TheDisreputableDog posted:Sorry friend, if someone lays out a republican candidate for not supporting gay people, empty rhetoric, bombing brown people, being generally blasé about the wealth gap - yes I'm going to draw parallels every time. Because Obama didn't openly support gay marriage years ago, it's completely okay for GOP candidates to vehemently oppose it now. Am I getting your argument right?

The Disreputable Dog's broken record "Gosh, where are all your minority candidates, liberals?"  routine is amusing, but more in a  way than in a "Trump keeps starting those press releases in the third person and ending them in the first, how does this happen multiple times?" laugh out loud comedy way.

Uh is there a statue of limitations on bigotry? If not, you clearly can't argue this position is a disqualifier for the Executive.

Whiskey Sours posted:How is Santorum not a joke candidate this time? He's Huckabee without the charm, and worst of all he's a Papist. Santorum is not a frontrunner whatsoever. He's currently not even polling in the top 10, so that would cut him out of the relevant debates entirely. The frontrunners are Bush (I don't like that people are getting tricked by the "Jeb!" thing and not focusing on the "Bush" part), Rubio, and Walker. And I guess Trump now, though he will obviously fall apart at some point. And re: Rick Perry, did you not pay attention to 2012 at all? If not, he managed to come off so unintelligent that even Republican voters were like "uh, no thanks". He won't be recovering from that.

Ronald Reagan, Nov 1986 posted:In spite of the wildly speculative and false stories of arms for hostages and alleged ransom payments, we did not -- repeat did not -- trade weapons or anything else for hostages nor will we. Ronald Reagan, March 1987 posted:A few months ago, I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions still tell me that's true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not. We can do this all day. Please, respond with Clinton's "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" speech.

He would be the first president with a single name, all the cool factor of Madonna or Prince. That said, wouldn't JEB be more appropriate for someone rocking an acronym? JEB! JEB! JEB!

At this point it's becoming a fair guess whether something is North Korean "the world fears ultimate leader and we never import anything because he makes everything for us while shooting thirty under par at the golf course with nothing but a putter" propaganda or Trump "none of this means anything and you all are totes jelly" horseshit.

Lancelot posted:Jeb, Walker, Rubio, Santorum, is my guess. The rest are either not in it to win it or are joke candidates, or both. What alternate reality do you come from where Santorum is a serious candidate? His support is just a sickly drip of GOP crazy and he has no serious support. Peztopiary posted:It'll come back if he does well in debates Santorum is not a strong debater and he looks like he's always on the verge of crying. The guy got voted out of office in PA and has pretty much no chance of even getting his old Senate seat back except maybe in a non-presidential election and GOP sweep. Except he'd have to win the GOP primary in PA and he can't even do that any more. Santorum would need some divine intervention to be more than a joke or passing fad.
