Salon watches the second Republican debate so you don't have to.
  • The horror of reality tv

    It was interesting to see the crème de la crème of the Republican Party. It is encouraging to see that diversity has finally infiltrated its top levels, with much girlishness on display. The graphic I liked best was the one stating the combined IQ of the ten Republican candidates matches the combined IQ of the two leading Democratic candidates, though I don’t think this is to the Republican’s advantage.

    One historical note to keep in mind when watching these debates: Eight years ago I watched in dismay as one political hopeful’s outwardly sophomoric, ignorant, condescending, idiotic, smirking, donkey-laughing, and non-replies to questions propelled him to the Party’s candidacy.

    The gay bashing gayish Sean Hannity brought his flatulent weight to the affair, illuminating the grandeur that is the Republican culture.
