"Donald Trump Traveling Tijuana Donkey Show"

If you can't count on a libertarian to be inappropriately vulgar and condescending, who can you count on?

I hate fascism. That’s why I’m voting for Trump or Cruz in November 2016 regardless of who the GOPe force on us.

That’s nothing compared with the reaming that the St. Louis Rams are giving the Missouri taxpayers.

Walker will commit no less than $400 million of taxpayer money to a stadium deal

A building for a basketball game is a forum or an arena, not a stadium.

The reaming was 20 years ago. Right now, what's on the table is not as attractive as Kroehnke building his own venue in los Angeles.

A bad idea with impressively bad timing. This could do irreparable harm to his image.

who can you count on?

Apparently you to make some snide remark about libertarians rather than address the theme of the thread that so-called "conservative" Walker is raping the taxpayers to the tune of $400,000,000 to the primary benefit of a professional sports team with a secondary benefit to the construction industry no doubt all bought and paid for by the Chamber of Commerce. GOP business as usual.

You didn't find that comment vulgar? Do you know what a Tijuana Donkey Show is?

It will bring in a lot more than 400 million in revenue to the state. Not to mention all the new jobs. It’s a great idea.

Seems to me that the man is showing his true colors. Sticking it to the taxpayers in true GOP-e fashion. Kind of reminds me of Bush and Dole handing our wallets over to Archer Daniels Midlands with the phony baloney ethanol as a renewable fuel scam.

Celebrity capitalism is no more defensible than crony capitalism.

Then they should have no problem getting bank financing.

I found the comment vulgar, but who cares? It’s irrelevant to the fact presented.

I don’t find it so. I think it speaks volumes about Nick and his magazine. And it didn’t come out of nowhere.

I remember as a 20-something, watching "This Week with David Brinkley," wondering why ADM was constantly running ads about ethanol.

You live and learn.

God save us from the censorious. I found it vaguely amusing.

Good for you. And where did I ask or demand that it be censored?
