Watching Cheney and Edwards last night was like watching my wise grandfather argue with my snotty self involved cousin. Lets face it, the general public barely know who these guys are though. The thing that ticks me off the most is the way Edwards and Kerry keep saying "we will do this and that" with no details on how. Their whole campaign is based on vague soundbites.
Best zinger of the night was from Cheney on why Edwards and Kerry voted against funding the troops, explaining that Howard Dean was winning in the primaries based on a anti-war record, so they decided to cast an anti-war vote. Cheney went on to say "Now if they couldn't stand up to the pressures that Howard Dean represented, how can we expect them to stand up to Al Qaida?"
Best overall analysis of the debate is at Frontpage and RealClear Politics.
CBS has decided to delay the memo investigation in order not to affect the Presidential election...(pause for laughter) REALLY??? Because they sure as hell had no problem trying to do that WITH the memo.
Funny quote of the decade:
"You bet we might have"--Sen. John Kerry when asked if he would have gone to war with Saddam Hussein if he had refused to disarm.
Funny joke of the month: "Forbes magazine came out with their list of the 400 richest americans.....and this year there are 50 women on the Forbe's richest list, or has John Kerry calls that, his little black book."--Jay Leno.
Funny quote of the day:
"If I could only go through the ducts and leap out onstage in a cape--that's my dream."--Ralph Nader on crashing the presidential debates. tes.
I would pay good money to see that.
