No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

ABC Debates – Live Thread

by @ 17:14 on January 5, 2008. Filed under Politics - National.

Yark – CoverItLive died about 9:20. Time to do this the old-fashioned way…

9:22 – To Richardson – Pushing national service for college education.

9:22 – To Breck – It’s the corporates. Destroy them (and not the Islamists?) for the sheeple.

9:23 – P-p-please mandate a carbon tax. – To Richardson – It’s a stupid idea because it’s a mandate and it is passed onto the people. Cap and trade is also a mandate, but it’s good. We need light rail (bullshi*)

9:25 – To Obama – I like cap-and-trade and mandating sacrifices on the altar of Gorebal Warming.

9:26 – To Hiliary – We’re headed to a recession, so we need more welfare.

9:28 – We have 3 engines out, we’re leaking fuel…oops, wrong speech. We have a housing crisis, a job crisis, and a looming recession. Defend taking away the Bush tax cuts. To Hiliary – Rich is $250K.

9:32 – Sorry about that; the PHP error popped up again (have to track it down). To Obama – I like trickle-up.

9:34 – How do you improve the economy? To Richardson – Balance the budget, pay off the ChiCom debt, line-item veto (so far, so good), kill corporate welfare (starting to go off the rails), tax breaks for those that overpay (way off the rails).

9:34 – What would you take back? To Hiliary – Why me first? They’re not talking about recession, education, and I’ll leave the rest to the pundits.

To Richardson – I’d take back backing Wizard White because he wasn’t lieberal enough.

To Breck – I take back what I said about the Black Pantsuit jacket a few debates ago, you look mahvelous, Hill.

To Obama – We’re different than the people we eliminated and the the Pubbies (no shi*, Sherlock).

And we’re done.

Thanks for coming on out. Sorry about the outages, both on the CoverItLive and this place. I’m headed to bed; I don’t feel like listening to ‘Rats spin ‘Rats.


I haven’t yet decided whether to be nice or surly (you’ve got a few minutes yet to vote)…

Should I do a nice-blog or a surly-blog of tonight's ABC debates?

Up to 1 answer(s) was/were allowed

  • Just swear, Eggy. (80%, 8 Vote(s))
  • Be nice and don't swear. (20%, 2 Vote(s))

Total Voters: 10

…but whatever the decision, it will be below. If you’ve never watched a live-blog with CoverItLive’s software, it’s quite a bit nicer than just watching it on a blog. First, you don’t have to hit refresh. Second, you can participate (all comments on the CoverItLive portion are subject to my approval). Third, if I do decide to be nice, I can multicast this puppy. Going in, Mitt Romney took Wyoming with 8 delegates, Fred Thompson was second with 2, Duncan Hunter picked up his first delegate, and the 12th was still up in the air as of post time.

Revisions/extensions (5:29 pm 1/5/2008) – Hate to disappoint those of you who want me to show my AoSHQ colors, but this thing’s going multi-cast. I will, however, be making massive use of the <expletive deleted> tag. I will also be keeping an eye on the NFL.

Also, I almost forgot the ground rules; I paraphrase a lot, questions will be in italics, answers in plain text, and any personal comments in-line with questions or answers will be in parentheses.

Also live-blogging (list as of 5:13 pm):

William Smith at Conservative Blogger (also using CoverItLive)
Free Republic (yeah, it’s not a blog, but it’s also home for me)
Allahpundit at Hot Air
Justin Higgins at Right On The Right (exact thread)
Added 5:58 pm
Ace of Spades
Michelle Malkin
