Dad Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 "You may have heard that, but I did not say that. If you can do the job, good. But if not, exclude women from combat positions." You literally just said you said it. Rick wtf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tojin Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Part of me (the super-liberal part) is afraid to tune into the Republican debate for fear of either laughing too much to finish studying or becoming so horrified that I stop caring. The rest doesn't care enough about politics to watch it, though I'm sure someone will say something fuckin' stupid that'll get passed around Facebook for a while.

epicmemesbro Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 What channel or where is it streaming? I can't find it anywhere. And @ Dad I feel like Santorum is much like Huckabee in terms of trying to appeal to evangelical Christians and trying to get prayer back in schools... As for women on combat I personally don't care.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I'm going to willingly admit I am a Liberal. I'm tuning into the GOP debate because, to not hear both sides of the arguments that affect me as a US citizen is silly. Oh look, more in-fighting. funk's sake. There's like two members of the GOP with common sense up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andx Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 It sort of astounds me how the Republican party can't stop fighting itself long enough to pick up an election they'd be sure to win if they could just pick someone and stick to him/her. America's primed to oust Obama and the Democrats for at least a term but not if this bickering keeps up. Just to win the nomination you have to show yourself to be some ridiculous ultra conservative but to win the general election you need to be more of a moderate. The more fighting there is the more conservative the candidates have to make themselves out to be and the more they've ultimately shot themselves in the foot for the general election.

epicmemesbro Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 The party had ended up like this because of their failed efforts to get anything done even with the majority of lawmakers Republican.With Boehner quitting, things got worse. The party has a sort of identity crisis with people too split which explains why there's so many candidates. Trump made things worse. He was going to run as an independent, but then changed his mind and figured he'd get more support if he joined them. This didn't make the tea party to happy so I guess they endorsed candidates that would oppose trump.... To make things worse we got Christie running, as if his scandal from laster year didn't discourage this. To make things worse Carson doesn't grasp foreign policy well. Santorum and Huckabee won't get larger support since their demographic of endorsers are so few. Cruz messed up by defending Kim Davis. Rubio's policies are too moderate in other candidates eyes. Reminds me of that one democratic candidate who was originally a Republican but changed because he said "there are no moderate Republicans". With so many there will be little support split between each of them. As for Jeb he's in a category of his own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Paul said something I can agree with. "I think if we ban certain religions, if we censor the Internet, I think that at that point, the terrorists will have won." Keep that sheet up, and if neither Bernie nor O'Malley make it, I'll vote for this dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
