The only way to watch the debate

Hell no, I'm not watching that shitshow in Cleveland tonight, at least not on TV. I'm still in comedon mode after a fun, massive afternoon and evening in Milwaukee, and I gotta keep on the level before Great Taste Eve tomorrow night.

However, I am tracking it through Twitter, which is a much better alternative. Not only does it keep me from breaking my TV due to the urge to throw projectiles at how sick these people are and how far our politics have fallen, but if you follow the right people, Twitter is funnier and much more honest than the "legitimate" media. Case in point so far.

American Women: Given a choice between you and the fetus... Scott Walker picks the fetus. Prolife... just not pro-your-life. #GOPDebate

Incredibly risky move: John Kasich keeps presenting himself as humane and reasonable. Does he not know that this is a #GOPDebate?

Niether#RandPaul & #ChrisChristie will be President: but they would be dynamite together in a remake of #TheOddCouple. #GOPDebate

And Scotty had a nice "oops" on flip-flops regarding his position immigration, claiming he changed his mind after "listening to the people of America." Of course, he didn't say WHICH people.

Walker: listening to pplof America? 63% of Americans, 57% Republicans support path to citizenship. http://t.co/LCIw74XscH #GOPDebate

Seriously, this is the best way to "watch" these absurd events, and much better for my the health.
