That’s the reason why Islamics are becoming such a problem in Europe ... ‘hate speech’ laws ...

‘We told you so’, Eastern Europe tells Germany

[Anger directed not at the European people so much as at their Euro-Tyrant Establishment which suppresses free speech.]

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said in his weekly radio interview that it was proof of a crisis of liberalism that reporting of the sexual assaults in Cologne had been suppressed in Germany, adding that the press in Hungary is much freer than that in western Europe.

Orban added that Hungary is in the right on the refugee issue and that migration into Europe must be completely stopped.

Hungarian media went even further in its criticism of the German government.

Orban ally Zsolt Bayer described the Cologne attackers as North African and Arabic animals - nothing but hyenas, in an article for Magyap Hirlap newspaper, Spiegel reports.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel is letting her family and children get eaten by hyenas, he wrote.

‘There are no bastards on this earth more abominable and more destructive than these liberal pigs who are digging Europe’s grave,’ wrote another paper Magyar ...

Trump’s suspicions were correct —

SABOTAGE by FoxNews!

APPROVED by the RNC?

And Cruz was supposed to look like the sweet saint who didn’t agree with Trump about banning muslims.

Like Will Robertson and Jerry Falwell Jr. said, we need real-world experience right now.

Also note that Sheriff Joe Arpio also endorses Trump.

The real reason is Cruz chews him up one side and spits him out the other. This is just the only excuse he can come up with to hide from the big boys.

And the gloves are off now. Cruz will point out EVERY liberal aspect of Donald Duck, current and past.

According to the article, Ailes is going through health issues and Murdoch is attending meetings at Fox.
This explains a lot.


Inmates are running the asylum at Fox. Michael Moore? GMAFB.

“If that were the case then he just announced to the whole world that he isn’t qualified for the office and it didn’t even register to him that he did it.”

Almost, but not quite. His claim is that any child born abroad with a U.S. citizen parent is a natural born citizen of the U.S. That is a false claim, because he is a child born abroad with a U.S. citizen parent, his U.S. citizen mother (allegedly), which makes him a U.S. citizen naturalized at birth by the authority of the Immigration and Naturalization Act of 1952. Cruz supporters and Cruz are trying to claim that Ted Cruz was not naturalized at birth, instead claiming he was natural born because he acquired citizenship at birth. What they fail and often refuse to understand is such legal terminology is utilized to distinguish between usages that indicate naturalized citizens acquire citizenship at birth, whereas natural born citizens acquire citizenship by birth. This distinction appears in a variety of current and historical authorities ranging from the current U.S. Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual and backwards in history to Sir Edward Coke in Calvin’s Case 1608 talking about the distinction between a subject-made (datus), naturalization, versus a subject-born, natural born (natus). The distinctions can be carried further back into time to the multiple layers of citizenship in the Roman Empire and the Roman Republic.

It was one of Trump's few shining points in that debate. Using 9/11 to his advantage. Too bad it was shown just to be another act, with his comments previously.

You bleeding missed the entire point. How did you manage it? Not enough caffeine?

Take two:

‘Cruz said that some of the more extreme birthers think that, not that he does.’

The point is that what Cruz said is false. No birther, no matter how extreme, believes that only NBCs can produce a pNBC. And the simple reason they don’t believe it is that it’s an impossitble condition. The US is not an infinitely old country. Therefore, under Cruz’ strawman argument, there would be NOBODY qualified for the office of president. Nobody.

The point is not a hard one at all. It is that Cruz created a contrived and fictional class of birthers for the sole, boorish reason of dragging Trump’s mother into it. There can be no other explanation for what he did. That is the point.

Hahaha. Trump bitch-slapped Teddy at the last debate.

Trump had one and only one highlight. Where he wrapped himself up in 9/11 and said NY values were great (not mentioning the 1000s of dancing Muslims this time).

According to YouTube Views (close to 700k views). This was the highlight of the debate. You decide who got slapped.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9L-prXogME

Now here is the NY city value section. (120k views)

Here is the video that Cruz hints to in the debate with Trump talking about NY values.

I don't know about you, but your point was to call me a liar. I proved I didn't lie.

Your side point may have value. But you don't start off calling someone a liar when they were not.

Second. when you say "The US is not an infinitely old country. Therefore, under Cruz’ strawman argument, there would be NOBODY qualified for the office of president. Nobody."

Actually when a country starts off and the starting citizens are considered citizens that are already there. It is not impossible.

Well perhaps you can help me, post more of those great Trump highlights you want me to watch. For some reason Trump supporters have been shy to post them. So enlighten me.
