exactly.

so jet, please tell us....what about the appearances with warren would you consider a 'debate'?

but in the end, it's a shame that candidates for political office have to pander to religious leaders like this. it's only a matter of time before a warren scandal is unearthed....like GWB's good friend ted haggard.

Exactly, hence my comment about it being pathetic.

McCain kicked BO's ass in the debate last night.
"Above my pay grade?" How lame can he be?

^Barry's just a south Chicago organizer. We can't expect too much from him. He's hollow and rehearsed.
Take away his podium and TelePrompTer and you aint got much.

McCain as much as I don't really like him established himself as a man of character, conviction and integrity.
Barry unfortunately is a man of Wright, Rezko, and Ayers.

I didn't see it, because I was pre-occupied and think any debates at this point are a waste of time.

But.....Mr. Boon.....

Can you please give specific points to help me understand your opinion?


Thanks in advance.

Obama came across as if he was answering exam questions - cool, methodical like. But McCain sounded as if he were speaking from experience and his answers had been tested in the crucible of real life. BO's an empty shell...

Er no McCain came across as mentally very tired. Obama should hire some guys to sit outside McCain's hotel every night blowing klaxons.

That makes it even worse. What point is there to post a picture of a man swimming? Does the picture make him any more or less suitable to be President?

Well, a guy his age should have been able to get up on a board rather than do some pussy-like body surfing...

Everyone knows black people can't swim.

That explains why BO is listing to one side.
It's the same reason why his jump shot is a bit unorthodox.

I'd say the photo is authentic.

OK, Warren Q&A, lefties.
I liked the three most important people -- did think the Patraeus pick was off, but not any worse tham mommy and the white racist grandma.
BO did his uhhh and ahhhh crap, as usual. What would he be like as prez without a bladdy teleprompter, like MrE said?
McCain spoke with conviction, and didn't make excuses or say sorry for his abortion stance. I was impressed. BO did nothing for himself in this round. He shoulda wrote his handlers' answers to "just in case he asks these questions" on his hand.

Obama 70%

Thanks in advance.
Does evil exist, and if so, do we ignore it, do we negotiate with it, do we contain it, or do we defeat it?

Obama: "...A lot of evil has been perpetrated in the claim that we were trying to confront evil."
He's not talking about another country there. He's talking about the US perpetrating evil.

Does evil exist, and if so, do we ignore it, do we negotiate with it, do we contain it, or do we defeat it?


McCain: Defeat it.

Says it all, eh?

I'm not sure that Lysander would have approved of any of this democratic nonsense. Oligarchy was more his style.
