this whole farce is just not worth watching

I’m tired of useless, silly debates. I want a steel cage death match like Thunderdome. Two enter, one leaves. But then, I’m also for bringing back the Arena and the Circus Maximus too.

The continued softball, don’t you dare upset Queen Hillary from the debate moderators, and the planted, “I’m a conservative Republican who just happens to have voted Democrat and spout MoveOn talking points” together have made a complete farce out of the debates. Until the Dems get their feet held to the fire with real, substantive questions, and the Republicans get balanced, rational questions instead of opinion pieces disguised as questions, this whole farce is just not worth watching.

Someone wake me up when the election gets here.

I am beginning to think that there really is a “battered Republican” syndrome in the GOP right now. How else to explain the moronic stupidity of GOP candidates voluntarily showing up at this “debate” – and thus giving CNN credibility they do not deserve?

If you though that this debate was bad, just wait until next year. The MSM and their Democrat pets will conclude (correctly) from last night’s mudfest that no one in the GOP has enough of a spine to stand up to them.

Meanwhile, the Clinton campaign orders Wolf Blitzer to go easy on Hillary – and he meekly complies. Did anyone at the debate last night bring this up?

Absolutely Benning. I have yet to watch a debate especially one controlled by a leftist leaning pro-communist organization like the Clinton News Network. The Candidates need to realize this isn’t about what they promise to do, it is about what they have done in the past. McCain wonders why he isn’t doing so well for a “top tier” candidate, well John look at what you have done in the past, and by the way, thanks for McCain/Feingold, what a pos that legislation is.

My preferances still lean toward Fred or Mike, the more I see of Huckabee, the more I like him. But I am not going to watch, and I think the 2 of them could make quite the presidential team.

But I have really kicked around voting for Hillary. I know say what you want about her, but I figure if anything is going to speed up the return of Jesus, it will be the daughter of the devil as President. – Lorica

CNN’s Damage Control over Fake Undecided Voters at

Kerr said in the CNN debate, “I revealed I was gay after I retired.” He became openly gay AFTER he left National Reserve duty! Wasn’t his premise that soldiers are professional enough to handle gay soldiers? Why did he hide his identity for 43 years …

[...] Let’s start with the plant. Too tired to post it last night, but, via Jay at Stop the ACLU (plus buttloads of folks at Memeorandum. including Hot Air, Sister Toldjah, Outside The Beltway, Confederate Yankee, and Wizbang) General Keith Kerr who appeared as a “spontantous” questioner on CNN’s YouTube Republican Debates hosted by Anderson Cooper is a member of the Hillary Clinton campaign. But this was not mentioned upfront, Kerr treated as a regular, spontaneous questioner. Shouldn’t that have been made clear to the audience? Or does CNN think it’s OK to sandbag the GOP candidates with a Hillary operative without mentioning it? [...]

Who thinks political debates – as we’ve come to know them – are useful? Raise your hands!

No one?

Then who cares? As for this shill â€¦ he may be living as an openly gay man â€¦ now â€¦ but he didn’t when he was in the military. The question is one the Dems couldn’t answer or handle when Slick Willie was Prez; why is it so important now? And why do the “gay” activists line up in support of the people who couldn’t handle it before?

Polls and Debates: useless. Dems and their Shills: predictable.

“Don’t ask, don’t tell” is OK…but some insist on telling without even being asked.

That this ~~gay~~ guy was a plant comes as no surprise…

Clinton shows fear

It isn’t bad enough that the dead news stations know we don’t trust them, but then they have to go out of their way to prove why.

Instead of Questions, Hillary Plants Questioner

The CNN/YouTube debate for the Republicans was held earlier this evening and I think it was a lively event. The problem with the event is that CNN allowed an activist who is a member of Hillary Clinton’s Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Trans-gender steering…

Now how did I foul that up (it’s the alcohol; sorry about that)? I would try to ReWrite™ it, but it would probably make things worse.

Oh well, I hope you can figure out what I was saying.

Well, if nothing else, at least I remembered to link to most of those on my bloated roll that were blogging, and there was no snowman, and put those links before the liveblog. That’s the last time I try to keep up with Stephen Green in the drunkblogging department.

Hopefully, the Pubbies will have at least one debate during which I won’t have to swear and drink like a longshoreman.
