| Quote: | Folks, I was just talking about the passion that exists on both sides here. The passion that Trump voters have for him is equaled by the passion they have in opposition to Cruz, and it's the same with Cruz people. Cruz supporters are so passionate of Cruz, and they are so, so angry and frustrated with Trump supporters for not seeing the light. And the Republican Party had better be careful, because if they end up tiring a fire hose on the passions of all of these voters, there is no way the party survives, and that's what this is.
You've got this burning passion. You've got a significant segment of Republican voters, it's a large group of people, all of the energy in this primary season is on the Republican side. Look at that turnout. That turnout is through the roof. The establishment doesn't have a single person that could generate that type of turnout. There's not a single person they can choose from their fresh faces that would come anywhere near equaling this kind of excitement. Nowhere near maintaining this kind of excitement leading to continued turnout records, which are happening in primaries.
If they do what these stories indicate they're thinking of doing, it's the equivalent of turning a fire hose on these passions and potentially on both groups of voters. And if just one of these groups of voters decides to sit it out, then it doesn't matter what fresh face they come up with. And that's why there are some people who think that the Republican establishment is totally cool with that, totally cool with maintaining the establishment, but losing to Hillary, because at least they maintain themselves. They sustain in their jobs, they sustain in their lifestyles, they remain entrenched where they are. But I don't know how you quell these passions and then convert this passion to somebody who has not run or somebody who has run and has been shellacked, but apparently it's what they're plotting or planning. |
It's fine to hate Trump, to love Cruz and to be frustrated with those who do not agree, all in the name of "principle". But if I went strictly by principle I'd be voting for the Constitution Party candidate or writing in Ron Paul's name. There comes a time when we must balance principle with pragmatism. So then, what do all of you think is going to happen at the convention? If Rush is right as to there being an establishment conspiracy (which Rush , Sean and I agree on), then do we just cover our eyes and ears and cling only to "principle"? What are your thoughts? Can, Trump and their supporters unite for the sake of the country? |

Yep it is unbelievable this year!
I still would rather see Trump than the Hillary one. If Trump is the nominee, SURELY , he will find a larger vocabulary!  _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

I think he will find a new vocabulary , and one that would not fit in a sermon , once he starts dealing with congress.  |
