Nope! This ain’t a commentary on who won or lost the Vice President Nominee debate between Vice President/current
Democrat Party Vice President nominee Joe Biden and Republican Party Vice President nominee Congressman Paul Ryan. It IS a commentary on what we saw and the characters we saw. These comments are intended to be objective and NOT
partisan.
The debate moderator: That person was NOT a debate moderator. She conducted herself in such a manner as to be deemed to have at least some degree of bias in favor of the Democrat Party nominee and, or, some agenda. In the fewest number of words possible…..she was a pathetic excuse for a debate moderator. Simply BAD.
The Republican Party nominee, Congressman Paul Ryan: He conducted himself within the commonly accepted rules of debate. No “show biz” or “performance” in his presentation. He didn’t lose his cool when interrupted eighty two times in ninety minutes by his opponent and even several times by the so called moderator. He displayed, even while under constant attack, a command of facts. He maintained a level of perfect courtesy. He exhibited a wide knowledge range of government operations and programs. He took all the shots without firing back. We saw the real Paul Ryan. He apparently is “Mister Straight Arrow”.
The Democrat Party nominee, Vice President Joe Biden: The first thing that comes to mind when trying to define his performance is a down-home-ism………he is a plain old “smart ass”. He DID NOT debate. He disregarded and violated every rule of debate. He was belligerent, condescending, arrogant, discourteous, boorish, demeaning, dishonest, rude, and all the other descriptive words which are appropriate to his misconduct. The most disturbing thing is that this man is Vice President of The United States.
What we saw is the real Joe biden. Just ask all the people who he’s come in contact with during his nearly forty years in elected office. Every one of them, if they are willing to be honest, will tell you that what you, we, saw in the debate is the real Joe Biden. If you ask any of the people in Scranton, Pennsylvania who were acquainted with him during his young years while living there……you just might get the impression that he was already in a recognizable “smart ass”, arrogant, egocentric mode. He has a long history of self serving acts which indicate he’s willing to push the outside edge of the ethics envelope. He made a statement during the, pardon the expression, debate that he has, paraphrase, “spent his entire career fighting for the middle class”.
Yes, he has been involved in legislative activities, some of which are notably beneficial to some segments of the population. But…..BUT…….it’s abundantly clear that he has spent his entire career fighting for his career. And those notable legislative activities were only incidental to his fight for his career. We saw the real Joe Biden. A pathetic egomaniac who doesn’t give a damn about anyone or anything but himself and his personal aggrandizement.
What we saw was NOT a debate. What we saw was a glaring public exposure of the true, real, character of three people.
