Bush just brought up Libya. I was waiting for that.
He lives in seclusion in an undisclosed location in Iraq.
Taking lessions from Cheney I see.

Oh Kerry brought up outsourcing and mercenary use in Afghaistan all at once.

And then talks about 'outsourcing to Afghan warlords'.
People don't like the word. It has negative overtones in the US. By using it to descibe the warlord use, he ties Bush to outsoucing companies or at least tries to.

Hmm... now Kerry seems a little better on point and making Georgie sweat a bit.

Kerry's kicking Bush on Iran and Korea. Oofe.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

Oooo, Kerry says the President has the right to preemptive war. Interesting. Wonder what the looks on the peacniks look like at the moment.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

I know it has a negative connotation here (I live in the U.S. :-p ), it just sounds like a weird use of it.

War of any kind is bad in their opinion. Even Kerry knows better that to attempt to appease those that far to the left.

I'm waiting for one of those "Do you think ___________ or ___________ ?" to be answered with a firm "Yes, and that's all I have to say about that."

"The global test!" Our credibility and leadership in the world is at stake! *gasp*

Okay, the "Global Warming Treaty" was a bad example.

"You take preemptive action to protect the American people"

Probably a complete distortion of Kerry's position, but it was a good hit.

He just kicked him in the ribs with it, really. A good verbal beating on that one.


Bush seems to a lateral, and brings up the WCC.
