Party of Idiots

No, I didn't watch the Democrat debate. But I picked up some excerpts that make me wonder if the entire party isn't now dominated by weird, sick, and stupid people.

The candidates took a wide range of inane questions from people who posted them on YouTube. They mostly ducked the questions, I suppose. But as far as I can tell, there was a decided lack of serious and thoughtful questions. If anything, there seemed to be way too many setup questions that let the candidates pander to what seems to represent the base of the party.

The solution to the terror war, according to the candidates? Talk to the enemies. Negotiate with them. Do serious intelligent people really think this will work?

Stop Global Warming. That would be really funny if it weren't so sadly stupid.

Healthcare for Everyone! Where are the questions and explanations about how, exactly, will such a utopian vision be implemented?

Tax Rich People! Yeah, they deserve to be taxed and taxed and taxed again. Then again, who exactly are you calling "Rich"?

How about things people really care about - Illegal immigration, actual defense against terrorism, high gas prices? Hmm, it turns out Democrat presidential wannabes don't think those issues matter.

Republican candidates are worth little more than a yawn, but at least they make a little bit of sense now and then. But of course, they're just campaigning for the priviledge of losing to Hillary, at least if we are to believe the "experts" in the news media.
