I haven't watched any of it. Only sound bites and transcripts that I've been directed to on DU.

Watching it is akin to going to a Costa Rican mountain resort and feeding the monkeys. Don't feed the monkeys - or they'll swing from your porch.

Don't encourage them at all. And yes - I just called Mitt Romney a 'screeching' monkey and I know it's offensive to monkeys but I don't care.

but the above mentioned moments do stand out.

And yes, you are being pretty mean to the monkeys.
