FR Live Thread: Bush Kerry - First Debate (Pre-Debate discussion)

[Miss Marple]

Doing good with this answer about "what global test?' I make decisions based on the best interests of America.

[snugs]

Nice one Bush getting in about not willing to join International Criminal Court Bush getting in not going to make decisions that are wrong for America - good one.

[Nowhere Man]

OOOOH----KYOTO. We forgot to put kyoto in the drinking game!

Already taken care of, hic...... B-)

[Skooz]

What's Kerry saying??? I have my mute button on.

Just pick a lie at random. The pick another. You get the idea. One lie after another.

[Radix]

He feels very comfortable. I hate him...

Move to Massachusetts and get to really know Senator flip flop Kerry.

Then tell us how you really feel.

[jackbill]

I'm going right to bed when this is over because I can not bear to hear what the talking heads are going to say. My fear is that it's not going to be good for the President.

They always do. But now they have the Pajamahadeen to contend with. It's a new day.

[BigKahuna]

It might surprise you to know that most of the online sites critiqueing the debate pretty much score it a draw so far, with Kerry gaining slightly on style points.

[John Lenin]

Kerry is dead in the water on the ICC. W nailed his butt to the wall on that one.
Strike 2 Mr Kerry, one more and you are out !

[whoozit]

So what? The media has been saying that Kerry is the man for months and months. I don't think the diehard Bush supporters are going to be deterred.

As far as listening to Kerry's lies, have you heard of a MUTE button? I don't listen to a word he says. Hit the mute button and you can imagine what he is saying while his gums flap. "I'm a dweeb. I'm a dweeb. I'm a dweeb"

[hope]

Satan is a master also...Hard to say which one is better at the deception game.

[altura]

But remember, you're a libertarian! Ha.

[TitansAFC]

I am glad this friggin' debate is over in a half hour. Whoever prepped Bush for this debate should be shot.

Just get one damn sentence out without hesitating, Bush!!!

Let's hear him say "um.............................................................................we need to send a um..........................consistent message to the world." just one more time.

Call me whatever you want. "troll, blah, blah, blah........" I will be glad when this debate is finally over. How 'bout answering one of the 80 different ridiculous accusations Kerry is making for crying out loud.

I hope the Republicans have their best guys on the shows afterwards. If I gotta see Allard or Frist or some softy, I'm gonna explode.

Sorry, Guys......It's just how I feel right now. I'm getting real mad at whoever prepped Bush.

[F16Fighter]

" Bush is talking to the people. Kerry is talking to Jim Leher only."

One of Dubya's saving graces in this debate.

Dubya nailing Kerry on America passing a "global test";

Kerry also got hit for his talking about Kyoto and the ICC.

[AmericanMade1776]

kerry is going to keep his eye on the ball?

[EnquiringMind]

Bush is winning this hands down, no question, case closed.

[Kornev]

KERRY JUST LOST IT! GIVE IRAN NUCLEAR FUEL

[Ronaldus Magnus]

How is CSPAN getting away with a split screen for each candidate? I thought this was against the rules.

[hispanarepublicana]

I must disagree with Mr. HR--I'll make it up to him later
;-)
But, I feel like Kerry is a school teacher talking AT ME and Bush is talking TO ME.

[BlueOx]

Up in Minnesota we would say Kerry is a master at the SNOW JOB, or, we would call him a shmooooooooozer

[doug from upland]

I can do better...I can do better...I can do better...I can do better....... S T F U!
