Should I watch the ReTHUG debate
Will it be good comedy or tragedy?

1. Depends. Is your TV brick proof?

18. In the days when Howard Cosell was on Mon. Night Football
There was this bar in Cleveland that sold raffle tickets before the game. The winner, at a moment of their choosing, when Howard said something outrageous got to heave a brick through the TV. They would buy an old clunker TV for that purpose every week.

29. Pretty funny. It wouldn't have worked with Dennis Miller, because of how quickly
the TV would have been destroyed.


(Miller) Hello There Ladi........(SMASH).......

9. You got that right. They don't admit that they caused the economic
collapse, but they'll blame Obama. No different than DU at all.

36. Not really. On DU, the Obama bashing has to do with his pandering to the right wing, etc.
his penchant for starting more and more wars, and so on.

The GOP debate will be about praising Obama for moar warzz but bashing him for (gasp!) trying to provide health care for people and so on.

14. What?
There's a debate? I'm so out of the loop.

When is it and who's participating? Will there be clowns (besides the contestants)? Maybe a mud pit, or Jell-O?

:party:

16. the GOP stuff stop being comedy to me after 9/11 when I realized their violent rhetoric
about their opponents wasn't hyperbole--they really want to imprison or kill those who disagree with them.

I suspect that part of the motive for the Tea Party astroturf is to replace Republicans in Congress who weren't rabid enough to sign off on the full Pinochet treatment of America. Some little recess in the back of their brain had a spark of conscious, or at least fear of the consequences of failure or the judgment of history. Those people are being replaced by mindless automatons like Michelle Bachmann, who will not hesitate to disappear you or sign your death warrant, and the Democrats mealy-mouthed, half-assed opposition is doing everything to give the GOP a chance to do it.

And the claims are wild.
