The problem you have, is that you have destroyed any credibility you ever had this last six months.
Your rants against Trump are ceaseless.
I note who your fellow travelers are, and find it absolutely astounding you want to rate Trump’s Conservative credentials after lining up with who you have.
I will get to the Scalia issue when I’m ready to.
Thanks for the links.
Neither does your smarmy, banal, puerile replies about Trump.
LOL...they keep overlooking that fact, don’t they?
Yes they do and they overlook a whole LOT of other facts as well. :-)
You don’t have just a bit of a problem with this?
Scalia has been criticized for comments he made Wednesday during the Supreme Court’s hearing of an affirmative action case in which he seemed to suggest that some African-Americans belong in lesser colleges.
“There are those who contend that it does not benefit African-Americans to get them into the University of Texas where they do not do well, as opposed to having them go to a less-advanced school, a less — a slower-track school where they do well,” Scalia said. “One of the briefs pointed out that most of the black scientists in this country don’t come from schools like the University of Texas.”
Trump attacking Cruz for refusing to go along with McConnell tells us a lot. Trump is basically telling us he will go along to get along if elected. Some fighter he is. Some tough polls come out and look what he does. He sounded like Hillary Clinton over the weekend. He’s no tough guy after all. Cruz has my vote. He’s proven he won’t fold under pressure.
You mean he's changed his position since praising single-payer 11 weeks ago?
Does that mean you'd support hate-crimes legislation?Now I know what you bigoted, name-calling, narrow-minded, Goldwater conservatives are thinking. "Hmmm, no problem with Kelo, Constitution be d@mmed. No problem with hate crimes (aka the Thought Police), Constitution be double-d@mmed. Can we trust this man?" But hey, that was a long time ago. Besides, the really, really important thing is he's electable, and he's not the Democrat, and he's really sincere when he says he's turned over a new leaf, so those who do not trust him further than they can throw Trump Towers must be freaking out about nothing at all. Right?
Absolutely. This is one of my great disappointments with George W. Bush. He had the opportunity in Texas to show national leadership by passing a hate-crimes bill but didn't - presumably from pressure form the Christian right. When somebody is victimized because of their ethnicity, the color of their skin, or their sexual orientation, that must carry a harsh penalty.
Bush had refused to meet with the Log Cabin Republicans. Would you meet with groups advocating gay rights, such as the Human Rights Campaign?
If I decide to run, I would meet with any law-abiding group representing legitimate public interests. I remember when Bob Dole refused a campaign contribution from the Log Cabin Republicans in order to pander to the religious right - a big mistake. Now I think Governor Bush is making the same mistake. If I run, my campaign would be inclusive, and I would reach out to everyone.

He went on: Quote Who am I comfortable having their finger on the button? Now thats a question of strength, but its also a question of judgment. And I think that is a question that is a challenging question for both of them.Unquote
OMG, can with trust that crazy Trump with his finger on the nuke button? How much lower can Cruz go? That's a slur the Dims and the worst of the GOPe talking heads throw (at) Trump and anyone they want to disparage.
Exactly what LBJ did to Goldwater totally eviscerate his campaign.
Famous "Daisy" Attack Ad from 1964 Presidential Election
But Rush says that Cruz has not said anything against Trump. Mendacity is not your strong suit Rush.
Cruz is a Canadian born - Globalist - Wall Street and DC insider, groomed, bought and paid for.
I've afraid there is more truth to that than I thought a few months ago. He's stuck a finger in the eye of senate leadership a time or two, but that might have been mostly self-promotion. He's usually there for them on critical votes. I need see him operate much longer before I could support him for president.
He's a much more distant number 2 for me now than a few months ago.
Quoting Woodrow Wilson to defend Trump?
You make me laugh.
Considering Trump's hair-trigger tendency to attack anyone he views as insulting him or threatening his position, yes, I worry about having his finger on the nuke button.
I want a President that is not paralyzed with fear of using the nuke button against enemies that will have no compunction against it themselves. I would as soon risk eating rats in a cave or death in a fireball as hot as the sun, than risk my great grandchildren living in the barbaric devolution of civilization brought by socialism or heinous and inhuman Islam dhimmitude.
