There have also been some ill-chosen remarks about NATO, our Pacific Rim commitments and nuclear proliferation. The hastily assembled mutual non-aggression pact between the GOP and Trump is unraveling, with Donald threatening to go it alone if he's swindled out of delegates at the convention, and his opponents hinting they will not support him if he's the nominee. And in the meantime, Hammerhead Cruz is patiently swimming in his wake, ready to snatch up the survivors as they jump off the sinking ship. Isn't it amusing that Ted Cruz, the most hated Republican in the Senate, is now the champion of the Establishment? Damn. You just can't make this stuff up. I have to admit, I'm having a ball watching this all go down. Too bad that the most likely winner of this Byzantine knife-fight is Steerpike himself, Ted Cruz. And that man scares the shit out of me. He reminds me of Fidel. "Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action."

Breitbart was slavishly fawning over Trump previous to the event... The reporter in question quit due to their failure to back her up, as did one of their editors and their spokesman... There is the video that the police felt was evidence of assault, witnesses, and also an audio tape that was recorded of the entire event. The guy has a well known history of this sort of behavior...

Even then, if you tried to match up visible body parts on the assumption of, you know, maximum carnage, just by eye I think you'd still end up with more than 19 Republican Presidential candidates. Something's fishy here. Damn the mainstream liberal media for conspiring to black out the seven <i>qualified</i> Republican candidates that nobody ever saw just to focus on the screaming lunatics and the knuckle draggers in a deliberate attempt to discredit conservatives! Those damn dirty apes! At least, that’s assuming that each clown visible represents a whole clown, and it wasn’t a Scarecrow “That’s me all over” situation.

The videos don't convince me, although they don't rule out much either. At best, they are inconclusive. And I suspect the Breitbart connection. BTW, great cartoon. I guess the driver just veered too far to the right. I’m no friend of the guy, but I think this is all campaign dirty tricks.
