Reach.
Didn't really stand out to me, "This One, That One" who gives a shit.
You guys have this tied up. No need to nit-pick anymore.
Why should they respect each other? To keep on the long-tradition of being fake, being a politician. If I truly believed Obama would be horrible for America, I wouldn't even shake his fucking hand. Vice Versa.
That is not a reach, there are far more words in the English language to use. It almost seemed planned.
This is a fucking stretch. Like less than a fourth as insulting as that big cooched hockey mom going out of the way to stick her mouth into Biden's mic and asking a United States Senator if she could call him by his first name.
That one.
He could have said many other things. "My opponent," "him," "Sen. Obama," anything. Yet he doesnt even look at him for most of the first two debates and then calls him "that one." You may think it is a reach. I think it is like complete disrespect for his opponent.
I think an very old man who is nowhere near as sharp a toolshed tool as jackoff republicans wish he is was trying to adlib and smoothtalk in a debate to come off 'real' and that was just what popped out. I don't think it suggests anything other than that.
I think you are right that he does not respect him but what difference does it make. Dude is 70 years old. They did not grow up in a sugar-coated world.
It was actually fairly fucked up and its getting play. In a race where shit like this gets played out in the media you better believe this is going to be part of the news cycle.
Probably should have gone with the winking, 2 gun finger point and said "...this guy! Ke-chow!!!"
At least he didn't say 'That boy', although he might as well have the way it sounded.
Damn! You Obama groupies are some sensitive motherfuckers.
That isn't even the worst part of the debate.
Did you see McCain totally diss Obama at the end? Obama extended his hand and McCain backed away and pointed to his wife who shaked his hand. That was just pathetic.
Who the fuck is running McCain's campaign? I'm not used to seeing Republicans fuck shit up this bad.
Referring to a person in your immediate group in the 3rd person (he/she) is an insult, in 3 different cultures I know well. The only acceptable, polite, civil address is to refer to them by name.
otoh, McLame is so uncomfortable with the English language that "that one" could be just an awkward, wooden-tongued fuckup, but I'm pretty sure it was planned and intended as an insult.
I'm sure that millions of civil people in audience, local and TV, saw it as an insult. Addressing someone by their name is one of the lessons of politeness learned by children at the dinner table in civil families.
Just more irrefutable, inarguable evidence that McBottomGun is and, according to the Rolling Stone mini-bio I posted, always has been an adolescent jerk and flaming asshole, "failing upward" with the help of his admiral father and grandfather, unworthy McSame benefitting from his family exactly the SAME as unworthy dubya.
HUSSEIN/Biden: 3W
McLoser/pitbull bitch: 3L
Probably not as bad as it's been made out to be -- but the trick is to not do anything that can be made out to be that bad.
"the more worrisome moment of the debate came when McCain told a young, black questioner, "You've probably never heard of Fannie Mae." "
Condesceding, racist McAssHole strikes again! :lol
Little, shriveled McCracka be disrepkin, won't be touchin' on da big, strappin' nigga

Yeah, what the fuck was that about? "Heh heh, I know you darkies don't play the stock market..."Quote:

No, what's disrepectful is a bunch of AIG execs going on a nearly half million dollar retreat at a resort while the govt. is bailing their ass out. What's disrespectful is baililng out Wall Street while my 401k loses 19%.
Bottom line, my freindz, is that I will vote for Obama in a heartbeat if he can get this economy going again. If McCain were a REAL "maverick", he would've had to balls to say NO to that bailout, like the majority of REPUBLICANS did.
FUCK, I hate this election and I hate stupid, moronic, limp-dicked threads like this. Whether or not McCain is my ideal candidate is immaterial. Sure, he pretty much got his ass handed to him in that debate. But, he absolutely doesn't OWE Obama any fuckin respect. Let Obama do something first.
McCain doesn't even have the common courtesy to shake Obama's hand. What a wuss.
I don't think it was a HUGE deal, but with these types of things you need to be VERY precise with what you say, every single word is going to be analyzed...he should know that. McCain didn't even stumble over those words, that was what he intended to say. It just sounded out of place, and he could have picked several different ways of addressing his opponent but yet he chose this way...weird.
The handshake is very bothersome. Obama has not indulged in the type of personal attacks that would prompt a sign of animosity like that. McCain is acting small.
"McCain is acting small."
WRONG!
Mc5ft9in IS small (and hung up about it.) :lol
I heard that and I thought he meant to say, "that ######"
This thread is laughable.
Global economy is in a tailspin, but God Damnit, McCain called my Savior "that one" and didn't shake his hand. WAAAAA!
put yourself in mccains shoes.
think of the times he grew up in.
he can't understand why this is even close.
he can't understand why he has to go out with a black man on top.
that was disrespectful?.......how about all those millions of people that actually make their monthly mortgage payments?
This is all such a joke. With everything bad this is happening in our country and you guys want to pounce on an innocent remark? Get over it! If that's what you stupid libs want to take out of this debate - then you're in real trouble.
Obama doesn't deserve respect - he's a dishonorable man.
^and you are a hypnotizied man......I bet you would suck sean hannity's dick if he let you.
Such thin skin the libs have.
That's nothing new though.
Obama deserves better. He bled for those earmarks.
That's entirely the point.Quote:

All this is going on, and McCain (who proclaims himself as a patriot who reaches across the aisle at every opportunity) cannot even pay respect to his fellow candidate. This SHOULD be the time when politicians are willing to set aside their personal qualms for the good of the nation.
Coming from a candidate who is so braggadocios about his ability to work with everyone, who throws it in the face of the public about how much of a leader is, this seems more than just a couple of words and disrespect. It's a hint at McCain's character.
Let me put it to you this way, those of you who are parents: Would you let your child refer to you as "that one"? And if they did so with a point of their finger, would you immediately see it a sign of anything but disrespect?
Yes, it's petty. That's what's sad about the situation. The nation is in crisis and McCain doesn't have enough decency to view Obama as anything but a bug to be stomped on.
LMAO @ all the people who crucified Obama (after all, he is the messiah to you right wingers) for the lipstick on a pig remark getting defensive now when McCain clearly disrespects Obama.
And you cons want to talk about a guy's middle name? :lmaoQuote:

And what does he do right after he says all this? He refuses to shake his opponents hand. Pitiful.
in the next debate he is going to unleash the "white power!"
Well that was different obviously. Obama was making fun of their messiah.Quote:

Both guys are pretty much for corporate welfare and both are global warming catastrophist, so fuck it.
I just think its funny that Obama gets painted as the socialist and McCain hammers him as "the most liberal senator" and then goes and proposes that?Quote:

I've seen that Obama always surrounds himself with smart people, and I think those people are telling him that he needs to say these things to get elected and they're right. Obama is playing to get elected right now, and nothing else really matters because if he doesn't get elected he can't make anything happen.
But once in office, I'm sure he'd surround himself with the smartest economic minds. And I don't care what you say about Bush, his biggest flaw was the way he built his administration and how he didn't get the smartest people around him. I mean Harriet Myers? Really?
Anyway, I'm basically saying that I'm confident in Obama's ability to have intelligence surround him and help him a long the way. Even if I don't believe in what Obama says right now, I believe in his ability to get excellent advice and make excellent decisions and thats something we're severely lacking in the White House right now.

Actually, I don't fear an Obama presidency. How can anyone screw things up any more than they're already screwed up.
I would prefer that an Obama presidency be balanced with a GOP congress. You have to admit, the current group of dem slugs (Pelosi, Reid, Barney Frank, etc.) aren't the greatest.
+1 to this entirely annular post. ;)Quote:
