Thoughts on Debate

Originally published at Twixel.net. You can comment here or there.

Well - I missed getting to watch the debate. I did hear about 10 minutes on the radio… enough to get a bit of a feel for the demeanor of the candidates… however I did read the transcripts of the debate.

My thoughts - Clinton is the winner. She said a lot in the time she was allotted per answer. Close second was Obama. His problem was that some of his answers weren’t as succinct as they needed to be - especially in competition with Clinton.
He sounded good but Hillary sounded better. Barack needs to take things up a notch. He needs to watch her performance in this debate and take a few lessons.
The other guys? Ho hum.

Poland doesn’t need more gays: leader :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: World
WARSAW, Poland — Poland’s conservative prime minister rejected European Union criticism Thursday of a proposal to fire teachers for ”homosexual propaganda,” saying it was not in the interest of society to have more gay people.

Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski said homosexuals did not face discrimination in his country, responding to an EU parliament vote to send a mission to Poland to investigate recent anti-gay comments by senior officials.

”Nobody is limiting gay rights in Poland,” Kaczynski told reporters hours after the vote.

”However, if we’re talking about not having homosexual propaganda in Polish schools, I fully agree with those who feel this way,” he said. ”Such propaganda should not be in schools; it definitely doesn’t serve youth well.”


Amazing. ~We’re part of the EU and we’ll obey EU laws but we’re not gonna obey EU law.~ Haha.

Essay arrest baffles experts :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Metro & Tri-State
Police Thursday released portions of an essay used to charge a Cary-Grove High School student with disorderly conduct, leaving several experts puzzled at an arrest based on such schoolwork.

Asked to write about whatever he wanted in a creative writing class, would-be Marine and honors student Allen Lee, 18, described a violent dream in which he shot people and then “had sex with the dead bodies.”

The over-reaction of the nanny-state has begun. ~I mean look!!!! He’s Asian!~ Geez people.
