-- So now we can't discuss Constitutional issues on FR? Give me a break. --

I'm as big a birther as any, but I find CW's request here to be totally appropriate at this time, and in this thread. There are other issues, Trump has baggage too, and it's good to air out or vet all the candidates on all the issues. There are plenty of threads where the birther question is debated. All the posters here have landed on one side or the other.

Not saying your point of view isn't valid. I think it is, I share it. But time and place, time and place.

Your mileage may vary.

Try to make sense when you comment please.

Cogent, cohesive comments will elicit a response.

“Hopefully, Scott Walker will too.”

Who’s Scott Walker? :)

I believe, in part, Rick Perry's timing on his Ted Cruz endorsement is due to Sarah Palin's embrace of Donald Trump last week.

Can’t be - Cruz is ‘heartless’, you know being for border security, or at least so I thought...

This would have been a better reply.

“you’re right, and it is rude for me to slander people for just supporting another candidate.”

: )

Gov Scott Walker is the fellow who, right out of the box in his first term (2011), revoked instate tuition for illegal aliens (only gov who has), the conservative who clipped the wings of unions and the university tenure system, and cut taxes (winning 3 elections in 4 years while under a secret John Doe witch hunt investigation ).

You betcha. If Trump loses, your dreams will come true with the amnesty candidates increasing the invasion of Syrian Muslim refugees and ISIS terrorists.

I didn’t bring it up and resent being included in your chastisement.

John Quincy Adams’ wife was the only first lady born in a foreign country—England. She played the harp, wrote satirical plays and raised silkworms. Andrew Jackson’s wife was a bigamist, having married Jackson before she was divorced from her first husband...

i figured i’d dump the whole paragraph.

have NO IDEA what one has to do with the other lol.

To be inclusive, I included everyone who was starting to do the “dance” and catch everyone who might keep that “thread hijacking” ball in the air - those who felt compelled to respond to a provocation.

I apologize if you felt I was admonishing you when I was only alerting you.

-- It's really no worse than her non stop posting of TDS articles. --

I agree. And I've posted birther stuff in those threads but only when she advanced it as an issue, argued the point. She's politely attempted to "nip it in the bud" on this thread, and even though she's "in an opposing camp," there is value in at least a pretense of keeping the peace.

Plus, the Perry endorsement is an interesting angle all of its own.

Just tossing in my two cents. It's early in the morning for me, and maybe composing remarks is intemperate. I'm not criticizing you, BTW. Just sharing my mind.
