Hillary: In Libya "we didn't lose a single person"
Except for those four guys in Benghazi, who still don't count to her.
Here:
"Now, is Libya perfect? It isn't." Clinton said. After contrasting her approach toward Libya with the ongoing bloodshed in Syria's civil war, Clinton said "Libya was a different kind of calculation and we didn't lose a single person ... We didn’t have a problem in supporting our European and Arab allies in working with NATO."
Ted Cruz piling on Donald Trump as divisive like Obama reminds me of . . .
. . . the mushy headed liberal George W. Bush smearing Pat Buchanan as a 1920s nativist.
New Hampshire taught us that nothing John Kasich says can be taken seriously
December 28th: “If I get buried in New Hampshire, it’s over.”
February 9th: Trump 35.3% over Kasich 15.8% in New Hampshire (2.2:1)
March 14th: "This is the craziest election that we've had in decades. And I'm taking things one day at a time."

It's hard to overstate what an ignoramus is Mark Levin about tariffs and trade
Mark Levin is a lawyer, not an historian, and not an economist, and not much of a hail fellow well met, either. Always seeking approval at others' expense, he should rather seek to convince without spite than to confound without understanding.
His tariff rant this evening ignores that the America of his precious founders was a tariff regime until the dreaded income tax of 1913.
The America of the founders was also a limited government for that reason until that very day.
But open wide the avenue for revenue, and you open the maw of the Leviathan and crawl into it.
We haven't been the same since, slowly dissolving in its mandibular juices on our way to the shit pile of history.
If Mark Levin had any brains about the founding, he'd know this.
Ted Cruz' many flip-flops: Obamatrade, foreign workers, illegal alien amnesty, birthright citizenship, Edward Snowden, crop insurance
Nicely detailed with links by Laura Ingraham, here.
John Kasich would legalize all illegals within the first 100 days of his presidency, which would open the floodgates to millions more
Noted here in a list of all Kasich's extreme positions on illegal immigration:
In last Thursday’s CNN debate, Kasich told voters that he would enact the largest amnesty in U.S. history within his first 100 days in office. “For the 11 and a half million who are here, then in my view if they have not committed a crime since they’ve been here, they get a path to legalization. Not to citizenship. I believe that program can pass the Congress in the first 100 days,” Kasich said.
Defectors from Cruz to Trump are getting through to talk radio this morning
To both the Laura Ingraham Show and the Chris Plante Show, citing the failure of Cruz to stick to principle over the left's attacks on Trump rally attendees in Chicago.

Trump: The man without a compass goes from racist to violent ideologue in one week
The hysteria continues.
And if that doesn't work, they'll try something else next week.
Prediction: Marco Rubio will become a Democrat after his US Senate term expires
Yeah, I know, whattayamean after.
Losing the propaganda war: Foolish Rush Limbaugh's big Lewandowski problem
Rush Limbaugh let his partisanship for Ted Cruz show on Friday when he prematurely ejaculated all over the Corey Lewandowski non-story here and here before it became clear here and here that Michelle Fields is just trying to sell her boobs new book.
Friday was a very bad day for Rush Limbaugh and the other Ted Cruz propagandists.
None of them dared touch the radioactive bombshell Drudge stories showing Ted Cruz has been faking his Southern Baptist bona fides. ("If we don't cover it, it doesn't exist").
Limbaugh's attempt to make the Carson endorsement of Trump the story of the day instead of Cruz' lies about his background utterly failed.
And now the Lewandowski story falls apart.
But expect no mea culpas from Limbaugh or any of the others.
They're just a pack of weasels.
Who's the worse liar, Obama or Cruz?
Obama lied (among many other things) about his mother's health insurance, but Cruz lied about his religion.
Hmmmmmmmm.
Legal immigrant for Trump expresses outrage that illegals try to cut in line when his family complied with the law
This morning in Bloomington, Illinois at a rally for Trump.
Constitutional law prof featured in WaPo argues Ted Cruz is ineligible to be president
Mary Brigid McManamon, constitutional law professor at Widener University’s Delaware Law School.
Here on January 12th:
Donald Trump is actually right about something: Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) is not a natural-born citizen and therefore is not eligible to be president or vice president of the United States.
Trump: News cameras zoom in on rally disruptions, never pan to show the thousands supporting him
Here:
Interruptions have become so common that they fit into a part of Trump’s familiar talking points. He complains that news cameras won’t pan a venue to show the breadth of his following when he asks. But, he insists, those lenses will peer into the crowd if a protest breaks out. “The dishonest, disgusting media,” he said at The Midland. Saturday night, he pledged to press charges against anyone who disrupts his speeches. “They have to explain to Mom and Dad why they have a record!” he said. The crowd hooted in appreciation.
Good idea!
Flashback: 20% of self-identified conservatives voted for Obama in 2008*
*Tony Blankley, American Grit (Washington, D.C.: Regnery, 2009), 185.
And it looks like they'll be voting for Hillary in 2016.
John Kasich also has too few signatures to run in Illinois, but no one cares!
Ain't democracy wonderful? John Kasich doesn't care about the rules, and neither does anyone else!
Here:
CHICAGO, Jan. 13 (UPI) -- Despite not receiving the minimum number of signatures required in all congressional districts in Illinois, Ohio Gov. John Kasich will remain on the ballot.
Last week was the deadline for candidates to submit signatures to appear on the ballot in the state's March 15 primary. Kasich did not have enough valid signatures in the 1st, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th congressional districts, according to the Illinois State Board of Elections. In the 14th district alone, he is short by 779 signatures.
Kasich campaign admits it doesn't have enough valid signatures to run in Pennsylvania
Here:
HARRISBURG — Ohio Gov. John Kasich’s own lawyer agrees the presidential campaign submitted fewer valid signatures than are required for the candidate to appear on Pennsylvania’s primary ballot. But he argued in court Wednesday that it doesn’t matter because an objection to Mr. Kasich’s nominating petitions was filed 13 minutes too late.

Black Lives Matter, Bernie Sanders supporters and move on dot ogre were responsible for shutting down Chicago Trump rally
Noted here:
And perhaps more to the point, who were these protesters? As some MSM outlets almost reluctantly reported, it was a mixed bag of Black Lives Matter activists and Bernie Sanders supporters. ...
And when you need to organize this many marchers, you can’t do it without MoveOn.org taking credit and rounding up the troops. This was staged well in advance by a group of protesters who organized it via Facebook.
Leftists shut down Trump rally in Chicago through sheer numbers, intimidation and violence
From a legal immigrant who was there, here:
What I did see, however, was fear. Fear from the rally attendees for their immediate safety, and fear of Donald Trump from the protesters.
More than that, I feel that I experienced today, for the first time in my life, true totalitarianism and authoritarianism, expressed laterally from citizen to citizen, in order to silence opinions from being shared. This enforcement was shared through sheer numbers and intimidation, and in a few cases, violence.
People brought their children, loved ones, and friends to attend the Trump rally. I saw an older Asian man and his white wife in attendance, and the looks on their faces when the rally was declared cancelled almost broke my heart. I saw scared children clinging to their parents’ sides as they exited the building to the screams of protesters. I saw a quiet, but excited crowd of Donald Trump supporters get thrown out of Chicago.
Worst of all, I saw the first amendment trampled, spit on, and discarded like trash.

Only Michael Savage talked on the radio today about the Ted Cruz religion story
And even though he's a Jew, Michael Savage grasped the meaning:
Ted Cruz is a phony because he claims to be a mainstream evangelical when he's really part of the Christian lunatic fringe.
Do we really want such a person in the Oval Office?
That's all.
Rush tries to make the story today about Ben Carson instead of Ted Cruz' religion, throws Carson under the bus for endorsing Trump
Here:
CARSON: Some people said, "But, well, you know, he said terrible things about you; how can you support him?" Well, first of all, we buried the hatchet. That was political stuff. And, you know, that happens in American politics. The politics of personal destruction and all that is not something that I particularly believe in or anything that I get involved in. But I do recognize that it is a part of the process. We move on because it's not about me; it's not about Mr. Trump. It's about America. And this is what we have to be thinking about. I have found, in talking with him, that, you know, there's a lot more alignment philosophically and spiritually than I ever thought that there was.
RUSH: Okay, well, that's... I'm sitting here thinking, "If that's just politics, why are you so upset at Ted Cruz for believing what CNN tweeted about leaving the campaign and heading back to Florida?" Well, no, I'm just asking. Well, yeah. "How can you support Trump? He said some terrible things about you." "Well, we buried the hatchet. It's political stuff, you know? That kind of stuff happens in politics." Well, he must not have forgiven Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz didn't do anything! Ted Cruz never said anything like what Trump said about Ben Carson. But we're not through here. Carson continued...
Flashback to last June here:
Dr. Benjamin Carson is one of the finest, most accomplished human beings on this planet who has done more for people than most people in politics will ever do. And he's done it personally, not with other people's money. Dr. Ben Carson is a first-class human being and citizen. He is exactly the kind of person that you could trust running any government institution. You would trust him to babysit your kids. He's just an admirable human being. He has overcome great odds. He's brilliant. He's temperate. There is everything in the world to recommend about the humanity of Dr. Benjamin Carson, and here he is on CNN today ripped and said it's unfortunate that somebody like Ben Carson will be made to look serious when Trump gets in as the clown.
Rush Limbaugh talks about anything to avoid the Ted Cruz bombshell story of the day
For a guy who claims to take his daily agenda from the headlines, Rush Limbaugh sure made a point of not talking about them today because the headlines crucify his hero Ted Cruz as the liar Donald Trump has been telling us he is since Iowa.
In the process Rush made an ASS of himself, ultimately comparing Donald Trump to Sean Penn, and even attacking the credibility of Ben Carson, who endorsed Trump this morning.
What a jerk. Previously Limbaugh called Carson, and more than once, one of the finest people alive.
These were easily the most telling three hours about the limitations of one Rush Hudson Limbaugh since his prescription drug scandal years ago.
A truly pathetic performance unworthy of the conservative cause.
Campaigning for Cruz: Limbaugh compares Donald Trump to Sean Penn. Isn't such a comparison a tactic of the left?
He just said Trump admires the strength of the Chicoms putting down the Tiananmen Square freedom movement the way Sean Penn admires the likes of communist strongmen Chavez and Castro.
See?
Update:
Here's the money quote:
[Trump] was simply admiring the strength or pointing out what a powerfully strong government can do. Hey, this is why what's-his-face, Sean Penn, loves Castro. It's why Sean Penn loved what's-his-face down in Venezuela, Hugo Chavez. They envied the power. No question about.
Rush is willing to jettison conservative principles and cross this line because his loyalty to Ted Cruz is more important than those things are.
Total hypocrite.

Ted's a dominionist, so now we know what's the matter with Kansas (24 delegates)
And Idaho (20 delegates).
So lying Ted Cruz has been misrepresenting himself as a Southern Baptist when he's really a Pentecostal
And a pretty kooky Pentecostal at that:
While Ted Cruz proudly proclaims he is an Evangelical Christian, his campaign takes pains to hide the truth that Cruz and his pastor father, Rafael Cruz are Pentecostal Christians, a fact further hidden by having Ted and Heidi Cruz’s belong to the congregation of First Baptist Church, a Southern Baptist church in Houston, as their home church. ...
Rafael Cruz is a pastor with Purifying Fire International Ministry, although in January 2014, as Ted Cruz was preparing his presidential swing, Rafael Cruz scrapped the group’s website after various blogs began identifying the ministry as rooted in “a radical Christian ideology known as Dominionism or Christian Reconstructionism.”
Dominionism calls on anointed Christian leaders to take over government to make the laws of the nation in accordance with Biblical laws. Rafael Cruz, at the Pastor Larry Huch’s New Beginnings mega-church in Bedford Texas, outside Dallas, on Aug. 26, 2012, in a Dominionist sermon proclaimed his son, Ted Cruz, to be the “anointed one,” a Dominionist Messiah who would bring God’s law to reign.
Some people could sincerely mistake Ted Cruz for having followers who salute him like a Hitler, too
Video here, where they're really "laying on hands".
