THUD! THUD! And a kick to the groin! I had a wide grin when he told Lehrer that he likes PBS, Big Bird, and Lehrer. But he made it plain that he didn’t want to subsidize PBS. THUD!

[longtermmemmory]

Romney took out the MSM before he had a chance to attack Romney.

The MSM is this is all Lehrer’s falt.

(odd how they did not blame GWBush for Obama’s debate performance)

Best line of the Debate(and there were many). Romney Waxed BO.

[ConservativeDude]

You put $90 billion into green energy,” Romney said. “I’m all for green energy but you could have hired two million teachers with that money.””

That’s a damn good line.

Ok, I am not for green energy, OR for hiring any more teachers. But let’s face it: my agenda of no green energy and firing two million teachers is not, ahem, on the ballot.

So, with that caveat, I return:

That, Governor Romney, is a damn good line. Nicely done!!!

Don't forget that Romney also said he would increase our military budget (which, I believe, would counter Sequestration) to which Obama said, "They didn't even ask for a bigger budget" LOLOL!

Best-----Debate------Ever!

Love it!!!

‘The Federal Government shouldn’t be trying to run the Health Care for all 50 states. THUD!’

Or school lunches. 32 million kids in 100,000 schools according to Vilsac.

[sniper63]

skilled trades instead of the liberal arts crap would be better. Teach the kids to think rather than memorize what the government mandates as an education. Skilled trades are marketable and create jobs, liberal arts are not and don’t. IMHO

They shouldn’t be called school lunches anymore. They are “fill up the trash can with veggies” gatherings.

[AD from SpringBay]

But let’s face it: my agenda of no green energy and firing two million teachers is not, ahem, on the ballot.

Yeah... I hear ya.

[McGruff]

I was looking for Romney to bring up

Good job Mitt.

[Enterprise]

Obama is perfectly ok with increasing military budgets - for OUR ENEMIES!

[milagro]

Great summary! Thanks.

[CAluvdubya]

Excellent point! He would glady gut our defense budget and increase monies given to The Muslim Brotherhood.

[poobear]

LOL! Keep ‘em coming ch!

[generally]

That would explain a lot.

It seems our best defense against moles is for Romney to have a “knock your socks off” answer for everything. This forces Zippy to stay away from almost any topic. He is then restricted to a small box, where basically all he can say is “You’re mean” - the standard lib response when they can’t argue with facts. This makes Zippy look even more impotent and clueless (if that is possible).

Heck, my brother makes $3M a year and he dropped out in 10th grade.

[generally]

Amen to that.

There are thousands of good teachers who practice their skills every day WITHOUT being union members.

And they could also practice their skills without being government employees at all.
