You won’t see me write these words very often, but Donald Trump is right. Ted Cruz is a very nasty guy, and not even his Senate colleagues like him.
Of course, Donald Trump is also a very nasty guy. And that, dear readers, is exactly why these are the two right wing front-runners in the presidential race; nasty, privileged white guys are very popular with the conservative base.
It is a case of pot and kettle. Both are two very nasty people.
Trump on CNN: “I like to be good. I don’t like to have to ask for forgiveness. And I am good. I don’t do a lot of things that are bad.”
— Sopan Deb (@SopanDeb) January 17, 2016
This is what it looked and sounded like when carnival barkers fought about the relative merits of each’s cooch dancing tent.
I think what continues to stick out to me is that none of Cruz’s colleagues are coming to his rescue. Even his fellow “true conservatives” are mum on these attacks by Trump. If you needed an idea of just how hated this guy is by his own party, just listen to the sound of silence coming from the Senate every time Trump jams another knife into the back of his former bromance partner.

They don’t like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz because they’re better at working the rubes.
Nothing from the mouths of these two men is unique or outlying, contrasted with what has been produced by conservative “pundits,” elected officials, and news sources, over the past sixteen years.
Contextually, what is “nasty”?
It’s being explicit about the stuff that supposed to be implicit; to make the code words and subtext, text. To actually state something, not “asking questions.”
The rest of the GOP are trying to pretend like they’re just purveyors and connoisseurs of exotic Bavarian muscle dancing. Trump and Cruz are giving the mopes more of the full-frontal stupid-and-angry that they want.

re: #33 Backwoods_Sleuth
Much hairdoo about nothing?
What I can’t understand about Cruz or Trump is why in the hell any working class person would trust either one of them to look out for their interests. They’re both overfed and soft—I mean physically—they’re both paunch-bellied. privileged men who’ve never had to do tough, manual labor for any length of time.
I can tell by their hands. They both have hands with smooth, unblemished skin. No scars, no calluses, just smooth softness. Maybe they even get manicures. None of the men in my family have/had hands like that; the plumber who came to fix my sink this past Monday didn’t have hands like that. I don’t trust hands like that, hands that have never seen an extended period of tough, honest physical labor. Even most men who have white collar jobs don’t have those kind of pristine, pampered hands.
I don’t care how much they play dress-up by wearing cowboy boots/hats, baseball caps. hunting camouflage, etc. they’re still physically soft. Spoiled… entitled… not to be trusted because they don’t really understand or care about people like me.
LOL—I just had a thought: You know what they should do? Have a basketball game. There are enough of them for at least two teams. Have them play against POTUS and whoever is on his usual WH b-ball team. Whichever contender ends up not being sent to the hospital and looks the least ridiculous at the end of the game wins the GOP nomination.

A few head of cattle
A home and a sweet loving wife.

Here’s what really bakes my noodle about that clip: I can see the cube as deep, like a cup, or projecting outwards, like a true 3D cube, just by concentrating on an edge or on the intersection of the corners respectively. But, I can’t change from seeing it one way, to seeing it the other, while he’s moving the sculpture.
Edit: OK I can change how I see it while he’s moving it, but I have to concentrate reeeaally hard.
Things like this, and the large-moon-on-the-horizon illusion, fill me with awe and despair at the same time. Awe that our brains can be tricked… And despair that we’re at the mercy of our brains, no matter how special we think our perceptions are. :)

The “leadership” he apparently showed by…just taking the oath of office. Seriously, do these morons not know that the hostages were released on Inauguration Day? I thought their popular myth was that he’d called up Tehran on Day One, made it clear he was in charge, and that they’re released those hostages immediately or he’d start bombing?
And we’ll just skip over the next hostage crisis where he sold Iran missiles, then funneled the money from the sales to fund death squads in South America.

In recent days, the occupiers have been increasingly bold about their destruction of federal property, paving new roads on federal land and taking down security cameras. They also tore down fences and have been looking through federal records, raising concerns about the potential that they’ve accessed sensitive data.

There’s no optics if it isn’t recorded. Close the roads, move the civilians and press out to a safe distance, and tell these fuckheads they’ve got until (X) to peaceably surrender on the laundry list of charges they’ve gleefully admitted to committing, or the National Guard is coming in with body armor and handcuffs to peacefully remove them. Any shots fired will be considered an act of war and treated accordingly. I don’t even care anymore. If it’s war, then let’s get it done. No Bundys = No Problems.
