Donald Trump is now officially the Code Pink Republican. Or maybe he's the Daily Kos or Huffington Post Republican. How about the Debbie Wasserman Schultz Republican? I think that fits. Heck, we all saw it and we all heard it. Trump went full left loon on George W. Bush and 9/11, sounding like the most impassioned truther from the left. Did Maxine Waters do his debate prep?
Trump snarked childishly that Bush did not keep us safe on 9/11. Apparently Mr. Trump is not intellectually very curious about history. If he were, he would know that 9/11 was dreamed up, contemplated, financed, planned, and practiced on Bill Clinton's watch. This planning and practicing continued during the days of the hanging chads in Florida.
This is not to defend George W. Bush and his neocon nation-building fantasies and his capitulation to unions regarding the TSA and so on. I've been critical of Bush and Karl Rove since 2001 on these and many other issues.
But the truth matters.
And the truth is that the single biggest failure by the American intelligence community was foisted onto the CIA and the FBI by Clinton appointee Jamie Gorelick with her infamous "wall of separation" between the two agencies. They had their hands tied behind their backs -- thanks to a Clinton appointee.

I would never want to see anybody infer that Dear Leader Trump is a Mussolini clone, just because he shares so many traits thereof. That would not be nice, wouldn’t be prudent.
“Not status quo! It appears that, even though he is still just a candidate and not the President, his foreign policy is being implemented on the world sage! Consider.”
You are saying it’s not the status quo, then say it’s what is being implemented on the world stage right now. So how is that not the status quo? As in, how is that not what’s happening right now?
Many posts here have discussed the WMD’s. Bush did not lie.
I find it strange that a Republican candidate would campaign on a hate filled rant about a well-loved former Republican president.
And why? To attack Jeb Bush who has zero chance in this election.
And why? We don’t know. Jeb Bush hurt his feelings. George Bush hurt his feelings.
Or maybe Megyn hurt his feelings.
Kiddos, I hope you wake up in time.
Nope, I cant...and don’t really care. But maybe you could stick to the issue and stop worrying about other FReepers, have some intellectual honesty and discuss the liberal tendencies of Donald Trump?
I’ll show you how it’s done. I support Ted Cruz but I don’t like his TPA vote. But I still believe he’s the most consistent conservative with a long track record of believing as we do.
Now it’s your turn.
Watch that and tell me how you believe that man will advance a constitutional conservative agenda? And do it without mentioning Ted Cruz or mine or any other FReepers name.
>> Mexico will pay for the wall with the pesos they DO NOT have <<
Not no, but hell no.
Dear Leader Trump is gonna make them pay with greenback dollar bills. Cash on the barrelhead.
(But I guess gold-backed Swiss Francs might also be OK.)
Interesting that you choose to attack the poster instead of discussing the issues.
Interesting that you choose to ignore the horrible comments made by Trump supporters to people who support Cruz.
I have never seen the poster make anything but positive comments.
Also interesting that you people seem delighted that because of Trump, the current main topic of conversation seems to be the failings of the last Republican president.
Talk about helping Hillary.
So you are among the freepers who are delighted that because of your hero, Trump, the main topic of conversation in the media and here is the failures of the last Republican President.
I understand Hillary threw a party to celebrate.
Trumpy learned from his liberal democrat buddies. He tells you what you want to hear. I'm telling you what conservaties believe. Work hard, be responsible for yourself. Take your life and your outcome into your own hands. You're free to succeed, and you're free to die in debt with $500 bucks in the bank. But it's your choice... if you want to blame it on somebody else, I ain't the guy to talk to about it. I'm gonna tell you to get a brain and be responsible. If that's elitist... then it is what it is. I made it by hard work. I wasn't born with a silver spoon. I worked hard with what God has given me. You should do the same.
It means when you're in your twenties and thirties and you get a raise.... the extra money goes to pay off your home loan. It means you don't borrow more money than you could ever pay off. It means responsibility. It means you don't take the vacation you might want to take, and you pay down debt instead. It means hard work and responsibility... but it can be done.
Trumpy is not going to make anyone's life better. Not a single person. Nothing he is proposing will make your life better. If he wants to tax persons for taking jobs out of this country, he should start with himself. He is as fake as a 3 dollar bill. Recognize it, be responsible, take control of your own life and quit blaming it on somebody else.
That's conservatism. This website used to be filled with people saying that. Now they all say the new world order is stealing our money. Obammy has stolen our money. For the trumpsters here... it is always someone else who has kept us down.
Our founding fathers were elitists... in case you didn't know.... if you ascribe to be an elitist and work hard to get there... you'll be in good company.
If Trump is a liberal, why do the GOPe hate him and want nothing to do with him?

I think you answered your own question.
You’re correct - Trump is over the target, which is why he’s catching a lot of flak from the GOPee. :)
I went over and checked out the constipated conservatives hideout during the epic 867 post libbylu flame out. They were talking about setting up a FreeRepublic like site for true-believers. Someplace they could keep riff-raff who don’t agree with them out.
In between trashing FR and FReepers.
I started this primary as solid Cruz, but then he voted for TPA. And then he waffled on deportation. I found out about all the Goldman Sachs links. I found out he was a Canadian citizen until 18 months ago. But what really drove me away was the condescending obnoxiousness of some of the Cruzloyalists. They are very loyal.
Exact same thing I have thought about Cruzloyalists.
“Back in 2000 I warned everyone that Bush was an empty suit liberal, I wish more folks would have listened to me.”
I reluctantly voted for him in 2000. Didn’t make the mistake twice and voted for Michael Perouka of the Constitution Party in 2004. To hell with the two party system in this country. Both are almost identical.
The GOPe are holding prayer breakfasts praying that Trump gets the nomination.
Why? Because the obvious other choice is Ted Cruz, whom they know to be an SOB who will NOT work with them.
Whereas Trump is malleable.
Great. two more posts attacking our last Republican President.
Are you people having fun, or what?
Bush gave us Obama. His policies line up more with liberal democrats than they do republicans. Typical RINO.
I haven’t gone over to that site but I understand the attraction.
Getting away from absolute idiots would be a nice change.
Fortunately, you do not represent the majority on Free Republic.
On the issues most important to me, Trump is the one addressing them.
If the illegal alien inundation is not stopped we will have no country to argue about.
You telling anyone to get a brain is hilarious.
