gop debate response

For those of you who decided to watch the GOP debate instead of the Saints game - Congratulations! You're a true American! You haven't thrown away your life to the idiots passing and fumbling balls and scantily clad women trying to relive their high school/college days by throwing pompoms in the air.

So who's who from tonight's debate?

 The assailant.  For somebody who wants to get out of all these wars, he didn't mind creating his own enemies on the GOP stage tonight. "Don't interrupt me!"

 The linguist. Keep your Mandarin for China.








                                        

The one who just needs to drop out.

 The overly qualified whiner. I really liked you, Newt, but you whine more and more every time you open your mouth. Tonight, you lost my vote.

The runner up. Again.
(Got my vote, though)












The winner.
As much as I dislike him, Romney did a good job tonight. I have to give it to him. He didn't attack like Paul and Perry (accusing Paul of being a hypocrite), and he was relaxed and answered questions calmly.  I do, however, need to look back at his statements claiming that no states want to ban contraceptives.

Recently, Mississippi tried to pass an proposition that would ban all abortion and abortifacients. There were, unfortunately, a lot of muddy waters about whether or not contraceptives would be made illegal. Many extreme pro-lifers were OK going without contraceptives  (thank God that wasn't the case, or we'd all look like the Duggars.)

 

A few other states tried this same "Personhood Amendment" we Mississippians tried (Georgia and Colorado?), and also failed. Slightly off topic, but Romney needs to make sure NO states are wanting to ban contraception - because some of them are trying - failing... but trying.

Tonight's debate was good, but I'm looking forward to what tomorrow morning's debate will hold!
