Apparently Trump doesn’t know that Obama will lower taxes on 96% of the nation. I mean, that’s what Obama claims, right? So it MUST be true.

Wow, I didn't realize Trump was a racist.

Obama thinks raising Tax (Rates) is a fairness issue, even if it reduces Revenue to the Government.
At the same time, he wants to increase the Federal Budget by another TRILLION DOLLARS.
And the funniest thing of all is that under the Bush Tax Cuts, the rich pay a larger portion of income taxes than ever.
To: sono
Not that it really matters, but Los Angeles’ old former mayor Richard Riordan, supposedly a Republican but always very much to the left, has endorsed Obama.
Happily, however, the old fellow is pretty much ancient history now so the endorsement by Trump should “trump” Riordan’s endorsement of The One.
To: PowerPro
we vote for presidents, not plans. you’d have to be a sucker to think Obama would cut taxes on anyone “uh...uh...Americans must make sacrifices”
Remember:
“Voters never believed in the middle-class tax cut, because they have never seen anyone get a tax cut,” said Mr. Clinton’s chief poll taker, Stanley Greenberg. “They always believed their taxes would go up whether Bill Clinton became President or George Bush was President.
“They voted for Bill Clinton because they believed he was going to submit a program to change the direction of the country, to improve the economy and to create jobs. They will be mad as hell if their taxes go up and there’s no genuine commitment to change. But if there is, they will be willing to contribute.”

What this and the Forester announcement mean is that at the highest social, financial, and political levels in New York, it has been deemed socially and politically acceptable not to support the Messiah and to support McCain. These are signals being sent, relatively publicly and quite unmistakably to everyone in Our Crowd, Wall Street, and Society. I suspect it means that these people have concluded Obama would be very very bad for their businesses and for their overall power.

She was on CNN last night, giving it good to Wolfe Blitzer and absolutely wiping the floor with a relentlessly hostile Campbell Brown.

She spoke with conviction last night. I think McCain has friends who are coming to him. He will definitely have a new administration that will be centrist and will be good for America and the world.
Think this:
A world with Obama president vs one with McCain president.
An Obama presidency will keep me up at night.

“” Trump should trump Riordans endorsement of The One.””
Wow, that’s an understatement. Outside of LA, no one knows or values the former mayors endorsement. And CA is not in play as flipping to MAC, so his announcement makes a very blue state stay blue.
OTH, Trump’s voice will trumpet the signal to NY & NJ that it’s “okay to vote R” this one time. Plus, the Donald has(had) the Florida Palm Beach presence and many NY’ers hang in FL and are proud of this guy. Plus Trump has his national fans due to his books and tv show. Donald adds money, clout, fundraising, and persuasion.
Likewise, The Rothschild Puma woman endorsement will also be a big deal to that very same crowd and woman Democrats. She is a highly vocal and charming woman that will move thousands of Hillary votes nationwide fro the zero to the Hero. Forget LA, I’d say both endorsements are huge!

I’ve liked Trump ever since he exposed Rosie for what she is.
He’s a hoot!

Ah libs, you gotta love 'em, they are so dumb that they think that attacking the site for a period of time will accomplish ... what? Do they think we'll all say, oh no, Free Republic is down, guess I'll just give up and vote for Obama!I don't think that would be their angle at all. They are just petty, hateful people doing things out of spite.

Thanks for this encouragement. I am considering volunteering and this helps.

I’m pleasantly surprised by this. I’ve been a big fan since his blow out with that kook Rosie.

One liberal endorsing another one. Hardly surprising.

Im praying the Rothschild endorsement will give a boost to McPal with some demonRATS. Do you know when she is coming out to endorse McCain?? I hope she doesnt back out or get cold feet.
She already has, Rose...she's done all the shows on Fox. She was quite charming this morning with the Friends—they loved her. She makes the point that the Dems are way too far left now and that she loves her country first. Meanwhile Mrs. C. is just as lib as Barry, but we'll take her endorsement with a smile. ;)

I have always had respect for the Donald. For example, if he was given the job to have rebuild the Ground Zero area, instead of being under the red tape of the Port Aurthority it would either be finished sooner or be on its way to being finished. The Donald is a take charge guy and people respect him for that. So his endorsement of Mac should come as now suprise.

I wish I could do something.
You can make phone calls. I remember during the '04 election, the Bush campaign would send you a list of people to call in other states. Here in NYC, we headed over to NJ in the final weeks to knock on doors and make calls. Believe it or not, there is a grassroots McCain Manhattan group with over 1000 volunteers already campaigning here in the city.
