Thread: McBama Debate

And please. Listen to both of them talking about earmarks. Didn't they both vote yes on a bill for Mental Health, which was actually this Emergency Economic Stabilization Act?

I did hear that. Sounded out of breath. It was right at the point he was throwing mud at Obama. I'm getting tired of the mud slinging. Seems like that's all McCain has left.

That's all he's doing. It's pretty crazy.

By the way, did anyone catch when Obama said that we need to coordinate with other countries financially? Sounds like a plan to get closer to a world currency. N.A.U.?

It's you.

Listen again. He was definitely breathing hard from about 25 minutes onward.

What was with McCain calling Obama "that one"? He did it 2 or 3 times throughout the night. As a plus, Im glad to hear that McCain pronounces Nuclear with 1 "u" instead of using the neocons dialect with 2. Since when did he want to rewrite mortgages based on current values? I can't imagine how much more money that is going to cost...

Obama wasn't on the top of his game at this one either. And if it weren't for the opportunities created to counter the blatant McCain misrepresentations, I don't think that he did nearly as good a job as the previous debate.

I didn't enjoy this format as much as I did the previous debate. The lack of interaction was very artificial given how much they wanted to interact. I really want to see a debate style boxing match between the 2. They both want it. Hopefully next week will bring something close.

The debate was terrible. I blame Tom Borkaw for his question selection. Out of 80 people in the town-hall, there had to be more interesting questions submitted.

What a waste of time.

Yep. How about that question from someone, asking about whether we will respect Pakistan's sovereignty or will we invade their borders like we did with Cambodia during Vietnam. I was certain she didn't come up with that question! Did you see how intently she had to read it? If it was such an important question to her, wouldn't she at least have an idea of what she was asking? Who in the world would ask that kind of question? The purpose of that question was to put in your mind that we've mixed borders before, so it's supposed to normalize it in the public's mind.

Snoozefest. Well what do you expect only time McCain going to be exciting is when he chases kids off the lawn from one of his 9 homes ("Hey you kids! Yeah you! I'm talking to you....). One of those types of mean old men always looking out the window -angry-while your playing some ball game in the street in front of his house.
Heck the Palin speech yesterday when the audience had a bit too much knock wurst and beer and looked like they were ready to burn some books in a bonfire was more enlightening.
Speaking of.....
... here's a howler-a golden oldie guaranteed to make you crack a smile and wonder what they were thinking. Who needs Tina Fey when thye real thing is 3 times funnier.

Please post your address and city here.
We'll send 50 screaming, ill-mannered kids to come hang-out in your yard and in the street out front. You might change your opinion.

We'll also pay your next door neighbors to board some non-obedience-trained dogs in their fenced-in backyard so they can bark at all hours of the day and night.

I thought it was an excellent question and 100% meant to reflect reality and the American Mentalitiy.

I took her question to mean: 'Will you blatantly disreguard the property and culture of a population different from our own and seek to destory them (even in total disregard of Internationl Approval - or with clearance from the Security Counsil)

OUR FUTURE PRESIDENT made it clear. We will destoy the one we should have destoyed to begin with (and his organization). We will work in co-operation with Pakistan; but if their government is unwilling (or not able) to end this matter - THEN WE WILL GO IN AND FINISH IT OFF.

Praise to Obama - perhaps the first REAL PRESIDENT who is willing to make the changes we so desperately need.
