LIVE THREAD: The 2004 Vice Presidential Debate: Cheney v. Edwards

Free Republic ^ | October 5, 2004

JUGULAR TIME:

Make the kill, Cheney. (And thanks for the great question Ms. Ifill--call me!)

[alancarp]

Edwards wants to double the 15 bil ... yeah, that's a winner.

Well, gee, you're all behind that AFTER 19 years of Kerry in the Senate without thinking about this UNTIL George W proposes this himself.

Gag - this "why I'm qualified" answer is bizarre.

[tiki]

I think I've got the SKerry-Edwards platform down pat. They are going to double spending on everything and get rid of the deficit. They're going to spend less on Iraq and do a better job.

I think Edwards just said he was going to kill terrorists! Is he going to do it all by his little lonesome?

GWEN - GREAT QUESTIONS!!!!!

THIS DEBATE IS MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST IN TERMS OF THE QUESTIONS.

[ReagansShinyHair]

I noticed that while Edwards claims Kerry won't raise taxes, he will "roll back the tax cut". Same thing in practice.

[Teslas Pigeon]

I think the one comment that came out of this debate that needs to be repeated is that Kerry-Edwards voted against funding troops for the reason of punishing Halliburton.

[JPJones]

"If you can't stand up to Howard Dean, how are you going to stand up to al Qaeda?"

Yup, that's a zinger, because there's truth to it.

[chronic_loser]

GOOD GOD!

"you have no experience"

even the moderator is eviscerating pretty boy.

[AZ Rangers Wifey]

"Edwards is slurring his words.
What's in his sippee cup ?"

I was wondering the same thing! LOL!
Wifey ;-)

[RightWingMama]

And Haliburton AGAIN!!! (I'm going to run out of beer at this rate.)

No kidding. I'm on my 3rd glass of wine.

[kingattax]

whats with ALL the time on AIDS and gay issues....these

are NOT huge issues this election Gwen.,..what a moron

[Graymatter]

Long resume doesn't equal...

Spoken like a man with a short resume, Mr. Edwards.

[Otta B Sleepin]

Gwen to Edwards: "you have the least experience of any VP candidates. What qualifies you to be a heartbeat away from the Presidency?"

WOW!

Edwards repeating Kerry's talking points - find and kill terrorists before they kill us.

[Homer_J_Simpson]

Whoa! John John just revealed new scientific information. AIDS is caused by lack of health insurance. Is this in breaking news?

[alcuin]

Well done.

[kaleidoscope]

I don't think Gwen likes Edwards either. Evens the score a bit on the Bush/Kerry debate, doesn't it?

[Shermy]

"She's doing a real good job ... this is a great debate with lots of good questions"

Except for Lehrer, the PBS-NPR types aren't prima donnas intended to make themselves the story.

[cyncooper]

Turn the tv up very LOUD and be quick.

[tame]

Edwards is going to have puffy eyes after this beating.

Edwards had his eyes swollen shut about and hour ago :o)

[God luvs America]

C'mon Mr. Veep...hit Very/Letwards senatorial record in your response...hit 'em hard!
