Donald Trump is a joke, that's why.

"Bobby Jindal is so white he goes to the 7/11 to BUY stuff." is a favourite.

Swith: It's because you're so awesome. God himself refreshes the screen before he types just to see if Nightkill has written anything while he was off somewhere else.

I think it's probably still okay to point out that Walker is not a good Republican presidential choice because Clinton is more popular.

Not that Clinton is guaranteed to be the Democratic candidate - but one school of thought says that the best Republican candidate is going to be the one with the bets chance of beating the best Democratic one.

If your point was that Trump was the best representative because you're suggesting that Republicans are assclowns - it's not that I don't get it, I just think it's unhelpful and wrong.

There have been - and are - Republicans that are not at the extremist nonsense end of the spectrum. It's just that they aren't running for President.

Right. It's because the party has been taken over by the assclown contingent, and this point I'd say the best thing could happen would be for the Elephant to implode under the weight of its own idiocy, and for the "moderate" conservatives to form a different party.

The quickest, and by far the most entertaining, way for this to come about is to have the biggest, loudest assclown of them all take the party nomination.

Hence, Trump 2016!

If be "doing great" you mean "slightly losing less than everyone else", then yes.

Bobby Jindal's favorite Indiana Jones movie is Temple of Doom.

Jeb is who I'm geared towards for the GOP nomination. That's because I fucking hate Rand Paul and Ted Cruz.

He's certainly not the worst candidate. On the other hand, he's way too old.

I'm ok with Romney light, with more consistently. I would love to see Condoleezza rice run.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Maybe he means that 11th Commandment thing that Reagan invented 30 years ago. But I think that went out the window when the Rino thing started, say, about 5 or 6 years ago. Then again, this is a forum, not a functioning part of either party...C'est la vie!

Norway.

But Norway may have another country picking up a lot of the tab for their national security and some of their real defense costs. Oh, wait, it just might be the US. Those clever Norwegians! The Norwegians spend 1.5% or $6.4 billion of their GDP (2010 figures) for defense. The US is 4.8% or $698.3 billion in 2010. But in 1988, Norway spent 2.9% and the US was at 5.7% then. Source for figures: The Guardian.


How much of the U.S. budget went to protect Norway?
