The Second Presidential Debates

Audio tape of John McCain: You know who voted for it? --- Might never know. --- THAT ONE! [points disapproving finger of blame toward Barack Obama!]

Randi Rhodes: THAT ONE!? Holy Crap! First he couldn't look at him. Couldn't look at him in the first debate. Then he couldn't say his NAME - in the second debate. And then at the end of the debate, and this is why I watch it on the Span. This is why I GET UP out of my chair and I turn my TV off -- I turn it -- THEY ARE THE ILLUSION! I AM REAL! --- TURN IT OFF!

[allusion to movie, Network] And put on the Cspan, and I saw that McCain would not shake Barack Obama's hand? He wouldn't shake his hand. So what do we have here? We have a guy here who wouldn't look at his opponent throughout the entire first Presidential Debate. Presidential being the key word HERE. A man who is offering himself up to BE the President of the United States of America, couldn't look another man in the EYE -- who is also running for the presidency. In the second debate he COULDN'T SAY HIS NAME. And he couldn't SHAKE HIS HAND?

At the end, Barack Obama put out his hand to shake John McCain's hand, and John McCain pretty much used Cindy McCain as a human shield, 'cause he likes to use the women as human shields. [allusion to Sarah Palin's red-meat terror speeches]

From Randi's Blog:
Brokaw didn’t even catch a new RESCUE plan proposed by McCain. Suddenly McCain, a man who has steadfastly opposed bailing out homeowners, wants to bail out homeowners? [McCain calls it a homeowner's resurgence]

Obama is steady. Obama is smart. Obama is honest and he loves this country. Obama also knows what you feel in your gut. The beginning of the solution for America's decline must start at the bottom and make its way up to The Treasury. A foreclosure crisis requires a foreclosure solution.

More about that here and Randi's debunking of McCain lies:

~~~~~~~~translation~~~~~~~~

Wait a minute. . . . In the last few weeks we have seen the present leadership of this country totally FAIL in leading this country we so dearly love! We have not only seen total economic ruin for many (not counting "empire hussies") we have seen the Bush/McCain regime strike OUT at the American People with divisive and violent rhetoric!

Which has led Maureen Dowd to start speaking in strange Latin tongues in order to make the sense out of "Tu Betchus" woman, "Sara Palina, barracuda borealis" ---- God Bless the Passion of the Dowd:

Vilmingtoni, in Ohionem, McCain’s Mean Girl (Ferox Puella) defendit se gladiatricem politicam esse: “Pauci dicant, O Jupiter, te negativam esse. Non, negativa non sum, sed verissima.” Talk about lipsticka in porcam! Quasi Leeus Atwater de oppugnatione Busii Primi ad Dukakem: “non negativus, sed comparativus.”

In other words . . .

Time for . . . . . . . Dancing!

That One Can Dance!!


Remember? When Obama sang at the GOP Convention?

Below is song Obama sings to McCain's Conventioneers. Looked like they had never heard a song about loyalty, honesty, and commitment? No, no "shock and awe" war talk. Just love.

Never Gonna Give You Up

(Rick Astley)

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment is what
I'm thinking of
You would not get this from any other guy


I just want to tell you how
I'm feeling
Got to make you understand

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you.

OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA! (After the singing and dancing was over, McCain lost some votes and didn't know it.)
