Come one, come all....
... will Newt insult us all?
... will Romney say something memorable?
... will Ron Paul praise our new Iranian overlords?
... will Rick Perry shake the Teletubby?
... will anyone finally realize Santorum offers us utopia?
... will Bachmann don black-face to attract Cain's supporters?
... will Huntsman finally become a 2%er?
All this and more, tonight! Leave your thoughts below.
I'll post the feed once we have it.
ReplyDeleteI've really lost track of the debates. Too many! Ack.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the evening, though!
Tonight's debate is brought to you by Total® Hypocrisy.* Because seven GOP presidential candidates still don't contain all the cereal hypocrisy in one bowl of Total®!
ReplyDelete* Now with Crunchy Denial Clusters™!
Stop cutting in on my Obama O's.
ReplyDeleteStop--uhh--cutting in.
ReplyDeleteOn my...Obama O's.
Is that bologna sandwich Romney is turning into?
ReplyDeleteIS it true that if Standard and Poor's downgrades our debt Souza'a Washington Inauguarial March for the POTUS will be replaced with NApaleon XIV's "There coming to take me away, Ha Ha!"
ReplyDeleteJust asking
as has always been the case, I'm not set up to see the debate and post, but know you guys will have a good time with it. Hope they actually can work on Barry tonight instead of each other. Alas, that is the nature of these things.
ReplyDeleteDUQ, Yes indeed... bologna on white bread.
ReplyDeleteCrispy, I've lost track too.
TOTUS/POTUS, I'll pass.
Indi, I've heard that's true. They've also got a lien on several monuments and apparently, they've ordered packing crates. :(
tryanmax, Yum... Crunchy Denial Clusters!
Jed, Sadly, I suspect more of the same tonight. But who knows? I guess someone might surprise us?
ReplyDeleteT-Rav: I'll be AWOL again this evening. It's the Christmas get-together at the grandkids' school. But reading the comments from our readers is a lot more fun than watching the debates anyway. LOL
ReplyDeleteHere's a fascinating off-topic link. If you recall my article last week about the left becoming antiSemitic, here's official MSM verification, in which they note the Simon Weisenthal Center agrees:
ReplyDeleteTime To Clean Up The Discourse
Here's my original article on the topic: LINK
B.Y.O.B., for the record, in this case stands for "Bring Your Own Barn."
ReplyDeleteAndrew, should I find it disturbing that you now only have normal pictures of Bachmann and Huntsman?
T-Rav, That should probably read "B.Y.O.C." with the "C" meaning "candidate."
ReplyDeleteAs for finding the images disturbing.... yeah, probably.
T-Rav and Andrew
ReplyDeleteWhat's abnormal about the picture og Gaius Newtus Gingritchinas?
Looks spot on to me
Incidentally, my answers to the questions posed are yes, no, yes, no, family, win-win-win, and probably not. You figure it out.
ReplyDeleteIndi: Well played, sir. Well played.
ReplyDeleteOff topic but Before I miss is it

Page 34 of this link Good Screed
I was just watching "Miracle on 34th Street," and it occurred to me I'd much rather have this on the TV than stupid candidate people. Thanks, GOP losers. (sigh)
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, I'm missing a football game for this. Grrr.
ReplyDeleteIndi, Here's your link: LINK
Well, I just read that Current TV (you know, the Al Gore network) is going to have a one-hour post-debate show. Obviously, Gore wants this to be a professional, impartial examination of the debate, so who is hosting it? Failed MSNBC hack Cenk Uygur and failed Democratic governor of Michigan Jennifer Granholm, of course. I'm going to go grab something to eat, and also die laughing.
ReplyDeletesince the semester is over I can actually give the debate a go... we'll see if it can hold my attention enough to keep me from surfing back to the Hallmark movie or CSI:NY reruns...
ReplyDeleteYay rla! Screw those professors! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm still at work, so I am not sure whether I'll be able to stomac...er...join in tonight. I will try.
ReplyDeleteT-Rav - yours done?
ReplyDeletePersonally, I think this is going to be a great debate, guys. But then, I thought the last debate was great too!
ReplyDeleterla, I am indeed finished for the semester. I wrote two big papers, only one of which I understood, and then graded about 50 exams in one weekend, most of which had very stupid things to say. So it's been a standard end-of-semester experience.
ReplyDeleteHey, I've been to Sioux City! Or maybe that was Sioux Falls, which is in South Dakota. They're kind of interchangeable, really.
ReplyDeleteNo, don't cheer these people, you are only encouraging them.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Santorum?
ReplyDeleteThat applause for me sounded so non-perfunctory! I'm pleasantly surprised!
ReplyDeleteTheir sounds stinks again -- just like last time.
ReplyDeleteI am the greatest threat to America.
ReplyDelete...With all that said, Newt Gingrich, do you regret your divorces and affairs?
ReplyDeleteMost electable?
ReplyDeleted) None of the above.
I AM GOD!
ReplyDeleteWhy do I feel like Newt was pandering to social conservatives just then? And what does that say about me?
ReplyDeleteNewt: I can say Reagan. So i win...
ReplyDeleteChecking in! I had to pour me a bowl of Crunch Berries.
ReplyDeleteit says you're paying attention
ReplyDeleteNewt is threatening to cut off the President's legs!!! THREATENING TONE!!!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I have lost one "shift" key, which is really throwing me.
ReplyDeletebing!
ReplyDeleteI don't know you sir.
ReplyDeleterla, but did you show him how to defeat Communism like Newt did? DID YOU???
ReplyDeletenope - also didn't convince him to believe in Reaganomics
ReplyDeleteThose are evil establishment Republican neocons! GOLD!!!
ReplyDeletePuff question to Paul.
ReplyDeleteNice comment by Paul!
ReplyDeletePuff answer from Paul.
ReplyDeleteThis is where Paul is good.
ReplyDeleteI say, I rather like this Paul fellow's foreign policy.
ReplyDeleteSir, is that corn in your pocket?!
ReplyDeletesir, why are you irrelevant?
ReplyDeleteYes, this is good. I just meant the "anyone can beat Obama" bit.
ReplyDeleteSantorum is firebug!
ReplyDeleteSantorum: My plan was to suck all along.
ReplyDeleteI bet he also visited every county in Pennsylvania in 2006, which worked well for him.
ReplyDeletecough cough.... bullship.... cough cough
ReplyDeletehe stands right there - see him??
ReplyDeleteIowans are beginning to respond. I've gone from 0% to 0.1%
ReplyDeleteAndrew, I suspect the candidates will all yank off their suits sometime during the debate to reveal they are wearing overalls and straw hats.
ReplyDeleteRomeney: Let me just not answer that question for you.
ReplyDeletelips moving...
ReplyDeletewords hitting ears....
brain no translate....
tryanmax - good sum up!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is the most conservative message I've heard yet from Romney.
ReplyDeleteThese totally look like game show podiums.
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, That would liven thing up!
ReplyDeleteTo borrow from Strictly Ballroom:
"Show me your square dance..."
By which I mean, he included the line about the private sector creating jobs, not the government. That's about it. (Don't want people thinking I've gone off my meds--again...)
ReplyDeleteCorrect answer should be "there's no such thing as too conservative."
ReplyDeleteLet's see what she says...
Bachmann is an action person?
ReplyDeleteShow me 1 bill she got passed.
Andrew, you jest, but if any of them can prove they know the words to "Cotton-Eye Joe," I will be compelled to vote for them.
ReplyDeleteShe's been a "real person" ... unlike that male mannequin.
ReplyDeleteLord, help us - keep your foot out of your mouth, Gov!
ReplyDeleteObama is an accomplished debater like I am an accomplished brain surgeon.
ReplyDeleteAndrew, didn't you find that Bachmann action figure in your box of cereal hypocrisy?
ReplyDeleteNo, no, Rick, talking a lot is what got you here in the first place. It's called "learning from your mistakes."
ReplyDeleteF-you on the Tebow mention jerk.
ReplyDeletehe just brought in Tebow!
ReplyDeleteAre we talking politics or football?
ReplyDeleteGovernor Hunstman.... why are you here?
ReplyDeleteAnyone else find that hard to understand?
ReplyDeleteso, he's only good in the 4th Q?
ReplyDeleteHuntsman is looking especially Bond-villain-esque tonight.
ReplyDeleteJust sayin'.
ReplyDeleteGWB - he didn't say anything, so it's OK.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm not going to be conservative.
ReplyDeleteThings just got trivial.
ReplyDeleteCan Mormons say screwed?
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna prove I'm the true conservative. How? I'm gonna snub all the grassroots conservatives with their silly pledges and so on.
ReplyDeleterlaWTX, Yep, he would only be good in his fourth year.
ReplyDeleteas long as they aren't drinking or smoking while they say it.
ReplyDeleteHuntsman is the 99%. Oops. Wrong crowd.
ReplyDeleterla, interestingly, Perry tends to start well and then bomb. So maybe he's the anti-Tebow?
ReplyDeleteIf a train leave Chicago at 2:00 pm....
ReplyDeletegood point, T-Rav
ReplyDeletethat wasn't the question, Perry!
ReplyDeleteCan't argue with that.
ReplyDeleteAfter 12 debates, you would think Perry would have learned to speak publicly.
ReplyDeletePerry's cute!
ReplyDeleteRomney kinda has a good answer
ReplyDeleteI missed the beginning. I assume the bleeps are the timer?
ReplyDeleteAm I stoned, or are we more than 15 minutes in and no personal slapdowns on stage so far? Is this how debates are supposed to go?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE to compromise. Vote me a Democratic Congress and I'm gold baby!
ReplyDeletebleep - yep
ReplyDeleteThe Constitution DOES work if you follow it Newt.
ReplyDeletetryanmax, that's actually the countdown timer to the Mayan apocalypse. Prepare now!
ReplyDeleteNewt: Reagan. Reagan, Reagan. Reagan-Reagan-Reagan.
ReplyDeleteReagan!
Thanks, T-Rav! wondered...
ReplyDeleteUh... no.
ReplyDeleteAt once?
ReplyDeletecan she "order" Congress?
ReplyDeleteDoes Bachmann have any original ideas?
ReplyDeleteWhy aren't you guys paying attention to me? I feel ignored.
ReplyDeleteObama can order congress, so why can't she?
ReplyDeleteI'm voting for Huntsman! Woo hoo!!
ReplyDeletebleep
ReplyDeleteOuch, sorry, hit my head with a mallet before the last comment.
ReplyDeleterla, there's this pesky "Constitution" thingamajig that won't let her. I thought she knew.
ReplyDeleteSo far, the beeper is winning.
ReplyDeleteI can't do another site and Commentarama!
ReplyDelete#answer or #dodge. I kinda like it.
ReplyDeleteAnd who will get the Daily Double?
ReplyDeleteBleep.
Whash with thish Baier dude? He'sh talking in short words and being too dishtinct. Where'sh my martini?
ReplyDeleteI figured since she was the expert she knew something I didn't... lol
ReplyDeleteI will say that Fox is being professional tonight and is getting answers. It's just that the answers are all kind of lame.
ReplyDeleteWhat was the last thing Paul said? I missed it.
ReplyDeleteso, can we nominate the Fox panel?
ReplyDeletetryanmax, to answer your question above, no, nothing original.
ReplyDeleterlaWTX, I nominate the beeper.
ReplyDeleteI would prefer the Fox panel.
ReplyDeleteMy only wonder is why they didn't go with the "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" theme music. It'd be much more dramatic that way.
ReplyDeleteFirst win-win-win. Now, no new taxes. I could bust!
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, It does feel like a game show again, doesn't it?
ReplyDeletethe Final Jeopardy music! People always stops when it stops!!!
ReplyDeleteThe music for this Shriner's commercial kinda sounds like the Jeopardy theme, though.
ReplyDeleteMr. tryanmax, I went to Obama and I said, tear down this wall sir.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Fox is winning tonight. And our candidates are still losing.
ReplyDeletehave some corn...
ReplyDeleteStop it, Shelly. You're killing me.
ReplyDeletetext Iowa to vote for tonights new Iowa Idol!
ReplyDeleteFinal debate??? oh just til Iowa...
ReplyDeleteYou will respect us! We're smart! We can do stuff!
ReplyDeleteI've totally become one of those people who addresses people by unapproved nicknames.
ReplyDeleteMr. Obama looked at me and said we couldn't and I say, "yes we can, sir, yes we can."
ReplyDeleteWho cares what Democrats think? That's my question.
ReplyDeletesock-puppets rule!
ReplyDeletetryanmax, okay I'll bite. Who's Shelly?
ReplyDeleteShelly, do you do birthdays?
ReplyDeleteRomney gets points from me tonight for being a businessman and for attacking Obama.
ReplyDeleteGo big bologna!
Michelle Bachmann is Shelly.
ReplyDeleteHey, I wouldn't have a bad time in jail, if you know what I mean.
ReplyDeleteI luv me some technicalities!
ReplyDeleteIsn't habitat for humanity Jimmy Carter's charity?
ReplyDeleteHuh? What?
ReplyDeleteI will say, the attacks on Newt over Freddie and Fannie are stupid.
ReplyDeleteGingrich just said he loves government all over the private sector.
ReplyDeletedon't blame Habitat for Jimmy's insanity...
ReplyDeleteEspecially when there is so much else to attack him for.
ReplyDeletePaul is 100% right on this.
ReplyDeleteDear Ron Paul: Stop making intelligent points. It only misleads people.
ReplyDeleteMore technicalities.
ReplyDeletePANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT, PANDER ALERT
Wow! He brought up Austrian economics. I never expected that to come up in a debate. Too bad most people don't have a clue about them.
ReplyDeleteNo Newt this is bullshit socialism. Go f-yourself you government loving turd.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the attacks on Newt over Fannie and Freddie are stupid, but then he had to go and say what he just said...
ReplyDeletehow are credit unions govt sponsored?
ReplyDeleteGo Bachmann!!!! She's finally right!
ReplyDeleteI love the split screen!
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, absolutely.
ReplyDeleteHis defense should be easy if he weren't a turd.
+10 for Bachmann.
ReplyDelete-1000 for Gingrich
So let me sum up Newt Gingrich's campaign arc: the early debate performances reminded us that Newt can be brilliant and a great debater at times. The more recent performances reminded us that he is Newt Gingrich.
ReplyDeletecan we move on from Freddie & Fannie?
ReplyDeleteYou ARE LYING NEWT!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's what the beepy button was. It was warning us that pandering lay ahead.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a political cartoon once of Newt as Jabba the Hutt? For some reason I have that image in my mind.
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, Newt is now showing us that he's in love with the worst parts of government.
ReplyDeletememememememe
ReplyDeleteI now hate Newt.
ReplyDeleteAndrew, indeed.
ReplyDeleteyep.
ReplyDeleteBe very careful in how you tread here, Newt, lest I turn green and emit smoke from my ears.
ReplyDeleteOH! sic'ing him with Paul Ryan!
ReplyDeleteI like the question, but could he have maybe shortened it?
ReplyDeleteReagan Reagan Reagan.
ReplyDeleteNewt says "Reagan" more than Cain said "9-9-9".
ReplyDeleteEh, I think Andrew's picture of him as a Roman emperor is much more flattering. At least I think it was a Roman emperor...
ReplyDeleteoh yeah, he's a politician...
ReplyDeleteRomney is solid tonight.
ReplyDeleteOh, puh-leeez! The Ryan Plan phases in across, what is it?, 30 years. That's hardly cutting anything out from anyone.
ReplyDeleteT-Rav, I have the perfect picture. I'll update it for next time.
ReplyDeleteCome on guys, be honest. You all would rather see us debate than these jokers, right?
ReplyDeleteAgain with the reach-around, er, reach across the aisle.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's actually a pretty straightforward question. Are you a hypocrite or not? (Hint: the answer is yes.)
ReplyDeleteI vote for the cereal debate.
ReplyDeleteHUH?
ReplyDeleteI never voted for it, except I did.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I agree with what Paul says. However, that is not how Paul presents himself.
ReplyDeletethere was a point?
ReplyDeleteMe taking earmark money is perfectly fine, but don't worry, I'd get rid of it if I could.
ReplyDeleteMmmm, Crunch Berries. (I gots 'em.)
ReplyDelete
