Who won the debate?

I'm not so sure. These old, white men all seem the same to me.

I feel like we got some honest answers, but I'm not satisfied. The answers I got weren't the ones I wanted to hear. I knew that coming in, though.

Some things just make no sense to me: why should homosexuals in the armed services have any different rights than heterosexuals? What place does the government have to regulate what happens within the sanctity of marriage? Why should immigrants be treated vastly differently than American citizens? How can we justify the use of torture, even though we prefer not to talk about it? Why should the government have the right to decide the fate of a woman's pregnancy?

To me, these questions have very simple answers.

And, apparently, I'm the only liveblogger worried about the consequences of cutting our space program.
