You noticed that too? I coulda sworn it was Bell Labs in New Jersey, but I’m just some old white guy.

I think he was talking about the world’s biggest garbage dump, DARPA-NET, which begot ARPA-NET, which begot Algore’s wet dream, the Internet. Prime example of private vs. public sector “innovation”.

I think some folks who are complaining about how McCain's doing are just listening and not watching at the same time. Listening and posting here causes (me anyway) to not give full attention to what is being said.

McCain is doing good, for the most part. He has stumbled a bit, but he is connecting with the folks in the audience on the stage, and making sense for the most part. I think that is good - because he is also connecting with folks watching.

Obama is a cracker. A low-sodium cracker.

THAT ONE

[CedarDave]

bambi just laughs it off...I’m sure he will lie now.

Obama has an air of arrogance about him. He does indeed think of himself as "The One."

[NOBAMA in 08]

AMEN!

[vamoose]

Obama’s trying to run out the clock. Glad to see he’s going into a prevent defense. Attack John!

[tioga]

THAT ONE.........I love it.

[NoLibZone]

Yes.

He said a bunch of government scientists invented the compute so they could communicate with one and other!

He thinks the net is a computer.

[Stentor]

i’m a political junkie and yet i’m itching to watch my project runway episode instead.

World Series of Poker for me.

[Boagenes]

He’s letting Obama get away with everything, he doesn’t sound angry, he doesn’t sound like there’s any fire, and he isn’t hitting him on any of his lies.

[kabar]

That’s not representative of the nation.

[DeusExMachina05]

I never thought Id say this, but I found a democrat I loathe more then Bill Clinton.

Obama is not even likeable in a “rogue” way.

[COUNTrecount]

A green job is when you collect money without working.Like welfare.

[Brown Deer]

lol, it’s not “that one”, it’s “the ONE”

[ladyvet]

I agree! Screw climate change and green issues. We have serious problems here. Meanwhile China sits back and is the worlds biggest polluter but is given a pass.

[wardaddy]

memphis is majority black

it is the capital of the Mississippi delta afterall

[mylife]

Chaching!

[Cracker Jack]

One more lie. The computer was NOT invented by a group of government scientists. It was invented in the basement of the physics building at Iowa State College (at the time) in 1939 by Atanasoff and Berry.

Is there a truth squad following Obama?

[JFC]

The TROLLS think we don’t know who they are but we do and we are not taking their stupid talking points.

We support MCCAIN/PALIN nothing less will do!

[Terpfen]
