G.E. still exists in the U.S. They got the government to ban regular light bulbs. They then packed up production to China. I would have hit every bulb that returned back to the U.S. with a 200% tax.

GE could very easily get up and move every division overseas, and so can other large corporations.

No they won't.

Odd, I never once said that. I said I wasn't voting for him but that I hope he wins the GOP nomination. So to summarize here. You asked me a question. I answered it and then you made a bogus attack towards me.

Bravo.

Are you saying that Trump is full of crap?

Did you mean like Truman? Have you been to the Truman library (I like Truman, but threatening to nuke the Russians a couple of times was pretty bold)?

Dex, you're listenting to too much MSNBC. oops, MSNBC didn't mean to put up the nice video.

A black man said we got to stop this race baiting and the David Dukes come out of the wood work around this time and the camera man or who ever at MSNBC says "wrong video". What's wrong with showing that whites and blacks get along just fine.

Did MSNBC intend to race bait?

Media is sounding more like Rubio every hour. They don't want to ride in the clown car unless they can be clowns too. Can't wait to see the dust up between Kelly Megan or Megan Kelly or whatever her name is and Chuck Todd.

Kelly: you beaver faced buck tooth fool

Todd : put that cookie down, it's enough that you sound like Rosie O you don't need to hold your own on the tetter totter too.

Stay out of this Chris Wallace: you owe us, we talked your dad out of putting you up for adoption.
