The Great Debate of 2008 #1

I tried to watch the presidential debate tonight. If I had to pick a president based on looks I’d choose Obama. He just looks presidential.

I said I tried to watch – I was at my desk, had my word processor open to make notes and I’ll be damn if I did not fall asleep as soon as McCain stared talking – it’s as if I have heard it all before – from Bush.

I would usually come back alive right at the end of Obama’s rhetoric. So I really did not hear what either of them said.

I finally gave up and went to bed with the radio playing the debate. I must have fell asleep before my head hit the pillow.

I woke up at the end, 9:32 exactly. I missed the whole thing.

So who won? I would guess Obama will get the highest score. I just cheated and checked CNN.com poll: Obama 67%, McCain 27%, neither 6% - 75000+ voting.

So what do I think? I think we ought to give Iraq sixty days to get there shit together and we leave – then all troops in Iraq should go to Afghanistan and clean that country up and find the 911 asshole and poison all the poppy fields.

Then we bring everyone home and drop a couple of nukes on Iran cutting them off from the rest of the world and warn all other fanatic nations that not following the mantra ‘treat all others as you would like to be treated’ would also be bombed and cut off from the world.

Give China about sixty days to get their heads out of their asses and then shut them down.

We have the power and the know how. Just as long as we keep the ‘Wall Street Brains’ from the reins of power –we’ll be fine.
