The GOP Tribute To Debate Hate

The GOP Tribute To Debate Hate (VIDEO)

The audiences' reactions first gained notoriety thanks to a few catcallers who made themselves the story, booing gay soldiers and jeering at people without health insurance. But the fever has spread, and since then, the debates have become sessions that remind one of the fight scenes from the movie "Gladiator." They cheer executions, boo the Golden Rule and join in with lusty approval or passionate derision whenever the battle is joined between candidate and moderator, depending upon who is doing the attacking. Along the way, some candidates have been broken by the audience's reaction, some have weathered it and some -- most notably Newt Gingrich -- have harnessed it, conducted it, used it to inject new life into their campaigns.

Now, the bar for raucousness has been raised so high that we expect future primary-season debates on both sides to serve as a vehicle for the audience to channel their passions. But for now, with the help of HuffPost's Ben Craw, we present to you our orchestral tribute to the true breakout star of this debate season -- the unrestrained id of the GOP base.

It's the Gomer segment of our society. Has something to do with in-breeding, I think. (Too many knuckledraggers in one place...)

Like when lefty college students try to shout down anyone speaking on campus they don't agree with?
There is incivilty exhibited by both sides, and just because they are the loudest it doesn't mean they are the majority, example, the Paulistas. They are very prominent but even among Republican primary voters, they are in the single digits.

And in the case of the free speech stifling leftist college students... it has to do with no breeding.

Admitting that republicans are no smarter nor better behaved than unruly college students is a step in the right direction. I am pleased to see a few righties admit that the GOP base is lacking in civility. Of course liberals recognized that years ago.

I never admitted that. Ever see a video of a Tea Party Rally and a Occupy Camp... night and day sweetheart.

It's not always about you TLGOPT.

It is, however, very telling that you can't even post a denial without the snark......what is it about you that you have to try and demean any poster you don't agree with....and yes, "sweetheart", coming from the likes of you, is demeaning.

What's your problem? It was meant to be snark. And you can't even answer the question. Because you have no answer, so you latch on to the snark and make an issue out of that. At this end of the internet, it makes you look stupid and incapable of debating. So like a schoolchild, you whine about the my snideness. I do it on purpose and you take the bait every time. Just proves my point that Liberals love the nasty, love to argue ugly, not intelligent enough to deal with the real topic.

Thanks for playing.
