Lies Paul Ryan told last night

[Michchamp]

from an unabashed liberal website, which means you can dismiss them out-of-hand.

like the other "debate" the other night, these things apparently serve to indicate to voters who appears to be "presidential" not really whether either of them have any actual policies they can articulate, or in Romney's case even get the facts right. As long as they look the part though, and their bloviating fits your idea of what needs to be done, vote away, sheep.

I did not watch this debate either, I was at a dinner party last night.

It would not have swayed my personal view of Ryan... the guy is a d-bag through and through.

 

[Michchamp]

jesus h. christ, he even caused Biden to appeal to a god that does not exist as some sort of rhetorical device apparently...

It's simple... click on the yellow and gray icon on the toolbar - the one that looks like two mountains on a yellow sky - then paste the URL of the image in the text field. if you did it right, the image should appear in the text box of your message before you even post it. if you did it wrong, you fail the internets.

the Fox News spin seems to be that Biden's responses to the outright falsehoods Ryan was spewing were "unpresidential" and therefore the bigger sin here.

so... going out there and blathering about Medicare going bankrupt - even when that is completely false - is not a big deal. Hey, gotta find something to attack to win an election. but not playing along with this absurd "objective" demeanor you're supposed to take toward Paul Ryan? bad bad bad.

it's absurd that the mainstream media has pretty much been forced to pretend like Paul Ryan is not completely full of shit since he's the guy one of the two major political parties lined up for this, and if they were actually to call into question the veracity of his statements, they'd be demonstrating "liberal bias."

reminds me of Colbert's quip about the truth having a liberal bias...

Yeah, if you had watched, you probably wouldn't have enjoyed the "who's the better Catholic" part of the debate. I thought Biden was more aggressive with that one and had Ryan on his heels.

sounds like Ryan at least did a little better than Palin did. even if rarely (if ever?) addressed a direct question, at least he danced around the edges of it.

I remember the last VP debate in '08. palin was so goddamned stupid her staff didn't even try to coach her on responses, even though all this stuff is so dumbed-down they knew there would be limited handful of "issues" that would need to be addressed.

instead, she ignored whatever question was asked (since the media is "liberal" you don't even have to meet them halfway...), and just read some nonsense about energy policy, in keeping with the spin that since palin was governor of Alaska she was some sort of expert on supplying the nation's energy needs.

and of course... the media let that slide, since it wouldn't be "nice" or "fair" if the moderator had told her to answer the damn question.

I was watching Justin Verlander lead the Detroit Tigers on to the American League Championship Series.

What's the difference between what MichChamp did and this?

Oops...maybe that iurl has too many characters...let me find another...

There, that worked...

how does JV get his teeth so white?

we posed the same question to Paul Ryan. He told us they were "naturally that white" and when we confronted him with his dental bills for teeth whitenings, he started whining about the liberal media, then shouted "OMG What's that!?!?" and when we turned to look, he ran out of the room.

In the topic of white teeth: Biden recently signed an endorsement contract with Polident.

Don't see what you are describing on my MacBook.

I don't get that stuff on my PC either, so it's not that.

Yes. And my mind is on hold, apparently. Something's not getting through.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Biden looked like an idiot. I don't know who was lying or saying stupid shit but the guy was a complete moron.
