i wasn't able to watch last night's debate

I tried to watch, and wasn't able to. I hated how no one could answer any question. The worst was the driver license issue. Where they all said they had to have comprehensive immigration reform in order to be for licenses for undocumented workers. Even after Wolf put his foot down, and said this is a yes or no question.

These candidates have to address every item they can in their responses, instead of actually answering the questions. There's no flow to the debate. The questioner and the candidate are talking at each other, not with each other. Something has to be done about these caricatures of real debates.

Gentle reader,

I do not spend all my time wiping noses or fixing boo boo's although at times I feel like that's all I do. I really am quite the one to study and read but it seems that I don't get nearly as much time as I would like. Marti sometimes gets mad and I get frustrated because I focus in on certain things and leave other to go by the wayside. For example I could do a 1 hour special on the laughable state of American politics. I watched some of the democratic debates this morning about 4 a.m. and What I heard was what everyone would do if elected. I thought out loud to Marti. Most of these people are in congress and they blame President Bush for all the problems in Government. But some of these said "I've been in Congress for (fill in the blank) and when I am elected President I will (fill in the blank) Hey! you have been in Government and haven't done much in (fill in the blank) years. Why not just admit you are incapable of actually doing anything and let some one else try. I'll bet that if you lived where we live and have to try to do what we do. You would soon change your understanding... can you spell treason, Senator or congressman? America is forgiving but I believe that I can speak for many when we say "you have sold out your country and it is only by grace that you haven't been sent home. Get it right or in your next life you'll come back as a cockroach and you know what happens to cockroaches.... that's my rant....
