I dont' know why it hasn't occurred to me that the two parties are primarily concerned with different aspects of policy.  For the most part, the Republicans are fixated on foreign policy and Iraq notwithstanding, the Democrats are focused on domestic policy.  This tends to be health care.

I'd prefer it was education.  I like to think that more educated people are cleaner (besides schizophrenics) and clenliness is next to healthiliness.

I don't know how the government is going to find balance and get stuff done when using pieces of one policy as leverage to get what they want done on the other side of things.  I need to read that book about Lincoln's cabinet or whatever.  I think another President did that but I don't remember who.

I really need to remember to start blogging more often, its fun.  I'm watching a replay of Saturday's Republican debate.  If I'd known that you could live-vote on facebook I damn well would have been there.

I have mixed feelings about Ron Paul, but I see why the Internet supports him, and I begrudgingly do... sort of.  In some ways, he is the troll of the Republican candidates.  He spouts off great Libertarian ideas and provokes a good reaction out of the others.  It was a major mistake for Fox News to leave him out of the debate.  I feel like Paul is speaking to the New Hampshire mindset though so he may do pretty well here.

Fred Thompson is kind of rambling and annoying.  He's clearly going to drop out soon enough, why not let Paul have that seat.  Wow he drifts and meanders really awfully.  His points dont' go anywhere most of the time, its scary.

I don't like Mitt Romney because of his magic underpants.  He does kind of deal with the jabs at him pretty well, that kind of look like thats the best you can do c'mon squenching his face up.  O'Reilly's body language expert would know what I mean.  Romney does a good job controlling the debate and getting himself time to speak, I have to give him that.

The other day I was drinking this health food drink because my throat is sore and I thought nutrients would be good for it.  I looked at it and thought gee this tastes good, but it looks like and has the consistency of pond scum.  Its got spirulina in it.  I looked that up on the wikipedia, yeah, it is pond scum.  Healthy stuff though, check it out.

I wish I would have seen the Democrat debate last night (and maybe there was one tonight since there was a second Republican one).

This debate is 10x better than the Iowa one.  The moderatrix was a bitch and limited them.  They are letting them get into some detail here.  Great back and forth too, letting the candidates mix it up.

Boarder fence shit is ridiculous.  Populations flow, embrace it.

Jesus god, Huckabee wants to build a boarder fence in 18 months, he compared it to building the Empire State Building in 14 months.  What kind of a comparison is that??

I'm sort of bored of typing even though this debate replay isn't quite over.  I need to try to post more often, writing is fun duh.
