Nixon was hysterical, but for all the wrong reasons. He had no sense of humor at all, and had to be coached at his Laugh In appearance.

Yea but he went on it. Carson treating the office of the presidency as an at-all-times stoic position is pretty weird. Reagan was known for his jokes about the budget and russia, most of GWB's career was trying to come off as fun. He doesn't have a single modern candidate to base his dumb idea on.

That said SNL is dumb and I'm not watching it anyway.

Saying Batman is his favorite Marvel character is less damaging than picking Captain America right now. Cap' is the reich wing's #1 hated super hero right now.

Wouldn't surprise me if conservatives worldwide started hating on classic Hitler-punhcing Cap because a current leader of the Republican party primary thinks the Jews should have saved themselves with the 2nd Amendment and the Israeli Prime Minister blamed the holocaust on the Palestinians. Conservatives are getting into full on Nazi-apologism.

L-look, when I said that... uh... Supergirl was 'hot,' I just meant that she was really popular right now, not that she... um... y'know...has a bodacious bod. I clearly believe that...uh...um...my own wife...uh...Columba...is the best looking woman. I can still remember the day I first saw her. I'll never forget it. Back in...uh...back- in... was it?- No the other one. Back...whenever it was...in the twentieth century!

Ha! Seriously, though: their first meeting was romantic.

quote:

On the stump, Jeb Bush frequently recalls meeting his wife as a teenager in Mexico. On Saturday, Columba Bush told her side of the story.

He walked out of a white car the first time she saw him, she said. They went to the movies. In short order, he declared his love for her.

Her response? “I could not stop thinking of how tall he was!” she said, as the room broke into laughter. Jeb Bush is 6’4”. Columba Bush is 5’.

More seriously, she sent the kind of message that might resonate with Hispanic voters should she start appearing more often on the campaign trail.

“Jeb not only fell in love with me, but he also fell in love with my culture,” she said. “And I fell in love with his heart.”

It doesn't say he set it on the first date, just that he said it early on in the relationship. That's my interpretation, anyway.

He probably is a pretty nice guy, he just happens to be really bad at the family business.

Yeah, I'd really rather the left not resort to swiftboating, not to mention that his qualifications as a brain surgeon really shouldn't have that much effect on his qualifications to be President. Also his reputation probably meant he got more of the tougher cases, which nobody will hit 100% success on.

Seems like a reasonable request, I am sure many of his fellow candidates will follow the billionaire mad-man's lead.

What's unreasonable and childish is 15,000 brain surgeries. That's a brain surgery a day, seven days a week, for 41 years.

I know it's only October but I really can't wait for Trump to go full out 'WAR ON CHRISTMAS." I just picture him packing Trump tower with the most obnoxious Christmas display of all time. MASSIVE inflatable Santa's, dazzling lights, a living nativity scene, loud Christmas music, everything.

Then when they ask the other candidates about Christmas, Ben Carson will lower his eyes... 7th Day Adventists don't celebrate Christmas.

And this is how Christmas will win Donald J Trump the Republican nomination.

Hahahahaha. Lord President Trump's War against the Bush machine is almost complete. The long, bloody retreat to Berlin is finished, and it's only a matter of time now.

And it took only a couple of months, far less time than Trump will have to destroy the Clinton machine.
