Trumped by Trump

As of Thursday, March 3, 2011

The media reported that Ron Paul (the Republican representative elected 11 times to Congress from his south Texas district) blasted Donald Trump for publicly stating that Paul could not get elected president, and quoted Paul as churlishly retorting, “How many times has Donald Trump been elected?”

What a childish, unprofessional comeback from a hopeful candidate for the office of president of the United States. Maybe Trump was right! Certainly Truman was: “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.”

Ron Paul is a Libertarian....not a republican...his son, Rand, is a republican.

Trump is a buffoon. Ron Paul is a statesman and a great American. If he doesn't win the presidency then there isn't much hope left for America.

Harvey Thibodeau needs to look at the film clip where Ron Paul as asked about his reaction to Donald Trumps statement about Ron Paul’s electability. Harvey went wrong when he opened his letter with the words “The media reported” ….. Anyone looking at the actual footage would see a very polite response from Congressman Paul NOT a “churlish blast” …. I guess Harvey like many people believe what fits their preconceptions and take “The media” seriously.

How much did Donald Trump just donate to Rahm Emmanuel's successful mayoral campaign . . . $50,000?

What serious conservative would help get a socialist elected? Trump's full of ****. Ron Paul tells you exactly his intentions, I'll give him that. The biggest obstacles standing in Ron Paul's way are his "fringe" supporters, whom happen to be the loudest. The one's like Jesse Ventura and Alex Jones who think George Dubba-Ya blew up the World Trade Center.
