GOP Debate Threads

I'm not a republican and I think republicans say dumb **** and lies like all the time, but politifact does have a strong Dem bias. So much so that I would rank politifact as useless. This is coming from a dude that listens to KCPW/KUER and little else in the car.

thank you for being honest bro
 
well, I listened to the debate last night. I thought most of the candidates did well for themselves. Ben Carson is the real thing. Trump stands tall. Jeb is trying his best to pass for an acceptable conservative, which he isn't. Rand and Ted did a good job as well. Even Kasich was singing out the true conservative lines. Carly nailed Hillary: the very essence of crony politics and corruption. The Clinton way----lie.

really, after the whole private server lies, and the proven lies about the YouTube video "demonstration", when it comes right down it, nobody in their right mind can trust Hillary. Well, the dems will run her, and she might even win. But any of the Rep candidates would be better.

Someone get babe his pills, he's talking funny again.

Dal, intolerance doesn't speak well for you. Or this site, for that matter. What is this place, a little club for reverberating the party line? Canada going dead on free speech pretty much like the fundamentalist religions. . . . There's a reason why statists love compliance/conformity. . . .loss of freedom based in human rights. . . . is because the smart people who know best can't bear to leave other people to their own thinking.
 
Rand Paul gaining momentum, what a hit at Trump about China not being part of the TPP lol

Actually, Trump got it right. Sure the TPP doesn't formally include China up front, but what Trump said is that the stupid TPP will be manipulated by the Chinese who always find a way "in through the back door" and who are always smart enough to turn agreements like this to their own advantage. Rand didn't listen to what Trump said, and demonstrated he doesn't have the smarts to do business with the Chinese any more than Obama and the whole CFR/UN governance set.
 
I have leaned democrat for most of my life but I've liked certain Republican candidates and policies. I've always voted Democrat for President.

My tune is starting to change on issues like taxes and especially Obamacare...it is simply not working.

We need to help the disadvantaged but the number of people who take advantage of what should be a temporary helping hand is growing and hurting our country. As my own brother has shown me, it is all too easy to become a victim and believe that the government owes you something.

I thought last nights debate was quite substantive. Trump has a huge superiority complex which hilariously showed when he said that he had built up a business worth billions and didn't need to hear anything from Kacich. What an absolute tool and he'll be embarrassed out of the race shortly. The rest of the candidates come across as presidential material though, although something about Carson weirds me out.

I thought Fiorina and Rubio had the best showing. Fiorina especially strikes me as a pragmatic candidate. What do you guys think of her?
 
My dad's best friend has worked closely with Fiorina over the past few decades. He has been very impressed by her and believes she could make a great president. I haven't yet watched last night's debate, but I'm about to.

I'd never heard Fiorina talk before, but on balance she was the one who had the level head and the well-spoken and well-scripted lines. Yes, she is Presidential.

Lol you're such a troll... K I know who's opinion I can't take seriously...
 
Fiorina is the definition of fake. Talks about tough decisions she had to make when she was HP's CEO. Yeah? Like sending jobs overseas miss Fiorina? Instead of protecting American worker's interests? And she has the nerve to act like a Margaret Thatcher wannabe to attract the gullible. Go home Flowerina, you're softer than butter.

Did she send jobs overseas in order to be more competitive? Isn't the duty as CEO to the shareholders not the workers? ******** I know, but seriously.

I'm interested to know if there are other things besides her sending jobs overseas that inform your view of her.

HP geek speaking here, apparently. Margaret Thatcher was the one who bedazzled the conservatives with smart little quips that seemed to make sense, while actually serving "Er Majesty, the Queen". I did like the one about "The problem with Socialism is that sooner or later you run out of other people's money".

Rand Paul trading on his father's reputation as a straight shooter is about the closest thing we have to a real person in politics this election cycle. I prefer Ted Cruz because overall he represents my own views the best. I rank Ted Cruz as certain to take a bullet if elected in our day of vested interests, and I have to credit him as having the guts to stand up and try to re-instate a lot of American values. Why do we need the children of immigrants to do this for us? Because it's only those who have personal or at least second-hand experience with worse governments who can see what we are doing to ourselves in going down to merely unprincipled, corrupt politics like most other countries have been for decades. I know I'm fishing deep for hope, but the best hope this country has is that the wave of immigrants today will make the turn towards propagating the value of opportunity and hard work once again in our country. . . .the worst thing about this wave is that they are coming from some of the most Marxist school systems on the planet, and it might take a while for them to realize they've been sold a crock.

If you like what you see in Europe, or Canada, or Cuba. . . . Hillary will take you there.

welcome to the light!
 
Clinton is the definition of fake. Talks about tough decisions she had to make when she was secretary of statte. Yeah? Like not sendin extra security to protect the ambasdor in bengazi? And she has the nerve to act like a Royalto to attract the gullible. Go to prison Hillary, you're a criminal.

FIXED like a BOSS!!!!!!!!!





















BURN!

Yes, her aggressive interventionist foreign policy, which I think is the biggest problem this country faces. I support our troops as much as any American, does it mean that I support putting their lives at risk so deliberately? Of course not. She's submissive, face it. Submissive to the ones who are really pulling the strings. The more money the US government needs to borrow from the Fed to wage unnecessary avoidable military interventions the bigger this entity gets. Some hidden interests there I tell you.

I also dare you to justify her aggressive outsourcing policy in front of the over 200 former coworkers of mine who were sent home when I was working for HP because the company moved it all to India for cheaper labor. As soon as she opens her mouth it smells of putrid hypocrisy and lies.
