In which the various clown car passengers each attempt to prove that their Bush administration foreign policy advisers are more hawkish and bloodthirsty than their opponents’ Bush administration foreign policy advisers!
And Herman Cain will attempt to convince Republican voters that he could find Libya on a map if his nomination depended on it. Which, let’s be honest, it probably doesn’t.
Enjoy!

Eli!
Want butter on your popcorn?
Bomb Iran on 1 /22/13 end of debate.
Elliott!
Oh! I actually do have kettle corn, I should totally fire that up.
Boy, they are totally in for it, what with Wolf Blitzer’s extensive foreign policy knowledge and incisive questioning skills.
oo dramatic opening
Hahaha, Herman Cain worked for “corporations with global reach”. That *totally* makes him a foreign policy expert!
Is this going to be a who has the biggest something-or-other debate?
Or craziest.
Wow, the glare from that all-white audience is hurting my eyes.
Awesome, Perry finger-gunned his hello to Wolf.
Is he introducing WWE?
The national anthem? Before a debate? Is that normal?
LET’S GET READY TO BUUUUMBLE!!!
Uh-oh, think Ron Paul’s antiwar libertarian doesn’t-fit-typical-political-narrative-MSM-promotes presence made the feed buggy for a moment.
Eli!
*gigglin’*
One-minute answers are probably about all the depth these turkeys can muster.
Already ticked. Is this a debate or the super bowl?
Buzz!
I’m late to the party. Did I miss any ultra-hot, throbbing, pulsating zombie action?
I am going to keep some alcohol within easy reach in case it gets so bad I feel like stabbing my eyes out.
But seriously, it’s demented that these people are on national TV specifically to talk about what badasses they would be if they were CIC.
Dr. Phil redux for Perry
“Wait. You mean we have to talk for a whole minute? Nobody told me about that!”
I appreciate the thought. I’m going to pass on the alcohol, however, and go straight to huffing the glue bag.
“National security: I’m for it. Is that time? Damn.”
Mitt’s first name is actually Willard
eli!
“We want to get you home as soon as we can… so we can send you to Iran.”
suz!
I don’t know what’s more cringe worthy: the fact that Wolf Blitzer told people to introduce themselves by saying something like, “I am Wolf Blitzer and that’s my real name,” or that Mitt Romney mimicked Blitzer and said, “I am Mitt Romney and that’s my real name.”
Mary Kay is Huntman’s wife’s name? Did she drive him to the Zombie Fest in the pink Cadillac?
HEY, ELI. You’re looking for “normal” at a Republican debate?
And Blitzer fans the flames. Jeebuz Xmas, is this going to be a long Zombie Fest…
Operation I-Am-Not-A-Robot is humming along smoothly.
HEY, TWAIN. Well, I mean, is it normal for Republican debates?
Has any candidate suggested doing to Tehran what the Romans did to Carthage?
Newt says we should use all the “tools” at our disposal, so I’m sure he wouldn’t mind if some operatives dropped some state-of-the-art intel equipment right into his favorite Tiffany’s…
Oh good. I found the party!
So as long as they can call it “national security”, the government can do whatever it wants.
Yay Ron Paul
Paul’s nuts, but he occasionally drifts off into quasi-sane territory…
Hey Newt. Stick to divorcing cancer-ridden wives, and leave the grown-up decisions to, ya know, grownups.
Funny how Ron Paul is the only Republican who will talk about “liberty” in the GOP foreign policy debate, when I bet they all use it constantly in the domestic policy debates.
That, by the way, was a provision in the constitution of the Soviet Union.
The ACLU is doing waterboarding now? Who knew?
Is she still running?
Suspected terrorists have no rights. Fascinating.
ACLU interrogations!! I better start brushing up on my Farsi and Arabic.
apparently
Tom Ridge is alive?
Define “running.”
Define “alive.”
Who’s watching them, except for us (well not me, exactly)? If CNN’s advertisers think they are making money on this, they are in for a big surprise, unless CNN is giving its time away for free.
Perry looks scared shitless.
I think it has something to do with saying batshit insane stuff on teevee.
Then again, I guess that means everyone on Fox News is running too.
So given that Wall Street has long-since declared war on the American people, then it would follow that we can use all those “tools” in corporate boardrooms, for example.
Runnin her mouth…
Fuck Perry. He wants to get rid of those dang unions.
Opposite of dick lon cheney
We need to keep the “Pat” in the Patriot Act.
We should not be wasting TSA resources patting down wealthy white people.
Frothy’s into profiling.
I think Frothy should pick Marcus Bachmann as his running mate.
Pretty much clears it up…
I hate the word ‘homeland’. Every time I hear it I cringe.
Younger males?
Great two-shot of Paul’s reaction to Santorum.
Is he bringing up the rear ?
Well, Knut, it is a humorous proposition – somebody is watching this looking for substantive information with which they can narrow down their voting choice? CNN’s premise is exactly that.
We all know it’s “gaffe-watch”, and possibly drinking games.
Paul is slapping the shit out of these cretins on civil liberties…
“Targeted Identification” sure sounds a lot like “profiling”…
Cain needs to tell everyone about his 999 surveillance plan…
Herman Cain is objectively pro-bathwater.
I don’t like anything much about Ron Paul, except his anti-war stance, but I would take him over Newt any time. Newt is just so sleazy.
The answer to everything is privatization.
Herman Cain wins because he said “KILL” first.
same here
“No, Blitz.”
In targeted identification, ya know em when yo see em
Blitz?
it’s nice that someone that stage speaks out
Blitz is a comedian. Who knew?
Define “comedian”.
Kagan!
Pretty sure his last name is Krieg.
creepy having this crowd asking the questions.
Good point. In some parallel universe, hopefully about 450 gagillion light years away…
Huntsman at least seems to have some idea what he’s talking about.
Well, in terms of the situation, not the prescription.
That’s the biggest fucking joke: “you’re a member of the intelligence committee”
Hey Blitz: When are you going to ask them about the current president whacking out Bin Laden, etal? I want to see some tap-dancing.
How can something be *more* than an existential threat?
That’s why he’s at 2%
They probably say, “Here she comes. Give her the plain-vanilla stuff on Luxembourg and hide the important shit.”
He just needs to follow up all those facts with “…and that’s why we need to kill them all” and he’ll be fine.
Perry puts on the crazy hat.
Or punch Mitt.
Cause it’s real, real big and all gianty and stuff…
“….or into Barstow. That’s how serious this is…”
Is there another R “debatiness?’
They’re giving him a chance to speak. Maybe he’ll be the flavor of the week. I believe it’s his turn.
It would not only wipe the US out of existence, it would go back in time and prevent us from ever existing in the first place and kill our entire family.
When has the flavor of the week candidate not been a loon?
Anyone think that Michelle may be saying more than she should about our dealings with Pakistan?
Pre-debate analysis.
Perry looks like he wants to make a move on Mitt or something.
Whew, that’s a relief!
Perry may be packing heat
The zombies do have a role here – they are asking the questions.
If they are brain feeders, they are looking at their watches wondering when they can get out of that building.
Pakistan is the 6th largest country in the world? Really? Gotta google that.
“Too nuclear to fail?”
The ankle-holster, at least…
Populationwise, that could actually be true. Dunno offhand, tho.
10000 troops in afpak. I’ll vote for him.
Mitt: Fuck you, Jon.
Yep, the not-Romney choice next week is going to be Huntsman.
Shit Huntsman makes sense.
Jon: Mitt, your fly is open.
I was just thinking about that, too. I think it’s because he’s old enough to remember when the US was still a real country. That’s what Reagan’s problem was, and is why they don’t raise his name in these foreign policy shout-fests. I don’t know why they do this at night. They should pre-empt the soaps in the afternoon. That’s where their target audience lives. (are there soaps anymore in the afternoon?)
Hike up your magic underpants, Willard, and show ‘em what you got…
Also…If you spot it, you got it.
Newt is confused, oh shit now i’m confused.
“Gingrich is what stupid people think a smart person sounds like.”
Kill the paks says Newt.
I think the exchange between Romney and Huntsman was the first time Romney looked like the loon. Usually he looks like the sane one. Not in that exchange.
More Ron Paul reaction shots, please.
yea,
Yes. They should have stuck with Heimat. It has a braver, sharper, ring.
Uh-oh. Frothy’s gettin’ all Frothy. All bets are off.
we gotta fight them there or we will fight them here says sante
Maybe he’ll be the next flavor of the month. I think he’s the only crazy who hasn’t had a turn yet.
He has a wild look
So far I’m voting for Huntsman.
LOL. I like the way Newt spreads out his arms when he speaks like he’s Jesus Christ.
CNN wants us to send them our questions. Here’s mine:
“Why are all you candidates so fucking stupid and insane? We’ll let you begin, Willard.”
Marcy on twitter
Newt: In case you’ve forgotten I’m a history professor, I’m going to drone on and on and on.
A sane, reasonably knowledgeable Republican is Obama’s worst nightmare. Lucky for him Huntsman has no shot. Mitt would still be a threat tho.
Willard: Well, Blintz, I resemble that.
Could be. Willard can worry (again) that he won’t be asked to the prom.
Only in population. You gotta define large like living large. Pakistan doesn’t live large. They do have a couple of big ones, though.
classic Krugman quote
That seems to be the consensus of the pundit class…which is exactly why he’s Wall Street’s boy.
Yup. I just about fell out of my chair when I read it.
The audience is just as competent as the candidates.
OWS in the audience?
How tall is Blitz?
bomb bomb bomb iran
who asked that last question?
Herman is up. First make sure they have a plan. You should know that now idiot.
“Iran is a mountainess region.” Does Cain know that there’s this invention called “airplanes?”
Israel can do whatever it wants as long as it succeeds.
Mike Gonzalez, Heritage.
Does Israel have planes?
Israel wouldn’t do it. I’m sure.
Or, conversely, the Pillsbury Dough-Boy
Ron Paul with the best argument ever on why we don’t need to help Israel. “Israel can take care of itself.”
But Herman Cain points out that Iran has mountains and the attack plan has to be good. Because he can evaluate that better than than the Israeli military, apparently.
These AEI folks are lookers, no?
I’m going to start calling Newt “Dumpling.”
ahh thanks
http://www.heritage.org/about/staff/g/mike-gonzalez
Danielle Pletka is another overrated hawkhag..
Sanction the central bank? Huh? WTF I didn’t know the banks had bombs too.
There’s an area over there …
If Willard loses Iowa and can’t trump them all in New Hampshire, the same people who made the “black baby” meme fly against McCain in 2000 will be telling South Carolinians all about Willard’s grandparentS (very plural, if you know what I mean and I think you do) who fled to Mexico to birth and raise his Dad George. Several wives and a boy born abroad who then tried to run for Prez.
Plus, you know, gold plates and magic underwear.
he…he…he…Wolf asked Newt to “weigh in”…he…he…he
Whoa. Newt goes Drill Baby Drill squared – not only will we drill enough oil for ourselves, but enough for all of Europe too!
And the dog on the roof
Hey Assholes (You too, Blitz): Prove you can read.
Sanction the bank? does that mean they can’t print money?
Yeah, those Southreners hate their cultists and loooove their hounds.
“The Keystone Pipeline and Israel striking Iran.” Yeah, I can see the connection. Jeebuz Holy Fuck, is she completely batshit insane…
Yeah, let’s bomb Putin’s gas lines to Yurp so we can be their exclusive supplier. Makes as much sense as every single other thing the History Professor says.
Obama appeased Iran by *meeting* with them without preconditions! Traitor!!!
Wolfowitz isn’t in prison?
Did Michele pour water for the gentlemen again tonight?
wolfowitz? o no. not again. he won’t go away, mom
OMG…Wolfowitz is a scholar.
Wolfowitz *shudder*
“Africa was a country on the brink.”
Ya think?
“Scholar” and “American Enterprise Institute.” There’s your big-time oxymoron.
Frothy’s about to break down
:) Must have been talking to Palin again.
Heh, Rick almost said that America comes to the aid of people in America. Can’t say that here.
Cain, he needs his depends.
Hush! We’re looking forward here.
If she did, I missed it. I can’t keep up with all the myriad festivities.
Paul almost sounds sane, again.
The dog on the roof should be enough to disqualify him. You gotta be a special kind of stupid to do that.
“Nobody want’s to cut anything?” That’s not true. I want to cut off everyone’s microphone in that whole fucking auditorium. For starters.
Paul is losing it
How many less will we be able to kill as many Muslims for a trillion ?
The comedy stakes are rising, alright…
Paul’s gonna drop trow any minute
Romney’s okay with $10 gas. Freedom isn’t free!
Obamacare is going to bankrupt the country…just like Romneycare did to Massachusetts. Ron Paul missed a softball in his last response.
Romney knows how to troll for money.
Newt’s got wood
Victoria Jackson to ask the next question. Look for the reference to her cat, Toonces.
When I hear the name Wolfowitz, I remember him licking his hand and pushing his hair back with said hand. Classy.
Romney held his own there but he’s being challenged effectively in this debate and not looking so good. IMHO.
“mooning” is so yesterday but it’s about the only thing they haven’t done.
Eew
There is so much oil in the world, I knew it. Now Newt confirmed it.
No…he licked his comb.
“If I don’t put in my buck-o-five, who will?”
Double Eew.
Well, okay. As long as he didn’t do anything gross.
I had almost managed to obliterate that from my mind. The comedy never stops..
Huntsman, debt is a problem Fuck you lost me asshole. No such thing we can’t run out of money.
So do we fix the trust deficit by cutting trust spending or raising trust taxes?
japans lost
decade3 decades was due to debt. did huntsman say that?Perry, central banks again?
Maybe he’s moved up to a bottle of santorium
Perry: Did you say trigger?
The president done it. Yeah, well.
Perry’s a fucking lunatic.
Leon Panetta should resign. Ok by me
Perry desperately tap-dancing to say that he knows how to work with Democrats but without saying that he would raise taxes.
NOt only that.. He’s crazy.
“Working day in and day out…” Reports from Texas suggest that that’s just exactly the opposite of Perry’s typical MO.
Frothy looks like he’s pinching a loaf
Santorum seems unclear on the concept of 75-80%…
Don’t cringe, Mary. Brylcream (are you old enough to remember Brylcream? “A little dab’ll do ya.” I am.) kills lice.
Oh no. Please tell me this is a joke.
That’s how he gets his inspiration…
Michell looks lonely.
Heh, Obama’s the one who’s poisoned the well and divided Americans against each other.
Why are all these crazy fucks yelling? Oh yeah, because they’re crazy fucks. Never mind.
We seem to have gotten off the foreign policy/national security track a bit…
Geez, all they got are the Koch bros think tanks
No one is even attempting to challenge this stupid, mentally-retarded austerity meme.
BrylcrEEm, to you
Newt is just an encylopedia of knowledge ?
Lot of corpulent in that crowd, too
Cmon Michells bring it home.
The *Democrats* won’t even challenge it, why would you expect the Republicans to?
My voice said this ..
You’re wrong. Michelle is the lunatic.
I’d like to see them play a game of Twister to determine who gets the nomination. Naked, of course. I got a gallon of brain bleach right here.
We are sending China our precious purity of essence!
Did you miss bomb, bomb, bomb , that’s their answer to anything so there’s nothing further to debate there.
Was it aa loud voice?
Hey Crazy Dumbasses: The “Central Issue” is jobs, not the fucking deficit.
I had a sinking feeling about the “ea” vs “ee” issue…but I failed to follow my gut. I used to use the stuff, back when i had hair, but I never read the label.
Not to mention bodily fluids
But if you take away people’s money, it will create jobs because more people will need them! Simple!
Never thought I’d be so grateful for a commercial break.
BTW: Thanks for reading my work.
These guys don’t give up. They are determined to correct GWB’s only failure and get rid of Social Security.
Why???? Someone tell me why. If it was never raided, SS doesn’t have anything to do with the deficit. Is it so everyone will put their money in the stock market? Or are they just mean?
I was sort of referring to Blitz. I had a spell and a weak moment. Blitz is just as repugnant as the crazy fucks on the stage. CNN has slid so far since the Turner days…
No, that was Hillary and Burma, tomorrow’s Hitler. But, yeah, same/same.
I will refrain from telling you what I used it for
OMG! There’s the answer. I knew there was an answer. Good on you, Eli.
So does that mean Mittens comes from a Fundamental Mormon sect?
Hey…that makes perfect sense!
Stand by.
Problem with Egypt …Bomb em ,next question.
That’s beyond referring to oneself in 3rd person…I guess it must be at least 4th person when you’re describing yourself in terms of “what your voice says.”
Then again, Michele does hear voices all the time, and some of them even belong to breathing people.
Panetta should be tried as a war criminal at The Hague.
But, yeah, resigning works as a start, I guess.
But you need to learn how to “stand by”.
No, it means it was a long time ago. Just after the law forbidding polygamy passed and Utah became a state, many Utahs fled to Mexico to live their lives as they saw fit. Oh, and they took their several wives as well.
All fucking Kochs asking qs.
Oh my goodness. I was going to pop in and say Hi to Eli.
But, wowsers, 260 comments!
I’ll be part of the flotsam.
(Hi, anyways)
Perry’s gonna eat this shit up.
If tomorrow with changed our ways and turned over every war criminal to the Hague is it really that big ?
Oh good, we almost forgot the *other* brown people who will kill us all.
Hi demi!
Geez, aren’t there any citizens who aren’t executives at Heritage foundation or american enterprise institute who have any political curiosity?
Their Wall Street Sponsors want that money outta the lockbox, with the “meaningless bonds” cashed out and put into Personal Accounts managed by the monsters who crashed our economy and ruined household wealth three years ago. And are on track to do it again.
That’s why. They are paid to say it, essentially.
Perry, yeah, we got to get the fucking infiltrators. Put up a fence and hire Herman to put the juice in it.
Drones
That audience is freeking scary. When was the last time you saw so many old white people?
In fairness, I did see a bunch of young white people too.
Blitzer is the record-setting Celebrity Jeopardy! contestant.
He ended the first two rounds with $4000. In the red.
He had to be given a pity grand to continue to Final Jeopardy, to try to win some money for his charity. He lost that too.
Not only not the sharpest tool in the shed. Not really in the shed at all.
I know, my family tree is a wreath too. But some of them came back and still live like that in open secret. Someone should/could check on that.
Wanna end the cartel violence? Wanna generate some govt revenue? End the war on drugs, sell pot in drug stores, and collect taxes on it.
Anybody remember what created organized crime? Prohibition.
AEI. Heritage.
Early Bird dinner at Carrow’s.
Paul makes sense again. I hate that shit.
I did not know that. Doesn’t surprise me, though.
Thank you.
See? Paul is at least as smart as me.
Sounds like SNL Celebrity Jeopardy, with categories like “Colors That End In Urple”.
Cain: “Let me tell you about my “999 Electric Fence” plan…”
Invade Mexico. That will fucking fix it.
Is that a pubic hair on Cain’s nose?
I don’t mind old white people. Old white people who all want to bomb the middle east into glass, that’s scary.
Integration?
I think we are already working on the solution: Once our economy sucks as bad as Mexico’s, no one will want to immigrate here anymore.
Do that have any actual human beings in the auditorium, or is it all just half-bright think-tank bots?
We only want the smart immigrants, preferable with several million. Fuck the poor and starving bastards looking for a better life.
Frothy’s into trickle down
CNN is rehabilitating discredited neocon war hawks. Paul is the only peg to the ground in this debate.
Wow, I think Santorum actually just said that trickle-down doesn’t work. Now he’ll probably be burned as a witch.
“Trickle down” that money. Yeah, that’ll fix everything. Go Frothy…
Santorem always smirks when he completes an answer….so proud he got it all out…even if his answers are nuts.
Progressive post-debate opinion roundup in a nutshell: I’m for Ron Paul.
Not surprising as Ron is what Obama isn’t a pro-peace, anti-war, pro-liberty, anti-police state, pro-free market, anti-corporate welfare candidate.
If the price of peace is whittling down the welfare state, I’m all for it.
By the by, one cannot be for the environment and against austerity.
Newt is too smart for these dumb asses. Or at least he seems so?
What?
Poor Reagan, always getting fooled. But still the greatest President. /s
Dead wrong.
What’s startling is the lack of anything but white people.
Michelle is a fucking idiot.
And that’s startling why?
Michelle nobody wants to work for chinese wages, that’s the problem.
One HAS to be against austerity to be for the environment
Not the word I would have chosen…
How long before he brings Raygun ghost back” there you go again” ?
It seemed in the beginning that they were going to give Huntsman a chance to shine but they must have changed their minds.
Bring in the “best and brightest.” So who’s gonna mow your lawn, you? Jagoff…
We want the brains in our country. Fuck the OWS people who can’t pay for an education. Is that what you’re saying?
The audience on the Lawrence Welk show.
Shoto: Must be a Yinzer, no?
Wunnerful-a-wunnerful…
Let someone else educate them.
And a one and a two …
Newt is going to win this one.
Newt actually seems to be the sanest by far on immigration.
Humane? Nice knowing you, Newt.
Stop the magnets
“here we go again” — Perry to Gingrich. You gotta laugh!
Perry is out.
Secure the border? Remove the “magnet” incentive of moving illegal pot and cocaine.
Perry calls for ‘boots on the ground’ and drones. Oh, noes!!!
Perry gets all worked up..red face, flash in the eyes, the works. All he’s missing is the six-gun…
yes, sad, but yes.
Aviation = drones with Hellfire missiles.
Maybe he’ll rename the Predator as the “Minuteman”.
Perry has years of experience stopping illegals.
The borders leak illegals like a sieve.
Huh?
Or should I say: WTF?
Quick break. Stand by.
That’s what you think
OOH, this could get interesting. How many of those on stage have concealed carry permits????
Can’t wait for Newt to tell us that the Arab Spring people should get a job and a bath.
Good point.
Awesome, now they’re going to tell us all about why they hate the Arab Spring while maybe also insisting that Dubya doesn’t get enough credit for encouraging it.
Several, I’m sure.
The DFH’s ruined all dubya’s HARD work.
David Addington, this should be good…
Because we are a melting pot. And, I think everyone here enjoys being part of a diverse nation. The mixing of cultures is what makes life more interesting. But if you look at that audience, it’s a sea of white. And what’s scary is that that’s the ideal for the members of that audience. It’s within their comfort zone to be with people exactly like themselves. Anything else is seen as a threat. It’s a mindset that we don’t understand.
Addington. Another wild man.
Um, Herman, we haven’t talked much about growing the economy because this is a FOREIGN POLICY debate.
Let’s just announce we are taking over the world.
They keep restating the demonstrable lie that defense is being “weakened,” and Dipshit Blitz just lets it go. He’s a complete joke.
Take a look at that wall paper AEI, Heritage, CNN.. Are these all part of the same family now?
“Lemme tell you about my “999 Drone Plan.”"
Look, the Republicans put their token on the stage. I wouldn’t expect there to be many others in the audience at the Heritage/AEI debate. I’m sure that if there were a person of color or two, the camera would be on them constantly. I think it’s rather unsurprising that these folks are safely ensconced with their “own kind.”
Dipblitz? Blitzshit?
Huntsman, I thought they were freezing him out.
Picky, picky, picky
I think you’re onto something there.
Stand by, I’ll get back to you on that.
I did see one shot with about three people of color.
“Critical threats project?”
Koch money.
Newt’s got wood again
I used to hang out with Al Shabob’s sister, Shish-Kabob Shabob.
It’s the world you know.
Those al-shababs are good with mushrooms, onions, some protein of your choice and maybe pineapple…
lol
Why doesn’t little Rickie get to talk?
Paul don’t get, we are the world you know.
The Wife-Bot is gonna have to earn her Tiffany’s baubles tonight…
Speaking of “multi-polar.”
multi-polar ice caps…they’re melting, you know
RAM a dama ding dong
No other nation can be exceptional and unique except maybe Israel.
Does anyone worry about all this fucking war talk?
Bomb. bomba bomba
Not anymore than usual…
Ushers ?
I think it’s rama-LAMA-ding-dong
We better get serious about Syria.
These AEI and Heritage folks should try a salad
A castor bean salad…
Finally…we get to hear something from that font of world knowledge
You’re right. My apologies.
I’m so sad that this is about to end
We can just team up with France and England, bomb the heck out of them and it’s done. No prob.
Paul’s come off as the most sane….relatively speaking, of course.
These guys are too funny. Now they’re all going to have to promise that their first trip as prez will be to Israel.
Satan lives amongst the details.
China is not a nation of virtues. Unlike us.
If China goes in the dustbin of history who will supply Walmart.
That’s because he really believes what he’s saying. The others don’t. IMO
Yes, they’re sounding more like Israelis everyday.
If I didn’t know this thing was real, I’d assume it was a half-assed comedy show, or REtard’s Night Out. Just…fucking…wow….
the last Republican debate, actually
If they don’t, they will have to go to New York City. It’s the only place you can get a decent corned beef special with latkes.
Herman was a ballistics scientist? Live and learn.
Herman is an expert on cyber porn
Yup. He might also be thinking, “What the hell, I’ve got nothing to lose,” although I don’t really think he’s astute enough to formulate such a thought.
Santorum…fear of socialism
Paul…. fear of overreaction on our part, jumping into another war, our persistent meddling.
Perry….fear of communist China, not a country of virtues
Romney… immediately, Iran becoming nuclear. Fear of South America… islamist terrorists hanging out in the south.
Cain…fears cyber attacks
Gingrich… what?
Bachmann…. off on Obama again… al Shabab is in MN.
Huntsman…. problem is right here at home…joblessness, lack of opportunity, debt, weak at home.
Lets see, central and south america, mexico, China, Iran, Syria, AFPak, Hezballah, computers, ghosts, Iraq, jobs (huh? sanity?) Aww shit the whole fucking world is a threat to us. Take it over.
He uses a “salad shooter” to put toppings on his pizzas. You didn’t get the memo?
He studied the trajectory of pizza flight paths whilst being tossed
Anyone think this was Romney’s worst debate?
John King, another major-league dipshit.
lol
Yow. 372 comments??? WTF is going on?
EDIT: 398 comments?
Yes, he exposed himself even more as a panderer and demagogue but that might be a plus with reactionaries.
Newt looks like the expert. He’s laughing like he knows it.
Yes
Dana Loesch is now a “CNN Contributor?” The Peter Principle in action. Is this “Complete Fucking REtard Idiot Moran” night on CNN?
Didn’t they hire her instead of Andrew Breitbart after the uproar over his hire? -she comes from his big journalism site as well.
CNN must have been bought by the neocons or something.
am i to understand from this that there’s been/is now happening another republican debate?
coming in late: were there any highlights? lowlights is probably a better question.
LOL
Great post and thread.
