He looks a little like Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds facially.

One bad call from barely losing to (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 15 December 2015 23:56 (eight years ago) link

Caught some of Hannity out of Buffalo on the way home tonight, and he was complaining about Obama not bombing oil fields to choke off funding of Isis. "We need a wartime president." His wording reminded me of James Caan in The Godfather: "If I had a wartime consiglieri--a Sicilian--I wouldn't be in this shape. Pop had Genco, look what I got."

I hope someone in this debate gets panicky.

Besides the audience, you mean.

lol we DID bomb the oil fields just recently after holding off for a while

although the fine print of that article does suggest some hesitancy & inertia

did rubio, cruz and jeb all say "everyone understands" why people reacted to trump the way they did?

watching this debate i feel like i'm hallucinating getting attacked by terrorists once a month over the past eight years

Are Americans really more afraid than at any time since 9/11?

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:11 (eight years ago) link

I can't believe they're still running nine people out there. If school teams operated that way, we'd still be holding football tryouts in June.

Is the San Bernardino attack really being treated as a terrorist attack on some different level than a crazy guy shooting up a clinic in Colorado Springs?

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:14 (eight years ago) link

I'd like the moderators to ask these guys how they would fundamentally distinguish the San Bernardino shooting from the Colorado Springs shooting. Does it just boil down to the religion of the shooter?

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:15 (eight years ago) link

These guys are such dipshits all of them.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:16 (eight years ago) link

Which of these chumps keeps coughing off camera?

ask them about Dylann Roof

They should take all phones and screens away from these guys, lock them in a room, then just tell them they're the stars of a highly rated reality show. Then keep them in that room, forever, until they die. And then keep broadcasting it, so we can slowly watch them decompose.

Christie's tie is trying to escape.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:21 (eight years ago) link

I actually thought Christie said "And we stopped four dicks..." there--I thought his famous temper was taking hold.

Forget office, Jeb! has seriously aged over the course of his campaign.

Trump just claimed the Internet for America.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:27 (eight years ago) link

I think Trump wants to invade the internet.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:28 (eight years ago) link

I think a firewall that starts with a simple pop-up question--"Are you from Isis?"--would work just fine.

ironically being locked in a room and decomposing is kind what it's like to work for the government!

rap is dad (it's a boy!), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:30 (eight years ago) link

which one of these people would be best at running the day to day functions of the government?

rap is dad (it's a boy!), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:30 (eight years ago) link

like the really boring shit

rap is dad (it's a boy!), Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:32 (eight years ago) link

Well, if you conclude the day to day function of the government is indiscriminately killing and bombing, they'd probably all be OK at that.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:32 (eight years ago) link

Kill, kill, death, death.

i hope they preserve ben carson's brain when he dies

The dynamic seems pretty obvious. Anyone close stays clear of Trump for the time being; the people who confront him are Bush and Paul. Cruz and Rubio are after each other. Carson's barely in the picture.

clemenza, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:42 (eight years ago) link

Trump fighting with the crowd! What a fucking loon.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:45 (eight years ago) link

Ah, fuck it, I don't want to watch this shit. This is like eating 8 strips of bacon, a pint of gas station ice cream, then plopping down for a Two and half Men rerun marathon.

Josh you're never going to be president with that attitude

remember when petraeus was fired for telling obama something he didn't want to hear? "i'm involved in a bizarre and degrading sex scandal"

Mordy, Wednesday, 16 December 2015 02:49 (eight years ago) link

The office of President is outdated. It's all about the Facebook and Snapchat and Twitter. I will call up my friends on those services, and together we will make American great again.

I think I'm going to bern my Republican primary vote on Christie. I'm curious if he learned anything from #Bridgegate. Maybe he'll be a crook and get impeached after two years.

also he's a pretty #darkhorse candidate and it would be funny to see him make a run and be like lol i'm voting for that guy

Pretty good line by Jeb! (The exclamation belongs to my sentence.)
