Does it matter if Mitt Romney won the debate by cheating?

Here are the rules:
"No props, notes, charts, diagrams, or other writings or other tangible things may be brought into the debate by any candidate."
Now watch the video:

I expect no less from this highly dangerous sociopath. Do not underestimate him. He is a terminator-programmed robot. He delivered, to perfection, the emotional trigger words he was sent in to do (NLP). Policy/Facts/Reality come in a distant second place. TPTB are watching to see if he can hold this up and if Ryan can keep his cool around Biden. Otherwise they'll just put Obama back in. Needless to say, they are quite worried about both. I think Barry was passive for a reason. (double blind tests come to mind?) #1 - no big pushback, #2 - Veep silly zinger show, #3 See how the Mittster reacts to getting sliced up. #4 - unscripted cage match? Just MHO. Side note: see how public reacts to absence of strengthening 3rd party candidates pre and post election. Stay tuned.

Carla Howell has told him she caught him doing the same thing when she debated him for Governor. Except, even more blatantly.

Comment Rescue (?) and child-related gun violence in Delaware

In my post about the idiotic over-reaction to a New Jersey 10-year-old posing with his new squirrel rifle , Dana Garrett left me this response: One waits, apparently in vain, for you to post the annual rates of children who either shoot themselves or someone else with a gun. But then you Libertarians are notoriously ambivalent to and silent about data and facts and would rather talk abstract principles and fear monger (like the government will confiscate your guns). It doesn't require any degree of subtlety to see why you are data and fact adverse. The facts indicate we have a crisis with gun violence and accidents in the USA, and Libertarians offer nothing credible to address it. Lives, even the lives of children, get sacrificed to the fetishism of liberty. That's intellectual cowardice. OK, Dana, let's talk facts. According to the Children's Defense Fund , which is itself only querying the CDCP data base, fewer than 10 children/teens were killed per year in Delaw

With apologies to Hube: dopey WNJ comments of the week

(Well, Hube, at least I'm pulling out Facebook comments and not poaching on your preserve in the Letters.) You will all remember the case this week of the photo of the young man posing with the .22LR squirrel rifle that his Dad got him for his birthday with resulted in Family Services and the local police attempting to search his house.  The story itself is a travesty since neither the father nor the boy had done anything remotely illegal (and check out the picture for how careful the son is being not to have his finger inside the trigger guard when the photo was taken). But the incident is chiefly important for revealing in the Comments Section--within Delaware--the fact that many backers of "common sense gun laws" really do have the elimination of 2nd Amendment rights and eventual outright confiscation of all privately held firearms as their objective: Let's run that by again: Elliot Jacobson says, This instance is not a case of a father bonding with h

The Obligatory Libertarian Tax Day Post

The most disturbing factoid that I learned on Tax Day was that the average American must now spend a full twenty-four hours filling out tax forms. That's three work days. Or, think of it this way: if you had to put in two hours per night after dinner to finish your taxes, that's two weeks (with Sundays off). I saw a talking head economics professor on some Philly TV channel pontificating about how Americans procrastinate. He was laughing. The IRS guy they interviewed actually said, "Tick, tick, tick." You have to wonder if Governor Ruth Ann Minner and her cohorts put in twenty-four hours pondering whether or not to give Kraft Foods $708,000 of our State taxes while demanding that school districts return $8-10 million each?
