So, I'm watching the Democrat debate tonight ... oh my goodness, these people can not become Commander-in-Chief. Near the end Brian Williams (the MSNBC host) allowed them each one question of the other (by the way, it was only Obama, Hillary & Edwards, NBC filed suit to keep Kucinich out & was successful). Hillary asked Obama to cosponsor a bill she is introducing that would prevent President Bush from entering into any treaty or formal governmental agreement with Iraq prior to his leaving office, i.e. permanent bases, economic commitments, etc. They both said they found it UNACCEPTABLE that any agreement of his would bind the hands of the next president with Obama noting, "that's contrary to how democracy is supposed to work." How moronic is that? And how moronic must he think the "people" are to nod along with that? A sitting president crafting and proposing a formal arrangement (be it a treaty or anything else), then proposing it to the Congress (when necessary as with a treaty) for ratification is EXACTLY the way our representative republic is supposed to work. I just can't take the level of animus these 3 candidates have towards American success in Iraq. They are political sophists and novices of the first order and any of them are capable of making Jimmy Carter look like Winston Churchill.... and coming from me, that's saying something.
Also, my boy Romney took Michigan tonight. That makes two second place and two first place finishes (he won a small and little known primary in the mid west who held a very early primary). He now holds the most delegates of any candidate and I think calling him the "front runner" (for now anyway) is appropriate. Did I mention I've been promoting him on our blog since he was at 2% in GOP opinion polls? At any rate, I think watching the Dem debates is about as healthy for my well being as Titus listening to Mike Church.
Odd result for the Dems in Michigan. Hillary wins with 59% (Union state, that was expected), but in second place was "uncommitted" at 30 something %, Kucinich got 4% and Obama & Edwards barely registered (yet Kucinich gets excluded tonight). What the #!!#$%$#?
South Carolina next.... I'll be sure to keep this level of information up since your Killigans soaked brains will no doubt be tallying football scores through the next weeks rather than election results.... he,he.
