John Kasich Says We Can't Legalize Pot Because 'Drugs Is One of the Greatest Scourge'
Post Date: 2015-10-30 21:23:17 by Deckard
4 Comments
CBS NewsNext Tuesday voters in Ohio will decide whether to legalize marijuana. Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, is a vocal opponent of the idea, so his reaction when the subject was broached at last night's debate was hardly surprising. But his ungrammatical, barely coherent statement nicely illustrated the brain-dead dogmatism of pot prohibitionists: Sending mixed signals to kids about drugs is a disaster. Drugs is one of the greatest scourge in this country, and I spent five years of my administration working with my team to do a whole sort of things to try to rein in the problem of overdoses, and it goes on and on. We could do a whole ...

GOP and the Rise of Anti-Knowledge
Post Date: 2015-10-30 07:52:15 by Willie Green

Ben Carson’s rise to the top of the Republican presidential field shows that many Republicans, especially Christian fundamentalists, have decoupled from the real world — and are proud of it. The more that GOP candidates embrace “anti-knowledge” the more popular they become, as Mike Lofgren explains.By Mike LofgrenIn the realm of physics, the opposite of matter is not nothingness, but antimatter. In the realm of practical epistemology, the opposite of knowledge is not ignorance but anti-knowledge. This seldom recognized fact is one of the prime forces behind the decay of political and civic culture in America.Some common-sense philosophers have observed this point over ...

Rubio to Jorge Ramos: If I’m elected president, I’ll rescind Obama’s executive mega-amnesty

He’s addressed this topic before but we should start paying extra attention to his public comments about it, and not just because he’s the clear choice for nominee at this point among much of the Republican commentariat. (And probably soon to be the clear choice of the donor class, if he isn’t already.) We have a new Speaker of the House of Representatives, elected this very day, who’d have some key common ground with President Rubio. They’re both in their mid-40s, both center-right, both Mitt Romney allies, both one-time heartthrobs of the conservative base, and both now viewed suspiciously primarily because of one verrry important departure from right-wing ...

House votes in John Boehner again under his alisas Paul Ryan!

WASHINGTON (AP) — Outgoing Speaker John Boehner bade farewell to his colleagues Thursday as the House commenced the political pageantry of electing Paul Ryan to replace him, with Republicans hoping the young but seasoned lawmaker can mend the splintered party's self-inflicted wounds and craft a conservative message to woo voters in next year's elections. "I leave with no regrets, no burdens," said Boehner, R-Ohio, who was hounded into retirement by hard-line conservatives who are mostly rallying behind Ryan, at least for now. "If anything, I leave the way I started, just a regular guy, humbled by the chance to do a big job." His 10-minute valedictory was ...

On October 21, Bill Bennett and Sean Hannity had a somewhat feisty exchange during a segment on the latter’s television show. Bennett made two remarks that are worth focusing upon. First, when asked whether he is “ok” with a Trump candidacy, Bennett replied that he’s “not OK at all” with it. Given “the totality of his acts and his record and the things he has stood for,” Bennett said, it’s clear that Trump’s “not very principled in terms of his convictions [.]” Trump has “a record” that’s “longer than your arm” of being “wrong on all of these things [.]” Trump, that is, is not a real ...

We Have Our Final Six [GOP primary candidates]

Tonight’s debate showed that the GOP field is smaller than it looks. Technically, there are still fourteen people running, but the winnowing is far along. We probably have a final six and possibly a final four.The three winners of the night were pretty obvious: Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, and Donald Trump.Rubio ended Jeb Bush’s campaign with the kind of body shot that buckles your knees. That’s on Bush, who never should have come after Rubio in that spot for a host of strategic and tactical reasons. But what should scare Hillary Clinton is how effortless Rubio is even with throwaway lines, like “I’m against anything that’s bad for my mother.” Most people have ...

The Nuclear Option: GOP Leaders Won’t Pledge Loyalty to Donald Trump

Just last month, Republican Party officials scurried into Trump Tower to extract a loyalty pledge from a certain unpredictable billionaire real estate mogul turned presidential candidate. Who knew that it should have been Donald Trump extracting just such a loyalty pledge from Republican bigs? In a stunning admission of just how wildly out of touch they are from actual, breathing human voters, GOP establishment insiders say that if Mr. Trump continues his unfettered march to the Republican nomination they will go to war to take him out. Asked by the Washington Examiner’s Byron York to describe how they would greet a Trump candidacy, one “leading conservative” said: ...

AP-GfK Poll: Republicans view Donald Trump as most electable

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican voters view Donald Trump as their strongest general election candidate, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll that highlights the sharp contrast between the party’s voters and its top professionals regarding the billionaire businessman’s ultimate political strength. Seven in 10 Republican and Republican-leaning registered voters say Trump could win in November 2016 if he is nominated, and that’s the most who say so of any candidate. By comparison, 6 in 10 say the same for retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who, like Trump, has tapped into the powerful wave of antiestablishment anger defining the early phases of the 2016 contest. ...

House Select Committee on Benghazi Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) says former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was not “cooperative” during last Thursday’s 11-hour interview before the panel. Gowdy said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Clinton answered all of the questions without complaint, but added that she did not give complete or entirely truthful answers. “She answered the questions, and I would note I don’t think I ever cut her off. She was given ample opportunity, so she answered the questions, yeah, if that’s your definition of cooperative,” Gowdy said. “I’ve always also injected an element of wholeness and ...

Donald Trump Goes on Attack After Iowa Poll Shows Decline

"I love Iowa," Trump said. "I honestly think those polls are wrong." Trump then said that the two polling groups responsible for the numbers, Quinnipiac and Bloomberg, "do not like me." Trump has, however, previously touted these same polling institutions this election cycle, frequently citing them in ...

In the private meeting inside the House Ways and Means Committee hearing room in the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday afternoon, chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) promised the House Freedom Caucus the world to try to earn their official endorsement. He failed. Among the things that Ryan promised the members were a return to regular order, changes to the steering committee that decides committee assignments centralizing power in the Speaker’s office—Ryan even promised to give up the Speaker’s five votes on the committee—and an end to retaliation against Republican members who vote their conscience. He reiterated his promise made in the full GOP conference on Tuesday of no amnesty ...

Just like Jeb Bush, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky is a legacy candidate for president. He has hoped to hold the libertarian political base of his father, former Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, and expand its appeal within the Republican Party and with the broader electorate. In the wake of Mitt Romney's 2012 defeat, Paul initially garnered considerable attention in the Senate. In the name of privacy, he battled the Obama administration over national security surveillance practices. In the name of fairness, he reached out to African-Americans and criticized "big government" police practices in poor communities. Yet Paul has struggled for traction on the 2016 campaign trail. He has ...

Donald J. Trump. Long a flamboyant figure in American life — as a real-estate developer and reality show host — Trump, 69, entered the race in June in unorthodox fashion. At a moment when Republican leaders hoped to repair relations with Latino voters, he seized on the issue of illegal immigration, accused those crossing the border from Mexico of "bringing drugs ... bringing crime. They're rapists." That hot-button issue with conservative voters grew hotter within weeks when an illegal immigrant was charged with the killing of a young San Franciscan named Kate Steinle.Adam Jeffery | CNBC Donald Trump speaks with CNBC's John Harwood at the Trump Grill in New ...

Why Today’s GOP Crackup Is the Final Unraveling of Nixon’s ‘Southern Strategy’

 Tea Party rebels are exposing the deep rifts between country-club elites and social-issue hard-liners. Fresh chatter among Washington insiders is not about whether the Republican Party will win in 2016 but whether it will survive. Donald Trump—the fear that he might actually become the GOP nominee—is the ultimate nightmare. Some gleeful Democrats are rooting (sotto voce) for the Donald, though many expect he will self-destruct. Nevertheless, Republicans face a larger problem. The GOP finds itself trapped in a marriage that has not only gone bad but is coming apart in full public view. After five decades of shrewd strategy, the Republican coalition Richard Nixon put ...
