Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft!

Tweet of the Day
@MegaLov44912995 You're delusional. The only thing Trump knows how to fix is how to buy your vote. He makes everything worse.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
@MegaLov44912995 The real problem with Trump is that he really doesn't understand his limitations. He has a superficial knowledge of things.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
What the hell is wrong with Cruz? Apple should unlock the San Bernardino suspect's iPhone? Does he even get the fact there is no master key?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
It's bad enough you have amateurs like Joe Scarborough discussing the iPhone issue in dismissive terms. Privacy is the guardian of liberty.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
One of the key reasons I decided not to support Rubio is that he bought into the NSA sales pitch on phone metadata. It's costly,ineffective.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I think that Cruz is afraid of being Rubioed on iPhone. Rubio has been arguing that Cruz is soft on terrorism because of modest NSA checks.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
The GOP conservatives need to avoid looking extreme on security; you don't protect liberty by eviscerating it. You are flirting with fascism— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Scarborough: "Apple is putting their rights as dead terrorists above the rights of living Americans". What's on the phone is speculative.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Scarborough is dismissive of privacy, noting Google can customize sales alerts. Big difference:Google can't force me to buy; I can opt out.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
As Judge Napolitano pointed out, the judge in the San Berardino case is trying to conscript Apple into building anti-privacy tools. Slavery!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
What Scarborough and other anti-liberty conservatives don't point out is the law of diminishing returns. Homicide in Chicago is bigger.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Thought of the Day: There is little historical evidence that sanctions have ever achieved their purpose. -B.Barlett https://t.co/rASi464ypf— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I have to comment on the Trey Gowdy kerfuffle. Someone planted a rumor that Gowdy had flipped from supporting Rubio. Gowdy has accused Cruz.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Cruz has nothing to gain by promoting an easily debunked rumor. This sounds like the work of a troublemaking, divide-and-conquer Trumpster.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I'm amused by the fact I've gotten more pushback from Texas nephews over endorsing Cruz than when I supported Rand Paul. I'm pro-liberty.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Trump once again is engaging in dirty politics,asserting a fabricated anti-Cruz quote by Tom Coburn. He is really citing a leftist commenter— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
No political candidate reflects my classical liberal views. I'm not happy with Cruz' flip on TPP, his neocon foreign policy, or immigration.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Responding against someone contradicting my Rand Paul tweet:But Rand Paul also rejected "Obamatrade", embraced a military campaign against ISIS, and is an immigration restrictionist.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Nope. He voted against FTA for TPP, hit Obama for the use of underwhelming force against ISIS, and voted against the Senate immigration bill— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I'm not a fan of Cruz' confrontational Senate tactics. So why support him? 12 endorsements Liberty Caucus, Scalia, Snowden, taxes, audit Fed— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Quote of the Day: "The Pope doesn’t get to judge whether people are Christian enough. Trump does."-Robby Soave. LMAO. re: Trump on Cruz.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian." - Pope Francis. Bien sûr!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I wonder if that's what Trump promised Palin: "I'm going to build a GREAT bridge in Alaska. And I'm going to make Russia pay for it."— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
"The Constitution does not require the Senate to give judicial nominees an up or down vote" - Ilya Somin, Volokh Conspiracy— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
We should build a wall of brass around the country. - John Jay, first chief justice of Supreme Court, regarding “Catholic alien invaders"— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Trump's criticisms of Pope Francis and his wall of brass against predominantly Catholic migrants are a reflection of anti-Catholic bigotry.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
WND headline: Did Pope Francis just condemn Donald Trump to hell? No. The Church teaches that one must be in a state of grace; God judges.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
Comedian Steve Crowder says the pope is hypocritical because the Vatican is behind walls.Now if you ask me if Donald Trump is in a state of grace, my opinion is that he is a narcissist and a hypocritical, judgmental Christian.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
In all fairness, Catholic League and Catholic Vote have spoken up on the Trump/Pope kerfuffle, providing pro-Trump Catholics some cover.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
I'm not buying the rationale of those Catholic groups. There is a real conflict here. US policy is out of step. https://t.co/KKX7HJrZbM— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) February 18, 2016
