I was not going to dignify this debate with a post….but many friends and relatives have been asking me what I thought of it…..so instead to repeating myself I did this post from the notes I had made…..(BTW one of my acquaintances is a TPer)……
CNN/Tea Party Express held a get together to discuss the issues of the day and how they would approach solutions to those problems….the usual suspects were there….Romney, Perry, Bachmann, Santorum, Paul, Huntsman, Newt and Cain…all were in attendence…..
First, it was a pile on of Perry since he is the so-called frontrunner…he and Romney dueled awhile, Huntsman dueled with the two of them, Bachmann just looked like a hater….Paul is just old….Santorum…well he is Santorum…..Newt a snooze and then there was Cain….what can I say about Cain? NO really what can I say about Cain?
The night was full of the evils of Social Security……the demon Obamacare……regulations and the ever present Tax cuts…..the only good thing was that Romney looked presidential and Perry had nothing but tag lines that could be quoted by the mindless…..and since the audience was an indication of the Tea Party…it showeed that these people have NO idea what reality is….and are only capable of applauding shit that makes NO sense to a rational person…..
And then there is CNN…….in their desperate attempt to find viewers they allowed the Tea Party to use them for a circus of garbage….they should be ashamed of their performance and Wolf Blitzer needs to take a couple of Valium and go away……if this was their attempt at relevancy…..THEY FAILED!
Now, Americans want a loser and a winner…..the winner…(may I have a drum roll please)……..was anyone who watched “Spongepants Squareboobs” or Law and Order (it is on continuously for 24 hrs a day)…….the big loser was…….(another drum roll)…….the rational American voter!
I refused to watch but the viral video of the crowd cheering about the man w/out insurance makes me physically ill.
These are the same ignorant fucks that want to keep their Medicare and their fancy chairs that medicare pays for.
Dusty…..I did not want to watch….really….but I am sick I just felt I must…….the TP is just a pathetic bunch of microcephalics…..
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Wait a minute. The audience literally applauded upon hearing of a man without health insurance? What?!?!?!
Yep…it was a disgusting sight and CNN let it ride without any comment….I realize they may want to stay neutral but that deserved some condemnation….
Everything anyone needs to know about the teabaggers can be summed up by their applauding a sick man and denying him a doctor because he had no health insurance Terrance. The video has gone viral and lots of leftwing bloggers are featuring it today.
Dusty, I agree…the sad thing is that to the Teabaggers we are just jealous of their popularity…..the Left has got to find a unity of purpose and stop fighting each other….
It was the “let him die” applause that horrified me.
Spinny…..that one and the applause for all the stuff that they were not aware of…….they applauded and I bet that it was an applause sign…..that is how underhanded CNN has become…..
CNN – Cantankerous Newspork Nuisance.
Larry, I love it! Newspork a new word that I can throw out there…Thanx!
I love the new word too…thanks Mr.Woodgate! 😉
Lobotero,
I haven’t watched a single, solitary Republican debate, nor do I intend to. Those people are so far off the wall I can hardly find words.
And to think that only a few months ago, I was in their camp. I feel so dirty…:-(
I know what you mean…if I was not such a political junkie I would not watch…..at least you are now capable of thinking for yourself and can see that all is not black or white…..my hat is off to you.
