well I never heared Rubio's rebuke, but I did read the french ambassador's one.

 

hilarity

[Lysistrata]

Rubio never attacked Bush back, he just stated facts that Jeb supported John McCain's campaign all the way and never said a word about him missing Senate votes... that the only reason he was attacking Rubio about it now was because someone told him that it would help him... and the crowd goes wild!

[onbekende]

thats a rebuke, and a snidy one at that

A few more videos like this and Donald Trump will be the next President. All he has to do is show this to the thousands that show up at his events and say... "Anyone still believe we don't need a wall?"

 

[Icewolf]

Current polling data shows trump has lost his lead in the race and also performs worse than the other republicans in match ups against Clinton.

I think we might be getting safer.

Mike Huckabee and Chris Cristie have been kicked from the main debate stage. Lindsey (who would name a boy Lindsey?) Graham and George Pataki have been kicked from the entire event. I knew the first network that began the dirty task of telling some of these guys that it's just not working out for them... would be the big hero. Fox Business Network finally did this for the benefit of all of us.

 

I would have liked to see John Kasich and Jeb Bush kicked to the kids table as well... but like Mick Jagger says... you can't always get what you want. Donald is hosting NBC's Saturday Night Live tomorrow night... what fucking planet are we on?

a planet were apparantly grain silo's come in pyramid shape

But it's tangentially related to a bible story so it must be true.

Then I want my ever lasting fish and bread.

 

the bread is for me, I will make good $$ from the fish thou

So from twitter I understand that the firm consensus was that a British Guy should be the Republican Nominee after last nights debate.

How the fuck do you become a neurosurgeon yet have no understanding of Egyptian history? Is it not in the American core syllabus?

 

The only thing I've learnt from the debates (for either side) it's that we should be preparing for 4 years of extreme bullshit. 

 

p.s. I put a small flutter on Bernie for candidacy because the odds are great xD.

Well honestly speaking if I were an enemy of the USA I'd wish that Carson got elected and re-elected and then the US would be destroyed in 8 years.

 

The guy is a neurosurgeon and doesn't believe in Evolution. For decency's sake sir, stop making us doctors look like idiots. 

 

But then again the GOP Primary is about proving who is the biggest fool of all isn't it........? Guns good, Abortion bad, Low taxes, No min wage, No Obamacare it Bad Mexicans out, steal jobs. God Bless America.

 

Well looks like I'd be a good candidate too.

 

Get ready for another defeat Republicans. Lincoln would've been ashamed.

Hi Rafay... Pakistan is an enemy of the USA. I mean, hiding Osama bin Laden while taking billions from the U.S. taxpayers to "help" us fight terrorism was the end for us. If things go your way, you will soon be dealing with Putin... we all know the Russians will be much more flexible.

 

I got a question for you... if humans evolved from apes, why are there still apes? Where are those half apes? Or did we all "evolve" at the same rate? I'm not a religious man, but I will never believe that any human is related to an ape. I believe humans are a unique species, and if we do not allow each other to be different, it will eventually destroy us all.

 

Defending myself and my family is good. Forcing people, to pay for other people to murder their children, is bad. Taxing people for the purpose of wasting their money with no accountability is bad. Every State has their own minimum wage... I have no idea where you get that from. We are against a Federal minimum wage, because we are against mass unemployment. Obamacare is a failure... I can't even afford to use the insurance I am mandated to pay for, because my deductible has tripled. Every country has immigration laws... they must be enforced, or changed, not ignored. "Steal jobs"? What do you mean by that?

 

As for the debate... I'm all for Marco Rubio.

[Icewolf]

I think increasingly what we are seeing is that actually, the pool of candidates for the US presidency is fairly poor. I don't see any really stand out candidates. The Republicans seem to have mistaken quantity for quality (and are repeating the mistake of 4 years ago of assuming that winning the primary is winning the presidency as far as I can see), and the democrats haven't even brought the quantity.

Do tell more , I am intrigued

Well them drone strikes didn't help improve the relations did they.....? The thing is that USA has always gotten what they asked for from Pakistan but didn't return their gratitude. Pakistan was sanctioned when it showed it's nuclear capabilities when you boast the largest active nuclear arsenal in the world. Also interference w/ our internal politics, being unable to decide whether a dictator or democracy is good for Pakistan are some stains on the USA's Pakistan policy. And yes why wouldn't we go to Russians who'd be willing to help us for a little access to Gwadar Port and they support us on Iran Pipeline which USA has vehemently opposed. Also USA has a dua standard as they allowed India Civil Nuclear Tech but not to Pakistan. These are the things that the public doesn't like.....

 

I got a question for you... if humans evolved from apes, why are there still apes?

 

That's not exactly what Darwin said. He believed that humans evolved from a very distant relative of apes. It seems true as the Chimpanzee share 95% of our genome, the orangutan 90% and apes 92%. I mean surely you must've read about Nanderthals and other early humans. How they walked just like apes and even their skeletons show that.

Yes have your guns 'for defense'. But how on Earth are you allowed to carry assault rifles. I mean that's illegal even in Pakistan and we're supposed to be terrorists. I mean you can defend yourself w/ a shot-gun or a .45. Why do you want an M16? Also I support gun control not gun ban. There is a difference. There should be standards to who can and cannot own a gun. If you are so pro-life what about the lives of mass shootings' victims? As for abortion, I won't really much say about it as your Supreme Court has already ruled in favor. A a doctor I believe that if a person is living a life worse than death then there is no point in living.....You'll understand that once you've spent 3 months in a Paeds ward or 36 months in a hospital I guess.

 

By steal jobs I meant Mexicans steal jobs.

 

If Obamacare is a failure than it can be amended. Wouldn't you like free meds and surgery if the need arose? I mean I'd pay taxes for free health and education. 

 

Min wage is actually a good thing. Shouldn't the greedy corporations making billions pay something back to the workers? The federal min wage is like 7$ and hour if I'm not wrong? How'll that kill jobs?

Hi Rafay... We only wanted your buddy bin Laden. We got him. Please don't mistake my comment as caring what happens.

 

I guess evolution only happened to humans. Those chimps must have missed the evolution train. Whatever you believe... it's all theory, and if someone else has a different idea, it doesn't make them stupid. Doesn't that Koran tell you all the answers? Nothing to lose your head over, I'm sure of that.

 

By "assault" weapons I'm sure you mean semi-automatic rifles. We can buy them but no one carries them around. You have watched too many movies, or listened to too many air-headed liberals. We carry debit cards and argue over which restaurant to go to. There already are standards on who can own guns... but just like it's illegal to enter the U.S.A. without documentation, somehow some people just don't care about the laws.

 

The Supreme Court has never ruled in favor of using taxpayer money to pay for abortions... it's illegal. When you finish becoming a doctor... I hope you spend your life healing and protecting life. That is outstanding. If you choose who lives or dies, that's criminal.

 

Do you know any Mexicans? Didn't think so. I know Mexicans, I'm friends with Mexicans... lots of Mexicans. They are an amazing people, and really good food. Most are very family oriented, hard working, and very Catholic... especially the women. They don't deserve to be exploited by anyone, but they are exploited by employers and moron politicians that pander for the hispanic vote. This will end when we once again have a President that understands that Presidents do not write laws.

 

The Affordable Care Act is fundamentally flawed. It's designed to fail. It cannot be amended. There is no such thing as free meds and surgery... unless you're poor. The rich can do whatever they want. Everyone else has a policy that is not even practical to even pay for. Going to the doctor for anything other than a life threatening event... is not affordable at all.

 

Each State has their own minimum wage... do you understand? There is no need for a Federal minimum wage. The cost of living is different in North Dakota than it is in California. If the Federal minimum was raised to $15 an hour... the first round of layoffs would destroy the US economy... but I guess you guys in other countries are rooting for that.

No, they evolved as well. They just evolved in a different direction. 

 

If I roll four balls down a cliff, and they end up in different locations because one hit an outcrop and bounced differently, or a gust of wind hit another, the fact they are in different locations does not demonstrate that they were not rolled down the cliff. Ok its a clumsy metaphor, but it works.

 

As for the "its just a theory" statement, I think you are underestimating the significance of something being a theory. For something to be a theory it has to explain all the evidence currently presented, and generally it should be able to predict phenomena that were not observed at the time the theory was written. Anything less is a hypothesis or model, or an observable phenomena.

 

As for a person who does not accept evolution, it does pose a problem in terms of their suitability to lead a nation because it means they reject the scientific process. And given the most important decisions taken in the next administration (namely those on Climate Change) will require the mind of someone who accepts scientific process, a person who rejects it is not suitable to be President of any country.
