Presidential candidate Donald Trump set off another political firestorm Friday after implying that President George W. Bush was to blame for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, drawing the ire of his Republican rivals.

Okay, I apologize, but some posters, a few, are serious about that kind of thing.
I lately had a few rounds with some people about that sort of thing.
It’s the Republican party bosses who regard conservatives as foolish and are embarrassed by them - according to Rush.
After the Romney loss the RNC has a huge pow wow to map out a new strategy, and that strategy was to pander to the LGBT crowd, and the illegals. The feminazi’s were in there too I think. It is them who decided ‘NO MORE CONSERVATIVES!’
They didn’t just leave us, they turned their back on us and conservative principles. We put a majority in this time with the specific mandate to stop the 0bama agenda, and reverse it where ever possible. What did we get? Nothing but an 0bama rubber stamp Congress.
You should look to Karl Rove and Reinse Preibus and John McCain for splitting up the party.
ok- I boo boo'ed the wording although I bet many could weed thru it. So reword it as
'built a fortune through hard work and determination [plus has] love for the veterans.'
BTW-- regarding Trump --isn't all that true?
Reagan did have responsibility and took it for the bombing, leadership means you got to take the good with the bad... and in his statements regarding the bombing stated the exact same thing.
9/11 was certainly convenient for the implementation of this plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_for_the_New_American_Century
At the bottom of the link is the “Signatories to Statement of Principles” which includes Jeb Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Scooter Libby, and others.
were talking rumps description of the Bush Adminstration here
obama DOES think he reigns BTW ...... but this WASNT about that particular feckless puke.
how about we bring chris cristie into the frame just for giggles??
No But SERIOUSLY rump called it Bushes Reign..
perhaps that was a PROJECTION re his lifelong wish to be coronated???
ya suppose??
241 - just to be accurate.
see how easy it was to FINALLY add that one omitted word???
the tallys not compiled...on WHAT the would be candidate from NYC would actually support..as POTUS... as yet...but you can bet your bankroll he’s not being very forthright about his claims
guys who run their mouthes the way he does.....very rarely are
making assumptions...just never pans out very well
Was Jeb governor in FL where the guys learned to fly?
Anyway, all I have to say is Trump better put his money where his mouth is. This government is so big it will take new directors in all the departments on the fed level AND the state or regional level, IMHO. There should be so many people being fired that it will take at least two years to vet the applicants, especially in the DOJ, VA, CIA and FBI.
As for it happening under Bush’s watch, even though it was so outside the box, it happened because, have to say it, they weren’t listening to emails or phone calls? Bush became President and it was 7 months afterwards. Is Trump preparing NOW so he is prepared on day one?
Having said that, I hope if Trump becomes president he remembers that if he gets to appoint a justice to the supreme court that they define the Constitution according to the standards of the writers as does SCJ Scalia, my hero. Period.
Positivity..... is what got OBAMA elected
positively WRONG..... but very full of HOPE..... and CHANGE
obama was the ONE..
Rump is The Other One
count on it!!
Those were my thoughts when Donald said "well he was the president at the time."
I thought, maybe we will finally get to the bottom of this.
I have always wondered why there were so few in the buildings on a work day. I think a president Trump will get to the bottom of this and a bunch of other stuff, like were obamit was born.
Dubya didn’t keep us safe from an invasion on our southern border. In fact he tried to get the Congress to jam amnesty down our throats.
But who/what is your alternate candidate to win in 2016? Do we put up a candidate who will get leveled in the general? You hate Trump and are entitled to your views-- but who/what is your alternative to win 2016?
The nexus of all these articles about the WTC, Bush, Trump.

Bloomberg TV’s Stephanie Ruhle had started asking Mr. Trump a question by pointing out that
Mr. Bush had to stand in front of America after 9/11 and President Obama had to do the
same after the school shootings at Sandy Hook.
“Help us understand who Donald Trump is as a man - I need to know that you will make us
feel safe and you will make us feel proud,” she said.
“I think I have a bigger heart than all of [them],” Mr. Trump said. “I think I’m much
more competent than all of [them]. When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you
want - the World Trade Center came down during his time.”
“Hold on - you can’t blame George Bush for that,” she said.
“He was president, okay?” Mr. Trump said. “Don’t blame him or don’t blame him, but he was
president. The World Trade Center came down during his reign. If you look at Sandy Hook,
those people are still begging for help. It’s a disaster, and it’s a disaster all over the
place. Government has proven to be a disaster during the Obama administration.”
“I think I have a bigger heart than all of [them], and I think I’m much more competent
than them, and we will be great again,” he said. “This country will be great again. We
have tremendous potential, we have tremendous people - what we need is a leader. We don’t
have a leader.”
Yep.
Iowa Governor Terry Branstad, first elected governor in 1983, is as much of what we now call a RINO as almost anyone, but he does not have the visceral hatred for conservatives that McCain-Romney-Rove-Jeb cabal has.
At least when the NE liberal Republicans had disdain for unwashed middle America, the NE liberals had some electoral success. Now the best they can do is fool people in scattered parts of the country.
His attack on Bush tells me that he is prepared to take a hit himself if he FAILS to ship out JIHAD ASAP. I’m talking take the oath and clear the table on DAY 1 for a jihad clean out crew. Our cities are now wall-to-wall jihad. I’m thinking his wife surely gets it on this topic...
