Cheap Seat Report: Iowa Caucus Edition

An unexpected and icy cold front moved into New Hampshire overnight. Meteorologists had no explanation until they were informed that Hillary Clinton had arrived. With Bernie Sanders arrival bringing hot air and mixing with the cold front it is expected to create a very volatile mix. It's expected to last through February 9.

 With a close finish in Iowa, Hillary will have to step up her game and will likely start promising that her free stuff is even more free than Sanders free stuff.

 Hillary gave Iowans a farewell speech last night  while keeping an eye out for Feds coming her way with hand cuffs. The race had not been called yet as it was still too close to call. There was concern that if Clinton & Sanders tied, Martin O'Malley's voter would have to decide it. Clinton Voter Fraud was reported in one county. But, really,  she's always been so honest!????


 Martin O'Malley suspended his campaign and if Jim Gilmore quits his campaign they may  announce they will  become a folk singing duo. Jim Gilmore took  a terrible beating by "Other" in last results.  At one point, Gilmore had only two votes. Write in votes for Happy Gilmore were beating him by 6 votes.

Yesterday  the Trump team texted to reporters that "we've almost reached 50,000 Iowans." It would be 50,002 but they never  found those two Corinthians. In the end there were two things to be happy about: Cruz won and Trump didn't. You have to wonder if Donald Trump will remember this:

Most polls before the caucus showed Trump would win. Just goes to show it ain't over til it's over. Today, however, Donald Trump saw his shadow, so six more weeks of Trumpees screaming Iowa was rigged. Actually,  Trump saw his shadow and it looked liked Ted Cruz. And an added six more weeks of Twitter flames by Donald Trump.

TRUMP WANTS A REDO IN IOWA

Snark Retort: The Democrat Debate in Charleston, South Carolina

The Democrats had a a debate last Sunday night in Charleston, South Carolina. Just after the Whitehouse thanked South Carolina GOP Governor Nikki Haley for offering such a great State of the Union response. Also in the state where the Senator (Lindsey Graham) couldn't even poll in the top percentage in his own state in his failed presidential run. Also in the city where the tragic shooting occurred at the church where the NAACP decided to further the agenda of the shooter Dylan Rooff. Rooff wanted to start a race war. The NAACP started the ball rolling by declaring a war on flags and white southern culture. And, of course, the Democrats LOVE that kind of racist action. Anyway, without offering a pledge to America or a tune...the debate began:

Martin O'Malley says that the Democratic side of the aisle actually believes in science.
Math, however...not so much

 Hillary will be selling her husbands used cigars on E-Bay to fund her legal defense

 Hillary says a handful of economists endorsed her plans.
Isn't that special?? Undisclosed endorsements that dont mean anything.

 O'Malley slammed Clinton aboutt her "cozy relationship with Wall Street"... He's the only one up there with any real convictions. As few as that may be, anyway

 Democrats don't use the word "Constitution" very much..if at all. It seems to be anathema to them

 "The real issue is that congress is owned by big money" --Bernie, the congressman who did nothing about it as long as he has been in Congress.

 "Whenever anybody in this county is killed in police custody, it should automatically trigger" a DOJ investigation. -- Sanders
Shorter Sanders: Welcome to the United Police State of Sanders

 "90 people a day die from gun violence in our country." -Hillary
And about 90% from cities run by Democrats and ruled by gun control.

SATURDAY NIGHT LIES

Cheap Seat Report: Saturday Night Live from Iowa Democrat Debate

The Democrat response to last weeks Saturday Night Live will be the Democrat Debate this evening in Des Moines. The humorous scripted skits will be given in the form of debate answers from questions given by the mock journalists at CBS news. Bernie Sanders will double as the musical guest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_Z01US5tyg

 CBS News made some debate changes and are going to address more foreign policy issues in tonight's debate because of the attacks in Paris last night. The Bernie Sanders campaign is throwing a fit because it cuts down his time to talk about giving free stuff.

Question we won't hear:
To Hillary: WHY should YOU be treated differently than any other Criminal? Because you're a woman?

Boy: "Dad! There's an old man named Bernie walking around the neighborhood asking all of us to "Feel the Bern" and offering free candy. Should we all just run away?"
Dad: "Yes......Yes you should.....we all should!."

 Shorter Clinton: It's not our fight. The USA will not lead against ISIS. We'll just help anyone who does.
O'Malley says it IS America's fight.

 Sanders says the worlds biggest threat is Climate Change and climate change causes terrorism. ‪#‎Doh‬ No wonder he didnt want to talk about terrorism tonight.

Fact check: Clinton has never apologized for Iraq. She said it was a mistake, but never said “I’m sorry.

 I wasnt sure at first, but Bernie Sanders is saying "mooslim."

NOW, Hillary is wanting to know if other countries will stand with US in Syria. Five minutes in and she already changed her position.

 Hillary doesn't understand why terrorists act like terrorists.

 They're throwing around the words "muslim," "Islam," "jihadist," "radical Muslim" like they're interchangable, until the moderator points it out, then they back off. They may mean the same to some, but not to Democrats, yet they apply them as the same until someone points it out to them. Then its backpeddling time.

 Good grief. NOW Hillary wants to screen refugees for our safety.
Unless they're Mexican..then it must be OK

 Hillary is all over the board on her positions with foreign policy. Does she even listen to herself??? How can anyone for that matter.

Hillary is Ok if you have to pay $250 a month for prescriptions. That should make you sick.

The candidates suddenly got lively and animated because they are talking about free stuff

 Hillary needs to clarify whether she is speaking with her right-brain or left-brain before answering any questions

 When Democrats use the term "middle class" it's a red herring. It's never meant anything to them

 Bernie says no one can live off $12 an hour. But his web site says he pays his interns $12 an hour.

A Catfight between Hillary and Bernie could liven this up

 "Don't impugn my integrity" declared Hillary Clinton, the only one of the three candidates who may be facing indictment on federal charges,.

 Here comes the gun control segment...........................It's always amusing that they decry current issues because of the failure of political leadership......but none of them will say Obama or mention that he has been president for 7 years now,..

This love-hate thing between Bernie and Hillary is sickening. Get a room already.

 Moderators  need to ask Hillary  about her Marine record.

"What do you tell a young African-American looking for "hope"?
  Hillary's long list didn't mention why she as a white person can do what Obama as a black person couldn't do.

 "I don't think taxpayers should be paying to send Donald Trump's kids to college" --Hillary Clinton
Leave it to Hillary to make up an issue that is not an issue.

What I have learned so far from tonight's debate:
If you watch it really really close you actually can see paint dry.

 Hillary's line about not wanting anyone in Iowa administering her Health Care is another red herring. She wants the Federal Government to do it and always has.

 The moderator just started them on final statements. It's like sitting through a long dry 3 hour sermon and hearing the pastor say "And in conclusion.." Life starts to return

 We're not at war with Islam…we’re at war with violent extremism." —Hillary Clinton
But..............Extremists who happen to be Islamic.

 A Democrat Debate is a passionate Fact Checkers Dream Come true.

MEME REPORT:
NOT SO STUPID BEAGLE

The #DemocraticDebate the Way I saw it. #DemDebate

Liberal Debate Rule: The winner of tonight's debate will be the one who can promise the most free stuff to the most people. Sanders is the early favorite.

 There was  plenty  of time for Mitch McConnell to get into tonights debate with all the rest of the lefties.

Even before the debate began, CNN declared themselves the winner of the DNC Debate

 "At Dem Debate, Hillary will demonstrate her high level of intelligence by managing to remember, on every issue, the side she's currently on." --Mike Huckabee

A debate, or else there is a pant suit convention in town

 Chafee's claim to fame is "I have had no scandals." But isn't a scandal what qualifies a person to run for president as a Democrat?

Shouldn't Hillary be debating herself? The position she holds today against the one she held yesterday??

 "We're not going to separate you from your baby"- Bernie Sanders. Unless Planned Parenthood does it, then we will pay for it.

So far Sanders is winning for offering the most free stuff to more people

 Instead of blaming Obama, they went  all the way back to George Bush

 "Putin is not feeling too nervous or scared. ‪#‎DemDebate‬" --Donald Trump

 "I wish CNN could have squeezed more commercials into this." --said no one.

 Do black lives matter or do all lives matter? None of them say that all lives matter....Webb finally did but changed the subject real quick to black lives matter.

 If Hillary doesn't want anyone to know what she really thinks on an issue, she just says "It's up to the state."

 Sanders says Climate change is a "moral issue." It's right there in the Bible in that book between Genesis and Exodus.

 Hillary earlier in the debate said she can work with both parties but then toward the end said that she was most proud of making Republicans her enemy. She changed a position so quick lots of people missed it.

Chafee and Sanders plugged their web sites.

 My takeaway from the DNC debate:
Democrats don't have a problem with corruption and will protect each other if they are involved.
Expense for whatever they propose is irrelevant.
5 white people explained how integrated their party is.
Chafee is apparently a real person and is not made up. And he votes for stuff he never read and has personal excuses for it.
Republicans are the enemy.
All of them said the economy is bad, but none of them would blame Obama..but instead went all the way back to Bush
Climate Change is the most important issue Democrats face.
All gun violence is the NRA's fault.
Democrats are mostly clueless about foreign policy, but they have memorized some gratuitous soundbytes to make it sound like they know something.
Hillary wants to be the first woman president. Of course, if she was elected she would really have no choice, would she??
