Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, September 26, 2008

Barack Obama and John McCain clashed over the financial crisis and foreign policy in a wide-ranging presidential debate Friday night at the University of Mississippi. The financial crisis initially took center stage with a spirited exchange between the two men. Moderator Jim Lehrer then moved on to foreign policy and national security issues.

McCain won, I know because I already saw their ad bragging about it.

Oh yea, I just spoke to jesus and he told me that McSame was definately full of shit.

LOL DANNI

Hmmm. Is this a 'flip-flop' on McCain's part?

He stated categorically he wouldn't debate until there was a bailout deal.

I'm glad the debate is going forward in any case.

Whaaa?! ...the debate you say?

Is that tonight?

^_^

Be Well.

Well, I will be watching then, I would not have watched if it was an Obama Townhall.

This thread is just gonna asplode later.

Hey RCade! Better get the Drudge Gerbil some extra kibble and then make sure his water bottle is refilled.

Obama in the first round by knockout.

Tell Me something. Had Obama pulled this stunt about suspending His Campaign and trying like mad to postpone this Debate The right wingers would be declaring He is just not experienced enough to be Presidential Material. But since it is their guy who tried to pull this stunt they are making excuses for it. Doesn't this state emphatically that John McCain is all washed up??

Be Well.

You're correct, Larry.

They would've said he couldn't do two things at once. One thing they couldn't have said about Obama, that he's a doddering old fool. McCain has that one all to himself.

Sneak preview of McCain's first answer:

Ah, but the strawberries! That's, that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, and with, with geometric logic, that, that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox did exist.

Good on yer, Spud.

FF Nully.

First question!

Who would Jesus give $700 billion to?

Well, it may play well for Jowels McSame. People now have such low expectations of him that any thing even remotely decent by him will be praised by FAUX News as the 'greatest thing ever' on his behalf.

We already know that the press will dub Obama the winner. Why? McCain will offer specifics that can be attacked because he actually takes a position. Obama, who is an intellectual and moral jellyfish, will offer no specifics and offer his usual empty comments such as "I will put a team together to solve this crisis," "I will work with both sides of the aisles to solve this (note: he couldn't do this for the $700B bailout), and the equally empty "We need change."

Pseudo-intellectuals love Barrack Obama so his lack of specifics give the dumb a "fill-in-the-blanks" position so every liberal can feel that Obama represents their view.

(in the debate tonight....echos of the Bentson/Quayle VP debate)

OBAMA: "I knew John McCain. John McCain and I worked together. John McCain was a friend of mine. You, Senator, are no John McCain"

Poor McCain-- as if being nicknamed 'Ol' Yellow Stain' wasn't bad enough. ...

Maybe Obama will tout his dreams to still have Saddam in power in Iraq with his upstanding sons beside him, or maybe Biden's dream to have never fought Desert Storm to liberate Kuwait, you know, after all, this debate is about their glorious foriegn policy expertise!

Hey Celisary the "drinking game" hasn't started yet!

yer cheating!

"Did I already answer that I was a POW yet?"

I propose the following drinking game:

1 drink when McCain says:

a) My friends
b) Maverick
c) Reform

2 drinks when McCain says:

a) POW (or any version thereof)
b) War on terror.
c) Change

3 drinks (or more) when McCain says:

a) Terrorists
b) Lobbyists (keeping them out)
c) Bailout

Darn I forgot the popcorn and I'm not sure I've got enough booze in the house for this debate :)

Don't whine to me facts are facts and them's the fact fellas! Bin Laden would be fully funded with Iraqi oil revenues if your genius Obama were in charge, just ask anyone with common sense. And hopefully someone who also doesn't need foul language to try and give an intelligent perspective.

~GeniusBoyPack

Actually, GeniusBoy, the only folks who ever fully funded Bin Laden were Rtards back in the day.

The whole "AQ in Iraq" meme was brought out by rethugs in order to a) Continue confusing people as to the nonexistant link between 9/11 and the Iraq War and B) To deflect from the fact that the Iraqi resistance movement ot the illegal and unjust occupation is mostly homegrown.

Them's the facts

You wouldn't recognise a fact if it bit you on the ass.

Excellent pre-debate preparations. You only need some popcorn to throw at the screen.

"I am finally and absolutely convinced. If this dumb puppet gets into office, this talking point-talking head, then The United States would be better off with Vladimir Putin in the White House. I'd rather see Putin be president than this dummy broad."

I am guessing that both candidates will say something nice about Ted Kennedy at some point during the debate.

Conservatives starting to panic about Palin

Prominent conservatives are finally starting to realize that an unqualified half-term hockey mom from Alaska might not be the best choice to be a 72 year old heartbeat away from the presidency. Here's the brutal roundup.

Kathleen Parker:

It was fun while it lasted.

Palin's recent interviews with Charles Gibson, Sean Hannity, and now Katie Couric have all revealed an attractive, earnest, confident candidate. Who Is Clearly Out Of Her League.

No one hates saying that more than I do. Like so many women, I've been pulling for Palin, wishing her the best, hoping she will perform brilliantly. I've also noticed that I watch her interviews with the held breath of an anxious parent, my finger poised over the mute button in case it gets too painful. Unfortunately, it often does. My cringe reflex is exhausted. Palin filibusters. She repeats words, filling space with deadwood. Cut the verbiage and there's not much content there.

Understand now Dipshit?

And Vermin, why is McSame so desperatley trying to put off or cancel the VP debate? Please explain.

For those raising the issue of McCain dying while in office.

Medicine has improved since the 1800's. Since then, other than assassination, just FDR croaked in office (cerebral hemmorrage). And he was in his fourth term.

Oohrah-
If your point is that we shouldn't worry that Palin Presidency is a frightening thought to anyone who actually cares about this country, I'm not sure it's working.

Yes, Obama did. He ran like a obedient puppy as soon as Bush called him to come join McCain. LOL

" Since (the 1800s), other than assassination, just FDR croaked in office (cerebral hemmorrage). And he was in his fourth term."

And how many were 72 when they took office?

Oh, that's right...none.

Anamerican-
McCain tried to cancel the debate, even saying he wouldn't go until a deal was reached. The Obama campaign basically said, "we can walk and chew gum at the same time; the debate goes on".

A deal has not been reached. McCain will be there.

"Yes, Obama did. He ran like a obedient puppy as soon as Bush called him to come join McCain. LOL"

You sure are a dumbshit.

After hearing the Palin interview, I must admit that she and Biden are equal - both talk too much and don't know when to stop.

"Yes, Obama did."

FANTASY ALERT!

Simple question:
When McCain said he wouldn't go to the debate unless a deal was done, did he mean he wouldn't go to the debate unless a deal was done, or he'd go to the debate even if a deal wasn't done?


"Yes, Obama did. He ran like a obedient puppy as soon as Bush called him to come join McCain. LOL"


You sure are a dumbshit.

#91 | Posted by nullifidian at 2008-09-26 08:19 PM |


Did he or did he not go to Washington after he said he wasn't going to go to Washington?

Anamerican-
Palin is incompetent, and doesn't say anything when she speaks. Did you actually watch her interview with Couric? It was painful. She's in way over her head.

AnAmerican - I am sure you would be more than happy to say "fuck you" to President Bush if he called and asked you to attend a meeting correct? Particularly if it was a meeting that you suggested holding in the first place right?

Betelg, have you really listened to Biden lately?

Did he or did he not go to Washington after he said he wasn't going to go to Washington?

Got to love the Right Wingers trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear but lack pockets to piss in nor boots(Mucklucks) to pour it out of. Funny Dat Be.

Larry

Anamerican is trying to conflate the two.

McCain said he wouldn't go to Mississippi, and he's going to Mississippi, which---of course---means Obama said something wrong.

And it looks as if they are doing both.

McCain looks foolish. He blinked.

"Did he or did he not go to Washington after he said he wasn't going to go to Washington?"

No. He didn't say...oh fuck it. Why do I waste time arguing with morons like this.

No, litlebrit, he said he had told leaders in Congress to call him.

Danforth-
Well, obviously, if McCain said he wasn't going to Mississippi, then Obama MUST have said he wasn't going to Washington! LOL
I paraphrase what Obama actually said: We have airplanes. We can fly to Mississippi and then fly back to Washington if we need to.

"If your point is that we shouldn't worry that Palin Presidency is a frightening thought to anyone who actually cares about this country, I'm not sure it's working." - BET

Two different issues. One is whether one thinks Palin is OK to be VP - and possibly POTUS.

The second is the "possibility" that McCain will die or get too sick to complete his term. I was attempting to show that it's highly unlikely to happen - short of an assassination. Now if you want to argue whether a POTUS is likely to be assassinated (and you're not) then I'd contend you'd probably think it more likely for Obama to be offed than McCain.

Re-election fears, payback drove House GOP bailout revolt

Democrats have charged that the House Republicans' revolt against the bipartisan bailout plan was a ploy to help Republican presidential nominee John McCain by giving him a mess to clean up. As it turned out, McCain's high-profile eleventh-hour intervention achieved nothing. Still, the political reality behind the House Republicans' action is much more complicated than the Democrats' charge.

www.mcclatchydc.com

Anamerican-
Where do you get false bullshit like "Did he or did he not go to Washington after he said he wasn't going to go to Washington?" , and where do you get it from?

And why do continue to listen to the purveyors of such obvious nonsense?

Oorah-
Did you watch the interviews Palin did with Gibson and Couric?

If not, you should. She hasn't the slightest clue as to what she's talking about. I actually felt sorry for her, and that's saying alot.

Must go prepare myself for the debate. Enjoy.

"...then I'd contend you'd probably think it more likely for Obama to be offed than McCain."

Hey Sarge--
Maybe Obama will have learned something after doing about 12 MOCK debates with some guy talking like McCain.

_______________

Betel--Obama said IF they need him they could call him and he would be anywhere at anytime. But he wasn't going to DC.

Then he got the call from Bush--telling him to come to DC. Obama got on a plane right away like a good little snot should.

So what are the rules of the 101 drinking game?

"fter Barack Obama and John McCain stop talking on the debate stage Friday night, their surrogates will start spinning. But one high-profile supporter of Mr. McCain will be missing: his running mate Sarah Palin.


Spinning on behalf of the Democrats on Friday night will be Joe Biden, Mr. Obama's running mate. He is expected to appear live on NBC, CBS, and CNN immediately following the debate, representatives of those networks said on Friday. "


What!?! Palin can't handle it?!?

" Obama got on a plane right away like a good little snot should."

Shameless, aren't you?

What would your spin have been had Obama said "no"?

AnalAmerican gives a whole new meaning to the phrase: A Special Kind of Stupid

biden will be out of it by the second week of october. any bets?

"biden will be out of it by the second week of october. any bets?"

Sure...how much do you want to lose?

Not Couric, other than the "gotcha" part about McCain's voting record.

More of Gibson's, but not all, to my knowledge. I rarely ever watch network television except for pro sports. There is very, very little I ever care to hear from network television.

NEWFLASH: Palin aides are defying subpoena's regarding the investigations into wrong doing in Palins administration......Why does this sound so familiar?...

Fair warning, I have had a couple of Heineken lites thus far this evening. I am going to be moving onto the Harp in a few minutes, things could get silly from here on out.

McSame's voting record? 95%-100% with Bush, why do you ask?

Did Obama announce that he was going to join McCain in Washington in his announcement saying he wouldn't agree to a delay in the debate?

No

Did he go when Bush called him?

Yes

You can't spin your way out of that.

1/2 way through my 2nd 6 pack of talls.
Plus I'm enjoying some of the NorthWest's finest and biggest export crops.

Ditto. I'll take that bet, Nanc. If Biden drops out I will post "I'm a fucking moron," without any other comments, 30 times on Drudge. If he doesn't, you will post the same.

Deal?

AnalAmerican: Can you provide the proof that "Bush called him"?

Plus Nanc has to sing all of her posts for a week as Biden's Bitch

sign

McCain will brag and lie. Obama hs made his bed with Wall Street, as he is required to do.

The bailout is nothing but another giveaway to the rich (what you righty tighties call evil Socialism). It will hurt the 65% of the population that can least afford it the most. AND IT WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

These fuckers plan to move the money overseas and leave the country high and dry. LET THEM FAIL. NO ONE EXCEPT THESE PAPER SHUFFLING LEACHES SHOULD GIVE A FUCK.

I'm going to be sick. Time for a joint.

Biden isn't going anywhere.

Neither is Sarah.

------------

Dan--Obama should have gone when McCain went. It's called leadership.


-----------------

Null--I am in agreement with you on Sarah --She needs to get out there more. She is better than what has been seen thus far. Maybe it's nerves--but that would go away with more interviews.

Even if she was talking 20 minutes on talk radio, the stations tonight after the debate, more would be better.

(Now don't be shocked)

The McCain camp is now saying that he is "tired" and has not had alot of sleep because he has been working on the bailout. Guess they have their excuse cue cards ready to go.

Let's see if the Debate goes here...naw, not possible:>)


Ten Things You Should Know About Bush's Trillion

Dollar Fleecing Plan

Call it extortion. Every American is told to ante up $2,000--an estimated $700 billion in all--to bail out the banks from their bad bets, or they'll bring down the entire economy.

In a speculative frenzy that allowed the Masters of the Universe to pocket millions personally, the banks filled their coffers with toxic paper that no one wants to buy. Now they sensibly don't want to lend money to each other, since no one knows if the other is solvent. So they go on strike, and threaten to trigger a global depression, if they don't get rescued.

"Dan--Obama should have gone when McCain went. It's called leadership."

No it's not...it's called a political stunt. Neither he nor Obama served on any of the committees or are up to speed on any of the pertinent issues. Injecting Presidential politics into the mix is a desperate attempt by McCain to seem relevant. Swooping in at the 11th hour is an insult to those on both sides of the aisle who actually did the legwork.

I'm surprised the Messiah obeyed Bush. So out of character for him. LOL

Thanks for proving my point. Explain how you arrived at "came runnin like a puppy" when Bush called him?

Both have to Presidential and both have to be likeable.

What's the official thread for this debate? This one? Or the headline thread on the front page?

Bush invited him and he came running like a puppy.

"Dan--that's your spin--"

Riiiiiiiiight. I'm telling it like it really is, and you are desperately pretending McCain had any leadership role in this.

Look, it took all of two days for the guy to do what he promised he wouldn't do...why did he lie to the American people?

Never mind. Rcade changed the title.

Watch for hidden mics.
