Q.   Who Won The CNN Republican Debate?
A.    Hillary Clinton!


Quoted Text
Clinton is putting forward policy after policy that address America’s great problems. These Republicans
are just making stuff up.
Eventually, issues will matter. And voters will see what they saw in 2008 and 2012, two elections when
Republicans couldn’t believe they lost to such a lightweight.
In 2016, they’ll say we can’t believe we lost to such a corrupt blah-da-de-blah, and the answer will be the
same as it was then. You people aren’t in the real world where most Americans live.

Rand did pretty well!

Some of Trump's commanding popularity is starting to break up.
It will be interesting to see what happens in coming weeks.
Before all is said and done, I think Trump will find himself dropping
out with some Business related excuses.  

I don't think Paul did anything that would increase his poll standing or provide anything
of importance, and disagree he did well...not way I saw it.  I think Christie
had some better moments than Paul, as did Rubio.  I think it will be most interesting to
see where Fiorina ends up in newer polls. She definitely was the top in this debate.

As for the format of the debate, I personally think it was amateurish
and prevented good insight into important topics and views by the candidates.
Half of the debate was "...turn to  XXXX and tell them why...." BS way to conduct
this debate. Even questions were more about past and personal than about now and the future.
Tapper sucked as moderator and allowed too much confusing talking over each other.


JUST BECAUSE SISSY SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO...BUT HE THINKS IT DOES!!!!!  
JUST BECAUSE MC1 SAYS SO DOESN'T MAKE IT SO!!!!!

Big Winner: Carly Fiorina

Small Winners: Donald Trump, Chris Christie, Marco Rubio

Broke even: John Kasich

Small Losers: Ben Carson, Ted Cruz

Big Losers: Jeb Bush, Rand Paul, Scott Walker, Mike Huckabee

Fioria was the obvious winner in this round, with Trump coming in second.

Factchecking the Debate:

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said that Hillary Clinton was “under investigation by the FBI”
because she “destroyed government records.”
Not true. She had the authority to delete personal emails.

Trump said that “illegal immigration” cost “more than $200 billion a year.”
We couldn’t find any support for that. Actually, it could cost taxpayers $137 billion or more to deport
the 11 million immigrants in the country illegally, as Trump proposes.


Trump again wrongly said that Mexico doesn’t have a birthright citizenship policy like the United States.
It does.

Carly Fiorina said that the Planned Parenthood videos released by an anti-abortion group
showed “a fully formed fetus on the table, its heart beating, its legs kicking while someone
says we have to keep it alive to harvest its brain.”
But that scene isn’t in any of the videos.

PP TO CARLY:
YOU LIE!


In her letter to Fiorina, Planned Parenthood Action Fund executive vice president Dawn Laguens writes:

Quoted Text
"I am writing to tell you directly that your claims are completely false and that the video footage you
described simply does not exist. Literally, there is no such scene on any of the heavily edited, widely
discredited videos that have been released by anti-abortion extremists. Your statements last night,
while vivid and attention-getting, were completely untrue,"

Trump started the conversation.....he will not get elected and that was NOT his point....but the rest left will have to deal with the
REAL conversation....no holds barred


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

‘Kept us safe?’
Victims’ families slam Jeb Bush’s 9/11 claim



If you look at the pile of rubble under George Worst Bush's feet, you'll see he is standing on
the remains of some of the 3000 who were "Not Kept Safe" under Bush's presidency.

Kept Us Safe???

Bernie....that doesn't make sense,,,,no matter what a person still only gets back what they put in.....

you can't make it more expensive for someone else because that is NOT equal under the government....

the government likes to spend a lot of time differentiating between people as if it is the authority on rating human value....IT'S NOT!

it's just a system that people have access to and get services from(sometimes too invasive)....but it must be applied equally regardless
of some obscure 'equality' algorithm put together by the government....

the government has no right and should have no power to say one person 'deserves' more service than another....it is NOT god


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

it's funny how you cannot connect dots.....
