Atlanta Fed Waits Until The Close To Reveal 0.6% Q4 GDP Estimate
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3384225/posts
GDP growth just a wee bit over 1/2 a percent for a full quarter. And the 4th quarter is the all-important Christmas season. Higher employment of temps. More shopping. I heard once that over 70% of durable goods are sold in that quarter.

The Cruz eligibility cage fight blazes on while Cruz seems unable to win this debate intellectually.
Two main points in the current debate:
1. Original intent appears settled — father determines natural born status when overseas.
2. Cruz defenders claimed that the 14th Amendment redefined natural born status, but so far that’s been oblitered here and in Post 14 of that thread:

AZ State Rep Calls For Constitutional Convention On Cruz Birth Issue
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3384579/posts
Further down I suggested a modest constitutional amendment [easier and, with rapid communications, also faster than a convention ...]
Amend to have English-speaking parents with Canadian citizenship also help qualify natural born status. Why not? It’s not some radical Islamo-nut nation like Indonesia after all. Even Quebec is not so bad either.
Cruz should not turn too openly for such a process. It would make him look weak. But this is a good way to flush out who wants to use rules and process to disqualify him.
In the meantime ...
Ted Cruz’s fmr. professor says Cruz is a hypocrite on the Constitution VIDEO
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3384690/posts
Thursday following FBN’s broadcast of the Republican presidential debate, Harvard constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe attacked Sen. Ted Cruz ... for his stated on reasoning for his eligibility to run for president of the United States.
According to Tribe, Cruz applies a double standard to his interpretation of the Constitution, to which he deemed Cruz to be a ‘constitutional opportunist’ and a ‘hypocrite.’
‘I’ve done a lot of historical research on it, and so have a lot of other people, and the best evidence seems to be that what they meant... ‘
[snip]
Professor Laurence Tribe:
“The funny thing is, that the kind of guy Cruz is, he’s always been this way. When he was my student he was this way. He’s always said the Constitution always means the same thing that it meant when it was adopted. That’s why he made this funny joke to Trump, you know, saying, the Constitution didn’t change since last September. Well, he thinks it didn’t change since 1788 when it comes to gays and, you know, women and other things. But when it comes to his own ambition, he’s suddenly becomes what he accuses me of being, and it’s a pretty true accusation, a judicial activist. That’s not the guy he is normally.”

Donald Trump Ramps up Attacks on Ted Cruz, Says ‘He’s a Nasty Guy’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3384817/posts
“I don’t think Ted Cruz has a great chance, to be honest with you,” Trump told ABCNews Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos in an interview on “This Week” Sunday.
“Look, the truth is, he’s a nasty guy. He was so nice to me. I mean, I knew it. I was watching. I kept saying, ‘Come on Ted. Let’s go, okay.’ But he’s a nasty guy. Nobody likes him. Nobody in Congress likes him. Nobody likes him anywhere once they get to know him. He’s a very — he’s got an edge that’s not good. You can’t make deals with people like that and it’s not a good thing. It’s not a good thing for the country. Very nasty guy.”

When he served as deputy attorney general, now Attorney General Eric Holder gave a “neutral leaning positive” recommendation that led to President Bill Clinton’s pardoning of gazillionaire fugitive Marc Rich, who was on the lam in Switzerland hiding from federal charges of fraud, evading more than $48 million in taxes, racketeering and trading oil with Iran in violation of a U.S. embargo. Holder also had a role in the 1999 Clinton pardons of 16 Puerto Rico independence terrorists — members of the bomb-happy FALN ...

Trump’s Shockingly Frank Confession about Abortion ...
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3385066/posts
During the first Republican presidential debate, Trump explained that he “evolved” on the issue at some unknown point in the last 16 years. “Friends of mine years ago were going to have a child, and it was going to be aborted. And it wasn’t aborted. And that child today is a total superstar, a great, great child. And I saw that. And I saw other instances,” Trump said. “I am very, very proud to say that I am pro-life.”
When the Daily Caller’s Jamie Weinstein asked Trump if he would have become pro-life if that child had been a loser instead of a “total superstar,” Trump replied: “Probably not, but I’ve never thought of it. I would say no, but in this case it was an easy one because he’s such an outstanding person.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
So Trump admits that what turned him around on abortion was seeing that an unwanted child turned out to be a success. That was flipped around to make him appear evil.
Here’s the thing — ALL abortionists are evil. I was too, more evil than Trump in fact when I first entered this forum:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3385066/posts?page=58#58
And I’ll add this too — a reformed former abortionist is like a person who quit smoking — he understands the evil of the other side, knows its language better, and can be more of a zealot over time than someone who never was pro-choice-to-kill.
A lot of shockers this morning ...
