I don’t remember the WSJ editorial “ Obama’s closeness with Al Sharpton reveals lack of character”.

It was printed in white ink, which is racist.

An exchange of insults--like pre-adolescent confrontations in a playground--is not an issue for anyone really serious about an American future, to get upset over. That the Journal would seek to focus attention on that exchange--and draw moral conclusions from that exchange, antagonistic to those who have the sense not to comment on that exchange--is to take journalistic absurdity into the clouds of really confused analysis.

Let me suggest that the Journal focus on something that concerns the U.S. Military, that is 1,000 times as important as Trump returning John McCain's insult, with one of his own. What is that?

In recent weeks and months there have been repeated threats from America haters, against our military personnel & their families. Yet the Administration still has Marines & others, serving as potential targets in "gun free zones." Does anyone reading this not believe that that is the sort of outrage that the Journal ought to be concerned with--not an exchange of insults?

Will anyone defend the mental priorities of the Journal staff, in this situation? They, not Senator Cruz, who has a sense of proportion, need to be the butt of condemnation & ridicule.

Hate bait.

They’re just trying to goad Cruz into criticizing Trump.

How about “I listened closely to what Trump said and he did not say McCain was not a war hero. However, this is a free country and Mr. Trump has the right to say whatever he believes”.

Character? Are you kidding me? Hillary has no character. 90% on the Republican field has no character! This is ridiculous!

Donald Trump Tops Third GOP Poll This Month

This is a war, it's the grass roots tea party folks against the GOPe. Sitting on your butt, kissing McCain a$$ hoping Trump fails in the real war being fougth right fricken now. is not leadership, is not displaying character and it is not smart either.

Check out Ted Cruz's facebook, he is being ripped to pieces for kissing McCain butt.

By the WSJ logic, Gerge HW Bush has no character as he considers Bill Clinton his son.

For the first time in my lifetime, we have the prospect of a Third Party ticket that could win! I think the country is so fed up with both parties and their games that sell us out, that a Cruz/ Trump or Trump/Cruz ticket would be dynamite!

If the GOP keeps messing with them, I wish they would just declare Third Party and go for it. You can bet they will make a move at just the right time. It is going to be something to see!

WSJ cannot stand actual conservatism.

WSJ is a corporatist, law breaking, anti-freedom cabal. Karen Eliot House’s editorial the other day appeared to have been completely ghost written by the House of Saud.

WSJ can STFU.

Paul Gigot is an embarrassment.

Robert L. Bartley is rolling over in his grave.
