#3 ... the GOP candidate (esp Cruz and Rubio) devoid of interesting ideas and courage

Who the fvck is this assclown? Dr Dickhead, I wish my unit had let your shitty little town blow the hell up back when we were "peacekeeping" in Bosnia.

We should have killed more serbian assholes like you after we crossed the Sava river. The Bosniaks muslims were no gems either but the Serbs were wannabe genocidal proto-nazi rats, and Banja Luke was their main hub. We should have burned it to the ground if this is indicative of the kinds of assholes we ended up saving.

#4 One never really knows where #3 is coming from. Entirely too subtle, restrained. :-)

#5 Definition of WELTANSCHAUUNG: a comprehensive conception or apprehension of the world especially from a specific standpoint.

The literal translation from German is "world view".

No charge!

#6 It comes from having to be more controlled when working with this stuff long ago for political flag officers and assorted IC career bureaucrats. I can be blunt here. I couldn't be blunt elsewhere.

#9 The part that is really chilling, Oldspook, is that Dr. Dickhead is right about Jeb Cruz-Rubio.

#10 Right about Jeb. I don't think you could say the same about the other two.

#11 Even if the GOP were to field a decent, hard-working, self-made patriot willing to challenge her Weltanschauung (a most unlikely prospect), she would prevail.

It ain't your father's republic anymore.

#12 I think we've already had a decade of Hilarity.

#13 You have to admit, it is interesting how much attention she has received for acting like the peculiar old woman - leaving sunglasses on inside while attempting to use technology, getting lost in the parking lot, having odd drinks.

#14 And we have already had two decades of Hillarity! beginning with the first lady, then on to da Nu Yawk years, culminating in the primary against Barack Bin Laden, and then SOS for everyone except those in Libya, a breather while Billy's pederasting scandal blew over, and here we are making like a road apple and hitting the trail.

#15 Interesting.
When Pedobill took office in 1992
New Kids on the Block were still performing, as was Frank Zappa and Selena.
They were still trying to figure out how to package Compact Disks.

#16 Do not underestimate Lurch Kerry or Biden, whom have wanted to be POTUS since the 1970's = Vietnam War.

Nor the "Dark Horse" - iff POTUS Clinton was the first "Black" POTUS + presaged Obama, + Obama himself is the first [indigenous = ethnic]"Native American/Ameri-Indian" POTUS, then Obama may be presaging BOBBIE JINDAL albeit Jindal is an Indian-American [New Delhi = South Asia] + NOT a Native American or Ameri-Indian per se.
