The Donald telling it like it is

[URL=.html][IMG][/IMG][/URL]



We've all heard that the Donald admirers love him because "he tells it like it is". Wonder if they feel that way now -

"When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time,” Mr. Trump said.

Blaming 9/11 on Mr. Bush is taboo for Republicans and has largely been off-limits for Democrats. Pressed on whether he really meant to blame the attacks on Mr. Bush, the billionaire developer did not back down.

“He was president, O.K.?,” Mr. Trump said. “The World Trade Center came down during his reign.”

He has no reservations saying things to knock down the establishment GOP in his selfish pursuit of the nomination.

from what I can tell.

And it's amazing that the truth about 9/11 was strongly hinted at by the MSM earlier this year, but very few paid any attention to the revelation.

He would have been impeached, imprisoned and probably on death row right now.

going to take this lying down. People who openly cross the BCF tend to get disappeared or suicided.

Wonder if they have the nerve to take out Il Douche for reminding people of the FACTS.

Several months back the blog dissed the Republican/conservative group big time. In a really scathing letter, the blogger called conservative groups a blight on America, Republicans a disgrace and a party void of ideas. He was really criticized by the party and conservatives as being a traitor. It is now on my favorite list.

From Wikepedia:

After eight years of being a leading right wing blog, LGF started condemning racism and the far-right (especially the Belgian party Vlaams Belang). After that, the site abruptly switched sides and now "LGF has become better known for the various fights it picks with many on the right. During the transition period, Johnson deleted many of his more extreme past entries on the site, deleted entire comment sections, and banned many of the former right wing commentators from the site.

More recently, in 2009, he has claimed that:

I don’t think there is an anti-jihadist movement anymore... It’s all a bunch of kooks. I’ve watched some people who I thought were reputable, and who I trusted, hook up with racists and Nazis. I see a lot of them promoting stories and causes that I think are completely nuts.[4]
