GOP Debate Drinking Game:

1. Anytime a candidate bashes Obama, take a shot.
2. Anytime a candidate bashes Hillary Clinton, take a shot.
3. Anytime the bash has nothing to do with the topic at hand, make it a double.
4. Anytime the candidate bashes the media for asking the question in the first place, take a shot.
5. Anytime the candidate ignores the question altogether and just talks about whatever the fuck they want, take a shot.

That was a fat joke. Which apparently flew as high above your head as the jet would over those islands.  :P

Moderator: "Gov. Huckabee, would you replace Janet Yellin?"
Huckabee: "Well my wife's name is Janet, so I'm real familiar with Janet yellin'."

Sounded more like he wanted to buzz the islands close enough for people on the ground to see the words UNITED STATES on it.

Moderator: "How would you restore the bond between the American public and the military?"

Jindal: "I love veterans. Fire some VA bureaucrats."
Huckabee: "I love veterans. Give them a pay raise."
Christie: "I love veterans. Fuck Obama. Fuck Clinton. Obama hates cops."
Santorum: "Obama wants your kids to die overseas."

Also, Santorum said "Commander-in-chief is not an entry-level job. Experience matters." What the fuck kind of experience does Santorum have?

Edit: And now there's some kind of hideous grinning ghoul on-screen....oh wait, it's just Lou Dobbs.

... why are they even asking that question? Last I paid attention public sentiment for soldiers is still bloody high, even if more material support is lacking in areas, and that situation hasn't really budged in something like two or three decades. Maybe it's different in other parts of the country?

Because it's FOX. Things being "not as good as they used to be" is kind of a given starting position for all questions.

Funny thing was, absolutely none of them answered the question. They just took the opportunity to fap to veterans (kind of a requirement if you're running for office) and bash Obama (a requirement if you're running for Republican nomination).

EDIT: And don't get me wrong, I think the VA needs to be drastically improved, AND I think active-duty troops need a pay raise. And I think we should have better support services in place when they get back home. But honestly, the only way they could have tried to outdo each other more would be if one of them fellated a Marine right on stage.

Shiiiit, yellow ribbon advocacy is what matters. If it's any more work than taping a yellow ribbon to a window and it's neither more money for a beuracracy nor a nice fancy thing to brag about online, it's not happening for vets.

Which isn't completely a bad thing, vets are commonly ridiculously entitled as far as people go. And just barely in the neutral tone for entitled, edging towards the negative.

Jeb Bush affirmed that, given the opportunity, he would travel back in time and kill Hitler as a baby.

Well thank God we know that. At least I give him props for acknowledging it could have unknown causal consequences (like his dad not becoming a Navy pilot and thus not charming his way into Barbara's knickers...and yes, I'll leave you with that image festering in your mind.)




@Strife: Yeah, but at the same time...my half-brother pulled 3 tours in Iraq, got PTSD (and probably some TBI) and then got booted out for failing to move up in rank quickly enough. And they've done shit-all to help him out since then.
