I didn't see the debate, but that line is pure Dubya. I'll bet he had one of his dry, shoulder-shaking chuckles when he said it. I'm especially delighted by this, because some prematurely gleeful Leftist a*#hole said on a radio talk show this week (Medved's show, if I remember right) that the president simply could not do good in a debate because he isn't quick enough and not smart enough. Hah!

It was brilliant in the fact that it came after a far out comment that the Pres. could not have even dreamed was coming. He scored a grand slam with it and people laughed.

Daily Kos just used FactCheck.org to show that 2001 tax returns for the President show $84 in income from a tiber concern (FactCheck's words).

But I just looked at the President's tax return from http://www.taxhistory.org/thp/presreturns.nsf/Returns/968A0298DD56761B85256E4400790D0E/$file/bush01.pdf and it shows the $84 in income (on schedule C) from an "Oil and Petroleum" business.

But here's the best part.... IT'S STILL TAXED AT THE PERSONAL INCOME RATE.. Which was the point all along...

DOH!

Our President did a fine job and he had many excellent ripostes (most more substantive than this woodie one). No knock-out punch, but his steadfastness and authenticity stood in robust contrast to Mr. Tereza's smoothish but truly polymorphous pandering.

Kerry is, as the Hopi were wont to say, a 'shape-shifter' ....

The President "won" the debate on the spot with three words:

"Need some wood?"
