(14,732 posts)he's one scary dude. As rabidly RW conservative Xian as Cruz but in a much more attractive package. Except for when he's shooting himself in the foot (like here) he presents himself as a much more normal person. But he's as crazy as any of the best of them.

(14,732 posts)the press ignores it, thrilled with his down-home 'charm' and oh-shucks manner.

(58,785 posts)who believe their Bible gives them special knowledge that makes [even dumbheads like] them far wiser than even, or actually especially, very highly educated and experienced people.
Strikingly, all of these people have almost no intellectual curiosity so that years of education and even a lifetime of exposure to world events in W's case just don't "take." They arrive on the national scene as ignorant as two bags of broken hammers, as I once heard Perry described, but fully loaded with arrogance.
And now we see Kaisich showing unmistakable signs of the same extreme inadequacies. Right-wing politics seem to be breeding these people like rabbits these days.

(58,785 posts)possibly have forgotten Fappy the Anti-Masturbation Dolphin?!! Gee, I wonder if any of these are why the GOP and Kochs think Kasich is unelectable.

(14,732 posts)can convince people that it's still a 'horse race' the more tune in breathlessly to hear the latest spin. I'm old enough to remember newsmen like Walter Cronkite. What we have now is a bunch of braying idiots.

(65,616 posts)He is a huge piece of shit. He is the Sub-Huckabee.
Hortensis
(58,785 posts)but he's the kind who'll always choose to laugh - at Kaisich displaying himself as a bigoted idiot in this case. I'm obliged to keep watch and growl protectively for both of us.

(4,858 posts)...too bad. I've met Kasich a few times, and liked him. But Jesus H Christ(sic), how hard would it have been to say something nice and uncontroversial, anyway...?

Pathetic.

(154,021 posts)Either Kasich is a complete ignorant buffoon, or...being that open about that anti-Semitism takes brass balls.
Not enough info yet to chose that category yet. Either way what an idiot
