The ballots may say that Rand won but Sisi was the real winner of CPAC this year :psyduck:

Honestly, out of all the people on that list, I think Marco Rubio is the best shot the GOP has against Hillary Clinton.

And that the 22nd Amendment prevents him from running again (unless he does the Nixon trick in Futurama, of course).

One of them has the Georgia flag on his sign, but the other one has the Russian flag + coat of arms (next to the Confederate flag, of course.) I have no idea. :stare:

I think those arrow spokes are a common symbol of a few Russian ultranationalist/fascist parties, which makes his anti-Ukraine position more than a little suspect. Either that or he's a closet worshipper of Chaos Undivided.

I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.

Mother Jones had a story on millenials at CPAC. There's supposedly a party scene there (believable) and lots of sexing going on (not quite so believable). I bet it's an unspoken rule that every child conceived there has to be named Reagan.

I just assumed far-right conservatives had taken to worshipping the forces of chaos.

It's not all that shocking. You cram a bunch of 16-20 yr olds into a confined space for three days there's going to be some loving going on. Awkward, possibly shame-filled loving in this case, but loving nonetheless.

Chris Christie posted:

Well, the Laffer Curve doesn't "work." It's not a policy. It's a simple truth, that existed well before Art Laffer was born, that at some level of taxation you will produce the greatest income to the treasury, and that at other levels of taxation you will produce less revenue.

People on both sides of the aisle mistakenly conflate the Laffer curve with the belief that tax cuts = more revenue, which is on its face patently absurd.

This probably has to do with people on one side of the isle referring to it when proposing tax cuts to imply that they'll produce more revenue...

I guess people my age who have never had a hard day in their life and benefit from systemic inequality will have lovely Boomer views at 20. Still hosed.
