Roundup of the Russ Carnahan/Ed Martin Debate

Some of the interesting stuff that came out of the debates:

  • The St. Louis tea party was bragging about how rude they were at the first debate.

  • Ed Martin tried to act like there was something wrong with Carnahan pointing out that his wife owns over $100,000 in oil stock, even though Martin has personally attacked Carnahan's wife and late father in the past.

  • Hotflash at Show Me Progress had a great post about the obnoxious behavior of Martin and his tea party crowd at the 2nd debate.

  • FiredUp Missouri caught Martin in a lie about the new health care reform bill, with Martin claiming that 16,000 IRS agents are comintagetcha!

  • Martin also repeated for the 10 billionth time his lie about the health care reforms funding abortion.

  • Carnahan, meanwhile, gave a great answer on abortion.

  • Ed Martin came out against laws that protect dogs from cruelty, while Carnahan came out for the laws.

  • Martin defended tax cuts for the wealthiest 2 % of Americans, and Carnahan pointed out that that dumb idea would add $700 billion dollars to our deficit over 10 years.

  • And last but not least, Ed Martin claimed that ending discrimination in the military was "social engineering."
