• ‘You Run or Shut Up’: Bill Cosby All Grumpy Over Donald Trump’s 2012 Prospects

  April 7, 2011 at 4:59pm

  I agree with Cosby here.

  In the end, Trump is someone who looks good with his tough attitude and the whole birther thing (which I will admit he did a good job with). But he still supported Obama back in 08, gave money to Harry Reid in his race against Sharon Angle, gave money to other liberals during the last election, expressed that he would interfere in business transactions he would not alike thus disrupting the free market because everyone would become afraid of what he could do, and stated awhile ago that he supports universal healthcare. What makes anyone think he has changed? This man is not a conservative.

• Beck Tells O‘Reilly Why Trump Is Making Him a ’Little Uncomfortable’

  In reply to Red Bubba.

  Thank you. It is nice to see someone with common sense.

  When Donald first announced he wanted to be President, he immediately said that he could be pro-life. He immediately just started jumping on the conservative populist bandwagon. The entire thing is completely ridiculous and it is obvious that he is using the whole birther thing to look popular. I have not seen him give any sense of where he stands on the issues, what he feels about what it means to be a conservative, or anything like that. Being firm on one issue (the whole birther thing) doesn’t suddenly make you a viable candidate. It’s like voting for Obama because “Yes we can” sounds good. It is entirely ridiculous.

  The real candidate is and will always will be the issues candidate. That is the candidate I am waiting for. To just vote for “the guy who can beat Obama” is horrible. I am sure that at this point any Republican candidate can beat Obama . . . that doesn’t make them qualified to be any better of a president. If anything, that could be horrible for the Republican party because the candidate could be horrible in office. For example, Trump has already said that he would stop any business transaction he did not like. That is NOT conservative AT ALL and would hurt business. We need a real issues candidate.

  In reply to RPGZero.

  China still has a ton of our dollars and bonds and could quite literally enslave us if they feel we were no longer AAA on our credit. I don’t think going to “pound” China is the answer.

  We both agree on one thing: We need to fix ourselves. I just believe the best way to beat China is to fix ourselves. We finally beat the Soviet Union because we could produce and the Soviets couldn’t. And you are right when you want a candidate who has to take care of America first. And considering Trump has bankrupted himself something like two times, I don’t think he should have any authority to help our economy. Not to mention, he is just like every candidate before him – a guy who is showing off his personality and not the issues. We need an issues candidate.

  Yes, let’s be “pound” China . . . and then they dump all of our dollars and bonds on the market, which immediately causes a drop in the dollar’s value, and throw us into a Second Great Depression.

  Don’t be so didactic. The choices are not “be subservient” or “pound” China. That is childish and ridiculous. I agree with Glenn here. If we begin to want to “pound” China, China within five moves will crush us with no effort because they hold so many dollars. The real solution, as Glenn would probably tell you, is economic. If you want to beat China, the best way to beat them is to cut the spending, get rid of the income tax, and encourage business in America to the point the debt begins to pay itself from such high revenues, which will simultaneously begin to undermine the Chinese. Beck knows, George Soros knows, and China knows that if America were to ever get back on her feet with the passion she used to, every enemy would cower because of our prowess and we would not be messed with by the Chinese, and the the Chinese will be crushed by how successful we are as well as the fact their Keynesian economic strategies are just going to cause them depressions and eventually destroy them (China is going to have a huge housing/property bubble within the next 10 years, guaranteed).

  I applaud Trump for his birther stuff. But quite frankly, that doesn’t save America from its financial woes, military troubles, and other problems. We should not be so blind and allow someone who does one good thing make us believe he is presidential material is ridiculous – we’d be falling for the same tricks we fell for for the last 70 years. The REAL candidate for 2012 is not the one who comes out and “looks good”. The real candidate will be the issues candidate who can touch every issue and give an answer that is based on liberty, constitutionality, the the Founders. The type of candidate is the one who knows his God, and the one who does will come with the principles of liberty.

  Trump, a candidate of liberty? I bet he can’t name even five of our Founders. He is just another neo-con.

• Amazing Video Emerges of China‘s ’Ghost Cities’

  This is the ultimate failure of Keynesianism. You think you can inflate your currency and constantly spend spend spend in hopes that the higher GDP will be good, when the truth is that in the end, no one is richer, central planning has failed to help the society as a whole, and you end up with a gigantic bubble that ravages the economy.

  If only the Keynesian economists both in our economy and our White House would learn their lesson.

  More pulling down of these types of things and more re-posting of the 10 Commandments, please.

• Strategist: Bachmann Could Launch Exploratory Committee by June

  March 24, 2011 at 1:14pm

  What we need is a good debate between good, liberty-loving people in the GOP to give us the best combination of candidates for 2012. Right now, I have not fully decided who I want to back, but I would not mind seeing a few months of debates between Bachmann, Herman Cain, Gary Johnson, and if he chooses to run, Ron Paul. I think right now this is the best for the GOP.

  . . . And anything so that we don’t have to have someone like Mitt Romney or Mike Huckabee become the candidate. I pray, by the grace of God, that neither man enters into this race.

• Pastor Fired After Backing New Rob Bell Book Questioning Hell

  March 24, 2011 at 12:36pm

  When will people realize that in the end, people only send themselves to hell. Jesus put it very clear Himself in the Gospel according to John that He does not judge people, but the word is what judges people. Everyone in the beginning because of sin is condemned, but it is their free decision to accept grace or to reject it. God is technically only the judge, you you have condemned yourself in the end. It is just like any other judge. Is it the judge that has sent you to jail? No, it is you yourself who committed the crime and put yourself in jail, the judge was just the arbiter of justice who made the judgement possible.

• Breaking: US Launches Military Action Against Libya

  March 20, 2011 at 12:11pm

  This is so strange . . . we started a military intervention and it feels as if it was not treated as a big deal at all in the media. Everything just happened so suddenly and so quickly, it feels as if it was just another typical “BREAKING NEWS” event and not “Whoa, we’re at war with another country!” It just feels so very wrong. I don’t like Bush or Obama, but at least with Bush people took the time to debate it and the media had time to report on it. With this it just feels like one day a UN Resolution is given, the next day, we’re invading a country. This is ridiculous

• Stossel: Did ‘Drunks and Prostitutes and Slackers’ Play as Big a Role in History as the Founding Fathers?

  March 15, 2011 at 1:20am

  While I don’t doubt people like this were around, something tells me this guy over-exaggerated many things to make his point. The Christian population at the time among most scholars of the time of the Founding was ridiculously high (unless, of course, you are getting your statistics from “The Godless Constitution” which is a book with no sources . . . and has unfortunately been used as a source by many present-day books which all quote it as saying the Christian pop. was only 15%). So I doubt there was “a brothel and bar on every corner.” And even if there were, the Second Great Awakening in the early 1800s would have neutralized any of this considering the social change that occurred radically changed society.

  Not to mention, just because someone did something in the past doesn’t mean it automatically means they changed the world. If I and my friends wear purple suits, and one day, all the presidents wear them, it does not mean I influenced them. So just because all the prostitutes wore red or walked alone at some point doesn’t mean they influenced the reason the first ladies wear red today or women walk alone today.
