Nothing was funnier in Saturday night’s GOP Presidential debate than the closing question about “If you weren’t at this debate, what would you be doing on this Saturday night?”
Rick Perry went first and said he’d be shootin’ his gun. Either at the range or on a walk with his dog. Nicely played, Rick. Know your audience.
Newt Gingrich went next with, “Watching the national-championship college basketball game,” which he then changed to “Football”. Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney, noticing the brilliant manly answer given by Gingrich, piled on and also agreed that they’d be watching that same Football National Championship game. Added Romney, “I love it!”. Though apparently not enough to know what day it was on. There’s nothing more manly than wanting to watch a football game that’s not even on.
Ron Paul said he’d be reading an economics book. Reading?? After those first two answers, “picketing an abortion clinic” couldn’t come to mind?
Jon Huntsman said something, but after already saying something in Chinese earlier, Republican voters have already pegged him as Kim Jong Il’s successor.
So, now that the championship game is over, do you think they even noticed it was on? Or perhaps they had staffers taking notes so that they could refer to it and make football jokes in their next speeches.
Good article, but I think the picture is in error — instead of face cards, I think it is full of Jokers!
I was surprised they didn’t mention googling who was making fun of them on humoroutcasts.
They tried to be folksy and they always fail. I am unsure if Newt and party are just arrogant as to think the American public don’t notice their mistakes or if they are just completely out of touch.
Nobody indicated they wanted to sit down and have a beer with Joe the Plumber?
