Sarah Palin was blamed for the Gabby Giffords shooting because of a crosshair graphic that was over areas of the country.
The left-leaning Business Insider have crosshairs over Trump. This is after the call for a “new tone.”
The left is D.E.S.P.I.C.A.B.L.E.
Why the GOP ever listens to one word they say, and “play by their rules” is beyond me.
Hit them with napalm and keep going until they are eradicated.
GO To Progressives Today for the rest.
As molecules go, Business Insider typically leans to the left of normalcy and humanhood.
This is precisely why people like Trump.
He took the gloves off and dropped the bullshit “rules”.
Fight enemy fire with more YUGE fire!
I want to see the man clean house and fire most of the politician/lawyers who refuse to do the job we are paying them to do. They will all want to see him in the crosshairs after they get his boot in their useless arses.
TRUMP CAN’T WIN? THINK AGAIN: HERE’S HOW TRUMP WINS THE GOP NOMINATION: Donald Devine was one of the political strategists who helped Ronald Reagan win in 1980, so he knows something about presidential politics. Love Trump or hate him, Devine’s analysis of the Trump surge is absolutely essential reading.

Progressives never cease to amaze me.
In order to be a lefty you have to accept living in an alternate reality. Treasonous Bastards!
I’m loving this! Trump is making the left lose their collective shit! I haven’t had this much fun since Gary Hart challenged the media to catch him!

“Why Obama,Hillary & Jeb must Stop Donald Trump at all Costs”
By Wayne Allyn Root. Video

Is there a video?
FYI: The symbol that started all this – from the Palin graphic with the map and locations – wasn’t even a scope cross-hair. It is a common drafting symbol used when showing positions and/or tolerances. See this AutoDesk image. Image libraries of drafting symbols are common and fairly handy when you are creating graphics. Rifle scope reticle image libraries, not so common.
I too am not a bit tamed—I too am untranslatable;
I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world.
EL Donald has poked a hole in the life raft of political correctness the Left has been floating on.
Without the threat of vilification for an offense for some unapproved social position; the Left has no teeth.
Trump has pulled them all
I’m waiting for him to be put on Double Secret Probation
how do we know Karl Rove isnt the “architect” behind this?
Status: False. Those are not crosshairs. They are precision halo-centering lines which were not supposed to appear in the final product.
Here is the video: http://rootforamerica.com/why-obama-hillary-must-stop-donald-trump/
The link by Press Watch (above) is his article.
Hahahahahahahaha
Imagine if you post a photo of Obama with the cross-hairs trained at the fly on that bastards face?
Hmmm?
And none of Palins were placed over a face. They were on a map of voting districts.
Is this “The ABSOLUTE Height of Hypocrisy!!!” ?
No it is not. Not even close. As Trump gains in stature and consolidates his gains this is going to look like a blip on the graph. The hypocrisy will be coming on two fronts, and as for the Democrat hypocrisy… they will look like pikers compared to the establishment Republican attacks. As I heard in the Tacoma Costco during the last Super Bowl: The wheels is coming off!!!
Don’t get me wrong, it took me a while to warm up to Trump, BUT the man is listening and he starts with a fairly solid foundation, BUT what is more important he is listening to the American people and MAKING THEIR PRIORITIES what he is campaigning on. Now, follow me on this, this man Trump is his own man and I believe that listening to the American people has made him “come around” on a lot of issues. He has taken positions that he held as an individual, BUT, and this is important, I do believe that he is not making an act of having gotten himself into a position in which he has to finally decide to take a long hard look at his varying positions over the years and decide where he stands.
I haven’t seen or heard anything phony come from this man. I’m going to go out on a limb and say: Donald Trump reminds me of… .. . me. He is not afraid to say what is on his mind and I have seen no indication that he has done or said anything just to build support.
What I am seeing is a man who goes to bed comfortable with the fact that he is comfortable saying what he is saying and I see a man who fully intends to try his level best to follow through with what he has said he will do to advance his (the American people’s) agenda.
For the first time in his life Donald Trump has had to listen to the whole of the American people and give their wants and desires just consideration BEFORE making a decision whether he stands with the American people or what his elevated position as one of the richest men in America’s circumstance has surrounded himself with policy wise.
He is not a man who impresses me as one who would say something just to increase his popularity. His constitution would not allow that. This is what my motto has always been: I don’t care what anybody thinks about me, I care only what I think about me. Is that arrogance? Is that un-Christian? Well, it very well may be both. But, what it also is indication is, to me, is a man who I will not have to worry about going to Washington to be liked.
The bold-faced arrogance of The Donald will not allow him to be bullied and his constitution will simply not brook “going along to get along.” You are going to have to convince him before he decides to move your way.
OK now, let me say that I do believe that being competitive has led Donald Trump to alter some of his positions. This is just fine with me because I do believe that, as I stated above, he has to get really, really serious about digging deep into what his beliefs really are and SINCERELY LISTENING to all points of view in order to make absolute certain what his position honestly is on EVERY issue that affects the American people makes a HUGE difference between positions he voiced an opinion on in the past and what his position is now that he has to SERIOUSLY define and articulate upon where he stands.
I “spout off,” you “spout off,” and we all “spout off” and that is just part of the fun of being alive. Sometimes we do it just to be provocative and this Donald Trump is a fun loving guy. Give the man some slack, of course there are times when he has “spouted off” with out having a considered a thorough and exhaustive examination of all points of view. You have done it, God knows I have done it. Then looking back, we all realized that we gave an opinion that was not really a fairly considered opinion. Give this man some slack! Now that he has to get in front of the American people he has to study and take into accounts all sincere and rational opinions on the subjects he is offering an opinion on. And from what I have seen, HE HAS.
I won’t say, Donald Trump has “evolved,” but I will say: my inclination is that Donald Trump is listening and paying serious attention to the issues before giving an opinion. This man has been a politician all his professional life. As such his words in certain venues have been measured. But in the business venue in which he was operating at the time.
He has had free reign to “spout off” regarding subjects in the venue he is operating in now. Today, running for public office, he could look solely at what constituencies the power players are focused on, but it impresses me that he is casting the widest net of all of the contenders and by doing so is actually giving the opinion of all of the American people the consideration they deserve.
His base of support is DEEP and it is WIDE. His support would not be there if he were selling a “bill of goods.” Would it? You can fool all of the people some of the time, and you can fool all of the people some of the time… but who among us has said that they have heard someone say they decided to move on because he isn’t what he claims to be?
But I diverge. Now let me get back to the question I posed earlier.
Is this “The ABSOLUTE Height of Hypocrisy!!!” ?
Not by a long shot. Will some Democrat claim that mantle in this election cycle? NO WAY, not if history is anything to go by. The blue ribbon winner, for the umpteenth time will be an establishment Republican.
Democrats don’t lie to their base. Establishment Republicans stock in trade is lying to their base. This is well documented and established FACT Jack. Live it, love it learn it.
I can say that Democrat politicians have told me bold-faced lies but I have never seen them lie to their base. I have had establishment Republicans flat out lie to my face and turn and dry-shave me MORE TIMES THAN NOT when asked a direct question.
YMMV, but I hold the latter in greater contempt.
Can we get a IOTW version of this with a picture of whom ever created or wrote this. I’ll post the shit out of it on IG.
I am on a roll now and I am rather perturbed by what is being brought up by the eRepublicans. This man was not a politician until as late. He had no incentive to make certain that he justly and fairly considered all points of view. Did he? If so please articulate.
Of course he loves his sister and said she is Supreme Court material, who wouldn’t?
WTF Homer, that was just him saying that his sister is good at her profession. Give the man the same consideration you would give any man who’s sister had pursued a career and been successful at it. For the love of God man, be somewhat sympathetic to a man’s love for his sister and the fact that she has excelled in her chosen career. The man was not running for President of the United States when he said his sister was the best. What he was saying is: my sister is good, damn good, in fact she is the best.
She may or not be a constitutional scholar and at the time he said she was Supreme Court material he was not a serious Presidential candidate who has to seriously consider her credentials and measure his words accordingly.
WTF, give the man the same consideration you appreciate when you are bragging up your sister. There I go, using the “F” that I have sworn off, but hey, the man has as much a right to be proud of his sister as you and I do. To fall into the trap the eRepublicans, have set for the Republican base is just to admit that you go for sucker bait.
So is The Donald an “opportunist?” I hope so. An opportunist takes measure of what the world has to offer and offers the world a way to satisfy their urge. Donald Trump’s world right now is to convince the American electorate that his Presidency is the best hope they have to make America once again reflect their values.
In my mind, he is succeeding and the man, above all else, wants to go to his grave being respected as a man amongst men by the very same people who made his reality show number one.
I don’t watch television, I DON’T EVENHAVE ONE, but it is obvious that he thrives on “connecting with” the average American.
He is kinda’ fun loving. And until he was serious I didn’t give him any thought, but since I have been paying attention I have figured out that he would not be a bad guy to just toss things back and forth with.
As for Trump making a statement that differs from what he has “spouted off” on:
Merely having an open mind is nothing; the object of opening the mind, as of opening the mouth, is to shut it again on something solid.
G.K. Chesterton
So, today Trump has to decide what his honest belief is and articulate on it, are we to accept that when this highly intelligent man has to make a definitive statement that he has not considered all alternatives? To accept that is to deny that he is an arrogant man.
Just my opinion as a fellow arrogant man.
Brad, you can get a picture of me any time you please. In fact I would love to meet you if/when I am ever again in California.
I used to be in CA two or three times/year when my brother and niece lived in SF. Not so much in the last ten years though.
My name is actually JDHasty, like in John Daniel Hasty and I never post political opinion, or any other opinion, without letting the world know it is me posting it.
I don’t ever “sucker punch” and I stand there with my chin out if someone wants to punch back.
I most certainly not anonymous, I live in Tacoma WA and would welcome having anyone and everyone have the chance to kick the topics I opine on back and forth.
Here is where it gets “dicey.” I have a family and they come first, and I love to hunt and it is heading into hunting season. My focus is not towards political discussions at all this time of year.
I still follow along, but I will warn you that you and others that my focus is not going to be paying attention to all of the apologetics from the eRepublicans and Democrats. It is first on the kids and second on killing big bulls and bulls this time of year.
You will have to be prepared to take up where I left off.
I may, or may not, weigh in.
Post it, but be fore warned… some days I am tuned in and can be somewhat articulate and other days I just could not give a damn.
You could be waiting for me to jump in and my thoughts might be on hunting big blacktail bucks or big bull elk. That is just how God made me.
Not that I don’t think the future of the Republic is not important, it’s just that I am being honest. And in my case my interest is otherwise this time of year.
Oh, Dems DO lie to their base…we on “this” side don’t notice it. But they do, and HOW!
Any chance the article was funded by the GOPe?
Yes they do! They lie like hell to their base, but not about how policies they will support. They lie about what the effects of those policies will be though.
