All right! I may be cheating. But I'm desperate enough to reach all the way back to March.
Fired attorneys, left to right, Carol Lam, former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of California; David Iglesias, former U.S. Attorney for the District of New Mexico, Daniel Bogden, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Nevada; Paul Carlton, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona, H.E. "Bud" Cummins, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Arkansas, and John McKay, former U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington, as they were all sworn in before testifying to the U.S. House Judiciary Committee on Capitol Hill last March.I have zero respect for Republicans. I caught a moment from their last so-called 'debate' on C-Span the other night. I think they had a rule that there would be no questions on the two I's, Iraq and immigration.
Tancredo asked some other candidate a question about immigration and was shouted down by a chorus of multiple voices.
No! No!
Not fair!
You can't ask that!
Any answer will be disallowed!
Pertaining to the other I-word, Moira Whelan of Democracy Arsenal compiled the table below, comparing the last two Iowa debates as far as their coverage of the subject 36% of Americans consider the most important- Iraq:
I hear a lot of the spinelessness of Congressional Democrats these days. But the spinelessness of this crop of Republican presidential candidates - with one notable exception, apparently not debating - is without parallel. This collection ranges from twits to twerps, not one of which is worth warm spit in a cold bucket.
vigilante, By now you probably realize it, but the bizarre rule of no discussion of either Iraq or Immigration WAS NOT set by the Republicans, but by the host of the event, Iowa Public Television and the completely out of control moderator.
ReplyDeleteThe EXACT SAME RULES were set for the Democrat Presidential Debate the next night.
Virtually every journalist and every pundiy agress that these were the worst two debates of the primary season.
Even if that were the case, FKAP, the chart above shows which group of candidates are the authority addicts, and which group think and act on their own.
