Setting bam bam aside are you seriously contending the behavior of Reagan or Bush was as boorish and crude as Trumps?
If so you have zero credibility.
Profile of a Trump Supporter

A reporter found the woman who yelled at a Trump rally that Ted Cruz is a "pussy" and interviewed her for her further insights, which are as follows:Thanks for the link, G³. I agree this cannot be emphasized enough how ineffectual all of the other candidates are. I think we need to give Trump a new moniker. We need to call him, "Armor of God" Trump, for he will smite our enemies and "Make America Great Again!" |
Thank you.
You’re bilingual Only in your mind. Douche means shower (bath) in French. Most people do it daily. Obviously you don’t.
The word “pussy” used in this context, denotes cowardice, fear, or girlie. A pussy is - and has been for a long time - another word for “cat”. As we all recall, when we were children we called the fearful ones, “fraidy cats”. Cat, like “chicken” has always been associated with fear.
Col. Ralph Peters directly called Obama a “pussy” on FOXe news, denoting obamas fear, or reluctance, to confront our enemies. He was barely chastised and is probably back on FOXe news. I’m sure FOXe news has a “kill button” to blank out “profanity”, but, they didn’t.
Millions of people rent and watch movies with much worse language. I recall in “Top Gun”, they called “Goose” a “pussy” for wimping out on a rematch. Thousands of kis have seen that movie, but I haven’t heard a single parental outcry because of the cat word.
Selective rage is designed and exploited by leftists to play alinsky with their enemies. And then they feign shock when someone besides them use profanity, even when the person did not originate the word.
In today’s world profanity is rampant. You may not use it yourself, but it’s all around you. To backflip over a word like it was still the 1950’s is stupid.

"with the tough issues facing this city, the last thing we need is another pusillanimous mayor"
Donald Trump.
I guess the stiff-spined linguistic Queenbury fans never watched ‘proper’ British Parliament’s proceedings?? Sometimes the right word is a right word!
And, when the gentleman with the bowler hat...if he be a crook or nave....is punched in the nose with a poignant barb, ‘tis to the righteous filthy blacksmith’s utter delight.
Not saying Cruz is not a righteous gentleman....I don’t know him; but I like the man. Trump is not the first coothless word-slinger seeking public office: there’s a number who’ve done good service. I cannot discount skill and heart, based upon up-crusted comportment. Witness the bawdy smith.
There are two sins of profanity. To take The Lord’s name in vain. To curse your mother or father.
The other words, impolite, but not profane.
Time will tell. I think in the case of Trump, we see more publicly.
"If so you have zero credibility." We have real weather here, outside your bubble FRiend ...
I suggest you read the Nixon transcripts and look for [EXPLETIVE DELETED].
"Well under the definition of torture, no it's not. Under the law, torture is excruciating pain that is equivalent to losing organs and systems," Cruz said in response to the direct question. "So under the definition it is not. It is enhanced interrogation,it is vigorous interrogation, but it does not meet the generally recognized definition of torture."
Asked whether he would bring it back, Cruz said he would not "bring it back in any sort of widespread use," noting that he co-sponsored legislation with Sen. John McCain "that would prohibit line officers from employing it, because I think bad things happen when enhanced interrogation is employed at lower levels.
"But when it comes to keeping this country safe, the commander in chief has inherent constitutional authority to keep this country safe," he said. "And so if it were necessary to prevent a city from, say, facing an imminent terrorist attack, you can rest assured that as commander in chief, I would use whatever enhanced interrogation methods we could to keep this country safe."
Other than mentioning the despised name of John McCain in his answer, what other problem do you have with it?
A new Ted Cruz campaign slogan:
No Potty Mouths for President!
Typical of GGG to post something so stupid and supercilious. Give me a break. I stand by my definition.
Wierd behavior? Trump turned an awkward moment into a laugh for everyone except warped minded Cruzers. Pussy is a kitten or small cat. If you insist it has another meaning, you obviously belong to the dirty mind crowd!
teddy the wimpy boy.
