CNNs Republican debate on September 16th will be conducted with dignity and gravitas by questioners like Hugh Hewitt and Jake Tapper, who will treat the candidates with a level of respect and courtesy that many of them just dont deserve. They have to. I dont.
On behalf of all infuriated conservatives, I demand the right to interrogate the candidates myself. I get to ask a question and a follow-up, and here are the rules. First, answer the damn question. It insults me when you think Ill somehow forget what I asked, so bewitching is your oratory. Second, answer, then stop talking. If you use more words than the Gettysburg Address (272) you are so, so very wrong. Third, no clichés. If you use the phrase for the children, I get to slap you.
Here goes:
Jeb! Bush:
You support amnesty and Common Core, you wont undo the Iran sellout of Israel on your first day in office and as we always expected youve come out in support of more gun control. Since you have adopted Hillarys platform, why are you running as a Republican?
Why are you so damn special that despite there being 320 million other Americans, we cant do any better than a third Bush?
Dr. Ben Carson:
Youre proud of not being a politician, but what makes you think D.C.s establishment wont chew you up and spit you out?
Youre a guy with tremendous accomplishments, morals, and character. Why do you even want to go to Washington?
Jim Gilmore:
Can you name one person you arent related to who wants you to be president?
In fact, are you even supposed to be here on stage tonight?
Chris Christie:
Lets deal with the elephant in the room what the hell were you thinking snuggling up to Obama?
Other than talking incessantly about killing terrorists which is cool in what way are you even remotely a conservative?
Carly Fiorina:
Youre the only female running in the GOP primaries. Would you even be on this stage if you were a dude?
You were a senior officer in a huge corporation that did a lot of government work. Why should we conservatives believe you wont be just another crony capitalist shafting us and stealing our money for the benefit of your corporate pals?
Lindsey Graham:
Conservatives detest you, and the feeling is mutual. Are you in this as some sort of establishment stalking horse to make sure a real conservative doesnt derail Jeb! by snagging South Carolinas delegates?
Anything else interesting that youd like to tell us tonight?
John Kasich:
You decided to go along with Obamacare in Ohio. Why, as a conservative would I ever support you in the primary over someone committed to the destruction of that socialist atrocity?
Like many, even most, conservatives, I think youre a smug, sanctimonious jerk who hides his self-righteousness behind a vague, unfocused aura of pseudo-Christian progressivism. Why should I allow you to spend four to eight years in my face telling me how I dont measure up to your allegedly Jesus-inspired standards?
George Pataki:
Since I really have no idea why youre running, let me just ask you this: Whos more badass, Captain Kirk or Picard?
Marco Rubio:
My family is half Cuban, and we loved you and your life story until you lied to us about amnesty no, thats not an invitation for you to try to convince us how your past embrace of amnesty was not really an embrace of amnesty. You lied to me once why should I ever believe anything you ever say again?
Heres your chance to be clear do you agree with me and most conservatives that America has zero moral obligation to illegal aliens, that they should receive no government benefits, and that they should leave our country?
Ted Cruz:
I think you are a genius lawyer and a true conservative, but you are off-putting to people who arent movement conservatives and I fear your candidacy would be Goldwater II: The Revenge. Do the math for me how can you possibly win 270 electoral votes?
Wouldnt you better serve conservatism as Chief Justice Ted Cruz?
Rand Paul:
Like your father, I can listen to you for a couple minutes, find myself nodding in agreement, and then BAM! you say something nutty, usually about foreign policy. How can I be sure you will do the most important thing a president must do relentlessly and ruthlessly kill Americas enemies?
Chemtrails. Are they a thing?
Scott Walker:
The idea behind your campaign seemed to be that youre a normal guy who would return us to normalcy, but we conservatives dont want normalcy anymore. We want vengeance. Will you commit to ruthlessly annihilating liberalism wherever you find it?
More specifically, will you commit to destroying all federal government employee unions?
Mike Huckabee:
You combine a love of big government with a kind of religious paternalism that evokes an unholy love child of LBJ and Elmer Gantry. Can you sketch me out a scenario where you win the general election that doesnt involve someone releasing tapes of Hillary gleefully vivisecting corgi puppies?
You play bass. Really, is that a presidents instrument?
Bobby Jindal:
As an Asian-American, can the GOP win over that growing minority group by addressing the systemic racism they face because of Democrat-dominated universities admissions policies?
I think youd be a good president, but I dont think you can win. Shouldnt you agree to come on board with someone up here on stage who might win and agree to be his/her HHS secretary?
Rick Santorum:
You lost your Senate seat in Pennsylvania back in 2006, meaning you have failed in every election campaign since 2000. Why is this time different?
My country is falling apart and, like most conservatives, thats my No. 1 priority. Why should I vote for you and re-fight the gay marriage battle that weve already decisively lost instead of saving our Constitution from these leftist creeps?
Donald Trump:
Yeah, its been a lot of fun watching you make the GOP establishment wince by raising subjects like illegal alien thugs that the elite wants hushed up. Weve had some laughs. But if you are elected president, you will be the commander-in-chief. This is a no gotcha question I led soldiers for 27 years, so this is personal to me and to millions of conservatives whose sons, daughters, mothers, and fathers serve. Can you give me one good reason why you are worthy of our trust to lead and to safeguard the lives of the incredible men and women of our armed forces?
I dont have a follow-up to that question, because at the end of the day, no other question really matters.
You support amnesty and Common Core, you wont undo the Iran sellout of Israel on your first day in office and as we always expected youve come out in support of more gun control. Since you have adopted Hillarys platform, why are you running as a Republican?
It's a damn good question.
“Whos more badass, Captain Kirk or Picard?”
Capt Kirk, no doubt and no question. . .women want him and men want to be him. . .Picard is a whiny emotional wreck, agonizing over any and all decisions.
Boxers or briefs?
[snip] Scott Walker: The idea behind your campaign seemed to be that youâre a normal guy who would return us to normalcy, but we conservatives donât want normalcy anymore. We want vengeance. Will you commit to ruthlessly annihilating liberalism wherever you find it? More specifically, will you commit to destroying all federal government employee unions? [/snip]And Walker just did -- the writer is just a Scottbot.
If this is his only knock on Cruz, this concern can be addressed.
“I think you are a genius lawyer and a true conservative, but you are off-putting to people who arent movement conservatives and I fear your candidacy would be Goldwater II...”
Of course it’s Kirk. Some of these Republican Candidates are wishy washy morons, some may betray US citizens by siding with illegal invaders... but choosing Picard? Maybe some would choose him at the democrat convention.
Thats Hillary’s question.
Of course Kirk is the correct answer, but would Pataki pick him?
I don’t see where he throws anyone a softball. However, since Scott has stated he would, perhaps that is the softball question. Which came first though, his question, or Scott’s pledge? Since today is the first time I have heard about his pledge, I’m thinking he formulated the question before.
I was a fanatical fan of Star Trek TOS. From the first two part episode, I called TNT “star trek for women”. It was truly pathetic and I didn’t watch it much.
Would love to hear these question answered by the candidates..
Questions that each would not expect..
Question to TRUMP was extremely weak.. and only one question.. I can think of at least five.. more germane..
Kirk = republican, Picard = democrat..
THIS. After being forced to watch the gang rape of my nation for 6 and a half years, I want the perpetrators mashed into paste. I want their slimy enablers frightened about what's coming down the pike for them. I want sustained, unrelenting offense. No delaying actions, no defense only, game management crap. I want my president to punch the left in the satchel EVERY DAMN DAY, like their Marxist wannabe god king has been doing to us for 6 and a half years. Anything less is NOT just not enough, it's insulting.

And Walker just did — the writer is just a Scottbot.
Not to mention the fact that although state public employee unions are high on the list of every state’s fiscal problems, federal employees unions are not up there in terms of causes of federal over-spending. That distinction lies with the politicians themselves.
Which means that Walker’s big issue isn’t so big an issue on the national stage... which might be one of the reason why his candidacy is sinking fast.
Right, so, media shill.
Neither. Both Star Trek characters were designed as a mouthpiece to spout social progressive (marxist) propaganda.
I'm assuming you are for Scott Walker, though of course I may be wrong in that assumption. Could that be why you are exhibiting antagonism towards him?
I don't know anything about the man except what appears in the article about him, which is:
Kurt Schlichter
Kurt Schlichter (Twitter: @KurtSchlichter) was personally recruited to write conservative commentary by Andrew Breitbart. He is a successful Los Angeles trial lawyer, a veteran with a masters in Strategic Studies from the United States Army War College, and a former stand-up comic.
Why should I vote for you and re-fight the gay marriage battle that weve already decisively lost
Thus I take a lot of what he has said as jokes. If they are not jokes then I question his lawyer abilities. Because the Supreme Court ignored the Constitution when deciding the same-sex marriage question. Which leaves us in a Constitutional quandary. who decides when the Supreme Court makes an unconstitutional ruling? Who knocks down an illegal law by the Supreme Court when their functions do not include law creation?
Only in the eyes of a non-cultural conservative is it lost. One man one woman marriage is basic to the survival of America, the family the very fabric of society, anybody, any candidate, who surrenders the fight - as Kaslin apparently has - is a gutless coward.
In the overarching battle of good vs evil, the real battle, for those of us who have read the back of the book (Revelation), we know who is the winner in this fight.
