Or he too busy pissing on the ashes of Wisconsin still? walker will be a very boring debate presence compared to the rest of the field. he will cower in one corner while Very Serious NeoConservative Man frantically tries to fend off the various foaming-at-the-mouth attack dogs. Scott Walker don't really register when you've got a Paul, ted cruz, huckabee, santorum, carson, carly fiorina, chris cristy

VitalSigns posted:Time value of money refers to the fact that it is almost always preferable to have money now rather than later. The poor should (and do) rationally apply an even greater discount rate than the affluent because as you note, penalties and late fees on bills are going to exceed any potential gains from investing that money.

Judith MIller has a new oped in the WSJ about quote:Years would pass before U.S. soldiers found remnants of some 5,000 inoperable chemical munitions made before the first Gulf War that Saddam claimed to have destroyed. Not until 2014 would the U.S. learn that some of Iraq’s degraded sarin nerve agent was purer than Americans had expected and was sickening Iraqi and American soldiers who had stumbled upon it. It's all lolworthy but especially the assertion that degraded chemical weapons that the Bush administration knew about before the fact but determined that they would not be a useful argument in favor of invading Iraq were the WMDs we were after.

Ted Cruz is going to loving destroy in those debates. Seriously, I'm not joking. He's a trained debater and a really really good lawyer. He's insane and I disagree with everything he stands for because he's a goddamn sociopath but he's a good debater. There's no one in the debates that's been announced so far that is even in the same ballpark of his skill. Ted Cruz is terrifying.

Yeah presidential debates aren't really about "good arguments" or "skill".

Now I am not going to outright say that Ted Cruz is the anti-Christ, but he was born of occultist parentage that regularly performed ritual sacrifices. Makes you think.

I was thinking more in terms of how badly and non chalantly Ted Cruz has no problem at all selling out his party for his own personal goals. I'm specifically talking about the Republican primaries. Yeah, he is kind of a smug piece of poo poo and can come off that way but he will make everyone else look like a fool.

I can't wait for the primaries because one way or another the "Ted Cruz is a super genius and a master debater" thing being true will be settled.

Has anyone dug up recordings of his old debates? I'm sure he's had to do some political debating since he ran for senator, and I'd be interested to see how he does in those.
