Republican Debate

So today my teacher said she was going to go to the debate for the Rebpublican House (District 5) seat, so i thought i would attend in order to be an informed citizen.(i'm not really in that district but hey, i can inform my friends right?) Ok, i just wanted to hear him debate because he spoke at my school. Yeah.
Anyways, this is what i got out of it. It's mostly notes i took on their diologe but please enjoy it if you desire =)

Debate:
James corrected the first guy when he talked about special interest groups. They guy said he didn't take money from them and they proceeded to list off some groups that had donated money to his campaign. James was very kind about it though.
The second guy up there was kind of rude when he corrected the first guy.
Bills should be made one topic. No earmarks. James- "If it's sucha  great bill make it stand on its own.
Terrorists should be tried in military courts for war crimes.
The government should stay out of "creating jobs".
The second guy-people are afraid to hire people because of what the government is doing.
Government stimulus is like taking a bunch of credit cards and maxing them out.

Questions:
Brevity is a virtue. =)
Simple, flax taxes. No tax benifits for special interest groups.
Education is not the Federal, State, or any government's job.

The second guy- shrink government.
The constitution is not whatever you want it to be. Other countries change their constitution every few years which never works.
Illegal immigrants should not be put before legal immigrants. Employment has turned into slavery. The public school has gaudianship agreements incase some kid's parents are deported.
James- my twelve year old was listening to the news when they were talking about healthcare and she asked 'Who's going to pay for that?' So let me get this straight, a twelve year old can understand debt but not the federal government. sigh.
Cut back the UN.
Highschool graduates don't even know the Preamble. Really? I learned that in Kindegarten...
Healthcare- have you been to France or Canada? or for that matter, Massachusets!


Good job guys!!!
