Why not? Kennedy had his pre-debate hooker....Barack had a couple of lines. Different outcome, though.

According to Algore, Barry should have been wearing an oxygen mask.

Wasn’t just the altitude that was high.

You may be correct and it is a good hypothesis, or perhaps he was nervous, having to recite facts and answer questions on his own without TOTUS or the press to help him, so he took something “to calm his nerves”, or it could be that he is just a lazy, dumb sh*t who has gotten by on affirmative action - that’s what I think.

Funny........I even wondered last night when he kept his head down and avoided eye and camera contact, if he was concealing dilated eyes. Another thing, his complexion has deteriorated considerably in recent months.

[Perdogg]

I am wondering if he really wants to be re-elected. Lots of pain coming I fear.

[Revolting cat!]

I thought he recited his stuff quite well. It’s just that the same old shiite just didn’t sell this time, and was expertly refuted.

[Inyo-Mono]

I wouldn’t be the least bit suprised if this proves to be true.

I think it's very unlikely that he was stoned.It seems to me that it's distinctly possible that his campaign's internal polling shows he's in serious trouble and,needing the power and adoration as much as he does,he's deeply dispirited by those figures.

[Jyotishi]

Nice article. However it will solidify his core voter base behind him. They are likely a lot like him.

[nuconvert]

I think he was tired and didn’t want to be there. He knew he hadn’t rehearsed enough

[Jedidah]

His eyes were spooky and looked dilated. He seemed to find it difficult to look forward, into the studio lights.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

“His image has deteriorated markedly with dark shadows under his eyes, sagging cheeks, and generally a hangdog look which is commonly associated with drug abusers.”

Come now! Cut the guy some slack! Barbie Voice: ‘Being President is HARD!’

*SNORT*

Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah, Hey-Hey-Hey - GOODBYE! :)

[Former Proud Canadian]

Entirely plausible.

OK, so Obama says in his autobiography that as a young man he was an “enthusiastic” drug user.

My question is, what occurred in his life to make him give up drugs?

People who smoke pot defend it aggressively as harmless. (Even Freepers here defend marijuana use). They don’t give it up unless they have a rather significant faith conversion.

I have never hear Obama condemn drug use.

[Ditter]

Interesting.

[garjog]

Here in the 60 Minutes “Punch Drunk” interview you can see first hand that the man is stoned.

Normal people don’t start giggling for no reason. Stoned dudes do.

Watch this for proof that Obama continues to abuse drugs as president. Yes we Cannabis.

Admissions, associations and history; distractions, hesitation and ambivalence all make your case. Might I add fabrications and prevarications to round out the study.

Höchst plausibel.

[Fester Chugabrew]

Mortals have their ways to cope. Too bad this man was propped up as something other than a mortal, whether by his own doing and/or that of others. I say “too bad” because being President of this country requires much. Not that the President is expected to be a god, but he at least ought to be intellectually and morally astute.

As citizens we should plead the mercy of God at all times, both upon ourselves and our land. It’s all that can carry us through from day to day. Weakness is not a bad thing when incorporated with faith, but woe to those who think they can make it on their own.

Thanks for the insightful post, one of many of yours I’ve enjoyed over the years.
