Presidential Debate Comments

Am presently watching a replay of the debate with the sound muted and the captions on, so as not to wake Wifey. Based on body language alone, Romney seems to be doing better than Obama. I get the impression that 1. Obama should have prepped more., and 2. He seems lost without a teleprompter.

 

Here is how a liberal would explain it. "Well, in Jeremiah 1:5, where Scripture states the Lord knew everyone before they were born, notice it says nothing about their state of life at the point of birth."

 

I did not watch the debate, but saw snips afterwards. It reminded me of President Bush in the 1992 debates with Clinton and Perot. Bush kept looking at his watch like he did not want to be there. That is exactly the impression I got of Obama, that he either did not want to be there, or his heart was just not into trying to explain his record. I do get the distinct impression that this debate got the Romney campaign back on track.

 

The debate began here at 3:00 a.m. ... so I did not stay up to watch. I've read about the debate and two things that I noticed were;

Romney won the debate and the truth lost.

Only an evil person would want to kill Big Bird.

 

Can you show me where scripture says a person who wants to cut funding to the elderly in their health care and food assistance, like Meals on Wheels, can go to heaven?

 

Proof that libs live in a fantasy world.

Big Bird is a character - a big puppet - not alive - not real.

If funding for PBS is ended anything worth having on the air should be able to transition to any one of a multitude of cable channels.

 

In the avenues of the World Wrestling Federation(The WWF)---a la Hulk Hogan

Romney bodyslammed Obama----pinned him to the floor and he was hollerin' "Ya'll get off!!!!"

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

 

:laugh: :laugh::laugh: What's funny is that you're serious.

 

A picture is worth a thousand words, look at Michelle and Barack's expressions compared to Romney just moments after the debate ended.

 

It was you who lied on another thread about a 10% unemployment rate when Obammy took office!

This comment demonstrates the depth of your philosophy. It is okay to slaughter 4000 unborn babies each day but "big bird"! You should be ashamed of yourself but I have noticed most leftists are without shame!

 

And on their wedding anniversary!

 

Okay, that was awesome.

 

Looking at Michelle, I think Barack spent the night on the couch last night. :tongue3:

 

It's OK, after Romney kills Big Bird, he's going to donate the body to a poor family for Thanksgiving. :applause:

 

She's looking at John Kerry. Kerry was Obama's debate sparring partner in rehearsals. Fail.

 

General observations.

Obama looked disinterested, almost arrogant in a way, as if he were saying "how dare you challenge me! I'm the President of the United States!" A couple of times when Obama smiled his whole face lit up and he seemed likable, but he quickly went back to looking like a curmudgeon. His answers were rambling, overly detailed, almost lecturing. My wife said he appeared condescending. He seemed flustered when Romney flat out said, "I won't give upper income people a $5 trillion tax break."

Romney was energized. He effectively personalized himself with his stories from people he met on the campaign trail. Yes, I noticed the people he mentioned were all from swing states. He boiled down his 59 point economic plan to five points (thank you!) and even used my phrase "trickle down government" a couple of times to describe Obama's plan. Woo-hoo! I LOVED it when, during the middle of the debate, Romney said, "this is fun!" and you could tell he genuinely meant it.

Obama's closing statement was abysmal. He spoke in general terms about how he needed more time to lift up the middle class and then talked about how he is going to fight for the middle class. Problem is--he barely had any fight in him when he was in the debating ring!
