@SamuelCookIII Where is MittRomney’s American flag lapel pin? Why doesn’t he love America? Oh, wait. He’s white.
@AverageBro Slamming the working poor for not paying enough taxes is great. Asking the rich to pay more taxes is blasphemy. Makes sense to me.
@BorowitzReport For in-depth coverage of the debate, check out the Book of Revelation.
@JohnFugelsang It was a cool debate, except for all the racial tension in the audience.
@jduguay1987 Rick Santorum slips out of the closet, shows love for musicals and Judy Garland. Compares Reagan to Wicked Witch of the West.
@apbblue GOP: LET KIDS STARVE. FRY CRIMINALS. PRAISE JESUS.
@PolitiFact We checked Rick Perry statement that more & more scientists are questioning climate change. False.
@SingLifeSong As George Bernard Shaw put it, “The problem with political jokes is that they get elected.” Fun night.
@rugcernie You know there’s something wrong with a crowd when they applaud executions, even if they’re pro capital punishment.
@rangrol Paul says he opposes SNAP and other food programs for children, but insists he is a compassionate person. F*ck you, dude.
@markm1962 GOP now running against Obama and every sane American.
@speechboy71 Perry probably helped himself among Republicans . . . which is precisely why the big winner tonight is Barack Obama
