Civil War among the Right
« on: July 23, 2013, 08:19:31 pm »
The rise of Rand Paul is causing friction among the right it seems. Rand Paul, a non-interventionist paleoconservative, is not that popular with the hawkish neoconservatives. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/22/aides-resignation-heightens-sen-rand-pauls-feud-ne/

If Rand Paul's momentum keeps going, than the 2016 Republican primaries are going to see some pretty intense mudslinging. As for me? Someone just pass the popcorn because I am going to enjoy watching the salvo.

Oh this was always gonna be the case.  After Romney failed to get elected even due to shenanigans, the Right is going to need a serious image change to even get that 47% that voted for them back.

Ironbite-and I really don't think anyone in the Party of No has it in them to change that much.

Cinnamon fried tortillas?  Dude, pass those this way!

I'm definitely going to bring buckets of popcorn myself because this could be entertaining.

At the moment, I think it's going to be a hell of a fight in the primaries, but they'll ultimately choose a sane person like Chris Christie or Marco Rubio. Someone who actually has a chance of winning the general election. While Rand Paul gets some awesome points for being a non-interventionist and opposing the Patriot Act and the ability of the President to arrest American citizens "suspect of terrorist involvement" and detain them indefinitely, he loses all of them and then some for...well, the reasons are numerous enough to write a book out of.

You mean "relatively" sane, right?

For the tortillas, you can cut them up or keep them whole. I recommend cutting them up. For that, you cut diagonally like you would a pizza, then you sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Then you fry them up in oil (preferably peanut oil for neutral flavor). You then skim up the ones that float to the top, and serve them up.

The ones who ignore economic topics and concentrate on the social issues will hopefully be the first ones to "suspend their campaign."  The sooner, the better.
