What exactly is this problem with this? It’s just $69,000. The man has literally raised 10s of millions of dollars from small grass root efforts, but a large donation and you think you have a the magic bullet???
I would hope he would have some large donations... But $70 grand out of millions is nothing. He is beholden to no one with this. If anything, I’d say he is fortunate to have a wife employed there which helped influence her employer in supporting her husbands campaign.

One of those two have a record of supporting the conservative ideology. The other does not.

Yep. A matter of trust. I get it. And I respect Cruz supporters. Used to be one myself. And I would drop Trump in a heartbeat if he proves to be a phony — not speaking about past record. But present.
To: Arthur Wildfire! March
You are probably right. Trump may not be a conservative although it's probably a mistake to judge him by what he says rather than what he does.
I still maintain the Donald is “apolitical” and has little if any respect for politicians.Its gonna be interesting to see how he evolves.
I just heard him say he has only spent under a million bucks of his campaign fund so far and didn't know why he bothered to spend that!Have to admit he's a new breed. Too early to make a call on him,IMHO.

Best bet on taxes would be Fiorinas three page plan. The less complicated the better.
Even if you allow only two or three million per year there are a zillion other devious ways to pay these guys.

“I still maintain the Donald is ‘apolitical’ and has little if any respect for politicians.Its gonna be interesting to see how he evolves.”
That’s the most prudent thing I’ve heard anyone post yet. I’m already sold to be honest unless something comes up or if Cruz builds a huge moment. Was embarassed to admit I felt a certain tingle yesterday.
Okay, it went from my leg to my spine, thinking about Trump. And today it’s in my scalp. [A tingling scalp is SOOOO much more dignified.]
To: Arthur Wildfire! March
Thanks Arthur.
To be brutally honest with you I have spent several years gathering info on every candidate we have.
There is only one who is spotlessly clean and its Ben Carson and he’s not going anywhere.
Seems once again there are no 100% candidates on our side and you can forget the other side they are in negative territory.
So it seems those who sat home in 2012 did so for no reason at all.

That makes me feel any better that I stood up for Carson against the slander-fest.
Some posters seemed to question Carson’s conservatism. Are you talking about personal integrity?
To: plewis1250
What about the over $700,000 from the Club for Growth? Why are you ignoring hedge-fund guru Robert Mercer of Renaissance Technologies. Mercer has reportedly donated at least $31 million to help elect Cruz, which is more than Cruz has raised from other sources during his entire political career.
Donors matter. They expect something in return. Why do you think Cruz wants to increase H-1B visas five-fold?
In his own words--Sen. Cruz Amendment to Immigration Legislation to Increase H-1B Visas FYI: The study that Cruz cites is bogus. This is a disgrace. And right now, the Ryan supported Omnibus bill will quadruple H-2B visas. Both parties have abandoned the American worker.
Why do you think that Cruz voted to give Obama fast track trade authority? Only Senator Cotton opposed it. He who pays the piper, calls the tune.

I know where Modesto is.
I was in the central valley.
I think it’s called normalcy bias, you get used to the changes incrementally, saying each change ‘isn’t so bad’. The cumulative effect never gets noticed.
When we moved, that’s when I really noticed all the people speaking English, signs in English, white teenagers able to get jobs, American flags all over, people asking me straight out - what party did I vote for and which church did I go to. Apparently I answered correctly each time because I got hugs and welcomes.
It’s a breath of fresh air to be in the US!
To: Arthur Wildfire! March
Yes as well as anything else that would point to issues that conservatives would not run with.

Fascinating to ‘hear’ the numbness, the ‘frog-in-the-boiling-pot’ sensation that occurs during balkanization. I bet it was similar for Jews during the time of Hitler.
To: DallasSun
Whether you respond or not, I am revisiting this.
I will gladly and humbly own up to my foibles when called out.....I have done so many times on this forum.
But for you to respond to me out of the blue and use past references to my character to set me up for your condemnation is truly not fair.
Conservativebabe hasn’t been around for a long time......but she chose this thread to go after Freepers and this forum
Some of us responded
Then you pop in and use past grievances to personally chastise me because I suggested she might be happier on another forum.
I’ m really not sure what I ever did to get on your bad side.
No one likes to be ambushed......
I love Free Republic!
May God grant you peace.

They cover McLettuce and Flaked's ass
It's either Clear Channel or local management: the local programming is unbearable - they are using Rush and Hannity for ad revenue.
KFYI2, however, is bearable: great Morning Drive (Armstrong and Getty), with Glenn Beck Babe Dana Loesch following (in which case you are likely to be listening to Rush).
It's a jungle out there!

I used to be his biggest fan, but he became seduced by the opportunity to be a Talking Head, instead of running a conservative radio show. For shame.

Trump is the only one running who doesn’t need the money.
All other politicians are owned by rich donors. Politicians in
Washington DC are corrupt(NO ONE can deny this simple fact). Washington dc is a den of corruption and evil , socialist evil(go ahead deny this ok?, you puppet of the media.how does it feel to be a programmed bot of the media? how about you think on your own and break out of the matrix?
Trump is the only one that can save America from the slide the media and the politicians have put us in , a slide into the abyss of a hell, called socialism.

Only Trump has stood up against the media, China, Mexico ,illegals, Muslims (All of the enemies of America and freedom). etc. Your politicians have not stood up nor said anything against ALL of these enemies of America.
Why haven't they? Because they are all owned
