GOP presidential debate provides entertainment and clarity
I was understandably annoyed at having to watch the GOP debate tonight, as listening to those eight people, while at times chuckle worthy, really gets on my nerves.

Tonight was actually entertaining, and provided some better clarification as to the role of each of the candidates hoping to be the one chosen to run against President Obama.

2. And why did you "have to" watch?
Were you locked in a room at the local funny farm...um, I mean rethug headquarters? So was it annoying or was it entertaining and clarifying? A bit of a contradiction, no?

3. You're easily "entertained"

4. I don't have any brain cells to waste these days and listening to
or watching these know-nothing hypocrites bash the President and present no ideas of their own other than to avoid taxing the rich would have put too many of those I have at risk.

I don't find these people entertaining at all. I find it literally terrifying that any one of them (or Palin or Perry) could be taken seriously enough to be a viable candidate for the highest job in the land.

5. Keep your friends close, your enemies closer
I feel it is every bit as important to see what the GOP are saying and doing as I do the Dems. I don't take what the soundbites say as gospel. I follow Glenn Beck, Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter and Mark Levin, as they are the mouthpieces for the opposition.

If you wish to defeat your opponent, start by understanding them.

I guess you could say it is a personal choice, and it is not always entertaining, but I found the infighting and the posturing humorous.

Thanks for the feedback though.
