This is a live presidential debate thread.

[castlebrew]

yep.

"odierunt, dum timerunt" as the Romans put it...

[dirtbiker]

O boy just got field dressed by McCain!

We need about 10 more of these....

[KavMan]

The 1st part about the financial crisis McCain needs to watch that YouTube video Burning Down the House. That’s the part i didn’t think McCain hit Obama on!

[go-ken-go]

yea, thats what i thought!!! ‘oh, pluzzee’, was a great memorable line..... Barnes is a -—— moron for not catching that.

[Shermy]

The problem is... there are literally millions of voters who are just plain ignorant and love to hear just the sound of Obama’s voice. His idle platitudes and empty rhetoric are exactly what they like to hear... no substance, thus no need to think. And the literally bow down and worship Obama as their god. -———————

I agree. The “focusing on Iraq” thing is stupid, but people have had that crammed into their heads for years by the Democrats.

barry got knocked the **** out!!!

Yes, but he was a great actor and I met him once on a train in Europe. He was liberal but a nice person. He was not as bad as brando.

Cool! Did you meet Brando then? Tell me about it...

I’m now kind of worried about Sarah... Doesn’t Biden know about as much on Foreign policy as McCain? I hope she’s being prepped good.

[DocRock]

"Doesn’t Biden know about as much on Foreign policy as McCain?"

Relax... Sarah has one of her babies in Iraq. That will give her the edge.

[castlebrew]

not to endorse hijacking a thread, but GCS' portrayal seemed pretty close to Farago's and D'Este's works, by my reading.

He was in Europe filming “The Day of the Dolphin” and was on a shooting break. He was traveling coach and I was walking down the isle and he looked me in the eye. I smiled and he smiled and I walked over and introduced myself. Bought him a scotch and we chatted for a few minutes. He didn't hate America like so many do today... he was just drawn to the PC of the issues of that day. He was gracious and happy to talk with a fellow American. I am thankful that chance allowed me to meet him.

I never met brando and really don't care. I talked to him once over ham radio... he owned an island in Polynesia and he was a licensed ham... but that was before he went totally boinkers.

Obama looked smooth, calm and cool as he often does. McCain smiled more often than usual (maybe Governor Palin is rubbing off a bit), but looked like the man who really cares and has all the passion, as well as the experience. He did better than I thought he would. It will be interesting to see how he came across to the undecideds.

[IGOTMINE]

Krauthammer is calling it a tie.

I’ve just lost some respect for the Hammer. This was a clear, CLEAR McCain win.

[LibLieSlayer]

krauthammer has no perception of reality... I have now written hin off... and he has said that obammy won... I now despise krauthammer!

LS

[LibLieSlayer]

krauthammer is a liberal... he is mesmerized by obammy... he is a cultist... who would have thunk it. I guess charles is a member of Jews for allah... because obammy supports iran and not Israel.

I have always had a feeling that Bill and Hillary would be voting for McCain. They know an empty suit when they see one. Besides, it is in their best interest to do so.

[castlebrew]

and Luntz is totally in the tank

[Volunteer]

Why do Obama and Bidden keep calling SEN. McCain “John”?

[LibLieSlayer]

They think it lessens them looking like arses when attacking him... as in “My friend John... is wrong on blah blah blah”. McCain does not like obammy... calling him Senator shows he is no friend of obammy’s.

because familiarity breeds contempt...
