Worse - a war with Russia. Are we now going to shoot down Russian aircraft?
GOPe neocons seem to be chomping at the bit to get another hot war going ... However, this would become WWIII.
The Bush Family and their enablers are a cabal of lunatics.
Well, it was not the Green Room - but perhaps it was ‘Behind the Green Door’ ... ?
“Bush had Putin at his ranch.”
And Putin would have Bush for lunch.
seeing Megyn again, too lazy to change the channel...it was Fallon’s show and just this past September when Carly said she was in a green room with Putin..
zero total recall with my old brain, lol..
Russia’s not attacking Israel for crying out loud. Why in the hell would we want to shoot down Russian planes because of what they’re doing in some craphole country full of people who hate us? Kasich is an unhinged loon. His debate performance tonight was the worst since Admiral Stockdale in ‘92.
I just watched Cavuto ask Cruz again in the post election coverage if he was really serious about NOT bailing out the banks if they failed. Cavuto is talking about the TARP in 2008 that 95% of the public was against. Cavuto kept saying the old W Bush line of it’s too big to fail nonsense.
Here let me educate you. Since I can tell you seriously think it’s something else. Just trying to save you from embarrassment.
This is from Google
The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) is a program of the United States government to purchase assets and equity from financial institutions to strengthen its financial sector that was signed into law by U.S. President George W. Bush on October 3, 2008.

Carly and Rubio had little to offer other than “fact salad.” They answer every question with a random collection of facts that may or may not be relevant to the question or to each other but do serve to show off that they studied the book the night before. They’re like the insecure kid who knows he’s not the smartest one in class trying to impress the teacher by blatantly showing off the effort he put into the homework, as a substitute for having an original thought.
This past summer, I had the same thought of Trump governing for only one term.
He would be going on 74 campaigning for his second term. But in that dynamic one term he would set in motion the necessary difficult, sacrificing steps to "make this country great again'. He would set forth his case, his positions to the American public, making the compelling arguments for agreements. That Trump being forthright and honest would expose the corruption, the smoke and mirrors accounting, statistics of the present administration. Show the lies, the stonewalling that were enacted to misdirect our country.I expect similar progressive, aggressive, effective problem solving he exhibited in the The 1986 Wollman Skating Rink solution.
Trump would present the American populace the policies to right the ship of state. Hence he would pass off to the Vice-president, thus assuring a quasi second term.
I can dream can't I?
Yes, there is a difference, but it helps to understand both. For example, I read Trump’s “Art of the Deal” over 30 years ago. Did several smart things I would not have done without those insights. First, sold underground coal rights to land my husband inherited. Then found a partner and the 3 of us bought a house together using that money, and a few years later repaid the partner’s 10% share $4,500 on a $2,000 investment. Husband and I didn’t have enough income to finance alone. Some time later did the same thing with two partners, whom I subsequently bought out. Asked my mother to loan me my inheritance to do that. Those deals were finance, but deciding how the local economy was changing and where it was good to buy was essential, that’s economics, and increased value has been tremendous as those two neighborhoods are very trendy now but almost slums when we bought. Finally, I was distressed I only had one grandchild, and my 2 kids could not save enough to move out of one bedroom apartments. I had an equity line of credit and gave them each $10,000 toward house downpayment. They each bought a 3 bedroom fixer upper and I now have 4 grandchildren. Trump also has to understand economics, not to mention psychology, to know what deals are worth financing, and he does.
Absolutely spot on. And please don’t leave out Jeb. He was the same, rehearsed like a middle school kid, only less good at it.
The TARP discussion had to be very awkward for Yeb.
Oh yeah no doubt. LOL!
I hope Louie feels better. A sick puppy sounds sad.

It's on his web site. Dept. of Ed.
I only caught the end, but yes, I was not setting a very high bar for talent. :)
