Some thoughts on the GOP debate

It may be that no one cares what I think, but hey.
The best moment so far has been McCain answering Romney who has been calling him a liberal; he had such a strained grimace on his face that it looked as though his teeth might break. He also picked up his pen and twirled it ominously in his hand. I am fully confident that at least some part of his brain was thinking “I am trained. I could kill Romney with this pen. Right now. It would be easy. So easy.”
On a more serious note, it irks me to say anything nice about Ron Paul, but he is the only one who understands the inherent contradiction in Reaganism (although he wouldn’t put it that way), which is that big military is big government. You can’t be against big government and still have a huge military. It doesn’t work.
