THAT MEANS IT'S TIME FOR FRIDAY

FOLLIES.

THE DEMOCRATIC DEBATE PROVIDED

US WITH MORE RIDICULOUS AND

HYSTERICAL MOMENTS WE COULD

IMAGINE.

RAYMOND ARROYO, FOX NEWS

CONTRIBUTOR.

YOU NOTICED SOME TRENDS OF THE

DEBATE THAT AUDIENCES MIGHT HAVE

MISSED.

>> I DID.

THE FIRST THING WAS THE ATTEMPT

TO SUBTLY LAY CLAIM TO A

FAVORITE PHRASE OF A FORMER

PRESIDENT AS A WAY TO BUILD

STATURE.

IF ONLY THEY COULD HAVE BEEN

CLEARER.

>> FIRST OF ALL, LET ME BE VERY

CLEAR.

>> LET ME BE CLEAR.

>> LET'S BE CLEAR.

>> LET'S BE CLEAR ABOUT THIS.

>> LOOK, LET'S JUST BE CLEAR.

>> TWO THINGS BECAME CRYSTAL

CLEAR FOR ME.

>> LET ME BE VERY CLEAR.

>> Laura: VERSUS LET'S BE FUZZY

RIGHT NOW.

OBAMA ALWAYS SAID THAT.

>> HE DID INDEED.

AS WE'LL REMIND YOU.

>> SO LET ME BE CLEAR.

>> LET ME BE CLEAR.

>> NOW, LET ME BE CLEAR -- LET

ME BE ABSOLUTELY CLEAR --

>> JOE BIDEN MENTIONED OBAMA SO

OFTEN, LAURA, I THOUGHT HE MIGHT

BE RUNNING FOR A THIRD TERM.

LISTEN?

>> I KNOW THAT THE SENATOR SAYS

SHE'S FOR BERNIE, WELL, I'M FOR

BARACK.

THIS PRESIDENT HAS DONE A GREAT

DEAL.

SO I'M PROUD TO HAVE SERVED WITH

HIM.

BARACK TURNED THEISH THE

PRESIDENT TURNED TO ME AND SAID,

JOE, WITHE HAVE A PLAN TO GET

OUT, HE TURNED TO THE WHOLE

SECURITY AND SAID, JOE WILL

ORGANIZE THIS.

>> BIDEN EVEN RELEASED AN AD,

LAURA, TO REENFORCE THE

RELATIONSHIP IN CASE YOU FORGOT.

>> BARACK OBAMA IS AN

EXTRAORDINARY MAN.

>> I WATCHED UP CLOSE HIS

CHARACTER, COURAGE, AND VISION.

>> HE WAS A GREAT PRESIDENT.

I WAS PROUD TO SERVE AS HIS VICE

PRESIDENT.

>> THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED ON

STAGE, BIDEN COULDN'T RECALL WHO

THE PRESIDENT WAS?

>> I HEAR THE LARGE -- THE

PRESIDENT SAYING -- MY FRIEND

VERMONT THINKS THAT THE EMPLOYER

IS GOING TO GIVE YOU BACK IF YOU

NEGOTIATE THE UNION ALL THESE

YEARS?

HE CALLED BIDEN -- HE CALLED

SANDERS THE PRESIDENT THERE.

THE POOR MAN.

I -- MY HEART ALWAYS BREAKS FOR

HIM.

HE'S SO EARNEST.

>> Laura: WAIT A SECOND.

HE'S SO EARNEST?

>> HE IS EARN E

>> HE IS EARNEST.

>> Laura: I KIND OF LIKE BIDEN.

I HAVE TO SAY.

>> HE WANTS IT SO BADLY.

THE BLOOM IS OFF OF THE LILLY

HERE.

>> Laura: THE GLORY DAYS ARE

DONE.

THE SPRINGSTEEN SONG HAS PASSED

YOU BY.

>> YEAH, A MOMENT.

>> Laura: THINGS WENT OFF OF THE

RAILS FOR BIDEN WHEN HE STARTED

TO OFFER PARENTING ADVICE TO

LOW-INCOME KIDS.

>> PLAY THE RADIO.

MAKE SURE THE TELEVISION --

EXCUSE ME, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE

THE RECORD PLAYER ON AT NIGHT,

THE PHONE -- MAKE SURE THE KIDS

HEAR WORDS.

>> Laura: THAT ANSWER TO A

QUESTION.

>> THIS WAS A PIVOT FROM A

QUESTION ABOUT REPARATIONS.

AND HE WAS TRYING TO GET TO HIS

PLAN, WHICH IS A HOME VISITATION

PLAN WHERE PEOPLE COME IN AND

HELP KIDS -- TALK TO THEM, GIVE

THEM LANGUAGE.

SO HE WAS SAYING PUT THE RADIO

ON,

>> Laura: I'M HERE FROM THE

GOVERNMENT, I'M HERE TO RAISE

YOUR CHILDREN.

NO THANKS.

>> IT'S PART OF THE AFFORDABLE

CARE ACT.

THEN THERE WAS BIDEN'S

UNFORTUNATE UPPER PALATE ISSUE.

OH.

>> FOUR MONTHS AFTER SANDY HOOK,

A MEASURE TO REQUIRE BACKGROUND

CHECKS DIED ON THE SENATE FLOOR.

IF YOU COULDN'T GET IT DONE

AFTER SANDY HOOK, WHY SHOULD

VOTERS GIVE YOU A CHANCE.

>> I GOT IT DONE BEFORE.

I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT'S EVER

BEAT THE NRA.

>> POOR MAN, I HOPE POLIDENT ARE

THE NEXT SPONSORS OF THE DEBATE.

THERE'S KAMALA HARRIS WHO LOOKED

LIKE -- SHE WAS VERY RELAXED.

>> Laura: SHE 45D A COOL WAY

OF -- IT WAS KIND OF A --

>> SHE HAS ADMITTED TO SMOKING

WEED.

>> Laura: OH, SHE WASN'T.

WE'RE JOKING.

SHE LOOKED --

>> I'M JUST SAYING.

>> Laura: SHE ADMITTED THAT IN

THE PAST.

>> WATCHES IT, VERY RELAXED.

>> DONALD TRUMP IN OFFICE ON

TRADE POLICY.

HE REMINDS ME OF THAT GUY IN THE

WIZARD OF OZ, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU

PULL BACK THE CURTAIN, IT'S A

SMALL BOOT.

>> NOT GOING TO TAKE THE BAIT.

>> I WOULD SAY, HEY, JOE,

INSTEAD OF SAYING THAT WE CAN'T,

LET'S SAY YES WE CAN.

>> SHE WAS REAL LAID BACK LAST

NIGHT.

>> Laura: I THOUGHT SHE WAS

PRETTY GOOD.

>> YOU THOUGHT KAMALA HARRIS WAS

REALLY GOOD?

WAIT A MINUTE, YOU JUMPED ME FOR

DEFENDING JOE BIDEN, EARNEST JOE

BIDEN AND DEFEND KAMALA HARRIS.

>> SHE'S ALL OVER IT.

>> WIZARD OF OZ.

>> I LIKE THAT.

I LIKE THAT.

IT'S LIKE A SLOW ROLL.
