Tonight's Debate

I am dreading this evening's "debate", because things I have heard over the last few days make me think the "debate" has already been rigged to support Obama and hurt McCain:

a. The Governor of Mississippi has stated (on Thursday) that the debate will go on, even if McCain does not show up. Isn't this like saying "We have a winner" when there is no contest?

b. The debate site (Ole Miss) also indicated that the debate would go on, even if McCain did not appear. SAME COMMENT!

Is this the kind of "debate" KenH wants? One with no opponent for his candidate? I personally agree that I would like Obama's teleprompter to break, since then his puppet-masters cannot feed him the things to say. Let Obama speak for himself. Let McCain (who has now agreed to be at the debate) also speak for himself. DO NOT allow teleprompters for either candidate. Let's see and hear who the real presidential material is!

On a side note, which is more important? (1) Trying to do one's current job when something needs to be done, or (2) Running for the office of President of the United States. My choice? Number (1)!

Bill :godisgood:

 

We'll see. I betcha Obama already has been fed the questions. I agree with billreber.

 

I predict, Obama will use the same old tired spin about Iraq.

I predict, Obama will try to blame all the banking crisis on the Republicans, even though, as I pointed out in another thread, it was the Clinton administration that started the ball rolling at the behest of special minority groups to extend to them mortgages they could not afford.

Okay, here we go, Jim Lehrer is holding his breath.

 

My contribution to the muse

Sarah Palin and McCain
are soon to expire
when they feel the pain
from headlines of the
latest National Enquirer

McCain will drop poor ol Sarah
and turn to Huckabee
for a war on Terror
against you and me

In the End Dobson will pray
for a miracle election day
his minions will gnash teeth
in pain
as Obama just blows them away
and Dobson will get his rain, and
more rain, and more rain.
Until he just floats away:godisgood: :wavey:

 

2nd musing:McCain forgot his flagpin ruut rooh!

On stage for millions to discern
Obama stands tall looking you
square in the eye
He prays for Gods will then
a confident touch on the stars and stripes
McCain looks down as if confused
and wants to win
but then he realizes
He is not wearing his
Flag Pin

 

Obama's advisors got it right finally after Obama was caught on video not saluting the flag or wearing a flag pin, too little too late.

McCain doesn't need to wear the stars and stripes to prove who he is. He served his country under them along with all the other brave soldiers.

 

Well thank you LE for speaking to me. So far, the only ones that speak to me on this board are the ones I offend. And I am tired of offending folks.

For a while I thought I had one of those "double seacret bans" where everyone knew I was banned except for me. (like the double seacret probation in "Animal House")

Oh well, when I have 8,000 posts, or else, maybe sometime I have really profound to say, then maybe I will be recognized.

Lighten up KenH started this as fun!

I think you are not getting the theme of KenH intent here, was to have some poetic musing, perhaps write one, instead of attacking mine. Golly! lighten up and don't get frustrated actually write something.

 

AJ, a lot of what you say is profound (usually because I agree with it, lol).

 

I think there were two debates tonight. One on economy and one on foreign policy.

Thy each won one part...

Barack made a huge mistake when he kept saying McCain was right. That sound bite will haunt him until Nov 4th.

 

If you have a football game on the schedule and one team doesn't show up who wins? Both Obama and McClain were in Washington today. They can go back tomorrow. It will be interesting to see if mcCain does that. That will tell why he threatened not to show up at the debate.

 

Proof? Why do you come up with these kinds of statements?

I hope you're right, they are saying McCain already has a commercial with all those agreements strung together.

 

More than how you act in a debate. It's how an effective statesman works with the loyal opposition. I'd agree that a hack politician would never do this. They would claim it shows weakness.
