Juan Williams is hardly far left. Another "Fox News Democrat", though not as bad as Kirsten Powers, or Pat Cadell or Doug Schoen. The only actual Fox News Lefty I've seen given much airtime years ago is Alan Colmes, and his airtime has virtually disappeared in the last few years. Beckel was ridiculed and marginalized and gone. CNN and MSNBC have actual Liberals on occasionally, Fox News not so much. And when the other networks have Conservatives on, they are actual Conservatives. Fox News fools their sheep by calling folks like I mentioned Democrats, like they represent Liberals, but nothing could be further from the truth.
Juan Williams is far left as was Colmes. Beckel had a drinking problem and that's why he's gone. Powers is smart. She knows that liberals don't have all the answers, so why continue the lie by pretending they are always right? Same goes for the conservatives. She moved to the center. She matured as a person.
Both sides have good points and both sides have their radicals. Pretending otherwise is silly.
Oh booo Trump's not a real conservative. GOOD! Make some shit happen during his 8 years in office. Negotiate and make deals. Don't waste another 8 years crying and blaming the other side like the last guy.
Trump 2016!
[h=2]Happy families! Trump's children and wife Melania paint him as the perfect father and doting husband who treats women equally, although Ivanka dodges question about her friendship with Chelsea Clinton[/h]
The billionaire's wife Melania, daughters Ivanka and Tiffany, and sons Eric and Donald Jr, answered an array of personal questions from Anderson Cooper. The group showered the real estate mogul in praise as they talked about their upbringings, their relationships with him and how his race for the White House affected them. They were all unwavering in their support for The Donald and insisted he would do amazing things if he was elected President. The questions, mainly from Trump supporters or undecided voters, didn't provoke any surprising answers. But tensions rose when Ivanka dodged a question about her friendship with Chelsea Clinton and was forced to explain why she and Eric had not registered to vote in the New York primary. Donald Jr's daughter Kai Madison also joined in the appearance by sitting on her dad's knee.

Juan Williams is in the center, Colmes is actually a Liberal. Drumpf Making Good Deals???? That's just nonsensical Drumpf Campaign rhetoric. How many Bankruptcies is he gonna bring America to while he's making them? You have to know how the game is played to make deals, he has no fuckin clue. Monty Hall or Kevin O'Leary would have better shots to make good deals. The last(current) guy actually got this country back on track after his disastrous predecessor. Markets almost tripled, Unemployment almost halved, No more 911 style attacks. Considering what he was handed, he's done an adequate job, and will be handing over a far better situation then he got. If it's to a clueless idiot like Drumpf, it will be unraveled within days.
unemployment isn't 5%. No one believes it. The math doesn't make sense. 100 million out of the workforce, 13 million more on food stamp and millions more living in poverty. Nice try. Bernie Sander's doesn't believe it. Only left wing hacks believe the nonsense.
Obama had nothing to do with the Market. After a recession, markets only have one direction to go. It would be like praising a skydiver for how he descends to the ground after jumping from the plane when everyone knows gravity is the reason.
Trump has made hundreds of deals and almost all of them he won. That's why he's a multi billionaire. You want to focus on the 4 times his companies filed for chapter 11 which was perfectly legal. Yet you call him clueless. I am sure you are much more successful lol. Trump's a genius. The facts prove it.
Trump is the best candidate running and it's not even close.
The Unemployment number is 5%,and is using the same metrics as when it was higher, under both Obama and W, and every POTUS.
Drumpf is absolutely clueless in the ways of the world Politically. He would get embarrassed on the world stage, but worse, would thoroughly embarrass America, as Foreign leaders are already stating to our leaders. I'm not running genius, and yes, I would be as clueless as Drumpf, except I'd actually admit it willingly.
Drumpf is a genius at one thing. Saying stupid, easy to follow, short, simple , empty stuff to clueless idiots who eat it up. That and whining about how unfair everything is, which is especially funny coming from a guy who was born 10 feet from Home Plate thinking he hit a Home run. Drumpf's candidacy is equivalent to Pat Paulsen's. Except America, and Paulsen treated that as the joke it was.
Ted Cruz's aggressive campaign for delegates and controversial victory in Colorado will likely thwart Trump on a second ballot
Sen. Ted Cruz's campaign is making use of a rule that says delegates assigned to Donald Trump don't have to be Trump supporters
Cruz's team is working at a local level to get Cruz-supporting delegates selected to go to the GOP convention instead
This plan would allow delegates 'bound' to Donald Trump to then vote for Cruz during the second ballot
Trump will win on the first ballot only if he receives a majority of support, which is 1,237 Republican delegates, a goal he's likely to fall short on

Sen. Ted Cruz's aggressive campaign to put pro-Cruz delegates on the road to the convention seems to be paying off.
A new Washington Post analysis finds that Cruz will pick up at least 130 more delegates using this strategy and that's a conservative estimate, with more than 170 delegates added to his roster more likely.
That's enough delegates to kill Donald Trump's path to the nomination if all goes according to the Texas senator's plan.

Sen. Ted Cruz picked up all of Colorado's delegates this weekend by paying close attention to how the people are selected, in this case a series of selection conventions
Cruz is betting on Trump not getting the necessary 1,237 delegates – a majority – by the end of the GOP nominating contests on June 7.
Right now Trump still has a narrow path to clinching the Republican nomination outright, but he would have to win by greater margins in the upcoming primaries than he has to this date.
Meanwhile, Cruz is fewer than 200 delegates behind, so a swing of 150 or so on the second ballot is substantial.
Additionally, as the rules stand now, candidates must have won a majority in eight states in order to be considered for the nomination, which means that only Trump and Cruz are currently eligible, though the RNC's rules committee could make a change.
The point of having primaries and caucuses is to elect delegates that then go to the parties' nominating conventions in the summer to make their pick for the nominations.
How those delegates are assigned to a candidate varies, with some states doling out delegates on a winner-take-all basis – like Ohio – and others divvying them up by the winner of each congressional district and other smaller areas.
On the first vote for the Republicans, 95 percent of these delegates are 'bound' meaning that they have to vote for the person who was selected by the voters in their geographic region.
After that, on the second ballot, 1,800 delegates from 31 states, which is nearly 60 percent, become unbound from that candidate, the Post's analysis noted.
By round three, 80 percent of the delegates are unbound.
What Cruz is doing is working a ground game to ensure that the actual, human delegates are his own supporters, willing to switch from Trump to Cruz if the billionaire fails to meet the 1,237 majority on the first ballot and then voting goes to a second.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus was having none of The Donald's grumbling, suggesting that the frontrunner's campaign should have been paying better attention to the rules
That strategy has been most evident in Colorado, where Republicans decided against holding a caucus this year.
A plan to hold a primary failed during last year's legislative session.
So instead delegates were chosen through a series of conventions, starting at the county level and moving up to state-wide.
On Friday, seven congressional districts picked three delegates each, with the 21 people picked all supporters of Cruz.
On Saturday at the state convention, another 13 delegates were selected and they all support Cruz too, meaning he picked up 34 in total from the state.
This tally got The Donald mad, as he was clearly out-gamed.
'The system is rigged. It's crooked,' Trump declared on Fox and Friends Monday morning.
Beyond Colorado, Cruz has allies coming in from Iowa, Virginia, Indiana, South Carolina and a number of other areas where Trump won, amounting to the 150 or so that the Washington Post is projecting.
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio has petitioned the 21 states where he won delegates to have them stay bound to him for the first ballot, in an effort to thwart Trump as well.
Trump spent the last two days complaining that he's being robbed because of these rules.
Last night the Republican National Committee's chairman responding via a tweet.
'Nominating process known for a year + beyond,' wrote Reince Priebus. 'It's the responsibility of the campaigns to understand it. Complaints now? Give us all a break.'
