"WAAAAAH! YOU CHEATED!!!" If I heard that line once, I heard it several dozen times when I was a kid. It happened whenever my childhood friend, Monkey Moses aka The Monk who was in constant need of Anger Management therapy, would be losing a Monopoly game. Rather than accept defeat gracefully he would angrily accuse whoever was winning of cheating and then overturn the entire Monopoly board. That angry childishness is also on full display at DUmmieland as you can see in this THREAD titled, "C-Span caller finds evidence McCain listened to Obama's responses." Of course, Rick Warren himself has not only told us later that John McCain was outside the "cone of silence" in his motorcade through much of Barack Obama's disastrous appearance at the Saddleback church but also let us know that the Obamassiah had a COMPETITIVE EDGE over McCain because he told him a question in advance that he was unable to tell the absent McCain. Of course, the DUmmies are desperate to find a way to excuse just how badly McCain smoked Obama at that forum. Just how badly? Well, even the very liberal David Shuster who confidently predicted that Karl Rove would be indicted in May 2006 STATED that it was lucky for Obama that most people were watching Michael Phelps winning in Peking rather than Obama's losing to McCain. Too bad Shuster never heard of a little thing called YouTube. So let us now watch the DUmmies whine about cheating in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that cones are in the news quite a bit lately from "cone of silence" to "tropical storm warning cone," is in the [barackets]:
C-Span caller finds evidence McCain listened to Obama's responses
[With evidence like that, then I guess the matter is settled.]
Obama and McCain spent saturday kissing Christian ass. It was recorded, you can find it if you want to watch it. Part of the set up for this dog-and-pony show was that Obama would answer questions first and then the same questions would be asked of McCain. McCain was not supposed to be able to hear the questions or Obama's responses. The Announcer confirmed these rules at the beginning of the show - good choice of words with that one, calling it a "show" that is.
[When Rick Warren mentioned the "cone of silence" my mind wandered to a scene in "Quiz Show" of Charles Van Doren in the isolation booth pretending to think of the answer to a question.]
At 9:49 this morning a caller into C-Span noted that in answering one question McCain referred to and asked to get back to a question he had not been asked yet. The only way he could have known the question was part of the show was if he had either been briefed beforehand as to what the questions would be or if he was able to hear Obama's responses. Both of those things would not and could not happen according to the Announcer's opening line of crap.
[That's it. Call off the election and declare the Obamassiah the winner by default!]
Just thought you'd all like to know. I expect the replay from C-Span will be available on line shortly so the exact words can be heard and this can be confirmed. I would hope that someone from Countdown caught it and will be pointing this out to the world this evening. You can bet none of the other FOX clones will be doing it.
[Now that this DUmmie Sherlock Holmes is done, let us check out the other DUmmies...]
Republicans cheat. It's what they do. If they ran the country half as well as they cheat to win elections, we wouldn't be in the shape we're in now.
[We already have all your Diebold machines set to "R." It's what we do.]
But they lie, cheat and steal because Jesus said it's ok. In fact, it seems to be how they honor God, because they do it so often, and are unilaterally dripping with moralizing sanctimony when they do it. Wrap yourself in a flag, pound on a Bible, rob the country blind in such a way that allies are lost and innocents are killed. BE a Republican.
[BE All You Can Be. BTW, I noticed that the Army dropped that slogan right after some Gay Day March in Washington in 1993 sang a "Be All You Can Be" parody song.]
Which Jesus? The one on the miracle toast or the Jesus who sells watches on 5th and Washington? Certainly the Jesus I believe in didn't tell these morons to do the things they do.
[FUn Fact: The Virgin Mary on a 10 year old grilled cheese sandwich was on display here at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino.]
Republicans don't give a shit about Christ. They are pure and simple only concerned about two things; Money and the power that money brings. And given my admitted lack of knowledge of word by word scriptures (whose words anyway), I have to say that approach to life is probably not what Jesus had in mind when he sacrificed himself for the greater good.
[Stated the DUmmie New Testament scholar.]
I'd really like this to stay up top for a while in the hope that someone who counts sees it. Its the best us pee-ons can hope for, to point something out that someone who counts might see.
[Your request is granted. We will all pee-on you.]
I remember hearing McConeOfSilence ask about getting back to a question topic and thinking "wait - he has not asked that question yet" - but I put it off to my own fallible memory. But the truth is on the tape. McConeOfSilence wanted to fast forward to a question that had not yet been asked. This DEMONstrates that he had some knowledge of questions to be asked.
[Hypothesized the DUmmie whose brain is stuck in reverse.]
This was pre-planned to trip Obama up, and to reassure the fundies that Mccain's "got it"..
[All is going according to the Perfect Rovian Plan.]
Great point about him not seeing McCain beforehand. Willful ignorance or incompetent corruption. Make your pick. Or perhaps both.
[Yeah. Damn that Rick Warren for seeing Obama and feeding him a question in advance that he didn't give to McCain.]
Obama's staff has to get a bit wiser. Trust nothing and suspect everything, and think out what criminal minds will think of & do before they do it. Plan on it and make sure they don't get away with it.
[Obama's staff needs to develop a higher level of paranoia. Oh, and I think YOU are guilty, my little DUmmie.]
Did Cindy slip a LIVE cell phone in between her sling and cast?
[Why do you think she got the sling and cast in the first place? Hee! Hee!]
If you notice, none of the women in the audience, including Cindy herself, appear to have purses on their lap(s). If the women did have purses with them, they were probably under their seats, and it would be much harder to pick up the discussion at the forum on a live cell phone if hidden in a purse on the floor. But having a live cell phone in between the sling and cast would have allowed the phone to be at chest level and certainly high enough above the ground to pick up the discussion clearly, IMO.
[Is that Sherlock Holmes cap getting a bit tight on your head?]
Lastly, someone should ask Obama if there actually was a coin toss or what exactly happened in regards to that. This is still not clear, to my knowledge.
[Actually they played Rock, Scissors, Paper to determine the speaking order.]
Please, let this be a lesson. Also, make sure McCain isn't wired for the real debates like Bush was in 2004.
[He needs to walk through a metal detector as well as have a CAT scan to make sure there are no hidden electrodes in his skull.]
Everyone knows Bush was wired during the 04 debates
[It's going to be FUn to watch the high level of DUmmie paranoia going into the debates.]
We can not have another dummy in office.
[Since we already have plenty of DUmmies online for our comedic entertainment.]
Al Gore could have won the election in 2000 by a landslide. All Gore had to do was put his arm around bush at that third debate, and ask the putz to please remove the receiver strapped to his back used to feed him answers. That would have been the defining moment in Gores' campaign, and he could have had the Whitehouse for eight years. I wonder if this is possibly Obamas' defining moment. I doubt it.
[Obama needs to pat McCain down before each and every debate. The crotch area is an easy place to hide electronic devices.]
I don't get this - Obama admitted himself he knew the questions didn't he? He said, when asked a question (think it was about a plan to help orphans?) that he did "cheat" and did some homework on this one. It made me think he had to have known the questions or at least subjects.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
I'm not inside the "cone of silence" but I am inside the "cone of warning" for Tropical Storm Fay. On this coast, just a lot of rain and winds up to about 40 mph in gusts. The west coast of Florida is getting the brunt of Fay.
Pre-Ping!!

Oh yeah, we all know that. ;)

Hope my cousin in Punta Gorda stays safe...
A follow-up to this (if it happens) would be interesting, since Rick Warren has debunked this. There was no “cone of silence”. It’s a term he used jokingly. He had a representative with McCain from the time he landed at the airport to when he arrived at the center. Now way could McCain have listened in. At the center, McCain’s party was housed in a separate building where the live feed to Obama’s session was cut off. There were no media feeds available. Warren even went to the point of calling this a “lie”.
Will this stop the DUmmies or KOS Kooks? I doubt it. They have to have something to BELIEVVVVVVVVVE in. Facts don’t matter.
Señor Wences and his “dummy” Johnny. Yeah, I remember that as a kid. Then there was Pedro, the dummy in the box with his “Sal-right”.
That's what Hubby and I thought too. ;)
Ping to read later
Plus the DUers saying McCain asked to go back and talk about a question that he hadn’t been asked yet.
Mr. Warren said he briefed both candidates as to the subjects they were going to discuss.
“kiss Christian ass” so crude. I love sending people to DU.
[Stated the DUmmie New Testament scholar.]
Hey DUmmie, what about george $0RR@$$, the swimmer, san fran nan, The Silky Pony, Jean Francious sKerry, AlGore, the clinton INC machine, etc.? They have money out their collective @$$e$ and will do anything to keep power.
[Your request is granted. We will all pee-on you.]
Sorry DUmmie, see this FR thread.
Shuster: Obama Lucky People Watching Phelps, Not Saddleback
[He needs to walk through a metal detector as well as have a CAT scan to make sure there are no hidden electrodes in his skull.]
IIRC, wasn't algore the one who had the earpiece during the 2000 debates?
[Since we already have plenty of DUmmies online for our comedic entertainment.]
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, keep that promise to America.
[LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
Someone threw a hugh bucket of ice water on the DUmmie ant farm.
The children’s TV channel Noggin has a show called “Oobi” that has what I guess you’d call “dressed up hands” very much like that graphic. Now every time I see it I will think of “Oobibama.” Thanks for THAT visual...
Warren even admitted posing questions beforehand, although they weren't phrased the same as the real ones. He obviously didn't want it to become a stumblebum affair, or one where either candidate was embarrassed. Oops! I guess that didn't work...
