CNN Debate
Here we go again. The next debate is Wednesday night on CNN at 7:00 p.m. It's been awhile, so I'm ready for this one. Interesting that it's on Ash Wednesday. I wonder if the two Catholics will have ashes on their foreheads????? So, if you're up for it, I'll be ready to blog at 8:30. Who's in?

I'm in and yes, actually looking forward to it. I will be starting at 830p as usual.
ReplyDeleteI still need to check church services times. I will let you know whether or not I can be locked and loaded by 8:30. If not, I'll catch up, but even with a 7:00 service time, I should be ready to go by 8:30. I'll text Katie. Mattie, we'd love to have your snarls, too.
ReplyDeleteNo dice kiddo. I gots pork to eats.
ReplyDeleteSeriously Mattie? It's Ash Wednesday. Couldn't you at least eat a token shrimp today?
ReplyDeleteIt is? Double portion then. :)
ReplyDeleteLet the games begin
ReplyDeleteAmen, son. Armed and dangerous.
ReplyDeleteA second helping of John King.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I hate the term "hashtag"
ReplyDeleteA bold purple tie for the Gingrich Zepplin
ReplyDeleteI like John King. Let's see if I still do after the debate. No ashes. Darn. And here's a newsflash - I'm giving up pop and cussing for Lent. Might be real hard tonight.
ReplyDeleteSitting down tonight
ReplyDeleteNo cussing, good luck with that. SHUT UP RON... No ashes, they had to put make up on for tv
ReplyDeleteYea, the sitting down looks weird. I love the first question - finally - THE DEBT. And Santorum leads off with entitlement reform. FINALLY!!!!
ReplyDeleteTHE DEBT, AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood percentages from Santorum, entitlements vs defense
ReplyDeleteRomney punches Rick, then blathers on...I am so done with him.
ReplyDeleteYes. Rush tries to get that through people's thick heads all the time. I'm sick of hearing about Romney's "record." I never did like him, and I like him less and less now as Santorum gets stronger and smoother in his responses.
ReplyDeleteRomney is full of it, he makes my teeth itch.
ReplyDeleteI'm done with him, too. In fact, I never STARTED with him.
ReplyDeleteNewt answers the question with out attacking anyone. Unlike the other three
ReplyDeleteLet's think of adjectives for Romney. I'll start with insincere. Oh there! Ron Paul is playing my game! He's FAKE!
ReplyDeleteSHUT UP RON PAUL....He gets older and more crazy as these debates go on
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm fast forwarding Ron Paul.
ReplyDeleteMan I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE Ron Paul...go away
ReplyDeleteRick gets the first tea party mention
ReplyDeleteSitting the way they are, the candidates are in close proximity to each other. Kind of uncomfortable when they're going after each other. Wow. Gotta hand it to Rick for going after the Holy Grail - social security.
ReplyDeleteSide comment as Romney blathers. I have been impressed with Rick for several weeks now. He handles himself well and he seems very comfortable in his speeches and in his interviews. He has really grown on me.
ReplyDeleteSick of Romney's record...I'm pro life, I'm pro Catholic, blah blah blah. Insincere is right, I don't believe him
ReplyDeleteI have ashes on my forehead. I did not get the debates taped so I have no idea what's going on. Matt's comic below was hilarryous.
ReplyDeleteNewt wheels the question back to Arizona
ReplyDeleteOh and Boo Boo just walked down stairs, grabbed a book and sat in his dads chair. She's so dang cute I'm letting him.
ReplyDeleteHi Kate, yeah I loved Matt's comment. No ashes for me, sorry
ReplyDeleteShe's!!! OMG, I mean HE'S
ReplyDeleteMatt's comic, not comment
ReplyDeleteThis debate is not going well. Way off topic/issues now. Earmarks? Really...
ReplyDeleteNo ashes for Mattie, either. Hi Katie! I don't want to hear about ear marks. Let's get back to medicare and social security and the debt.
ReplyDeleteA debate of infighting, no ideas
ReplyDeleteOnce again, we're thinking alike, Terry. Who the heck is going to stop the earmarks anyway. MOVE ON!!!
ReplyDeleteInfighting, infighting, infighting, and the natives are getting restless...me too
ReplyDeleteOMG! The crowd boos and Romney folds. Obama will eat him alive.
ReplyDeleteI picked up Evan a rice bowl from church. He started putting pennies in it and I was trying to explain the purpose of the rice bowl. Then I started asking him questions. I said, now, who is this money for? "Grammy and Pop Pop"
ReplyDeleteSo, then I just said, no it's for the him (pointing to the little boy on the box) and now Evan wants to meet him, wants to know his name, where he lives, where are his parents, why doesn't the bank give him money.
Come on John King. Get ahold of this.
ReplyDeleteDemogotcha fight, bless you Newt.
ReplyDeleteI love me some Evan!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone care about my rice bowl??
ReplyDeleteKing is not getting ahold of this because he doesn't want to. Them infighting and arguing over menutia helps BHO
ReplyDeleteNewt! Newt! Newt!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm watching Idol as well. I like the Heejun Han.
ReplyDeleteYes, we LOVE your rice bowl story! You're right Terry. Anything for BHO. Paul disses congress all the time. Guess what, Ronnie! You're a part of Congress!!!!
ReplyDeleteRick is going mushy, "on principal" he disagreed...
ReplyDeleteRick is fading under the spot light of "front runner." I am really wanting to like him, but in the debates I don't feel it.
ReplyDeleteAmerican Idol rocks this year. I like that guy, too, Katie. I haven't watched all of it yet, Katie, so don't give it away. "Nice try" says Romney. He's just snotty.
ReplyDeleteRomney is going to win by the skin of his teeth only to get clobbered by BHO. Come on House and Senate control
ReplyDeleteYea, Rick got in the weeds there for awhile. I think he'll come back. I still think he would do better against BHO than Romney would. What do you think about that Terry?
ReplyDeleteIt's the Rick vs Mitt show...
ReplyDeleteYeah, Rick would go after BHO but I am still not sure about him. Newt 1, Rick 2, Romney 3.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that Romney understands what BHO is all about. Rick does. When Romney starts his condescending attitude toward BHO, it will be ugly and awkward. Once again, Newt brings clarity.
ReplyDeleteNewt is doing a good job of making about BHO and his ideas. The others are infighting.
ReplyDeleteGood call, when Mitt goes snotty on BHO it will back fire on him BIG TIME
ReplyDeleteI also like the Asian girl, Jessica Sanchez (yes Sanchez but I'm telling you I thinks he's Asian). I'm voting 100% Asian in Idol this year.
ReplyDeleteLook at Rick shake his head on the birth control issue.
ReplyDeleteOfficially skipping Ron Paul...I cannot stand listening to him anymore. Even when he is right I cannot take it.
ReplyDeleteShe's/he's. Goodness I can't get it straight. Okay, I'm out. I need to put Boo Boo back to bed.
ReplyDeleteThat's twice in a row that Newt takes the debate to Obama. Whoa! Mitt goes after George S.
ReplyDeleteBirth control is the biggest non-issue
ReplyDeleteYup, Newt spins the question correctly. NEWT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYup, Mitt spins the question correctly as well. He's probably pissed Newt beat him to the punch
ReplyDeleteWell, the issue isn't birth control at ALL!!!!! It's a freedom of religion issue. Heck yes - fast forward Ron Paul!
ReplyDeleteRick spins it to a culture issue. Children raising children.
ReplyDeleteGood answer Rick. Just because I talk about it doesn't mean I want government to fix it.
ReplyDeleteRick talking passionately. He gets points there. Mitt is not capable of talking passionately like that.
ReplyDeleteMitt's doing well on this one, too. Every time they bring up birth control, they need to redirect to the REAL issues. Don't take the bait! You watch - Mitt is going to get accused of racism on part of his answer to this question. They are brave enough to take on family issues. King is taking every opportunity to stir up a fight. I'm so sick of that.
ReplyDeleteYup, King is stoking the infighting
ReplyDeleteMitt talking Catholic church and adtoption. About 3 debates after Newt raised the topic.
ReplyDeleteNewt's purple tie goes along with Lent. There he goes -the coercion of the state. Bingo. Throws in "abyss." Nice.
ReplyDeleteWe are on the same page
ReplyDeleteHave you heard about the Paul/Romney coalition? It's on full display tonight. Paul is going after Rick, not Mitt. It's SOOOO obvious tonight.
ReplyDeleteYup, Mitt scared and making deals. Paul is Mitt's attack dog, ignoring Mitt and Newt.
ReplyDeleteHeaping on Rick, Mitt would and will crumble when the weight gets put on him.
ReplyDeleteWow! Even visually, there it is. Paul on his right, Romney on his left, and the Paul and Romney camps are in cahoots. This is a BIG test for Rick. If he can weather this, he'll come out stronger. He may not be giving the best answers, but he's not letting them of the crowd get under his skin. He's keeping his cool.

ReplyDeleteThey've also got their monkeys in the crowd. Rick is holding up well.
ReplyDeleteGood call, Rick is getting squeezed...
ReplyDeleteMitt blames Rick for Spector and Obmamacare....WOW
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA Rick slaps Mitt with Dukakis
ReplyDeleteRomney is snotty!!!!! Look at him clap in Rick's face. He's a puke. Nice line on Dukakis. Rick has an answer on Spechter. Wait for it.
ReplyDeleteThis is getting ugly...........Newt and Paul in Siberia
ReplyDeleteEvery conservative worth his or her salt KNOWS that supreme court nominees are one of THE most important issues!!!! Romney, you aren't a conservative or you would understand that.
ReplyDeleteI think the sitting has created the shouting. It's about proximity and being more relaxed. Have them stand. CNN created this scenario.
ReplyDeleteHello Rick Perry!
ReplyDeleteCNN is loving this, win for BHO. Newt is killing it, but the fireworks going off next to him are dwarfing him.
ReplyDeleteGood Lord, yes. We have 4 states on the border. Let those governors get in on this thing. Good answer on the border, Newt.
ReplyDeleteHello Sheriff Joe!!!
ReplyDeleteI want someone to go back and see how many things Mitt says he will do on day one. He better make changing days to 36 hours his day one executive orders to make it possible for him to get all his day one things done.
ReplyDeleteWell, it was Santorum's turn to get hammered. He is the frontrunner now. He HAS to handle it. I'm not so sure we've had any great moderators yet. Fox wasn't a whole lot better.
ReplyDeleteNo satan question yet. Wow.
ReplyDeleteNewt is the only one not taking the bait, spins every question back to BHO
ReplyDeleteYup. Newt is relaxed and on point tonight.
ReplyDeleteRick goes all Dan Rather with "Courage" Newt nails it again.
ReplyDeleteWomen in combat. They are laying the 2 by 4s to Santorum tonight
ReplyDeleteI thought Newt was going to say conservative. Missed opportunity for 3 of them.
ReplyDeleteOh yea. This is Rick's baptism by fire. Didn't like his courage word, either. And he should have said courageous, not courage. I just passed gas.
ReplyDeleteffffffffffffffftttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
ReplyDeleteI look forward to your comments more than theirs, Terry. Newt bringing it back to BHO again. Good response on the risk factor in our world today. So true. Newt calling BHO the most dangerous president on natl. security. LOVE IT!!!
ReplyDeleteI say that and then you give me a fart noise. Good grief.
ReplyDeleteJohn King tries to go to gas amid a question of Iran and nukes. Make the gas issue a seperate topic. Not liking King and CNN tonight.
ReplyDeleteRon Paul is fuming on Iran. I gotta listen to his answer now.
ReplyDeleteFinally someone goes after Paul's lunacy. Newt again. Santorum's people aren't very vocal in the crowd. Newt's are more vocal. You're right. Gas???? Mitt reacts to that appropriately.
ReplyDeletePaul is CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCertifiable. I am NOT going to listen to him again. Seriously. I'm done.
ReplyDeleteRick and the others do a good job of pointing out the schitzophrenic nature of BHO's middle east policy. Here, not there, over here, but not over there.
ReplyDelete"Proflic proliforator" ffffffffffffffftttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
ReplyDeleteHey. I liked that. He said it right. And it's good alliteration, too. Did smiley Bretey teach you that. Or Hoopy?
ReplyDeleteHoopy
ReplyDeletePolitics is a team sport....tough to swallow but true
ReplyDeleteThey're making nice now. Nothing like an Iranian madman to give us a kumbayah moment.
ReplyDeleteEducation reform? That's easy. Dump the federal dept. of ed.
ReplyDeleteYou're ahead of me. The team sport comment. Is that going to come back to haunt him?
ReplyDeleteWait for Newt, he nails it. Yes/no on the team sport. He is right, sounds terrible, but it is true.
ReplyDeleteRace to the top sucks. Charter schools - yes.
ReplyDeleteAmen on the teacher unions! It's a travesty!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNewt, still on board
ReplyDeleteMitt, asshole (you can't say it cause of lent but I can)
Rick, bloodied and still not feeling him
Ron, Loco McCrazy and I am done listening to him
Newt got his talking points in on the misconception question, but he did answer it.Romney is an ass. He wasn't answering the question and he never did.
ReplyDeleteIt was all talking points for him. He is an ass. Period. That's not cussing. It's the truth.
I'm out, love you Ma!
ReplyDeleteI was writing my "ass" comments before you called him an a-hole. We are, once again, right in sync. Fun evening, Terry. Night. Night.
