It was Ø who took it too far and somehow equated spending more gov't money to hire more teachers with cutting crime. He stressed the teachers not the education, and that bit isn't true.

In my entirely unbiased (is that code? gonna need a ruling from the judge) opinion Romney crushed him like a bug.RGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09171113315326198836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555191244102972923.post-12007912894381484552012-10-16T20:16:23.210-07:002012-10-16T20:16:23.210-07:00But I did pop over to Twitter.

To think otherwise is to minimize his own importance and we mustn't have that.<br /><br />One of my favorite lines of the night was Romney repeating, "Government doesn't create jobs." Said it a couple of times.<br /><br />Romney's other BEST line, "We don't have to settle." YEAH, BABY!<br /><br />Damn straight.<br /><br />And I would say that government NEVER invests. It has no money of its own to invest. It only steals and then distributes the money for political reasons.Buttercuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10201235659652895050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555191244102972923.post-83255619185771502702012-10-16T19:48:49.868-07:002012-10-16T19:48:49.868-07:00I did a sort of minutes of the debate with a few c...I did a sort of minutes of the debate with a few comments of my own over at my blog. <br /><br />One of the last exchanges was a bit odd, where Ø was claiming that without gov't putting up the funds for research we won't have the next Apple. I don't recall Steve Jobs getting any fed money, and for that matter, the folks supplying the ISS didn't do that on fed money either.
