“.Hillary always referring to Amb.Stevens as “Chris”, as if they were like BFF.”

I notice that Obama does that all the time when talking to or referring to someone with a title, most noticeably a Rep. Congressman. It’s either Joe said this, or Ron did that, never referring to them by their titles. I don’t know if this is deliberate or if he’s just uncouth. Probably both.

I guess standing on his tippy toes didn’t help Jeb.

I don't think telling the truth is at all ugly, especially when I think back to the lies that Democrats spread about Republicans and all who oppose them.

There is certainly truth in your statement.

But you don't think that taking shots at Carson's religion isn't over the top?

“If this election is about how we’re going to fight to get nothing done, then I don’t want any part of it,” the candidate said. “. . . I’ve got a lot of really cool things that I could do other than sit around, being miserable, listening to people demonize me and me feeling compelled to demonize them. That is a joke. Elect Trump if you want that.”

What an egotistical tyrant. Just like his brother and daddy.

"...get nothing done" Jeb? Like what? Have any of you statist realized we are sick and tired of idiots like you just wanting to "get things done" for the sake of doing it? It's like the morons that say, "we have to do something about (fill-in-the-blank) and anything is better than nothing.". BS

And are they so arrogant they can't see the destruction of our country with all the rot we have because they were so busy "getting things done?"

I truly hate these people and all like them. They must be purged from the Republican party and conservatives, real ones and not liars at election time, need to take over or start a new party and let them all rot in hell.

Why Jeb Bush’s campaign has gone so wrong
*****************************************

Because his loyalty is to fraudulently documented foreigners and their employers and not to the citizens.

We want a President who stands for the citizens and the rule of law.

¡Yeb! is the worst Democrat in an R jersey to be foisted on us yet.

It’s to convey the idea that they are close and adds an air of authenticity to what they are saying. By calling him Chris, it suggest she would always have his best interest at heart and wouldn’t have done anything that could harm him. It helps to make the lie more believable.

His problems

1)Poison name, poison family
2)He’s less interesting than moss on the side of a rock.

IMO, Barack does it on purpose to both show disrespect for the Republicans in the House and Senate, and to imply that they are working hand-in-hand with him. ...They should stop calling him Mr. President, etc., and just refer to him as Baraq.

Trump didn’t do that. He only said he didn’t know about the SDA religion. Most people don’t know about the SDAs, until they do some research to find out it’s a cult of pacifists and strange ideas about Archangel Michael.

Jeb killed his own campaign with his apologetics over illegal aliens. Add to this that he’s just not all that noticeable a candidate in an election year filled with some unique and outstanding personalities and he’s not going to get the same earned-media as would Trump, Carson, Cruz, or Fiorina.
"Cruz" gets earned media???

(Highlight the line above to understand it).

And I’m sorry, but he all too often just looks silly and not very Presidential.
You mean standing on tippytoes for a still portrait next to your opponent - in front of a million video cameras linked to the www - isn’t presidential?

However, to my knowledge, 7th Day Adventists have yet to perform any beheadings or other terrorist acts.

Accordingly, it is completely out of line to cast the denomination in the same light as radical Islam. And, make no mistake, that is exactly what Trump did.

I hate it when he pulls $hit like that.

And I hate it even more when FReepers make excuses for him doing so.
