Bush lll's quote about uniting people and being optimistic is that he was one of the main people attacking the other side, especially Clinton and Obama. Also, to Christie: how has Social Security been stolen from, and to Huckabee: who said anything about ripping children's body parts?

why didn't you tell the truth about social security. I'm pretty sure it was Raygun who started stealing from social security by putting the funds in the general revenue category. Funny Christie didn't mention that his party and "god" are responsible for this travesty.

Christiie: Stolen from by your party to fun an illegal war or two.

Paul: It's an international deal. Why do you think you will be voting on it?

Kasich: Do you mean the tsunami of prescription drugs?

Cruz: "Every illegal or unconstitutional executive action taken by Obama"...which leaves you with NONE.

Walker: Unlike WI.... and everywhere the GOP has touched.... ?

Trump: I think Americans have killed, stolen and gotten high these past few weeks more than any immigrants.

Carson: Because of illegal and failed wars Bush Jr. started.

Huckabee: Blastocysts and fetuses are not children. No one is ripping up children's body parts.

Rubio: Y'mean with guns? Because no "baby" has ever been aborted. See "Huckabee".

Bush: That we're all doomed? ....unless you vote GOP?

My husband wondered what would be headlines this morning at 10. I said 'Trump. Trump.Trump. Trump.Trump. Trump.Trump. TrumpTrumpTrumpTrumpTrumpTrumpTrumpTrump...

And Mike Hucksterbee slavering over children being ripped to pieces and body parts. Well, what a slip of the tongue. By shredding the social safety net, republicans like Huckabee are allowing millions of children to fall to their literal death. It has never been harder for parents to keep their families together, yet the republicans keep finding ways to grind us into the ground.

Somehow, I don't think we're in one of America's finest moments. And those in other advanced countries are probably shaking their heads in disgust (and fear?).

The repub party is completely un-American and unfit to lead.. Most like Huckabee are just trying to enrich themselves by running (look at all the speaker engagements he is getting now and all the huge fees he is charging). Rubio and Paul want their own shows and are following the Palin path. Not a single one of them is qualified to be president though Walker (Nixon incarnate) will be the nominee he won't win cause he lies about everything and is so deceitful and dishonest and Trump just threatened the moderator on national TV. "I don't care about being 'politically correct'...I just want to do what ever I feel like doing so shut up and do what I tell you or you'll get it".
That debate was a black eye to our democracy given by ignorant, self serving bullies. When will the people wake up and vote these people out of office...they are destroying our nation.

Listening to them debate, they will strip Americans of everything. This was the most radical and extreme debate I have heard yet. Republicans are out to reform America in every way they can. Maybe North Korea would be a better option if the GOP takes the White House.

"A barbarian is a human who is perceived to be uncivilized."

No, future generations will look back at "us" (i.e., a Tea Party Republican controlled America) and call us barbarians for the uncivilized not taking care of the living among us - for not providing universal health care, for ignoring climate change, for treating those of different races, genders, and sexual orientations cruelly and with vicious disdain (literally being uncivil to them). Forcing one more child to be born and raised potentially in abuse and poverty makes us barbarians, not preventing it. Asshole.

one of the best quotes I've EVER seen:

"Forcing one more child to be born and raised potentially in abuse and poverty makes us barbarians, not preventing it."

Kudos to you, DRMEOW, and here's hoping that quote can get some traction and somehow knock some sense into some heads.

if social security is broken and not any good then why does Wall Street want to get their hands on it? Why does Wall Street want to privatize it? You lying sack of crap the problem with you and all your croney buddies is the fact that social security is a damn good program for the people in this country. If anything is done, it should be to tweaked and made stronger for the generations to come.
Did you know that not only did social security lift our elderly in this country out of poverty but it also allowed widowed mothers to keep their children and to not have to give them up to an orphanage due to not having any money to support them with. I get so sick and tired of politicians and anybody else bad mouthing social security. Just think about how devastating it would have been back in the fall of 2008 when the financial industry took a dump and we were bleeding jobs all over the place what would the economy have done if there had not been a social security program. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure out what it would have looked. Oh hell it would have made the great depressions of the 1930's look like a walk in the park!!!!

There is a reason that we have $18 trillion in debt. Because as conservatives, as Republicans, we keep winning elections.


I couldn't agree with that more.

The GOP is built on a bedrock of lies. That's the only way you sociopaths can get into office (lie AND cheat)—and then do the dirty work for the 1%.
You piece human waste!
