Mr. Mercer’s apparently a great Texas hold-em player as well, so this is excellent news.

Wait for Democrats to start ranting against the man for taking advantage of morons on their own free will (as opposed to taking advantage of everyone by force, which is obviously righteous and necessary as stated by the Gospel of the Democrat).

We agree. My point is simply that soros is no more Jewish than hitler was Christian or Pelosi is catholic or obama American. Less so actually since he openly rejects faith in God and the Jewish prayer tradition The key to Soros is his atheism and nazi training. Not whether his long- dead forebearers were people of faith. Gotta look at the Ibro usual and yes he will be held to account for all the evil he’s done ! Knowing, properly understanding our enemies is an essential part of fighting back against them effectivrly Anyone who falls for the Obama’s Christian” BS will never be able to understand or deal with his islamonazi evil deeds and policies Gotta get the enemy into correct focus before you can __ ‘ Thanks.

What else can you draw when a potus ONLY uses his bully pulpit to prosecute Christians directly and indirectly whenever possible?

Scott Walker has taken the bull by the horns on several occasions yet he isn't as popular as Cruz and to the best of my knowledge, Walker doesn't have any billionaire backers. What does that say? I really don't know, maybe something, maybe nothing.

So, tell me, why is Scott pandering to the Iowans about the RFS if he is such a man of principle? Especially when he was so dead set against it before he started considering running for President?

Yes. As others here have noted, just as soon as we properly focus on him as a muslim islamoNazi ALL his policies,actions, and inactions suddenly make perfect sense - and are predictable too - which helps us know what evil he may try to do next. So we can be better prepared to deal with it.

“Soros is no more a Jew than BHO is a Christian. He is a socialist, a progressive. That is the salient aspect of this guy: not that he is white, Hungarian or born in a Jewish family. People sometimes let their Jew-hatred get the better of their reason.”

The term “Jew” is as much an ethnic term as a religious one, maybe even more so. There are plenty of Jews who are athiests; there are even some who are Christians.

I agree about the Jew-hatred, and the “traitor-Jew” comments are not helpful. Why not “traitor-Italians” or “traitor-Irish” or traitor-any other group? Because they aren’t linked. But they aren’t linked for Jews, either, but some would like to keep in the forefront of everyone’s mind that Soros (or whoever) is a Jew when he does things that we don’t like.

The problem isn’t “traitor-Jews.” The problem is traitors.

I would guess the Kochs are going to back Rand Paul and Singer will back Bush or Rubio. The billionaires on our side of the aisle are probably going to be split.

In other words, libs are trying to avoid anyone thinking that Cruz has mainstream grassroots support...

Your ignorance is showing! The only person I was negative about of Jewish heritage was Soros and if you think calling that piece of excrement what he is, which is war criminal for turning innocent Jews into the Nazis to be killed is anti semitic, you need some assistance!

“Walker doesn’t have any billionaire backers. What does that say? I really don’t know, maybe something, maybe nothing.”

Well he hasn’t officially declared yet but I have no doubt that he will have some large donors contributing.

WI billionaire John Menard Jr. gave a pro-Walker group over $1.5 million during his campaign for governor. And he had 13 out-of-state big donors. (see following article link for list of names and amounts)

Diane Hendricks, the billionaire owner of a roofing company and the wealthiest woman in WI gave him $510,000 for his re-call election.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/clareoconnor/2012/06/05/gov-scott-walkers-big-money-backers-include-13-out-of-state-billionaires/

I would not be surprised if at least a few of these donors will write a check for Walker if and when he decides to throw his hat in the ring.

And where to put them when this nightmare is finally over.
