Uhh, that’s your terrible & presiding president, “George,” with the sparkles. What’s his importance tonight. No one knows. No one knows why George Bush isn’t LOCKING THIS CRAP UP for Barry Obama. Who won this debate? Let’s see what the teevee pundits say, on CNN. Once it ends which will be never.
10:34 — Uh, they’re still talking? Barack Obama wants to be the next not George W. Bush.
10:34 — McCain, being a cock. “Barack Obama does not have the knowledge or experience to win the Iraq. The Surge, he was wrong.” Nah, he wasn’t. And if this election is decided by THE SURGE then everyone should just inter themselves, into hell.
10:35 — Obama: “My dad was from Kenya, which is where I got my name.” Ah, so Al Qaeda was based in Kenya. Who knew! Go Amin!!!1!
10:37 — DRINK 9 DRINKS AND HAVE 40 VICODIN, John McCain just talked about when he “got back from prison.” He was in jail? Did he rape a wombat?
10:39 — OVER!! McCain says, “good job John,” and then cuts his tendons.
10:40 — Alright, we’re watching CNN. Who won? Someone please answer, because we were not even conscious and have to write a liveblog.
10:41 — People basically say, “eh, some people did their thing and other people did theirs.”
10:43 — No one has any idea who fucking won. Alan Keyes. Alan Keyes won the debate.
10:43 — Oh ho, now we go to the “Partisans’ Panel.” Meaning Wolf Blitzer asks a bunch of party hacks what they think. Oh look at that, Bill Bennett thought McCain won. Hmm!
10:45 — Just turned on MSNBC and all I see is some map showing viewers in like Madagascar. Hooray! MSNBC is poop. OH AND NOW they have commercials too. Oh crap, T. Boone Pickens. Why do we have to watch him now? WHERE IS CHUCKY TODD. Wants to c his man boobsz.
10:48 — No one knows what happened. So! I am ending this. Ken may or may not take over. OPEN THREAD until then. Go out and play with your friends, is my recommendation.
DUDES: Your Wonkette will be at Finn McCool’s in D.C. (8th Street SE) in like 15 minutes (11:30). We don’t expect any of you douches to show, but if you want, look for the asshole with the red hair. LATER. Gonna get me some fish ‘n’ chips.

Should have made Walnuts snap! Too nice.
I once dated a guy who wore a jacket that sparkled that way… emphasis on the once. Somehow, W seems to make it work!
sweet jesus. wow. that picture is just.. wow… i’m tripping, right? none of this is real, right? just tell me i don’t have to stay in this room. right now. just tell me i don’t have to stay in this room.
I would say that this video pretty much sums up McCain’s campaign thus far:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbcggJmCTnA
Swiftboat Willie!
From one vet to another, FUCK YOU MCCAIN. You’ve never given a flying fuck about veterans.
Nice closing words from Obama. “Broader strategic vision” than Bush.
McCain basically agrees.
Jesus, does George Bush have any friends left?
McCain says he’ll take care of vets. By voting down increases in their benefits.
Ah, Senator, but your VEEP needs on the job training!
Walnuts! loves the veterans? Isn’t that frowned upon? I guess five and a half years can do that to a “man.”
I would say that this video sums up McCain’s campaign thus far fairly well:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbcggJmCTnA
I think Walnuts! just tried to compare Barry to Bush. wow.
Neither one is going to let the other one get a last word. This thing is going to go on forever until the sun implodes. Barry picks this moment to remind everyone that he’s a Muslim Luo tribesman.
WhooHoo! Finally we get to hear that McCain was a POW!
Ugh! He did it! He pulled the POW shit out at the very end.
Note to WONKETTE: STOP with the Blingee.
Please.
The veterans really weren’t badly treated after Vietnam, you liar.
I’m just waiting for the big sloppy kiss at the end.
the debate was about never using blingee again. that had about as much staying power as Palin did to any rational conservative.
And McCain ends with FIVE AND A HALF YEARS.
That picture looks just like the guy who imitates Bush.

I’m still amazed at how Crazy McCain was totally afraid to look Obama in the eye. Or even the package. WTF? Why wouldn’t he look at him?
McCain is a coward. He’s a-skeered of the big black man!
It, it’s over??? But Mac didn’t ask Barry to sing one of those old negro spirituals.
…WoW, Cindy has on almost as much make-up as WALNUTS!
i’m repeating this: sorry. it just pissed me off so much.
big fat old liar liar liar! maccain hates all veterans because none of them have suffered for FOUR AND A HALF YEARS like “he” has.
Nice track suit, Cindy.
“I know how to deal with our adversaries and I know how to deal with our friends.” Well, John — thanks for explaining that in such detail.
But the Surge! Come on, the Surge!
Dear God, I thought Palin repeated herself a lot.
Gwen Eiffel will do a much better job. Be scared, Sarah! Be VERY scared!
It’s over, Yay!
Oh it’s Cindy McCain — hiiiiiiiiiiigh, Cindy!
[re=112347]OhGodNo[/re]: Oh, but it’s soooo sweet!
How dare Obama top McCain’s pissy anger with Hope!
Obama plays the alpha male by walking into McCain’s half of the stage first. I thought you were supposed to let the weak and infirm walk ahead of you?
[re=112362]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: he had lip gloss, no?
Damn, Hope shot down with downer POW story.
“i can heal the wounds of war”
*lol* WALNUTS! is jeebus-complex
Oooh, Nicole Lapin. Did you know Lapin is French for rabbit?
Yeah, so do you guys think McCain won?
Barry totally won. Enough for this. Time to get dressed to go out drinking. Let Friday begin!
What is up with Cindy’s hair? Is she back on the painkillers?
I am crying inside!!!! Tom Brokaw is looking old, what’s with the cancer on his temple. He’s saying that Obama was pussy for not linking McCain to Bush.
I would like to note that McCain was the guy standing in front of the Walter Reed Middle School for much of his convention speech.
McCain won every segment when he said, “Obama don’t seem to understand…[fill in blank]” and Obama lost every one where he said “DaNuts is right about that….”
No overall winner. No major effups.
You NEVER wear a striped tie on TV. McCain’s stylist should be fired for such a rookie mistake.
I’d say barry did damn well on security issues. Way better than he usually does. Walnuts was sentiment and anecdote.
Obama made the right move. Note how the Marvin Monroe meter dropped for teh Independents every time one of them said a nasty about the other (or even about Bush, for cryi). Teh Independents want daddy to fix everything, forever, and they want to pick the nice daddy.
Ds and Rs don’t count; they’ve all already early voted.
NBC NEWS GUY: McCain, “something about Obama bothers him”
HE IS BLACK HE IS BLACK HE IS BLACK HE IS BLACK HE IS BLACK
The community organizer in Obama makes him too nice for these debates. He has got to stop saying “John is right” or “I agree with John.” He has got to hit him hard and not let up. Even if he agrees he should just rephrase it.
I dunno, comparatively speaking, Barry’s not so hot on his feet, no?
McCain still deserves a starving wolverine up his anus.
POW!
POW! POW! POW!
Just like the 4th of July.
~
Like I said, the swings are looking for a perverse reason to dislike Obama. He took no risks tonite but dammit he knows Mac’s got strong feet on this subject.
[re=112384]loquaciousmusic[/re]: Stalemate. Which means that the guy who’s been ahead coming into the debate (Obama) wins.
Apparently Ted Kennedy had a seizure and was taken to the hospital. Yikes! I’m sure more details will trickle out in the next few hours.
…have I mention at least 600 times that I hate Pat Buchanan?!?!
Update from Fox: William Kristol – Round 1 to Obama, every other round to McCain
I’m afraid. Very Afraid. Barry didn’t deliver any knock-out punches that I can tell. He could have taken McCain to the woodshed so many times but did not. I worry that it may come out a tie. And a tie would be a big win for McCain. And most of America are dirt clods. They will see the sound bites and be all “yep, yep, McCain’s my man alrighty”. I have to go throw-up now….
Bennett is correct (I just gagged typing that). Obama was generous and McCain played his game.
Personally I thought Johnny Mac was excellent at articulating why he was against every single part of his own party’s platform, ceptin the war mongering business. He lurves the war!
In fact, he did such a fabulous job of articulating the lousiness of the party he has spent his whole life being against while part of, I’m definitely going to vote for the other guy.
[re=112407]AngryBlakGuy[/re]: Cannot be mentioned enough.
Obama needed to be stronger, and he missed so many opportunities. I’m seriously disappointed.
Are they on their way back to save the economy?

[re=112408]lastdon[/re]: Now THAT is a fair and balanced viewpoint!
Hmmm…Is it wrong to think that Diane Sawyer is pretty hawt? I’d still do her.
Barry played it like a primary debate.
NPR panel: fairly even, except McCain kept putting Obama on defensive…. Obama needs a catchphrase like the “Sen. Obama doesn’t seem to understand” because he’s getting kneecapped every time that comes out. Reagan won with the “There you go again” stuff and “are you better off now” stuff. Obama needs a fresh line…not “true dat!”….something like that though.
Giuliani is lying on TeeVee. In other news, the sun will rise tomorrow. WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIS EYEs? He’s high as fuck — the only way he could live with himself.
[re=112407]AngryBlakGuy[/re]:
What is you opinion on Pat Buchanan? Hmmmmmm?
I WANT TO STAB GIULIANI IN THE THROAT!
[re=112412]Cookie Guggelman[/re]: …just trying to cover my bases!
Wow… so where is Sarah Palin?
They brought in Giuliani instead?
Why does no one accept the city of Gnome? Why is Palin doin’ OH SO BADLY in her own state?
Just tuned in to CBS. Where did Katie Couric’s neck disappear to???
McCain wanted to make you think Obama is risky. Obama never said anything to make people nervous about him.
Donna Brazille is going to weigh herself in a moment.
In watching the pundits post debate I am convinced of one thing: Nobody has any fucking idea what happened.
[re=112409]ThatChicagoGuy[/re]: I agree. Barry was too cautious to have any sort of impact. The only thing that can save us now is if Palin drools on herself or something during the VP debate.
UGH> Some CNN guy is hitting on a point I saw. Obama kept saying John is right. John is right. UGH> OBAMA should have approached this debate like a pick up game, throw some bows and go for the hoop. McCain can’t play basketball because of his cripppled arms!
[re=112392]MathewBrooks[/re]: I think the tie was a ‘shout out” to Wonkette’s Blingees.
BTW, it made me throw up in my mouth a little.
Just so you know, the people on CNN right now should die.
[re=112420]Weeping Jesus[/re]: Agreed on McCain’s ability to make him look like the junior Senator and lightweight. He even had he audience tittering at Barry near the end. And then Barry looked pissed. You have to SMILE, SMILE, SMILE—never let ‘em see you sweat.
[re=112422]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]: …David Gregory is a DOUCHE too!!!
I am not particularly worried. You can’t win every point.
I think debates are processes by which a candidate’s supporters arrange topical issues in their own heads in real time, I think Obama’s statements reflected his supporters thought patterns – youthful and not too organized, but strongly oriented around a clear values system, mainly Walnuts is an idiot and Rudy is a twat.
Don’t lose heart Wonketeers. This is not American Idol. The most contentious guy does not make the best Preznit.
[re=112432]C-5[/re]: I agree about the drooling.
David Gergen: McCain needed a victory. It was tie. He is behind, it was his strongest subject. This is not good for McCain. That is a pundit I like. He makes me feel like Obama will win.
HAHA, Chris Wallace says McCain and Lindsey Graham are joined at the hip. That means they both do fuck Cindy.
Graham sounds like the perverted old guy in Family Guy.
[re=112432]C-5[/re]: Obama is well ahead in every electoral projection worth it’s salt. Unless McCain manages to capture EVERY independent voter, Barry’s in great shape.
Point of personal priviledge: is it o.k. with the chair if I keep on drinking?
Carry on.
[re=112438]nurple[/re]: Brilliant, brilliant post.
Note to Re-pubelikkins’ – Bush I decisively won a war and cacked it the next election. Don’t get cocky.
McCain talked about talking to the veterans who wanted to re-enlist. Damn noble of them wanting to go down with the ship of state and all, but does it not occur to him that that’s kind of a select population that may not be representative? I’d imagine they were gung-ho. Did he talk with a bunch of soldiers who were stop-lossed into a second tour? Maybe their feelings would be a little different?
[re=112442]SloppyCronkite[/re]: Graham is on the lookout for Amanda Huginkiss.
CNN internet babe has a belkin you could do Shakespeare from.
OK, sorry if I repeat anyone’s points…too much too fast and i have had 9 beers.
Goddamn these cats…hard to type with kittens on the keyboard….
While Barry made lots of touchy feely eye contact tonight, every time he spoke, Walnuts hunched over and looked at “doll’s eyes” all like “do you hear the crap this uppity SOB is laying on me, Jim?”
Also, Barry had a nice black suit with a cranberry tie (and a lapel pin). Walnuts had a thin-striped tie that pulsated on my tv screen like a nuclear accident.
Chris Matthews is saying Obama was channeling Richard Nixon….because of the eyebrows?
Holy crap — a lady from Arkansas is saying she’s leaning towards Obama after being undecided — and it’s because of McCain’s smirking and his lack of deatail. And he was much more emotional — “I wanted answers, not emotions.” I have hope.
For the record: I really, really dislike Nicole Wallace.
Ah Geez! The network have dived into spin alley.
Does no one listen to Jon Stewart. Has Carlson Tucker won the day?
I dunno who the hell this twat is they’re interviewing on CNN but the cunt needs to die.
Ah, Keith O., I luv u so.
Oberman is coming on teevee.
Olberman is on. McCain not wearing a flag pin. Why does he hate America so much?
For what it’s worth, I listened to the last half-an-hour on the radio and McCain sounded really tired and feeble. In other words, old. Of course, supposedly Nixon sounded better on the radio than Kennedy so who knows if it matters.
Biden says McCain doesn’t know the difference between a strategy and a tactic. WhooBoy! That’s original.
I guess Andrea and Chris are on together so they can
keep Keith and Chris apart.
On CNN Joe Biden just said, with a straight face, “Sarah Palin is a tough debater.”
CNN has Biden commenting, wonder if Palin is in the studio ready to go.
CNN reading campaigns’ spin.
Mac campaign said he looked Presidential. There is a “boldness gap”
Obama campaign said clear victory – forceful case for change. “Obama commanded the foreign policy section of the debate.” which is reaching a bit.
McCain campaign statement came with coupon for free pickles!
I wonder how much we’ll have to spend on the war on Spain.
Can’t escape it: Far too cautious and academic, Barry.
Meanwhile, McCain somehow fails to flame out, and enjoys another day by having the good grace to not keel over the podium during that particular bunch of 90 minutes.
I’m crawling into the bong now. Good night, folks!
Maybe some day someone will finally admit: There is no way to win The War on Terror. Well, unless you eradicate every single person who ever grew up among zealots…. or Amway dealers…. just sayin’…
It really sucks that Palin’s locked in the basement right now.
Wolf: I’d love for Sarah Palin to be joining us.
Anderson Cooper: Don’t hold your breath on that one.
Can we get Sarah Palin in Blingee one-piece?
Well that was fun.
It’s too bad Obama is going to lose.
See:
(CNN) – Before John McCain walked off the stage, his campaign already had a new Web video up featuring footage of the first debate – clips of Barack Obama agreeing with his Republican rival. On the McCain campaign Web site, spokesman Michael Goldfarb noted mid-debate that journalists were already describing that refrain as fodder for a new ad: “It’s like they have the place bugged,” he said.
Jesus on a bunk bed! It’s exactly what made me cringe! You never say you agree with your opponent unless he says, “I like women”!
Jesus:
If we had an actual foreign-affairs curriculum in this country, we could at least place the war on terra into some context. But no, everyone has to promise results. Jesus how many professors and books are there on the subject that everyone just ignores.
And love the Prince of Peace thing. Really works for you.
If Obama doesn’t dumb it down a bunch, it’s going to be a landslide.

Can they move their jaws and utter words
Oh yes, then they’re lying
I must be home for Conan, or Conan will be angry. You guys can finish my Metaxa.
True entertainment will be next week. The libs are scrambling because Obama agreed with Walnuts too often. Even Olbermann has no red meat for me. I’m hungry!!
When did everybody start liking women?
CNN’s running the tape of Kissinger saying he would negotiate with Iran. SUCK IT!
I say Barry needs to start throwing hands. Left hook to the midsection, straight right hand to the chin. Crushed Walnuts.
[re=112475]Weeping Jesus[/re]: See – this is what you get when you nominate someone who really does want bi-partisanship and a new politic in Washington. He may, in fact practice what he preaches in the debates.
[re=112450]ivenson[/re]: Ah good, so I’m not the only one suffering from McCain’s strobe tie. At least it distracted from the tumour that is his head.
All the glitter in the world won’t change George W. Bush Shit. As I said on another post, I have been shitting in a 13 gallon tall kitchen bag for about ten days now. I’m looking for investors seein as how I have shit close to 2o lbs in the tall kitchen bag and am looking to sell my shit at 300k per ounce outright and for 350k in futures. I figure if I stuff my cake hole with six or so pickled eggs and three or four bratwurst dogs complete with sour kraut and sardines along with my usual fried pork chop and mashed potatoes with green peas, my ass will be spouting new reams of money early the next morning. Here’s the best part, I have a Wall Street Bank, that’s right, a Wall Street Bank, called Shitdream. FDIC covered and endorsed by the White House. My shit don’t stink. No matter, write me a check on your pension fund or your 401k, or a personal check, mortgage your home and buy some shit. The kicker is if I’m wrong, congress will debate the cause and cure, but will never talk about the SHIT.
[re=112329]LeastValuablePlayer[/re]: That was the sixth plane he crashed
[re=112483]smashtheduck[/re]: CNN is now quoting the instant release of Dr. Killinger’s instant denial memo. He didn’t the President should meet.
So, Obama won the pageant and McCain was Miss Congeniality.
$50 bucks says that every “You’re right. John” from Obama ends up in the next three McCain Web videos.
Oooh. The Frank Lutz group of undecided bitters in Nevada for FOX went toward Obama heavily. They thought that McCain was antangonistic, while Obama came across in command.
Hell, I just have to have Dick Morris tell me that McCain won, and this might have been a rout.
happy to report back on my medz… testimony: like millions of other merkuns, my dad served in vietnam… he’s an old man now, he served in korea, too… remember that one? his kid brother died there… we’re from the south, patriotic service and all that… no, really… anyway, dad, who was wounded in both wars but still has arms n’legs he can use, says this administration–and one would hafta assume at least with the connivance of the congress–is screwin the vets royal… mom agrees, and she’s been married to him since right before he went off to that long-ago war in korea… which is still goin on, b. ‘n j. sorta talked around that tonight… good evening… take a toke fer the gipper…
It’s pretty shortsighted of the McCain campaign to cite Obama’s “I agree with Senator McCain” statements — they were ironic lead-ins to a greater disagreement. Taking them out of context is going to be easily refutable, and this will backfire if the McCain folks play it up.
I really think Obama needs to get some new input for his strategy in the next debate. The only thing I’d keep for next time is calling McCain “Tom” like he did that one time…shows how forgettable McCain is.
Well, that and he needs to find more ways to remind people that DaNuts looks suspiciously like former pro wrestler George the Animal Steele.

They got RUGBY! Wahooa. A bloodsport without pads. I’m thinkin’…
The people who are voting for Obama want him to kick the crap out of McCain, but these debates aren’t for the people who are already voting for him. He has to walk a fine line because it has been proven that undecideds are a finicky bunch, like spaz catz. They’ll be layin all out, purring and shit while you stroke their belly when…BAM they’re flippin over and dashing over the wood floor, losing traction and running into dryers. YOU MUST NOT SCARE THE UNDECIDEDS! They can scratch and leave marks that hurt worser than paper cuts.
McCain strategy: crumple paper to drown out opponent
I HATE Leslie Sanchez. Now back to your regularly scheduled programming
Finn MACCool’s. I’d walk down there and drink with Newell, but I stayed home from work with a bug and prolly no one would appreciate my germination.
Dems need some new (read: better) surrogates.
On the whole it was something of a draw. HOWEVER…
Am I the only one who caught it when McCain stated, when discussing another country (of which I can’t remember, so I’m anxiously awaiting a full transcript), something to the effect that that nation’s economy is terrible, ergo their government is obviously terrible?
From now on, Obama needs to try saying “I’m glad McCain agrees with me,” rather than “McCain is right”. Makes him seem much more like the alpha dog.
[re=112501]ihasasad[/re]: Your absolutely right. However, you also can’t let the opponent define you for the undecideds, which was what McCain was doing for time to time. Two tactics to counted such unwelcome definitions are to define your opponent back (“He won’t talk to Spain”) or to ignore the noise an have an overwhelming message. Barry did not play the overwhelming message card.
Well, I’m all caught up with “Dancing with the Stars” so now I can have a drink or two myself. I see McCain’s face did not explode yet so this means Wachovia will be feet to the sky by Tuesday. Koreans are shorter than McCain and Barry is not a Liberal at all except for liking to talk with Spain. I’m voting for the nice well dressed Centrist Hopey, my wallet tells me so.
Political nerds can get your hot fresh ringtones here! Show off your support for Obama or your disdain for McCain: http://www.entertonement.com/collections/4273/2008-First-Presidential-Debate
[re=112507]AngerBoy[/re]: Win!
– McCain, being a cock. “Barack Obama does not have the knowledge or experience to win the Iraq. He has never had the tragic experience of:
1. Bombing froggy-person villages in North Viet Nam and then receiving a less open thanks from the surviving locals,
2. Being married (however briefly in subsequence) to a an uggo, uggo gimp,
3. Choosing Sarah Palin as a running mate.” —
I believe that McSenile has a point, particularly as to … umm … Number 4.
I think next time McCain should just save everybody a little time by putting up a map of all the places he’s been to so he doesn’t have to rattle them off during every answer. Also, at times he was starting to do a “noun verb Petreaus” thing. I think McCain’s got a man crush on the General
I thought Obama was pretty hard-hitting, actually. He really wasn’t letting McCain get away with anything. Sure, he could have thrown a few zingers in there, but he got in a shot about the economy being strong, and he got in a shot about Bomb Bomb Iran, and he got in that shot about McCain voting with Bush 95% of the time, and think the whole entirely freakin’ planet groaned at the end when McCain brought up his time as a POW, again. Some more. Aneurysm. McCain kept saying that Obama didn’t understand, but I’m sorry, Obama seemed like he was understanding pretty damn well. McCain was incredibly condescending without any reason for being so.
[re=112501]ihasasad[/re]: roger that.
The big O should take those “Doesn’t understand” statements and turn them around.
Not understanding would be like mixing up sunni and shia, disagreeing would be having different ideas about what to do with the sunni and shia.
Nice to see Saul Walnuts! Tigh having an intimate moment with Ellen there at the end of the debate… I’m convinced she is the Fifth Cylon.
I think Obama did a great job of looking presidential, knowledgeable, in command.
He did not need to kick his opponent in the nutz. The “angry black man” image will not play with the stoopids and the undecided wafflers.
I’m off to figure out how I can join the EVIL LEAGUE OF EVIL. I would like to thank John McCain for giving me some ideas that may elevate me to a position of status with the Thoroughbred of Evil, i.e. BAD HORSE. Peace out, but not really
Me and the kids are checking Barry out in Greensboro tomorrow morning. I hope his hangover isn’t too bad. Biden will be energized. His hair plugs are really spark plugs.
[re=112522]President Beeblebrox[/re]: *Sigh* I HAZ A HAPPY
[re=112464]StripesAndPlaids[/re]: She’s the masterdebater. Everyone is Wasilla knows that.
Overall it was a tie, if not a slight win to Barry. But Barry has to stop treating the campaign like a Supreme Court argument. Cordiality is out… stop “agreeing” with the old nasty fuckwad, dammit!
Anyone who thinks John McCain won this debate played too much ‘debate-time drinking game’.
What’s actually hilarious is that up to ten minutes ago, the pundits were all, like, “Obama was agreeing with him too much”and “McCain did a pretty good job” and then two polls with likely voters and/or independents showed up saying that Obama won the debate decisively (CNN’s poll was 52% to 34%) and now they’re all, like, “Wow, Obama did a good job making his points and holding his own and strong and tough”. Yeah, I guess he was, huh? Plus, I think the press is pretty much done with McCain – he’s pulled that “game changer” tactic once too often, without back-up. Look Sarah Palin! She’s a maverick! Well, actually, John she’s a trainwreck with a trainload of baggage who can’t put two sentences together. Wait, Look! I’m suspending my campaign to focus on this economic crisis! Well, ACTUALLY, John, nobody wanted you there, and you seem to have fucked everything up. Oh, and every reporter has pretty much called bullshit on you suspending your campaign…while sending your surrogates out…and continuing to run your attack ads…and showing up on TV every chance you could get.
what i learned:
~wally plays left field, bats fifth and is switch hitter on the inside the senate baseball team.
~somewhere in all the places listed were the real gates of hell, so my fear that he couldnt find them is now gone.
~bracelets are in!
I drank straight through the debate… no game, just pounding. I thought Obama looked chill and McCain looked like rats were eating his balls. I thought he was going to jump over there and rip Obama’s head off and shit down his neck.
Is… is that why people are saying McCain “won?”
Hey, didn’t any of you guys notice that senile old McCain was channeling his favorite idol from his young adulthood, Woodrow Wilson? Didn’t we try this League of Nations thing after WWI and it helped lead to WWII. Oh, whoops, he called it a League of Democracies. Guess he’s looking for a way to have his own WW.
[re=112496]SayItWithWookies[/re]: by ironic you mean snarkily sarcastic?
[re=112543]duker155[/re]: Yeah, I noticed that, too, and I was thinking, dude, didn’t we already have something like that? And the League of Democracies would do…what..again?
Cool, now Matthews is giving him hell about never looking at Obama. Awesome.
[re=112397]SloppyCronkite[/re]: You’ve got it. McCain is after all a descendant of slaveowners, and he was in Mississippi and the Klan was in attendance, though not in costume. He didn’t want to look at Obama, anyway, and he knew it would play well with his fellow racists to not look at Obama.
[re=112438]nurple[/re]: Nurple, I’ve been away for a while. Help me out, it’s on the tip of my tongue, what your user name used to be. What was it?
Frank Luntz is a slobby db – I know from ‘xperience
McCain looked like a corpse. CNN needs to tone down that makeup srsly. okthxbi.
[re=112507]AngerBoy[/re]: Absolutley perfect. You are hired, baby.
[re=112501]ihasasad[/re]: According to the Audience-O-Meter on CNN you are Co-Rect. Everytime someone (usually MCNuggets) went on the attack or went negative, the all-important independent voter audience approval reaction took a dive. I guess what works for a 527 doesn’t always work for a President.
[re=112568]llyn[/re]: I recognize that avatar as our old friend “Weazel,” I think.

[re=112501]ihasasad[/re]: that is the most apt analogy to the UNDECIDEDS i have ever heard: spazy cats.
they also greet each other with head-butts and enjoy licking their own funzones.
Obama did not need to put away McCain tonight; there is too much time remaining. He peaked way early against Hillary, and bless their hearts, his crew learned a lesson. He could have imploded by being too harsh with the old boyo, and he needs to be extra-polite and even tempered, because this is America and he is black.
[re=112385]NoWireHangers[/re]: Honestly does anyone actually ever win these? I was watching BBC and it had two Americans (one Republican/one democrat) and its like neither really listened to the debate they just decided their respective candidate won.
Why do all y’all even watch the post-debate jaw jaw when you know it will just be insane bullshit from senile old turds like Wolf (I sold what’s left of my soul) Blitzer and the usual collection of network bootlicks, toadies, and corporate climbers. I can decide for myself who “won” or “lost” the debate, and y’all can too. The only way y’all can justify watching the post-game show is with copious amounts of liquor consumed, with more close at hand.
Ilyn, Lascaux: Yes, I once was a weazel. And oncet I built a railroad. I have missed alla y’all, but I didn’t get wifi in Bougainville. Or was it Christmas? Damn arboreal crabs…
Stupid Obama doesn’t say our treasury gives our money to the Sunnis not to attack our military.
The surge of pay offs won the war. If we leave Iraq now we can quit squandering the treasury.
Any voter who votes for any Republican or Democrat needs to be arrested for treason.
Ironically, I was arrested for shoplifting Ann Coulter’s TREASON.
Festooned with Christmas tree ornaments…that’s good, right?
[re=112347]OhGodNo[/re]: I’d like to see our screenpixxx be Blingee enabled. That would give Walnuts seizures.
I didn’t really mind the pink Choke ads as much as other people, but when I see it on other sites now I lose conciousness for like 15 seconds. Explain.
(And the American Apparel Slim Slacks Girl, man I’d hit that if she were a man…that was good, AA, get your act back together and buy some ad space, those toothless Consititution voter bitterz scare me)
Butt sex 50.00, butt sex with salsa and crushed taco shells 75.00, blowjob, priceless and loving.
Loved Obama’s bracelet response, McCain looked completely shocked.
O really showed some preparation on that one.
Hey I was on Face the Nation this morning I did pretty well, the only thing that I hate is these Ass Holes keep bringing up the Rogue Nations, I give not a shit what happens over there.
There is to Dam many Jews over here to worry about Israel, who cares if Iran makes a parking lot there?
