Like what was said in the Spock thread, we have Douche thread already:

She has always been a polarizing person. Not the type of person that should be leading the country. And I've already said that I wasn't a fan of Walker, but there is no way I'd ever vote for Hillary. And please note that even as a reg repug, I did vote for her husband so I don't just blindly follow party lines.
And it is silly to argue who is the worst, since they both suck.
I'd rather have Rod Blagojevich as governor.Founder of The Glory of War, CHAMPIONS OF APOLYTON!!!

When Blago was bought, he stayed bought. So far, I haven't seen Walker turn on Koch's for a better deal.“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

GOP policies wreck the economy.To us, it is the BEAST.

Lower wages are good when unemployment is high and there is a lack of capital.
Lower wages are bad when unemployment is low or when there is a surplus of capital.
We are in the latter case right now and have been for a long time (20+ years).

If you say 'there is not a surplus of capital' then explain why capital is eager for savings instruments where the interest rate is negative...
Honestly that is a sign right there that the current 'system' is being harmed by supporting capital too much over labor.

I'd rather have Rod Blagojevich as governor.
But as I said, they both suck and it would probably rank as the two worst candidates ever if they were to face off in 2016.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

Not because he disagrees with Obama's policies but because Obama is a black guy“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Originally posted by DaShi View PostHardly, you're confusing a rebound of the republican party (of which is still severely crippled by strong divisions, just look at the 2016 candidates) with troubles in the democratic one. The democratic party simply enjoyed a huge boost from the utter evisceration of the republican party during Bush's term, and now the balance of the two is correcting itself.

Also, dear lord, as if the Kochs need to buy Scott Walker. He'd agree with everything they think whether they paid him or not, they're paying for his campaign* because he already agrees with them. There is absolutely no bribery required. The Koch viewpoint of libertarian-leaning pro-business is basically the stock Republican viewpoint right now.
*Are they actually though? I thought they were backing someone else for some reasonIf there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?
