Fox’s Dobbs: Romney, Paul Ryan Are Despicable ‘Twosome from Hell’ Betraying the GOP
Mediaite ^ | 3/4/2016

Posted on 03/04/2016 7:49:48 PM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Fox Business Network anchor Lou Dobbs really lost his cool with Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan tonight, calling them a “twosome from hell” who are selling out their party.

He said on his FBN show tonight that Romney’s anti-Donald Trump speech and Ryan’s public comments are further proof of how they’re trying to “defend a stagnant failed status quo.”

“This time,” Dobbs declared, “they’re up against a winner and Trump is the people’s choice to this point, and the twosome from hell is about to lose another one if they have their way.”

Lou Dobbs has turned out to be my favorite person on Fox. He is a voice of reason among all the breathless idiots.

you cannot try to change what you said.

You are wrong and will not admit it.

Go vote Dem. They love that you cannot tell the truth.

Are you talking to Kenny or to me?

The post you replied to was the history of Cruz’s career from Wikipedia. He’s worked less than or barely half of his career in the private sector & the rest has been in government- either federal or state.

Considering the lies that flow freely & frequently out of the mouths of Cruz & his supporters, I don’t think you’re really in a position to say that.

Denial & lying to yourselves are still lies. ALL forms of deception are lies.
They are false witness according to the Ten Commandments & it’s wrong.
The devil is the father of lies, according to the Bible.

Sometimes, y’all remind me *very much* of democrats. In *many* ways.

But he is a larger beneficiary of Americans with disposable income. See how that works?

Yeah, I have a degree in economics and predicted the process you describe. It works for those who can afford to hire, and not for anyone in between. As it cycles the customer pool shrinks. As the customer pool shrinks, the product offered to those who can afford it increases in opulence. Hence Trump.

A corporation can move all of its operations overseas to take advantage of cheap labor and one day discover that Americans can no longer afford to buy their products because all the other corporations did the exact same thing.

Wholly Hayek! A grossly oversimplified model with catastrophic consequences!! Economists.

Allow me:

A corporation can move all of its operations overseas to take advantage of cheap labor and one day discover that Americans can no longer afford to... defend them and the conduct of their goods back to America. Ever seen that "externality" in a free trade discussion? There's more to it than that too when it comes to a reserve currency.

[Cruz] was one of Bush’s chief lawyers working on amnesty legislation...

UNIPARTY.

What is the end game of The Cheap Labor Express? It is the consolidation of all workers wages to that of the lowest cost worker that can do the job. Chinese, Mexican, Pakistani, whatever. That’s where we’re going. By any means necessary.

Globalization is good, get it?. The new Titans Of Industry in this country are leftist America haters.

To sociopaths, it isn’t lying. That’s why they can do it “with such ease”.

Both of Ted's parents had extreme problems with Alcohol as did his sister. Ted was arrested as a minor for alcohol related problems. In college Ted had more problems with alcohol. He recently told Anderson Cooper on CNN that he was a “scotch man” although he also extolled the virtues of whisky and other hard liquors. Ted has broken corpuscles in the end of his nose; he often has glassy eyes, and looks much older than his actual years, just look at Marco who is the same age. He has had difficulty keeping long term friends and he doesn't get along well with his colleagues.

Ted Cruz is an alcoholic. Anyone who comes from a family which has had a lot of difficulties with alcohol knows that no one lies more than an alcoholic. I don't know if that makes him a “sociopath”, but in my opinion it does disqualify him from holding the office of president.

Nope. You never will. The Free Trade Fanatics never consider the value of the nation in their economics. This is because everything is ceteris paribus for them. This is their way of ignoring the non-economic effects of their economic theories.

Trump is the only candidate who even tries to make you think that he will bring work back to America and make America a nation that “could” stand on its own (again) in the world if it had to. The rest preach the gospel of globalism.

Now, can he do it? I doubt it. But this is our last chance. If we don’t, we will become socialist by default.

Wrong. Limited government is the way to beat them. Trump represents anything but.

There will never be limited government in the US again, unless everything collapses and we have the necessary mass die-off of the useless eaters.

Our expectations are too high for a return to limited government. We expect to survive a head-on collision. We demand to have our “organic” produce certified. We want an FDA. We want NERC/FERC and the SEC and Postal Inspectors. Everyone wants cuts, but they want cuts to someone else’s sacred cow. But cuts are not an answer, even in the short term. We have to give up government as our nanny, even those “good” things.

Disagree there. The pattern of representation in the States indicates otherwise. The exasperation and futility expressed by so many Trump supporters is a sign of giving up at the threshold of victory.

I don't. Lots of people agree with me on both sides of the divide. I've spent considerable time and money demonstrating the superiority of private system design. We now have the communications and data collection capabilities to transform regulation into risk management for profit. All we need to really make it go is to automate much of contract authoring, trading, and conflict resolutoin. We're almost there.

I disagree there. The states are broke and have to balance their budgets so they do, and we always hear that it was “on the backs of the teachers/cops/firemen” or “with massive cuts to necessary programs for child care/education/women/the poor/etc”. That is always accompanied by a lot of whining and gnashing of teeth.

We can sit in our little conservative echo chambers and believe that the majority wants limited government, but they don’t. Just mention how we spend too much on PTSD for vets who never even saw combat and you’ll see that no one will give up their sacred cow.

>>I don’t. Lots of people agree with me on both sides of the divide. I’ve spent considerable time and money demonstrating the superiority of private system design.

Neither do I. But, we are a very small minority who are willing to give up our favorite government function.

>>I’ve spent considerable time and money demonstrating the superiority of private system design.

You’ve demonstrated this in a large scale pilot program that uses a population that is truly representative of America?

Wow. That really explains a lot. Maybe the close connection with Beck — also an alcoholic.

They haven’t sold the party out, them and politicians like them have utterly destroyed it. I had been a registered republican since I was the age to vote, and the party just kept heading to the left. I always voted republican conservative, the last real republican seemed to be Eisenhower.Or even JFK for that matter. “... what you can do for your country.” That’s republican crazy talk! :)

Not all of the States are broke. As to the whining, so what? You watch too much TV.

I'm not concerned with the majority. I am educating the corporatocracy in love with fascism. They are the ones who buy the media companies to advance socialism for fun and profit, while shrinking the pie the whole time. They suspect that it's coming down on their heads. It's time to teach them how the alternatives in risk management can open new markets for a monstrous array of new products and technologies.

You've demonstrated this in a large scale pilot program that uses a population that is truly representative of America?

Of course not. You want it on a silver platter? You're just as bad as the gibsmedats there.
