    The 'Great Debate' - Who Won?

    The 'Great Debate' - Who Won?



    Winners? Losers? The pundits all want to score last night's debate. We take a slightly different look at the 2016 presidential race and last night's debate.
    "Foreign aid is taking money from the poor people of a rich country, and giving it to the rich people of a poor country." - Ron Paul
    "Beware the Military-Industrial-Financial-Pharma-Corporate-Internet-Media-Government Complex." - B4L update of General Dwight D. Eisenhower
    "Debt is the drug, Wall St. Banksters are the dealers, and politicians are the addicts." - B4L
    "Totally free immigration? I've never taken that position. I believe in national sovereignty." - Ron Paul

    There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

    There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

    It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

    Our words make us the ghosts that we are.

    Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.

    While DH was watching I was out back having some Dirty Arnold Palmers, and all I could hear was her nag, and him whine.
    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.

    I would totally watch if Ron was the moderator!

    Good vid.

    Arnold Palmer passed away yesterday.

    the last debate will be the one to watch.

    I think both candidates lost, as I don't think either candidate changed anyone's mind after that debate. However, the consensus seems to be that Hillary came off looking better. I don't think Rudy Giuliani would be advising that Trump skip future debates if Trump won.

    I would have liked to see Ron Paul debate Hillary

    No one won in last night's debate, except maybe Bill Clinton, who looked super happy to be greeting Mrs. Trump.


    Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.

    Ok, so I approached this with a bit of trepidation.

    I was all, like, WTF is a "Dirty Arnold Palmer"?

    I assumed, before screwgling, that it was a drink.

    But what if turned out to be something horrifying, like a "Filthy Sanchez" or "Cleveland Steamer"?

    Thankfully it was a drink.

    Pretty tasty looking as well.

    "War is the health of the State." - Randolph Bourne "Freedom is the answer. ... Now, what's the question?" - Ernie Hancock.
