Malarkey

J0e Biden 2012

Republicans—
Mad as Hell
Joe Biden laughed.

Paul Ryan—

A marathon of mistruths,
lying, and dishonesty.

Joe Biden—

Calling him out;
correcting the record.

Paul Ryan—

Repeating the same old
debunked marlarkey.

Issues are important.

I guess the laughing worked—the general consensus is that Biden won the debate.  However, even though I strongly support the Obama-Biden ticket, I think he overdid it.

By the way, malarkey refers to untrue statements designed to mislead,  bunkum, guf, hogwash, baloney, balderdash, claptrap,and nonsense.

Update July 27, 2016: At the Democratic National Convention, Joe Biden revived "malarky."  “[Trump] is trying to tell us he cares about the middle class. Give me a break. That is a bunch of malarky."
