I heard him on Howard Stern’s show a couple of years ago saying he was pro life and anti- gay marriage .

Not Fair, Not Fair, Not Fair, Sushiman.

Everyone else is saying he's pro-abortion, how dare you bring in Trumps own words to the contrary .

Have you considered for even a moment how that might upset AuH2? And others?

Have some compassion, sushi

The Republicans couldn't even defund Planned Parenthood after they were caught red-handed selling baby parts.

I heard Rush make that comment today.

It's a clear example of the extreme weakness of the conservative movement. If we can't get people on our side when the other side is killing babies and selling the parts, then there's a problem.

I made the comment a few months ago about this phenomenon: What is it about conservatism (and the Republican party) that so much of the population completely reject it?

There are many intelligent and talented people in this country that are very liberal. Why is that? Why are so many intelligent people attracted to the Dem party and repulsed by the GOP? Has anybody in the GOP ever studied this?

I have my theories.

I think we’ll see a lot of that. People are finally getting off their couches to vote.

Seriously? Can’t get much lower than trying to pull Trump into the sad Terri Schiavo tragedy.

I guess she let hubby do the voting decisions; she was busy running a household of at least 10 people (she raised 8 children), doing all the cooking, cleaning, minding of everyone’s needs -

You know, all of that UNIMPORTANT stuff.

When they’re finally old, women of her generation have more time to pay attention to crucial things like Politics.

“There are many intelligent and talented people in this country that are very liberal. Why is that?”

I'm surprised you feel that way. It may be your age group. There are many intelligent Conservatives out there. The liberals are liberals because they have been indoctrinated in schools and don't think for themselves. They want to be popular and say the politically correct things.

People are not rejecting conservatism, but a lot of the politicians lied to us to get elected. It's hard to find good honest conservative politicians who don't ignore the people that elected them as soon as they get to Washington.

The thing is we don't have a party that is really conservative. The Republicans are conservatives in name only. They sell out to the highest bidder as soon as they get to Washington.

Sen. Tom Cotton was the only one in the Senate who voted against the Corker bill. This bill will allow Obama to get his Iran Nuke deal through Congress.

I feel betrayed by the Republicans. That is one of the reasons Trump is so popular. I'll take Trump over Jeb Bush any day. We don't need another one from the Bush/Clinton family. Unlike the Bush clan, including Jeb, a real conservative could not cozy up to the Clintons. Bill Clinton runs around with a indicted pedophile and this doesn't even seem to bother the Bush clan.

She was born about 8 years after women got the right to vote. She belonged to a different culture back then where the women were expected to run the household and the men paid attention to the external world. Running a household was a lot of work back then. Many didn’t even have indoor plumbing.

I’m proud of her.

Thank you for putting the lady’s life in perspective and not judging her by today’s standards.

There is the problem, you are a single issue voter. You have to see the big picture and sometimes that means a compromise.

There are way too many single issue voters.

Yes. When I was a younger voter, I voted for Carter & then when he sat on t.v. in a sweater & chided me for being in a malaise; I said, “What the . . . ?” - Then when Reagan ran, told me I wasn’t in a malaise, I voted for Reagan & have never looked back. Don’t know where I go from here; but, so far I like where I am better than where I was during Peanut’s term.

I’m not a single issue voter.

I have 3 criteria that must be met by a candidate before I’ll consider them.

Abortion abolished, 2nd Amendment, and Closing the border.

Any candidate that doesn’t believe in those things, doesn’t get my support, or vote.

All the rest of the stuff we can discuss.

I’d love to see Trump put her in an ad. And pay her well for her efforts.

To: Kickass Conservative

If you don’t understand my point, nothing I can say will make it any clearer.

Donald Trump is a liberal, always has been, always will be. He likes to pretend to be different things at different times, such as a pro wrestling manager, a TV star, a “business school” scam artist, etc. and like a cicada, he springs up every seven years or so to pretend to be a patriotic American who can save the country by running for president. Sometimes he vows to install universal healtcare; sometimes he speaks out in favor of amnesty for illegal aliens; sometimes he speaks out in favor of abortion on demand. This time he’s pretending to be a conservative. Some people believe him. I don’t.

No, that’s what some other guy did when he changed the subject from Donald Trump being pro-abortion (until he “discovered” he was pro-life when he was pondering a GOP presidential run in 2011) to whether Jeb Bush did enough to try to save Terri Shiavo from her adulterous, murderer of a husband and that Mengelian Judge Greer.
