I am NOT and I repeat NOT a Trump supporter. I support Cruz. If you look through my posting history you will see that I am not a big fan.......That being said....
The reason that the 9/11 hijackers were able to do what they did is because of the lax immigration/VISA programs that are supported by BOTH Republican and Democrat parties.
These guys came in on student VISAs and then disappeared. They melted into the population and nobody did shit about it. Nobody cared or even noticed.
George Bush didn't keep us safe. Jeb and Marco and Ben and John all support the same system. They bring in everyone that wants to come and then do nothing to verify they are doing what they said they were coming here for. If that system was not in place prior to 2001, the towers would still be standing.
Hello All.
Just finished watching Sat. nights debate. I didnt see what all the fuss everyone was talking about concerning a Trump meltdown. First off I fast forward thru Rubio, Cruz, moderators and the Idiot Kasich. Two hour debate now 30 min. I have always liked Carson so there.
It was like watching Batman (Adam West version) vs The Riddler, Joker and The Penguin. Splatt! Kapow! Sock! Trump defended himself from Bush, and Cruz like a street fighter disregarding the Queen of Marquessberry rules. Loved every minute of it. The meltdown is plain to see here on FR by those on the contiuing losing side. Suck It Jeb! Bring back Walker!! Lol.
Go Trump
Once in office, Bush and his Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta followed up with federal programs to wipe out profiling of Arabs at airports.
I don't think 9-11 was caused by Republicans, I think 9-11 was caused by terrorists and that the "establishment" failed on a number of levels over the years.
I also don't think GWB lied... after all we have video of Bill Clinton and others making passionate speeches in favor of a regime change in Iraq... before GWB even was elected.
That said, this is all irrelevant at this point... we can't change the past. We need to deal with the present and the future.
It's clear to me that the "establishment", which consists of both Democrats and Republicans, is out of control and doesn't have our best interests at heart. This is why I wan't an outsider like Trump to come in and clean house for a bit. Electing another career politician won't help one bit.
Trump can say whatever he wants to get elected... positioning himself as having been against the Iraq invasion while Hillary was for it is a smart tack to take in order to win over a certain segment of the population who isn't well-informed about that part of history.
It was Jeb who started it in the first place by saying he’d keep the country safe, like his brother did.
Trump called him on it, and rightfully so.
With all due respect, kiss my grits.
Cruz is a fraud. Rubio is a fraud. Jeb Bush is a mentally retarded fraud. We don't quite know what's wrong with Kasich, but he ain't right either.
We'll be voting for Trump. He is the only pro-American in this race, on either side.
BZZZT.
Don't know the difference in "rational" and "rationale"?
Sorry, I stopped reading right there. If the country's going to hell the guys who are most at fault get to go first.
That would be establishment Republicans, you know, those guys who talk a good game and then do jack when they get sworn into office, or worse yet take the same side as uh, those other guys.
Too late Colonel the tribe has spoken. :-)
It is funny that all these conservatives Now say they opposed that war.
