FlingWingFlyer on Biden:
“I feel like I just spent a very, very, very long Christmas dinner with a drunken, obnoxious, “know it all ” uncle.”
Take a message to Martha, she did well this evening. Must have read the McGurn article in the WSJ quoting Jim Lehrer: “The moderator should be seen little and heard even less.”
There’s that point, too, but once you have say 1.8 critical masses of sufficiently enriched uranium, how hard is it to make an artillery tube inside a bomb casing, put a .9 critical mass hemisphere at one end, and a .9 critical mass hemisphere at the other and put a big explosive charge behind one to drive it into the other?
Your argument only addresses Biden’s specious “they don’t have a weapon to put it in”. Mine calls that into doubt, and also points out the fallacy that we’d know before they did. If they’re building a copy of Little Boy, the test will be the attack.
Israel know it. Anyone who knows the history of the run-up to Hiroshima knows it. And anyone who claims we’d know before they had a weapon is either overconfident in our intelligence capabilities, clueless about nuclear weapon design, deluded, or selling something. (In Biden’s case, I’d be on all four.)
CSPAN was entirely split screen, or perhaps I should say split scream.
Romney/Ryan just gained at least another point with women.
Women despise arrogant, condescending, overbearing assholes like Biden.
So many women have been browbeaten by such pricks at least once in their lives....such memories endure forever.
I agree, I'm totally turned off by the petulant child biden is, screaming and ranting while Ryan is speaking as an adult. Henceforth, all mentions of names biden or obama should be in lower case, because they have shown America how little and petty they are. RYAN and ROMNEY are the adults in the room, any room.
Well the Undecided have a much different take on this the either the political junkies on either the Left or the Right. They hated Biden
Interesting to note all the Leftist propaganda outlet AND ABC News were out with headlines about “Smiling Joe steals the debate” within minutes of the ending. Seems that is the pre programed propaganda line from the Obama Regime tonight.
From the “Catholic question” forward, Biden increasingly was reduced to ‘ums’ and ‘ahs.’ I don’t see how any real practicing Catholic can answer how s/he supports abortion.
Would you buy a used car from Joe Biden?
VP Joe Biden 20.29% (382 votes)
Rep. Paul Ryan 79.71% (1,501 votes)
Total Votes: 1,883
Just kept crashing.Very hard to post.
Biden kept claiming that Romney is talking about his parents.
FACTCHECK: both of his parents are dead!
Exactly. I was really looking forward to what Ryan had to say tonight. I was voting for RR anyway, but never had an opportunity to really hear Ryan for an extended period of time. And I still haven't had an opportunity to hear Paul Ryan speak for an extended period of time!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH to the debate organizers for your public service!!! Hang you heads in shame, assholes!
Obama will do his best to make Mitt the “know it all Uncle” in the next debate.
At Least Romney/Ryan aren’t drunk.
“Saul Alinsky playbook.”
I hadn’t thought about that, but you’re right.
I was thinking up excuses like has an undiagnosed mental illness, or that he had been drinking. He came off as almost maniacal.
Whatever the reason, it was absolutely creepy.
I said "Oh, that's just Joe - he's not just any old ass, he's Obama's ass".
I think you’re spot on.
Obama will do his best to make Mitt the “know it all Uncle” in the next debate.
At Least Romney/Ryan aren’t drunk.
