Not one of you has explained what is wrong with Trump's statement. You've bashed Trump, even said it might have credibility if it didn't come from Trump. So where is it false? Cite to the facts, please.

Hey COG, did you just SKIP the skewering of TRUMP'S allegations in this post? See enlarged portion disputing Trump. The BEST he did was "mostly true". That is kind of like being partially pregnant. Do you just LIKE being wrong a lot?

I didn't see anything countering his statement on Obamacare. I may have missed it. As far as I know, his statement on Obamacare was all factual.

I waiting to see that too. I'm sure someone will be along soon to factually dispute each and every one of the statements that the actual OP is about, not just ball-busting the guy saying it.

Ah, this is a wonderful little piece. You guys have fun with it. Don't let chumps, I mean Trump's statements get to ya though. He's just worried about his hair, lol.

C'mon ACP, you can do better than that!

There's not enough money in ANY government program that would be enough to support the Donald's hair.

Agreed, he needs to go with the Howie Mandel look.

CuteOldGullibleGuy, Trump did not write, compose, utter or send that email.

The same one was being sent all over web to the same clueless Republican email lists a year before and it was supposedly penned by "Maxine", the cartoon character.

Go Google it and quit posting like you know something! Trump didn't say it AND WTF completely debunked Trump's credibility by showing the Truth-O-Meter on some of the other idiotic statements he HAS made!

Read better sources, you email forwarding nitwits!

Notice the date and this was AFTER it was all over the web in emails from "Maxine"! http://www.newmexicoliberty.com/foru...e-on-obamacare

Will your next email 'factoid' be:

"631 Foot Shark Caught by Palin Within Eyesight of Her House"?

CuteOldGuy · 10-05-2011, 12:12 PM

Ok, so Trump didn't say it. What part of it is untrue?

Little Stevie · 10-05-2011, 12:28 PM

COG, the part where you said Trump said it means you don't fact check. Quit wasting our time and start by fact-checking the number insured under the plan. BTW, the name Obamacare is not mentioned anywhere in the bill either. I'm done doing YOUR due diligence. Why should I fact-check for someone who doesn't care if he posts fact or fiction? YOU check and then come back and apologize for the mistakes. I even gave you a hint about one! Right there are THREE listed errors!

Now go do some REAL research instead of lazily copying and pasting some snarky and badly-punctuated email you got from one of Karl Rove's poorly-paid shit stirrers. (Wait! I apologize for saying they are poorly-paid. I don't absolutely KNOW that!)

He MAY pay them extra to sound dumb to appeal to the Tea Terrorists and Whirly.

CuteOldGuy · 10-05-2011, 12:48 PM

I didn't say Trump said it, the OP did. I'm just asking for clarification. What part of it is false? I can't find anything, and I thought you could. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. Geez, you guys take this place TOO seriously.

CuteOldGuy · 10-05-2011, 12:50 PM

Ok, Maxine said it. Maxine is smarter than Trump anyway.
