Making a List (of Questions), Checking It Twice

By Sniffles

We cats find the endless Republican debates amusing, but at the same time a little frustrating. So many questions still don't get asked.

To that end, here are a few suggestions for next time.

Do you define 20 straight months of private-sector job growth as a recession? If so, how do you describe what happened to the economy during the Bush years?

Do you believe that the United States was founded as a Christian nation? If yes, please explain. (We think your Jewish Republican friends should be interested.)

Do you support allowing alternative holiday displays on the grounds of the Leesburg, Virginia courthouse? If not, why should Christian displays be favored? (Ditto.)

Will you be upset if President Obama recess-appoints Richard Cordray to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? If yes, did you support George W. Bush when he recess-appointed John Bolton as U.N. ambassador? If so, what's the difference?

While we're at it, why are you against protecting American consumers from fraud and abuse?

Please name all the members of the United States Supreme Court.
