#1 ...but we recognize that there are defensible arguments on the other side.

#2 Americans are better than this

#3 -- words such as bigot, bully and buffoon.

The life blood of the Left. Now someone else has picked up the play book.

If the ruling class believed and abided by the law, the yahoos would be far less restive. In their unquenching thirst for power and money, they're the ones who've started the fire. Something, something about 'consent of the governed'.

#4 The post and their daily hit pieces on conservatives. The media never will get it right because they answer to their handlers.

#5 Generally the system works best when people assume that their political opponents are acting in good faith.

We have finally gotten most people to realize that the Dems, the MSM, and the Left do not do so. They demand our side behave civilly while they conduct the "War on Wymyns", the "Binders of Wymyns", the "White Privilege" slurs and slanders. I don't know if I can pull teh lever for Trump, but I do know I like his hold on their minds. They're terrified, because they can't control him

#6 Frank, I can pull the lever for Trump given the "quality" of those running against him.

He's not my first, second or third choice of those that are left but..............................

#9 When the Primary gets to Texas I will vote for Cruz. If Trump wins the nomination I will certainly pull the lever for him.

The GOPe must be ripped apart and cast upon the ash heap.

Thank you for pointing out one the great flaws in the way legislation is crafted.

I believe it's referred to in some quarters as 'constructive turmoil.'
