GOP candidates slam Trump over Putin praise (Trump really scaring me-OK with killing journalists?)
Fox News ^ | Dec. 18, 2015 | Barnini Chakraborty

What started as a seemingly mild admiration between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin took an uncomfortable turn Friday when the GOP White House hopeful seemed to defend the Russian president’s strong-arm tactics – and dismiss his alleged killing of journalists and others who cross him.

People will not be voting for Trump because he instils trust. They will vote for him to send a big FU to the DC elite.

Abraham Lincoln replied when asked why he made his worst enemy the Secretary of War. The best way to get rid of an enemy is to make him a friend (or words to that effect)

Puti thinks Trump is smaller than he really is! Puti is complimentary, but thinks that will cause Trump to let down his guard. Wonder if Puti has read the Art of the Deal?

Of course only Trump cares.

God, I hope he doesn’t die or something. You’d be lost.

Military kicks Geraldo out of Iraq

From Chris Plante
Monday, March 31, 2003 Posted: 5:05 PM EST (2205 GMT)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Fox News Channel correspondent Geraldo Rivera is being expelled from Iraq for broadcasting details about future U.S. troop movements in the country, according to the Pentagon.

A primary obligation of the hundreds of reporters traveling with coalition forces in Iraq is to refrain from disclosing sensitive information about military operations.

The veteran correspondent, who was temporarily accompanying the Army's 101st Airborne Division, violated the rule during a live broadcast on Fox television.

"He was with a (U.S.) military unit in the field and the commander felt that he had compromised operational information by reporting the position and movements of troops," Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman told Reuters.

After the disclosure, members of the 101st Airborne were in the process of escorting Rivera out of the combat zone, a Pentagon official told CNN.

"He will be dropped at the Kuwaiti border," the official said.

Fox News in New York had no immediate comment, according to Reuters.

In the broadcast, Rivera instructed his photographer to tilt the camera down to the sand in front of his feet so that he could draw a map.

The Fox correspondent then outlined a map of Iraq, and showed the relative location of Baghdad and his location with the 101st Airborne unit.

Rivera then continued with his sandy diagram to illustrate where the 101st would be going next.

"He went down in the sand and drew where the forces are going," said a stunned senior military official. "He gave away the big picture stuff."

Has Putin ever had a dead girl end up in his office?

If he did, MSNBC would want him to host a morning show on their network, and get him a ditzy blonde as a co-host. They could call it "The Morning Vlad" - or something...

'Trump's response was, "we kill a lot of people too". '

Its called the truth. I find it refreshing. Nothing changes until it is acknowledged as existing. Trump is an acknowledgement monster.

What "people," exactly, do "we" kill? Explain.

Not hero worship. Just an honest assessment of the man as opposed to your close minded refusal to asses things objectively. And speaking of weak minds, I still remember it like it was yesterday, when you insisted to me in another post that building a border wall was something that was literally impossible. Weak minded indeed.

>>Putin is almost in the same league as the Clintons when it comes to knocking folks off.<<

Search for the “clinton body count.” Vince Foster and many more.

Isn’t it great that there isn’t a statute of limitations on murder? Think of what a Trump Justice Department could help clean up! :-)

I bet Obama has taken out a few people, Breitbart comes to mind—and that reporter who crashed his car (drone strike) when he got wind of something. I bet their are more—a lot more. I bet they are going to try to take Trump out with a hit. He better beware. The classic double hit—Nut shoots guy—then another kills the patsy so he can never tell his story (hey it worked with Kennedy).

Hey: I have no problem with killing “so called” journalists.
A TRAITOR by any other name is still a TRAITOR.
A FIFTH COLUMNIST is a traitor, you shoot’em.

“Ever think it might have been you they disliked? I have visited there along with much of eastern Europe and was treated warmly. It was pretty amazing. I got more snark in Germany than I did in Russia.
And universally was treated according to the respect I showed.

It was you.”

Your ignorance is outstanding, but is easily surpassed by your total lack of knowledge of History.

A lot of the hate of Putin originates with Jews who nurse ancient resentments of Russia over the tsarist pogroms.

The mere thought of a nationalist and Christian Russia drives them insane.

Before Putin put a stop to the queers over here going to Russia, adopting Russian infant orphans and taking them back here and playing their homosexual with them, including sharing them with their buddies, the members of the media loved him. Since he stopped their homosexual buddies from buggering Russian infant boys, he is an ogre.
