      I’ve got two of Grossman’s books (he did the forward), guess which two. Mississippi gov just signed a bill that allows concealed weapons in church as part of the church’s security plan. Holders would have to have a state ccw with the exemption sticker but other than that it’s a ‘go’ and there’s a lot of us who already have the exemption sticker.
      My son’s church in Texas already allows parishioners to carry weapons in the church, a shrewd move considering the tactical mosque being built just down the road.

    “We’ve got to realize, Donald Trump is more of a Democrat than a Republican,” Cruz said. “He has been funding Democrats like Chuck Schumer, like Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), like Anthony Weiner, like de Blasio and many others. For forty years he has been supporting all these ultra-liberal politicians. He would be worse than Hillary Clinton, but he cannot beat Hillary Clinton.”

    “It’s very simple. All they have to do is look at the polls,” he said in response to those who think Trump might be a stronger candidate against Hillary Clinton. “Poll after poll after poll after poll after poll shows that if Donald Trump is the Republican nominee, he loses to Hillary Clinton by double digits. Donald Trump cannot beat Hillary Clinton. That would be the dream ticket for Hillary Clinton because all the polls show that Donald Trump would lose and would lose by a landslide.”

              But it’s not too early to tell what the Rat hitmen will do. The ad hominem attacks against Trump will increase, while Hillary promises personal cornucopias for every social parasite who agrees to kiss her arse. The attacks up to now have been relatively low-level, no need to waste all of the ammo yet, save it for the final offensive.
              Rats will ramp up, especially using their Hollyork devotees, keep the Trump folks from being able to effectively counter the attacks and push their points. The Rats are far more effective at pushing their candidates than we are ours.
              A problem I see is that we won’t be voting for Republican candidates as much as we’ll be voting for our personal candidate…or not. A lot of folks who did not support Trump will stay home, I bet, and that has the potential to make Congress lean more left too. Rats know that the second most important issue in November will be the balance in the House and Senate and if they can not only influence the undecideds but make enough of us to stay home it’s a win for them. Rats will show, their ‘haul ’em to the polls’ wrangling system will be in full force (we got one of them?), they’ll be screaming from the roof tops that if Trump gets in their Rat followers will have to get jobs and actually pay for things, a fate worse than death.
              Won’t be hard to trounce Trump to the poor and downtrodden, just play on his great wealth and success, play the ‘if it weren’t for a lack of drive and ambition there would go me’ card. Greed, envy, ennui, inertia, all hallmarks of the Rat followers and Trump’s the oetri dish the Hillary booster will culture them on.

                I do agree that the pack of uniparty sheep have been given orders to leave the red meat for Hillary. I mentioned months ago about how little William Trump is off limits until it is down to the Beast v. Trump.

                Hillary as the democratic nominee has a whole list of problems that the “demonize as usual attacks” against the republican nominee, will have going against her, and Trump will be the first candidate willing to fight malicious manipulation of the masses with fire.

                When Hillary brings up Trump’s wealth he has a nail in the coffin answer, and Trump is very good at repetition, unlike his predecessors who were afraid to go after any democrat. Trump has kept things simple and I suspect he will continue to do so. Hillary wants to demonize him over his wealth, Trump responds and runs commercials where he states “I’m wealthy, but no one ever gave me $675,000.00 to give a single speech.” Trump is a master at simplifying and gutting his opponents arguments.

                As to the tired old but we’ll lose the House and Senate. Who cares? What good has it done us having them? the Republicans have lied and ground us into the dirt for so long because we always vote for the lesser of two evils, we always vote because “What will happen if we don’t….” Yet the “Tea Party” turned out to be “Friends of Obama” and gave him everything he wanted. Paul Ryan is currently working to bail out Puerto Rico and screw America again.

                The SCOTUS nominees to come ? Well Cruz was a Roberts supporter, and look and all the other lemons appointed by Republicans, our country is in a mess not in spite of Republican politicians but because of them.

                Burn it down and see what rises out of the ashes, it can’t be worse that letting the putrid bastard political system that is now in place grow even stronger. And even if it is, it is only a matter of time as to when, not if, America destroys herself unless there is a miracle or a revolution of mind, hearts and souls.

                  The Hillary folks have been professinally playing the field for years now, positioning her for the run. They havevsoent many months targeting the potential opposition anf Trump showed as a potential frontrunner early on. They’ve been targeting him, testing defenses by probing attacks but they aren’t going to release the main forces until he’s confirmed. You can bet that pro teams are also developing anti-Cruz and anti-Kasich plans too, they aren’t out of the picture quite yet. I see a really dirty and heated emotional campaign that will turn or turn of a lot of voters.
                  The folks who’ll be sttacking Trump are pros at public manipulation and will earn their healthy fees. I can think of a number of ways they could use his wealth to attack Trump with potential voters from the poor to the upper middle class, but I won’t mention them. I worked the steeets long enough to know a lot of the issues that motivate blue-collar actions and you can bet the Rat psyops folks do to. Shouldn’t be too hard for the same manipulators to plant a little seed of avarice in middle class minds too, note how they’ve already starting poking that issue with a stick. It isn’t about completely changing a person’s mindset, it’s more about cementing the already convinced and creating doubt in the minds of the undecided.
                  That ‘burn it down’ may be the best bet, it’s a democracy and the self-interested and uninformed have a right to ruin it for all concerned. Back to my Mosaic proposition that God wants us to wander in the wilderness until this generation of self-centered nonbelievers dies off and the survivors learn the lesson of what they’ve lost.

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting us about your concerns.

    I want to assure you that the RNC is 100% completely neutral in the GOP Presidential primary. It is our duty to remain neutral until a party nominee has been chosen by the delegates at our Republican National Convention, being held in Cleveland, Ohio in July 2016.

    We will support whoever the nominee is.

    If you have any questions about the convention please visit conventionfacts.gop or feel free to reach out me.

    Thank you!

    P.S. – Have you heard about the field team we are building? It’s called the Republican Leadership Initiative and thousands are signing up! Check it out here and learn how you can get involved to help take back the White House in 2016.

      The Rats knew good and well that Sanders from didn’t have a snowball’s chance of winning the nomination, he’d pull good numbers but would end up going second to her. They had Hillary being pimped and puffed since 2008 when shevrolled to Obama, Sanders was no surprise.

It’s interesting yo me as even though the name translates in English to ‘Party of God’ their ‘hiz-bow-lah’ pronounciation, along with English written transliterations of the name, remove the ‘allah’ from the spoken/written version. Can’t help wonder where thevoressure’s come from to make the nation’s leading progressive apologist radio system to twist its normally precise and dulcet broadcaster commentaries into a less accurate and more veiled vein.

        Let’s hope that FEMA isn’t there, they’ll never get through with aid. We distinctly remember FEMA turning back civilian volunteers comibg with boats and agencies coming with food and gas during Katrina. The police ad hoc office on the Westbank actually got a van that was designed to provide hot showers to multiple officers, a drop-in-place item, in November, nearly three months after the storm. If it weren’t for food in grocery stores and some cops ponying up cash out of their own pockets and sending officers to surrounding cities to buy food things would have been very rough foodwise.
        I’m betting that the Ecuadorian officials, like the city ones here during Katrina, don’t have food, hot water or entertainment issues.

    Cruz, Trump has not said anything about the delegates in Utah or Wisconsin, you lyin’ POS.
    1. You say 3 weeks in a row, Donald with crushing landslide defeats to Cruz.
    3 weeks in a row would be March 22nd, April 1st, and April 5th and I’m sure you’re including Colorado, ND and Wyoming in those crushing landslide defeats, but let’s just include states where voters actually voted. Three states held actual elections during those weeks, you won 2 out of the 3, good for you. For those 3 states you had a total of 785,843 votes to Trumps 661,070 votes, hardly a landslide. You received a total of 76 delegates, Trump won 64, again hardly a crushing landslide defeat.
    2. You ask if they asked Trump that question when he had crushing landslide defeats, well no there would be no need to ask him that question because there still was and is a path to 1237 delegates.
    3. You say you have to win a majority and Trump doesn’t have a path to a majority. Exactly what majority have you won? You’ve won 9 states and you couldn’t even get to 50% in your home state. Trump has won 21 states and won his home state with 60% of the vote. If anyone is buying your crap that Trump doesn’t have a path to a majority but you do then they’re as nuts as you are.
    4.You say Donald says these are voterless elections and go on to say in the 5 states he’s lost in a row over 1.3 million people voted. Once again Utah and Wisconsin the people voted, Colorado, Wyoming and North Dakota the people did not vote. You are correct, a little under 1.3 million people voted in Utah and Wisconsin, you won those states and those states delegates and nobody is denying that and nobody is whining about you receiving those delegates.
    5. You say Trump got less votes in NY than you got in Wisconsin, but got more delegates than you got for winning Wisconsin, good grief Wisconsin has a smaller population than NY so they have less delegates. That would be like me complaining that Texas gets more electors than Oklahoma does and I’m not even a Constitutional lawyer who memorized the Constitution when I was 4 years old. Apples to oranges you blowhard, people were given the opportunity to vote unlike Colorado, ND and Wyoming.

      Similarly socialist, I was watching the local morning news in California whilst consuming breakfast, and they were saying something about raising property taxes on high valued properties so students could have free tuition and some college or university down here. In closing, the comment was made that tuition used to be free until 1982 without any explanation.
      Things have less value when you never worked for something, and that includes tuition and medical procedures.

        How things do come around. I remember Gov Reagan of California trying to do away with free student tuition because the state coffers couldn’t take the hit. Lobbyists for the state school system quashed his attempts.

    Mwybe the staff read some of his prior writings on the medical system and Obamacare – things can cone back to bite ya. He also fidn’t say whether he was in a publically-owned or doctor-owned medical system as the latter under Obamacare is making some seven times more profits than the former. The huge new LSU medical center in New Orleans, part of a project that demolished blocks of downtown and is coloxated with the new VA Butchery Center, gets the same crappy reviews, Stossel’s remarks are eerily similar. Meanwhile a huge physician-owned system that’s long been the go-to place in the city for serious problems, is given glowing reviews. The LSU center, largely funded by the state, is already facing problems and one of the parishes right next door is trying to lease out the hospitals it owns as they are too expensive to run. OK, bureaucrats that couldn’t run a nylon stocking tell the hospitals what to do but it’s all the same.
    We don’t have that problem, as the Czarina works for a major private chain if either of us were to go in we’d get a private room ( autocomplete finished that out as ‘tomb’) at no extra and personal treatment. That’s seemingly unfair but I won’t be filing any ‘Stossels’.

    Unfortunately this stuff has been happening for a very long time. We coached our kids when they were little and the parents were a pain in the rear, most more immature than their children. Always complaining, always fighting with another parent on the team or parents from the other team, always wanting me to referee their fights. They’d come into the dugout to tell me I needed to do something about so and so or say something to so and so or they were going to kick their a$$. I’d tell them they were adults, to handle their own problems, I wasn’t their parent or their teacher and if they wanted to kick so and so’s a$$ to go do it away from the field their kid was trying to play a game.
    A few did and a few got banned, it would have been so peaceful if they had just banned all the parents. lol

      When my son was 3, he played in a soccer league. They actually had to ban one of the fathers because he got so violent and angry, and used such foul language when we played. The kids were three. THREE.
