The Super Bowl represents American Culture.

Consider what she represents...

...and what was put on display, in association, at half time.

It’s just another loss in the culture war.

The poor bastards have us surrounded.

I personally had no problem with Lady GaGa and her performance of the national anthem.

My problem with her and the whole bubblegum pop genre is that it's just crappy music. Most of these bubblegum pop songs have about a 2-3 note range, if that. Sometimes it's just the same note over and over again.

It was the halftime show that stunk.

The Malcolm X Go-Go dancers!

Jeb will probably finish well, perhaps second, in SC; Rubio will probably finish well, probably second, in Florida. Trump will finish first in both places, and will poll well throughout the South, where he draws big. He's already second in Texas, behind Cruz, and who can beat Trump in NY or CA (the other two of the four largest states)? The only current potential obstacle to his nomination is the convention superdelegates, and one thing we know about the GOP elite is, they're spineless. There may be a few dozen who are so dedicated and beholden to the DNC that they'll be vocal in opposition to the nomination of Trump, but the net result will be, he'll be nominated, pick the perfect running mate, and by 2020's convention there will have been significant adjustments made to the cast of characters among the superdelegates.

Do the math:

If there were only TWO in the race, like with the dems -
What would it look like - and what is the very real scenario?

Now:
Trump at 44
Cruz at 17

leaves 39 votes others are keeping from the race - especially the ones so low there’s NO WAY of winning.

But they hang in there - to keep making money and having their face on TV. That’s more important to them than making sure we have a republican at the helm come Jan.

With 39 useless %-points being held hostage - Well, If there was just Cruz and Trump - Trump would never have been ahead.

So the egotists holding onto those votes - can hardly be looked at as having the interest of our nation at heart. They are Rinos and maybe worse...?

SOME of you might be interested in taking an honest look at Cruz’s record - experience, bills introduced, stances, etc - or, if you can’t even be bothered with that - at least contemplate his rating with the ACU - as in American CONSERVATIVE Union? (as compared to donald’s past footsie coziness with the dems. )

FR used to predominately HONEST, CONSERVATIVES who cold debate civilly - how far afield have we gone.

http://www.newsmax.com/Reagan/Cruz-Senate-control-Roberts/2014/10/10/id/599920/

excerpt: “Out of those candidates, Ted Cruz should be an easy choice for conservatives.

Why?

Well, if you want a conservative candidate in the White House, you can’t do better than Ted Cruz. Cruz has a 100% lifetime rating from the ACU, a 97% rating from Conservative Review and a 100% rating from Heritage Action.”

http://townhall.com/columnists/johnhawkins/2015/12/01/the-conservative-case-for-ted-cruz-n2087162

But y’all are salivating over someone who “can’t be bought” because he’s so rich. He can ‘make deals”

They ignore that, altho’ he’s not ‘bought’ with money - he is the ‘buyer” for favors. He gets what he wants FOR HIMSELF by bullying, threatening with lawsuits or quid pro quo - even with the4 devil...as he admits himself when called on it. altho’ you’ll note that he doesn’t answer what he got from Pelosi or Reid - and no one calls him on it. (and his ludicrous ‘favor’ from Hillary was to come to his wedding - and they let that stand! What he’s really saying is that he bought Hillary - and she’s obligated to run whenever he calls - If you Trumpsters were honest with even yourselves, you’d admit that if you changed the name form Trump to Cruz in any of the many actions of Trump - you’d be hollering bloody murder.

Quid pro quo - is a practic4e considered verboten in Congress -

Fire away, Trumpsters - as I know your will. (I think I’ll take out stocks in Horse blinders)

That is higher than Trump has ever been. I’ll wait until I see confirmation from other polls.

Remember, prior to this, the highest he got was 41 percent and that was in a single poll. He’s mostly polling in the mid-to-high 30s.

So let’s see what the other polls say. This is a poll I haven’t heard of.

That will be the big headline in the “mainstream Republican” media: KASICH DOUBLES SUPPORT IN NEW POLL

And you can’t accuse them of not telling the truth.

Yep. No doubt Kasich will also be saying the same thing. He has been, after all, endorsed by the NYT.

John of Gaunt was the father of Henry IV. He's the one who gives that long, wonderful dying speech (the "Sceptred Isle" speech) in Richard II.

>>is that it’s just crappy music

Can’t argue with fact.

Meanwhile her popularity among the Useful Idiots facilitating the demoralization and systemic corruption of American culture is what it is.

Listen to what Bezmenov had to say... and think about the role the gah-gah “community” plays in that context:

Reagan bought us some time. That’s over.

She used to be something of a social deviant. I think her work with Tony Bennett straightened her out a good bit.

His negatives are very high, the highest of any candidate in the field, and unlike Cruz and Rubio, he is polling behind Hitlery.

Nah - he doesn’t flip flop

MUCH.... wish I’d have taken stocks out on Horse Blinders at the beginning of the race. I’d be sitting on easy street by now, thanks to all you Trumpsters.

That is a dynamic variable and has more to do with name recognition than anything else. It is almost meaningless when it comes to the general election which is months away. But all will be revealed in the next few months.

You post: “Trump hits 45% nationally even if the establishment coalesces on a candidate,..”

You REALLY don’t get it yet?

The ‘establishment, the dems AND the media are all for Trump...to close out any chance of a real Conservative getting in.

If they are successful and Trump is our candidate - THEN they let loose on him and destroy him. - (and don’t forget - he backed hilliary in 2008, and contributed to her - then after O’’dummbo won, he praised him and backed him...and WHO was the first person he consulted with regarding throwing his hat in the ring?

Bill Clinton.

And how did Bill win the first time? With LESS than 50% of the vote?

With their shill, 3rd party Perot - who, afterwards, got lucrative gov’t contracts.

Hey, it worked once for the Clintoons. And the American public is decades stupider now -

Can you connect the dots yet?

(Raise your hand if you seriously think Trump wants to tie up 8 years of his life in DC - when, if Hitlery gets in, He’ll have any and all percs/contracts he wants)

" Idiocracy"

Thank you for giving it a name.

I have been beside myself trying to put a name to it!

IDIOCRACY

Indeed.

But didn't foresee FR descending into it too

What if Felito Cruz is 3rd cousins twice removed from Fidel Castro? OOps! :-) I was simply reporting a FACT -

You, in typical Trumpster fashion, are posting a totally fictitious supposition meant to smear.

This is merely evidence of the mass-mental disorder that has has infected this country - making it what one Freeper has aptly dubbed as an IDIOCRACY
