Rand attempts to be like Jesus Christ to the extent that he is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Megan, on the other hand, is a bundle of contradictions. She is sane enough to figure out that he will get clobbered in a debate and to recognize that neither Guthrie nor Evans was yelling at him. But she absolves him of his obviously patronizing, mansplaining attitude. I have a hunch that years of Roger Ailes slobbering all over her legs has traumatized her into a Stockholm Syndrome that blinds her to sexism

You are 100% asshole as opposed to being just 51% asshole.

I'm not so good at these difficult TV interviews. I'll be much better at this running a country thing. Insert it's so easy a monkey can do it, joke here.

Besides, as Fox’s Megyn Kelly assured him on Wednesday night, while he seems “overly emotional” and “thin-skinned” — and if he can’t handle questions from the “Today” show, how does he expect to handle Republican primary debates, HUH? — he does NOT have a problem with lady journalists in particular.

And we learn for the 100th time in the last few years that Megyn Kelly is the only Fox employee smart enough to be entrusted with inoculating interviewees from criticism by making a few tough-seeming points in the midst of otherwise fawning questioning.

She's a woman - how could she resist mah main man Louie Gohmert and his Preznitial looking ties?! But he's been keeping a low profile lately. Or so it seems. I'm starting to get the DT's from lack of Gohmert in the news.

No, it's all about the paycheck for her. She's one of those tragic cases where you know that she knows better (and she occasionally slips up and lets us see it), but she made the choice to make bank instead.

As opposed to an idjit like Gretchen Carlson, who, the only time you would ever say "she occasionally slips up and lets us see it", would be in reference to the glass desk.

I like that it's only day three of his official campaign, and he already has to explain how he doesn't really hate half the electorate. Mittens at least waited until he was actually in the general election to have that implosion.

Rand has binders full of women that he hates.

"I’ve been universally short-tempered and testy...it’s hard sometimes...I can’t see you. And it’s hard to have a true interaction sometimes…"

Holy f-ing mackerel, and this is someone who expects the nation to entrust him with delicate foreign policy decisions made from afar - and with nuclear codes?

How dare the Media use their own words against them? Who do these commie media types think they are asking Presidential Candidates to explain their own words?

The rule book clearly states It's OK If You Are A Republican. No other explanations needed.

It is so fun to watch the GOP clown car. I would just about as soon piss on the graves of my ancestors as vote for a Republican for president, or any office.

eDUCTation = when you kidnap a female college student off her college campus, tie her up with duct tape, and throw her in the trunk of your car.

Hey, give the guy a break. He is a "doctor" and is used to being God.

Wouldn't that just make him smaller?

I would not be surprised in the least if Bush had "codes" but Cheney had the actual codes.
