Harris And Pence Debate Chatter

October 07, 2020 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I’m leaving this open for comments before, during, and after the debate.

I’m betting the egg money on Harris.

Afterwards:  Pence’s smarminess, mansplaining, condescension, and interruptions made it very clear why women are leaving the Republican Party in droves.

    Ms. Juanita Jean Herownself, you might want to wager Fabergé egg level coin on this one. The Vice Poodle already needs CPR.

  3. I lasted longer tonight than I did last week, but Pence is so oily and supercilious that I think I need another shower. What an effing creep!

    3
  4. Suck an egg, Pence. Make it a dozen. Not enough to stop those lies comin’ outta your face hole.

    4
  5. I had to turn it off. Kamala is missing chance after chance to rip Pence’s head off. He claimed the NY Times report on Trump’s taxes were false. Did she say “Then show us his tax returns”? No. He lied about the vaccine. She didn’t respond. He’s lying in a continuous stream and the moderator just changes the subject and moves on. Sheesh.

    My husband is getting upset with me yelling at Pence to SHUT THE F***UP when he runs over his time. I’ll read about it in the morning.

  7. That’s a good point about missing chances, but nevertheless she is making a lot of good points and she is sure looking better than Pence. He looks like that smarmy guy in Animal House that got knocked off his horse by a golf ball. All he needs is some kind of World War 1 military helmet.

    7
  8. I am not sure, however how much longer I can watch Pence breaking the rules.

    8
  9. Oh my God, he’s playing the China card again. Kamala has got to rip his head off about that. He knew. And he still talking over the moderator.

    9
  10. And I’m not sure how much longer I can watch Pence breaking the rules while the moderator says Please mr. Pence . I don’t want any more debates without a mute button. Ever.

    10
  11. I left the tv room for a moment to refill my drink. A moment later I heard my sainted wife’s voice yelling 4 or 5 of the words you can’t use on tv, at the tv.

    I guess we’ll change over to CBS and watch a video. Can see the lowlights on msm tomorrow.

  12. Marcia in CO says:

    Yup … I have had to mute Pence a few times already …
    The moderator is horrible!
    I think I’ll have to catch the after chat!
    Christ … now he’s trying to push that 9 month abortion shit … that’s called a live birth!
    Now we are having a history lesson!
    Pence looking smug … just who is packing the court? Isn’t that what Trump and Pence are doing?
    Pence is as disgusting as Trump …

    12
  13. Me too-/ I keep watching the Fleetwood Mac OceanSpray clips…there is goodness out there.

    Penis just compared George Floyd’s death to a white Ladies hair salon being burned.

    Forehead smack.
    No empathy.
    Lies.

    13
  14. Mike Pence is so full of it that he is drawing flies.

    14
  15. I had to turn it off, because I was getting so riled up I might not sleep tonight…

  16. Ralph Wiggam says:

    Did anyone else notice that Sen. Harris referred to “rich” people instead of the politically correct “wealthy” people.

    16
  17. OMG did you see THE FLY on Pence ‘s head??!!
    Also. Kamala killed it. I’m absolutely in love with her.
    Also vol.2. I personally think the moderator was quite OK.

    17
  18. Marcia in CO says:

    Thank God it’s over with … now the 3 ladies are rehashing it all!

    18
  19. Pence just showed why we need f**king trump to be the repugnantcan that people have to vote for or against.

    19
  20. No flies on Kamala…

    21
  21. I was trying to come up with the right word to describe Pence, and none of them seemed to click until now. Smarminess fits him to a tee.

    I managed to get through 45 minutes and after that just muted him the remainder of the debate. Of course, I turned the sound back on to listen to Kamala. I love her!

    22
  22. I like winners that don’t draw flies.

  23. larry from Colorado says:

    I turned it off after 16 minutes when Pence would not “obey” the rules and would just talk over the moderator because she’s woman and smarter than he is.
    I turned it back on about 40 minutes later, and he was the same way. Rules don’t apply to the Rs?

    24
  24. Micr for the win.

  25. thatotherjean says:

    The most interesting thing about that debate was the fly on Pence’s head. He couldn’t manage to keep to the rules any better–if not quite so loudly–than his boss. He respected neither his opponent nor the moderator, talking overtime and over both of them. He lies like his boss, too, if a whole lot more smoothly. Kamala wasn’t as confrontational as I wish she had been, but I doubt that it would have helped. I just hope Pence wasn’t as ill as he looked.

    26
  26. Micr @23,

    Flies know a rotting carcass when they smell one…

  27. Austinhatlady says:

    Micr at 23, that was excellent!

    28
  28. The fact that Pence did not feel The Fly tells you how much hair spray he had on. Which was A LOT.
    (I’m sorry I keep focusing on that fly. It was almost the most hilarious thing I have seen in my life. Then again, I was on my second glass of Sauvignon Blanc when The Fly appeared – that might explain why it felt so humorous.)

    29
  29. Micr@23
    You got that right.
    A fly always knows where the bullshit is.

  30. Bill in HOU says:

    Best line from KH … no I’m Kamala … no arrogance about title etc. just a really sharp intellect making her case

    31
  31. The Democratic Vice Presidential candidate generally followed the rules of the debate, and acted in a respectful manner toward her opponent. The moderator did her best.

    The Vice President mansplained over both of them. He wouldn’t yield his time. He treated his opponent and the moderator as inconvenient and inconsequential props that he had to share the stage with. I think the plexiglass was really some kind of time-space continuum divider, which kept the 1950’s at bay as the women struggled mightily from the year 2020.

    32
  32. The moderator was a joke:
    In future debate use a red, green ,yellow light systems like the supremes use.
    Use a timer to turn microphones on and off.
    Give the opponent extra time equal to the overrun on the clock.

    If a candidate can’t follow simple rules of etiquet he’s not ready for prime time.

    33
  33. Susan Page and Mike Pence have a history.

    Veep Debate Moderator Page Hosted Party Honoring Pence Protégé Vermal. Page paid for the party (about $4,000).

    https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/09/veep-debate-moderator-hosted-dinner-honoring-pence-protg.html

    Can’t expect her to reign in Pence.

    34
  34. Pence was an ass, yes, but managed to lose more women voters. We don’t like it when men don’t play by the rules and lie constantly. And don’t answer the questions. Kamala wasn’t given equal time to respond so I was happy when she insisted on continuing politely with a few answers at the end. She did miss a few opportunities but did well overall. Again no real time fact checking by moderator so I think KH strategy was to get out the Biden/Harris policies rather than rebut all the Pence lies, which would have taken all of the time. Notice how Doug E (KH husband) wore his mask on stage at the end while Mother (a real Karen) did not. Lots of fly jokes and at least three new fly related twitter accounts were created. Mr Fly assured us he would be tested for covid tomorrow.

    35
  35. Women as rePUKEian…
    Same as woman punching herself in face!

    36
  36. Lunargent says:

    Pence attracts flies because he’s dead inside.

    37
  37. “Smarmy” is exactly right! He really is a creep! He’s the kinda guy that if he sat near you, you would move seats!
    Kamala did okay. She missed a few opportunities but, whatever.
    Being creepy surely didn’t help the small prince’s case. His condescension did not sway any women voters, either

    38
  38. One thing I wish Kamala would have shoehorned into the discussion on Pres health was to extract a promise from the small prince to release the Mass Murderers Covid test history.

    39
  39. Wow! Get that fly an agent! This is all I am hearing this AM on the media! Wait! Was that an American fly or an illegal immigrant fly? Was it hired, trained and sent in explicitly by the Democrats to make Pence look worse than he already is as an asskisser to the Toddler in Chief? And does the fly have an ID? What’s its name? America wants to know!

    40
  40. Just as Biden couldn’t rip trump a new one, Harris couldn’t do so to Pence – not only “disrespectful” but acting line “an angry black woman” (sic/sick). She did fine, and the fly did better than Pence, too.

    Another good word for Pence – oleaginous.

    41
  41. I admit I was disappointed–I expected a pit bull vs. cocker spaniel type debate. Kamala did not choose to be that pit bull, though we know she can be. I expect her pad is full of the many opportunities she did not take to rip at Pence.

    However, I think her deliberately choosing not to be was the right choice. Like msb@39 said, this kept her looking professional and not disrespectful.

    I wonder if a male moderator would have seen better responses from Pence–observing the attempts to rein in.

    42
  42. Jane & PKM says:

    The fly landing on the Vice Poodle was a nice touch!

    Cartoonist Dave Fitzsimmons of all unlikely places the Arizona Daily Star has the run down in a picture for all of us who do not wish to inflict the Vice Poodle upon ourselves.

    https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4VWf0HvhRIk/X349N9oyFlI/AAAAAAACHMI/xmH_gvS86bw3QHjiF752DwVg0Kzizav9ACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h456/2%2Bdavid%2Bfitzsimmons.jpg

    We sort of watched, and less than half listened. We did with our mute button what the moderator should have been doing with the Vice Poodle’s mic.

    43
  43. Stephen Colbert: “Pence talked over all the women in the room.”

    44
  44. KH was fine. If she had been more confrontational and challenging she would have been labelled as “uppity” or worse.
    She can rip him a new one but it would have been seen as an out of control woman.
    Good to moderate her own strengths so as to keep voters from being critical. Women, especially women of color, have learned this and thus allowed the mansplaners to dig their own holes.

    Another thought: how long before the Repugnants blame the Dems for training that fly to draw attention away from Pence?

  45. Brad in Dallas says:

    I heard a good podcast episode about changing the US to a multiparty system, as a way to derail the toxicity and fight-to-the-death mentality of what we have now. The Ezra Klein Show

    46
  46. Rick from Colorado says:

    Watching the entire “debate” last night was painful. We saw how the Republican style of behavior has devolved politics in our country. Where bullying and rude behavior has become the substitute for knowledge and reasoned policy, lies are replacing facts. We saw a man (term used in a facetious way), continually interrupt, talk over and shout down both women on stage. This kind of behavior is what one might expect from a poorly raised 2nd grader, but not the potential leader of the United States.
    Leaving aside the lack of self control and absolute rectal orifice like behavior, do we really want someone that is this poorly prepared and so lacking in social graces to represent us for the next 4 years?

    47
  47. The fly’s name is Karma. And when flies land on something, they poop. Double Karma.

    48
  48. bearcreekbat says:

    I don’t mean to insult the fly, but perhaps the most logical explanation for Pence’s involvement with that poor fly is that Pence, himself, mistook the fly for Trump and allowed the fly to perch on his head unmolested because the oleaginous (thanks msb!) Pence was again trying to get his head up back his boss’ rear end?

    49
  49. Steve from Beaverton says:

    I didn’t watch much of the debate but did watch some highlights this morning. CBS had some good ones, especially his mumbling and squirming when not answering questions.
    Did he ever call for mommy dearest?
