Presidential Debate II Comment Thread

That was actually a decent question about how Kerry can run with Edwards, who made money based on suing drug companies, and still be considered unbiased. It's been addressed before, but most people don't look for answers.

Eh? Missed that...

It's all very well having a plan, but can you pull it off? Blair has plans, heck, I'll be damned if he could pull them off in four terms.

Senator Kennedy?

The Dark · Post by **The Dark** » 2004-10-08 09:46pm

Did he just say that Kennedy was the most liberal senator? Either he mispronounced, or I'm losing my hearing...

Come on, Bushy, give us a laugh.

Did he just call Kerry Kennedy?

I'm not sure

Is it Kennedy or Kerry

Oh, scare-monger..."liberals create government-sponsored health care"

If it would ruin the quality of health care, why does most of Europe have better health care than most of America?

Admiral Valdemar · Post by **Admiral Valdemar** » 2004-10-08 09:47pm

Woah, nasty socialist healthcare not working. Take that Canada and Britain and France and...

Just a style thing, but Bush needs to stop shouting.

Holy crap. Someone brought up his out of control spending.

Admiral Valdemar · Post by **Admiral Valdemar** » 2004-10-08 09:49pm

No shit you have a deficit. No shit you're at war. Really, Captain Obvious tonight here.

If he'd do it every once and awhile, it'd make him look passionate. Now he just looks impotently pissed off.

How about: "You're ugly and your mother dresses you funny."

Bush brought up Kerry's attendance. Kerry should say: "I'll take my attendance record in the Senate over yours in the Alabama Air National Guard."

Kerry claims Bush added more to the deficit than Washington to Reagan combined... As that adjusted for inflation?

The Dark · Post by **The Dark** » 2004-10-08 09:52pm

"You like your high premiums, you keep them..."

A bit over the top, but an attempt to attack with humor rather than just scare tactics.

I'll look; I'll also ask my economics professor tomorrow.

Now the scare tactics.

Wow... can we get verification on these quotes?

Admiral Valdemar · Post by **Admiral Valdemar** » 2004-10-08 09:53pm

Excellent, fight for the people. The 1% high-earners getting tax breaks will ruffle a few feathers.
