I have no problem with you mocking warmongers, but don't be ignorant and drag Ron Paul through the mud. He's one of the biggest, if not the biggest, opponents of our foreign policy. Plus he never mentioned Reagan once. :p

Dr. Z - thank you for watching it so that I don't have to. I think you hit all the salient points.

Brilliant post Doc. Good work my man.

Brilliant. If I didn't have audio of the commentator I would've sworn that every question was "Tell us why you're gay for Ronald Reagan, and how much you hate the Clintons".

Sorry to say though that Ron Paul would probably be the better choice over any of the top tier Democrats. In my opinion, all the candidates are in the same party anyway. Kucinich is the only real liberal running.

Anonymous: Uh, dude, have you even read about paleoconservative/libertarian Republican Ron Paul? He is all about big business, free trade, wants to get rid of social programs and medicare, hates the poor, and loves the rich. Beyond that I'm sure that he's woooonderful. Doesn't anybody even bother to read the press releases anymore?

Tengrain: Thank you, sir. I tried to be brief and irrational.

Monkerstein: Thanks! High praise indeed! I saw that you did a really great send up of the debate yourself. Readers should go check it out!

Manila Ryce: LOL! I think that you have done a better job of encapsulating the debate in one sentence than I did with my little photo-funny:

If I didn't have audio of the commentator I would've sworn that every question was "Tell us why you're gay for Ronald Reagan, and how much you hate the Clintons".

I am afraid that I couldn't disagree with you more about Ron Paul, though. Everybody thinks that he is a great guy because he voted against the war and the Patriot Act. You should read the fine print before signing that contract. And top-tier Democrats?

***Pelosi in '07, Baby!***

That was brilliant. I need to get an ape on my staff.

It kind of makes sense, you know:

Reagan: A Dead President for a Dead Party!

LOL! I fear that thay might only be sleeping. We should not underestimate the dark forces of the universe. I think we should walk softly, and carry a big stick.

@Zaius
Believe me, I'm no fan of Paul. Just saying that there's not much difference between his Eat the Poor agenda and a Democratic Eat the Poor agenda. I don't think he's a great guy, but compared to Hillary he's the slightly lesser of two evils. He'd focus more on screwing over people in the states than in Iran. Maybe then people would care. Still, my man is Kucinich. He's the only real liberal in my opinion.

Even compared to Hilary, (whom I don't like - but don't hate) I would still say no to Ron Paul. Kucinich? No no - Pelosi, all the way!

Pelosi only if she has Kucinich's wife as vice president. They could solve the world's problems by making out on TV everyday.

Manila Ryce: LOL! I think that is the most rational thing I have heard all week!
