11:19pm<\/b>:
I am completely drunk.<\/p>\n
11:14pm<\/b>:
Closing statements:
Cory Booker is a very good speaker.<\/p>\n
Tom Streyer: A big bag of nothing.<\/p>\n
Tulsi Gabbard: Nice closing, but she got very little air time.<\/p>\n
Andrew Yang: Silicon Snake Oil.<\/p>\n
Amy Klobuchar: I don’t know why, but I just hate<\/b> her.<\/p>\n
Kamala Harria: She REALLY<\/b> needs a hook.<\/p>\n
Pete Buttigieg: Content free hope and change.<\/p>\n
Sanders: Talks up his history of opposing bigotry. He also touts his support from small donors.<\/p>\n
Warren: Calls out corruption of government. I hope that it means realistic change.<\/p>\n
Biden: Word salad with a reference to Barack Obama.<\/p>\n
11:00pm<\/b>:
Charlie has taken away my bottle. I am really REALLY<\/b> drunk.<\/p>\n
10:58 pm<\/b>:
Gabbard calls out Mayor Mayonnaise’s call for occupation of Mexico. Good. Drink.<\/p>\n
10:50pm<\/b>:
Tulsi Gabbard comes out for paper ballots counted manudlly, 2 snaps up. Drink.<\/p>\n
10:56pm<\/b>:
Mayor Mayonnaise is right to bring up Gerrymandering.<\/p>\n
10:53pm<\/b>:
Roe for Wade now comes up: the Elephant in the room.<\/p>\n
Warren dodges the question about John Bel Edwards support for anti-abortion legislation, but Bernie comes out unequivocally in favor of abortion rights.<\/p>\n
10:44pm<\/b>:
Biden says that he is now in favor of legalization of marijuana, major policy change.<\/p>\n
Still calling for health studies, but this is a major policy change.<\/p>\n
Also, I am completely f%$#ed up. Charlie is now acting as my spotter.<\/p>\n
10:40pm<\/i>:
Corey Booker: “I’ve had a lifetime of experience with black voters, I’ve been one since I’ve one since I was 18.”<\/p>\n
Also he goes after Biden on his antediluvian pot policies. Take a drink.<\/p>\n
10:36pm<\/b>:
Mayor Mayonnaise: Let me talk about what’s in my heart. Does not mention evicting poor people to make spaces available for wealthy developers. Take a drink.<\/p>\n
10:30pm<\/b>:
Yeah, I am seriously drunk now. Thank God for auto spell check.<\/p>\n
White Supremacist violence is brought up.<\/p>\n
I did not expect this, and it is a good question.<\/p>\n
The proper answer is, “I will go after white supremacists like Obama and Holder went after Occupy Wall Street.”<\/p>\n
10:27pm<\/b>:
Brian Williams talks up post debate analysis at MSNBC.<\/p>\n
F%$# that. I’m switching to the Daily Show<\/i>.<\/p>\n
Also, the ads for The Report<\/i> (CIA torture) and Queen and Slim<\/i> (Black Lives Matter) seem a savvy market move.<\/p>\n
10:26 pm<\/b>: 10:22 pm<\/b>: Also Sanders: “Me must treat the Palestinians with the they deserve.”<\/p>\n Good.<\/p>\n He also said, “Be clear.” Drink per Taibbi rules.<\/p>\n Also, I am a bit shicker now.<\/p>\n 10:16pm<\/b>: 10:14pm<\/b>: Stupidest question of the evening.<\/p>\n 10:12pm<\/b>: 10:09pm<\/b>: She then goes on with a full throated defense of American empire, and Joe Biden follows down the same path, and adds a dash of brinksmanship. Take shot.<\/p>\n 10:07pm<\/b>: The Biden bit surprises me.<\/p>\n Sanders calls big oil criminals. Oh, snap. Take a shot.<\/p>\n 10:01pm<\/b>: Took a shot to start. It’s 151 black rum. I felt it in my ears.<\/p>\n Have a bottle of water for a chaser.<\/p>\n 9:29pm<\/b>: 9:26pm<\/b>: Not surprised. Gabbard brought up Harris’ awful record as a prosecutor in prior debates, which has killed her campaign.<\/p>\n 9:19 pm<\/b>: 9:16 pm<\/b>: Warren had a good line, “I’m tired of freeloading billionaires.”<\/p>\n Booker is clearly not into taxing rich people.<\/p>\n 9:10pm<\/b>: Mostly, he danced around and brought back to impeachment.<\/p>\n 9:01pm<\/b>: Basically an easy question in the context of debates.<\/p>\n Sanders observes that the Senate can walk and chew gum at the same time, and continue to do their day job while conducting an impeachment.<\/p>\n Pete Buttigieg really is sentient mayonnaise.<\/p>\n 9:00pm<\/b>: I am not repeating the mistake that I made in September, when I went with 30 proof Buttershots, I am going with (cheap) rum, and using an actually shot glass, as opposed to a small glass, but I hope to get hammered before the debates are done.<\/p>\n Once again, I will be posting at the top, with each update having a time in HH:MM pm format.<\/p>\n
Mayor Mayonnaise refers to Trump using 17th<\/sup> technology like moats filled with alligators and walls. Drink.<\/p>\n
Sanders: “Saudi Arabia is not a reliable American ally.”<\/p>\n
My rather unscientific sense is that Sanders is getting an absolute minimum of time in the debates.<\/p>\n
Yang asked what his call to Putin would be if he was elected.<\/p>\n
Bernie asked about Afghanistan, and makes point that the endless wars we are promulgating need to be ended, “But unlike Trump, I will not do it by a tweet at 3 in the morning.” Nice slam, take drink.<\/p>\n
On the DPRK, Harris has a good line, “Donald Trump got punk’d.” Take a drink.<\/p>\n
Climate change, and Steyer, Biden, and Sanders are generally on the same page.<\/p>\n
I’m back, and I’ve cracked a bottle of rum.<\/p>\n
Off to pick up Charlie.<\/p>\n
Kamala Harris basically goes down the “Tulsi Gabbard is a tool of the enemy” path.<\/p>\n
Mayor Mayonnaise (Pete) is using Republican talking points on Medicaid for All.<\/p>\n
Warren and Booker are getting into it over a wealth tax.<\/p>\n
Joe Biden is asked about how he will full his (IMNSHO delusional) vision of of bipartisan action given that the Republicans are going after his kid.<\/p>\n
First question is about impeachment developments, and the Ambassador Sondland bombshell.<\/p>\n
At the introductions, and since I have to pick Charlie from the Metro, so I am currently not drinking.<\/p>\n
