Debate to the Death

I’m going to watch the presidential debate as soon as it starts. If you don’t feel like catching it, I’ll report everything you need to know tomorrow… and maybe have a new Know Thy Enemy™ if you’re all good.
Later, sportsfans.

  1. I guess I ought to watch the debate, but I knew who I was gonna vote for in this election back in about 84 or so. At least I knew which party I’d vote for. I didn’t actually predict that Bush would be the man.

  2. Watching the debates…damn, I need a drink to keep from punching the tv when kerry gag is speaking. (Notice I didn’t capitalize the great pumpkin’s name…and you know how I feel about capitalization!)

  3. now that the debate has been going for almost an hour, i realize i made a huge mistake in not keeping count how many times kerry would refer to his “service” in Vietnam. i wouldn’t have believed it was possible to insert a reference in every other sentence if i weren’t seeing it for myself!

  4. Ared: I get that feeling, too. I think it’s because whenever kerry makes some asshat remark, you see Bush get all tense and pissed because most of the time he can’t either: A.) Jump over the lecturn and do some pumpkin smashing or B.) even comment on kerry’s statements because they move on to another question. It’s frustrating. And not making Bush look good since he’s kind of getting flustered since he has to stay up past his bedtime and deal with this super-dork.

  5. That was definitely a fake tan. Real tans don’t “dissapear” in 3 days. This guy is such a loon he makes my skin crawl. I have an idea…..We could use Teddy Kennedy and Howard Dean as a lever, and hurl Michael Moore at John Kerry at warp speed. It would take some doing, but Frank could draw a cartoon of it as a blueprint or something.

  6. There was a crooked man,
    and he went a crooked mile,
    he found a crooked sixpence beside a crooked stile…
    He bought a crooked cat,
    which caught a crooked mouse,
    and they all lived together in a little crooked house….
    Had to search a little bit to find that rhyme, but that is what JF’n Kerry made me think of…
    Damn, never seen him in action really giving a speech before, but he cannot talk a straight line to save his frick’n life – can he?
    How sad is that?
    It’s the Great Wishy-Washy Pumkin Charlie Brown!!!

  7. Ah,
    Just do a little mental-floss Dixie, (A shot of Jack Daniels or 1800 silver tequila – works wonders) But don’t go into the light, your kids, the Redneck & us all’d miss ya…
    if you really want to commit Hairy-Kerry, do a nice Photo-shop picture of Kerry’s face on an Orangutan and your penance is complete….

  8. Kerry said something along the lines of not letting N. Korea get nukes. Now since I’m a soldier does that mean Kerry will let me kill comies?
    No.
    And what about his supposed adding of 2 divisions?
    No great wave of new soldiers, my bet is just reorganizing what we already got and having to spend money on new unit patches so the Army looks bigger on paper (12 active divisions instead of 10, but still ony a half million people)
    Kerry also mentioned his plan on Iraq. What is it? Out in 6 months? That means that Sadr guy will rule Iraq in 7months. I heard one of Bush’s lackeys say Bush’s plan is ten years long. That means I’ll spend the next 10 years pickin’ sand out of my ass?
    HOOAH! I’m up for it!
    Kerry also said we should give the Iraqi army “faster and better training” Army training is already a crash course. The purpose of it is that when you get to a real unit you won’t be clueless when your squad leader trains you. The real training starts when you get to the unit. So “faster and better” is an oxymoron

  9. I do believe there were several occations that Bush wanted to walk across the stage and pound some sense into Kerry, and pound him some more for saying such idiotic and rediculous things, not to mention assailing Bush’s personal character (he lied, etc..). I still think we just should have had an all out broadsword fight on stage in their suits, with Bush deftly conducting a Monty-Python style ending.
    Anyone else laugh at Kerry saying “tis just a scratch” in his pompus manner?
    And did anyone else see the look one of the Bush daughters (Jenna I think) gave to Kerry? Oooo, the look of DEATH…

  10. I agree with Red Mist. The 32 page debate booklet should have included a rule that says, at the first lie, the opponent lied about can cross the stage and Texas Whoop Ass the liar. That would have cured Bush’s disgusted expression. You just know that’s what the CIC wanted to do. And plus, it would have the added benefit of putting him in a much better mood for the rest of the debate!

  11. Plus, all future debates need to include 2 questioners, as there is no such thing as an “objective” journalist anymore … I was disgusted with Lehrer’s softball questions to Kerry. If one debate has to have Lehrer for the moderator, the next has to have Sean Hannity!

  12. Or better, at the first softball and lefty biased question by the so-called “objective moderator,” the Bush girls get to pummel the moderator off the stage, and Hannity takes his place. Texas girls (or any Western girls, really) can beat a wimpy lefty journalists butt, while still looking drop dead gorgeous even without Mary Kay. Bush doesn’t need to lift his pinkytoe on that one.
