If you’re like me, and a brief attempt to watch last night’s Democratic debate was thwarted in less than thirty minutes due to the relentless and unwatchable heaping pile of bullshit that it was, never fear. ReasonTV has complied the debate’s three best and worst moments.

Take a watch:

One of the most offensive lies told by Clinton seen in the video clip above relates to Edward Snowden. As Dan Froomkin at the Intercept notes:

Clinton’s comments on Snowden were flawed in more than one way. She also insisted, incorrectly, that he could have accomplished his goals by going through normal channels.

“He could have been a whistleblower. He could have gotten all of the protections of being a whistleblower. He could have raised all the issues that he has raised. And I think there would have been a positive response to that,” she said.

But Snowden, as a contractor, was not covered by whistleblower protections. He did try going through established channels, but he said his concerns fell on deaf ears. And the response to his leaks has made abundantly clear that no one in his chain of command was the least bit interested in going public with the information.

She is a master deceiver.

DEMOCRAT DEBATE SUMMARY – FREE DEBT FOR EVERYONE!!!!

I flipped on the Democrat debate last night at 9:00, knowing the first 30 minutes would be bullshit. The next hour was just more bullshit. Five democrats promising free shit to everyone who will vote for them, with absolutely no discussion of the fiscal unsustainability of this empire of debt. Their solution is to pile on more debt. I eventually turned the charade off at about 10:00, as my gag reflex kicked in. Hillary was as dynamic as Jeb Bush and incapable of articulating one accomplishment in her entire life.

These corrupt political hacks, captured by their various wealthy donors, whether they be billionaires like Soros, Wall Street banks, government unions, or the environmental nazis, promised free shit for everyone. Free college education, free healthcare, free maternity leave, a $15 minimum wage, and government enforced wage equalization for women. Not a peep on how this “free” shit would be paid for. None of these faux leaders has any idea that a financial crisis far worse than 2008 is just around the corner.

Sanders wants to turn our country into Denmark and Sweden. He said so. The last time I checked these countries were forced into paying negative interest rates to their citizens in order to keep their demented social system functioning. They are being overrun by Muslim hordes and they have populations of under-motivated slackers, because working harder doesn’t pay off. Sounds like a perfect solution for America. Sanders received huge applause from Jesse Jackson and the other low IQ autobots in the audience.

Sanders clearly won the debate, if you are a believer in the Democratic tripe that passes for policy among these delusional debt mongers. He isn’t crazy. He even articulates some of the major problems well. His solutions are just plain wrong. More government doesn’t fix problems created by too much government. More debt doesn’t fix problems created by too much debt. More welfare doesn’t fix problems created by giving away too much free shit.

The guy who elevated his stature, in my opinion, was Jim Webb. He’s a serious dude, with a solid background of doing real stuff in the real world. He fought for his country and he is a solid supporter of the 2nd Amendment, as opposed to the other pansies on that stage. He doesn’t stand a chance with the left wing liberals who dominate the Democratic party.

I’m afraid the millions of math challenged millennials who have been indoctrinated into the socialist mindset by our government school system are going to flock to Sanders. The free college and other free goodies promised by uncle Bernie are just too good to pass up. Who cares how it is paid for. Just tax the rich, who happen to be the 120 million full-time workers in this country. Sounds awesome. None of the people on that stage have any idea how bad this depression is about to get, and their solutions would make it worse.

We could have a general election between a rabid socialist and reality TV star. I guess it is what this degraded carcass of a nation deserves. This is the best we’ve got? These are our Grey Champions? We’ve come a long way baby.

H.L. Mencken had it right many decades ago:

“Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want and deserve to get it good and hard.”

“As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.”
