Debate This

I tried to watch the Republican debates tonight. I really did. But I'm going to a conference tomorrow to say wise things about sodomy in the 16th century, and I haven't packed. And anyway, it was all 9/11 blah blah, abortion blah blah. McCain is stiff, Giuliani is inarticulate and shifty, Romney is a phony, Tancredo is certifiable. And all of them seem to be very, very worried about Hillary Clinton, which makes me very worried in general. But mostly, I sat there and thought that Matt Taibbi of Rolling Stone was investigating one of the universe's great existential questions when he demanded, "Why does Chris Matthews always look like he just had a giant cock in his mouth?"

So true. So true.
