Tell that to Trump, he never clarified what he wanted.

Politifact has a good article detailing his statements and the timelines.

nd - can you not see a difference between the two below statements?

I want a national database for all Muslims.

I want a national database for all refugees.

I stated that I agreed with the second.
I do not know how to make it any plainer.

Insofar as to Trump clarifying his position, here it is, again...

"But, certainly, I would want to have a database for the refugees, for the Syrian refugees that are coming in because nobody knows where they're coming from."

Are you related to my wife? Because she thinks she can read my mind, too...

From the link:

""After going through all of his comments from this past weekend, it seems that Trump definitely wants a database of Syrian refugees, and he hasn't ruled out the possibility of a database for all Muslims.""

You didn't say, "I want..." You said you agree with Trump's database wishes, which according to every news agency so far possibly includes that of a muslim database.

You should start your own news agency. Heck, all these jackals got it wrong I guess. NYTimes, WaPo, Newsweek...some pretty heavy hitters in there. ABC, NBC as well. Yet they're liars all apparently.

Please post where Trump once said he didn't want a muslim database.

I'll wait.

A reporter stated it. I am sure the reporter was a hardcore conservative like most reporters and was not using it for a "gotcha" moment.

Trump still wants a database/registry for all refugees.
With which, I agree.

If we were to go with all words without context, than Reagan said we would start bombing Russia in 5 minutes...

nd - not sure how you can manage to read what I said in the above and yet say I support a database for all Muslims.
That is not what I said and furthermore if you insist on stating that is my position I will send you a cease and desist letter.

nd - that's funny! You start off by saying that Trump said he wanted a database for all Muslims and now you are reduced to asking for me to post where he said he didn't want one!!!!
LOL

I'm not reduced to anything. You're claiming he doesn't want one when he said he did, never clarified he did not and many news agencies reported he did.

You're the only one arguing he doesn't want one.

Ergo, show me where he stated he didn't one a muslim database.

Again, I'll wait.

Notice he said he didn't suggest the database... Clever Donnie.... Of course he didn't suggest it...but he "absolutely" (Trump's word) agreed with creating a muslim database. He also said he wanted a refugee database.

Exactly! Good point! Megyn can't play that game with Ted tonight.

So, in an earlier post I had mentioned that Ted had the best endorsements. Someone lined that out today for me. Awesome!

Adding up the average score of all endorsements for each candidate:

Ted Cruz - 83% a "B"
Marco Rubio - 54% an "F";
Donald Trump - 56% an "F"
John Kaisch - 46% an "F"
