There’s one candidate on-stage in New Hampshire who believes that the free market – the real, honest-to-God free market, sans subsidies and global military intervention – should determine the price of energy resources. Guess who.
UPDATE: That godd**n fool John King just claimed that ALL of the Republicans said the troops must stay in Iraq or else there will be a disaster. Guess which one didn’t.
UPDATE 2: Ridiculous pandering to The Troops™ – except, again, from Ron Paul (who actually served in the military). McCain invokes the popular sunk-costs fallacy, claiming that we must stay so that all those Americans will not have died in vain. But Benito goose-steps around the diamond after hinting that the media is stabbing The Troops™ in the back with all the negative coverage. The crowd goes wild.
UPDATE 3: Rev. Huckabee: We’re the sh*t because we don’t strap bombs to our fetuses the way the jihadists do. Or something.
UPDATE 4: When asked what’s the most pressing moral issue today, Ron Paul answers that it’s our country’s policy on preemptive war, especially the potential of a nuclear attack on Iran. Hell yes.
Now back to the pro-life baloney from the Strangeloves.
UPDATE 5: Mitt Ronald Reagan Romney makes a play for McCain and Giuliani’s militarists by pledging more troops, more “defense” spending, more more more. Giuliani and McCain fight to win them back by playing the nobody’s-calling-it-ISLAMIC-turrrr card.
And now, thank Jeebus, it’s done.
