The Donald is a joke as a political leader, and as a POTUS candidate...ludicrous.

However, on the clarion call on the BC issue...from a man of his stature...he has done a service few Presidents have ever aspired to.

Let's love The Donald, for this service alone, even if we love him for no other reason.

Our great grandchildren, 200 years from now, will read of him as a HERO.

The Ryan budget is a brave and bold attempt to control the increase in the national debt. Nothing more. We need a balanced budget amendment NOW. Right Now. If we balance the budget THIS YEAR... only TWO friggin generations of American s will suffer to repay the debt. This is serious. Congress can't stop itself anymore. The best they can do is the Ryan kick the can down the road. Time to bust up the Union and start over... THE USA can't be fixed if the best and brightest think the Ryan budget is a solution...

Yes sir, no time like the present.

The clock is ticking louder and louder.

The USA must act now, for the sake of the whole dam world.

Politicians got us here, voters put them in office. Now it’s time to clean up the mess they’ve made.

He said that he'd tax Chinese imports 25%.

Massive consumer price inflation, ala Smoot Hawley, as stuff po' foke buy will increase in price by 25%. Not too smart, Donald...

I just wish we could be more aggressive and do this quicker because if not, we’re going to be beholden to other countries who will own us. They will own our debt.

Sorry, darling Sarah. They already own our debt. When they demand repayment, they will own your beautiful... well, er, this is a family forum so, well, you know...

This is just sickening...the entire dog and pony show, it's a joke to even watch it. The Reps and the Dems..two wolves deciding on how to carve up the US sheep for dinner.

Were is the stimulus money we were supposed to get back ...flippin' 700 billion !(yea..now that is a big amount ain't it)! Pay down the darn debt with that jokers..but no..gotta go for the same old BS song and dance.

These international crooks grabbing and giving away our children's money disgust me. Pay us back our d@mn money and stop the games!

The American people are scr@wed.

Personally, I feel Trump is a New York progressive in the same way Hannity is a progressive. I like Buddy Roemer, he’s a good businessman and successful in politics, too.

Why can’t you have a rational discussion not be insane with emotions? I really want to know. This is what is wrong with politics today, no one can have a rational discussion. Every one’s got to cuss.

A good conservative plan would have the budget balanced before 2030. A child born today will have graduated college by the time Ryan’s plan balances.

Right on. And since nothing locks Congress in for more than a year or so, the budget would probably never be balanced under his plan.

A good conservative plan would not roll back spending to the bloated year 2008 and claim that it is cutting deeply into the size of government, not talk about "across the board" cuts. A good conservative plan would not take 1/2 the budget off the table for discussion. A good conservative plan would address the areas that need to be eliminated or cut back severely, not contend that reductions can take place without any layoffs, only thru attrition. Bottom line: Paul Ryan's "path to prosperity" is a farce. It is just an alternative big-spending plan put on the table to avoid discussion of any true reform and giving cover to all the big-government RINOS.

"This is what is wrong with politics today, no one can have a rational discussion."

Denial of the intensity of your situation is not rational...it only works for ostriches.

Why do people like you insist that politics in he US is still like a game of football between two sides of one team were no-one gets hurt?

If our children's future as slaves doesn't bother you then why the h@ll are you on this forum?

This is not a game and there is no room for people who don't get it.

Well, I just trust God and let it all rest with Him. It’s not worth losing your soul over anything in life. I really don’t hate anyone, not here, not anywhere.

Yes, being a demagogue over the past century is considered “smart”.

You show me a conservative who has the balls that Trump has, who can control the MSM like Trump can, who will get in Obama’s face like Trump is and who can finance his own election and we'll talk. Until then I will ignore your repetitive posts starting NOW. I mean that in a FRiendly way, : )

It sure is and we should free the economy from the stranglehold of Federal Regulations. Our only hope is to make enough money to pay the bills.

“Obama is an honest communist.”

Hardly, if he was a honest communist he would say he is a communist. He’s manipulative because he is not homest at all. They weasled their way into our system with all that social democracy crapola and government give aways.

I would consider Trump if he supported a fair or flat tax. Promised to seal the border and enforce existing laws. Had a real plan to reduce government by 33% in four years and a handful of other key issues.
Not that I have anything against him srirring things up a little. Otherwise, Im not going to vote for him for Pres.

“Paul Ryan’s proposal is good conservatism at work.

Trump is for big government. He even supported universal health care.

Work to get conservatives elected, NOT liberals.

NOT Donald Trump... NOT now ... NOT ever!”

Bump that to the tippy top!

Trump is an opportunist...just like so many of the wannabes.

It’s so nice to “see” you! ;o)

Who told you that Trump is a conservative? He’s an opportunist in the best tradition of opportunists.

I put him in the same category as Newt.
