if it'll shut you up then i guess i did.
You know that won't shut me up, but thanks for admitting you missed it.
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/10/...lin/index.htmlCountless folks have said that we all know McCain, and it's necessary to scrutinize every aspect of Obama. Really? I think if you ask the average person, they'll know a lot more about Obama's childhood than McCain, solely by the level of scrutiny.
The truth is, the nation doesn't know much about Palin. And when folks don't know a lot about you, there is an expectation to get to know more. As for Palin, I fundamentally believe that millions of Americans want to know what she thinks about the critical issues of the day and not from reading cue cards.
The McCain camp has done her a huge disservice by treating her like a Faberge egg, totally untouchable. She needed to do multiple media interviews and not keep an arm's distance from the media and, yes, the general public.
when bush remained calm during 9/11 he was a dumbass according to the liberals.
Uh....sitting doing nothing after someone tells you, "we are under attack" isn't remaining calm. It's being a ing moron and not telling the classroom you need to leave.
Being stupefied is not the same as being calm.
was he supposed to duck and cover?
He was supposed to be our Commander in Chief.
he did. he remained calm and then later bombed the outta afghanistan...
tell me.. what would you have done in the same situation???
Were I told America was under attack, I would have thanked the kids and excused myself.
It's ok. He bombed the out of Afghanistan. That war was over pretty quick right?
I also would have had several cabinet meetings about terra before September 2001 and would not have dismantled the counterterrorism effort that existed before I took office, but I'm silly that way.
And do what? Twiddle your thumbs while you wait for more detailed information to come in?
He didn't panic or rush suddenly scaring the kids. He collected his whits, and a few minutes later, addressed the nation from the school.
You know, it does take a few minutes to set up the live feed and pre-empt all the stations for a live speech!
I see you never saw Farenhype 9/11 where the Sarasota elementary school principal, Gwen Tose-Rigell,
tells all the truth of the matter.
Thank you for proving my point Republicans.
I think too much is made of what Bush did immediately after being told the news. What we should all be focusing on is what the he did militarily after we got attacked. He invaded Iraq. That was completely inexcusable.
So let's see here....
You're defending Bush's intelligence... the man who doesn't know how to pronounce the word, "nuclear"... something that every President should be intimately familiar with...
And yet you question Obama's intelligence.
...
I have no words for how ridiculous you are.
At least I am not a liberal lemming that believes what other people say when it supports my dislike for another. They are lying to you. Although president Bush uses an uncommon pronunciation of the word, unabridged dictionaries show both forms since the 40's or 50's. From an on-line dictionary:
Read this too, it is the exact on-line text of an older Webster's New International Unabridged Dictionary I have.Though disapproved of by many, pronunciations ending in \\-kyə-lər\\ have been found in widespread use among educated speakers including scientists, lawyers, professors, congressmen, United States cabinet members, and at least two United States presidents and one vice president. While most common in the United States, these pronunciations have also been heard from British and Canadian speakers.
I have also read a reference in the past that explains the way president Bush pronounces the word is technically correct when discussing radioactive materials. In the 40's, it became away if distinguishing them between "the nuclear material of living cells."
There are several words pronounced two or more ways. You see nobody from the right being stupid about how some liberal may pronounce a word.
Leave the room and find out what the my staffer meant by "America is under attack."
But hey, that's me. You'd make excuses for Bush if he pulled a gun on those kids.
I thought there was definitely an opening at this point of the debate; Palin didn't pounce on it:
That's great, Joe. Now, again, why is that your's AND Barrack's record? Looks like you got your ticket upside-down. Palin should have pointed out that each of those accomplishments were Biden's; Obama hasn't done anything substantive.
