Five little noted doozies from last night's Democratic debate

By Monica Showalter

Before I drifted off out of boredom, I caught the first part of Democratic debate seven, on foreign policy, health care, identity politics, and other topics, and oh, what a revelation about these last six characters from the clown car still standing.  These are the people who would occupy the White House, and you wouldn't want to be there if it happened.

Five things stick out as doozies of contradictions, hypocrisy, and full-blown whoppers:

5. The Warren-Sanders "woman as president" wrangle. Before the debate, Elizabeth Warren made waves by claiming that Bernie Sanders told her a woman couldn't win the presidency.  On the surface, it's hard to believe, given that Bernie has been around the block and remembers Margaret Thatcher only too well.  But more to the point, Warren is fond of bringing up 1970s-style feminist tropes from the Gloria Steinem era — female teachers being fired for being pregnant, for example — that are out of date.  Warren is famous for her lies — ...........The feminist lies are especially vivid............ Sanders made several fierce denials and wouldn't let them try to change the topic; Warren made an icky speech about the importance of female presidents...............Do you notice something? Warren didn't stand by her story; she just tried to shift the topic.  She should have stood up and told Sanders she knew very well what he said, and she didn't.  She didn't defend her claim at all.  Sounds like another whopper.  
4. Klobuchar on Iran negotiations.......... 
3. Joe Biden's Mess of Answers on Foreign Policy:......... 
2. Warren's sudden concern for fiscal discipline: ..........  
1. Bernie Sanders's concern-trolling about all those administrative costs connected to medical care as it is and how he's supposedly against them.............To Read More.....
