your procedural paladins statement indicates you are thinking we need a dictator. Are you?

Anyone with a few miles on them knows regulations and restrictions tend to be flexible in practice.

Anyone denouncing those who make use of that flexibility on theoretical grounds is being disingenuous on their reason for opposition.

Francisco Franco was rather like Sulla, and God knows we may need a Franco.

you present, as I suspected you would, a false choice - a straw dog argument - misrepresenting what I mean....either thru ignorance and low reading comprehension or perhaps thru intellectual dishonesty because you stepped into my snare.

or both...

I like what I’m reading. “Time to Get Tough”. He has always been a Republican. He has given money to democrats, (bought them off, for his purposes). I like the Trump-Cruz. I don’t care for Trump-Carson. Carson wants to close ALL Veterans hospitals. Why? I have yet to hear, has anyone else heard why Carson wants to close veterans hospitals?

It depends on what day of the week, Month of the year or if he happens to be a registered Republican or Democrat at that moment. He is Willard with billions instead of millions.

One way would be to take a gigantic meat axe to this monolithic central socialist government and reduce it to the bloated size of the New York State government....at least.

Like that's going to happen. You could literally defund entirely every agency other than Defense, Veterans Affairs, and Homeland Security and do away with every dollar of discretionary funding they had and you would still be running a deficit. And you know that's not going to happen. So how is he going to do it?

No useless wars.

Well not wait a second there, you're forgetting one of Trumps early points - invade a country then make it pay for the invasion. That might be a money-maker.

a president with serious executive experience would be a huge asset.

You want Walker or Jindal then, not a real estate mogul.

Trump’s a businessman....not a “tell all.”

Why should Trump give out his ideas....tell competitors how he operates? He’s accommodating when he wants to be....to help someone else profit on his acumen.

I laugh out loud when people talk about Trump’s “money-making businesses.” The fact is he has yet to tell exactly how he makes his money.

And why should he?

I know how he does it....and I’m not telling, either.

I support Trump, hopefully with Ted Cruz as VP as a prelude to Cruz eventually being President.

Thank you, Mr. Republicrat shill.

Or, if a Democrat shill then accept my apology. Critiques like yours would then be proper.

Disagree. Take a 60 inch diameter table and you MIGHT fit 5 very lg chairs around it comfortably. Down size chairs by approx 30% and you can add 2 -3 chairs per table.

It doesn’t say what the fire rating is for the room so it could very well have been rated for 300 people or more and the use of oversize furniture would of course limit that, perhaps significantly.

Your friend has assumed facts which were not in evidence.

I don’t think he’s lying, but it doesn’t seem at all logical. I’d say he has oversimplified. You can’t make a table for eight into a table for twelve. You’re better off adding a few tables and chairs.

Actually that position would stop better than 95% of abortions.

You are confusing the terms “Life of the mother” with “Health of the mother”

The demonrats like the term health because it can be stretched to include things like mental anguish

If you stop 95% then you effectively stop the others because there won’t be the huge abortion industry - they can’t make money on that few

It is explained if you would read entire article.

no, what I did was prove - beyond any doubt - that the accusation of me being a voice for the status quo - is just idiotic, baseless, and 180 degrees out of phase with reality. In other words, you STEPPED IN IT. And it’s still on your shoes.

You can accuse me of a lot of things that I’ll not protest - hell, I’ll even fess up to some of them - but you just demonstrated ignorance with that particular criticism.

Maybe try again. Or not....

I can think of no greater alternate universe to Obamism than the cult of Trump.

what does he stand for?

Looking at history, he basically has been for and against everything in the past 20 years. I expect more opportunistic putting the finger in the wind, as time passes. I also expect him to return to full retard liberal at some point too. Again, outside immigration, there really isn't much difference in his positions and Rudy G;'s.
