October 8th Bush/Kerry Debate
Someone on CNN said that GWB was "forced" to say "Iraq" 10 times. He went on to say that Kerry said "Iraq" 11 times. I can't remember how he phrased it, but he was making the point that Kerry wanted to say "Iraq" and Bush was forced to say it. Sheesh.
I hadn't heard that he lost a son...I think he has daughters, but am not too sure.
Yes, the MSM hates and envies Fox News and wants to destroy that network. We need a conservative billionaire to buy the network and keep it going with no liberal bias. I believe within ten years the internet will essentially replace TV news and conservatives will then be on a level playing field with liberals. But in the meantime we need Fox News to stay fair and balanced.
I LOVE your PLAIN talk. LOL. Laughing so hard my sides are hurting. I have a PLAN. I have a PLAN. He's been planning since he was born but it gets no further than the planning stage. Geez, what a sissy. I always see him wearing his tutu and ballet shoes, saying, I have a plan. What a sissy girly man.
GOT WOOD! Let's send Kerry a giant bottle of Enzyte.
Well, what a night. I hope this will serve as the re-energizing kick that we've been needing to get out there and fight for the Pres. I don't think even the media can spin this as a win for Kerry; no one's going to buy that. Bush's "slide" had stabilized the night before this debate as polls were starting to indicate, I think it's a very real possibility that he'll start to creep up again in the polls. Worse for the Democrats is the fact that now one of their possible last resorts - the draft - has been snatched away from them, between the House's near-unanimous knockdown of the Rengel bill and the President's comments tonight. What's that leave for the Democrats? Well, we can't know; could be anything still out there, but they're probably going to be in a bad position now. Keep up the good work and the fight for the right cause!
Colmes needed a comb... bad hair day

You are Tommy Chong & you are a DEVIANT...I admire that!
Drug companies have a two tier price system. They sell to goverment buyers in Europe and Canada drugs at a far cheaper price than they charge in the US, because in Europe and Canada there is only one buyer (monopsony). Thus the US drug consumers subsidize drug research for the planet, including the almost as rich as the US part of the planet. That costs US drug consumers billions and billions per year. A law needs to be passed that prohibits drug companies selling in the US from having a two tier price system, except based on cost savings from volume sales. When that happens, the prices of the two areas will tend to converge, or Canada and Europe will have to do without cutting edge drugs.
That will happen eventually, but we really can't afford to wait too long, unless we want socialized medicine. Drugs are what medicine is more and more about. More and more, docs are just pill pushers, which just goes to show the miracles of modern drugs, and why their use is so horrificazlly expensive, and medical costs are threatening to eat us alive. It is time to slow down the flow in that direction - now.
And Bush is not in the right lane on this one. He's driving indeed on the wrong side of the road. And that is a fact.
Is that man scary looking, or what!?
I just saw Edwards running down the street chasing an ambulance, Kerry was looking out the window with his bandage on holding up his new purple heart. Must have been one heck of a fight.
The President fought for his job last night. It was Kerry's turn to be rocked on his heels.
It's a lot of hard work. Good people have been working hard. He should pull a Saturday for once. He can take January off.
This is a different guy.

ping!!!!!!!
I disagree, with all the left-biased television out there, a right-biased one would be the only real "balance". They wouldn't have to lie(leave that to the liberals),just present the news objectively and then do the editorialising from a conservative viewpoint. The rest of the media already has the liberal viewpoint covered.
Really.......LOL.
Rove was great on Hannity & Colmes!
