Given how tired I was, and the absence of the slightest possibility that anything worthwhile could be sais, I took the only sane approach to dealing with last night’s Republican Clown Car Destruction Derby.  I never even turned it on.  Fortunately, others did, and they are sharing some of the lowlights.  <\/font><\/p>\n

\"ChristiePig\"Thursday night Fox Business hosted another GOP debate where they teed up softballs and acted as though what was good for the stock market and the Fortune 500 was automatically good for the average American. Indeed, it's no surprise long-time Wall Street hack and debate moderator Maria Bartiromo would play right into the Republicans wheelhouse of low taxes and trickle-down ideas, but despite this friendly environment the Republican candidates still managed unleash to some serious whoppers.<\/p>\n

Here were the most naked and shameless:…<\/p>\n

…Christie doubles down on his claim that he did not support Planned Parenthood<\/strong><\/p>\n

But he did. There is a 1994 article<\/a> where he claimed he "I support Planned Parenthood privately with my personal contribution and that should be the goal of any such agency, to find private donations. It's also no secret that I am pro-choice (..). But you have to examine all the agencies needing county donations and prioritize them. I would consider all groups looking for funding, but there is a limit and we have to pick and choose." Christie has been insisting he pledged no such support but the article is quite clear: either he was misquoted or is now lying…<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

If I had to guess, I’d say PIGnocchio was lying on both occasions.  It’s most likely that he falsely claimed to support Planned Parenthood, because he needed Democratic votes, and now he’s lying, because the Republican Reich objects to the claim.  As far as this Presidential campaign is concerned,PIGnocchio’s fat is in the fire.<\/font><\/p>\n
