  • Water Torpedoes Hopes...

    Nothing like needing a drink of water at the most inopportune time ever. Looks like cottonmouth may have derailed Marco Rubio's Presidential aspirations before that train could even leave the station...

    Who cares...........
    It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must stop it.

      I certainly can't understand why it's a bigger deal than the bald faced lies he told about government being responsible for the housing crisis. I guess Republicans lying their asses off is nothing new, though, and getting cottonmouth mid-speech is at least something not par for the course.
      All politicians lie their ass off, it's amusing as hell that he's getting heat not for lying, not for chasing skirts, not for graft, but for being nervous as a whore in church. I think that he could have survived just about all the other things, but this one is likely to dog him for the rest of his life...

        that water gulp was scripted. they put that in there to make him seem like a so-called regular guy?

        you know whatever party, the other one goes only as low as the other one can. which means when one does good thhe other one does too, and when one does bad so does the other. democracy is a two party symbiotic relationship with people as the host. if one party died, the ppl would suffer even more.

          what iritates me is the whole lets find a black guy, or a cuban guy, or an indian guy or a female president and then demographics will get us the needed votes to win. but then i really don't know shit. it's certainly a brave new world tho. .. it's not bad. it just needs time to work out.

            It's a funny moment and instant meme to most of the world. As someone who has trained speakers, though, it shows a guy who didn't have the confidence to simply say, "Excuse me", confidently reach for his water and then continue. Not the end of the world, but it makes me wonder. On the surface just a silly gaffe. In the offices of consultants and players, though, that's goign to resonate a bit for reasons totally different than why the public is laughing at it.

              As I read the thread title, I was thinking, "Water torpedoes...are there other kinds?"

                when the colonies signed up against england, it's wasn't boston vs britain or virgina vs it. it was both. that spirit still holds true.

                face it, the rest of the world sucks. there's no way we only last a few hundred years.

                      Johnny's pointing a gun at me, so I pretty much have to agree with whatever he says.

                        I'm stunned that this is any kind of issue....people drink water, now if he would have licked his eyes like one of those Ryan lizardmen, that would have been something...

                            Absatootley ... if a few is more than 2 and less than many, then he's totally right on that one point. Was there another?

                              Public water drinking gives comfort to the enemy. He's an embarrassment to America.
