LadySkinsFan Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I agree with parts of what he said with two exceptions1) He says we have to build up our SF type troops (Not really, we just need to adapt the infantry mission a little) to handle Asymmetric conflicts, then criticizes the president for deploying troops to do just that in Africa. Typical double talk. 2) Its an interesting debate to say that we have seen the last heavy armor battle, however, do you really want to be on the side that doesn't have any? Not a gamble I would want to make as MBT's are not made overnight, nor are troops trained in Armored warfare in a couple months. Fact of the matter is we need to maintain enough of a Heavy forces to take on anyone else in the world, because we do not know what the future holds. As future foreign militaries scale down on their heavy forces, so can we, but we need to maintain enough of a force to handle any potential conflict. We. Cannot. Police. The. World. We will go bankrupt, just like the Soviet Union. Do we not learn from others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistertim Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Romney just admitted he is a zombie. He wants brains. I KNEW it. Haha. The people there aren't even sure if they're supposed to applaud when Romney talks. "Did he actually say anything?" "I dunno" "Should we clap?" "Yes, I suppose so."

I worked at a company where the top guy (eventually) was somebody named Peter....which I found amusing because the more he was awful....the more he was moved up....eventually replacing the retiring CEO.

LadySkinsFan Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Gingrich keeps talking about opening up oil fields...someone may want to check to see if he's getting some kickbacks there.... Probably one of his "foundations" owns some stock in one of the Marcellus Shale drilling companies. Lots of natural gas ads lately. Bogus of course in the environmentally friendly claims.

LadySkinsFan Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The twitters is telling me that a lot of Foxnews viewers are confused because there aren't any ads telling them how to get cash for their gold.Oh, and Perry was sweating like Richard Nixon for awhile there. ---------- Post added November-22nd-2011 at 09:25 PM ---------- The key to a good debate is a diverse audience.

88Comrade2000 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Can't wait for replay, just got back from dinner. I guess Newt just ended his campaign with his immigration comments. I guess they will have to go back to Bachmann. Even though I haven't seen the debate yet, my guess Obama won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I thought Newt did pretty good overall. I was impressed with his stance on immigration. LMAO @ the Cain replay. Romney did good, but I still have a hard time liking him. Paul was himself, some good points taken too far. I thought Hunstman had maybe his best debate, but I don't know that it will help him or make much difference overall. I didn't really like him transitioning from talking about the Persian Spring which was a good point, to suddenly talking about Israel. I still wonder if he is really running as Obama's vp. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I like the drinks that glow in black light. Just sayin' I think I still have a black light somewhere...stashed with the Tiger, Two Lovers, Hendrix, Yellow Submarine, and that one blonde's Celestial Unicorn, posters. Well, I pick Sanitorium as the last place finisher and the win was a tie between Paul & Newt (scary enough? :evilg: ) Others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistertim Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Romney was Romney...talking enough to seem like he was taking a stance without actually taking a clearly defined stance and then immediately shifting the answer to say it is all Obama's fault. As far as Jumbo's question: I would put Cain and Santorum as neck and neck for last place, though the nod might go to Cain for the sheer vapidity of his "answers". Agree with Paul and Newt being the winners, even though I disagree with a lot of their specific views. Paul talks straight and says what he means, even if he beats a certain point to the ground and goes a bit far and Newt at least has the intellect to discuss his ideas cogently and with context. Perry, Huntsman, Bachmann were all "meh" (though Bachmann did bring the crazy a couple times which gives her a bump). And as I said above, Romney is just Romney. Not much there but a suit and hair.

twa Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I would give the win to Newt,with the rest aside from Paul bunched up(Paul and I will never see eye to eye on national security) I'll agree with the earlier poster that Huntsman had his best debate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Wow. Ari Fliesher coming out against racial profiling. I really wish someone had asked Cain about muslims after the debate.
