The state of the GOP
 

I think two memorable moments from the past week were Gov. Rick Perry asserting dark crowded movie theaters would be better off with lots of firearms...

...and then following it up by challenging Donald Trump to a pull up contest.

Did that guy from Ohio get in the race?

Is anyone else besides Trump (and Perry) still running?

Both Parties live in a toilet. Any other thought is based in BS. Look at the DEM challengers Hillary?? Really. No one has taken more big business money. Sanders. How well will a "socialist" poll in the Midwest. Sorry but this election will be decided by TMZ just like the last two.

Besides that what is wrong with responsible people legally carrying for self defense. Not my cup of tea but given the recent rise of gun violence by people who carry illegally in my area my mind is opening to the option.

Ever shot in low light situations? I have, and I'd prefer me and several others be armed and at least able to defend ourselves if the situation ever arose. 90% of "mass shootings" are in Gun Free zones, whats that tell you?
The more I see and read from Rand Paul the more I like him. Term limits, tax code etc etc ..

I had this exact discussion this morning. It's like watching a season of professional wrestling. Or better yet, like watching everyone jump out of a clown car.

That's because this far out, the most vocal and flamboyant candidates (read, the freaks) get all the press.

Spence would have you believe that Donald Trump represents the whole party, even though 80% of registered republicans prefer someone else. Trump and Bernie Sanders are getting a lot of press, I have a better shot at getting chosen as a Vidal Sassoon model (I'm bald) then either of them has of getting elected.

Spence, what's your problem with "the guy from Ohio" exactly? I guess he comes across as a bit of a bumpkin, but if all you care about is a smooth talker who has zero common sense, Weird Harold shows us what happens when we go that route.

Look at the political leanings of states with highest/lowest debt. Or states that are losing population versus those that are adding jobs. In the face of that, all you can do is what you just did, lob personal attacks.

Spence, did Al Sharpton represent your entire party when he ran? Does he speak for you? Or is it possible that both parties have a certain freak element?

Neither Trump nor Perry will be around after Super Tuesday, it's a disgrace that Trump will be in the first debate, and not someone like Bobby Jindal.

I saw a good post the other day, it said, "asking the American people to pick a good representative from the republican or Democratic Party, is like telling them to eat healthy at McDonald's or Burger King. "

this is like making fun of someone's new car while you are riding around on a crappy old moped :heybaby: the GOP has quite a few options....looks like "recruit Biden" is the dems last hope currently....haaaaaaaaaaaaa

Did anyone else waste 2 hours watching that "debate" last night? Fox News should be embarrassed.

One of the funnier moments. My observation was there wasn't much debate, just FOX trying to stir the pot.

Watched it last night - mediocre. Probably put a good nail in the Trump coffin.

Dying to see Hillary and Bernie Sanders - I am going to arrange an online drinking game where you take a sip for every swig for every Marxist slogan and a swig for every time they try to come across as tough on liberty and and strong foreign policy

#hashtagsmatter

Yes - how many shootings / killings are caused by legal armed crazy people versus how many caused by sane people with illegal guns.

Numbers are not close but we only hear about one of them on the news.

Jump out, while moving 10mph, and then trying to jump back in again.

I can't beleive trumps response to calling women fat pigs! Sorry Rosie lol

In that drinking game, Eril Flynn and Richard Burton would be dead 5 minutes in.

The Clintons gave 15M to charity over the last few years. Sounds great, right?. Turns out 14.8 million of that, went to their foundation, from which they reimburse themselves for lavish travel expenses, and give themselves a podium on which to promote their agenda. The word 'disgusting' doesn't even come close.

Fox is clearly in the tank for Jeb Bush, #^&#^&#^&#^& Fox and him.
Trump is an ass but he reflects how most feel with our elected officials, pissed off.
Too bad he doesn't have any answers or solutions.
Christie must have got lessons from his buddy Obozo on how to blame the guy before him.
Ben Carson is the guy I'll support if he can get the nomination of the party.

The Clinton's have multiple charities. They donate most of their money to the Clinton Family Foundation which acts as a distribution point for donations to other charities, though from what I've read most of their money is applied directly.

For the most part you're just parroting the original WSJ opinion piece that all the pundits jumped on not realizing it was severely flawed.

Why some conservatives enthusiastically favor Trump over establishment Republicans:

http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/2015/0.../?subscriber=1

Trump is not my choice. I prefer either Cruz, Jindal, Carson, or Fiorina--and a combination of any two of them for Pres. and VP. But the Democrat-lite establishment leadership prefers to support their own Dem-lite guys, like Jeb Bush etc., and it invites the conservative base to bolt the party and give the election and future of the country to progressive socialist rule.

Those who think that, at this time, a plurality, or even a small majority of Americans won't vote for a socialist, might be right . . . but they may not be right.

If establishment conservatives actually offered a distinct choice to progressivism, Trump would not be a factor.

"They donate most of their money to the Clinton Family Foundation "

14.8M, out of 15.0M, to be precise.

"the original WSJ opinion piece that all the pundits jumped on not realizing it was severely flawed"

How was it flawed? Does the Foundation provide these weasels with perks (luxury travel, a platform to promote their agenda) or not?

Does that also include the $600,000/yr salary to Chelsea Clinton, nice girl ,I like her a lot, working for the Clinton Foundation?

WOW...that's almost as good as being Kennedy and working for Citizens Energy,,,,,those "non-profits" sure pay impressive salaries....wonder what you have to do to get one of those jobs?

Chelsea is also married to a hedge fund manager. Yu know, one of thos ehedge fund managers that Hilary is always blamoing for all the evil in the world.

Hilary is a lot like Liz Warren, aka Apache Chief. It's OK for them to be rich, but not anyone else.

Is that the same Hillary who invested $10,000 which was turned into $100,000
in like a few months????
Couldn't be, she was broke when she left the White House. :hihi:

The Clintons were homeless and broke when they stepped out of the white house....only to become rich stepping over the threshold entrance of one of their two mansions...:)

Prolly first perquisite would be willing to lie.

Chelsea didn't earn 600k a year working for the Clinton Foundation.

No that was an NBC, where despite having no experience, managed to core that salary. She also pulls in another 250k a year to serve on the Board Of Directors (since she has so much experience) at something called IAC.

But Hilary rails against the fact that the system is tilted in favor of the rich & powerful. No hypocrisy there, right Spence?

Justplugit is always close with his facts but wrong on important details.
