Ernie Boch is a wannabee Trump
By FredQuimby
Fri, 08/28/2015 - 6:31pm
His family is of the same belief that all publicity is good publicity. Ernie never met a billboard that shouldn't have his mug stuck firmly on it.
The best way to combat his support for Trump is to go buy a car from Herb Chambers. Chambers has more class in his little finger than Trump and Boch combined.

who is as big a jerk, and a rich one at that, as Boch. Each of them leaves a lot to be desired as far as the rest of us human beings ought to be concerned. Chambers's billboards are as stupid as Boch's radio ads.

So since it was organized by a large pro abortion group, it automatically a success? Even though only 30 people showed up? That doesn't sound like it was too successful to me.

I wish I had been there to add my voice! I really need to get more involved in the Pro-Choice movement.
And yes, if that makes me Pro-Abortion, well I'm fine with that title!!
No, Being Pro-Choice Does Not Make Someone Pro-Abortion
By Elmer

That is a title bantered about by some anti-choice individuals — often people who claim to be pro-life, but who have little regard for human lives after people are born. You can dislike abortion, but still respect a woman's right to choose.
I imagine many with pro-choice views had no desire to add to Mr. Trump's publicity by attending the event, even as a protest.
True enough!
By wwyki
Sat, 08/29/2015 - 4:17pm
But I don't think there is anything wrong with a woman choosing to have an abortion, so I have no issue with saying I'm pro-abortion. I believe there shouldn't be a stigma to having an abortion.
You see what you did there

"anti-choice"? It's as loaded a phrase as "anti-life", really.
Myself, I've got my views, but as far as language goes, I'm all into rational discussion of viewpoints, so it is "abortion rights" and "anti-abortion" for me.
and yet nobody takes the opportunity to say "anti-life"

If you see him as the great white knight who will fix everything with pat formulas and simpleton solutions, you should be delighted that he's in this important forum more than a year before an election.
The bigot wing of the cult of virtuous selfishness has long been left in the lurch by the GOP. Sure they get a bit of fluffing and even more pandering, but once their savior lands in office, he promptly ignores them to favor the corporate side.
It's like you're the ultimate political cuckolds, ever hopeful, always betrayed. And yet your childlike faith is such a thing to wonder at, however unsupported it is.
I'm looking at the broader data spectrum and over there, he's passing his shelf life and hasn't said anything useful in weeks, just stupid taunts blown out with stunning incoherence.
Of course, if you haven't extricated yourself from a middle school playground outlook, this idiot approach probably seems perfect.
Trump WILL be our next President.

All you people that don't support Trump, clearly support and are in favor of the satus quo. In our current America, moronds from all over the world come here to receive free medical, free housing, free food and the list doesnt end. Trump is the only candidate that will answer every question blatantly and fair. He has an agenda which is getting America back on track which will benefit everyone.
False choice fallacy
By Kaz

False choice fallacy. There are more options than the status quo or Trump.
Incorrect. We have some of the worst public healthcare, public assistance, welfare, and public support systems in the Western World. We have assholes like yourself that underfund it because of 30 years of boogeymen scaring people into thinking that there's a great unwashed herd living solely on the dole, when what's really happening is your own friends and family are being marginalized due to inadequate social protections,
Back on what track? When do you think we first left that track? What year and what is the defining event? Why does "answering questions" for Trump always reveal some enemy that he feels needs slandering? It's very clear his "fair" answers are total deflection from the actual issues. For example, what does Anthony Weiner have to do with anything these days? Why was his name dragged through the mud by Trump just because the guy's wife works for Hillary? Trump is a showman. We don't need a carnival barker, we need a thoughtful leader with a vocabulary larger than a sixth grader. Sure, YOU won't understand what's being said, but that's probably a good thing.
