Hold the line.
Yes, sir.
To be able to say "Noggle," you first must be able to say "Nah."
Hold the line.
Yes, sir.
Kerry’s assuring that we’re not going to have a long term presence, all right.
How come he doesn’t address that he’s not in Congress fighting even now for funding troops while he continues to draw a paycheck to do….something.
Man, perhaps Bush would have been doing a better job after a couple drinks like the rest of us.
Kerry’s not saying Vietnam, but he’s making the shadow puppets with those hand gestures and his continual references to combat and that war.
Honoring nobility? It’s not about nobility, or honor, it’s about winning.
He mentioned some sort of cutting, but he changed his mind.
He’s going to hunt and kill the terrorists?
Bush almost calls Kerry on it in the extension, which is that Kerry said who wants to tell someone that their son was the last to die for a mistake, and apparently he would, since the Iraq war was a mistake.
Kerry’s Pottery Barn rule invocation? What’s his point?
Bush is loving the husband of a soldier? Watch for the photoshops on CBS this week!
But he’s showing humanity, which is his strength.
He continues to show a long range vision, too, with the continual reference to goals beyond getting elected.
Bush was misleading, but *I* was not misleading? Through in a French quote to tell us how smart you are, Senator.
What would be a last resort for Kerry? Another smoking ruin? A homeland so irradiated with dirty bombs that all we have left is our aircraft carriers? That’s war as a last resort, Senator, and I hope you never get the opportunity to take America to war as a last result.
Kerry hitting all placards: No alQaeda connection, no WMDs (which are coming across the border every day, that’s not a flip flop-that’s a paradox–Kerry has taken it to the next level!!!), no imminent threat that Bush would have gone into Iraq.
Well, if Iraq had been Morocco, we wouldn’t have invaded either.
We all know. We all know. Crikey, Kerry, never mind.
Perhaps two minutes isn’t long enough to get them off of the talking points.
Hey, CSPAN has the feed with both candidates on at all times. Rock on.
Bush rebutted Kerry well on the last bit, calling Kerry out for his denigration of the America’s allies in the war.
Kerry’s getting a lot of tread out of the things that the blogosphere has already pointed out are bogus. Perhaps a better debate would have been Kerry with Vodkapundit.
Kerry: They’re not dying for a mistake, and if I’m elected, they still won’t. I guess his point is a continued Bush administration is a mistake for which they should not die?
Okay, here I am.
Crikey, I’m a little disappointed in Bush’s performance so far, but I hope he’ll get better.

You know what I did? I used your schnucking product, that’s what I did.
Well, well, well. Seems that my post tut-tutting the concept of Colorado as part of the heartland has touched a nerve. First, Jared at Exultate Justi comments, and then one of his readers sends me this enlightened e-mail:
You ignorant person…
Dear Brian,
Read your post “Colorado is not the heartland” (linked from Exultate
Justi). I would suggest that you watch too much television if you think
rather small, insignificant places like Aspen and Vail as typical of my
state. Boulder? Show me a major college town that is not infested by
leftist wierdoes. Athens? Lawrence? Chapel Hill? Not!Skiing? Actually, that ‘sport’ was developed by us as a tourist trap to
sucker Texans and Chicagoans into spending their money. They also often
spend time in our hospitals after this activity, further spending money.
Sadly, many of these people stayed.Not the heartland, indeed! I am sick of all of you lowlanders thinking
that this is some kind of snow-covered wonderland (we really ought to
re-name sme of our sports franchises that reflect this misconception).Denver? typical nasty yuppie-infested big city. Colorado Springs?
Imagine Birmingham, Alabama without the humidity. We are just as normal
as any other place in the USA.
In the interest of reaching out to our poor Colorado brothers and elevating the discourse, I’d like to point out:
Courtesy of a French, or Quebecker, reader, or perhaps someone who wanted to yank my chain, Google translated my page into French today.
I think I’ll take a poll of what looks the most wrong on the page. My vote:
un “certain branleur.”
Kim du Toit,
sur la bibliothèque de Noggle.
Being berated by Kim du Toit in French.
I’m not sure to whom that’s more insulting.
At Asymmetrical Information, Mindles H. Dreck photoshops the CBS logo. Very well.
I’m flattered that everyone who has signed up for Vote or Not through this blog has so far been a woman. Wow, my blog is the babe magnet.
It’s got to be the hat. Or the vast nostril.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for signing up.
