Erick Erickson knows what it’s like to be in the crosshairs over an intemperate remark. An influential conservative blogger and former CNN contributor, he’s taken heat over the years for accusing a Supreme Court justice of bestiality and joking that God “had a sense of humor” when he created feminists.

So his initial reaction when told Friday about Donald Trump’s latest controversial remarks was one of puzzlement. But by the end of the evening, he was leading the charge against the Republican frontrunner over his attitude towards women.

Erickson had just returned from a family dinner to the Grand Hyatt hotel in Atlanta, across from where supporters of his website RedState.com were meeting for an annual conference. Several contributors pulled him aside and told him that Trump had just made a seeming reference to menstruation when complaining about a female Fox News host’s questions during Thursday’s debate....

It didn’t cost Trump a thing, but he did save a bunch on Jet Fuel.

Erick the white knight has now thrown his two menstruation imagining deviants under the bus. He is Chivalrous to a fault!

Katie Pavlich and Mary Ham. Fox news contributors who decided to slime up a bloody Vagina scare as an excuse to ban Trump.

I am guessing they will be getting some unwanted attention now that Erick has decided he will not go down alone for this wherever stuff.

She now claims to have had the flu all day leading to the debate to explain her sour puss (face I mean whooaa).

I’ve had that flu before too, usually after a fun Friday night!

“Sour puss”...

No need to bring her feminine hygiene issues into the conversation!

The controversial non-remark that’s overshadowing the expressed and aggressive, organized GOP-e agenda against Trump.

Trump is a Nationalist, a Patriot and loves our Country. It is why he is running for President and putting up with the slings and arrows coming his way on a daily basis from the likes of the MSM, the GOPe, Dems, and certain Conservative purists who insist their candidates be as pure as the driven snow.

Unreasonable Donald Trump hatred blinds some Freepers to the honesty and greatness of this man. No one was excited about the primary process until Trump joined the race. Now everyone is excited and 24 million people watched this first Republicaln debate, primarily because they wanted to see and hear The Donald. God bless Donald Trump for reinvigorating us all and giving us some hope once again in the political process.

Wow you can’t make this stuff up. Oh the irony.

The moral corruption of the Sisterhood is absolute - and their deepest pride.

Thanks . Did you see this video. It says Obama and Hillary are worried that Trump might win because Trump as president will prosecute both of them and more:

here is some of the lead in text for that video:

Why Obama and Hillary must stop Donald Trump at all costs

For once, the powerful socialist cabal and the corrupt crony capitalists are scared. I’ve never seen them this outraged... this vicious... this motivated... this coordinated. NEVER in all my years in politics, have I seen anything like the way the mad dogs of hell have been unleashed on Donald Trump.

Ross Perot did the same thing. He jumped a bunch of reporters one day for being so thin skinned. And he talked about all the things Trump is talking about. At one time he was 35% in the polls. The media did everything they could to take him out. Then he flamed out.

Since then he and his son have made a few billion off the government. I like Trump’s abrasive attitude but I’m not going to get too excited. If he flames out you’ll see him start to make a lot of money off government contracts.

I’ve always read lots of posts telling everyone there is no perfect candidate so we must vote republican no matter who it is. Those same posters are now saying we can’t vote for Trump because he’s not perfect.
