Re: The VP-Debate
McCain has been a maverick for change? Bullshit.
I am really starting to hate the word maverick. If I never hear it again, it'll be too soon.

Don't worry, Biden's hammering McCain's supposed "maverick" record hard now.

Oh god, wasn't is estabilished very early on in the debate that McCain is indeed "no Maverick". Biden pointed out his record regarding the debate issues like five times.

I didn't know any of those details about Joe Biden.
Congrats to him not waving his own bloody shirt around.

Many thanks! These darned computers always screw me up. I calculated my first death-toll using a hand-cranked adding machine (we actually calculated the average mortality in each city block individually). Ah, those were the days.

Re: The VP-Debate
John McCain is a Maverick? So he's either a TV guided missile or a hotshot fighter pilot with lots of gay overtones and a desire to shoot down ruskies after blowing up his own plane.

Re: The VP-Debate
Has she actually answered a single question? I mean... really answered one?
I tune out and come back in, and it seems like she's using the same buzzword-laden, pre-recorded mishmash of flag-waving rah-rah cheerleader crap (mixing up the order a bit each time) to avoid answering any question.
She honestly thinks she can sound like Reagan. She thinks she can out-rhetoric Ronald Reagan.
Say what you want about his politics, but the guy was a good spinner of rhetoric. She isn't worthy to stand in the shadow of his words. Ha!

Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."
In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!
If all you want to do is have some harmless, mindless fun, go H3RE INST3ADZ0RZ!!
Grrr! Fight my Brute, you pansy!

Re: The VP-Debate
"Rein in government spending." It sounded exactly like she did on Couric. Probably not a good memory to bring up.
Yeah, I bet you want to have more "unscripted" questions like this.

Palin loves to bring up her huge Brady Bunch family. I wonder how many in America can actually relate to having a ton of kids and living in Alaska.
