Howz it feel to know nothing about the topic you’re talking about?
Even Dr. Ben can’t replace those fried brain cells
That's why we love him.
I hope Lee, Cruz, Paul, Rubio and all consistent and principled conservatives around the world are taking notes.
Weaving in an attack on Trump on just about any question tonight is neither principled or conservative. Cruz gets a question on CUBA and smears Trump with it? Pathetic performance by Cruz. CNN pundits seem to agree. Nobody talking about Cruz.
Web Hubble check lips
You would be the resident expert on that topic, for sure.
No, everyone don’t get a trophy. Trump won...yukyuk
So there ya have it.
There are some very good studies of the BR vs AM strategies if you’re interested.
The Germans helped shape that strategy with their attacks on British cities. And the US participated in the strikes against Dresden and Hamburg.
The bombing of Dresden was an Anglo/American aerial bombing attack on the city of Dresden, the capital of the German state of Saxony, that took place during the Second World War in the European Theatre. Germany would be forced to surrender three months later. In four raids between 13 and 15 February 1945, 722 heavy bombers of the British Royal Air Force (RAF) and 527 of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) dropped more than 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices on the city. The bombing and the resulting firestorm destroyed over 1,600 acres (6.5 km2) of the city centre.[2] An estimated 22,700[3] to 25,000[4] people were killed. Three more USAAF air raids followed, two occurring on 2 March aimed at the city's railroad marshaling yard and one small raid on 17 April aimed at industrial areas.
Over the course of ten days, the RAF and the 8th Air Force devastate Hamburg with heavy bombing. The attack, named “Operation Gomorrah,” will leave more than 13 square miles destroyed and kill more civilians than the Germans’ entire Blitz over Great Britain in April 1942. The British conducted night raids and the USAAF daylight raids.
Operation Gomorrah killed 42,600 people, left 37,000 wounded and caused some one million German civilians to flee the city. The city's labour force was reduced by ten percent. Approximately 3,000 aircraft were deployed, 9,000 tons of bombs were dropped and over 250,000 homes and houses were destroyed.
No subsequent city raid shook Germany as did that on Hamburg; documents show that German officials were thoroughly alarmed and there is some indication from later Allied interrogations of Nazi officials that Hitler stated that further raids of similar weight would force Germany out of the war. The industrial losses were severe, Hamburg never recovered to full production, only doing so in essential armaments industries (in which maximum effort was made). Figures given by German sources indicate that 183 large factories were destroyed out of 524 in the city and 4,118 smaller factories out of 9,068 were destroyed. Other losses included damage to or destruction of 580 industrial concerns and armaments works, 299 of which were important enough to be listed by name. Local transport systems were completely disrupted and did not return to normal for some time. Dwellings destroyed amounted to 214,350 out of 414,500.
On the night of 9–10 March ("Operation Meetinghouse"), 334 B-29s took off to raid with 279 of them dropping 1,665 tons of bombs on Tokyo. The bombs were mostly the 500-pound (230 kg) E-46 cluster bomb which released 38 napalm-carrying M-69 incendiary bomblets at an altitude of 2,000–2,500 ft (610–760 m). The M-69s punched through thin roofing material or landed on the ground; in either case they ignited 3–5 seconds later, throwing out a jet of flaming napalm globs. A lesser number of M-47 incendiaries was also dropped: the M-47 was a 100-pound (45 kg) jelled-gasoline and white phosphorus bomb which ignited upon impact.
In the first two hours of the raid, 226 of the attacking aircraft unloaded their bombs to overwhelm the city's fire defenses. The first B-29s to arrive dropped bombs in a large X pattern centered in Tokyo's densely populated working class district near the docks in both Koto and Chuo city wards on the water; later aircraft simply aimed near this flaming X. The individual fires caused by the bombs joined to create a general conflagration, which would have been classified as a firestorm but for prevailing winds gusting at 17 to 28 mph (27 to 45 km/h). Approximately 15.8 square miles (4,090 ha) of the city was destroyed and some 100,000 people are estimated to have died. A grand total of 282 of the 339 B-29s launched for "Meetinghouse" made it to the target, 27 of which failed to return due to enemy action, mechanical failure, or being caught in updrafts caused by the massive fires.
“Megan now running an extensive panel discussion devoted exclusively to how Donald encourages violence at his rallies. Just tiresome. Back to CNN.”
No kidding? Not surprising. Anyway, I had to listen to the beginning of the debate AUDIO ONLY via my Satellite radio in my car. That was an interesting perspective - and via audio, Trump won. I think there were other Americans like me, driving home after a long day at work, and could not tune in via their big screen TV. Only Audio. On the audio level, Trump won.
Then I got home and tuned into CNN. Haven’t changed the channel yet. So I didn’t see FOX, but no surprise what you tell me about Kelly the whore and the GOPe toadies on FOX where there are just too many of them. Now I have my “heads up” not to even bother to change the channel to FOX at this juncture.
On the visual level via the boob tube, I second the AUDIO victory, the visual went to Trump as well.
I loved his focus on behalf of the American worker. I know I have already said that in other posts in this thread - but I think strategically the timing was perfect and on the point for those tuning in. Trump has a great shot of winning Ohio. Winner take all. Cruz may have been able to talk about issues - but he didn’t talk about those issues that strategically were so very important at this juncture in the election cycle. Trump was smarter than Cruz, in that he did.
You drop out and I can win? What a slogan
He was a Debate Champion ? I don't see it
Therein lies his strength, and his attraction.
Jewish vote? They're like 2 percent of the population, only 1 percent of it is probably going to vote best case scenario, and of that 1 percent, most are democrats.
Rubio will be gone, Kasich is a darkhorse, Cruz is still in the race and Donald has a Looooong way to go
Poor Dana Perino dressed in black ready to punch somebody.
For that reason alone, you vote for whom ever the GOP nominee is over Clinton/Sanders.
Check the numbers. There are about 1400 delegates left. If Cruz loss oh and fl, there are 1240. Cruz needs about 900 of those. He’s already behind in Illinois and n. Carolina and missouri, so that means 900 out of 1100.
He might get that if trump dies or he finds Harry potter’s magic wand, but that’s his only hope.
Looks like Cruz won another one
if you squint real hard.
I’m currently reading Roger Stone’s book “The Clinton War on Women”. I suggest everyone read it and pass it along. Stone has a chapter about Hubbell as Chelsea’s father, with pictures and information. Haven’t got to the part yet, but I’m not dismissing the possibilities.
