Post by: rustybayonet on February 28, 2016, 07:57:59 AM
It's probably been posted before, but worth the review now with election time upon us;

From the National Review -- Long but telling article --

Good read however, this is NR and everyone of Deceitful Don's merry band will denounce the article because of this issue alone. Those that are willing to listen have already changed their minds and will cast for another. As for the rest, they are f**king lost.

Politicans lie?  No!  I don't believe it?!

So now we have to decide which lie is worse?  Does it matter if what we lie about is to cover something legal, something substantive...not just something illegal?

All politicians lie, which lies are worse?

If we are honest and strict nobody measures up...not a single one.

Armchair debate anyway, if people are banking their future liberty and happiness on latter day politicians I pity them.

Libertas - you said a mouth full --  Politicians lie?  No!  I don't believe it?!

That goes back to a question I have asked repeatedly for many years now - "Name one politician you trust ?
Unfortunately tomorrow I vote in one of the super Tuesday states, and one more time I have to cast my vote not for somebody I like and trust, but against the others.  This is true on ALL levels of this primary.  ' What a sad commentary !!
It sure would be nice on this Monday morning to be happy knowing who the hell I was going to vote for tomorrow, because I was confidant that I would be voting for the right person.  But I know it's the same old story --  well screw it  - maybe I'll just walk in , get my ballot, go right to the machine and enter a blank form, get my little "I VOTED" sticker and run like hell out of the precinct and make the day useful - and get drunk.     ::fail::

It is that sad...

We have our primary coming up this month I think...I cannot gin up enough gumption to even show up...not sure I would walk in and do anything if somebody dragged me along...

There has not been a single nominee worth getting excited about for 32 years now...and now the field of candidates is so weak...and the problems facing us are so immense...the system is too corrupt and the people too weak to solve this from within...

It sucks, I hate saying it, but we have to think beyond the now, beyond they way things are now and prepare for the way things will be soon.  We owe it to the next generations if Liberty is to be renewed, and it is up to us to help teach them how to survive and how to revive.

Wait I say! Everyone including Trump himself stated that he wasn't a politician...he's a business man.

Politicians lie but do business men? Yes, immoral ones with no center lie through their freaking teeth and then reload, agitate, spin and repeat. Mr. Trump has issues with telling not just the truth but the same thing the very next day. Forgive me but isn't there another that has bee caught lying after everything previously said?

Voting for this asswipe is a slap in the face toward values many hold dear to their souls so why the compromise? Bandwagon affect?

Breaking last night on Fox, another 'Trumpeter'.  On friday he was video taped and referred to David Duke former KKK grand 'poopa' who gave the Donald his blessing for president.  By Sunday , he didn't know who Duke was and would not accept his 'blessing'.  Than they had the former candidate, 'the Huckster' and ask him about those issues, it was very telling watching 'the Huckster' trying to tap dance around.

Could the Donald, from New York and a democratic all his life while backing just about everyone for his own benefit.  Saying one thing, then the next minute change his tune for the next question, while he is running on the GOP ticket be just another, two faced male version of Hillary ?  Nah ---- not the Donald ---  hmmmmm    ::thinking::

Boy is it great to have so many candidates wanting to lead this country that are so firm in their opinions, saying what they mean and meaning what they say.  s\Sure makes it hard to pick a winner, [or is that weiner ?].

There's lots of wieners and whiners and whackjobs and wankers....

And Trump is as much a product of the carnival nature that latter day politics has become as he is a product to be expected to arise when the party whose endorsement he seeks has done everything to alienate and betray the conservatives that gave it life and sustained it for so long.

Welcome to the end my friends...

It would have been better for Trump to run as an old time DemonRat such as Scoop Jackson. Those guys at least loved their nation first. The socialist whores in the Rat party now are so vile, that even the common Rats are looking for another possibility.

The Progs drove all conservative (usually only fiscally so and national security so) democrats out...there are no more Blue Dogs...they either joined the Pubbies or just faded away.  Trump would get trounced by the rabid strain of prog that infests the demonrats now, and he knew independents get ignored by both major parties...

They are major only in the amount of pain they inflict upon the people who know better!
