Republican Candidates for 2016

not sure why these young leftists keep trying to pick fights with Ted Cruz

part of it is just the arrogance of youth, your typical smug college student who watches John Stewart and things they know everything

And part of it is the arrogance of age, your typical smarmy, lying politician whose sycophantic followers refuse to watch Jon Stewart because their betters told them that he's got too much "liberal bias" to be taken seriously.

As such, the echo chamber gets louder and louder with myths, willful misunderstandings, and flat out lies just waiting to be spewed in a wall of unrelated text vomit on Facebook or your favorite basketball BBS. It doesn't matter that half of that spew is easily refuted with 30 seconds of actual research, they'll ignore the evidence because they have been convinced that the source is too liberally biased by people who don't even try to hide their severe conservative bias.

 

It's gonna be Trump, right?

 

Trump might be getting a ton of press, but man...I really like Dr. Ben Carson. Other than the fact that he was a neurosurgeon, his life story is so amazing and extremely relate able to so many people in this country.

I also love his concept of for a Health Savings Account, and his views on making education a major priority.

 

If Donald Trump wasn't in the race, Ben Carson would be the one being mocked for the absurd things he's said.

Is Obamacare really the worst thing to happen to this country since slavery? There's NOTHING worse? Vietnam? A civil war? Lynchings?

 

Obviously Citizen's United is the worst thing to happen since slavery. It's the death of democracy.


(not intended as a factual statement)

 

HSA and the concept of "free-market" health care system is not a new concept. HSA has been around for a decade. It does nothing to address the cost issue. It's very beneficial on a tax basis and I have used it plenty to lower tax rate. But the idea of it as a solution to health access at an affordable price doesn't work for the simple fact that individual pay anything for their health and for-profit would do anything for their profit. In fact, the health care system is completely r****ded. If you go into the "free-market" without said insurance backing, you are paying 2-3x the cost of "negotiated" pricing by the big insurers. That's for all health care, including dental. And it make perfect since in a "free-market" system - the one with the most leverage get the best pricing. Individual has little leverage vs a big insurer vs a even bigger single-payer system that most universal health care system of the world have at a fraction of the costs of the US system.

 

Wow...

That got to be taken out of context!

 

But what about the Lobsters?

 

I suppose the point being that a new constitutional amendment can override the Supreme Court decision. Too bad an amendment is neigh impossible.

So if you take this to the logical conclusion he's saying that black people aren't Americans?

 

Wow thanks for posting, ted cruz just got OWNED

 

Blame the "liberals" haha - that's all he could say.

He couldn't answer the questions and then got owned when she called him out on it. He is not fit to run the country nor a lobster business. Anyone who supports Ted Cruz is just an idiot.

WOW! Didn't think he had a chance but also didn't think it would come so soon.

Now who are the Kochs going to give their billions too?

 

*Hunger Games Horn and Cannon*

 

You say that as if there is a shortage of politicians willing to take their money.

 

LOL, Sad but true.
