I understand that we, the U.S., started bombing Syria in support of the Syrian people, who wanted to remove a brutal dictator, Asad. Now ISIS, fills the vacuum and controls territory in Syria and Iraq and the bombings and atrocities multiply. The people after seeing the atrocities, their city reduced to rubble and tens of thousands killed are fleeing the country in droves. Now the U.S. doesn't want to take in refugees? Were we really trying to help the people? While I believe thorough vetting of refugees is wise, I don't think this is helping our image in the middle east.

Ben, you won't get elected as president. You were a quack of a surgeon and have endless mal-practice law suits against you pending.
Now take your gay soft spoken demeanor, go to Africa and help some little black kid.

Gee Donald, thanks for blogging it here for all to see. How would you like it if someone embarrassed you that way? Tell me, please!
November 27, 2015 at 10:10 am |
Donald Trump
I can't understand how you have the nerve to run for president. With the exception of the idiots in Iowa, no other state will support you. I mean who wants a pathological nut in the White House? Especially one that went after his mother with a hammer.
Go home ben. You will never even get nominated.

You're probably right but I can dream, can't I? Besides, don't rub it in about my being an idiot, please.

Oh. And take Megan Kelly with you. This country could use a break from that chatter mouth with all of her yellow journalism.

And by the way, Meagan took the bar exam 4 times before she could pass it. Not only that, but she was at the bottom of her class. She lost so many cases for her clients that she eventually quit practicing law. Now she is trying to be a news anchor. Well good luck with that.
Total loser.

Doing your job? A monkey in a circus can do a better job in its work environment then you can.
No need to tell me where I can go. Look at her. Upset, emotional, and blood from wherever.

Good grief, Donald, aren't you afraid of hurting her feelings? If I were her, I'd feel plenty hurt. I really would.

Do us all a favor Meagan. Take another unscheduled 11 day vacation. We could all use it.

Dear Mr. Trump:
If you care so much about the veterans, why don't you donate 99% of your money to that cause. Someone more of a man than you could ever be donated 99% of $45 billion dollars to many good causes.
And you?

Suggestion for an entire GPS segment: focus the segment on this question: "Assuming the U.S./NATO/others engage ISIS militarily and defeat it, what will then be required to create a stable government in Syria that will protect and provide for its people and thereby prevent terrorists from using Syria as a base?" Related questions might include: How many troops would it take to occupy Syria and how long would they need to be stationed there? How much would it cost for the occupation, the rebuilding of Syria's economy, and the creation of a stable government? These and other important questions could be addressed by the best military, economic, and political minds. Policymakers and political candidates don't appear to be examining these questions sufficiently. And yet it is crucial to have this conversation in order for the American public to understand what it would take to root the terrorists out of Syria and create a lasting peace in Syria so that other terrorists would not be able to use Syria as a base for their operations.
December 8, 2015 at 9:00 pm |
Marine5484
The best thing we can do for Syria is to recognize the Assad regime as the only legal government Syria has and to join the Russians and the Iranians in their efforts to defeat ISIS. In other words, we need to quit trying to take over other countries, especially the Muslim ones. This is what helps ISIS.

Message for Fareed Zakaria:
Dear Mr. Zakaria,
I watched your GPS last Sunday (12/13/15) and again was enlightened and inspired. I was only disappointed by one thing you said, namely, that you are an immigrant, but for one resason only: It means, sadly, that you cannot run for president of the U.S.!
Plase keep up the good work.
Gratefully yours,
JR

Read your blog about jihadist raping American women ... What the hell were you thinking... Have you lost what was once a fine mind?
No I haven't, Robert. If I get elected and I will this fall, we'll continue killing as many of these so-called jihadists as possible.
