Sinema vs McSally debate wrapped up about an hour ago on KJZZ 91.5

Wow, McSally just lied on-air again...and again...and again.

She actually said that it wasn't fair to call her privatized Medicare plan "privatized" and then proceeded to slam the idea of government Medicare. WTF? She also lied again about her clear record of supporting Social Security privatization and increasing the age of retirement. Like no one can easily pull up her public statements on these matters?

She also repeatedly kissed tRump's ass throughout the debate and tried to dance all around the immigration issue of putting children in cages at the border. She went off on this rant saying that, according to southern AZ ranchers, ALL children coming across the border here are no more than pawns to the drug cartels and that NONE of the immigrant children are related to the adults they're with. Wow...as the kids say, "she a crazy lady."

At the end of this debate McSally went all unhinged trying to squeeze in a bit of her most recent slur campaign about Sinema's 2003 opposition to the Iraq War by repeatedly talking over the moderators to shout at Sinema about "treason" or something and demanding an apology. Again, "she a crazy lady."

Here's the kicker: Seniors I've talked to here actually think their own Medicare is safe and that the privatization talk only applies to the younger end of the baby boomers and generations thereafter, who they don't give a rat's ass about. Absolutely insane, I know, but that gives you an idea of the cuckoo-for-coconuts mindset of McSally's followers.

I am repeatedly struck by the outright, unapologetic selfishness of the older Baby Boomers and their parents, the Me Generation. When you step back and look at things in a generational context, it begins to make perfect sense how we are where we are today.

McSally just looks and acts like a very nasty person. Her shrieking doesn't make her anymore appealing. And yes, the lie after lie got old. But her followers will believe every lie she told. I think the conservatives like unhinged people.
