What insult? You brought up “pissed off” Texans. Are you one? Sure sounds like it. And you should quit stalking me around ECCIE.

Get YOUR facts straight....more sleight of hand from the left. The shameless fuckers!!

Cruz's campaign pointed out in a statement last week that O'Rourke has collected $172,000 from the J Street PAC, which supports Democratic candidates who favor a two-state solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Cruz called on O'Rourke to return the cash.

O'Rourke's campaign finance reports do show $170,000 in donations tied to J Street PAC but the money came from individual donors, not the J Street PAC.

Here's how it works: J Street PAC lists O'Rourke as one of the candidates it supports in the 2018 midterm elections and offers a link on its website for anyone to donate to O'Rourke directly. The PAC also hosted an event to collect individual donations to put directly toward his campaign. The Federal Election Commission calls these "conduit contributions ," which means both the individual donor and the organization that gathered the money must be listed on campaign finance forms.

The FEC doesn't consider conduit contribution as PAC money, a spokeswoman for the agency confirmed. Neither do campaign finance experts, who say the donations are more transparent than PAC donations.

"No, it's not a PAC donation," said Victoria Farrar-Myers, an expert on campaign finance at Southern Methodist University in Dallas.

While O'Rourke hasn't broken his pledge, it is fair for Cruz to point out he's getting support from a PAC. The J Street PAC could only legally donate $5,000 to O'Rourke in each election cycle.


Another time when you should put your brain in gear before you put your mouth in gear...I know that isn't possible!! Pack your bags...

I didn’t say he didn’t take any “Hollywood” money. I said it was limited because it was a federal race.

Read your own fucking link. He got no more than 2700 from any of them because that’s the law.

Compare that with the millions accepted by other candidates from superPACs.

And save your bellyaching for another forum.

And someOne who gives a rat’s ass.

You post only affirms my claim that Beto didn’t take PAC money. Period.

I think he has for the presidential run. But that’ll be over soon.

Thank you for your well wishes,

HAHAHAHSHSHSHSSHAHAHAH!!!!

Reading comprehension is your friend...you never learn with your head in the sand.


While O'Rourke hasn't broken his pledge, it is fair for Cruz to point out he's getting support from a PAC. The J Street PAC could only legally donate $5,000 to O'Rourke in each election cycle.


I sure you can't read that because...you can't handle the truth!!
The presidential race is already over...the dems can't win with the radical socialism they are proposing. They are doomed to repeat the 72' & 84' ASS WHIPPING!!
I already tried to propose a bet to anyone that thought other wise...no takers.

What is your definition of "ass whipping"?

Nixon won in 1972 with 520 electoral votes. In 1984 Reagan won with 525. As it so happened, I voted for both.

So what are you willing to bet on -- Trump garnering 520 or 525 electoral votes?

[bb1961]

No I was making the analogy that the radical left lose the presidential races by large margins when you have nominees like on display at the present time. You don't seem to understand the vast majority of the Americans voting block don't buy this radical socialism....oh I'm sorry I don't mean to be name calling.
When a party is ashamed of their ideology there is a problem.
They need to look further then the tip of their noses.
I guess you read my response to you SS question you asked over and over...facts are facts. Liars figure but figures don't lie.

This was my response to you SS question.

Support a failing system...sure.
In ten years if the age for "retirement" hasn't increased I will be able to collect in 2029.. I'm not counting on it or worried about it...things are going to change in regard to it because at the present rate it is going to be insolvent in 2039. I look foward to 10 yrs. of getting SOME of MY money back...ain't that GRAND. What a stellar program the the Gumment has set up!!
I guess it's like the fans of a losing team...they're still your team.
You don't need to ask me anything...I'm "one of the less educated ones".

I responded to your SS question in the other thread.

Above you state that "the vast majority of the Americans voting block don't buy this radical socialism".

You have made it very clear that you consider the Democratic contenders for POTUS to all be very left of center.

You also say "the radical left lose the presidential races by large margins when you have nominees like on display at the present time."

So if I follow your logic the Democratic contender will be far left of center no matter who it turns out to be, and when presidential nominees are far left of center they lose by large margins. True or false?

Not a problem. So I assume you do not believe Trump will win 520 electoral votes in November 2020. So what are you predicting as far as an electoral count for Trump in 2020?
