yw RitaOK.

Just to clear up the time line, I saw the pic on twitter right after it was posted.

I then posted it here, and pinged Coulter to it.

Some time later, she posted the pic on twitter exclaiming her appreciation, liking the pic.

So weather she saw it here from my ping or on twitter, I don't know.

I imagine she saw it on twitter and then re posted it there.

Not that any of that matters...heh

I don't think she checks her pings here as much as she used to.

LOL. Quite a stretch. Trump plays golf with Tom Brady.

The high society types who are his customers, who he drinks wine with and smokes cigars with, whom he plays rounds of golf with on the weekends, those are his puppeteers... It’s not money, it’s social status, it’s power. The man is a very dangerous individual to place into the highest power of the land, especially with the record he has. To ignore the warning signs is foolish.

You have a serious, almost fatal case of TDS. So you prefer the donor class puppets. Donors like the Club for Growth, Goldman-Sachs, and rich hedge fund sugar daddies.

Very cool details. I really didn’t know Ann was/is a member of FR. Thank goodness, she’s on our side. She is brilliant, and all together totally bizarre. Thanks very much, Sync!

I would say you are the one with Trump Delusion Syndrome...

I prefer candidates whom have a background I can trust.

Cruz’s donors are not “the donor class” rich hedge funds etc, they are grassroots donors. You apparently want a complete unknown rather than a solid conservative we know and can trust...

Open Secrets--Cruz campaign donors

Hedge-Fund Magnate Robert Mercer Emerges as a Generous Backer of Cruz--Mr. Mercer, a reclusive Long Islander who started at I.B.M. and made his fortune using computer patterns to outsmart the stock market, emerged this week as a key early bankroller of Mr. Cruz’s surprisingly fast campaign start. He is believed to be the main donor behind a network of four “super PACs” supporting Mr. Cruz that reported raising $31 million just a few weeks into his campaign.

Since he began campaigning for the 2012 Senate race in Texas, Cruz raised about $18 million, not including any Mercer money. His single biggest donor has been the Club for Growth, a conservative advocacy group funded by wealthy contributors including industrialists Charles and David Koch, private-equity baron J.W. Childs and tech entrepreneur Peter Thiel. The group has given Cruz $706,000 since 2011, according to the Center for Responsive Politics

The $69,000 from Goldman is one of the largest sums employees from the Wall Street firm have donated to a single candidate during the last few years. The firm has given money to well over 100 candidates since 2012, but only six got more from Goldman than Cruz — and two of them were Mitt Romney and Barack Obama. Heidi Cruz, the candidate’s wife, manages investments for wealthy clients at Goldman’s Houston office, so personal connections may have helped raise the money. (Heidi Cruz announced she’ll be taking a leave of absence from Goldman during her husband’s campaign.)

The following is not your reply?

Pataki - Radical Islam mention. Obama has divided us. Won't cali it what it is, neither will Hillary. Trump demonizes millions of Americans with a laugh. GOP needs a uniter, not a divider. Blah blah. So so.

it is always people with whom you do not agree that you suggest they find another forum. You may throw Jim’s name in there...but the issue you take is they are not of the same opinion as you. I thought you had stopped doing this after you left for awhile and then came back. There was much to be learned but alas.....oft times it comes to nada

To: Does so

Oh I’m sorry. You’re right. I was repeating what Pataki said. It wasn’t what I thought so I did not recognize it.

I’m sorry to cause you so much effort, having to look up what I posted. I had a zillion posts on this thread. I knew that was not something I thought, so I falsely said it was not my post.

Seriously?.....I mean SERIOUSLY!

If you care to read her posts you will see it’s not enough for her to dislike a candidate.....
...she resorts to disparaging the FR forum.....and insinuating a poster is a retard.
Defend her all you want.....
But if you would bother to read others remarks to her, I was not alone.

I get that you don’t want me here, you’ve made that obvious through the years.
....btw I never left)
FR is my forum of choice ......there are some great like minded people here...
....but I don’t care for your tone one bit
Please don’t post to me again......

How would you feel about a tax law that would not allow corporations to deduct excessive CEO and executive salaries from their businesses expenses. Say maybe a limit of no more than $2 or $3 million deduction allowed. I was shocked to see the number of executives being paid more than $10 million. During the 2007/2008 crisis, Countrywide Financial’s CEO was paid $140,000,000, and the next year it was reduced to $100 million. Other bankster CEOs were being paid in the $70 millions, the $40 millions and the $20 millions. Google Forbes CEO compensation for those years and today.

I have no way to prove it, but I suspect that women played a considerable part in developing gardening, weaving, pottery, cooking, sewing, etc. Fighting and warfare not so much, but maybe that’s a good thing. ;-)

No argument there. But it was men who invented the weaving machines, who forged the gardening and sewing tools, who created the kilns for firing the pottery, etc. Fighting and warfare are only one part of what men do best. They solve problems, they fix things. They work together to do it.

Not that women don't -- we do, but in a different way that men cannot. I believe that as men are far superior to women in brute strength, we are far superior to them in a different kind of strength, a mental toughness. We supply strength and spiritual foothold to men and it has the same outcome as the great things they supply for us; together, we thrive (hey, I sound like that lady in those Kaiser Permanente ads!!).

Can you tell I'm intensely, deeply sexist?
{^) God bless and Merry Christmas!

“[Glenn beck] sure does hate Trump.”

Beck is like many serious-minded hard-researching consevatives — slow to trust recent converts. Trump has not been a conservative long enough.

That is why I think it’s important to emphasize Rush’s take on Trump, based on seeing Trump’s philosophy evolve.

Someone thought Rush might be a ‘tainted’ witness. But I disagree.

“So why not get behind someone who has actually done something???”

I think a popular, hard-working senator and a successful business man each have done something. Their skills are different — each arguably of the same value to be president.

I have relatives who live in Modesto. So far, they seem to remain happy there. But it’s just a matter of time before the entire state [of CA] turns into Bosnia/Kosovo.
