Trump: Why is Clinton not investigated but I am?

[Mesaclone]

Really?  We're told we need to be a-okay with a watered down Republican "fix" for Obamacare instead of the repeal that Trump ran on.  Sounds like the Republicans are failing all by themselves.

Who's "OK" with it? What most realize is that this is the best bill we can achieve with the current makeup of congress...which includes a good number of very moderate Republicans. Further, we also realize that failing to get this less than perfect repeal, would ultimately turn the country towards single payer Socialist solutions.

Liberals don't appoint Judge Gorsuch and nominate a raft of conservative lower court justices.
Liberals don't strengthen the military.
Liberals don't appoint a cabinet full of staunch conservatives.
Liberals don't do executive orders repealing bureacracy.
Liberals don't pull us out of the Paris agreement.
Liberals don't reduce immigration in the first 6 months by 59%.

As for helping, you've made it clear that you'll stick to helping Liberalism regain power in the nation...your actions are clearly working to make that occur. Clearly, you're proud of that.

*YAWN*

Boring.

Then go bother them for support.

Relax.  No one's asking for your support. We'll respect your right to withhold it.

[Mesaclone]

You probably didn't want them in the foxhole with you.

Guys like that find ways not to be in a foxhole.

Boring. And factually correct.

You forgot that last part.

They are extremely proud of that.  Their posts reek of vanity and pride of their own virtue ... so much better than us that we don't even belong on the same planet.  I stand in awe of them.

Conservatives don't appoint a person to be Secretary of State who pushed to include homosexual leaders for Boy Scouts and then go on to maintain the previous liberal Secretary of State's gay pride month policy.

Yes, they can hardly deign to call us fellow conservatives...we don't meet their self appointed purity test.

Who's okay with it?  The people that keep telling us we have to keep voting for the Republican.

They are the kind of people who ... if a hole needed to be dug, would stand around all day bemoaning the kind of shovel they were provided.  While some of us just picked up a shovel and dug the hole.

If that's a Biblical quote, you'd better duck.  I quoted the Bible a few days ago and have only recently been able to get out of bed.

Why can't a gay man be a Boy Scout leader IF the organization itself, without direction from the government, decides to allow it? There's no evidence that gay troop leaders are more likely to commit crimes than anyone else.

I've been in that foxhole...repeatedly. So what is it you'd have me heal?

I think you're having a problem with some reading comprehension tonight. You and @Emjay are back and forth calling we fiscal and social conservatives asses, all the while acting like a couple of asses.  This is not meant as a "personal attack" just my way of pointing out that you are doing and acting exactly the way you say we act.  It's pretty ridiculous.

[endicom]

I thought we were discussing why Hillary is not being investigated and Trump is.

Why would you think that?

I've never in my life labeled an entire group...."fiscal" or "social" conservatives as you state...asses. In fact, I'm deeply fiscally conservative...though I readily admit my Libertarian streak often places me at odds with "social" conservatives. That's a far cry from calling them "asses". Now, individual social conservatives...or anyone else for that matter...may behave as "asses" as you say...but that's because of who they are, not their political views.

One, I don't particularly like being called an ass.  It IS a personal attack and I have reported you.  I am a fiscal and social conservative.  I just have a different opinion about how to accomplish those goals.

And let me add...I'm not "doing and acting" exactly the way I say you act. In fact, had the candidate I opposed in the primary won....Ted Cruz...I'd be avidly supporting him now against this Dem/Media assault. I would rally to the party and conservatism as a cause, despite the fact that many of my "principles" are not aligned with Mr. Cruz. I would not sit astride a high horse proclaiming Ted not "pure enough"....because doing so would make me an unwitting ally to the Left and its agenda...and...well...just plain not very smart.

The behavior that you both were describing, some people being too high and mighty to call you a conservative, etc. is behavior I associate with someone acting like an ass.  And I chose that word only as an example, I could have used the word "stupid" or "obnoxious" or any other synonym.  It doesn't have much to do with being an ass as much as you both acting like the people you're accusing of acting a certain way.

Perhaps you should check back through some threads and read the people we refer to...proclaiming us, and others, to not be conservatives. Its not being an "ass" to simply point out what has occurred here.

Don't be so dramatic, if I was calling you an ass (which I wasn't and I think that is pretty clear) I was calling myself an ass also.

[RoosGirl]

It is being pretty hypocritical calling out someone else for doing what you are doing yourself.

[Mesaclone]

Well, I haven't called anyone an "ass"....nor have I told them they are not a conservative.

[Silver Pines]

No one is saying that....the disparate elements of the party are free to debate, argue and battle through the primaries...and then we unite against the true danger. If we fail at that, we aren't upholding "principles", we are simply losing...and handing the nation over to rabid socialists. Had Cruz won, I'd have been glad to vote for him...ditto for all the GOP candidates minus Kasich. You can't advance conservatism if the Dems are perpetually in power...so we unite or we fail. Its that simple....and for me, failure is not a strategy I'm willing to accept.

@Mesaclone

Wait, wait, hold on a second.  So after the primaries are done, we come together and unify under the banner of the Republican candidate.

Except Kasich, because you don't like him.  So that's different.

LOL
