The group was also planning a third party run if Trump wins. The meeting was organized by RedState founder Erick Erickson who has vowed to never vote for Trump – even if it means a Hillary Clinton presidency. dump trump crowd The anti-Trump group released a statement this afternoon. Here is the statement agreed to by the conservatives who met this morning to stop Trump: https://t.co/klsTcIiPOf — Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) March 17, 2016 Erick Erickson’s website released this statement today to stop Trump. The group called “for a unity ticket that unites the Republican Party.” …Except, of course, for the seven million Trump voters. They can go to hell. The cowards did not have enough courage to release the attendees at the meeting. This morning I participated in a meeting of grassroots conservative activists from around the country who are committed to opposing Donald Trump. We have agreed to release the statement below: We are a group of grassroots conservative activists from all over the country and from various backgrounds, including supporters of many of the other campaigns. We are committed to ensuring a real conservative candidate is elected. We believe that neither Hillary Clinton nor Donald Trump, a Hillary Clinton donor, is that person. We believe that the issue of Donald Trump is greater than an issue of party. It is an issue of morals and character that all Americans, not just those of us in the conservative movement, must confront. We call for a unity ticket that unites the Republican Party. If that unity ticket is unable to get 1,237 delegates prior to the convention, we recognize that it took Abraham Lincoln three ballots at the Republican convention in 1860 to become the party’s nominee and if it is good enough for Lincoln, that process should be good enough for all the candidates without threats of riots. We encourage all former Republican candidates not currently supporting Trump to unite against him and encourage all candidates to hold their delegates on the first ballot. Lastly, we intend to keep our options open as to other avenues to oppose Donald Trump. Our multiple decades of work in the conservative movement for free markets, limited government, national defense, religious liberty, life, and marriage are about ideas, not necessarily parties.

Vicomte13  posted on  2016-03-20   16:14:12 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #54. To: A K A Stone (#52) That is just dumb. Cruz went into a meeting of Eastern Orthodox Arab Christians - people who have been brutalized all over the Middle East. Those people, from the front right there, know that radical Islam is terrible. They ALSO know that Israel is discriminatory against them, and that Israeli policies have brutalized and radicalized the Muslims in their neighborhood, making it much harder for Christians there, much as the American invasion of Iraq broke the civil peace of that country imposed by Saddam Hussein, and ended up unleashing Islamist terrorism on Christians. Middle Eastern Christians are not pro-Israel. They're not "destroy Israel" or "destroy America" jihadis either. They are opposed to aggressive wars and policies that result in the persecution of Christians far and wide, and they know a hell of a lot more about the conditions of Christians on the ground in the Middle East, including in Israel, than Ted Cruz ever will. Cruz came in and didn't give a damn. He insulted them to their face, told them that if they did not support the state of Israel they were part of the problem, not the solution, and he would have nothing to do with them. Cruz is an Israel firster, and really a loathsome shit when you get right down to it. But if he's on the ticket, conservatives who love him will vote for Trump/Cruz, and if that's what it takes to win, then fine. It's like Reagan/HW Bush. You ally with whom you need to in order to defeat the worse threat. You and I are both voting for Trump, for different reasons. Doesn't mean that you're signing up for my beliefs or I, yours.

The fact that he is not a narcissistic sociopath gives him a "yuge" advantage over the gasbag. He's the king of the narcissistic sociopaths. The only people who can't, or refuse, to see it are people who are stupid or determined to avoid Trump's sense of reality and are desperate to believe Cruz will save them.

To: sneakypete (#68) Since when has evolution claimed virgin birth? Well you have to understand that once there were no humans, and then there were, so we are expected to believe that a monkey sired a human. When two monkeys mate what they get is a monkey not a human. So the first human must have arisen some other way, thus a virgin birth. You see the impossibility that humans are the result of multiple genetic mutations is just too fantastic to contemplate. Monkeys breed consistently and what they get are more monkeys. If humans arose from monkeys, the monkeys should have died out, but they haven't paraclete  posted on  2016-03-21   2:53:39 ET  Reply   Trace   Private Reply   #71.

They had not the mythical taste. And yet the very matter which they set down in their artless, historical fashion — those narrow, unattractive jews, too blind to the mystical wealth of the Pagan world around them — was precisely the matter of great myths. If ever a myth had become a fact, had been incarnated, it would be just like this. And nothing else in all literature was just like this. Myths were like it in one way. Histories were like it in another, but nothing was simply alike. And no person was like the Person it depicted; as real, as recognizable, through all that depth of time… yet also so luminous, lit by a light from beyond the world, a god. But if a god — we are no longer polytheists — then not a god, but God. Here and here only in all time the myth must have become fact; the Word, flesh; God, Man. This is not "a religion," nor "a philosophy." It is the summing up and actuality of them all. C.S. Lewis Truth Is Still Truth Even If You Don't Believe It.
