Here Ya Go
Fox News said Tuesday that Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Mike Huckabee, Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Chris Christie and John Kasich will all appear on the dais Thursday for the first prime-time debate of the primary season.
The seven other major declared candidates — Rick Perry, Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal, Carly Fiorina, Lindsey Graham, George Pataki, and Jim Gilmore — will appear at a debate earlier Thursday evening.
The debate at the children’s table will probably involve food fights and drooling, but not any more than the big debate panel.
What? No women at the big table? No gay men? The Republicans should discriminate against the girls and the gays.
1I can’t wait until the Friday morning summary of what food was thrown at whom. Since Faux is running the show, I will not watch it. Fact is, even if Rachel and her Republican bosses on MSNBC decide to broadcast the feed, I’ll read a book or something. There is just so much BS one can abide in one sitting, and ten Republicans bloviating for two hours is more that I could possibly stand. If you feel compelled to watch it live in real time, I feel your pain.
2I gotta watch it. I have my GOP Talking Points Bingo card ready to go, plus a small cache of adult beverages and a pile of friends ready for hilarity to ensue! I hope Rachel and the gang will televise it. Their follow up should be part of the fun!
3Luckily, our embarrassment has been cut 50%. Too bad both our idiots weren’t kicked down to the kids’ table.
4Jon Stewart please, I beg you, please come out of retirement for one more show. Make it a reunion; bring Stephen Colbert and John Oliver with you. TIA
5Oh, Glen. Seriously?
6Repeat after me: old white men… old white men… old white men… OWMmmm…. OWMmmmmm…..
JAKvirginia, are you calling Carson white??? He is a pathetic excuse for a black man, but I bet he would admit it.
7Er JAK, don’t forget poor Dr Tom Carson!
8Much as Lindsay Graham isn’t precisely my cup of tea, everyonce in a while, something good comes out of his mouth. I like how he termed the 5pm debate as the “Happy Hour” debate, and predicted that by 7pm, even Donald Trump would sound pretty good to the audience. Get that man out of Congress and into the improv comedy biz!
9now we know the official number that it takes to make a circus.
10Sister Artemis!!!!! Points and winner of the pre-debate debate and the inner-tubes!
Aggieland Liz … shhhhhhhhh … Uncle Ben hasn’t been given “the talk” yet. He was too busy pulling up the ladder behind him to listen to his mother. He’s still auditioning for a role on the Uncle Ruckus team with Fox Not the news.
11Did any one. other than me, watch Dr Ben Case….er Carson show off his surgical skills on video?

His lack of operating room protocol is appalling and there is no debating that.
12OOPS! Right. Carson. The token black guy. Sorry. My bad. I’ll remember when he’s in the second debate. (snicker/snort)
13e platypus onion, just a guess, but if Uncle Ben still had surgical skills, he’d have remained a practicing surgeon.
But …. oh … comma … wow … he’s grifting as a politician. Guess the nearest street corner for air starting winos was already occupied.
Note to Dr. Carson: Dude, you may have a podium at the the Thursday night throw down at the ho down, but until Chuckie Poo and Davy invite you to your knees, you have not arrived.
14Why did Fox wait until after the final Daily Show is taped?
15Does anyone get the feeling that the 2016 is being turned into a reality TV show a la Trump? It would almost be comical if it was not so frightening. People need to stop, look and listen before they automatically push the R button–hope the voters start paying attention to what they are voting for.
16Since FOX claims to be “fair and balanced,” when will they be scheduling their Dem debate?
17And if all are put in a room with a cockroach, the total IQ will drop.
18Veni,vidi,vomito! Yer French lesson for today,not.

“The Newsroom” was my all time favorite tv show.
This is the episode in which they “mock debate” the GOP debate… which is a mockery OF debate.
Worth another look.
20I gotta record both of these “debates.” The stupidity will be something for the ages.
21I want someone to ask Donald Trump to name the seven deadly sins. He probably can’t answer that, but if he could, it would certainly be amusing to watch.
22As for naming the Seven Dwarves, we’ll have an embarrassment of riches to choose from.
23Miemaw, I agree on that fine show, Newsroom. It really takes aim on Republican hypocrisy. Wish it could go on as long as The West Wing did. Aaron Sorkin sure can write great show.
24One way to pare down this crowd: Arrange all of them in a circle and provide them with loaded sidearms so they can exercise their Second Amendment “freedoms.”
