Which one is Goodluck Jonathan?
“He then went on about how his ex-wife got “trumped up restraining orders” preventing him from seeing his kids.”
What a photo? The women find out first.
It’s completely sad that this is represents the best public service Idaho has to offer. It’s so unserious it hurts, and plenty other Idahoans as a result. The information age is horribly unkind to people in this position, and often it’s well earned.
This “debate” would have not passed muster in high school.
Idaho is such a crazy place that the guy named “Butch Otter” is one of the suits!
Not sure, but I’m making a wild guess that the “fringe Candidates” are the two on the left.
I think they ran the wrong piece - this is a skit from Saturday Night Live.
I don’t know what’s more outrageous – These fringe candidates and their eccentricities, or that I find myself in agreement with one of the fringe candidates far more than the two “serious” candidates on at least one issue.
The best and the brightest.
Btw, I appreciate the work that goes into providing an accurate transcription, but I’m pretty sure that Brown said that bikers are “cop magnets”, and not “cop magnates”.
My favorite line was when the moderator introduced Candidate Manbib:
"Walt Bayes is a high-school graduate…."
Cream of the crop here, folks.
Hey, give motorcycle guy some credit. He came out swinging in favor of gay marriage.
Crotchety old white guys are the most self-entitled dunces ever known to mankind.
This is great! An otter, a labrador, and two guys wearing the uniforms of imaginary armies. The Big Tent of the Republican Party.
What the GOP lacks in diversity, it certainly makes up for in the embraced spectrum of madness, delusion, and outright intolerance.
And yet, Idaho’s next governor will undoubtedly be selected from among this group of losers…erm… gentlemen.
Brown is supposed to be the crazy one - but sometimes he seems more sane than the rest of the crew.
Huh, I had no idea “Steal the Show” was a euphuism for “Deranged”. Thanks TPM for clearing that up.
Couple of winners there.
First Mr. “Fun to Stay at the Y.M.C.A.” in his leathers and little hat saying how: “GOD TOLD ME TO RUN” then complaining about “trumped up restraining orders” (note in PLURAL.)
What a great down-home family man.
Then you have a Karl Marx look-alike contest winner complaining how he “got arrested for home schooling his kids”. In what? Making Meth? Incest? Sedition?
Fun Fun times in the Republican party.
Notice what they both have in common: A massive case of “Victimhood” where everybody is “out to get them” when in reality, nobody gives a shit about what they do or what they say.
I’ve liked him ever since his early work in The Village People.
