Yeah, that'll teach people to protest abuses of power and being indiscriminately murdered.

The creator of that meme doesn't seem to realize that protesting the police isn't a call for a 24/7, all-year-long The Purge situation?

Oh god, I should have just typed this guy's name into google. The first result is a blog dedicated to him being a compulsive liar and sociopath and why women should beware of him if he tries to flirt with him online. The second result is a blog about him being terrible at his job, and includes a link to a press release on Microsoft's site about how Microsoft is suing him for selling pirated software. The third result is from rate my professors with a ton of complaints that he's a liar and incompetent So yeah. He's an engineer.

Thinking back the signs were there but he really went off the libertarian deep end if VACATIONS are for lazy dummies. It's a little schizophrenic, like this recent comic: http://dilbert.com/strip/2016-07-10 Unsurprisingly, this one is also funnier than the vacation one.

It's also sad that they think the Secretary of Defense determines the Defense Department's budget. But at least this line admits they want to use ground troops, rather than hemming and hawing about Obama needing to "get tough" while recommending the exact same actions he's already doing.

Well, I think to present the argument in it's entirety regarding ISIS, it has to be known that: 1. Republicans accuse Obama of overstepping his powers 2. Republicans criticize Obama for drone warfare 3. Republicans want Obama to do more to ISIS 4. Obama points out that this is about all he can loving do with the current AUMF (and it's working) 5. Obama says "Give me a new AUMF and I'll do it" 6. Republicans say "Nah, the current AUMF is good enough" (it isn't, for what they want to do). 7. Republicans blame Obama for having the audacity not to overstep his boundaries while not giving him the ability to do what Republicans thinks he needs to do to get the job done (which, we'll never really know what Republicans really think he should do because they're huge pussies who want to have their 'stop isis' cake and 'not actually have more U.S. Troops Die' eat it too.

Has Newt ever indicated that he's even interested in SoS? If so, he's probably the one person on that chart that wouldn't be a complete disaster. Or maybe it's the opposite, with everyone else, the bureaucracy will circle the wagons to keep the idiot pacified while they keep business going as usual.
