1. Actually, it's more like all of them will be drunk.

Some more than others, and a few will also have partaken of some of Walter White's high-octane meth.

[Orsino]

23. NASCAR drivers have marketable skills, and their logos are less conspicuous. n/t

[Fred Sanders]

25. Agreed, the cartoon has it wrong, all the drivers are intoxicated with God-complex. More

like a drunken demolition derby in a Deep South hayseed field where not being sober gets you disqualified.

Another attempt to seperate Trump from the GOP field so that the GOP and corporate media can go on pretending that at least a third of the Republican Party Foxbot "base" they are all in hot pursuit of is not certifiably insane.

[awoke_in_2003]

32. Yep. nt

You should check this out. Fits right in with your picture

3. One of them? ONE of them????

How about one is drunk, and the others are either asleep at the wheel or too young to drive.

[tclambert]

15. More like all of them.

[63splitwindow]

21. ALL impaired, at least ONE by alcohol, resulting in...

[big_dog]

30. 'drivers, start your engines!' (and then immediately crash them into the next candidate)

[sheldon]

38. First thing I thought, too!

They're all a bit wacko.

[Gothmog]

4. This is great

[C Moon]

5. The last couple dozen they had were GREAT! This should be even better.

It'll be funny watching Bush try to keep things—and look—sane.

[polynomial]

8. Yes that will be funny... Jeb the political warrior

The Bushido literally meaning "the way of the warrior", is a Japanese word for the way of the samurai life, loosely analogous to the concept of chivalry.

No matter the rhetoric with the Republicans war and profiteering is the platform. "Bushido" is a modern term rather than a historical one.

The "way" itself originates from the samurai moral values, most commonly stressing some combination of frugality, loyalty, martial arts mastery, and honor.

Although the American version of Jeb Bushido is done by swindling in lies profiteering through dishonor more lies and predator economic systems all the while sacking the treasury for power and money.

[C Moon]

10. Love it!

[alfredo]

12. Everybody will pile on Bush because they are afraid of the donald.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

6. Your search for an image of Trump yelling was probably the easiest task ever.

[C Moon]

11. :D

[whopis01]

7. In fairness every party has some nut job that makes noise but never gets anywhere

Should the media really pay so much attention to these outliers who never get any real support from the party or voters? It's not like anyone thinks he is a serious candidate anyway.

Wait, what's that? He is actually leading the polls for the republicans??? He has more than twice the support of the next leading candidate???

Oops. Never mind. Carry on.


LMAO

[alfredo]

13. Ignorance, and the lack of tact is a winning combination in the GOP

Ted Nugent is the perfect republican.

[RecoveringJournalist]

9. But...

Part of the problem with the NASCAR reference is that the drivers are turning left.

[alfredo]

14. Except at their road courses.

[saidsimplesimon]

17. Yes, turning left is in vogue. Let's play it for all it's worth.

Both parties think they can disparage all reasonable voters who disagree with the "dark money" take over of our political system.

You all know we could easily get enough support for a constitutional amendment to reform campaign financing? It's a hard road to take, will take time, effort and funding. We can do it.

[polynomial]

18. That not the problem its the solution

In the calculus of motion the positive direction is the integral that winds to the left. Greens theorem in basic calculus…is on the side of the Democratic candidate.

If the Democrats use it they will win…

[spinbaby]

16. I can't wait for the debate

It promises to be a veritable festival of crazy. Should make for an awesome drinking game.

[irisblue]

19. Weaver, your party owns this....suffer long&hard

[SmittynMo]

20. Can you imagine:

The fighting when the ones not selected will voice their opinions?

The selection of who has to blow into the breathalizer?

The constant rising of voices during the debate?

The name calling?

How much comedic material will come out of this? I'll bet ya every comedian in the world will watch. It'll be a gold mine for them.

This should be fun.

OMG, this is going to be spectacular. I NEVER watch FAUX news. For this, I will make an exception.

I look forward to this with great anticipation. And the cool part is no one on stage will be the president. The Dems will prevail.

[big_dog]

24. I predict Chris Christie's head will explode sometime during the proceedings

or he will have a stroke yelling at Trump

[trusty elf]

39. or.....

[img][/img]

[Beacool]

22. That pic.........LOL!!!

Trump may be the drunk one at the debate, but the majority of the others are certifiably nuts.

[Nitram]

26. I am so looking forwared to the GOP debates!

Trainwreck!

[TygrBright]

27. Yeah, and if you think THAT's scary, imagine ALL of them shitfaced. n/t

"Ave, Imperator, nos morituri salutatis" might well be the mantra of the day.

I'm stockpiling popcorn.

interestedly,
Bright

[Plucketeer]

29. It would be interesting

to know who takes a "belt" or some meds prior to taking to the debate stage.

[Plucketeer]

28. Honestly Marvellous!

Wrong Way Corrigan - eat your heart out!

[captainarizona]

31. women have a hard time in racing.

Danica Patrick has no sponsor for next year yet the male relatives of car owners get rides. Simona de Silvestro can't get a ride in indy car even though she was 4th in points after the second race. Johanna Long can't get a ride in the xfinity series. Their is to much sexism in automobile racing other then drag racing. Target and walmart market to women but have male drivers. As for trump why do good government liberals think they have to help the republican party stop trump from destroying the republican party!

[DAMANgoldberg]

37. Drag racing is a bit better, but...

Most of the women are related to or work for John Force, especially ones in top rides and those that are most likely to make the Countdown to 1.

Also in the developmental levels of both Indy Car and NASCAR, the problem is acute as well.

[d_legendary1]

33. More like bumper car race and all of the drivers are drunk

That's the GOP in a nutshell.

[ImaPolitico]

34. Am loving these...

daily cartoons on DU.
Where can I find most of them after they appear here on their first day?

Thanks.

[Chiyo-chichi]

41. They are archived in EarlG's journal.

[lonestarnot]

35. It should be deliciously delightful to watch as long as one has a puke bucket nearby.

[Initech]

36. Go home GOP, you're drunk.

[malthaussen]

40. The Donald has a point!

Shouldn't GOP candidates turning left cause the universe to implode, or something?

-- Mal

[James Corbett]

42. Not just drunk

Now imagine a NASCAR race with one drunk driver, one so dumb he thinks wearing glasses with plump up his image, one so insane about abortion that he brought his dead baby home to "introduce" it to his siblings, two so dedicated to war that they say there will be "boots on the ground" the "first day," another who promises to bring back draconian penalties for pot, yet another who says Obama is leading the Jews to ovens, still another who end social security, several who want to end "medicare as we know it," and all who believe that American corporations are far too heavily regulated. Before the "debate" begins, if DUers don't understand just how lunatics can be so politically acceptable to almost half the country, we can always "Go Ask Alice, I think she'll know."
