Apparently the ‘blog’ isn’t accepting comments.

I just tried to post a comment and the page is just spinning it’s wheels trying to ‘load’.

Well, what does anyone here think the odds are that last night Hillary would accuse Fred of saying Cubans are terrorists. Then today a newspaper in Florida would print his original statement as a explanation.

Headlines I’m sure that will get repeated and repeated on Florida TV, for the Cuban population to see and hear.

Nothing to see here........

Go to fred’s blog and look at the date of the original posting. The 28th. He makes it out to be like FDT rushed to his laptop and typed this up as an apology. Total bs by the author.

I wonder if they are in concert here with this garbage?

She needs to work on her reading comprehension.

Clara Lou, this has nothing to do with the B**ch's reading comprehension. She knows exactly what he said, and exactly what he meant. It has to do with her knowing that she can distort it in a way to make Fred look bad, and the lapdog media will go along with her.

She's got her minions going over with a fine tooth comb every word, every gesture, every facial expression, every eyebrow raise, every blink that Fred does, so that it can be twisted to her advantage.

And if the media can take a non-story about Mitt Romney's dog riding on the roof of his car 25 years ago and blow it all out of proportion, you can be assured that they're going to be her willing accomplices and go after the biggest threat (Fred) to The Hag's presidential aspirations.

I have found, in my experience with the Houston Comical, that so-called “newspapers” don’t necessarily keep up with the news or sort the news from the chaff.

You’re right about that, poor Jimmah never gets the credit for the lovely Mariel boatlift. There are just so many, many other things to point to with Jimmah!

Don’t know why it posted 4 times because I only clicked it once.

Oh well. If you’re going to make a point, might as well do it big!

Original remarks?

I think this is what the above is referencing.

Pretty stupid to suggest that Cuban immigrants -- illegal or not -- are coming here to cause us harm. Hell, they're the only latin-american group that vote SOLIDLY republican. (Bush got 84% of the C/A vote in 2000.)

Old Fred apparently wants to jeopardize that support. Brilliant political move.

I understand that, that’s why the supposed first statement isn’t given. There isn’t a mention of Hillary either.

Just the insinuation that this is a explaination for some sinister remarks about Cubans.

In other words all just a unintended accident, like when all the stars line up.

Fred knows very well the consequences of a popular candidate entering the race against the beast. I have no doubt he is completely prepared for her and will strike back with precise, and devastating, force. Get out the popcorn cuz this is going to one hell of an election cycle!!!!

She is researching ALL the people she thinks might get in her way. She really is an evil empire. She will do everything, stop at nothing, say anything, bribe anybody, destroy anyone to get the power she thinks she deserves.

"He needs to immediately make a YouTube video, ala the riposte, cigar in hand, to Michael Moore. I have every confidence that Fred is too smart to let the B**ch put him on the defensive. They’ve been on opposing sides all the way back to Watergate (which, being a seasoned citizen, I remember quite vividly)."



Fred doesn't have to ... it appears Her Thighness has done his work for him.

This is not gonna help him in Florida. And Florida will be strategically significant in this primary season. A few weeks before the vote you can expect his opponents to start running adds about this. I just hope this doesn’t hurt the GOP as a whole with hispanics. Hillary is diabolical and knows very well what she’s doing.

That’s great that the legal immigrants vote conservative. Do you think the Cubans here are for open borders?

I’m surprised a Mitt Romney fan, of all people, couldn’t see through this hit piece.
