Gubernatorial Debate

#1

Post by anygunanywhere »

Last night Mrs Anygun and I started watching the Rio Grande debate.

I only made it to the fourth question and could stand it no longer and changed the channel.

The first four questions were worded for Davis' benefit. The panel consisted of three news anchors. What could be more fair and balanced?

All Abortion Barbie could do was personally attack AG Abbott and pander to the progressives.

I did a search on the perceived results and it appears to be mixed.

The November election is very important. Davis must be sent packing. Every vote counts.

We heard about 10 minutes of it as we were driving to an event at church. My wife, who is at least as conservative as myself but doesn't pay much attention to events, had never heard Davis's voice before. Her comment? "My God....THAT'S what she sounds like? That woman will never get elected. It's too painful to listen to her talk."

I married well. :smilelol5:

I hope she turns off a lot of progressives with her constant attacks.

I saw the first attack ad against her and it's interesting. It makes statements about her law firm benefiting from her votes as a Senator and this is not a new allegation. What was new to me was a claim that she is the subject of an ongoing FBI investigation. All of these statements were attributed to specific newspapers, including at least one from San Antonio.

Well, I now know why they call them goobers, or should I call her a gooberette?
If the 2nd admendment only applies to muskets and muzzle-loaders, then the 1st admentment must apply only to the spoken or printed word. Printing must be done on hand presses, news stories must be written in longhand, no keyboards or electric processes may be used.

One thing my wife pointed out during one of her many attack ads, this one twisting AG Abbott's educational policies, shows her reading to a circle of elementary aged students. The book is open to a page that shows a black male playing pool while the opposing illustration shows a black male playing on a honky-tonk piano and smoking. Yup, that's good material for the kids. Makes you wonder what she is implying.

My wife and I registered to vote for the first time. I was in the US since 1999 and she followed in in 2001. But finally it is here, time to vote.

And unlike the majority of Americans, you will actually vote. Thank you for that.
