What I can't understand is when it comes from the left.

They are looking a gift horse in the mouth.

I am absolutely elated at the way this Presidential race is going.

Trump has 25% of the Republicans backing him and Sanders has 25% of the Democrats.

That 50% of the electorate that is giving the finger to the party elites.

It's about time.

The cartoon didn't have a time stamp. I still think that what it depicts will ultimately happen in the GOP primary, though not before wreaking further havoc on the party. Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.

The Mother Jones article has a link to "One America News" but it appears to be overloaded. Hope it's a DOS attack.

Trump-Palin, The Derps Strike Back

I almost feel sorry for the GOP, almost.

TJ, I am thoroughly entertained by Trump's theatrics and the Republican reaction. I don't particularly care for the media blanketing him but what do you expect anyway; they are only interested in the ratings and nothing else. Politically I do not take him seriously at all nor do I read any of his so called news conferences or policy papers. As to some of his attacks on his fellow candidates, enjoy them immensely.

Verizon FIOS carries the channel. I may have to watch. It should be a stitch watching both of those clowns bitching about being persecuted.

"Website Crashes for Tiny TV Network in Advance of Its Donald Trump Interview"

http://variety.com/2015/digital/news...ew-1201581012/

Apparently, Caribou Barbie is going to interview Bush and Cruz tonight too.

The ROKU channel costs $4.00 a month. Pass!

The show (which I'm kinda watching at the moment) has $arah sitting alone in a studio talking to Jeb, Cruz and Trump each for a portion of the show. The Jeb "interview" had Jeb tuning in via a grainy Skype connection and was dreadfully boring.

Now comes Ted Cruz on Skype talking about the "war on faith." It ended up being a love fest between these two numbskulls.
