The Republicans are competing for the title of the Fastest and Most Efficient Gun in the West. The last time I saw this many old men in suits discussing killing and maiming was in The Godfather I. One exception: Ron Paul doesn't do this, and so he's irrelevant. Even the President of 9/11 is struggling to keep pace with the disciple of Joseph Smith, Jr., who would double the size of Gitmo, presumably to be run by a private hotel chain. Torture and turndown service. McCain is surging ahead 100 years: that's how long he'll keep U. S. troops in Iraq. And it was nice to see Fred Thompson come out of his writer's strike induced coma during the last debate.

In a perfect world, politics would imitate art. What if the Republican debates could be filtered through dialogue from Starship Troopers? What if...
Giuliani: We must meet this threat with our courage, our valor, indeed with our very lives to ensure that human civilization, not insect, dominates this galaxy NOW AND ALWAYS!
McCain: We will find those who did it, we'll smoke them out of their holes. We'll get them running and we'll bring them to justice.
Thompson: Shoot a nuke down a bug hole, you got a lot of dead bugs.
Romney: You see a bug hole, YOU NUKE IT!
Huckabee: Man did not evolve from insect. Do I look like insect you work with or the one who laid you off?
