Is it me or did Bush recite the same non-sensical answers to about 4 different questions? And what was up with the eye ball rolling, smirking and shuffling around while Kerry was speaking. This isn't a high school debate, get serious for Christ's sake. Lucky for Bush he correctly pronounced the names of the world leaders. Must've done a lot of flash card practice with his advisors (although the one with phonetic pronunciation of the word "nuclear" must've fallen out of the stack).
A few of my favourites from Kerry:
"I made a mistake in how I talk about the war, but the president made a mistake in invading Iraq. Which is worse?"
"I think we need a president who has the credibility to bring the allies back to the table and to do what's necessary to make it so America isn't doing this alone, the president's not getting the job done."
He said Bush's policies could be summed up in four words: "More of the same."
From Yahoo News:
Bush was forced to spend much of the debate defending his Iraq policies against Kerry's charges that Bush blundered in diverting attention from Afghanistan and the hunt for Osama bin Laden and shifting it to Iraq.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we." —George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004

I've been meaning to say hi, so here goes. Hi.
Was drawn to your site b/c the very first post I read from you was about hockey. Not many hockey fans on this side of the coast, let alone a fellow girl!
This election monkey business will end soon. I can only imagine what kind of recounts will take place once again. Close race, because both of them... need help to help the US.
