PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE #2 LIVE THREAD
10/07/08

Posted on 10/07/2008 2:01:24 PM PDT by TornadoAlley3

While the two presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama, prepare for their second debate on Oct. 7 at Belmont University in Nashville, Tom Brokaw gets to sift through questions submitted by you. In addition to queries from a group randomly selected by the Gallup organization, Brokaw will be fielding questions submitted online at mydebates.org, the site created by the Commission on Presidential Debates and Myspace. The focus of the town hall-style debate will be domestic and foreign policy, Brokaw's specialties.

Brokaw is a fool to be asking 5 part questions and asking them to be answered within 1 minute of discussion period.

Just listening to O is sick.

MCCain: LAST President to raise taxes during tough economic times was Herbert Hoover.

Right NOW is where McCain should hit him with “wealth redistribution” and “people who pay nothing now, do you want to take money from others and HAND IT TO THEM?”

Obama has no honour: He can not stick to the very rules he helped create.

"Nailing jello to the wall" -- great line.

Nails him on taxes, but nobody knows about Hoover (oops).

We could be seeing 1992 again.

Bush #1 was saddled by saving and loan collapsed created by a bill signed by Jimmy Carter back in 1980.
Back in 1980 the collapse was started and it got big during Bush #1.

Today Bush #2 is suffering the handy work of Bill Clinton who from 1993 on pushed selling loans to people who couldn't afford them in sub-prime affirmative action types of loans.

Both Bushes have suffered Democrat cr@p proposals that have manifested from bad Democrat administrations.

Unless this information gets out, it will be 1992 again.

got any links to a ‘real’ Odinga fact source? I checked all day today and only came up with 1 lame AP story - I don’t think that thread has legs.
